Hi there...--> Hello

I bought a drake this morning.--> mm, okay...congratulations..
Well, was good fun for a while, I mean, I did shoot some thing, man was great...--> Ok...and?

Well, here comes the bad s***t --> OK, I'm listening..

I met a titan --> It's possible, sure...

Yea Sherlock, it is, but wasn't fair ! --> What exactly wasn't fair?

Well, first of all it's too big ! --> Well, it is big indeed, it's the biggest ship in th...

Will you just listen to me? I had to scroll out too much and by the time I did that he killed me ! --> Yea, they usually kill fast smaller ships..What you suggest there?

Well, first of all can you make them same size as my drake? --> I'm afra...

Shut up! Not finished here! make him small...and it can never ever hit me again! --> It's a Titan, sir, it's big and strong...

Do you copy anything I say here??? --> Yes sir, I'm listening...

Should be a month or so since I started to play, I will get to max level soon I guess and fly a Titan ! --> I'm afraid this is not like other games...

What u mean? --> Well, you train in real time..

What's that? --> I mean, you need years of training to have a good character and fly many different kind of ships...

OMFG, OMFG !!!! years? I wanna fly it today ! --> Sir, I'm afraid it's not possible..

ZOMFG, WTF !!!! OK, OK...then make sure some things ! You make that titan small...It can never hit again my almighty drake and...and...make it look good, that's all...No there is more !! Paint it, make it look shiny, their pilots should be happy with that...It's a titan, so what??? years of training bla bla bla... NERF IT NOW !

End of Part 1

(After the patch, when Titans and SC's are nerfed)

Hi there again --> Hello Sir
I gotta say WOWWWW ! --> ??

I love you CCP !!! --> Er....Thanks, I guess...

Today I been around a titan again ! --> OK...

Geee...I have to say I love what you did to them...hahahaha...it's so small now...Tried to hit me but I was orbiting the noob, could not touch me even once...Then I fired at the little thing...I got him into hull in a few seconds and the b...tard ran off...Finally, my dreams have come true, my uber drake is the best ship in the game ! --> Well, yea, many complained about why a 70-80 bil ship is more powerful than their 50 mil ship...We listen to our customers and do what they say...

Good, Good !! Listen to us, yea !

Epic Conclusion :

Communism is back. If you can't fly a ship, make sure you cry and whine on forums about that. NERF everything you can't fly, boost everything you can ! How in the world a Titan should be able to hit anything after all? It's just the biggest and powerful ship in the game, nothing more !

Can't wait to see SC's and Titans nerf, I will trade my Titan for 2 drakes and my 2 SC's for another 2 drakes...Thumb up !

I miss the original DD weapons.
Titans haven't really been the same sense.

Just from the OMG factor it was epic.

Titans have been dead for a long time.
SC were raised from the dead and will most likely return to the dead.

Even if it was and or does need to be done.
It still makes one sad to see them go.

But such is EVE, suck it up and adapt.

Eh, there's a faint hint of stupid in them tears. (The communism comment.) It's enough to ruin the flavor (and texture,) IMO.

Delicious tears, BOT...That's all you can come up with ?

OK, please take a step forward and move in the drake pilots area, now !
