When I sit down to start playing EVE and I suddenly need to poop. It happens quite often, right as I log in. I think EVE Online might be a laxative.

Only fix I can think of is to buy a laptop.

In EVE? Nothing. It's a game. I play it for fun, and because the real world is too insane to deal with, sometimes.

What makes me angry are things like sexism, racism, ableism, homophobia, transmisogyny, and corrupt governments.

lately lags + mechanics around it is what makes me mad. I understand internetz and all thus stuff. But why CCP made huge part of the game based on fast reactions and spammed buttons - i don't understand.

When i undock and see my session timer already on half it means i lost 5 seconds (let's say i'm trying to catch somebody and he already in warp by the time i see environment).
When i jump system, press 'warp to' and then need to spam my modules because 'module cannot be activated because the initial cloaking is still active'. Damn.... My ship already half in warp!
I'm sitting in alpha-nado. Target goes out of warp. I start to SPAM lock. Sometime i even complete the targetting and then 'target is invulnerable'.

I'm really not sure that many players spamming buttons make servers happy. Why it is really needed? I dunno. But it is what makes me mad.

A ship that comes out of warp is always going to be invulnerable, whether the server lags or you lag or the internet lags or the pope dies. It's just how that works.

I'm mad that I spent a lot of time and isk on getting into a carrier to skynet with it, and about the same time I can finally sit in the carrier, skynet gets removed. Now, I have a carrier that I don't have a use for other than a glorified hauler. In the time it took to skill into a ship that's not almost useless to me, I could have trained up for another race's T2 recons, and trained for links, and trained multiple T2 gun systems.

I just got the bad luck to train for something CCP was gonna change (and didn't give us much warning about/"typoed" about). Doesn't mean I can't be pissed about it. How long till they make fighters useful and carriers cool again?

hmmm didnt realise carriers could only be used for skynet have you tried being on grid with the carrier or is that too risky for you?

And don't get me started on anyone using the phrase "I could care less" (It's not a "localisation", It just straight out means the complete opposite of what you are trying to say. Don't do it, it's wrong. Utterly and completely).



Aralyn...

Right on. I was about to post the same thing. I cannot believe the number of people who write loose when they mean lose. I see it EVERYWHERE even in what should be edited news stories...

Not really mad about it but attributes and learning imps are the most annoying things followed by sec hits in FW plexes for my current playstyle.

There's rarely an op that gets run in FW space where a carrier is used in it's logistics role, and I don't particularly have an interest in doing logistics in it. And I might be willing to put it on field, if it wasn't extremely vulnerable to a Snuffbox, Sniggwaff/PL or Spectre fleet drop. Plus the fact that bringing it to field would be more risk than it's worth, since the same job can be done with cheaper, more mobile ships that can enter medium plexes whereas the carrier can only operate in large plexes, or outside of plexes. Large plexes are unique in that they're deadspace pockets, so that would be one of the safest places to operate it if the reality of the situation wasn't that carriers have ineffective prop mods for doing anything other than moving a few kilometers a minute, and again I can get the same effect for much cheaper and much more mobile ships.

There's no reason for me to undock it when I can get the job done cheaper and more effectively with a T2 cruiser.

You don't fly anything larger than a Vexor.

But no, please, do tell me about how risk adverse I am. You certainly know about the risks that come with using expensive ships, don't you?
