Everybody is confused about how to express how well they have abused, used or dominated another player. Your communications look like pig Latin dribble with Shakespearean quips accidently interspersed. Suddenly and suspiciously you are aggravated by your perception that the object of your ire does not process your negativity as you.

I honestly loath the idea that mastery can be achieved in a field where God commands lead.

Therefore, the communications should lend themselves into gratifying spheres. Waiting for a tennis ball to come back that never was there where conception is involved is mad.

Kill the madness.

Pilot? Respectfully, I know this trick you're using, using elaborate wording and complicated structure to make sure people know you're smart. My antecedent made a habit of it.

The problem is, it's only really effective when you're also using it as a filter. If a lot of people can't fully understand what you're saying, you don't have to juggle as many debate opponents.

Otherwise, respectfully, the point of communicating is, well, communication. You seem to be aiming for a larger audience, and not really looking for a fight, so ...

... maybe give clarity a try?

What is Shakespearean? By the use of spear, I'd assume some kind of strange battlelanguage? Pig Latin, what is that?

And who are these players, what game are you refering to? I can only assume you mean other pilots in the 'great game' of the warzones, or the expanse of nullsec, but again I have no idea from this post.

Sir... I think you need help.

My employer did offer psychological, physiological or spiritual assistance.

Strangely there's been no response at all.

I think he's trying to call for more positive discussion here.

... though ... I'm not sure, actually. Either he's trying to sound erudite by using difficult language in a poetic way, or ...

... um. Or maybe something's wrong with his translation software.

Or else this didn't mean much to begin with and I'm glitching my own pattern recognition, looking for shapes in an empty fog of words.

Say what you will of learned tongues, sir. I argue that it is a little bit the fiddle, but lots more who holds the bow.

No, I'm not that kind of doctor.

Mr. Ephesianos;

Maybe each "player" lives in a unique world, a private world different from those inhabited and experienced by all other humans. . .

If reality differs from person to person, can we speak of reality singular, or shouldn't we really be talking about plural realities? And if there are plural realities, are some more true (more real) than others? What about the world of a Vherokior mystics or an Amarr Monk?

Maybe it's as real as our world. Maybe we cannot say that we are in touch with reality and he is not, but should instead say, His reality is so different from ours that he can't explain his to us, and we can't explain ours to him. The problem, then, is that if subjective worlds are experienced too differently, there occurs a breakdown in communication ... and there is the real illness.

Perception of ones world also acknowledges correlating realities, dependable similarities of factual reality. The beholder can empathize or remain ignorant. Ignorance is the disease.

To know that you do not know is the best.
To think you know when you do not is a disease.
Recognizing this disease as a disease is to be free of it.

Something to the effect of the stage is the 4 empires and were all players in the empire's power struggle game forgetting our parts in it? We're missing our ques to exit stage left until our next part or something? Sorry, if that's not it I'm a little confused by your meaning to say the least. Don't mind me, my heads a little hazy from the last few days...

Ugh
