Apparently he doesn't know about adblock.



Adblock? What's that? The spelling and context implies possibly something the Talocan may have come up with. Please tell me more. My research requires it.

Does wearing women's undergarments while playing Eve count as role play? Or is that just a sign you a really sick puppy?



Dummy. We're naked in those pods. Thus there's only one way to roleplay when playing Eve: naked in a vat of green Jello.

OK to be honest I never did that. But freeballing should still count.

It's a sign of exquisite taste.

Also, all this talk of adverts on the internet is making me nostalgic.

Dusettes always wear underwear, afaik.

I apologize for the post. I have changed my clothes and put my wife undies back were they belong. So glad she is at work. But, I'm okay now. No... really I amRoll

Civil discourse is uniquely human. After all, when is the last time a pride of lions and a herd of water buffalo negotiated SOV over a watering hole? Never. Someone either gets their ass kicked or eaten. At the end of the day someone holds SOV.

So here is something that's always struck me as a little odd. EVE is such a large and diverse universe with players being able to do just about anything they want to. So how is it I've never come across roleplay? It's not like there isn't lore for the game that's been established. In fact the beautiful thing about it is that it's open-ended enough for player influence.

Am I just not looking hard enough? Is it some small niche group hidden in some backwater corner of New Eden? I'd really like to know. I can help but feel that roleplay would add so much more to the EVE experience.


The biggest role player of all time in the Eve universe, has to be Santo Trafficante. I have never, seen anyone in eve, putting so much time and hard effort into his own bio, by making links of each letter of a word/sentence, to glorious and self-admiring kills. He even makes (or made, last time I checked), funny statements, like "Yo, check this bro and his 6 bio pod" where each single word and number of the quote above, is a link to an actual kill of his within the killboards.

I just wish there were more like him. Granted, EVE lacks pretty much in role players otherwise.

I would like to see CCP Seagull in EVE LARP session, playing as a sexy Gurista pirate seducing Caldari Navy Staff Sergeant, to use him in some naughty scheme.

We rode them out of town on a rail...I think they landed at SWTOR.

There just isn't anything that can be said!

Now you see, I always RP a crush with Diana Kim because it's simply funny. I'm careful not to take it too far though, I'm creepy enough in RL. A hard-headed androgynous 5th Dragonaur zealot being hit on by an Intaki provides an avenue for lols.

Little things like that.

Once she almost broke my arm, because I wanted to hold her hand while she was asleep.
I was just sitting at her bed. I was too tired to fly home so I just stayed at her place.

She's actually really cute when she's asleep, but the sexual repression she's suffering from is insane!

I do wonder if she ever figured out what to do with that rubber missile she got ................

There are two kinds of RP in EVE.

1) the we just pretend to do stuff and dream up stories in a subforum crowd.

2) the real roleplayers from http://www.minerbumping.com
