Ships & Modules

Hell yes.

Quoting this to remind OP of the real reason he started this thread....Now on to Tippa.


To call the Tippia a troll would be a misnomer. The Tippa is perhaps one of the most successful and accomplished trolls in all of eve forums.

Its typical MO is not all that elaborate but it has refined its technique quite well. It searches for (often minute) details in a thread which it can exploit and then harps on them with pinpoint precision. Its goal? To surreptitiously change the focus of any forum thread to one which he can argue wisely about and wave his epeen around in full glory.

It often does this by rephrasing the OP into a seemingly similar argument or expression, but if you look closely, the new stated argument is often quite different from what the OP intends.

To be successful, the Tippia needs the author of the OP or others in the thread to accept its new focus or argument and begin to converse with it on these terms. I have watch the Tippia take modest forum threads and single handedly turn them into quasi threadnaughts using this technique.

The best defense against an attack by a Tippia appears to be to deny it the ability to refocus the OP into its own new topic. Although this sounds easy at first, one should not underestimate the Tippia's Zen like ability to ninja a thread.

Be careful. Scientists' work on Tippia repellent seems promising, but until we have that, it its best to avoid all direct conflict with the Tippia.



HTH

I find this mildly amusing, also this thread convinced me to start training blasters.Then I shall be nerf-proof.

OMG, this thread


FYP

I understand you could not add the obvious side effects due to being a dev and all, and having the responsibility, which thankfully I do not share, to keep it "clean."

Obligatory "you're"

to stay with the spirit of the discussion

if you have the extra pg why not? 2% less cap penalty is worth it to me...

I was going to call shenanigans on this, but yeah.. assuming you overheat and have hardwires, yeah that's pretty plausible, even just with t2.

It's just a pity that really Taloses (Tali ?) are such obvious primaries

so nerf tippia?
