From his PID, it looks like he's just some rock-jockey that's been mining alone for too long.

He doesn't know the procedures on boards like this, Captain Bete. I'd say we should just let him find out the hard way, he's actually kind of amusing.

I can't get rid of my darn signature!  Oh, wait....

Probably not. I usually hear it's the other way around.

Let me answer that for you; yet another arrogant, bigoted, loudmouth who's unable to formulate an original thought and so falls back on the threadbare insults we've seen a thousand times on this channel. Yawn. At least the ossified minds of the usual suspects on the Imperial and Statist sides can come up with something enlightening or amusing from time to time.

A word of advice pilot; you'll be far more impressive and possibly be taken more seriously if you manage to come up with something less aggressively trite or, heavens forbid, get a couple of neurons firing so that you can construct a thought that actually contributes to the level of intelligent discourse on this channel. The bar is set rather low so, I imagine even one such as yourself could contribute if you try very hard or, barring that, pay Jade Constantine to be your ghost writer.

I'd strongly recommend against that second option by the way.


Be warned: when an ape is enraged it attacks the face and genitals first. I advise everyone to keep a wide berth.

I love Gutter Press reports. The secret is not taking in the article literally but rather figure out the reasoning behind each piece of sensationalism. It's a wonderful way to glue back together a realistic picture of New Eden.

And no, for as long the Minmatar people resist oppression and rise to fight for their freedom, their birthright, they will still be following Gallente ideals. No matter who the enemy is.

News to me


If you consult such learned persons as Luminaire General Inhonores, you'd see that the Parliamentary Republic was created from the social wasteland of post-rebellion Heimatar, and was constituted along similar lines to the successful Senate system of the Federation, who played a pivotal role in bringing Freedom and Democracy to the newly liberated people of Minmatar.


Are you refering to Gallentean exceptionnalism ?


Yup...It's so ingrained in so many of them...Ugh

Stopped reading at "Gutter Press".

Regarding Minmatar women: woke up with a rabid slaver hound one morning and then I realized I brought a minmatar woman home the night before. I refer to personality, not looks.

Still have her number. ♥

...That's...more of a Caldari...thing. See, the Gallente are more about bombarding your homeworld from orbit and exterminating your culture when you decide that you want to resist oppression. Like the Amarr, but with better PR - you see, they refuse to believe that they could ever oppress anyone, a fairly easy proposition to demonstrate when you realize that they define freedom as "operating according to Gallentean ideals, culture, and laws".

You lit the match and you burnt yourself. That's how children learn to not play with fire.

The ultimate difference between the Caldari State and the Gallente Federation is that our mass murderers are not celebrated and worshiped as heroes. This is much better of a PR stunt, wouldn't you agree?

And if you knew anything about Federation laws and culture, you'd realize how superior they are in comparison to the rest of the New Eden. I'm assuming you are just another byproduct of the State's infamous education system.

See, I told you that the Statists have a sense of humor and can be amusing at times! At least I think there's a joke in there somewhere...

Oh right, it's where the guy whose government has a doomsday device in orbit around a planet populated by civilians being used as human shields is calling the Federal government mass murderers. Roll

I am assuming you are just another byproduct of gallentean exceptionnalism, performing as well as any bigotted Amarrian.

Hardly. You see freedom and equality are strong advocates of human compassion.
