Now for the forum whine well yeah thats going to happen and for the English teachers out there I think even they can tell a non english speaker from a native one using bad grammar. Maybe the slackers and grammar ***** need to take a vacation to a country where few people speak english, get out of the all inclusive resort and stumble around trying to use their bad grammatical excuse for whichever native language it is and be laughed at by the locals there to see how it can be.Twisted

I spoke better English than the OP when I was a first-grader in Eastern Europe. What he did wasn't communication, it was genocide. He literally killed all the words.

So then I take it youd speak every other language perfectly as well then? The point isnt what YOU spoke well when you were however old its that there are a lot of people in the world were english, or any other language for that matter, isnt their native languages and idiotic grammar ***** such as yourself that consistently bash that instead of just bothering to try to read the post for what it IS...bad english from a non native speaker....

I read his post for what it is, and as terrible as his grammar and spelling are, they are still better than the post's content.

Besides, where did you find out that he's a non-native English speaker? Sounds to me like you're operating on an assumption, and whether or not that assumption turns out to be true has no bearing on the fact that I based my judgement on what was presented to me by that person, while you fell back on conjecture as a defense for ignorance.

Do I speak every language perfectly? No, just most of them. But the lack of understanding of one doesn't excuse me from knowing the rules and policies of MMOs I wish to play. If it did, I would have long ago left this cesspool for something made by Koreans, whose grindy tendencies are at least justified by a developed work ethic.

I wrote some true EVE stories! And no, they're not of the generic "my 0.0 alliance had lots of 0.0 fleets and took a lot of 0.0 space" sort. Check them out here:

Exploiting


The word you are looking for is called extortion. Exploiting would be something different. If they would make you work for them without any proper pay, that would be it. It's easy to get this wrong of cause for one who is willing to work for minimum wage.

Ummm...actually, the word the OP is searching for is "lying". There is no list. There is no insurance. Extortion actually involves a quid pro quo. This scam, of course is one way. I can see Goons turning a daily list blue just to be nice about it.

The right to free speech doesn't automatically carry with it the right to be taken seriously.

Sheghost appears to be a 2007 character.

How is it possible for said character to know so little about Eve?

Head buried in the sandbox and only pulling it out of the sand to yell and scream when they get a boot up the arse.

WoW holds your hand until end game, and gives you a cookie whether you win or lose. EVE not only takes your cookie, but laughs at you for bringing one in the first place...

I can’t believe CCP allows this Kind of Exploiting in the Game

How in the Hell are you Going to make Isk in the dam Game if you can’t even min in high sec save any more.

Exploiting is Ben going on in EVE for Year and CCP Want do A dam thing about it. And now you got these guys doing this to papal in the game it want be long and tell CCP looses all their customers.



This is exactly why this kind of behavior in an area of the game that should otherwise foster learning of gaming mechanics is ultimately self-defeating.

Regardless of the stance one takes on the issues, new players aren't versed enough in the game to be aware of the issues and so will most likely take their business and more importantly their participation in the game elsewhere.

Actually no its quite obvious that they do not understand english well enough to speak it fluently. The simple fact that Ive actually learned different languages, have friends who are translators as well as having lived in other countries throughout the world...and no I dont mean like Germany and Switzerland. I can see it plainly for what it is. Ive been on forums for years and its always the same thing. So no Id say I have experience with the topic at hand from first hand knowledge of it. But go for it ask the OP if they are a native english speaker and well see whos right.

And as for reading the posts content then take it for what it is rather than the only real comments being towards the bad grammar in it.


But now Im getting way to OT for a thread.

Have you heard anything I've said?

You said it's all circling the drain, the whole universe. Right?

That's right.

Had to end sometime.

I would have replied:

"Hi,

I have no need for a mining permit as I'll mine if and wherever I bloody well please. I can, however, sell You a STFU voucher, redeemable in Uranus for only 250mil.

Thank you."

I would like to take this opportuniy to confirm that Andski's offer is legitimate. I made the mistake of ganking a Hulk on the list & had to reimburse the player. I also have friends on the list that enjoy risk-free mining in highsec during Hulkageddon V. 250mil is a small price to pay for unlimited insurance.

Coming straight into the game and getting their 300 million + ship blown up like that so soon after subscribing their account, must be a real shock to the system. I remember losing my tech 2 cruiser just 2 weeks in, I cried.

Reason: You are not suited to life in EVE

Have a nice day. Cupcake.

I agree. Everyone that dislikes Hulkageddon should do this and put Hulkasgeddon as the reason. See what happens.

I like this plan cause every time I suggest it, the thread fills with Goon red bars (as I perfer not to see what they say. Its never intelligent anyways).

If you're gonna mine in high sec, you really should consider the GSF Mining Permit.
