Was it a fifth of the globe? I thought that was the romans?

(Somebody around here doesn't know history. It's probably me.)


The Roman Empire never even came close to the size of the Mongol conquests.

No nation in history has, except the British Empire, which controlled a smaller percentage of the world's population.

That's funny because we don't want the drone regions. Also what happened to NPC space like Stain where -A- will likely go?

And that has exactly how much to do with riding horses in general?

An amazing concept
Maybe we should start with letting go of the prejudices associated with angular fonts or straight-winged eagles, brought on by atrocities committed almost 80 years ago


Riding horse = not an obvious reference to being a big fan of Genghis Khan.
N.a.z.i like symbols and fonts = an OBVIOUS reference to being a big fan of someone exterminating people, just for being born a certain race.

You can choose to see meaning in whatever you like buddy

I for instance, once saw a small child drawing symbols on the ground.
This was an obvious sign that she was a satanic abomination, sent to the earth to perform witchcraft and doom our entire species to ten thousand years of darkness and torment

I did what any right minded conscientious individual would do and promptly burned her at the stake.

It was OBVIOUS


Edit: less troll in the following paragraph

Are you seriously suggesting that from now until the end of time that nobody may EVER use angular fonts, or straight-winged eagles?
How about the colour combination of red white and black?
The nationalist agenda hitler espoused is an extremist extension of good old fashioned patriotism, do you suggest we renounce our countries of birth/residence and ostracise those who would wave a flag?

Because that is the world view of a moron


double edit: OH ****! ANGULAR FONTS! IT'S NAZI PROPAGANDA!

Since when is people riding horses, synonymous to Genghis Khan?
It's as much synonymous to him as it is to Broke-back Mountain, does this make all people riding horses homosexuals?

ummm

That is what makes true trolling so hard to master, you need to reinvent yourself over and over and every iteration needs to be more provocative and shocking the the previous. You average troll often use sexual or political material, which is almost guaranteed to provoke some response, but it has been going on for years now and people are getting use to it.



This is not just invented. The old goon CEO himself confessed to it on a video on youtube. Goons are well known in the past for such things. In the past, CCP contacted the old CEO of goons so that they change the setup of their POS. The reason was cos the POS was set with all the modules like one large swastica. This did not go down to well with CCP, so goons had to change it.
There are many examples like this. This is not once off thing.
Recently in a roam i ran into a pack of goons. One of their ship names was N.I.G.G.E.R.

Really, you are comparing a child with an adult that is fully aware of what he is doing?
