yeah if you can't properly fit a shield-tanking laser L4 megathron, hisec is not the place for you

Hah please only one type of tank and with lvl 4 missions we can afford much more then simple Mega's.

Highsec is where it is at.

I actually had the misfortune of flying with the OP in highsec on several occasions. He really was awful, over the least 3 years I haven't encountered another player quite so lacking in competence, game knowledge, willingness to fight and trustworthiness all at the same time. Some people are stupid, cowardly, lazy or untrustworthy but this dude was all of them at the same time, and also somehow managed to be smug and self-assured at the same time even though it was completely unwarranted.

On several occasions he got given erroneous information about where things were happening so that he wouldn't get involved and screw things up.

This was when I was a noob, plus you and throc were always being elitist sand having your little cool clubs, private wh sessions, and generally being know it alls, especially you with your smug highbrow English accent ;)

You guys were always too cool for GFTF hence why you went off and made the BAWF, and in the long run it was for the best so that newbies like I was could grow and not be put down for being stupid and frustrating.


This being said, yes I am an idiot

I believe you're speaking about the period of time after I disagreed with you Evan and throc about What we would use the wh for where I woke up and found my director roles gone and my stuff from the wh contracted to me in a far off hs system in the middle of arida.as well as the primary reason I why i left the corp, especially since Evan went to uni and them went afk, throc up and left, and you left your alt in since it was easier to shoot newbs

So yes I did in fact fly a shiny command ship around highsec for a while (and never lost it btw) :D

Seriously, happy for you. Here's my issue; all I hear about is how Hi-sec players should come to Nul-sec and play the real game. That's all well and good, right up to the point that when some make the attempt, they get kicked back, or worse, scammed. Word spreads fast, and just like pirates that don't honor ransoms, Nul-sec players are soon tuned out when they start playing their little song.

I have no doubts that Nul-sec is fun, but honestly, some people just don't have the time to follow every trail that may or may not be built on shenanigans.

TL;DR

Reddit is full of autistic idiots by the way. And they steal content from 4chan, which gets their content from autism.

Yeah I had trouble gettin in Nullsec at first,for some reason I've always hated -a-, and even though I didn't like the Russians and their rmt'ing, they were the only bloc that was decent to new nullers. Then I spent time in null and admired the way Cfc and test were in and when given the opportunity, I joined SMA with my corp. then, because I had blue standings, it was easier to be recruited into GSF since they don't scam blue, and you didn't need to be active on reddit or SA (for WIdot anyways)

Too bad you don't have any time left for spelling class there, Spongebob. Maybe you should give up forum posting and get yourself sorted out.

One big problem is that so few students are readers. As an unfortunate result, they have erroneous, and sometimes hilarious, notions of how the written language represents what they hear. What emerged in their papers and emails was a sort of literary subgenre that I've come to think of as stream of unconsciousness.


(If you hit the pay-wall, try Googling the headline... short article, but worth it.)

Quote:
Many students have difficulty adjusting to life in dormitories. One complained that his roommate was "from another dementian." Another was irritated by a roommate's habit of using his "toilet trees" without asking. A female student, in describing an argument over her roommate's smelling up their room with cheap perfume, referred to getting in her "two scents' worth."

Tactical destroyers... I'll take a dozen Gallente, please.

Just so everyone knows, the Google Chrome app for iPhone doesn't cause half the problems that Safari does and it uses all your bookmarks stored on your desktop

Also that article is interesting,

If you're dumb enough to get scammed or you get kicked out of a decent nullsec corp, you're not ready.

Tedium and difficulty are not the same thing, if you don't realize this then STFU about game design.
