Now, you are getting closer to understanding EVE, few more steps and you'll read your first post and laugh how stupid you were back then.

Now, lets take a look at the RORQUAL. Do you know what a Rorqual role is? Its role is to act as the ultimate mining fleet-command ship. And it is. It is NOT supposed to be able to MINE on its own, and so it doesn't. If you ever try to mine with a rorqual you will see what i am talking about. It also costs 4 billion ISK but in all-out combat (a role for which this ship was NOT designed) it sucks donkey anus. It can tank a lot, and it can dish out damage (with sentries), but that is not is primary role.

Dear OP,

Here's an analogy for you...

Say I walk into a bar and start drinking heavily. Then in walks a bunch of women, you know the type - drop dead gorgeous Asian triplets with giant boobs in schoolgirl uniform hot. Now while every drunk dude in the place is busy "eye-humping" the babes, in walks several other women (namely YOUR avatar, some other train wrecked women, oh and what the hell - Ladie Scarlet's avatar too).

So, back to the drinking. I'm pounding down bourbons & beers like there's no tomorrow and soon I'm drunker than all of last years prom queens from New Jersey put together. While I was working on my drinking all the hot babes have left the bar for better places to be. Also, all the "runner-ups" are in dark corners being dry-humped by dirt-bags before they head home to the wife, dog, and 2.3 children. I look around to see what meat is still available at the bar and I see YOU and Ladie Scarlet.

I begin to drink more, this time moving up from the well to the back shelf and demand the beer keeps coming. I keep looking over at the two of you after I finish each beer, looking for the eventual change to take place. This carries on until last call. I look over one last time and see what I need to see - one of you has turned into a very hot chick with the body of every tight cheerleader I sexually destroyed back in high school (Sorry for the limp Amanda).

I slur at the bartender to get me a cab, I walk over to Ladie Scarlet and offer her my hand and tell her I'm gonna bang her like Ron Jeremy bangs teen wannabe porn stars and we leave together. I pause momentarily to puke on YOUR back before I leave with Ladie Scarlet.

So, why did this happen? Was I just being spiteful towards you? Did I really need to drink so much for the two of you to become more beautiful? Am I just a sailor (circa 1900's) with little to no moral standards?

Its simple really, I drank until I had the courage to ask Ladie Scarlet to bed (with thanks to beer goggles for her transformation), while you STILL LOOK LIKE A MAN IN A FRIKKIN' WIG!

Seriously, what is up with your Avatar? How the heck did you make a male toon with women's hair? Could she be any uglier? Please remake your butt-ugly toon so all of us superficial players will consider taking anything you say seriously...


Hugs,

Bo-Bo-licious Pirate

I'm just here for the laughs...

Exactly that!

The reference to the real live also works here. A racing car with interiors made of ivory, gems and other luxury materials (therefore expensive) is not guaranteed to win the race. Also a tank could be beaten by a small, but fast car.

The money or size are not the (only) deciding attributes.

Freighters getting ganked in high-sec
Mac's getting ganked in high-sec
Hulk's getting ganked in high-sec

The ships used to do the ganking cost a lot less then the ships being destroyed.

And then there is the jump freighter LolLolLol

Working as intended, get over it.

I think there should be some reward for flying expensive ships. Or we can all just fly battlecruisers like the goonNOOBs I guess.

There is a reward. It's called getting famous when your loot pinata appears on a killboard for all the world to see. Isn't universal celebrity reward enough? Big smile

Try not. Do. Or do not. There is no try.

Let me use an analogy for you:

If you have a Ford Pinto and I have a Porsche GT3 RS and we are going to race; how fair is it that because you didn't try hard in life, I am not allowed to put my car into gear while you putter off to the finish line to win?


Ok, Your still underestimating the power of cheaper things, for all you know, that Ford Pinto could be entirely racing fit, and your little Porsche would be disgraced, much like in your previous post of Rupture vs CNR. Please stop posting, your making yourself look stupid.

This thread makes the baby Jesus cry. You should feel bad.

De'Veldrin's Corollary (to Malcanis' Law): Any idea that seeks to limit the ability of a large nullsec bloc to do something in the name of allowing more small groups into sov null will inevitably make it that much harder for small groups to enter sov null.

You again. 0/10.

Really your initial position is merely intended to cause inflated reactions due to anger, and this is obvious.

Troll harder.
