so there i was, sitting in the smoke pit, discussing eve with a coworker as he tries to explain why super capitals should only be allowed in 0.1-0.0.

in all fairness I'll list his pros as well.

Pros:
no chance that a bored super cap pilot(s) will WTFPWN a new to low sec players tower or soon to be POCOs.
super pilot(s) could still use .1 to avoid enemy null for setting up for a fight.
still allowing normal capitals allows for a natural "stepping stone" and allowing small alliance to have a "fighting chance" to fight in sub capitals.
he smokes menthols that taste like thin mints.

Cons:
his theory is BS and biased to the idea that its a super cap heaven just waiting to "smash his little epeen tower to bits."

He wont except my Con so i was hopping y'all could help me come up with some other reason why a new to low sec alliance shouldn't have to worry about super caps.



TLDR? super caps stuck in .1 and null; why is this unnecessary for new to low sec alliances/corps

Because whatever bored Supercap Pilot that is hotdropping them and tearing apart every ship they could possible muster against it like tissue paper is still a living person. He has to sleep sometime and they can play EVE then.

If he brings up uppers or account sharing tell him to shut up and storm off in a huff.

Call him a Women and ask him why he can't smoke real Cigarettes. Then keep a pack of the strongest cigarettes you can find and only smoke those in front of him. Finally buy a purse from a thrift store and tell him that the smokes make a bulge in his pocket and you don't want the other ladies to think he has a d*ck so you bought him this purse.

No matter what the argument was about before that you won it.

I think, more and more often, that they should never have existed in the first place.

Has long has you'll have people posting "now i'm donne, i've trrained the biggest ships and now i'm stuck having nothing else to do, CCP do it NAO"

They could train al science skills up to 5, all industrial skills up to 5, all drones skills up to 5, all the gunnery and missiles up to 5, exhumers up to 5, but they don't, they want solopownmobiles.
