Twas a Gallente lass named Jen Takhesis
Smacktalk was her game, other toons her thesis
She wrote one or two
About me and you
While her ships were blown to pieces

Pirate ship Nightmare, can you fathom
Larger but with smaller spikes than Phantasm
The Succubus looks meaner
But the Revenant cleaner
Seems as they get bigger, the smaller spikes they has'm

Carriers and dreadnoughts and titans, oh my!
Can each be flown with only one guy
Their warp speed is slow
But with jump drives show
That a fast ship isn't enough to get by

I'm finding out space is real big
And it's best if you're flying a frig
The warp speed is great
And the fights are top rate
But the best thing is its' small sig

Oh, Massive Scordite!
Harken to me
Through the song of my mining lasers
Star bright, star cracked orb of rock!
Hast thy asteroid been depleted so fast?
Say, "nay"!
For I have not yet smoked the swansong of my mining quota
And the blue tulips doth proclaim my hold is full!

Red versus Blue as you know,
Slug it out every night, blow for blow,
But when wartargets appear,
They never falter nor fear,
They steam in and cry,
"Tally ho!"

That man is the noblest creature may be inferred from the fact that no other creature has contested his claim.

The ten year old EVE playerbase
Knows the devs' deliberate pace.
But COD pros
And TMC trolls
Shout "Look at DUST's terminal phase!"

The mercs want to see some progress
Maps, modes, PVE and markets
But the common refrain
On the blue post pain train
"You'll have to come ask at fanfest"

I had one hell of a fright,
much to redemptions delight.
A camp of flashy red lights,
oh this is going to be a painful night.
Greygal lead us to on hell of a fight.

I surely can write these all day
The OP may read in dismay
The syllable count
Is flexible now
Oh right the EVE topic - too late

Some general info on limerick construction: http://whvvugt.home.xs4all.nl/Archives_TCCMB/Limericks/Structure.html

And entry 2:

Capsuleer, wormhole here, come and PVE
Look inside, sail my tide, bounty harkens thee
Stay aligned, alert, ready
Flee from rats, fast and deadly
Capsuleer, death is here, ‘ware the PVP

There once was a pilot so BRAVE
His girlfriend couldn't get laid
Her flirtatious cooing
Disrupted his pew-ing
Until one eventually caved

There is a man in Jita who doubled my ISK,
I did it three times with absolutely no risk!
When the Bonus Room came,
I gained notoriety and fame,
Because now pictures of me covered in mayonnaise exist!

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Look, Xanadu (bravest of posters)
Is trying to educate most of us
But capsuleers gen'rally
Take criticism badly
ESPECIALLY the EVE forum warriors

The robot called CCP K1
Is plotting for CCP Dolan
To get blapped by a drone
With an out of date clone
Thus usurping his dev position

I struggle with EVE character names
Pronouncing and syllable games
I think Nicen Jehr
With typical flair
Falls into a similar vein

See Bio for isk doubling rules. If you didn't read bio, chances are you funded those who did.

not an original, but a parody of Old Woman in a Shoe

There was an old carrier who lived in Otou
Had so many fighters didn't know what to do
She sent them to HED
With nary a dread
They spanked them all soundly and made them go dead

EDIT: 100!
