I noticed almost everyone on the EVE forums is a *smart donkey* of some kind.

But I have seen the cute words "shiptoasting" show up lately. Makes me think of toast and exploding spaceships, not bad posters. Buttery toast flavored spaceships.

So who would be the first to say "shiptoast"? Anyone know? Please post if you find out.

Oh, I perfectly understand, Hal Morsh — a mission like this requires courage, skill, and heroism… qualities you are clearly lacking. Have you forgotten you're one of the bloody immortals!?

More than 16,000 years old. Our Empress slapped a shiptoaster on her Abaddon and roasted some Minmatar. Glorious it was.

I have no idea who said it first, but given the pronunciations in English, shiptosting, while being more accurate for what one is trying to convey, would just read horribly.
I'm still not sure why anyone bothers, since shitposting doesn't get hit by the filter anyway. vOv

Not sure if shiptoasting, himself, or really hasn't figured it out, yet.....

Seeing as that there is at least 10 ******* "make eve play on my ******* toaster" threads going at any given time, it seems there might actually be a market for both Spaceships and Toast at the same time.

I think the answer to the question may be "the Original Poster."

I wrote some true EVE stories! And no, they're not of the generic "my 0.0 alliance had lots of 0.0 fleets and took a lot of 0.0 space" sort. Check them out here:

The real question is: who will be the last shiptoaster?

In the end, there can be only one.

Step 2 - Came to believe that a Moderator greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity
Step 3 - Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of The Mods as we understood The Mods
Step 4 - Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of our posts
Step 5 - Admitted to The Mods, to ourselves and to another human being the exact nature of our shiptoasting
Step 6 - Were entirely ready to have The Mods remove all the defects in these posts
Step 7 - Humbly asked The Mods to remove our shiptoasts
Step 8 - Made a list of all persons we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all
Step 9 - Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others
Step 10 - Continued to take personal inventory and when we shiptoasted promptly admitted it
Step 11 - Sought through study and meditation to improve the veracity of our posts and the level of game-related content therein
Step 12 - Having had an intellectual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to other addicts, and to practice these principles in all our posts

In this thread, you will find uncritical support for your addiction to badpoasting. No one will ask you to post with your main here. All we ask is that you start on the path to good-posting and start by admitting your condition.

My name is not Lina... I am a shiptoaster.

I admit I once fed a troll.

Toasting a ship bring out its smooth, mellow, and earthy flavors.

Some times ill butter it up and sprinkle some cinnamon on it.

The term was already around when I joined Eve, and that was a while back. It's not new. I think it's just becoming more popular.

I have a feeling it was Mr. Ezwal.

He is a lot like Batman that way.

Shiptoaster... It was definitely first encountered inside a Minnie ship! Or somewhere on the ship..

Also information from ancient tomes hidden within Amarr archives, state that more advanced combinations can be achieved with fusion of other/various appliances with specific ships..ahem Roll

Lets all hope that its not me. Heaven forbid I outlast you all.. and gain your power!

May the ISDs shake in their boots with fear...

Ezwal, dressed in chromed mithril regalia, and mounted atop a noble white steed, paces back and forth in front of the amassed ISD army. After a few seconds, he straightens himself up, and faces them.

"Men, UaE has made another comment in General Discussion. The situation is dire. People are laughing, likes are being given. It is up to us to end this. I will not lie to you. The battle ahead with be tough. It will test the very makeup of your souls, the very fiber of your being. It will require all of you to help lock this thread. Some of us may not survive the day, but in the end, we must not fail in this task. He is the last of his kind. A defeat here will turn the tide of General Discussion in our favor, and undoubtedly win us this bloody hard-fought war.

Today is not a day for cowardice, nor fear. Today is a day for glory. Today is a day for honor. Today is a day.. for VICTORY!!!!"

The ISD army's cheer shook the landscape and echoed through the valley.

In the castle below, the dark figure sitting in the throne raised an eyebrow and smirked a little. The battle would be short and hilarious.

RP sub-forum is somewhere else -------------------> Not here.

Anyway, the very first shiptoaster here in this game was probably CCP Hellmar.
