No. Just because everyone, who had ever left the dock, had some ships lost or destroyed. The fact you have no public kill records means that you just never left the dock.

And we will left all your other impotent rage unmarked: it's your right to act such pathetic.

Pathetic is the ad hominem arguments I have to suffer daily from the likes of you. And the meta-level use of information used to support said arguments.

Seeing fools recoil when I lash them with proper verbal aggression makes it worth it.

I can think of a few people who never lost a ship, obviously not myself..... Also not every one of my exploits have a a battle report associated with them (joys of flying logistics). Not having a combat record doesn't mean she's NEVER done anything, just that it's less likely...

Can't we all just get along and do science together? Pretty please?

Miss Ruil, you are all talk! Why don't you put words to action and volunteer for my project? Since you don't do anything other than bad talk people and sit on your hands all day, what do you have to lose?

Looks rather interesting and intriguing, however there are a couple point that concern me heck a lot.

1) It is gurista research. From my previously "normal" life without being a capsule pet I was marine. There weren't war with Gallente yet and most of the time we were fighting just guristas. I have seen them enough and what filthy and disgusting things they do to themselves and their captives. Not as terrible as gallentes, of course, but way closer to gallente than to Caldari. No way I am giving my body to them.

2) If it means consciouseness transfer to the new clone, it does mean... yea. Death. Death and birth of a new clone. No, thanks. I don't want to die for science. I'd better die in a combat with weapon in my hand. Or in my capsule, since it is... like a mini-tank. Could that be operation on a working body I could consider, but otherwise... duh. I heard that on consciouseness transfer previous bodies are destroyed and biomassed to create new clones, implants are extracted and built into fresh clone, so when you jump in your previous clone thinking it will be still "alive" - nope. It isn't. It is new life form.

Honored are the dead, for their legacy guides us.

Personally I found that the act of sticking a knife between someones ribs or being cut in half by a MH-82 heavy machine gun offered a poor frame of reference when I came to measuring my mortality. After the thousandth death or so it really only serve to highlight how inhuman I had become.

Tell me you aren't really considering this Wulver?

Though to be fair I'd pay to see you snap Galm in two across your knee.

Truth be told I have a great many of unpaid debts to more than a few Guristas that I have encountered in the last several years, and I was somewhat hoping that perhaps my participation might make at least some of those go away. Not to mention all the potential advancements that might present themselves given the opportunity to work with a Guristas scientist on cybernetic enhancements and psychological reconditioning. While I could never conduct research of this sort at the engineering labs of the War Academy, I could bring whatever we discover back with me to Providence for further research.

Besides, life in the State has been agony as of late. While I will never completely abandon my duty to the Caldari, it would be more than a relief to alleviate some of my existing anxiety and guilt that leaves me tied to my empire at the expense of my personal growth as a capsuleer.

Overall I'd say I'm cautiously optimistic about such an opportunity, even if an airhead pirate kakku will be administering needle-like sensations from everything from my toes to my taint. What could possibly go wrong?

Why do people keep asking that? I have plenty of experience doing this sort of science stuff! It is perfectly safe!

Anyways, I've been negotiating with a bounty hunter to bring me my hand picked test subject, so if it all turns out good, I'll have my first tangible results in a couple of weeks!

So exciting!

People, people!

In Science, it is a given that most of the times, THINGS GO WRONG!

Sometimes, THINGS GO VERY WRONG!

Occasionally, THINGS GO WRONG ENOUGH TO KILL YOU!

It's all part and parcel of research. Most of the time, you will not get the results you want. Most of time, the results you get do not support your hypothesis. Nearly all the time the experiment still does not support your hypothesis even after the hundredth repeat! Occasionally, you never get to repeat the experiment because the project killed you.

The important part is that everything is documented and studied, to figure out exactly how the project killed you, whether it will kill somebody else if repeated, and how to avoid having that thing kill everyone else!

How terrible it must be, to be immortal yet not being able to grasp the the universe outside the perspective of a capsule. Is your body so shriveled you have to use auxiliaries to preform mundane tasks?

I honestly hope a freak like you lives long enough to see a knife stabbed between the ribs or feel a bullet pierce your heart. Experience true mortality once in your miserable existence.


My predecessor experienced true mortality once. It's terrifying at first, when realising that there's a large gap in my memories to awakening. Then it's very, very inconvenient, having to dig through so many logs to figure out what happened in that gap.

From what I gathered, true mortality is excruciatingly painful for my predecessor. Getting boiled alive in his own suit is no joke.

Well Morgan it was nice sort of knowing you. I doubt I'll ever see you again after this.... but if you do survive it I totally hope it gets better for you.

Still every time thing go wrong for you something great happens to me so.

Last time you and Galm scored me a boyfriend, wonder what I'll get this time?

I assure you I am very much alive, albeit riding things out in New Caldari until all of this blows over.

And point of clarification, I wouldn't so much say that there is a link between our fortunes so much as the fact that I'm seemingly always in misery and people only take note when it behooves them.

I have never lost a ship. I know exactly where they went.... To scrap yards after exploding in a fiery ball of chaos, death, and lost isk.

A little trust goes a long way. The less you use, the further you'll go.

I did say other requirements, Mr. Egivand, given that no one has come forward, there must be a requirement they are lacking, and given that the bounty hunter has not returned word to Miss. Hydreiga, I would assume he has found no one with the correct requirements. That is all, science is an exacting and painful thing, that requires risks to advance great strides, hence why I asked the questions Mr. Egivand.

Nobody volunteering in the IGS forum doesn't mean that nobody volunteered, period. She might have received volunteering offers through her Evemail.

Also, I do have wrinkles around the edges of my eyes. Why did you think I'm wearing these aviator shades?
