So if they are dust bunnies, than what are we to them? Is egger still an acceptable term. I mean non immortals use that term.

Mouth breathing button mashers who should go back to playing WoW. Oh wait, WoW has more buttons than Eve. Well, that explains why everyone in Eve is so angry; they're all no skill, fat fingered puggers who realize they can't even hack WoW. They really deserve each other.

I don't like the term Dust Bunny nearly as much as Mud Humper.

CCP Sreegs is my favorite developer.

I really prefer Dust Mites because from orbit that's about how big they look before we bombard them.

I think we should keep it simple... Call them what they are...

"Targets" and shortly thereafter "Pink Mist"

And they will call us "OMGWTFwasthat"

There is no such thing as a fair fight...

If your fighting fair you have automatically put yourself at a disadvantage.

Another name that springs to mind is 'Fluffers'

"Dust Bunnies" is here to stay. Who ever it was saying that they hear Dust Mites all the time is listening to only the sound of their own voice.

As for us, Capsuleers, Eggers, Poders are the better choices. Personally I go with Capsuleers as it sounds more formal than the other two, befitting of our status.

It's not going to happen and you know it, bombardment from space cannot be so powerful it's the deciding factor in Dust battles otherwise nobody will play Dust at all. A useful tool? Yes. An "I WIN" button? No.

Some of you guys are totally clueless about FPS players. I bet millions at LEAST give DUST a try. They are going to dwarf the EvE community by orders of magnitude.

The question is... what are the DUST players going to call capsuleers.

They're probably going to call us "those arseholes that keep bombing us for no reason".

My bet is that a few million kids on a FPS console game will give us a name that express their point of view. And somehow I don't think it will be: The Great Immortal Gods Of The Universe We Obey You. I mean, some of them will probably download the EVE client to actually try it out.
