Obligatory "wut" of the day.
I believe it's called sarcasm. Malcanis means the opposite to what he said.
sarcasm n. (use of) bitter or wounding ironic language . sarcastic adj. sarcastically adv.
I would be interesting to know Malcanis star sign for his RL birthdate to try and figure out his motivation. |

Yes, but remember how carebears make real life threats because they can't separate the game from reality?
Same thing here. They can't separate "their game" from "the game". Because to be a carebear requires a mindset so inherently selfish that you cannot contemplate things not revolving around you.

I am somewhat surprised to see you claim that Mittens is a carebear.

*) 'Carebears' are only the select group of players, who cannot separate the game from reality, makes death threats *and* who only ever act selfishly? IE. a player can in your world view be 100% PvE focused, while only ever staying in HiSec, yet still they are *not* a 'carebear'?
- or -
*) *Every* player, who is 100% PvE focused and only ever stays in HiSec, makes death threats, cannot separate the game from reality and only ever acts 100% selfishly? Have you Communicated with your fellow capsuleers today? It is good for the EVE-oconomy and o-kay for you. |

This one.
Carebear isn't what you do or don't do, it's an attitude. I know several PVE players who aren't carebears, although I may call them that jokingly on occasion.
Although it isn't required to make impotent threats or strictly adhere to PvE to be a carebear, it's just a very common trait of theirs. "Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws."

I agree
Carebear used to mean something, but that meaning has changed.
Industrials, Miners, Marketeers and Mission Runners are not carebears due to those professional choices.
But anyone, even a PvP "expert" is a carebear when he starts with the entitlement and rage.

Its a strawman anyway.
If you purchase/play Eve online for entertainment, then money made over time has no bearing on how effectively you play the game whatsoever. Accounts may not be used for business purposes. Access to the System and playing EVE is intended for your personal entertainment, enjoyment and recreation, and not for corporate, business, commercial or income-seeking activities.-á |

You're a fine one to start throwing around that particular accusation.
Ramona McCandless wrote:but you claim to know my state of mind.
You used the behavior of wild animals to justify and rationalize the actions of human beings. Yes, I believe that speaks volumes about your thought process.
Ramona McCandless wrote:Im sure you pay for the most expensive item rather than the cheapest?
And you attack where the enemy has his strong points and not the soft spots in his defense?
You shoot at Blood Raiders with kinetic do you?
What I don't do is "attack the weak", i.e., go after the soft targets without provocation. I don't gank miners, or go after freighters, etc. There's just no challenge in it. I'm not out to pad my killboard with meaningless stats. To paraphrase Malcom Reynolds, If I shoot at you, you'll be armed and fit for PvP. Are the fights always fair? Of course not; I don't think I've ever seen a truly fair fight, whether in EVE or otherwise. But the fights are always a challenge; that's what makes them worthwhile.
Going after the easy kills is like picking on the smallest kid in the school; you may think it makes you look good to chalk up another kill, but in reality it just makes you look like a coward who won't stand up to a real fight and has to resort to cheap tactics to score empty numbers.
