Until recently I never used carriers as a triage tool.
A few weeks ago, somebody lend me a Chimera for a POS rep. He took the time and trouble to go through different scenario's and refits with me in case we got jumped and would have to serve as logistics for the attending subcap fleet. |

Noobcorp chat channels are a great place to learn new things. Here are a few of the quotes I've saved from State War Academy corp chat during my time here:
in pvp never use implants
best way to make money is mining
no one is going to gank it in high sec..
never use t2 or faction laser ammo
best thing for a new player to do is train strait into a tengu and sell plex to buy one
in hi sec you cannot pod anyone
I'm ever so grateful for older players who stay in the starter corps to share such wisdom with newbs like myself. |

Right clicking on your ships capacitor gives you a option to "recall lost drones".
And there is a option under general settings that merges "ships and items" into the station panel. Why this isn't on my default is beyond me. Currently building carriers and rorquals. Contact me for a cheap capital ship. |

By extension, I've learned not to wait around expecting the vast majority of the population (which also reads on the eighth grade level) to suddenly SEE THE LIGHT of understanding, and HEAR the call to action! Ain't gonna happen.
Thanks for asking. I've just learned that EVE has a population of morally superior pricks who seem to think their bullshit should matter to people who come here to game. Your politics are meaingless here... Go snivel at a pep rally... |

While the term is actually 'learning curve', I have to say that I find the term 'learning curb' to be strangely appropriate to a game like EVE: if you're not ready, you'l step off the curb and break your ankle. ;)
I'm actually learning things that aren't directly EVE-related, such as what a 'Donchian channel' is and how an economic system functions on a fundimental level. |

You have misunderstood everything. Your opinion of course.
he/she is pointing out that you've misinterpreted evolution. Someone can't be 'more evolved' than someone else. That would require a change in the environment of their ancestors environment then over many generations that family tree adapted to it whilst being isolated from all other humans.
Genetically different, sure. But not more evolved, humans can't evolve anymore their gene pools are too mixed up.
Anyway: something i've learnt. To always have my safety set to red, I wasn't shooting someone for a good 15 seconds before I realized, silly me! Lost that fight |

What an interesting argument for discrimination. I guess in terms of societal evolution, that would put one who believes this in the 2nd class and below status.
I find that without a good mob to provide one for them, most people would have no mentality at all. |

I learned something about ESSs yesterday during a BLOPS fleet.
We had just dropped a ratting carrier in renters space and killed it. All targets left system and my fleet was the only ones present in local. There was an ESS showing and I figured I would just warp to it and empty since no one was here.
Right as I enter warp, my FC informs me that the ESS is the same distance as an anomaly. Sure enough I land on grid with about 70 reds 18-40km away in a 180 degree arc around the ESS bubble. I immediately cloaked before being targeted and slowboated in the opposite direction feeling pretty lucky. I got out and we actually hit another carrier 8 jumps away before calling it a night.
Outstanding tactic on the ESS placement. Put it at an anomaly, kill the triggers and GTFO. Then the ONLY way to use the ESS is to go back in a pod and split the booty. If you go in a ship, you will be aggroed, scrammed and killed. If you are in a pod you can only split because to take all drops tags that you can't pick up.
I love the ingenuity of EVE players. Although, ratting in a carrier is dumb. I mean seriously dumb.

I learned that GDP and energy usage are the same thing. http://ourfiniteworld.com/oil-supply-limits-and-the-continuing-financial-crisis/. I learned that now we have peak oil and no alternative energy source infratructure in place that world GDP will decline at the same rate as fossil fuel output declines. I learned that government debt is a short term fix to the declining energy inputs/ riing energy costs. I learned that all our food, clothing , housing etc is made through oil. I learned to say "oh ****". Money at its root is a form of rationing. When the richest 85 people have as much wealth as the poorest 3.5 billion (50% of humanity) it is clear where the source of poverty is. http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/jan/20/trickle-down-economics-broken-promise-richest-85 |

I've learned (or more accurately had re-affirmed) that carebears are simply the stupidest(sp?) of all GODS creations on this planet...
Entered a system where someone was suspect, and a carebear was berating him in local with exclamations of "I'm not going to shoot you so you might as well leave...".
Interesting.
I convo the bear. He rejects my convo. I email the bear. He ignores it. I send the bear a fleet invite. He rejects it and blocks me.
Then in local he says 'stop inviting me I'm not falling for that...' and 'if I join fleet you can shoot me...", also tipping off the suspect someone was trying to get a warp in on him...
(shakes head)
I finally probe the two of them down and warp in, just as the suspect gives up and leaves...
F#$ing carebears. Even when you try to help them (instead of shoot them in the face), they will find a way to F##$) it up.
What I learned? Don't help carebears, ever, just stick to the regular scheduled program of shooting them in the face. Shoulda known.

On the concept of evolution - it doesn't imply that some people will be more evolved than others, I fail to understand how you can interpret evolutionary theory in that way.
Additionally, on the subject of equality in the context above, means equality of opportunity, not forcing people to be the same. |
