Edited by: Havok Pierce on 04/12/2007 00:38:20 Looking for maxims to allow the newbloods to get a quicker feel for how the dynamics work in this forum. With a little luck, the list might warrant a sticky :D.
Examples: -Whenever the "this UI needs more warning box" thread comes up, Shadarle will say he'd like to be able to shut the things off.
-When "OMG I GOT UNDERCUT" appears, the appropriate response is: "Let me make some more profit off of you while you cry."
-IPOs are made of pain. Yours, to be specific.
-The correct response to getting 1B isk off of a single T1 missile is to nod sagely and quietly reinvest the money somewhere.
-Dark Shikari knows when a thread is being made before the thread's author does.
-Scammers are people too. Often ones that you'd like to podkill. However, this fact does not invalidate any advice they might have.
-Shar Tegral and Ezoran DuBlaidd do not play well together.
-Taikun and {Ricdic, Shadarle, Shar Tegral, FastLearner, ...} do not play well together.
-No three of the "major players" can agree on a single topic. When this happens, Jita implodes.
-Speaking of Jita imploding... um, yeah, can't think of anything funny about Jita imploding.
-Alts are not well-recieved.
-Ricdic will pimp EBANK at every opportunity.
-On the Ricdic topic: Ricdic has more people on his character list than most have as family. And all of them talk on the forums.
I, of course, am missing quite a few here. Any other suggestions (preferably in good taste)?

The kind of people that make these repetitive/inane threads are the same ones who don't read stickies. Noble effort though.

YOU HEAR THAT? Havok says I'm people too!
You forgot a few things.
Shar Tegral has a sexual fascination with Taikun
Ricdic gets stomach aches if you steal money from him and call him bad names
Shadarle is actually quite a nice guy but he has to front on the forums
Benvie predicts the future
Calgorac forges quotes of other people and spams the forums on frequent occasions because of his own random tissy-fits
LaVista Vista does things and stuff.
and not having a security commission regarding IPOs means in 6 months I will steal more of your money and swim in it with Shadarle.

Clearly it is time for another Dark Shikari/Chuck Norris joke thread.

Edited by: Motivated Prophet on 04/12/2007 08:51:40 Asking why the price on your favorite (module||ship||isotope) is going (up||down||nowhere) is like asking your cellmate if he thinks you're handsome. You're just inviting trouble.
Somebody always has more isk than you.
With regards to the above--think twice before you disregard any advice they give you; obviously, they had to know what they were doing to get all that isk in the first place.
With regards to the above--disregard anything they say; they almost certainly got rich by eating noobs like you for lunch.
All absolutes are false.
Your morals and ethics have no meaning in the game; you're expected to be an ******* to your competitors 23/7, and to sell your mother for a nickel. Or, better yet, to sell options contracts on her (the better to hedge your risk).
But not displaying good morals and ethics on this forum will get you shunned, permanently.
Linking to Wikipedia, especially for topics most of the forum understands, is considered a helpful and unobtrusive way to save space and effort by talking to the market veterans and the newbies simultaneously.
That said, some people seriously need to get a life. ~~~~
There's always room for more Rawcola.
Every IPO is a scam. Especially yours.
We will not take pity on you just because you're new here. We will not take pity on you because you just lost a freighter with all your worldly possessions. We just want your isk.
In fact, that's a maxim by itself: We just want your isk.
You may, however, pay us to listen to your story while we take your isk.
The quickest way to turn a guaranteed money-making scheme into a guaranteed money-losing scheme is to say a single goddamn thing about it to anyone.

-The correct response to paying 1B isk for a single T1 missile is to quietly ask for your ISK back. Failing that, crying in your pod is considered acceptable.
-All staplers (dancing or not), felines, soda, etc, has no place within 10 meters of your keyboard.

Im flattered!!!! Im amazed that came from a scammer.
This thread is made of absolute win. It sums up the basics of how carebears make isk. Its simply too true.
-When you buy my ships i make isk. Later i blow it up, and make isk off the fittings i didnt produce, which you then fitted. Point? Fit fittings made by ME! I might or might not still blow you up, but a ransom is always possible
-Carebears are the top of the foodchain. PvP'ers in general are just arrogant and often quite stupid. We have the isk.
