In fact, each kill is a net loss for him. But he does it anyway, apparently for the lols. This kind of mentality is what many find deeply disturbing. I know I do. Too many similarities with a guy that goes on a rampage and tries to get as many people down as he can before he is finally taken down himself. It's...just not healthy.
I popped an APing pod once, and I'll probably roll an alt and do it some more because it's hilarious to cull the stupid. I can't wait for the new Crimewatch so I can repair sec status on alts even easier than now.
Do you fear for my child because I play a game?
E: Discussions like this on EVE-O Forums are generally p stupid.

Rengerel en Distel wrote:You'd think this thing would kind of blow over by now. Mitt is back, enjoying the game the way he wants to after a little break. He's playing the metagame he likes by declaring war on Issler's alliance. What took place out of game is being used as motivation for in game activities, is it that farfetched to think it might go the other way?
Either way, Mitt said himself he was out of line with what he did. I'd guess even he wishes people would stop talking about it, because nothing about the situation was good for him or the game in general.
This sort of dipshit reasoning and conversation was going on long before The Mittani had his (extra) fifteen minutes so, if you don't want him to continue having additional fifteen minute blocks, you should just STFU about it.

Indeed. It is far easier to demonize those you hate rather than attempt to come to grips with their reasons behind an action.
Wait, that's three...

Sadly he only had one, but I make no claims of "l33tness" or causing massive tears. In fact, I'm probably worse at this game than you guys.

I, in my Kestrel, locked and fired ONE (>.<) light missile at it, thinking that should be good enough. Many lols were had in local.
I build my gank Thrashers and all the fittings from mission poo, a bit of mining, and some researched BPOs. It amuses me to no end.

Antisocial Malkavian wrote:An itd be funny if they removed all the drops from missions/rats and just upped the bounties. Miners would be way more important there lol
I actually agree with Soundwave's sentiment, and yours here.
Right now a lot of the meta+ items are pretty useless and don't sell for much. So I salvage four or five L4s and get a GSC full of crap: salvage goods and any drops worth more than 100K lowest sell I take to a hub for resale, anything else + all the ammo gets reprocessed. Even after the recent nerf it's crazy how much mission poo is generated. Ammo is the big culprit from what I've seen.
