Madman Alhazred	Posted - 2009.11.22 07:34:00 - [1] I'm not sure if you can buy a character on there, and rename it, but some of those folks have to realize that trying to sale a character with a really stupid name is going to affect the sale value of it. Don't get me wrong, I would love to buy one or two of those characters due to the SP, and skills trained, but I don't want to run around New Eden with a horrible name. Also, I'm male, like the other 90-95% of Eve, so I'd prefer to play a male character. Too many guys trying to sale female characters in there. Anyways, my 2 cents, and micro rant for the day.
brutoid Caldari	Posted - 2009.11.22 07:50:00 - [2] U mad?
Madman Alhazred	Posted - 2009.11.22 07:54:00 - [3] I don't know. Here's how it kind of played out. I was looking in the Character Bazaar. Noticed some of the names of the characters, said to myself "Hmmm, I'll make a post about it." Obviously posted, wasn't mad when I hit the new topic button, but you know how it goes, got myself all worked up when I started typing. Hit the Post Reply button.... Nope, I'm not mad now if that's what you're asking.
Xyla Kador	Posted - 2009.11.22 07:57:00 - [4] well ur name is Madman Alhazred
Estel Arador Minmatar AFK	Posted - 2009.11.22 08:02:00 - [5] Originally by: Xyla Kador well ur name is Madman Alhazred What a horrible name for someone who isn't mad. I wouldn't want to run around New Eden named like that... Free jumpclone service: Thread
Wet Ferret	Posted - 2009.11.22 08:04:00 - [6] Just look at that mug. Is that the face of someone who's mad? I think not! But, yeah. These forums seriously need some indicator that the post has ended and the sig has started.
Madman Alhazred	Posted - 2009.11.22 08:05:00 - [7] Heh... True, I'm not trying to sale this character though, he'll actually go to the clone vats eventually. On a side not, I'm getting the impression that there aren't a lot of people that read Lovecraft anymore.
Anubis Xian Reavers	Posted - 2009.11.22 08:06:00 - [8] When I was still flesh peddlin, I built characters to maximize revenue. Which meant good solid RP names etc. Originally by: CCP Oveur The client handles no logic, it is simply a dumb terminal.
Gnulpie Minmatar Miner Tech	Posted - 2009.11.22 08:16:00 - [9] Your point is? You don't like the names of some characters for sale? Don't don't buy them, what is the point in telling us? I don't like it when I have cold feet for example. But who cares? And why should anyone care? And no, renaming of characters is not working.
Madman Alhazred	Posted - 2009.11.22 08:19:00 - [10] This is General Discussion right? Where you discuss general things about eve right? I'm sure many general discussions are pointless.

shwarzkauph bullets with butterfly wings	Posted - 2009.11.22 08:40:00 - [11] It is simply amazing how many ****s there are on the eve o forums. yes this is general discussion. feel free to discuss what you like. These dousche bags aren't the forums overlords. I often believe many players have dumb names. Like character names with numbers after them. like michael21 or jerel99. To me that's just lame. u lose
Madman Alhazred	Posted - 2009.11.22 08:52:00 - [12] Thanks man. That's what I was shooting towards with the original post. Folks trying to sale characters with numbers in the names, and simply stupid sounding names. Some border on being offensive even. The ones that take the cake are where they've turned an entire sentence into a character name. If it's a name you can pronounce, then I'm cool with it, even if it's an entirely made up word.

Most of the men I know who play EvE dont really care at all about playing female charatcer. It bothers a few of the boys, though.
Madman Alhazred	Posted - 2009.11.22 09:03:00 - [14] Actually, the main reason I don't want a female character is because I don't want someone to make the mistake that they're talking to a woman, and I've just never felt the urge to pretend I'm a female online before, so why start now?

Just assume every female character you see has a male controlling it, you'll be right most of the time. Free jumpclone service: Thread
Madman Alhazred	Posted - 2009.11.22 09:12:00 - [16] Heh, thanks man. I've already adopted that mindset.
Eclypze	Posted - 2009.11.22 09:27:00 - [17] sounds like someone is disgruntled.... did you try and make sweet sweet e-love to a female character, only to find out it's a guy?
Lady Spank Amarr Sekret Kool Klubb HYDRA RELOADED	Posted - 2009.11.22 09:44:00 - [18] I find it a bit rich complaining about dumb names when you have a completely stupid one yourself. Originally by: Larkonis TrassIer I could go for some doritos now, damn you Spank
Jessica Lorelei Minmatar Decimus Corp	Posted - 2009.11.22 11:04:00 - [19] sexist misogynistic bigot anyone? there is no valid reason to only play a male character just because you are male. the two are not mutually inclusive.
Dannerkongen Lootex	Posted - 2009.11.22 11:11:00 - [20] Edited by: Dannerkongen on 22/11/2009 11:11:19 yah who cares what race and sex a char is anyways! as long as owner lieks the name and face! right? maybe u should have picked ur face and name better so u wouldnt have to be looking for a better char in the bazaar :) u can buy me for 40B besdies its all about teh spec!

Madman Alhazred	Posted - 2009.11.22 16:02:00 - [21] lol... I love it when the internet psychologists come out of the woodwork.
Tralna Minita	Posted - 2009.11.22 16:17:00 - [22] I dont think you can be a 'sexist misogynist'.
Pater Peccavi Minmatar The Bastards	Posted - 2009.11.22 17:06:00 - [23] Originally by: Jessica Lorelei sexist misogynistic bigot anyone? there is no valid reason to only play a male character just because you are male. the two are not mutually inclusive. Yes, how dare someone want to roleplay a character they identify with? All those men using scantily clad female avatars are the socially adjusted ones. _________
Taedrin Gallente The Green Cross	Posted - 2009.11.22 18:00:00 - [24] Remember folks: this is the Internet! Where all the men are men, all the women are men, and all the 12 year old children are undercover FBI investigators! ---------- There is always a choice. The choice might not be easy, nor simple, nor the options be what you desire - but, nevertheless, the choice is there to be made.
322egnaro Caldari Under Heavy Fire	Posted - 2009.11.22 18:34:00 - [25] Edited by: 322egnaro on 22/11/2009 18:34:04 Originally by: shwarzkauph yes this is general discussion. feel free to discuss what you like. I often believe many players have dumb names. Like character names with numbers after them. like michael21 or jerel99. To me that's just lame. It's all about the numbers at the start of the name. That's what all the cool kids do.
Omar Kuvakei Minmatar	Posted - 2009.11.22 19:07:00 - [26] Originally by: Madman Alhazred Also, I'm male, like the other 90-95% of Eve, so I'd prefer to play a male character. Too many guys trying to sale female characters in there. Some of the most expensive characters I've ever constructed over time and sold are female. Indeed, most people I know in EVE have one or more female characters, regardless of their own gender. What is perhaps more frightening (for you, I mean) is that many male players I know even have a female character in use as their main character. To be honest, if you don't like the goods then DON'T buy the merchandise. If you think the gender matters, that is wholly your concern, not ours. That is all there is to it.

I have to see my pilot's face all of the time while I'm playing and when I login. Gender has no impact on gameplay whatsoever. If I'm going to be staring at a face for a few hours, I'd prefer a woman. Some prefer to look deeply into a male's eyes. I don't hold that against you. KB KB Beware the beast Man, for he is the Devil's pawn. Alone among God's primates, he kills for sport or lust or greed. Yea, he will murder his brother to possess his brother's land.

I see it mostly on the forum. Why would you be staring at any portrait in any case? Originally by: CCP Oveur The client handles no logic, it is simply a dumb terminal.

Oh but it can be fun. Very fun. Very very fun. You can get some of the best rage this way. Veal, murder. Baby Carrots, healthy snack. Food hypocrisy at work.
