Mars Theran Caldari Provisions Caldari State 278	Posted - 2012.09.13 03:01:00 - [1] - Quote Seriously, am I the only one who doesn't drink or use drugs while playing this game, or at least only one of a few? I drink a bit here and there, but aside from a couple occasions with a small bottle, (the smallest), of Jager and maybe a couple times with a few Scottish Malts or one variety or another of Ale, Stout, Beer, I never really drink when playing. I certainly don't use drugs. Actually, I almost never drink, and I don't use drugs. Not the intoxicating, inebriating, or 'high' kind anyway. Half an Aspirin now and again to keep the arteries cleaner, (I'm a smoker and have been for 24-25 years; shameful, disgusting habit and yes, technically a drug), cigarettes, very rarely some form of medication, (last time I went to a doctor was over a year ago, and 4-5 years before that to the previous visit; the last was for a stop-smoking drug that I'm pretty sure was an expensive--$150--placebo), and maybe a full flat of beer in an entire year on average, and sometimes less. Am I abnormal? Probably, but I don't see the point and I can't reconcile the spending or even the possibility of making it a habit.Also, most of what I've heard of being used, (aside from alcohol), while playing EVE is really quite illegal and generally harmful to the person using it. It also makes them irrational, (could explain a lot), and aggressive or generally speaking anti-social or liberal and uninhibited in social environments. Really, it all depends on what they're taking, but ultimately, taking whatever results in there not being entirely themselves and quite often makes them people we don't really want to know. Not me anyway. I can be a bit unconventional, melodramatic, irrational, and such myself, and that's without drugs. If I don't have much appreciation for myself at those times or following them, how do you think I feel about people who not only exceed anything I'm intolerant of in myself, but do so willingly and intentionally. Okay, not everybody. Maybe even not that many, but they are there and I see it presented often like it is, 'The thing to do' when really it is kind of stupid even at its mildest. Actually, I don't mind myself being unconventional, even if other people do. So, what's the deal here? I have deleted and cleared my signature 7 times and it still won't go away.
Surfin's PlunderBunny Sebiestor Tribe Minmatar Republic 2160	Posted - 2012.09.13 03:03:00 - [2] - Quote Yup, nothing like shooting up while in a 2000 person fleet fight "A genius throws a Molotov cocktail and soon realizes that he's going to die choking in a maze of smoke and flame. A hero drinks a Molotov cocktail and soon realizes that if he does a split in midair, he can hit twice as many zombies per kick. Drunk hero wins again, wusses." ~Cracked.com

Paul Oliver Federal Navy Academy Gallente Federation 2045	Posted - 2012.09.13 03:08:00 - [9] - Quote Everytime I've tried to play this game drunk (twice) I just end up spinning my ship in the hangar and yappin away in a chatroom (everadio and FNA chat respectively). And as far as narcotics go the last thing I think I would wanna be doing if I were stoned is sitting on my ass staring at a screen (unless it's some really trippy mind**** movie of course). Honestly I find when I'm doing my space thing nothing beats doing it like a proper Picard with a thermos of hot tea.

Alcohol mostly just impairs the reflexes and to one degree or another motor function dependent on intoxication. The rest is primarily a slow reduction in inhibitions as you continue to drink without repercussions. Once you get a reality check, the shame, humiliation, and regret usually kick in. Other than that, it's not so bad, unless you like your liver, and would rather not be likely to end up being a diabetic despite being in--more or less--good form. Lots of sugar in most alcohol; the exceptions being wine and beer, ale, cider, stout generally. I have deleted and cleared my signature 7 times and it still won't go away.

Surfin's PlunderBunny Sebiestor Tribe Minmatar Republic 2161	Posted - 2012.09.13 03:20:00 - [16] - Quote A good hypnotic is great for Eve too, you'll wake up 10 hours later and you'll be 50 jumps out into 0.0 with no memory of how you got there. Like the time I woke up 10 miles from home in the hills of central california Still apparently had my kidneys so that was a plus "A genius throws a Molotov cocktail and soon realizes that he's going to die choking in a maze of smoke and flame.

Pix Severus School of Applied Knowledge Caldari State 171	Posted - 2012.09.13 03:21:00 - [18] - Quote I get drunk occasionally, with friends, not while I'm sat alone playing a computer game. That's where cigarettes and tea come in.

Shiroh Yatamii Alexylva Paradox 17	Posted - 2012.09.13 03:48:00 - [21] - Quote I'd contribute something intelligent and useful to this conversation, but I am suffering from irregular heartbeat and mental destitution. My fingers are literally unable to touch the correct keys as I type this. I am so impaired, in fact, that I doubt any of you will be able to read this in the morning after I come down from the high. Please don't make fun of this post, as my withdrawal symptoms and hangover will not make it a pleasant experience. Captain Safety can surely help me recover and then teach me about God or something.

Actually, I don't mind myself being unconventional, even if other people do. So, what's the deal here? As long winded trolls go, I'm going to rank this about 4 of 10. I scored it that high (hehe 'high') because of good grammar, no glaring errors, and a general sense of self-righteousness that is really critical if you're going to pretend to stand on some moral high ground. Good work. It fails really though because you admit to having a soul sucking vice (EVE) and you admit that you aren't harnessed into this vice by drugs or alcohol. Thus, who is really on the moral high ground? The rest of us can at least blame drugs or alcohol for staring at a screen full of stars for 10 hours at a time even though we don't work for JPL. You however, do it to be cooler than the rest of us? Anyhow, nice attempt at a troll. You'll get better with practice. But I love seeing a new generation learn to stretch their wings and fly. Toke one for me!
