Depends what your idea of metal depravity is, what you consider to be incoherent or nonsensical, and too which anomalous brain function you are referring I suppose.
I'm not trying to be Captain Safety here. I'm just wondering if it's really that common among EVE players in general.
I know a lot of people I've been introduced to--in one fashion or another--in this game while playing have either been fully disclosing of their particular habits while 'managing' them, (not sure how else to put that), or been obviously under the influence of something, (not necessarily alcohol or 'just' alcohol), and unafraid to admit it.
Plenty just disclose that they are drunk or drinking, while others indicate they are doing something more, and still others blatantly state that they are going to "-------". Fill in the blank with whatever. Still others act like it's the cool thing to do, (drinking primarily), and of course the Fanfest, EVE Vegas, and various other conventions, meetings, and the like are celebrated for the excessive consumption of alcohol that occurs during them with various peers and such.
Not saying it's bad to have fun and drink a bit here and there, or to go out and have a good time. I do take note of when a good time turns into something else, (as it often does), though. The problem I see, is it often does and there doesn't seem to be any way to prevent that from occurring--short of not drinking--for some people.
Is it really a good idea to promote the idea of being completely plattered?
Whatever, I drink too; just not as much as some of you and probably a lot less than most even when I drink more than I should. I generally tend to avoid more than minor consumption in public, and that's going back quite a few years since the last time I actually drank much more than I should anywhere.

Slosh ops are a fine tradition. We've had eve drinking games that barely made it out of our home system because goons are literally horrible at spaceships.
I'm never attending a slosh op where the drinking rule is "Drink a shot every time someone runs a red gate" urgh. |

I enjoy Eve, I enjoy beer... I can multitask and enjoy them at the same time...
I don't see why anyone should be able to tell me that it is wrong or immoral...
Or question why I do it. I do it cause I enjoy it.
If you can't stand the way other people behave then maybe the biggest sandbox of them all isn't for you...

I don't even know what that is, and I'm not interested enough to google it. Assuming some over-the-counter pharmaceutical.
Not a question; I don't really need to know, and I'd rather it wasn't shared.

I quit smoking a few years back (heart attack is pretty compelling in that regard) and having a small child puts a damper on heavy drinking (not to mention the hallucinogens, love them...), and too much weed gives me anxiety attacks, so I'm pretty much SOL on the drugs nowadays. A pot of coffee and a six-pack last me a full Saturday of gaming; feels good man.

I'm a bartender, and I find that it's easier to play when I'm drunk. Hell, every thing is easier drunk. Took me two days to learn the basics of this game sober, took me a few minutes to accidentally discover a great load out for my Caracal. I wouldn't mind playing sober, but it's just so much fun after a drinks of the Sailor. I also smoke, but not weed or cigarettes. I smoke hookah. Does that make me a bad person?
Oh, and coffee. Lots and lots of coffee. |

It's more common than you think.
OP... have you ever heard of the term "liquid courage"? There is some truth to that. When you hit the "balmer peak" you DO things... things you would not ordinarily do... which can lead to some very interesting things... and thus stories.
Plus... it's a testament to your skills as a player if you can continue being a "good player" even while impaired. The same line of "logic" goes into some workplaces too (WHO SAYS I CAN'T RUN A BUSINESS WHILE WASTED????).
edit:
to each his/her own. Some people operate better sober... some better slightly intoxicated.
Change isn't bad, but it isn't always good. Sometimes, the oldest and most simple of things can be the most elegant and effective. |

I never really understood Turkish Tobacco, but I've never tried it. There was a place in a city I lived in once that made a business of provided a place to sit and smoke various flavors of tobacco, (mango, and various other things), but I figured it wouldn't help me to try it and I imagine it was a bit pricy.
I suppose it might not be that bad, but the idea of smoking tobacco that way is a little unusual to me.

I've only gotten drunk and played eve twice. The first time I took out a Loki in w-space and made a buncha money. The second time I fitted up a ship and flew into lowsec to find fights. I got a kill and happily returned to highsec. To this day, the failfit ship named "Alcohol Induced" is still sitting in Rens. Come to think of it, I should drink and play eve more often. Every time I do I have a great night. |

I don't know what you mean by that, I was merely stating that I don't drink alone.
Where I come from, getting drunk alone is seen as a sign of depression and/or alcoholism. |
