Termagant (TM) Program For Female Players
Open only to that rarest subsets of nerds: the biological female player of EVE. There are no double standards. Equal work for equal pay.
Succeed Or Die Screaming
Regardless of Age, Racial or Ethnic identity, Alliance Affiliation, gender, sexual identity, differently abled ability, the same standard is applied to all employees. Instead of being a Jabberwocky, an oddity, a target for unconscious adolescent inadequacies, a different species, an alien (Is Venus a Lava Planet then?) you will be judged on how well you play the game.
Equal Opportunity Employer
Praxis Astra and the management of HAMA pledge to treat every single employee without exception like a pawn, a piece to be moved around in a larger game to be tossed aside from necessity, spite, or boredom. No discrimination. No glass ceiling. No hostile work environment. And, of the manager who thinks they are important enough to ignore our Because We Say So (TM) Sensitivity Training, no trace left.
Equal Work For Equal Pay
A female player (I'm told) is in a position to put the Hearts and Minds strategies to use with terrifying and exhillerating ease. You don't have to be a woman to know that all you have to do is unbutton your top button and he won't even notice you've led him to the air lock; and if you just unbutton one more while you hack through the safety overrides; he'll stand there, hands and nose pressed against the window, eyes wide, mouth open, waiting for you to unbutton a third. If you can flush 4 victims through airlocks in the time it takes a male agent to flush 1 victim, you get paid for 4 and he gets paid for 1. Anything less is discrimination or, worse, an incentive system based on something other than results.
Have you ever wanted to be a Catherine? a femme fatale? A Medina who stops at nothing at all in order to achieve the ecstasy of the perfect revenge? Trick question. You already have. In Real Life. (Its called dating.) Now you just have to decide if you have the nerve to do it in a computer game. C'mon. You know you want to. And its low in unsaturated fats. And its delicious.

I heard a new player say to another, "...so what if shuttles are basically useless?"
Useless? Well. It depends. How much do you value your time. I mean RL time as well as game time.
The shuttle, along with the fuel we would need to keep our ships moving, is one of the very few things that CCP has handed to us as freebies. In the universe of EVE, where moving every nut, bolt, and molecule of oxygen has its costs, the shuttle is not something to overlook.
First, the things often cost 20-100,000 ISK. Often in hi sec at prices for less than the seller would have got for the ore itself. Of course shuttles are usually used in hi sec but do see use in null as well.
Second, if you have your Navigation to 5, you can get 700+ M/sec. With speed like that, its one of the few ships that can make a long trip using autopilot in less time than back to back episodes of your favorite sitcom. (Leaving aside, for the moment, the question of who has time for TV when you play EVE.)
Third, as far as targets go, they really aren't that impresssive on a killmail.
What I do is make sure I've got shuttles at any base of operations I'm staying at, and use them to go between. Yes, you have to have the money to have duplicate ships to make this work. But it does work.

And here's hoping you are having a wonderful day in New Eden and are not being evacuated or crushed or being called bad names.

I wouldn't say this is a rant at all.
It might be a bit long winded but it gets a valid viewpoint across and in fact, it's one of the best threads I've seen on these forums in a long time.

Skills in translating from English to English?
It really feels like op needs a tldr version because the full version seems to be a bizarre textual rorchach test.

The content of this thread is being posted multiple times over numerous other posts. I am locking this thread and all others because they are essentially being spammed everywhere and spamming the same thing, no matter what, is a violation of the forum rules.
