Y'know - I read it.
I thought - nice bit of RP / Instigation to something if people read it.
Then I saw the replies.
Well I've always thought the Eve community was on the upper tier of gaming communities,
I'm talking people with at least a little sense if not intelligence.
Good God was I wrong.
Most just flame for the sake of flaming here, and between that - the obvious tall poppy syndrome and insecurities and the angry 15 year old mentalities....

Well said Yim
As a new player to EVE i also enjoyed the read .And surprised at the reaction by some posters.If you don't like it just move along guess the X factor generation just has to be heard even if it has no value what so ever |

The time wasted writing that wall of text could've been better spent, especially by a pirate. He could've, you know, ganked people for the hell of it, and still send the same message, just to another audience. |

We flame when it is deserved.
I have seriously never seen such an oddly constructed tome. Everything is literally phrased as a metaphor...every sentence.
It's just bad bad bad writing.
And we have learned the hard way to never ever take a posted document such as this seriously. They are usually made that long to deliberately have no point. The writer's of these things know this.
It's called trolling to make people read nonsense of such length with absolutely no point so that 5 minutes of one's life is wasted...THAT is the point of these things.
So, yes, welcome to the EVE InterWebs. Have fun.
Edit (addendum): I'm a university educated 47 yo, btw, so this x-factor nonsense or whatever has nothing to do with it. In fact, THAT smacks of trolling.

Grammar police are in quick every one hide .if you are so concerned about grammar and how a story and thoughts are constructed you would be passing comment on almost every thread on the forum.If you dont like it move along the fact you want to shoot it down for grammar and its construction says all i need to know .i just think its sad when a person starts trying to give out English lessons on a Game forum . Remember not every ones first language is English .Nothing more to add , enjoy your game ) |

If pirates grouped together just whom would we fight? Would carebears suddenly learn to jump into 0.4? Would we roam null? cause 80% of people in losec are there because they hate null.
Hmm.
Pirates won't group into one big alliance because who the **** would we kill? Actively trying to give yourself less targets is not what being a pirate is about.
-10 is nice, but if everyone around you is blue, you may as well be in null pretending you're awesome because you're not in empire. Losec is for medium to small groups of players killing each other.
If you want blue oceans, seek that **** space called null. You want safety, go to null. You want boring, go to null. You want cheap **** and afk game play, go to empire. If you want fun, go losec and kill all the things.
Don't ask about Italics, just tilt your head. |

This has not a thing to do with grammar. At all.
It's all about bad STYLE.
Sorry you wasted your time on my post.

a: the study of the classes of words, their inflections, and their functions and relations in the sentence
b: a study of what is to be preferred and what avoided in inflection and syntax

Perhaps you should specify who 'you' is.

Some say pirates can't organize into into something bigger, like an alliance controlling low sec.
In a way they are correct, but pirates can co-op and work together when and where it is needed.
There is no need for one pirate lord to tell the others what to do, the organization will arise when needed by the members self in the pirate group.
Running out of targets has never been a problem, it's just a minority of the players, even in low sec, that are pirates.
This works, we are doing it right now.
Pirate Coalition has 150+ pirates in same alliance divided into more then 25 corporations.
You just have to think different...
