As a new player, I have no investment in this competition of yours, I just happened to read this thread. But I have to say that you, Pandemic Legion, come off like total asshats in this thread.
The immaturity and gloating is just revolting. Grow up.
(That said, I do love all the awesome fights you have posted, or participated in, on YouTube. Much respect. The skill is great.) |

I can appreciate your sentiment - my post was random and impulsive, and I am probably interjecting in an ongoing rivalry I know nothing about. My apologies for that. I will not redact my main point, though. You do come off as clowns. But I most sincerely congratulate you and the rest of PL with your proven EvE skills. It is very impressive and I can only hope to be at that level one day. |

Ah, ok. |

I think the way PL won "King of Lowsec" is questionable. At the very least the competition was flawed from the start. The title "King of Lowsec" implies that the winner is a ruling entity or at least in some way majestic in these particular regions of space. And this year's winner most assuredly is none of those.
To put the competition on the same day as the Nyx vs frigates event further devalues the title. And just when I thought the title couldn't be defiled any more, CCP goes ahead and creates massive controversy by changing the competition rules after the fact - or at the very least they neglected to include vital information in the rules before competition started.
And to top it off, the way Pandemic Legion conduct themselves in this thread is just atrocious. The pubescent shitpost from PL's "diplomat" (I don't think that word means what you think it means) just pushed everything over the top.
"King of Lowsec" is meaningless and I think CCP would benefit from staging competitions and titles that actually had some value the community at large. |

I have most generously done you the service of rewording your post into a much more efficient use of words. I do so hope that you will appreciate the effort as it took considerable parsing out of your extremely superfluous and horribly inefficient excesses. It now reads as follows: Skarp Severasse wrote: I did not win, and PL did win. This angers me. CCP are dirty cheaters. I think you will agree that this accurately sums up all of the sentiments found in your post, without the disastrous attempts at coating it with anything resembling logical debate. Thank you for your time.
I am afraid you are mistaken and I fear that you are entirely neglecting my post's content. I also do not appreciate the sarcasm and the total lack of contribution to the discussion. I absolutely did not have any investment in the "King of Lowsec" competition. In fact, I did not even know about it till it was over. I am merely commenting on what I perceive as grave inadequacies of the mechanics of the competition. I also commented on what, in my mind, is horrible forum behaviour from some of Pandemic Legion's members. The latter is slightly off topic but it still manages to tie in to how the community sees the competition as a whole.
What your dripping response does, however, is very accurately illustrate the challenges other players have in voicing their concerns in this thread. Others have made valid points - including me - but somehow you manage only to take from it that we are sore losers. In my case I did not even partake in the competition and I have little knowledge of either Pandemic Legion or Urine Something-Something. You are very much distiling the subejct of my critisism in your post, but I would hope that you merely misinterpreted what I said. |

There is just so much animosity and misdirected anger in your post, so I am just going to let this lie. I do not think the type of discussion you engage in is particularly constructive and wish you the best in game. Fly safe. |

i am not as sure as you are in that statement; our faction alone destroys in excess of 2,000 ships every week. I am not taking anything away from your achievements, because they are truly impressive. And I actually like that you have partaken in lowsec activities to that extent. Somehow, the "King of Low Sec" title sits better with an entity that has an actual influence over this area of space rather than "achievement collectors" solely here to claim a title. So, kudos to you. |

Hmm, yes. I think you misunderstood me. I was saying - in rather less smug terms than you - that I prefer the title to go to PL rather than complete unknowns just "whoring" the title. I am not in any way approving of the way you got it this time, because I do not, but at least I prefer it going to a proper, influential entity than a nobody.
That said, if a nobody *were* to take the title, they would have done it exactly the way you did it; repping up the Nyx at the Rifter event. |
