I giggle because where I work anything even mentioning a game is locked down.

I just noticed that EvE Gate is not blocked from my work routers. Diablo III and StarWars forums are blocked, along with every other game forum I know of.
So using twisted logic, Diablo III and StarWars are "more popular" as they get enough attention to be blocked by our network dudes.
Not that I'm complaining! I'm just wondering why? Why are EvE forums not blocked, but almost all other games are ???
Because those admins are eve players?

Which means the IT guy is probably sniffiing your traffic, i.e. spying on you.
Is it still meta-gaming when it crosses into network level surveillance?

Yes, it's the best kind. 
To carve a successful niche for yourself in EVE you need to be able to out sell, out produce, out fight,-á out run, or out wit your competitors.
If you can do none of the above, your only option is to complain on the forums that somehow you are at a disadvantage using the exact same tool set-áas the rest of the player base. |

Riots in the streets of Jita, uncontrolled threadnaughts smashing cars and windows, angst, rending of garments, flames and bloviation... Yup. It was exciting, alright.

CCP has done some horrible things in their years, but Blizzard topped them in the "Doh" department.

However in starwars or diablo III once you reach a certain level the game is like the other games out their pointless. Eve-Online on the other hand for training all skills to V from very first day is about 28 years, that keeps the game intresting :)
You quoted the post and responded to the thread topic without actually reading the contents of the post.

I find it funny that it's not blocked by your workplace.
Especially if you do cubicle work, there are more than enough spreadsheets in this game that you could pass it off as actually getting something done.

Diablo III has improved a lot now. If your one of those who bought it in the early days and thought it was a massive waste of money you should reinstall it and give it a second chance. Its a fairly good game now.
If you happen to like these kind of game i reccomend :
Torchlight 2 :(The true Diablo 2 sequel)
Path of Exile (Diablo esq MMO with an AMAZING skill tree) |
