As for Wow in space, I don't see that in his posts, what makes you conclude that? Have you only been reading since his lemming posts? ... I'm pretty sure iof they opened up a non-PvP server, he'd be straight over there screaming "look at my wallet!". ...
Go read further back in his blog as well. He played pvp servers on wow, organised pvp there, ran rated bgs and left when wow lost all meaning and challange. Came to eve "because eve is hard" and found out it really wasn't. It is however boring as f*** to play. I think I lasted about 10 hours of mining before I started orbiting macks in belts in my merlin to see if they would warp off.
I can totally understand how the boredom has driven the little green guy off a cliff. Still entertaining to read though. |

Now if only the little green guy actually monetised his blog traffic, he could probably quit his day job. Theres almost a crazy brilliance to it. You think he plans to float it on the stock exchange? |

Danalee wrote:Allright, for the sake of the argument and in hope of less hate, more friendly banter and fun content for all; Mister Goblin, could you please state a clear reply to following comments; - Are you a super human? - Do you believe only numbers matter in life and all social aspects are examples of stupidity of lesser beings? - If we'd ever meet, would you be able to laugh about stuff while drinking insane amounts of beer? I know I'm just a grunt but this still is important for me so I'd appreciate a reply. Yours, D. 
Well I have been reading his blog for years I can answer 1 and 2 I think. No and no. Its a core tennet of his belief system that you can educate anyone willing to try to learn. He openly says over and over "Im not special", he openly says to not praise him for making a ton of isk so fast: COPY HIM AND MAKE IT FOR YOURSELF TOO. He'll even go through it with you and clarify anything in his guides that your not clear off. He's helped alot of people in many games and he does it in the name of a randian crusade to raise us all up from a culture of dependancy, welfare and grasping.
When I get back in the morning (off to work and Im late :D), I'll google for you and quote his eulogy to maggie thatcher. It explains so much about him and yeah I can follow what hes saying. As for point 3, who knows? does he drink beer? |

I play for fun. As long as the war continues and I am having fun, that is all that matters to me. Don't tell it to your master or the funding might stop. You are here to grind numbers for pretty charts after all.
seriously, Renegade Heart, we are glad your having fun. go you!
You wont understand gevlon though until you read http://www.sirlin.net/ptw/ ;particularly http://www.sirlin.net/ptw-book/intermediates-guide.html part 1 . Let me quote you the start:
" Introducing...the Scrub
The derogatory term GÇ£scrubGÇ¥ means several different things. One definition is someone (especially a game player) who is not good at something (especially a game). By this definition, we all start out as scrubs, and there is certainly no shame in that. I mean the term differently, though. A scrub is a player who is handicapped by self-imposed rules that the game knows nothing about. A scrub does not play to win.
Now, everyone begins as a poor playerGÇöit takes time to learn a game to get to a point where you know what youGÇÖre doing. There is the mistaken notion, though, that by merely continuing to play or GÇ£learnGÇ¥ the game, one can become a top player. In reality, the GÇ£scrubGÇ¥ has many more mental obstacles to overcome than anything actually going on during the game. The scrub has lost the game even before it starts. HeGÇÖs lost the game even before deciding which game to play. His problem? He does not play to win."
Mittiani plays to win. so do the goons and so does Gevlon. He defines his fun by winning/success. If he doesn't win hes not having fun. Thats why hes so vulnerable to mockery of his goals; the easiest way to stop his rather random crusade is to slap a NOS (have I got the right fit thingy there guys?) on his morale capacator and let it run him dry. Lets face it this war will end when Gevlon gets bored with it or becomes convinced he cant win.
What was it Montolio said when he resigned Test/HBC? "it was fun until it wasn't"? |

Danalee, I promised you I would find that gevlon quote. From http://greedygoblin.blogspot.co.uk/2013/04/preventing-all-corp-thefts.html :
"I think we have gone through a period when too many children and people have been given to understand "I have a problem, it is the Government's job to cope with it!" or "I have a problem, I will go and get a grant to cope with it!" "I am homeless, the Government must house me!" and so they are casting their problems on society and who is society? There is no such thing! There are individual men and women and there are families and no government can do anything except through people and people look to themselves first. It is our duty to look after ourselves and then also to help look after our neighbour and life is a reciprocal business and people have got the entitlements too much in mind without the obligations."
Rest in peace, Margaret Thatcher |

Well Lucas, I also think she was a disaster at least at home. Still living with the fallout of her taking a nuke to social housing, jobs in the north and our industry. Very Mitanni actually; let me quote him for you:
Ignore Industrialists: In an alliance or corporation, industrialists are completely irrelevant and should never be allowed a voice in anything. Sound extreme? It isnGÇÖt. An industrialist is not a logistician, but a GÇÿproducerGÇÖ. Producers live in hisec in countless numbers, and anything that is built there can simply be imported from Jita with a jump freighter - by a logistician. Logisticians matter in alliances; so do financiers, diplomats, and most of all warriors. Producers do not.
This is from his sins of the solar spymaster series and its a major reason why Gevlon has identifyed YOU as an enemy. Rightly or wrongly ofc. Btw PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE dont stop posting. Its refreshing to see intelligent and informed debate and the goblin is thriving on it. Note to self: buy more popcorn. |

Pete Butcher wrote:Oh how I wish Gevlon would post here: Quote: It's possible that this FallenTitan is just a dumbass (he actually admits that "I'm one of the most chilled easy-going guys you will meet in EvE") who really did not see what's going on right under his nose. Probably Professor Clio was the Goon contact who approached him once a month saying "hey, I found a war that might be fun, shall we jump on it"? And he said "why not" without having a list to realize that it's yet another "defend Goons from Marmite" war
If you want to discuss the gevlon RB scrap come join us in that thread then! more the merrier. Or we can stay here and talk goony stuff. (note I dont know much about goony stuff) |

There's not really a set distance, but you should be able to tell the difference between a gate/station camp and a fight. An I'm no more knowledgeable than anyone else with common sense. I mean, it's pretty obvious. You guys even know it, since you clearly identify what you do as a camp since the fleets are called for as "gate camp" or "station camp". Manny Moons wrote:And how much less boring is it to sit waiting right beside someone who is sitting and waiting? Sadly, it's no less boring at all. Luckily, they've decided to do a 9th season of 24, so I'm rewatching the other 8 on netflix before that comes out, so I keep entertained.
well thanks for killing my pvp dream. So its really just the same as mining or combat missions then? better done tabbed out watching ****?

Theres a reason I play eve XD |
