They are also clearly losing the Lemmings war.

Of course they won't comment: "damn, you caught us, we are going down", the keep commenting "oh, we are having fun" and "didn't want that 1B pod anyway."

On the other hand I don't doubt that many RvB member claims the above honestly. Because "friglolling scrub" is a ****** identity and "we take every fight as a content" is much better.

My main is in RvB, and I'm quite comfortable with my "eve identity". I gather that Gevlon can't grasp that, and well it is his loss.

Maybe I could point out that we have helped *thousands* of players learn how to PvP, far more than his miner "education" campaign... Maybe he would understand that?

Wow. Gevlon truly is one of the dumbest people I've ever witnessed. I think I'm going to have to stop even trying to reason with that moron, as I'm pretty sure I'm losing IQ with every post. Though probably what's more scary than his utterly delusional sense of superiority is that there are actually other people dumb enough to read "we killed a handful of frigates, thus RvB will definitely die" and actually believe it.

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.

...I'm pretty sure I'm losing IQ with every post...

I don't know you, Lucas, so I have no idea how much you had to start with. But as often as you post, you can't really afford to run a deficit!

It's a shame that he hasn't stuck to what he was good at...

Some of the advice he has provided in the past was useful. For example, he had this nifty chart showing how many catalysts it took to blow up a mining ship, depending on the fit, sec status etc. As long as you read him with a critical mind, his blog was good. But as I said earlier, it's declining and his projects are more and more ill considered.

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?

vB is the most risk averse bunch in EVE. Some of them are genuine newbie who has no choice, the rest are just punks.

RVB has more to fear from other Hisec entities than it has from people who are famously allergic to everything hisec. You of all people should also know the power of propaganda. and yes, they have a minor win-win situation with goons but they jumped in that boat too fast if you ask me, they could have had much more win and goons could have had nothing (in hisec that is)

As far as fighting the largest groups goes, gues we aren't as risk-averse or killboardstat fixated as you think huh, bring it

D.

Lol you guys. Personally I don't even play to win, whatever that is. I might enjoy winning a fight here and there, but it is just a game after all.

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.

A scrub does not play to win.

It's funny when criminals trying to dock up, in 2 billion isk pods, get blapped by scrubs

I hope the CFC/RvB players that care learn their instawarp/instadock bookmarks before they suffer the same fate

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
