Gregor Parud Ordo Ardish 1516	Posted - 2015.10.03 07:52:43 - [5] - Quote Logging off for the day with a smile on my face. Perhaps because I had tons of pvp fun, perhaps because some retards got put in their place through "nefarious ways", perhaps I made a killing with exploration, perhaps because I helped some newbie understand the "true EVE" opening his eyes, perhaps because I helped a small corp of upstarts learn to defend themselves against wardecs and asshats (like me). Or just perhaps I just logged in, chatted with a whole bunch of people while getting absolutely nothing done at all but still had a good time.

stoicfaux 6244	Posted - 2015.10.03 17:40:15 - [11] - Quote When you manage to translate the time/knowledge/effort spent in EVE back into the real world. /posting_in_a_(now)_stealth_rtm_thread Pon Farr Memorial: once every 7 years, all the carebears in high-sec must PvP or they will be temp-banned.

Marsha Mallow 2567	Posted - 2015.10.03 20:08:49 - [23] - Quote Divine Entervention wrote: Tricking forumites into showing how egocentric, irrational, unintelligent, ignorant, non-understanding, and hateful they really are. Tricking you into writing Haikus for a paltry 100m ISK, then bountying you and nearly having a fit over the KMs Want to do it again? Will pay 200m this time Getting people to sing on the forum Getting people to sing on comms Asking someone to explain transversal three times, then asking him to explain the offside rule, with 3 other women stood behind me guffawing Using experiences in EvE IRL, like changing career direction. Talking to some of the smartest people I've come across. Being taught to see things from multiple perspectives, or more completely changing my mind over things based upon conversations. Being able to participate in the game at a text based level (which is awesome when you love reading but despise twitch gaming). Using EvE as a lens to view the rest of the internet with bizarre results. Lurking in plain sight to study the strange male mind with hilarious results. Particular favourite hobby - spotting interesting people/high profile figures ingame then sneaking upto them to talk to them (sometime on alts) without them knowing it's me. And then mentioning it years later. Oh, and trying to construct hideously complicated ingame challenges then executing them. Some of these projects have been ongoing for years, it's almost like playing against yourself. And everyone else. Unsuccessful At Everything wrote: TO THE PITCHFORKMOBILE!

Divine Entervention Rational Chaos Inc. Phoebe Freeport Republic 655	Posted - 2015.10.03 20:27:06 - [26] - Quote Man you guys seem to get super mad I'm much more successful at what I do than you. I suggest not measuring your own self-worth against others. Be happy with who you are. I know it's hard because you don't have much to work with, but if you stop comparing yourselves to your betters (people like me) you'll have a more fulfilling, enjoyable life. Good luck nerds.

Also "realise" is the European spelling Actually back on topic, one thing I want to do is get a roleplayer to break character and start flaming me Better the Devil you know. =]\|[=
Mephiztopheleze Republic University Minmatar Republic 190	Posted - 2015.10.03 21:14:52 - [30] - Quote I measure success in several ways By how many laughs me and my corp mates can entice out of each other. Winning a tight fight, or losing a tight fight is also success. Finishing the month with more ISK than I started the month, no matter how meager.

Joey Bags School of Applied Knowledge Caldari State 43	Posted - 2015.10.05 22:58:55 - [44] - Quote After several subbed-unsub-resub itterations I finally feel like I am successful in game. It comes from that I can make more isk than I lose. I get a big in me to do something stupid from time to time, now I just don't regret it afterwards. I have great fun making people scratch their heads going "What was he thinking". Of course the great fun is when I can surprise the hell out of someone doing the Unexpected...but that usually doesn't go so well for me. You can pick your friends and you can pick your nose but you can't pick your friends nose. Unless you podded them...and collected their corpse.
