I actually worked for the State for two years. Sukuuvestaa Corporation, The Forge. Mostly fighting Guristas and such. Didn't much like my employers, but I liked living there, and I liked the meritocracy on display, encouraging the best out of everyone. I probably would've taken better to Ishukone's culture at the corporate level, however. Sukuuvestaa was brutal and wasn't above manipulating people with underhanded methods and half-truths that wrecked entire lives to get what they wanted. Which is why I had to leave.
One thing I noticed while living amongst the Caldari, though, was that men and women who espoused the best of the meritocracy of the State: those such as Stitcher and Pieter, were held up as examples. And it was rabid nationalist totalitarian dogs like Kim who were ignored or squashed into the mud as the worst scum of Caldari society. Probably because by this point, people were sick and tired of Provists and provist-sympathizers co-opting the State in an attempt to turn it into something that, as Pieter said, it simply was not: centralized and nepotistic.
Sad to see the State Protectorate continues to refuse to clean up the noisy remnants of a long-gone era, but I'm happy nonetheless that people will, in a meritocratic and open society, separate the wheat from the chaff.

Actually, as I recall, you wouldn't fight me. When I was drunk. In a Tech 1 (not even meta 4) hyperspatial thrasher.
In fact I was so incompetent that night that I ended up warping to a POS and getting insta-blapped.
Was worth it to see your fear of such a non-threat, though. I suppose living in militia lowsec for too long turns even the most ferocious of screeching kittens into a warp core-stabbed station jockey.

You realize that applies to you as well, right?
Which means, cyclically, you have no right to complain.

Good on ya mate.
I don't have the patience for that when it comes to some of these people.

Where do you see complaining, gallentean liar?
On every thread you've ever touched.
Ever.
