I have seen quite a few female eve players come in go in my past alliance over the years and have never treated them any different then anyone else. I have always had the utmost respect for all my eve friends and corp mates but my patience can sometimes run short for the really stupid people that would come into my alliance.

I never thought of it as stealing so much as "gifts of isk appropriated to my character under false flirtatious conditions." after all...I didn't actually go into their wallet and do the transaction myself. can't be "stolen" if it was given willingly.

Kate, I too, treat everyone the same.

Eevee, Maybe not stealing, but it is like being a con artist, technically stealing.
I always wondered how people can fall for that stuff though. I doubt giving you stuff is going to get them into your pants or whatever they thought it'd do.... You can't take the sky from me

Never understood corp theft in eve in regards to the time / reward ratio. Doing it in RL is far more fun. Especially f the peson you are robbing doesnt realise it.
Every time we do a job for an investment bank or fund i get a warm glow inside when we nail them at 8-9%.
Good times. "I think you should buy a new Mayan calendar. Mine has muscle cars on it." --áKenneth O'Hara

I just fixed a long-recurring problem with my monitors.
I discovered that between the cards, one of them has an affinity for running the display selected as "use this as your main display."
if that card isn't running the one I select as the main display, it gets upset and starts doing things like disabling OpenGL.
plenty of people have had this issue, but no one was able to solve it. the problems date back to 2009 all over the web.
do I tell someone? Rainfleet on Twitch |

Go for big fish then. Small paydays are meh. I know one guy who stole 3bil and lost more than that when being hunted. Yet he still gloats about it.

can't ever know for sure peoples true motivations. i'm sure there have been some to entertain those thoughts. i may or may not have even actively encouraged them now and then...particularly back in my attention ***** phase...which i'm not overly proud of. but that's a different story altogether.
or maybe they just feel sympathetic when I very convincingly whine about being poor (which is periodically even true!). or maybe they have that knight thing going on and just want to make sure I can enjoy the game so I don't get bored and leave. or feel protective of me somehow.
everyone is different. I don't use them and spit them out or anything. i'm actually in contact (and on good terms with most) with a lot of the players that have given me things or money over my time in this game. i'm a fairly extroverted person and I love the social aspect of MMO's. and that's especially key in this game for me because, to be 100% honest, I really don't care about spaceships and science fiction and pretty much everything this game is based on. I do like the risk aspect though. and the loss has meaning part. but it really is the people and connections with them that keep me interested. |

Well I can say I'm pleased and relieved today, Comcast showed up early and they did not send a hit man either despite customer support telling me that they were 101% sure this would be the last time I contact them.
The MoCA/grounding block was not placed where it should be (on the drop right before the splitter) and was messing everything up and they also buried the cable that they forgot to do last time.
The guy that came this time must have been a supervisor or something because I heard him call the previous tech and chew him a new ass for doing it wrong.
As for the internet issue. Billing gave me the wrong speed tier. One that was half the speed of what was being paid for. I was getting around 26Mbit and now its 58Mbit. My advertised speed is upto 50Mbit. People, who talk, don't know. People, who know, don't talk.

Awesome news \o/
My mum had applied for a new job last week because her old job sucks. And she was at job interview monday and today she just got the message that she is hired.
It is really awesome because her old job is really crappy. She works in administration on a school, but she is busy as **** and her boss is the most incompetent fool I have ever seen. Worse leadership is hard to come by. And some of the teachers are just a-holes towards the administration personel. Finally she can get away from that and calm down abit, because I could feel that she was very unhappy and it stressed her alot. One Man Crew - Collective solo pvp |
