Over the years, I've gained valuable insight into many areas of gameplay from reading the forums. Just lately, I've made a mental note to always take some characters comments more seriously than others. I don't know any of them, haven't been in a corp or alliance [afaik] with them, but they always seem to garner respect from the vast majority of other players.
Two immediately spring to mind; Ryssa [sp?] with her multiple ship set-ups and Pottsey with his passive advice have both helped me immensely.
What other worthy posters are there in here who know their stuff?

Yeah but your Caldari setups are well thought out, I like them and have used a couple of them to good effect.
So as we are ego boosting people, I'd vote for you being 'worthy'
Oh and Liang as well...

Lol @ ego-boosting. That's one way of looking at it I suppose.
Aye, I gotta' agree with your comment about Sokratesz, as my main flies Caldari, he too has written some good stuff. Liang I didn't know about, but will keep an eye out from now on.

I think almost anyone who has spent a large amount of time on this board is worth some credibility.
I mean, even if you're dead wrong about everything, over time you'll get flamed for it so many times that you either 1) stop posting, 2) embrace your destiny as a troll and become famous for it, or 3) get a freaking clue 
(and then of course there are the few stubborn ones. That's why I said "almost" in the first sentence )

Liang is the only person I've seen who will tear apart game mechanic fundamentals and break down into the heavy math to prove a point in here. Agreed though there are a few folks in here that I pay attention to and enjoy their ideas. Those who actually constructively guide a thread instead of trolling it are certainly worth paying attention to. ________

Would have to single out for kudos Chribba, AkitaT, the LaVista dude, Pottsey and that "Brackley UK Industrialist" guy from memory. I find their posts usually worthwhile (probably the fact that they can spell helps also). Also Verone, though I don't see him post anymore, and Dark Elf (RIP). --

Tbh everyone has their occasional stroke of genius but also alot of absolute trash can also come out of them.
Ctp Branko is probs quite a good one for me because he has enough experience flying frig sized ships that he actually understands what I'm talking about, instead of all the people who basically skip flying frigs all together and come on here claiming that they are rubbish and couldn't hurt a well setup fly, even though they have no experience flying them. |

Naughty Boy for doing the graphs and separating myth from relity (though he was /is a darn mattari fanboy and would always assume one less damage mod for the Tempest :D)
and Liang seems good from the younger generation... also an activist though :D Arguably my opinions represent to an extent the opinions of my alliance and in particular circumstances give rise to a valid "casus belli" claim. |

As I've now updated the original post to reflect the advice of those that put forward names [that were repeated by others], if anyone would like to copy that list and add the race types, ship types etc that those listed specialise in, I'm sure others would find that useful too.
For example, Sokratesz accordingly is a Caldari specialist. This isn't to say that he knows sod all about any other race, but probably has more knowledge than most about Caldari specifically.

Alot of these people don't know what they're talking about half of the time though, and they only have respect because they say what the majority of EVE wants to hear and so therefore you can read a thread with everyone agreeing with them... it does however not mean they are right.
I just find it stupid how your basically saying these guys know everything, listen to them and disregard any idea someone else has.

Not saying mine are, as thats for others to decide. But i for one read a Sok thread, just for it being his for example :)

Oh, wait......
Dear, dear boy. I never stated that what anyone here said was right or wrong, I merely asked for help in determining who's worth reading. That's all.
No doubt over time, I'll be able to determine whether or not they are right or wrong. But for now, the list has been narrowed down hugely.
Wtf is wrong with you? Surely you don't talk to people in RL like this? Jeez, cos' if you do, you must get your arse kicked on a very regular basis.
Online anonymity sure has made heroes of people with RL personality issues, eh?

Edited by: Dheorl on 03/07/2008 00:10:58 I'm only being rude because I think you making an elitest group of people is a silly idea (also your ignorance, arogance and rudeness is helping). It means that when they do talk twaddle everyone will listen and when someone else talks sense everyone will pass them by because their name is not on "the list".
For instance I have flown every frig in the game and flown pretty much exclusivly frigs since I first started my EVE character x years ago. Because my name is not on this list though I will get people being sheep and telling me I don't know what I'm talking about.
I'm really not sure why I'm saying all this because you are obviously too dim to take it in but I suppose it's worth a try.

Originally by: Dheorl I'm only being rude because I think you making an elitist group of people is a silly idea (also your ignorance, arrogance and rudeness is helping). It means that when they do talk twaddle everyone will listen and when someone else talks sense everyone will pass them by because their name is not on "the list".
Umm. Yes? No ****? Look, I have a love/hate relationship with forum *****s, and there are lots of them here. But honestly, the whole point is that there can be a list of them to pay attention to and that their logic makes sense.
I don't know you. You don't post much, do you? But those folks do, and so I've developed respect for them as a lurker and very occasional poster. I have no opinion of you, and unless you actually want to dedicate time and energy to have your opinion respected, it won't be.
Originally by: Dheorl For instance I have flown every frig in the game and flown pretty much exclusively frigs since I first started my EVE character x years ago. Because my name is not on this list though I will get people being sheep and telling me I don't know what I'm talking about.
It's your choice, and I've made the same one. I'm sitting very comfortably at 30-ish million SP and haven't said much here with my main, and that's fine. But the fact that you're offended by any of this exercise? That's ridiculous.
Originally by: Dheorl I'm really not sure why I'm saying all this because you are obviously too dim to take it in but I suppose it's worth a try.
What's worth a try? And honestly, at this point do you think I'm also dim? Do you understand why people do this thing that we're doing yet?
There is a reason, and it's not your reason. But honestly, if people felt that you had helped them in some way, they'd name you, wouldn't they? They don't, and they don't name me either. Cool; fine. But don't get offended by that. Offer something and you'll see divedends here.

Originally by: Waxau Hang on, i take offense at that! I do have a clue!
Yeah, about Nighthawks... and Vultures. 
As with any person, my opinions are purely that. MY Opinions. The only true reason for posting threads with information in, is as a shortcut for those who dont wish to learn through experience. All my vulture setups are made purely from my own work. When i create a base setup, i THEN come to the forums, to gain knowledge from others, which could better my current setup. That in itselt is what makes the difference between a decent 'What is wrong with my setup' and a 'Give me a setup for Ship X'.
If folks disagree with my posts, then thats fine. Its an opinion, and such exists in everyday life. And it so happens that i fly specifically caldari ships, and have such ingame time over the past few years, that i can incorporate that into what i post here. I will be the first to admit i fail at minmatar ships. Heck, i know not what the difference is between a 480 and 720. I dont even know if theyre the same size. But i type upon my strengths, and its there that the value comes through. Although, not all will benifit from my posts. They'll prefer to flame, smack, or generally disregard all i say.
But the fact is, if people like what i type; if they agree with it; if it suits their desires - Then i have done my part, and folks will mention me. If i dont, then i wont be mentioned. As with anyone else on the 'list'.
At the end of the day, ANY post is only as good as the responses it gains. If a thread filled with how to create the perfect punisher setup that can instapop a battleship turns up, and every post from #2 to #151 (yay for pokemon!) is 'omg noob' 'you fail' etc...Then who on earth is going to pay attention?
There will be people who have made significant posts of true value (Mechcore in my opinion) who arent on the list currently. Doesnt mean in any form that their posts have less meaning.
Anyhow - Just watched Kung Fu Panda, so excuse me if i get all kunfu lingo on your asses. Mwha!

Edited by: Dheorl on 03/07/2008 00:53:19 The point is though half the time their logic doesn't make sense, they are talking out their arse and because of rep everyone agrees with them and all this thread will do is emphasise that effect.
It will also stop the odd person who doesn't have a rep coming on and actually talking some sense being disregared completely if people only listen to those who are on "the list".
I'm not offended by the fact that no-one has mentioned me, I don't expect anyone to mention me because I don't fly hugely standard setups or with standard styles and therefore the majority disagree with me. I do however think that a thread such as this encouraging people to not listen to a word I'm saying without even trying it is stupid.
P.S. Sorry if I'm not talking a huge amount of sense but I'm tired, I'll come back when I'm more awake and try to put across what I'm trying to say better.

Damn, I've been trying not to say anything negative in this thread, but have you ever thought that there might be a reason that these peoples' logic doesn't make sense to you?
Even you admit that you don't fit your ships around the standard fits, or play with the standard play styles. So either you purposely choose less "efficient" methods of playing the game (e.g., for fun), or you simply think you've found a more efficient way of doing it.
In either case, I encourage you to post your views. You may well have suggestions that will make someone enjoy the game more, or have thought up the next FOTM fit/play style. Or maybe you're just dead wrong, and you'll get flamed to death (it happens to us all).
If it makes you feel better, you don't stand out as a particularly ignorant poster in my mind. Of course, I'm *probably* the person you mentioned as not making any sense. Any way, chill out man... this thread's not worth you blowing a gasket.

If your willing to try the ideas mentioned in the thread in question (rather than just dismiss them out of hand because they are something different) then this sounds like a great idea to me.
I'm all for having more responsible members of the forums selected out (I know that I am not one of these people, no-one can be perfect after all ), I just don't agree with it being split into a group which is right and everyone should listen to and then everyone else, who are wrong and not worth listening to.

I'm not saying they never make sense, just that people should stick to what thay know and not turn down ideas they havent tried.
P.S. I think your a pretty decent poster, one or 2 of your setups I have used (or were they atika's, can't remember) with a little bit of adjustment and have found them work pretty well.

My last post of the evening, cos im getting knackered :D But:
Whenever i post on a thread, in relation to setups and so on, my posts will always try (Note - TRY!) to contain a link to the OP's question. For example, currently theres a thread in relation to a solo caldari hybrid ship. Many are posting 'fly amarr'. Im giving caldari hybrid ship setups and suggestions, based on what he asked. When presented with setups in the thread, i attempt to work around them, and give my critism where i can (and not treading toes where i can help it :P)
And - appologies if i do sound like an egomaniac - Whilst i assure you i am, i truly am not trying to be in this post. Purely pointing out that of the names i know on the list, they do post constructively, and do have pleanty of knowledge and experience to give. The difference between them, and your average poster, is 1. Sad nerd lives (atleast, mine is), writing skills of a decent degree, and so on.
And yeah - ive lost the plot now, so gonna go to bed. Anyhow. Nn all.

So really this is just a post of people who are good with fluffy writing and being diplomatic... maybe thats where I'm going wrong, meh.
Everyone knows alots about something though, just because they don't wrap it up nicely it doesn't mean their ideas are bad, it just means that they aren't that type of person and I don't think people should be ignored because of it.
If you want to have a nice relaxing read then yea, only ever bother reading/paying attention to what the people in the list say. You will miss out on huge amounts of good information though, I geuss it's the readers choice.

Dheorl definitely has a good point in that while most of the "worthy" posters have made brilliant contributions, some of them do post *a lot* of crap that people listen to on the basis of their rep.
Such is the world, online and offline.
That being said, I'm sure I'm forgetting lots of people in the following list.
Carniflex, Leandro Salazar for lots of mission related stuff, certainly not the only ones, but the most frequent good ones. Akita for the "math" behind many great threads on mechanics regarding setups, skills, and some interesting market topics. Though she's been going downhill lately  Hoshi and Joerd Toastius for exploration and scanning. Arrz Graznic, find him always helpful, not to mention polite and one of the few that behaves as I would expect decent people behave irl. Which is a breath of fresh air on these forums. Liang for the Mordus HH analysis. Pottsey from the days of yore, no longer very active. Who was it that wrote an EW guide, and was always a loudmouth braggart, but still had good info...Rhyssa maybe?
Umm, I'm sure there's more.
As for ship setups to trust, well, that's not so poster dependent, when there are so many "no-name" posters with good setups, and even more who post crap setups. It's not hard to see why something would work and something else might not, or why one posters makes sense while another is an attention *****.

That would be Wanux (FC) and me (Waxau). And dont worry mate, i rejoined IAC 6 months later, after Wanux had sold his char, and had left IAC....and i was still being referred to as Wanux.

Well, it appears that my original intention to get a list of those who I should take a wee bit more notice of has managed to offend some and create consternation amongst others.
I read more than I post here and these forums have proved immensely helpful to me in setting up ships. I don't have a lot of time to dedicate to hardcore pvp'ing [young family, work long hours, etc] and hence I come here seeking suggestions and ideas from those who do have more time to dedicate.
This thread was purely for personal reasons, and being omitted from the 'list', so to speak, doesn't indicate less 'worthiness'.
Dheorl, or whatever your name is, I have no idea what your REAL objection is. Your posted objections amount to nothing more than unwarranted disrespect for people that you personally don't agree with. If that's the case, then I politely suggest that you revisit how to engage people with a more pleasant manner. Believe me, you will be seen to be adult and someone who can agree to disagree without the need for the puerile wailing that you resort to de facto.
No-one stated that this was to be a list of those that are the nuts with fittings, and those not on the list are idiots to be ignored ffs. Dude, the world is full of grey area, and very little black and white. Don't be so damn touchy. And as for being arrogant, lmao. Where the hell did you get that from? I pose a basic question with my intention made clear and you go straight for your cry-rag. Let's hope that in RL, you don't engage those with whom you disagree with in the same manner as you have done here. I'm absolutely amazed and impressed with some people in here who you have insulted that have seen fit to attempt to placate you and explain their position.
Maybe it's you who should get more out of this thread than I. Humility is an oft admired trait.

In no particular order. Tiller (awesome missiontimes thread), Pottsey, Akita, Lenardo, Shardale is interesting (but not in this section usually), Ricdic sometimes, HippoKing was good to read when I was younger, Dark Shikari was also good more often than not, Jim above me also I guess altho I can't put my finger on the posts what i remeber I remember the name as more often correct than not, Liang, Tarminic is a bit trollish sometimes but usually also has point somewhere hidden, Haladala (mining stuff), Lord Fritz (POS stuff), Sokrates (caldary ships) ... and I'm sure I'm missing few other good ones.
