Matrix Skye Caldari	Posted - 2008.12.29 19:56:00 - [211] Oh come on! Am I gonna have to head to Didoxie to make it true? It's just so far away from where I am. Couldn't we just agree on it?

Established parlance? Tell me, will you use 3L1T3 5PE4K once it makes a comeback? It's not my fault you're following the ret**ded memes of the int3rnets. Though it is amusing to know you're one of the idiots that sits in a chair admiring the brilliance of internet "established parlances" Would it be better if I used j00 n00b? Or is that not established enough yet? Don't knock the established parlances, br0. btw I'm writing a screenplay of your posting career d00d INT. MATRIX SKYE'S BEDROOM - NIGHT Anime wallscrolls, the room is clean but cheerless. The low, blue light from a monitor obscures all save a wall filled with lucky star dvds. Subbed, of course! A wobbly young man with the sort of complexion usually achieved by adhering to a diet of hotpockets and syrup, sits breathing heavily as he clicks frantically. His hair looks like it was cut using a bic disposable lighter. A nasal groan escapes his chubby face as he recoils from the explosion of pixels on the monitor. MATRIX SKYE: Another Mission Raven! Destroyed! And he has the gall to call me a carebear! For playing the game the way it was meant to be played! Salvage my wrecks will he?! Pirate?! More like 'Lie-rat', no, no 'Cry-Rat'. Hahaha, be still my rapier wit. That's going up on the forums... I'd appreciate some feedback and for j00 to sign a release form or whatev sig filla, thread killa
Matrix Skye Caldari	Posted - 2008.12.29 20:20:00 - [213] Wow! I really hurt your esteem pretty bad eh.
Ren Surkova Sniggerdly Pandemic Legion	Posted - 2008.12.29 20:26:00 - [214] Originally by: Matrix Skye Wow! I really hurt your esteem pretty bad eh. INT. MATRIX SKYE'S BEDROOM - NIGHT (CONT'D) Our hero refreshes the page only to find that he is being lampooned! It's damage control time! He composes a scathing one line post implying that his tormentor constructed the pastiche due to wounded pride. An emoticon is added for good measure. A loud creak issues from strained mechanism as Matrix Skye leans back in his cheap office chair. MATRIX SKYE: Heh. sig filla, thread killa
Matrix Skye Caldari	Posted - 2008.12.29 20:30:00 - [215] Hold on a sec. Am I live on this story? Hello?
Matrix Skye Caldari	Posted - 2008.12.29 20:31:00 - [216] This is getting scary. I don't wanna play anymore .
Alowishus the united Negative Ten.	Posted - 2008.12.29 20:52:00 - [217] Originally by: Matrix Skye I've seen your your posts. I've read the **** you write about anyone you deem not playing the game "right", according to you. Once again, utter BS. Please dig up my "anticarebear" rhetoric. I have no problem with how anyone plays this game. Sorry to disappoint you. I have a problem when people judge the way I play. Or how anyone plays. The only people I've ever judged are the ones who don't take the initiative when it comes to their own safety and then blame pirates/"griefers"/me/CCP/whoever for their problems. Those are the only people who I detest. More often then not they are industrialists ("carebears"- a term you will rarely find me using). Now please stop being an idiot for once.

Alowishus the united Negative Ten.	Posted - 2008.12.29 21:01:00 - [219] Originally by: Tchell Dahhn Originally by: Alowishus I ransom everything I can, make plenty of ISK and have fun doing it. Damn. I must be flying the worst ships in the game, since every time I make the mistake of flying through Rancer, I just get the attempted pop. I've never been asked for a ransom. Probably flying the wrong ship, not the worst ship. If it's under 20 mil, can EWAR or is fast enough a ransom won't be offered, at least not by me. It's pretty easy to guess at a list of ships that don't get ransomed.

Here's you broadstroking mission runners. Here's you demeaning carebears. Here's you defending gatecamping and bashing those that annoy gatecampers. This is a gem quite frankly. Very hypocritical. I loved it . Here's some more love from you to mission runners... Just a few easily scratched from eve-search... It seems you really have it mostly for mission runners though .

I loved it . Here's some more love from you to mission runners... Just a few easily scratched from eve-search... It seems you really have it mostly for mission runners though . Not even close. First example is bad because all I was doing was bringing up the unwarranted complaining coming from mission runners at the time. A common theme you will see in your research is I'm not a big fan of baseless complaining. I'll listen to a good argument but the one line rants out of people around here are pretty lame. Second example was just some friendly banter. I'm sorry if jokes offend you. Lighten up, maybe? Third example, another amusing ramble with no real malicious intent and no real complaining. Fourth example, still just pointing out how much people complain about the game. I was mission running at the time with an alt so no clue what you're getting at. I've made probably thousands of posts in the last five years. If that's the best you can do then this conversation is over. Eagerly awaiting your weak reply as you sink deeper and deeper into this tard hole you've dug for yourself!

Here's some more love from you to mission runners... Just a few easily scratched from eve-search... It seems you really have it mostly for mission runners though . Actually, I should be thanking you. If anything, after reading some of my gems in those old threads, I'm even more convinced of the consistencies in my philosophy both in game and on these forums. Thanks for the boost in confidence, you had me worried that I'd somehow made a mistake.

Matrix Skye Caldari	Posted - 2008.12.29 23:25:00 - [226] Yep, Ofcourse, friendly banter here... Just some truth here, sprinkled with alittle lighten up over here... Didn't expect you to actually live up to what you post. Another hypocrit so-called pirate . Yes, ofcourse you have nothing against mission runners. And the guy from Pandemic, wow, I really must have ticked you off, dude . I just love bringing the best out of supposedly the mature playerbase of Eve.

Shiho Weitong Caldari State Protectorate	Posted - 2008.12.30 07:50:00 - [229] Edited by: Shiho Weitong on 30/12/2008 07:52:14 Originally by: Dun Bynar Originally by: Shiho Weitong I have to reply to this nonsense... And some of it really is. Everyone talking about "real pirates" are completely of their strappers. Pirates are criminals in ships. Your ships fly, but that's the distinction I see. A pirate will use any trick up, or even just near his sleeve, (if he can steal it) to win any form of engagement. This is just some of what I would say falls within piracy. Gate-camps, beltraids, login-traps, jita-scams (yes really), randomly holding people at blasterpoint and taking their stuff, small roaming fleets, big roaming fleets, it doesn't matter. If it's illegal and relies on cheating/lying/stealing/killing, it's an act of piracy. It's wether or not you make these things to your bread and butter that determines wether your a pirate or just a random guy acting like one once in a while. And please throw that stupid notion of "that's not what a real pirate would/should do." away. If you can profit from it, it's what a real pirate would/should do. You can quote me for that one. you did get some of it right...making profit..but when has splitting 8-20 ways the drops from a few bs fit for combat been profitable? justify what you wish m8 but hanging in groups and spending more on ammo and ships than you make aint being a pirate.......and kills have nothing to do with pirating.... most of what you report is low life criminal activity tbh.... not me cup of tea......me thinks hypothetically if i were to make a haul.. a missioning ship faction/ officer fit comes to mind...........or a rich 0.0 pimp mobile ratter.....or a deed space prober with 1.2 bill in his head.......thought out, planned licks..not hap hazzard, hope and a prayer some poor slob in a t1 fit bs will pass through me gate camp for a big boom and a party yarrr. but hey if being a petty crook is your gig.its your dime spend it how you want. I actually think you're agreeing with me. A 20-way split on a single haul isn't profitable. Which is why it's not a pirates bread and butter, but even pirates needs friends to profit better, and this is an easy way of getting into contact with people. I don't like the idea of gatecamps as an income source myself, but if that's what's rocking peoples boats.... I am not a pirate myself. (yet) I just think the label is being misused, glorified, misrepresented, romantiziced and generally misunderstood. If your not making a profit (afore mentioned 20 way split) you should do something else. ninja-ed: spotted something. And by the way. I'm not trying to justify anything. People can do what they want, but if they're not profiting and living of their illegal activities, they're not pirates, just thugs. ----------------------- Why is it called common sense, when it's clearly very rare. I had a mind once, but alas, I seem to have forgotten where I left it.

There really aren't many "true" pirates, in the sense of plunder for riches in Eve. What we do have lots of is self-proclaimed "pirates" doing mindless shooting and worrying more about killmails and how to aggravate and grief their targets rather than make a profit from it. And then they wonder why piracy isn't profitable. And like you said, to each his own. But the mindless whining is ridiculous.
Tchell Dahhn Suddenly Ninjas Tear Extraction And Reclamation Service	Posted - 2008.12.30 14:58:00 - [232] Originally by: Matrix Skye But the mindless whining is ridiculous. Paradox Detected! We're Recruiting!
Matrix Skye Caldari	Posted - 2008.12.30 15:09:00 - [233] And since when is trolling whining? Don't get me wrong, I don't deny who and what I am. And rest assured I enjoy your tears just as much as you enjoy the carebears'. But to say I'm whining when I troll you or other griefers just goes to show I lead you to just about picking up any stone in site and throwing it at me. And that makes me all fuzzy and warm inside. I <3 you, Tchell. Keep feeding me pleez :D.
Tchell Dahhn Suddenly Ninjas Tear Extraction And Reclamation Service	Posted - 2008.12.30 15:14:00 - [234] Originally by: Matrix Skye And rest assured I enjoy your tears just as much as you enjoy the carebears'. Nice try. You have a lot to learn about what 'tears' are, my friend. Why don't you turn on that EvE-Search charm of yours, and go searching for a single post of mine where I've ever provided them to anyone. I'll wait. We're Recruiting!
Alowishus the united Negative Ten.	Posted - 2008.12.30 15:23:00 - [235] Still waiting for evidence of my tears as well. I doubt he'll deliver. How to become a "cryrat": 1) Read Matrix Skye diatribe/whines. 2) Call Matrix Skye an idiot, making him cry. 3) Await unsubstantiated attacks and more crying.
Matrix Skye Caldari	Posted - 2008.12.30 15:24:00 - [236] The fact I have you behind me barking at me like a chihuahua everywhere I go, is quite a compliment, to say the least. And coincidentally, Isn't that what you'd say about any victim of yours when you get a reaction from them after your griefing? Ah yes, that's different... Because... It's you... Amirite? Personally, I love your hypocrisy. It amuses me. It's what C&P is all about \o/

Tchell Dahhn Suddenly Ninjas Tear Extraction And Reclamation Service	Posted - 2008.12.30 15:29:00 - [238] Originally by: Matrix Skye And coincidentally, isn't that what you'd say about any victim of yours when you get a reaction from them after your griefing? Absolutely not. There's quite a lot of social engineering going on 'behind the scenes', and I'd say 80-90% of the convos we receive cannot be construed as 'tears'. That's where you're incorrect in your thinking. Just because I'm replying to something you say doesn't make it tears... Originally by: Matrix Skye Ah yes, that's different... Because... It's you... Amirite? Don't get me wrong. I'll talk to anybody. (Hell, I talk to enough Mission Runners, and they actually do something.) But, yes. You're right. You should feel special... because it is me. Originally by: Matrix Skye Personally, I love your hypocrisy. It amuses me. It's what C&P is all about \o/ I play EvE the way I want, and I enjoy the game. What more is there? We're Recruiting!
Matrix Skye Caldari	Posted - 2008.12.30 15:32:00 - [239] Originally by: Tchell Dahhn I play EvE the way I want, and I enjoy the game. What more is there? Excellent, then you will have no qualms with how I choose to play the forums games. Cheers!

Cheers! I've never said otherwise, nor made any request for you to stop. Just don't tread on the domain of tear extraction with incorrect statements, or else I'll slap you down. Again.
