i am an american soldier stationed in south west asia in support of iraqi freedom, although i have internet acces in my hooch its not the best and playing eve is dangerouse at best lol,, lost my tempest the other night after jumpin into a system and showing up at 25% armor before getting my stuff online... oh well..
what i was wondering is how many if any at all, of my brothers in arms from around the world are playing from the desert,,, i know we have brits and aussies here at my instalation.
please dont post any anti war bull**** here im just wanting to see if im alone in the desert or if im among some eve citizens |

I'm not in the forces myself, but I've met plenty of people in EVE who are, and some who are crazy enough to play on dodgy connections from wherever it is they are. So you're definitely not alone. |

Edited by: Nova Fox on 08/01/2009 17:34:15 Most cases where not allowed to 'download' and 'play games' on most goverment non-mwr computers.
But I've been in your situation before and it mostly sucks, I only manage to log on log enough to change skills and play a little market and keeping those windows looks like Im doing legit work of some sort. Not sure how Army rules are different when it comes to computers but over a sat com connection you're mostly screwed, 3 second lag isnt very forgiging in eve. I do play eve from a thumbdrive once in a while but can't at the dedicated work consoles, so far Ive been lucky not to get nailed by a expansion during deployments in the middle of the ocean where there is very little internet.
Tonns of navy people I know do play because of similarities in warfare use of intel and logistics and long range support and 360 degree warfare. |

Yeah, I wouldn't bother with lvl 5 cynicism tho. According to EVEMon it can take years and several children and yyou will also be required to read the Daily Mail and vote conservative. Not worth it tbh.  |

SKUNK
Out of context there Skunk. When hes refering to in support of hes refering to the fact that his current line of work actaully effects the events in the operation. Where as my line of work supports happenings of carrier operations west of califronia coastline and then some or some poor high sec miners are currently supporting operation bob overlord even though they hate bob to the guts supplying those tonns of trit. In other words its more of being a 'structrual' support than a 'positional' support.
-edit grammer and another reference. |

I have a corpsman in my alliance who plays eve while performing vasectomies on marines, and another guy who plays eve from korea, and a couple of guys in the chair force but they haven't been deployed yet (obviously), and one really freaky nuke navy dude who apparently throws fuel rods at satellites whenever the lag gets bad.

nukes are always weird... had a couple rejected nukes as coworkers and thier sheer intelligence seems to hamper with thier normality. |

Ask any Vehicle Operator, EOD, or Security Forces from the Chair Force what he does for deployments, you'd be surprised. 
VO-GunTrucks and LineHaul for convoys throughout Iraq and Afganistan. EOD-Explosive Ordinance Disposal throughout IQ/AF(Dispose of IEDs and such), SF-Secure bases, prisons, and go on patrols with the Army. |

Only thing chair force boys get the sailors dont is all the fancy toys, we still have to disarm bombs the old fashioned way, in person. Chairforce got that nice new xbox360 controllered robot to do it at a distance for them. They also overspecialize on aircraft maintenace, its sorta unfair because I cant go airforce because Im 'over qualified.' |
