Sweetie please. I said eukaryotes were dead. You said exteemophiles would live. With few exceptions, these are pretty non-overlapping groups. You not only decided to delve into a really irrelevant aspect of my statement to prove me wrong - but you were wrong about it. Your predictable attempt to redefine these phylogenetic groups by their exceptions to save face is irrelevant. Also, please stop using the phrase “straw-man”. It doesn’t mean what you think it means. When I say a thing, and you impose an interpretation on it, and I fail to abide by your interpretation, that doesn’t make my statements a straw man. It just means that you need to learn to read better.
Anyhow, please continue debating the status of the currently uninhabitable planet we’ve been bombarding for months from our paultry astra that is of so little concern that someone literally put a bounty on it.
To gravitate away from Arrendis cringeposting, again I ask - if I unanchor this structure, can I collect on the 500M bounty? Inquiring minds want to know.
Except, again, they’re not. You can try to blather them away all you like, but it ain’t gonna make you right.
Sure. It doesn’t mean ‘an intentionally misrepresented proposition that is set up because it is easier to defeat than an opponent’s real argument.’ Because that’s what you’re doing, especially when you try to argue that I claimed it was difficult to glass a planet.
C’mon now. Just what kind of munitions do you purport to have been using that would’ve wiped out all oceanic1 eukaryotes, including extremophiles and anaerobic microbes? How many of them do you think did the job? How’d you get a munition cheap enough to use en masse that was also capable of atmospheric entry without premature detonation and didn’t leave the planet completely uninhabitable without literally reprocessing quintillions of tons of water and trillions of tons of soil, not to mention completely scrubbing the entire atmosphere?
Do you have even the first concept of just how idiotic you sound, making such a claim and then retreating into things like ‘omg, so cringey, you actually want me to make rational claims that are even remotely possible for my pissant little alliance to have achieved’? I know, you think it’s clever to retreat into the edgelord nonsense, but you know, really? It’s just weak. The very fact that you can’t even begin to support those claims with even the slightest bit of information only serves to highlight that.
Can you please try to keep it together sweetie? Otherwise you’re just being disruptive. Thanks
Hell, the half of the paragraph above that is still in the context of the discussion framed by my initial response. The one where I started off by citing Starkman Prime, remember? aka Arzad II? The world the Amarr glassed half a millennium or so ago? You’re at least familiar with your own history, right?
I could point at the history of the Takmahl, the splinter culture of Amarr, and their biological sciences which included some rather powerful bioweapons.
When one holds another accountable for what they have said by referencing the record verbatim, just to be met with “nuh uh”, there’s nothing to be gained from continued dialogue. If your memory of your previous statements changes from moment to moment, and cannot be brought back to reality by referencing the record, there is no point in engaging with you. Good day to you, and may the empress have mercy on your soul.
I agree completely, which is why I mocked your foolish use of memes and actually quoted myself and you, repeatedly, while you keep misrepresenting statements from both of us.
Yeah, Arrendis just lacks imagination, and worse, a capacity for allowing anyone else to use theirs - a trait ill suited for this flavour of discussion. Is it so hard to believe that a particular strain of bioengineered prokaryotic thermophiles might be used in the bioremediation of a family of ecosystems brought to the verge of collapse by catastrophic orbital bombardment? For Arrendis, apparently. Luckily the universe is not bounded by his capacity for original thought.
You claimed the complete destruction of all eukaryotic life on the surface of the planet. I’m gonna have to say that takes you well past the verge of collapse for basically every ecosystem involving, you know, eukaryotes.
So, you know, maybe you shouldn’t be the one talking about an inability to properly remember previous statements?
Also…
At least I’m not so delusional as to get your gender wrong. I mean, is it nit-picky? Sure, but when you’re having a disagreement that hinges significantly on misrepresenting things, and getting the details right, it just kind of highlights that one of us doesn’t really seem to be doing either of those.
Just an update, I might consider taking 450mil isk to unanchor the Astra, but that’s my final offer. I’ll even throw in an honest commitment to not use this astra to glass any more planets. It’ll be a passifist astra from here on out. Cross my heart.

Why are we continuing this ■■■■? Quit pandering him and let this die. If the man actually thinks he’s eradicated an entire population by himself, then don’t tell him he hasn’t! It’s too hilarious to kill that right away, let us savour it at least a little first!
So, uh, pilot, while I also liked Ms. Munory’s joke, we (well, you) do have a little bit of a problem.
If you did what you say, you’ve committed a massive atrocity-- but, you didn’t. If you could have done what you say it would be getting repeated all over the place because, believe it or not, the universe isn’t actually all that short of would-be genocides. Planetary shielding is a thing. Limits on capsuleer (and capsuleer facility) targeting is a thing. And this is big enough we would have heard about it in the news.
So it seems like mostly you want to just make a really bad joke. Yaaaaay, or something.
Only, also, there is an actual record of eggers not only actually engaging in atrocities within a few orders of magnitude of this but documenting the results-- providing actual proof. I’ll forebear to explain exactly how in case somebody decides it’s inspirational.
So actually, no, sorry, it’s not funny and mostly you’ve just kinda invited Arrendis to use you as a chew toy. (She’s relentless, by the way; hope you like tooth marks.)
Hey fam, I didn’t start this. It’s not like I’m the originator of this cringepost. It’s not my fault that you lack the cunning or organization to contest the smallest class of citadel in new Eden. On the contrary, I didn’t eradicate the entire population of bosboger by myself. I did it with the help of my alliance, which I was able to build and maintain doing things other than staying docked for literally months while cheerleading here.
I take no shame in having no kills in the last few months in space, while you were bombarding and taking over an entire planet, I have personally been busy culling entire Amarr systems planetside, check your map, you’ll notice that Sarum Prime’s been entirely eradicated. Oh I also captured the Empress; say hi Catty!
