see @Uta_Asmai , you think everyone is the same, all gankers or pro gankers, but _some_ of us are different, so before you start writing essays you need to think

and @kage1982 , you say ‘ya berk’ way too much, the right amount would be not at all, but it also hints that you have spent some time in the southern USA as not that many people outside of the south say ‘ya’ that is probably why no one knew of the word ‘berk’ on these forums before, because it is some southern slang that we have never heard of before.

before you start naming people as gankers or pvpers, maybe research what they do in eve online first, as i mine, manufacture, explore, do pve, and occasionally will try to do fw around jita for a few hours before i unenlist

and uta, i am fully capable of going to the dark side [Bounty on Uta Asmai](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/kill-contract-uta-asmai-to-see-if-he-will-shut-up-about-everything-until-he-figures-out-who-does-what-before-he-writes/521218)
