> [@Gix\_Firebrand](#): > > Yes, yes you are definitely making it up šŸ˜ƒ I believe it. Iā€™ve met a handful of ā€œmilitary guysā€ in EVE who were total bleeding-heart pansies. Most have been well-rounded, but a couple were total and utter carebears, complaining _all the time_ about wars, ganking, and game difficulty in general. One even (no joke) actually once cried on comms after losing a ship. Keep in mind that _most_ people in the military peel taters, oil engines, and do paperwork, and only a small fraction is composed of foxhole-dwelling hard-asses. As an interesting aside, most of the ones who were carebears tried to forcefully use their military credentials to assert their qualifications as leaders, while the ones who werenā€™t carebears just tried to have fun and enjoy the game. ---

> [@Codename\_Razorback](#): > > Oh yes, the life of 19E is so glamorous. Doesnā€™t stop them from pretending to be armchair general big-shots who think that what they learned about covering fire 101 in basic somehow applies to video game fleet warfare, and trying to order people around. > [@Codename\_Razorback](#): > > Do you think they still peel potatoes in the US Army? Thatā€™s so cute. It was figurative, but youā€™re right about this. These days they simply buy pre-peeled potatoes from military contractors for $116 a pound using taxpayer money. ---

I just said that most are completely normal players. Youā€™re really digging at straws there, pops. That, or I hit particularly close to home, since like half of your posting seems to be about being an elite warrior military dude. ---

> [@Destiny\_Corrupted](#): > > elite warrior military dude Please show me where I said anything close to that. Are you just desperate for attention? What I said was, Iā€™ve been a cop and a soldier and that I was used to being disliked by the people I tried to protect. Nothing more, nothing less. \*19E and 19K are both combat MOSā€™s. ---
