Well, it’s true that unlike yourself and Aiko, I’ve never really demonstrated the sheer raw power it takes to gather a half-dozen friends and multi-boxers and tackle the dangerous and demanding task of wiping out half-asleep noobs in unarmed vessels. While hiding safely in high sec.

It must be a character flaw on my part. I simply can’t imagine what it would take to be the kind of person who seeks out zero-risk slaughter against easy targets, not just once, but hundreds or thousands or even _tens_ of thousands of times. Like you. Or Aiko. Or all the other “elite PvPers”.

I suppose I’ll just learn to live with my complete lack of desire to demonstrate the heights of skill and power it would take to shoot fish in a barrel, kick puppies, or gank a Venture.

That’s what invalidates your arguments.

You lack experience, so you are incapable of informed judgment.

Try to play the game, before writing an essay about it.

Her posts are great. Don’t discourage her from writing those gems. She’s part of a very small clique of members whose posts are engrossing _and_ spot on.

On a side note, how many alts do you have on this forum alone? 10? 20?

Forum poster Kezrai Charzai, you demonstrate great cunning in the way you present yourself. Were it not for my extranordinary insight and belief, I would remain truly blind to the full extent of the power held by your secret identities. I applaud you - may you lead the horde to victory. 🙂

Here’s a better way of looking at it. I drive a car, and I ride a bicycle. When I drive a car, I get irritated with cyclists. When I ride a bike, I get irritated with car drivers.

That’s kind of weird but I won’t judge.  
When I drive a car I watch out for cyclists and when I cycle I watch out for cars.

Not sure where your from, but in the U.S. a cyclist is supposed to follow the same rules as a motor vehicle. If not, that can lead to disaster.

Stopping at stop signs, red lights, yielding etc.

I’m not from the US but I’m pretty sure a cyclist is allowed to ride on sidewalks, where motorized vehicles are not allowed to drive. On the other hand, they are not allowed to drive on a highway.

Motorized Vehicles are also supposed to signal their intent using signal lights, while cyclists signal using their arms. Bicycles have a bell while motorized vehicles claxon and can raise their front lights, and so on.

In the US you need a bike permit.

Yes but the US has roads a mile wide. In the UK many roads are barely wide enough for 2 cars to pass…let alone room for cyclists. Holland has cycle paths that are wider than many minor roads in the UK. The UK system is old and winding and can’t really be updated much…a bit like Eve.

We have one here that is two miles wide.

A full mile in each direction.

I agree with 100% of that post.

And it’s true that the U.S has wide roads and they _still_ manage to get into accidents! 🤣  
Holland is a cyclists paradise.
