If he really wanted to make a statement on the ballrooms of New Eden, he’d wear two monocles.

Just because you guys don’t like the OP is no reason to constantly trash threads with your off-topic sarcastic remarks.

As for the actual thread, probably should have been posted in the sub-forum:  
[Intergalactic Summit](https://forums.eveonline.com/c/fiction-portal/igs/39).

And to stay on-topic, I’m also a proud owner of a Gold Monocle as well as a Silvershore Greatcoat… will have to post a pic later…

Hey I really don’t care what the reasons are, you’re all posting off-topic crap and trashing the thread just because you don’t like the OP.

Also I think all Apparel and Accessory items are cool.

Nope, like I said Ive lots of reasons to trash his threads, not just because I dont like him.

And cmon Mike, I imagine you of all people would hate the thought of being cool.

The fact you arent and dont care _makes_ you one of the top 10 coolest capsuleers on these forums.

Bah out of likes again. Sorry, promise Ill fire you some when get em back.

This is a shitpost. Shitposts by their nature entitle others to go crazy. This might not have been a shitpost if:

1. OP did not take himself too seriously in posting it
2. OP did not previously post a nearly identical thread
3. OP did not have an extensive record of unengaging shitposting (including calling _ **literally** _ everyone who disagrees with him pedophile advocates, trash, and/or pro-botters) and attention-seeking

Monocles are fine. (I was being sarcastic in my above post where I wore one on Sisi.) Playfully creating and participating in a Monocle club where you RP superiority over non-owners is fine. Actually taking such a club seriously is not fine.

A lot of the posts here aren’t so much of a derail as they are critical feedback (direct and indirect) to OP thay he has developed a bad reputation and he is encouraged to alter his conduct on forums, especially if he intends to rerun for CSM.

Yes and you’ve posted quite a few in this thread.

A lot of the replies in this thread are off-topic, posted with the sole intent of trashing this thread. You should heed your own advice about altering conduct, especially if you intend on running for CSM.

Including your own posts where you tell everybody else off for posting off topic replies.

On topic, can we have big fat Cuban cigars that have been hand rolled on the thighs of virgins to go with our monocles?

At least most of my replies were still on-topic, despite calling out those who are intentionally trying to trash this thread, like you and your 8 sarcastic off-topic replies.

You’re not my dad!

Put that monocle on or don’t even bother running for CSM next year. The Monoclave controls this game. Many think that Goonswarm controls New Eden, bah!! We are the true EVE deep state!
