It’d be funnier if it weren’t true.

But it isn’t true … There are some, sure, but not everyone who defends PvP is a “Karen”

The story isn’t true, the meme is #truth and if you can’t see why defending a Karen is wrong, it’s because you’re trying to contact my manager right now.

They are wrong, Everything, really everything is pointless and stupid. Only thing worth logging in for was ERP sex chat. But you can have that everywhere.

But I think everyone have to experience it to realize it. 🤷‍♀️

This thread is now about CCP emailing folk to tell them they have uncashed in daily rewards that they will lose (in 170 days cough) soon.

Daily Alpha rewards, I may say.

There’s three more including one in the title but yeah. They didnt use “fantastic”, like how they used it to describe the Invasion.

And the Karens log into their forum alts to downvote the original thread, hours after missing the context several times, that’s good soup.

Wow… this was funny, the pro-gank crowd swarmed and started trying to call him out, only to be told they were getting trolled, which triggered them harder than the original post. 10/10 troll thread. Too bad the sensitive kids used their alts to report it.

What context? You posted an idiotic fake story that you admit is fake. The only question here is why you haven’t been banned for openly trolling.

More like the Karens all demanded the manager at once. Also for those saying the Karen thing is about Reddit, get over yourself, you uncultured swine!

It is honestly kinda sad how the forum regulars here will keep a troll thread going as long as they feel like they have the upper hand, then mass report it as soon as they feel self conscious. Otherwise threads like this could be fun.

> To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand why ganking is all that EVE needs. The game play is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the numbers will go over a typical player’s head. There’s also the ganker’s nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into their characterization - their general philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The gankers understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of this game, to realize that it’s not just funny being toxic- it says something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike ganking truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn’t appreciate, for instance, the humor in ganker’s existential catchphrase “Calm down, miner,” which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev’s Russian epic Fathers and Sons I’m smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as CCP’s genius unfolds itself on their computer screens. What fools… how I pity them. 😂 And yes by the way, I DO have a ganker tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It’s for the ladies’ eyes only- And even they have to demonstrate that they’re within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand.

Between the hairspray from the Karens and the unwashed smell from the Neckbeards it’s getting hard to breathe in this thread, oh well.

Yes. Of course that’s the same people.  
First they troll a thread …  
… then they report it.

The same people.
