Having moved up to now (5) toons, I have a bit more of a grudging respect for the gankers who regularly control a group of 5+ ships without any input broadcasting (though I can’t see them consistently pulling ganks off without software like EVE-O Preview). _Addendum: Pretty sure it’s freezing over somewhere as a result of this comment…_ ---

It is extremely tedious redoing my portrait everytime CCP decides to resize and arbitrarily crop the image. There is a reset button, and if you take multiple photos, you can click on them and I believe it will reset to that pose. It would be nice if they would add more ability to see how the portrait will actually look in your profile, as I can take a nice photo that is well framed, and then in my portrait it crops off half my face. ---

Yeah, I found the “reset” button - I was just hoping there was a master reset somewhere that would default your character pose to square one. How does one update your forum profile pic to match the in-game one? ---

Mike (Magic School Bus) got ganked today. Seriously? The loot drop was 321m ISK vs. 81 or so odd Catalysts. ---

They were bored, they “thought” it had more loot, they didn’t “realize” it was Mike (or know who Mike was), or the most likely reason: they’re Goons. ---

I don’t think CSM candidates should be exempted from PvP. They are free to campaign, other people are free to shoot them. The developer obviously agrees with me.
