> Yes, they do.

That answer tells me everything about you.  
You are a simple guy who thinks if he plays EvE, he is better than others.  
Pathetic.  
Now I understand why people on other forums about games describe the EvE community as the most toxic ever.

PS. If you say Star Citizen makes you win, you haven’t tried to play it. Following your reasoning, this also means that EvE is a game for those who can only shoot but have problems with thinking.  
Last 8 years 30k players ± 3k … amazing achievement.  
Now I understand why EVE players have to artificially elevate themselves above others.  
For me, that’s the end of the story.

Wow. Your psychic powers are simply astounding. If I give you my palm, what else can you tell me, about me?

Let me know when it’s complete and I’ll play it.

There is no part of the game that insists you conn or or don’t conn someone. Show everyone where in EULA you accept being conned.

Ah, good response for someone who obviously got checked.

Now, please show everyone this expectation of being conned as part of being a set of can do’s for Eve Online. Ganking is allowed and some corps expect their members to gank.

But where is this expectation of being conned? If such an expectation actually existed, Eve Online would have less subdcribers and more RMT.

This is hogwash or wait Frosty had not joined your Alliance, you moved him out of Code.

Maybe he decided that he was waiting for the right time to awox you but never got the chance.

The best gank in Eve Online is when you gank the Safety and fly away with your ship still intact.

Basically, after many years of being one of Aiko’s gankers and being tired of her nonsense, and knowing high sec gankers needed a new leader, I would create an alt and train it is as an anti-ganker. I would then follow Aiko around and ganker her ship right before she ganks.

You’ll need a blog my guy.

Frosty just told me that he had known @Uriel_the_Flame longer than he had known @Aiko_Danuja and that maybe weird to bing up though it has very high expectations of the future direction which may lead to less focus on Aiko
