So as far as I can see, this isn’t anti-ganking, it is “reverse” ganking. Because usually when you gank, you try to kill a very expensive ship with a very cheap one. Now I don’t mean to say that you ganked yourself @DrysonBennington, but I am just saying, it is a very unorthodox way to go about this trade. By all means, uh, you know, keep exploring this avenue and perhaps you will discover something that nobody else has before. With uncharted regards -James Fuchs ---

The question I have is, what is your favorite of tear box sniffling tissues? Shrugs. Don’t come at a person at work with some b.s. because you want a hand out from life. ---

Grabs a partly used tissue out of his mittens, wipes the sniffles away then proceeds to mention that Frosty was just about to replace that ship loss then stopped after reading your comment about > hand out in life That’s not very fair as this is not life it’s Eve Online… ---

Calm your mind for a moment and let your thoughts about what’s happening outside of EveOnline drift off until you decide to log out. Frosty had learnt not to include real life drama on the forums. What is done is done. You didn’t activate the kill right? It was too high perhaps? All that doesn’t matter anymore… Together let’s find a new target. Remember when Frosty committed that he is willing to log in for you? If you were an big Alliance leader calling for Capsuleers to log in. Thus is your chance. Frostpacker will back you and how _we_ mentioned before \*we will log on for you \* Read your evemail! ---

Eve Online can also teach players the basics of logistics, time management, which products should be hauled to create an effcient delivery of goods to the customers. ---
