Ah yes, Lucas the Ganker, endorsed by Dracvlad.
Those are compelling credentials.

Is that the new strategy for āoptimizingā the game? You go with the nerfbat where players are still playing and have fun?
Maybe they should fix null instead.
Also do you realize that for every Freighter that dies, a couple dozen Catalysts go as well, which kinda inflates those numbers.
Salty again, he has clearly stated what ganking he has done several times in several threads over the years.
Well, heās made some claims, which (even if they were true) wouldnāt make him a ganker.
Heās kinda like the guy who tells you the story about how he led the counterstrikeforce at Ab Bang in 1966. Yah, I mean, maybe, but itās like the stories you tell Dracvlad⦠Ya know?
The character he posts on is not a ganker, obviously.
I make mistakes I am not infallible, however I am not sure that this was the final tank buff. I will have to go search further on that, when I have the time.
I am still amused however over Scipio not admitting he is wrong on my locate bookmark story. People are currently doing this in Stain, which is more difficult now than when I did it. That was a Dracvlad story that people said was not true, and yet it wasā¦
You mean one example in which you were flat-out wrong about a forum mechanic in your desperate attempt to save face after being called out on your hypocrisy, and your other example where I invited you to set the record straight about your stance, offered to attribute any error to a misquote on my behalf, and then edited my post to make clarification of the situation?
Yeah, thatās not what lying is about. But someone with an utter lack of integrity like you wouldnāt be able to understand.
You actually havenāt. You could say the name of a ganker if you wanted, but you donāt - and I think I know why⦠because I wonāt be impressed - will I?
Right there, you could have typed a name with less effort than it would take to make up an excuse for why you canāt name your ganker character - I think you are just making claims, but thereās no evidence to back up anything you say.
It goes without saying, if you didnāt want people to be impressed by your ganking history, you wouldnāt bring it up at all - right? Itās not like a one time thing with you, a quick Google search shows that youāve spent a decade on these forums, saying pretty much the same things over and over. Sometimes, you repeat yourself almost verbatim!
Are you using cut and paste?
It was. There was also another one that was minor by comparison that came before it. If I remember correctly, it was when most ships received a buff to their hull HP. I canāt remember the date of this one but it was a few years before that.
Keep in mind that prior to the end of 2011, there was no āHP versus suicide-gankingā argument because gankers got full insurance payouts, meaning that there were no inhibitions to suicide-ganking whatsoever. But like I wrote in my 2011 post that I linked earlier in this thread, the CONCORD insurance change would actually shift ganking to a much more intense and volume-driven affair, and it did.
Haha! lawlz! I laff! OMGWTFBBQLOL!
Look at me! Iām DMC! And Iām posting more things without offering any context or proof, as usual! BS pudknocker ratass lol!
I think he has ganked more freighters then you.
I think if that was true, heād link the character name.
Oh, so you are⦠were⦠an amateur, with big opinions?
Well it was a joke, but Aiko is not really a freighter ganker. You must have ganked a fair few during the various burn Jita events.
Iām not dismissing it outright, but a āhe said she saidā personal spat on the forums is a completely different endeavor from talking about the gameās actual history.
Either way, Iām not seeing any hate directed at you. If you want to see real hate, look two posts below yours.
No Lucas, you canāt claim this. You still havenāt provided any evidence that you were ever a ganker at all, and you just conceded that you were never a ācareerā ganker. In the Gevlon blog, you emphasize that you didnāt solo gank. So you lack experience, and actual gankers (not you) are the ones who have informed opinions about ganking.
You are just a theorycrafter, who maybe joined a few fleets a decade ago.
He has told you again and again what he did, do you ever listen?
Dracvlad, yes, I heard about the time he once landed on three targets at once. Amazing!
It might be true, it might not, but it doesnāt indicate expertise. In fact, quite the opposite. What ganker hasnāt landed on three targets at once? The fact that he saw this as special, something noteworthy, is indicative of how little experience he has.
You have to think about that happening in the context of a burn Jita campaign.
āBurn Jitaā wasnāt real ganking anyway. Not ganking as we know and understand it, at least. It was something that a huge chunk of players joined in on, many of whom had no interest in ganking, and wouldnāt continue to gank afterward.
Correct. When evaluating whether something is an insult or not, you have to look for an intent to hurt someone in the exchange. I really donāt see the latter as meeting this criteria. It would be like you calling Aiko a gankbear or something.
I most certainly can claim this.
Well, you can of course make any claim you want.
What you canāt do is expect anyone to take you seriously.
