Never got into a bar fight, I let others do that. That’s when I grab me some popcorn…

A: Not my point, and B: No, that’s not part of Eve, that’s just being a gatekeeping douche.

If you do that, _and_ say “docking request: accepted” while parking your car in the car park, then you have a serious problem. I suggest immediate psychotherapy.

Though if you said “docking request: denied” while parking, than you have a more serious problem on your hands and you should turn yourself into your local constabulary.

I did go “docking denied” and sought immediate help.  
He said “Don’t you worry, lots of people are having trouble making sense of everything these days. Even I… uhm…”  
I told him  
“Doctor please, I think I’m gonna crash.”  
Doctor said it’s coming but you better in cash…

While I was docking at the local Walmart parking lot, a green 2006 Subaru Outback ganked me out of my parking spot.

I proceeded to exchange words explaining how being ganked out of a parking spot had the same emotional damage akin to being held at gun point. The 80 year old granny driving her outback said “get gud, scrub.” All she cares about is her parking style

This was totally unfair, so I reported them to the local forum manager. Ted, at the customer counter, who told me that its all part of the parking lot experience. What a broken system.

Now I am calling to nerf green 2006 Subaru Outbacks. They have an unfair advantage in parking lots. Especially in winter with their all wheel drive and higher than normal, but still low ground clearance.

Who’s with me? Nerf green 2006 Subaru Outbacks!

How rude.  
I don’t have to worry about getting ganked in parking lot, this is how I park:

I don’t think she’s arguing that it _should_ be a part of Eve. Instead, I think she was more trying to say that there are haters in Eve (and everywhere else, I might add), but you shouldn’t let them keep you down or hold you back. And, that is something that I definitely agree with.

She’s off on an irrelevent tangent over one-upsmanship. My point is about people being wankers about paths they personally dislike (i.e. empire carebears whining about PvP, null-sec whores whining about high-sec carebears, etc.)
