Absolutely. One of my fondest memories in the game was a gank attempt in hisec, after which I stumbed upon the perpetrator in an Orca when I was in a Hurricane. Oddly enough, it was the only attempt I ever had to deal with in a T1 Hauler.

Thanks bro, ahh yea I wasn’t using that it was a type of code breaking.

Numerology seems like something else.

Also It was more a joke the guy is obviously not GigX.

If you try hard enough you can make anything into anything else there is always a way with numbers.

It’s a _trip_, that’s all I’ll say.

Indeed. I still laugh at people who think that 666 is the actual equivalent of the _name_ of a man. Most everything can be subverted to represent anything one wants, even people. I used to live next to a mythomaniac. There were lots of days when I’d cross “people” in the lobby and turned out “they” were _him_.  
Illusions, manipulations, assumptions, doubt and numbers can all be used to create fictive narratives that fit in one of the “slots” of our realities.

Believe in crazy stuff?  
lol what do I believe in?  
I myself do not even know what I believe in, this universe is way to complex to figure out.  
I have theories and that is it but I can never say for sure.

I do not mind entertaining him if he cut’s out all the aggressiveness that he has shown to a lot of people.

He seems pissed at everybody and uses EVE’s PvP as an excuse to debase and insult people. I don’t know what crawled up that guy’s butt but all he’s doing is proving the “toxic” legend of EVE right.  
It’s not even needed. Most of the threads against PvP or ganking are either alts or alts of alts, lol.  
People on this forum act like if one grindbear alt asks for something to CCP they’re going to scramble knock over everything on their desk and start working on it immediately. It’s ridiculous and needlessly dramatic.

Feel free to “elevate the discussion” then and contribute positively to the community. I observe that so far you’ve only gossiped about people, made broad sweeping generalizations and stereotypes, and played the role as cheerleader on behalf of other forum posters. Which seems susceptible to the exact criticism you’re willing to dish out.

If there’s better conversations to be had, just do it. Don’t just gossip about people.

I do several things at once too. It’s a miracle if I have 10mins to sit and do a mission.

Have a good flight ✈

We already butt heads on our first meeting and the animosity wasn’t even warranted so I really don’t want to “elevate” _anything_ with _you, sir_

Edit. Matter of fact, saying someone is an “alt” seems to be expedient to dismiss anyone in this forum so I’ll just call you an alt and forget you even exist.

Yeah, let’s reflect on that.

Your first message to me was a condescending “lesson” about how people care about the real world more than a spaceship pixel video game, I replied to you in a [tough but earnest](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/an-open-and-honest-letter-to-ccp-from-an-alliance-leader/379870/971) manner. It was clear you couldn’t even handle that because you then tell me:

🙄 And it’s somehow _my_ fault I just didn’t roll over and kiss your feet in gratitude when you gave unsolicited obvious advice delivered to me in a “are you this stupid” tone.

I had honestly forgotten that it was _you_ I had this interaction with, but now it’s pretty clear you have larger problems that only you can deal with. Good luck out there.
