Sorry Cruis, I quit playing it. Too many holes in the combat system that allow pirates and other scum to blow you to pieces without repercussions. Even in what is supposed to be secure space. One tactic comes to mind right off the bat... If you fire on an innocent player, the cops and the local navy come after you, blowing up your ship. Now, they gather a few buddies and go searching asteroid belts for miners. One guy takes the first shot at you, making him a criminal and a target for the authorities. The rest of his group now has free reign to fire on you without worrying about the cops shooting them. The first shooter is in a noob ship, so he loses what amounts to nothing. He pods back to the nearest station, gets a brand new noob ship and they go looking for the next victim in a mining ship that has no weaponry. Stay away from this game Cruis. It's Crap with a capital C. Unless you enjoy spending hour upon hour watching a mining laser reducing asteroids to pebbles. Which is what you will be doing while you wait for your skill training timers to run their course. It will take any new player in Eve two years to train up to a skill level sufficient enough to compete in the point and click space battles. I can sum it up in one word..... BORING!

Yes, SH III is the shiznitz of sub sims.

I'm more concerned that the VP was trying to screw Texas out of a $7.00 hunting stamp fee. But then again I guess they don't have a Dan Quayle stamp for your hunting license. edit: Now we get to see "who" is above the law

*Hands up* Which is what happens when lawyers get involved in anything, especially divorces. Prez has good advice. Don't remarry. Do what I did. Find yourself a lonely widow.

Poor Jack, He tries to remove the splinters from the eyes of his brothers and fails because he can't see for the logs in his own eyes. Let's say that he succeeds in his campaign to remove the things he hates from society. Will it stop people from killing other people? Will it stop the desperados from jacking your car? Not likely. By the tone of his reference to the court cases being tried, Jack has conveniently forgotten the most fundamental tenet of christianity. "Forgiving" Jack can try to recreate Eden all he wants but it's not going to happen until God says so and pissing and moaning about mans inhumanity to man is just wasted breath that serves only to add additional Carbon Dioxide to the atmosphere. I think, when it finally dawns on Jack,that he has wasted his efforts, he will go "POSTAL".

Sad to say but that's how business has been operating for a long time now.You get used like a napkin until you're in tatters, then thrown away in favor of a new napkin.

If I might interject, Consoles are mostly bulletproof PC toys. Built to withstand the torture a child can dish out. I agree that they are built for idiots,which is what our children are being turned in to with the use of the almighty electronic babysitter known as the television. Consoles will get their share of the market but, the PC isn't likely to go the way of the Dodo bird anytime soon. I have seen the 360 on HDTV. It looks really nice but, I'm not going to run out and buy a high end TV to play games on. On a regular television the 360 looks no different than the X-box. With a 19" LCD monitor, I'll stick with PC games for a long long time.

Lightning also invokes the homotron theory.

Electricity is like water. It will take the path of least resistance.Repeat after me.... Ohmmmmmm Ohmmmmm Ohmmmmmm

Blanco and Nagin should be placed right behind the levies during the next hurricane season. Give them a taste of their own ignorance.

Who was the cop? Barney Fife? ROTFLMAO

My ship wasnt moveing and I was forced to watch as my ship slowly lost life and boom...GD it Dust Covered Restore button hit.. WHY THE F is it doing this only on certain Planets Some atmospheres are severely detrimental to your hull. Where did you try to land? Jupiter? Saturn? Gas planets will make you go boom real fast.

My pilots are good at lunching my shuttlecraft, usually into the ground upside down. I launch drones myself, wait for them to fill,(they don't have to be full) retrieve, empty, launch. Lather, rinse and repeat until Shuttle is full, return to Command Craft, empty Shuttle Cargo Bay, Do it again and again until your Command Craft is packed to the gills with ore. Pack all of the shuttles and any other asset that has cargo space. You'll be surprised at the amount of scratch you can generate in a short timeframe..

ooooooo Telemetry.

I think it's more defecation than defination You're right Nomad, I didn't lose that much game time. Doesn't make the game any less boring. Still not an excuse for sending out new PWs via unencrypted E-mail and providing a non-working link to their website. I was more concerned with my account details, such as CC info being stolen. Hopefully they have all that info locked down But, I'm not going to take that chance.

First of all,How would it have damaged their servers? The only problem, that I can see from this event, would be people having their accounts stolen. At the very worst people could have had their characters deleted after being robbed of everything they owned. My major beef was the fact that they sent new passwords through unencrypted E-mail. Passwords, like the one sent to me, that didn't work. The E-mail also contained bogus links to the account management section of their website. Let's face it, The honeymoon is over for CCP and Eve Online and the players are still paying to beta test a sloppy piece of code. I don't expect to see any of you guys in the Eve universe so, The bottom line is I'm done with it. Period

In Eve.....Some times There just aren't enough rocks. And I'm not talking asteroids either. Eve is no different than any other MMOG. The developers have suffered the same brainfart as every other MMO developer. They listen and cater to the players that squeak the loudest, even if it means screwing the little guys. Oh BTW, Timber Wolf Corporation withdraws it's invitation to our friends on this board, due to the fact that TWC doesn't give out free ships to anyone for any reason. If you don't want to join us and help the corp then screw you. Get your Dreadnoughts yourselves ; I quit Eve again after attempting to log on this past Friday, only to find that some Hackers had been trying to compromise people's accounts. So, CCP in their finite wisdom, decided to reset the passwords on the affected accounts. One being mine. Then they sent out new passwords, through unencrypted E-mail. Guess what? My new PW was no good and I couldn't even get into account management to change it. Three days of paid gameplay down the tubes. Oh well. Eve was and is another grand idea executed poorly. As long as they are making money off of brainless suckers they will thrive but, I don't see that happening too much longer.

I would be happy to exchange a bag of anthracite for the contents of the box Pictures, we want pictures of the little butthead's face when he opens it. If the little terror is that bad..... nothing a razor strap couldn't fix

And the beat goes on.... Beating people out of their cash. ROTFLMAO.

If any of you pilots are looking for a straight shooting Corporation to join in Eve, look me up. Timber Wolf Corporation.... Ziona V, Moon I, Imperial Armaments station. No taxes... No heavy handed rules.... We have the resources to put you in any ship that you are licensed to fly.

I'll just have my doctor write me a script for Tamiflu, That is, if I come down with the Flu. They can keep the Flu shot cocktail.

We're embalmed already,from what we eat, so what's with all the hubub? I'm sure all of us have been treated with Merthiolate on numerous occasions as children. BAM! Right into an open wound. Burn baby burn. I ain't dead yet. Too many peeps put heir faith in modern medicine rather than allowing their Homo Sapien robot the task of eliminating contagions. As Jag would say, "Survival of the fittest" Contagions have been the Gene pool cleaners for millennia. The CDC can keep their flu shots. I'll take my chances with my own immune system.

LMAO

Santa has a nice shiny lump of coal for your stocking. Besides, Santa's elves make toys, not handguns.
