You didn’t really need to add the bigoted bullshit and just as reference “god is great” was and is still a warcall of Christians.

Yes rocks are more sharp on planets or moons with no or very little atmosphere because erosion by wind/rain forces is reduced.

As an aside how was the fact he used to fight bears for fun not in a school book? You want engagement tell them Abraham Lincoln used to drop haymakers on bears for fun.

Yeah, people are dumb we get that.

From a glance it seems so yes.

I’m not sure I caught the reference.

Mandatory vote, ranked choice, popular no electoral

They’re literally calling him a useful idiot… That means something in security circles.

I’m aware, I’m just pointing out that there’s a word for it.

Abrahamic, they’re all sects of Abraham.

You’re supposed to stop and report it so they can come and get it so no one hits it and ends up more squishy then intended.

The activity of enjoying the game, cool great point.

It’s not a good argument to not play, it’s a good argument that you’re one of those elitist douchebags I was warning people about. You’re literally spouting elitist in game combat corp propaganda dude. Most of them are emulating Nazis or Warhammer cults you know that right, it’s a running joke that people that buy it are rubes.

I wouldn’t start pointing fingers on that one box, you’ll lose.

You’ve only offered criticism and gone on at length about how your opinion is correct however weird or dumb that might be.

I quoted it in context, how did I misframe it? You quite literally framed it and hung it up yourself.

You must have failed to notice that you not being part of the game recently reduces the effect of your statements, it doesn’t say all bolster them. Also neat, you could have saved us all the time and just said you didn’t enjoy the game.

I don’t believe there is anything fun about mining. It’s just an activity that when you believe you’ve sufficiently secured yourself enough you can do with relative minimal investment in it. Usually the people who mine the most aren’t enjoying Eve, they are enjoying the conversations and the Netflix they are watching on the side. About the only thing tickling the dopamine with mining is getting to think you are getting ahead from doing a comparatively less stressful activity for longer than other people doing riskier activities more prone to failure and doing so for less amount of time, allowing you to fantasize about how you will spend your gains in the future. Mining barely has any user involvement as a game mechanic in Eve, there are idle games with more user interaction.

I think that is pretty self explanatory.

And if you think the gankers aren’t mining, you really haven’t gotten out of your solar system to explore. You seem to be stuck within the bubble even within the game, and you will be socially manipulated for it.

Not at all, that said the vast majority is done by contracted mining corps. If the mining corps shut down today within 3 months the game would be entirely different and mining would be a necessity for all but the ultra rich. Similarly aren’t you in a socially manipulated bubble as well? You’re spouting literal in-game billboard propaganda.

So gankers also aren’t playing correctly to you, what exactly is the point of the game again according to you? Who’s playing right enough for you?

Yeah no matter what you do in it is a major investment in time.

Ok that’s a very good argument as to why you hate mining. It’s not however a good excuse for anyone else to not like it.

Do what you please, don’t be an elitist, it’s one why people don’t even try to play. Similarly you say there’s no engagement but people presumably like you tend to heckle and try to murder miners because they “aren’t playing the game” though most of the resources in the game are available solely because they’d been mined, no miners no resources… You know like an economy.

I’m a miner, my father was a miner, my mother’s a miner, my father’s father was a miner.

Yeah some pressure you sure but I just stayed with newbie guilds and turned to helping people instead.

Honestly some of the technically non combat classes are quite fun. It’s been awhile since I’ve been on but I have more money than I could honestly figure out what to do with just from mining.

That said yeah even mining has spreadsheets, which is both neat and kinda daunting.

EvE is similar but with a functional economy including scammers, thieves and general douchebags… And spaceships, is pretty fun but extremely addicting and technical.

Common sense is implicit bias dude.
