And then there is that.

It's not as simple as "well people gonna do what people gonna do, just ignore them and help out the rest". Any action you take that helps promotes online play is going to impact the belief structure certain people have about competition, what is considered respectable and what isn't. When you...

You are talking about the benefits, yes. You are generating hype for something as you always do....and yet still you have done nothing to address the issue of online player mentality being corrupted. This does not happen with street fighter because street fighter was huge before online play ever...

Yup. Fun thing is, you don't really need to have so many characters in eve. You can get by just fine with one. When you've played as long as I have though, you start to feel like... hey, I got a lot of isk. I can afford to use all these extra tools without paying real money, so why not? It's...

Two are mains for pvp/pve, and can fulfill nearly any support role when necessary. Three are characters in training to assist the first two with heavy support and logistics. One is an alt to watch the market in Amarr, and to feed an account plex. One in Dodixie for similar reasons. One in...

Eleven, for myself.

Game over how the hell are you gonna "focus" on something like online play which is "easier" to do, and then expect people to make the transition? They won't. Last time we did it took more drama then a community should ever have to go through to evolve. Even my own mentality was a casualty of...

You can't put too much emphasis into online play because scrubs get complacent and will refuse to travel. You essentially become an enabler for their shitty "online is just as good as offline" attitude and end up creating a hierarchy of online players claiming they are better than offline...

I would pro-actively seek people out if you want them to show up for DOA 4. My understanding is that while UK players do indeed exist in good number, they are a little difficult to gather.

Guess what jackass? That's called customer service. Wow, here's another gem. Un.... believable...

Sounds more like he was just a complete dick.

You mean a graphically challenged game with poor writing and only the illusion of freedom? Not my cup of tea. Sad too, because I actually like star wars -- that game just isn't star wars. Galaxies had the right idea before they fucked themselves over with NGE and the failcascade that followed.

I see my character every time I dock up. Been able to walk around and do nothing for like a year, not that it has much point since it's a game about spaceships. All it really does is give you an opportunity to hide from the game itself.

The way you quell the online vs offline conflict is by never allowing it to take place. You make it very clear from the get-go that online play is fun, however not legitimate from a competitive standpoint. The easiest way to do this is by having every community leader, regardless of website or...

I was really trying to stay silent through all this because I get tired of looking like the guy igniting the drama fire, but since it's already going.... Uhhh, no. You're not anything on the level that he is. Nobody is. And it's not about being "wierd". I don't even think I've ever met someone...

The status quo is a beautiful thing.

Choir. And no vemom is necessary, I think pretty much anyone with half a lick of sense has known what you were doing here from the moment you started posting.

Except that you can't do it for a living. Not with fighting games, not as they are now. That was the theory behind CGS.... but look what happens when you make your community dependent on the kind of organization that has absolutely no respect for it? You get people who have no accomplishments...

There aren't many people in Texas I would travel that far just to see, honestly. If I was to travel anywhere to re-up with friends, it would be on the east coast. If they were legit, grassroots tournaments they probably wouldn't be competing with each other. But seeing as how you have set up a...

Trophies were invented as proof of accomplishment. Money is given out as an incentive to attend. Big difference. Yea, you'll also see people playing the game who don't actually want to play the game. If you wanna throw money at an event, go nuts. Not saying you can't. Heck it will even...
