maybe education focues more on capital letters then and SMS language killed proper grammar for all the new people, hence by capital letters u can make up the time of education thus age maybe, but age doesnt linearly connect to experience in the game

in my case i dont use capital so that i have 2x the same d, as a sort of letterrhime. to elleborate with an example of letter rhime: how much woowd would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck would chuck wood.

where w and ch are the letter rhimes

but i guess you have a point, on closer look most names are capitalized and the ones that arent are relatively new. just i dont think an advice to a new person would be: capitalize your name...more like: try to bob and weave to dodge, use shield rotation as icc, watch energy as luth, dont rush into battle cause the enemies will all stop fighting and focuse on you for ugto.

I can't begin to elaborate on how this mentality is so entirely counter-productive to what you might think.

So much potential is lost because people constantly either join whichever faction happens to have the most players or the best ships. Perhaps if players were more willing to keep things balanced themselves Developers wouldn't need to limit anyones freedom.

Umm I have been called a faction hoper before because I like to keep it equal. Its no fun to join the faction with 8 ppl when the others have 2 and 1...

Use the buddy system

Buddy system= for every one of them make sure there are 2 of you (whenever possible)

When moving up through ship classes and you want to make kills you should go with an exponential model

to kill 1 dread you should bring

-1 ugto/icc station or 2 Kluth stations
-2 dreads
-4 cruisers
-8 destroyers
-16 frigates(this one would be really funny)

Unless your Kluth then you want to double all these numbers

aaah tips for social interaction...sorry the topic name pushed me in wrong direction.

#1 never take another player serious, 90% of the time they are joking, drunk, or just plain lying:P

#2 some players expect a certain submissive attitude or they do not talk to you, ignore those people or laugh at them in their face

#3 If you are getting really good at something then a random player PM you "stop it or you get nerfed" for god sakes stop it!

#4 most people in lobby are afk so they wont respond. dont take is as an insult when its all quiet

#5 whenever you see someone rage in chat or ingame yell, laugh at them, a simple "lol" will suffice

#6 if you want ppl to put you on their ignore list, simply send many PM (personal message, command = /send name message) to that person. if you dont want ppl to ignore you, try NOT sending many many PM to ppl

#7 Doran da man, make sure you inform other people in game of this fact as many times as you can

Here're a couple of tips.

Never go through a gate or into an uncertain battle until your JD is fully or nearly charged up. I've lost count of how many times I've survived unfavorable odds because of this.

Your JD is your get out of jail free card. Always keep it handy.


When plotting a jump, don't just worry about red and white lines. Survey your jump path for enemy planetary dictors too. You don't wanna drop out of jump in hostile territory with 5 enemy ships on you and no JD. Or be late to a battle.

Yes, ever since [I started to use] SMS, I can no longer spell at all. My spelling has been ruined. I'm even told schools no longer teach cursive. They even teach that at the Boston Tea Party the Americans threw the tea into the ocean, not because we didn't want our taxes on it to go back to England, but because we didn't want it. I guess a new world order is going to happen no matter what and all the sheep that the world has for inhabitants nowadays will applaud when it does...
