so because you can soak more bullets than a tank, while standing still, I'm unskilled.

No my good friend, you misunderstand.

You're unskilled because you clearly have either terrible aim, terrible luck, a terrible Internet connection, or a combination of all or some of these, and you are unable to find a way to deal with said obstacle, and thusly blame others for "cheating".

well, seeing as previous data supports my aim being sufficient at the specified distance and conditions, it is either my luck, or my internet, neither of which I can change. my luck because luck is an abstract concept born of a need to try and define random chance, when it is just that, random. My internet because I only rent a room.

now if I could change abstract concepts, or had enough to spring for some decent internet, pay rent, and eat people food, then hey, I'll suck it up and just sit in my tank since my aim isn't the best, but with my rail firing when I fire it, not 2 seconds(on average) after it doesn't entirely need to be.

there's a quote that I partially recall. goes something like: The fields in which I am an unparalleled expert are exceedingly few, and the fields in which I am invariably inept are numbered beyond measure.

unfortunately, FPS games fall right between those two. not great, better than terrible. then again, I can throw knives, fire a recurve bow accurately, and I can make a chicken fettuccine alfredo that would bring tears to your eyes. so should they ever make a game where I can do all that, watch out.

I'm going to go sit on a mountain with my tank now.

The idea that were just wanting to take over the entirety of MH is absolutely absurd, if EoN wanted to take MH, we would. I'm gonna go crazy trying to defend or explain our actions to people who are too short sighted to see that we don't actually want to control everything, that would turn what's supposed to be a fun GAME into a job. I already work 8-12 hours a day and this game is supposed to be a way to relax and unwind after a long and ****** day at work. I give up trying to force people to understand that we started to dominate MH after everyone started backing out just do that the masses would actually have a reason to rise up and "rebel" against "The great oppressor". Truth be told, its bringing corps into PC that wouldn't otherwise be there, and that's good for everyone because we need more corps with PC experience. If you don't want EoN to hold the majority of MH, keep fighting, get better, get more organized, start learning some actual tactics, and give us some decent fights in PC instead of this unorganized turkey shoot that it currently is. Its up to you to figure out where to invest your SP to make you an efficient player at your chosen path, when you enter a fight you had better be prepared to field the best gear you can, and play to win. KDR has zero meaning in PC, only the win. Its never a good idea to enter a fight against an enemy that you know full well as to being able to use top end gear, and use it well, while bringing n militia gear for yourself, and then crying on the forums saying that said enemy team are a bunch or try hands. I'm gonna let you in on some news about EoN. When we started out in DUST we had maybe 5 corps in the alliance, it was started before alliances were even able to be listed, and we all had no idea what we were doing in PC. We gave it a try, lost a few fights, learned from the failures. That's how we got where we are today. Don't let the losses discourage you, the only way to get better is to play against better players. You don't learn anything from winning all the time. Give it time and maybe it won't be such a slaughter every battle and some of you might even make names for yourselves as kings and queens of the indi corps. Who knows, maybe one day when this game is actually fixed a all the mechanics are actually working, this PC stomping experience will have made some of you into he top corps in this game. First you have to practice though. Think of this "war" as that. Expensive practice, and hard lessons. Learn from each fight and watch what the other corps you're going against do, figure out what works and what doesn't. Only then can you yourselves grow and evolve as a corporation and continue to get better. Comes down to this. EoN fought for everything it currently has, and were not about to just roll over and die because a bunch of pissed off snubbed out gamers on the interwebs are unsatisfied with the current standings in PC. If you don't like the rules, follow the rules, reach the top, and change the rule, but you have to be willing to put in the time and effort to get there. WE'RE THE BAD GUYS SO THAT YOU ALL HAVE A REASON TO GET INTERESTED IN PC! TL;DR Read the second word of each paragraph.

I'm serious about the post though, there's only one way to get better, and we are playing the bad guy here. Its working though, more corps are getting into PC than ever before and that's never going to be a bad thing for this game. The Rick roll was just to add a little fun to the long rant.

Some EoN douchebag makes a rickroll, CCP is in here sucking him off like it's their last opportunity. Something tells me we're going to see a repeat of the BoB and t20 scandal in a month or two. U mad bro? My post was well thought out and planned, had a concise point, and valid issues. It was not some ****** crying on the forums about nerf this or buff that, it also was not another death to "______" thread, or some idiot trolling for the sake of trolling. If you take the time to read between the lines on these forums and filter out the crap (there is a lot of it) you will notice that actual questions that are asked with valid concern are answered as best as the Devs can, or even trolled by the Devs themselves. We're all here to have fun, so stop being a useless bag of smashed assholes and try and enjoy the game. Attack us, please. There's lots of us EoN douche bags that you can poke with sticks.

You are correct sir, because even a response saying "we're thinking about this" could cause miss information to circulate and have a public outrage. This is the internet after all, and people will complain about pretty much anything. Ps. My boyfriend really enjoys that I'm a pole smoker. So that's not much of an insult. 2/10, give it another try.

This "Cheating Canadian" misses tuck and his pseudo angry sense of humor.

Woah woah there; There was some nice positive information in there (even if we are going to war with each other), and the "rick roll" was just a little side joke, not the premise of the entire speech. It's not like his joke invalidates anything he has to say originally. Next time, calm down and just read the details, don't let your emotions fool you. the details: dipshit made a joke. dev's come in here and comment on the joke. devs stalwartly refuse to speak in any topics about the future of their game. the joke made: it hasn't been funny in almost a decade. the punchline: that's just how out of touch CCP is. Or, they have people with a vested interest in seeing EoN succeed, and have been feeding them exactly how certain exploits work for months. It would explain how they know all the newest exploits the moment a patch drops. not within a day, within 15 minutes of a patch, some EoN prick is already using the newest glitch in the system to cheat their way to the top. this would suggest that someone is going through every patch in advance and checking the code for exactly how every little thing works, or insider information from someone who's been playing the dev build for the month prior. Very interesting. May I borrow your tinfoil hat some time? Life must be so much more interesting in your head what with the CIA feeding you secret information as to why everyone better than you must be cheating.

Yeah, I guess winning a fight when it's rigged in your favor by the devs gets boring, so you have to squat on the forums. Please read. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/DunningGÇôKruger_effect The DunningGÇôKruger effect The DunningGÇôKruger effect is a cognitive bias in which unskilled individuals suffer from illusory superiority, mistakenly rating their ability much higher than average. This bias is attributed to a metacognitive inability of the unskilled to recognize their mistakes.[1] Actual competence may weaken self-confidence, as competent individuals may falsely assume that others have an equivalent understanding. David Dunning and Justin Kruger of Cornell University conclude, "the miscalibration of the incompetent stems from an error about the self, whereas the miscalibration of the highly competent stems from an error about others".[2] The phenomenon was first tested in a series of experiments performed by Dunning and Kruger.[2][3] Dunning and Kruger noted earlier studies suggesting that ignorance of standards of performance is behind a great deal of incompetence. This pattern was seen in studies of skills as diverse as reading comprehension, operating a motor vehicle, and playing chess or tennis. Dunning and Kruger proposed that, for a given skill, incompetent people will: tend to overestimate their own level of skill; fail to recognize genuine skill in others; fail to recognize the extremity of their inadequacy; recognize and acknowledge their own previous lack of skill, if they are exposed to training for that skill. Dunning has since drawn an analogy ("the anosognosia of everyday life")[1][4] with a condition in which a person who suffers a physical disability because of brain injury seems unaware of or denies the existence of the disability, even for dramatic impairments such as blindness or paralysis.
