There are certainly times a FUS-RO-DAH would be useful in matches.

No, I don't like RL stuff being dragged in at all and that name is so far back in our history, it seems stupid that they'd have that namne for anything.
Could you take that seriously calling mercs that? We are clone scum, accept it.
Sub human seems more fitting, upgrade our clones natural survivability and I believe we'd be worthy of a cooler name.
Something to do with data transfer seems more appropriate seen as our consciousness lives on regardless getting endlessly transferred from onre clone to the next. Our bodies are temporary whether we like it or not as clones.
Necromancer would be more appropriate, but iv just taken the name from a classic book that influenced hacking cultures greatly and inspired the matrix.

Got it. Barneys. For two reasons.
1) in one regional slang here in england 'having a barney' means having a disagreement or fight.
2) Because when we go into battle, we 'SUIT UP!'

In the RP circles, duster is a common more casual name for us. We fight in the dust, so that's why we are dusters.
Clone soldier/trooper is the other name I use often for a more official term.
Then there's the dust bunny, which is more a derogatory name as you said already.
And then there's the infomorph, a person whose self is only defined by the information its brain carries, which could be a common name for both EVE and DUST players.
I have also heard the name operative being thrown about. It sounds like a too broad of a term for me, but it could work.
Elysian also sounds good to me.

Infoscum or infomorph is fine for me.
Elysion is far too great a title for us scamming, awoxxing, evasive ground dwelling rats, seriously, we do not deserve anything decent as a that.

You'd be out of work the moment you displayed that attitude toward your human overseers, your consciousness destroyed as well.

How are capsuleers any different? They commit mass slaughter every day in the name of profit, they are equally worried about losing their precious spaceships. They are only copies as well, and also infomorphs. They might have more ISK and have more firepower, but this is only within their own closed capsuleer circles. In the grand scheme of things, the Empires still hold the ultimate power. Unless you plan on calling capsuleers with equal terms, you're being too radical.
The extreme cynicism TechMech shows, and the overglorified power Luna claims are both too radical. We're soldier, not gods, not scum unworthy of the air we breathe, we're simply mercenaries.

What cogs? What machine? Both clone soldiers and capsuleers are part of a larger machine that benefit the empires, removing either one right now would have big negative impacts.

Overglorified power? We are immortal. Even the police force that governs us is mortal. If we wanted, if the capsuleers and mercenaries set aside our petty squabbles for a short time, we could rule this galaxy. We are the true power now.

Right up until the point CONCORD shows up and blows every single capsuleer ship into oblivion. CONCORD has cyno-jammed every single empire system to oblivion, making it impossible for anything larger than a battleship to enter, and CONCORD has shown that they are an unmatched power. They may be immortal, but overall there might around 500,000 capsuleers and clone soldiers, in comparison to trillions upon trillions of civilians and soldiers. Even with the power we have, our odds of beating them are very slim.

Its all a point of view, yours seems to be backing nothing so what exactly is your point?
Do you want to be some deluded special cupcake when really your an asset and nothing more, far below that of the lowest paid worker, your mind freely bought and sold by corporations regardless of what you think.
Comparing capsuleers to dusters, wtf lol.

....How do you figure that? We are immortal, and are worth more than an entire platoon by ourselves. The capsuleers just need someone to take down CONCORD's HQ... which is where us mercs come in. I'm sorry, but the fact that mortals are a match for immortals makes me laugh.
