I don't know, a cal scout with over 500 armor is still pretty scrubby imho.

Some one should say it, if it hasn't been already.

The insult is so ubiquitous it no longer has any meaning on this forum.

I have read this insult lobbied at every conceivable type of player in a vain attempt to feel dominant over others.

If everyone is a scrub we all are. That word is the vernacular crutch of this game.

As is "HTFU", "git gud", and "Welcome to New Eden".

These throw away phrases put off new players (it did me) and bore everyone else.

They are lazy catch phrases and belie a false sense of entitlement that actives have.

It's the same type of environment a Fraternity lords over it's pledges. "We were hazed so now it's your turn."

It's lazy, unproductive, and uniquely male.

A Calscout is incapable of reaching 500 armour.
Even if you were to fill both lowslots are proto with complex plates you wouldn't break 400.

Where did this number come from?

(Not agreeing/disagreeing on the topic of armour tanking Calscouts though).

"Scrub" is not a thing anymore.

It was on the "killed by" screen. They shall remain nameless, but he was using a proto cal scout and had over 520 armor. 80 some odd shields left.
I had no clue as to the cal scout slot layout. Now I'm confused too...

You obviously read something terribly wrong.

As Arkena said, a Cal Scout cannot reach 500 armor with only 2 low slots.

Dear Eruditus

Please consider the unimaginative banter seen presently in this forum as a spurious test. Hereupon, all who play Dust shall be tested by fire. By convention, members of this community, through repetitious insult and degradation, grind at the souls of said noobs in an attempt to winnow the weak from those with an iron constitution.

Any member who cannot, with a proud and clear voice, speak his/her mind in these forums and by consequence suffer the inevitable rash and moronic scurrility to follow, is deemed as unfit to play this game and will therefore be summarily bid adieu and asked to donate ISK upon their departure.

It is this inhumane treatment and, yes, hazing ritual, that divides Dust 514 from all other gamer communities. For nowhere else does such an unruly brotherly hatred drip from the tongue as in the words spoken here. I, personally, do not condone this behavior and find it reprehensible. Please accept my personal apology for any suffering that you may have sustained, as I extend this sentiment to the entire community.

But there is a saying, "When in Rome ..." so in the manner patterned by our Dust brethren, STFU.

See you on the battlefield,
Clone D

The hatred was worse on Socom. Dust is my little pony compared to that.

maybe it was the booze talking...

I don't know, a cal scout with over 500 armor is still pretty scrubby imho.

With maxed prof... 383 armor is the max, stop QQ about caldari they have the lowest ehp of all the suits. They just see you first. The shared team vision on the other hand...

A scrub is anyone who performs any undesireable action.

Anything from redline camping and protostomping
to FOTMs and AFKs

In short:

a scrub is a guy who can't get no love from me.

As are redline snipers, most would agree.
