I'm willing to accept 1.7 noobs as vets now. otherwise there wouldn't be enough vets to pubstomp the newberries into submission.

I'll allow it but only if you make the noobs cry

Another issue is the player trading. Why CCP did not give us this most basic feature when the game was first released is beyond me. We were all so excited when we finally got it, but were all once again let down to see that we can't even trade the things WE WANTED TO TRADE IN THE FIRST PLACE. If CCP were as community oriented as they claim to be they would see that what the REAL Dust community wants are corp battles, more maps, more gamemodes, a pilot dropsuit finally, and more interaction with the downtime room.

This really is a good game. The lore is great, the fitting diversity is there, and so is the gameplay besides so many fatal errors and lag. It's just simply developed poorly. Instead of making the game better, they simply deploy nerffixes to shut the whiners up. I know of way too many mercs who have quit this game because the things they've worked so hard to spec into are now almost completely ineffective.

Hey Blaze and Pancake o7

And you can't just buff everything because then everything will be OP. Don't you remember when they nerfed ALL of the rifles (hated that by the way)? CCP (or the CPMs at the time) doesn't weapons that are too effective.

Vet status is officially 1.8, but we're considering Vet Ranks, Brigadier Vet, Major Vet and soforth. The cutoff should start around the time I started, so my rank will be General Vet, and the rest of you are bloody peasants. I hope that clears things up
