"Capsuleer" is "too long and too French"?

If it was going to be long and French it would be "oeuf navire du cosmos".

Maybe we're eggnauts.

This instantly made me think that the OP might be of an american origin.

Capsuleer works just fine, doesn't sound french to me. :)

I call myself 'Love Machine' or 'Thrust'. For EVE I don't know.

What sets us apart from other people/characters in Eve, according to an in-character perspective, is that we are immortal. So, we are sometimes referred to as immortal beings. But, more commonly, we are called capsuleers or pod pilots.

Out-of-character, we're just Eve players. Confused

I call myself Superior. No, really:

Some stranger: "Ohhai, I play WoW. You?"
Me: "I'm superior to you."
Some stranger: "Oh. EvE."

Capsuleer is perfect, IMO. Not really too long, and doesn't sound French at all.

Well, I can't say as to what we call ourselves, but as a gamer and an EVE player I've often been referred to as;

*ahem-ahem*

Can't really do much better than Capsuleer imo.

Elitist losers with no life is accurate too but it's a little too long. Laughing

We are often referred to as Gods by non-Capsuleers, something to do with that whole immortality thing. I prefer that Very Happy

iam wondering how the hell you can say anything other than "Pilots" :)
with recruitment forum full of "LF PvP Pilots",battler reports full of "750 pilots in system" Mothership pilots,Titan Pilots,Hulk Pilots... eve players are Pilots goddamnit:)
then there is a forum topic about "How do we call eve players" full of silly answers :)

Everybody I ever met who plays or knows of this game refers to me as an EVE player. It works, stop touching it.

Capsuleer isnt long or french, it just only works for other EVE players, its an ingame term. I mean if we're going to call ourselves something, keep it at something that doesn't need explaining, since there already is enough of that coming when someone asks 'what's EVE?'.
