Ok, you've had your fun now get back to hauling and mining.

I'm sure you know lots about the war, the goons and BoB from a friend of a friend of a friend of your sister but move along now troll.

Why do I have to know anything about goon and BoB to see when people are being arrogant and pretentious?

Also, post with your main.

I didn't think the comment about the relative costs of tech1 vs tech2 was either arrogant nor pretentious.
The truth of the matter is that I can buy 2 HACS for the price of one Battleship. That gives me a different perspective than those who have the situation reversed.
It costs me less to lose a HAC than to lose a BS, and so I am more willing to fly them in to combat.

Also, you can only lose what you fly, and I don't see many Goon HAC fleets tbh.

Actually Avon, according to your statistics you've only flown a HAC into combat 4 times, you much prefer T2 BCs, BSs and AFs. It could be me reading the numbers wrong, perhaps you could ask DB Preacher to help me interpret the statistics?

Hey, I said I was more willing to fly them, not that I was actually any good in them!

What I was actually saying is that I am more willing to fly HACs than those who pay more than a BS for them, rather than I am more willing to fly a HAC than a BS - you just misinterpreted my rather plain English.
Personally, I like frigates better, although I have to confess to a bit of an Eos fetish right now ..

You know, all you guys who jumped all over Thunk just made yourselves look like complete *******s. Amazing how Avon here can read the message and see it is really non threatening, and respond in a civil and even humorous way. Where as the rest of you got your panties all twisted over a simple question. And you wonder why people like to jump on the "all the big alliences are rude jerks" bandwagon.

Maybe if you guys took a moment to "THINK" about your replies you could word them in such a way as to not come across as total ****s. Yes, being nice on the internet takes effort. Being a jerk doesn't. Please put in the effort...

To be fair, Thunk does kinda set himself up for replies like that .. it is what he does, he is a troll.
Also, some of the replies before mine contained their own little nuggets of truth, but I'll maintain the mystery as to what they might have been.

So did all the goonies unsubscribe as alluded to in this thread?

I'm intrested to sing up for this nifty little group. I know Avon will back me up because he still loves me. And yes, I still say that BoB will collapse pretty soon or drive most of EVE away.
