The past few weeks, Ive noticed something while playing EvE.. that is... I smack.
I don't just mean, I smack sometimes... I smack at every opportunity. I get a kill, I smack. I die, I smack. I wait for some dudes docked up in the station to come out and play... guess what? I smack.
Some people might not know what smack is.. (in other games people dont call it smack) So heres an example:

Now this is weird for me because in every online game I've ever played I've always been polite and a good sport. If I lost I'd tell them well played and if I won I'd be very modest and wish them better luck next time.
It wasn't always like this in EvE either. I used to be polite here too. I used to exchange "gf"'s and frown upon the people who talk crap in local.
Ever since I've joined this new version of Python its got progressively worse. I don't really know what has caused it... maybe it was hanging around with Spectre3353 to much (he smacks worse than I do, believe it or not) or maybe it was because of the way Python just honestly doesn't care about anything but having fun... or maybe I'm just a huge jerk.
Hell, maybe its a combination of all of those!
I don't know.
But what I do know... SMACK IS FUN..
Do you smack? I'd like to get other peoples thoughts on this..
Smacktalk is the best.
ReplyDeleteI can't say I condone smack talk personally, no matter what the situation. If someone is particularly discourteous then I just leave system, rather than giving them the satisfaction in smacking (whatever that satisfaction is).
ReplyDeletePiracy in itself is a mean profession, there is no need to ever add insult to any injury incurred in Eve. I've made some of my best friends after having been owned by them and then got on to talking.
A friendly 'gf' never hurt anybody. Still, each to their own!
Hey Kishin, shut your mouth you pussy
ReplyDeleteHello Kitty online is ----> that way
^_^ I see wat u did there, Kobra.
ReplyDeleteOnly fagots don't smack.
ReplyDeleteNice to see I got some smack from my anti-smack message there!
ReplyDeleteMy point remains the same regardless. You guys smack, I'll focus on being a decent pirate (OMGZZ, did the piratez just smack back?!)
I kind of feel like I'm torn between Kishin and Andrea's opinions, personally. I smack like a madman in games like Left4Dead, and if anyone ever instigates any amount of smack in EVE, I really can't help myself at times.
ReplyDeleteIn general though, I try to say relatively little in local, and at least thank parties involved for the fight. Still, sometimes everyone needs to make some exceptions. It's all just amusing at the end of the day anyways.

ReplyDeleteKeep your eyes on the prize. And don't forget to pump your loins kids!
Smack and banter can be a fine line. As a rule, The Bastards don't smack. We avoid insulting people and rubbing salt into people's wounds. Especially after we have successfully ransomed them. Most of the time, people are so butt-hurt the insults are all one way. It is quite amusing. Just saying 'gf, come again' is usually enough. If one is in doubt, say nothing and start looking for someone else.
