Title: Thanks!
Post by: Slam Master A on January 18, 2009, 10:44:44 AM
Hey all,

I've met a good number of you (others have been kind enough to put up with me), but I wanted to introduce myself. My character is Sularia, and I'm n00bing up this joint. I just wanted to thank all of you that took the time to help me take on the learning curve that is a trial account. I hope that sometime relatively soon, I'll be at a point where I can pay back the favor!

-Slam Master A

P.S. I'M NOT A SPY! (I've been told that's necessary to include, and will continue to do so... forever)

P.P.S. Sorry to those of you who were forced to click on this link, only to realize you'd read it in another thread... if I could give you back the seven seconds of your life that it took, I would. Unfortunately, you just wasted another three seconds reading this P.P.S.

So is the number of "newbies" who happen to have been lurking lo these long years and are just now showing up to play EVE with us!

Paranoia of what, illiteracy?

Yes, I am scared of people in 2009 that can't READ.

I'll add my thanks too. I'm having fun ATM and people in f13 helping out > noob chat.

BTW - I came to f13 for WAR discussion. After learning that WAR was not about endgame PvE I migrated to EVE.

I did not have relations with that spy :D

I belong to the F13 faction that finds all the attention rather flattering.

Seriously, are you guys buying this horrible spy introduction?

If he hangs out in the F13 channel we might as well hear who he wants us to think he is.

That's fine.  So long as he doesn't think that he'll get in.

Unless he pays the admittance and background check fee.

You'd think that that goes without saying, yet I only know of two people who have just stumped up the cash and joined.  They, of course, made back the 200 large within about three hours of reaching our space.

Which of course, I would be more than happy to do the administration and background check on.

Guys guys, I've already told you, we have to run this through the F13 Acceptance and Governance Process. This ISO9001 certified process has been put in place to officially accept cash remuneration as a method of gaining internet spaceship loyalty.

Make all cheques payable to Nync ...

Whoever invented ISO standards needs to be staked to an anthill with his innards arranged around him in a lovely pattern.

OP- who are your F13 friends who invited you to play/join?

This seems like very bad advice.

I gave him that advice:)

Is it working as intended?

Post by: palmer_eldritch on January 19, 2009, 11:03:02 AM
Tbh it was meant as a joke and I think Slam Master A is just playing along with the joke. He's not dumb.

Which, obviously, means he must actually be a spy.

I was directed to f13 by a law school friend who is friends with a regular poster (who's name I constantly forget, though I sent it to Samson in Eve mail... n00b question: is there any way of finding sent mail aside from in the history of resposes?). I then discussed my rock solid connection to f13 with Samson, and he said, in slightly different language,* "Man, that is a fucking solid connection! I would never doubt you loyalty or potential spy-ness. I wish I lived near you so I could give you a high five, perhaps even a back bump! I'm happy to respond to all of your less than intelligent sounding, ultra-n00bish questions, frequently cased in WoW speak. You ROCK, and are clearly my new favorite person in Eve!"

*"slightly" is used rather liberally in this context.

P.S. Any who openly suspect me of being a spy are clearly spies themselves!

I don't even play anymore, care, or have any reason to post in this thread ... but... come on man, you know it. I know it. Schild knows it.

You're a spy. Not even a good one like Mr. Nice Guy Agreeable to Everything.... oh wait, he was a horrible spy. You must be smarter than him. You are the REAL good spy!

Send me lots and lots of isks and blueprints so I can build cheap stuff for F13 guys.  :awesome_for_real:

Same.  C'mon, you'll never play EvE again.  You don't need it.

Post by: Salutant on January 19, 2009, 12:59:50 PM
the name was Trias_E.  I'm HS friends with him, and "Slam Master A" is a lawschool friend of mine.

Just to clear the (possibly untruthful) facts up.

Alright... and the street cred comes through!

Ever since I saw you for the first time I felt the urge to ask you this... and now, after all the months it seems like THE perfect moment.











Can I have your stuff?  :grin:

I will come back someday, and debacle all you chumps. Or something.

Trias doesn't play Eve and hasn't for a long time, has he?  I don't think he even posts in the subforum any more?

If you're going to come in and be so annoying that you have entire threads about you in both private and public forums you're going to have to come up with better reasons than that, Sunny-Jim.
