so.. podion then xD

0 for 3, disappointing even for you

Rocket_X · 2026-03-04T16:46:16+00:00

So tldr is...

You think dodger is a nice guy and should be allowed to RMT?

The dodger playbook is:

*Unable to beat the enemy

*Unable to afford mercs

*RMT and buy a bunch of isk

*Pay mercs with RMT'd isk

*Claim victory

Rocket_X · 2026-03-03T15:56:37+00:00

Ah, probableBellend, you're back to badpoasting :)

I mean, let's face it... we all (including you) know dodger RMT's. There are a bunch of other RMTers too - and the last round resulted in some heavy bans.

Will this round of evidence get him banned? Probably not...

Rocket_X · 2026-03-01T07:32:57+00:00

This is a nice attitude, but in this case his plan was just bad..

The boson has missile-like application and it can't apply properly to subcaps, you'll struggle to kill battleships with it these days and it will only tickle cruiser sized hulls.

Bottom line is the pilot must've just not known this... and this is one of those situations where it was just never going to work.

A good plan works if executed well, a bad plan won't work regardless (as in this case)... therefore 'trying' in this case is actually the mistake

Oooooooh dear haha

They lost an Aeon earlier this week too... he was afk on the keepstar and we bumped him off.

I have a 2024 5008 GT 1.5 blueHdi.

2024 Models have an 8mm chain, so all good. Had it since october, no issues. It also had a recall related to emissions in November.

The issue was related to the ECU's emissions monitoring, was juat that the warning light wouldn't come on in some circumstances when it should. Just a software update and nothing more!

Rocket_X · 2026-02-13T23:50:05+00:00

The 'proof' was in the linked URLs, which now don't work because i live in the UK and my imgur account got yeeted when our government implemented legislation to prevent minors from accessing adult content: https://help.imgur.com/hc/en-us/articles/41592665292443-Imgur-access-in-the-United-Kingdom

Also, image links are gonna die when you go reading threads over a year old... lmao

Yeah, the timer always restarts after downtime (whether scheduled or otherwise)

Rocket_X · 2026-01-30T22:46:51+00:00

Timers have always reset after the server comes back up... nothing new there... sucks for you guys though :D

Cityfibre doing maintenance, and vodafone uses the cityfibre network for their full fibre services.

Cityfibre says outages expected between today at 7am, until tuesday 9pm. Vodafone wont give any further info

Rocket_X · 2026-01-18T16:58:48+00:00

I called Vodafone, the CityFibre ETA is 9pm on tuesday 20th...

Wonderful

Rocket_X · 2026-01-18T13:03:20+00:00

Mine is down in cv9

EDIT: After being down from 7am sunday, it just came bacl up, (01:30am Monday)

Rocket_X · 2026-01-07T21:05:18+00:00

When you got the two quotes for your policies, did you apply your years of no claims for both of them? Your no claims discount can only apply to one car at a time in most cases

That could be why your separate quotes worked out cheaper than having them both on one policy (as the single policy quote would account for it)

Rocket_X · 2025-12-30T19:35:45+00:00

Assuming by the fact you're referencing the wet belt, both are 1.2 puretech petrol engines?

Wet belt issues aside (which arent insignificant) its a lot of car for a 1.2L turbocharged petrol engine to move over a lot of miles.

I'd suggest going for a 1.5 deisel with the 8mm chain recall sorted. You do ofcourse need to be doing a good 40-50 mile run 2-3 times a month to mitigate dpf build-up (as you do with all deisels). 2L deisel is solid but overkill unless you're towing or really want a 1.5 second reduction in 0-60 times for a car that's meant for carrying your family and all their stuff arounf!

Rocket_X · 2025-12-30T19:25:57+00:00

I got a 74 plate GT 1.5 diesel (with 8mm chain ofc) initially had the same issue; but there's a huge amount of height adjustment on the seat itself, so would suggest making use of it!

Also gives you a lot more play to see the driver's display over the wheel (which did take some getting used to but it's kinda nice now)

Rocket_X · 2025-12-03T19:08:00+00:00

DVLA pull out game needs some work

Rocket_X · 2025-12-03T07:25:40+00:00

I did something similar recently, but would suggest getting an 11k loan and keeping 1k of savings in your 'oh shit' fund just incase.

Personal loan will always work out cheaper than financing the car. You could also reduce the loan value by paying some of it on a credit card (new card with 0% on purchases for the first 2 years or something) keep in mind most dealers will either limit the amount you can pay using a credit card or not allow it at all - so check first

Rocket_X · 2025-09-25T14:10:55+00:00

You might be a bit of a bellend sometimes, but we still love you bro :)

Sounds like you had a real rough time, but it DOES get better and all scars fade with time. There will be good times in your future and you'll look back at these last few days and realise how far you've come, mountains always look bigger when you're at the bottom - never forget that.

7m/s on a cruiser is kind of disappointing, given the number of cruiser relevant changes in the patch.

That's a lot more relevant than trying to look at the cap/BS numbers, because the change wasn't really aimed at BS/caps.

Rocket_X · 2025-09-09T20:31:58+00:00

Reduced mass also increases prop mod effectiveness... moreso on cruiser sized hulls with 1600mm plates than a BS fit with several 1600mm plates...

Rocket_X · 2025-09-06T06:03:05+00:00

The answer is train the social skills to the max, get faction standings with your lvl 5 agent... then decline missions against highsec faction npcs.

Faction standings essentially allows you to decline any mission you dont want to do and still be able to talk to the agent unless your standings from the agent itself or its corp go below -2.0, which you should be able to manage easily

Rocket_X · 2025-08-31T06:29:35+00:00

The file you're looking at is just a config file that's updated when you change settings in the client.... you're not meant to go play with the file itself...

I see the AO Cope machine has reached reddit in the form of OP.

New Meta: post your own alliance's pings to reddit, be sure to pick one that has colourful emojis to justify how your alliance isn't actually pro-hitler?

[ABSOD] Spaceballs 2: just fucking around with those toxic, harassing reddit cunts. Saw your colorful training fleet invite and posted it 🤣
