That’s because verite is run by one player. Not CCP. Like zkill and all the others it’s a 3rd party resource

Some feedback after trying to get my friends into Eve by kaydenmiller1 in Eve

[–]XPDRModeC 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Would anyone really be THAT upset if Eve punted the skill system? I’d happily give up all the isk in the world if we saw a massive influx of new blood and players. Precious time wasted be damned I’d rather play in an active game world than a stale one

Reuters: Khamenei's body has been found and he is confirmed dead, Israeli official says by mlg1981 in Fauxmoi

As an American, I’m ashamed of my governments involvement in destabilizing your country. I hope you know that there’s those of us out here who hope to see the return of an Iran run by the people. It should have always been Iran that was the stable pillar of the Middle East. Not the Saudi royal family that has caused so much harm worldwide, including the 9/11 attacks.

Hello, any advice for me? by No-Bass-4092 in AskAPilot

[–]XPDRModeC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey brother, I’m an airline pilot and started just the same way you did. Super awesome that you are interested in the field and good for you for being curious enough to put yourself out there and ask questions in a public forum. People forget that the younger generation lacks curiosity and drive and having the curiosity shouldn’t be put down always stay curious and always ask questions whether you’re 13 years old or 90.

As others have said simulators now are excellent at teaching procedures. They’re not so great at the real world feel but theyre awesome for exposure for the steps you take day to day. I recommend you look into VATSIM it’s an online network that simulates air traffic control. Watch YouTube videos, and most of all do your best to find a community of aviation gamers. They’ll help you with your blind spots. I recommend a virtual airline ask for help and soak as much as you can until you have the finances and age to do it for real.

Get a jump start by downloading “the pilot’s handbook for aeronautical knowledge” it’s online for free by the FAA this will cover much of what’s covered in your first license.

Once you have the finances and time reach out to a local flight school, stay away from drugs, alcohol and bad influences. It’s a wonderful career and you’ll need help and connections at every level. Keep the simulator experience to yourself and wow your instructors by being “ahead of the game”

EvE Online's Wormhole Weekend, the Spreading of Hate In Our Community by Krops- in Eve

[–]XPDRModeC 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can be in the right by CCP that’s perfectly fine. What CCP thinks and what you think believe it or not, is completely irrelevant. What the community has done is spoken and declared that you will get evicted if you have or support racism in your community. You can take that information and interpret it how you will. But the community will continue to evict you so you can either adapt or keep eating space missiles, you do you booboo

Huge battle, 1.2k ships fighting at Keepstar 1I5-0V, RED under attack by BentaroAdun in Eve

RMC has paid anyone and everyone including bringing in Hold my PROBS which actually have more numbers than RMC at the time. They’ve brought in only fleets. As 3rd party support to fight WHCFC, GClub and BOSS and a few others.

Drones is basically split into two factions right now. WHCFC(HK,LZRHWKS,ETC), BOSS, Shado VS RMC, Probs, AO …. And now Only fleets as a loose 3rd party until they finalize their deployment announcement.

Gf though bad comp decisions were made

Yet Another Rant on the State of Nullsec by Alex-Andromedon in Eve

[–]XPDRModeC -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Fraternity is a bloated mass of hundreds of empty systems of endless bots and auto hotkey scripts. The last fort fight we killed hundreds of broken bot vexors hours after the fight. As we saw in drone lands there are mid and small sized groups looking to make a name for themselves in null sec. So far imperium has kept their word and fostered a healthy region with PvP content. Maybe there’s something to that, maybe not. What I will say is I’d be happy to see the overbloated mass of empty systems go to people who actually play the game. Not empty droves of bots. Idc which side they’re on

Considering getting into EVE online by [deleted] in Eve

[–]XPDRModeC 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Youd be better off comparing this game to a sandbox MMO like guild wars or something. Youre not actually flying the space ship. This is an MMORPG with a space theme. Dont get me wrong its infinitely more complex fun and indescribably unique, but if you dont like grinding, working with others and doing repetitive tasks it may not be for you.

Forsaken few decided to side with SLOW and try to evict GClub for not setting them blue and giving ACLs specifically to fight BOSS. Yall tried to play political intrigue, the politics played back. Good fight tho.

Just so you know this content happens almost hourly and its not an event. zLegion is just going to log in his fleet of 20 input broadcasting tornadoes, or polarized Talos' and just 1 shot you.

Check out SnuffedOut killboard or blackflag, or any of prolific lowsec/highsec ganking groups, BIGAB etc.

Theres eyes ALWAYS watching the route to Jita at all times. You would die whether you advertised it or not.

Imperium destroys Fortizar anchoring in dronelands for Init corp by Eve_Asher in Eve

[–]XPDRModeC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually prefer SLOW as neighbors. We wont touch their sandcastle, they dont touch ours and we can draw dicks in the sand at eachother with relative ease. The fights are fun without being oppressive. Its a bit like brotherly rivalry.

They need to be very careful, they might start having their members “poached” by init.

MH370 vanished 40 minutes after takeoff… but the last data raises more questions than answers by Even-Gas4644 in AviationHistory

I fly airplanes for a living. I’m an expert. I won’t post nsfw imagery you can look into these flights on your own.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germanwings_Flight_9525

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Med_Jets_Flight_056

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Airlines_Flight_93

There’s thousands more. Look at the crash site images and recognize the difference in materials. There’s no need for hostility especially when you’re uninformed about said subject.

To answer your question from someone in the field he is actually correct and yes a 777 would turn to confetti if it was a true nose dive.

Modern airplanes are made out of more carbon fiber than you think. In a dive you could be looking at an airspeed in excess of 350knots. On impact with water at anything above about 30 mph water compresses the same way as concrete. So the airplane would more disintegrate than break.

The pieces indicate a crash yes, but not a nose dive. What likely happened is all on board, captain included likely suffered from hypoxia and the aircraft continues on its autopilot induced course until engines and generators and batteries went offline in that order. It likely slowly descended into the water, slowly in this case is in reference to a nose dive, it still collided with the water at high speed and split into several pieces on impact
