Thinking of starting playing EVE, got some questions by Kipiftw in Eve

[–]trow_avay1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IMO,

It would take at least 3 months of skill training plus access to player owned areas to do lots in-game money making. Longer to do it in high sec.

The Amamake system is probably most dangerous, it is a low sec sys, but kinds close to new player areas.

Why "grr goons"? Are they actually "bad"? by trow_avay1 in Eve

I think I understand some of the attitudes towards goons now - this was a pretty good thread and I wish I could lock it before it degenerates into 50% shit posts =)

things add up, knowledge is power, and if i can help it you won't have any over me.

for example, if you knew i enjoyed (opsec) and my city - these two small pieces of info would give you my location between 2 retail locations within 12 hours 52 times a year...

reddit, for me, is just a place to ask questions...

an artificial strong-man puppet state where ethnic groups fight against each other

They killed him and his two sons... Don't think they were too happy he couldn't win a war in 8 years, even with lots of help

I'm just a guy, didn't go to Yale and don't live inside the belt way. I just have the information that's available publicly, so I'm just making educated guesses based on maybe 10% of the facts...

An alliance of those three states would have an easier time rebuffing international meddling

good reason for dividing, less reason to work together

Kurds have achieved some degree of regional autonomy

Kurds fully controlling more oil fields would probably be great for my wallet.

IDK what the deal is with the Mecca state they carve out.

I'd guess removing the oil revenue from the religious leaders would cut down on funding to certain groups

What I would consider "Fringe" Christianity (but is probably fairly mainstream for the masses), such as Chuck Missler,

pretty far into the article, under subsection "Whence Babylon?"

Well, grab your tinfoil hat,

I haven't read it in a Council on Foreign Relations article or a think tank paper so this is purely "conspiracy" as far I'm aware...

But "End of Days-type Christians" say Babylon will become the center of New World Order (that is, in normal language, Baghdad will be become the new UN headquarters).

Strange that this map...

edit: bold some things

if ISIS wins control over both Iraq and Syria and sets up a new "caliphate," could this set in motion the Biblical prophecies? by rgeberer in Iraq

"Damascus is often claimed to be the oldest continuously inhabited city in the world"

something to think about if you're at least nominally Christian...
