Since most fights happen inside a plex (and you can't warp directly to someone in a plex - you always land on the acceleration gate) I actually find that there's much less chance of someone crashing your party in FW than elsewhere.
Now if you're fighting someone on a gate close to a busy system, sure. But that's true just about anywhere.

The person who made that list is either very stupid, or has a some freaky sense of irony.
Otherwise, replace every "welcome to faction warfare" by "welcome to eve" and you've got a moderately entertaining set of basic advice pictures. The only ones specific to FW is the militia channel /facepalm blink off, and the one about Adolf, which made me smile.

I noticed earlier that he finished off a minnie pilot that escaped me in structure. I didn't realise he had a reputation for it, I guess that explains it. He did kill me shortly afterwards though!
I keep forgetting that he runs his thrasher with a loki alt until it's too late. Really hard guy to fight.

If you count his implants, drugs, and links, it's like you are fighting a 2 billion isk trasher everytime you meet him, so... yeah. And he specializes in killing his own militia.

You are right. That DOES make Syndicate sound a lot better.

You are right. I DID say FW was better than Syndicate.
Oh wait no I didn't. I know FW, and I've known it since 4 years back. There are reasons why I wasn't in FW. It's good short term entertainment, but nothing else. The reason I was defending it now is because SOMEONE WAS WRONG ON THE INTERNETS.

I'm glad CCP has devised a worthy successor to insurance fraud (for you young'uns, that refers to the (now defunct) practice of repeatedly insuring and self-destructing battleships for profit) : flying around in a t1 frigate with no guns and orbiting a thing for 20 minutes.

A lot of those made me smile. Thanks for sharing them.
Also, it seems there's always that one over aggressive prick that likes hammering his own team. When I was in min militia we had that problem come up a lot.

I think he meant he tackled something "large" in something "small", and killed the large ship's drones whilst awaiting support to kill it.

If the canes can't get there before your rifter's 125mm ACs kill the tempest that's their own damn fault.
