I liked Starsector, is EVE anything close to that?

Just get a freighter full of supplies and a tanker full of fuel. Anything that makes the resource usage lower is a plus. Not that you need a huge fleet anyways, just few destroyers should suffice

1) invest in tempest class frigates
2) acquire phase lances and pulse lasers
3) put safety overrides on them, max flux venting
4) try to fit on unstable injector if possible
5) become death itself

oh boy... You could try raiding the mining fleets, i'm pretty sure those are the weakest civilian fleets out there.

Good flanks and swift victory will come to you but only if you reply "Finesse ships are not for bots"

I used three of the big of the second largest freighters, two of the largest tankers, and a defense fleet of three destroyers (one apogee and two others that are more combat-based) and four frigates iirc. That outfit should be able to kill drone fleets from probes, and it has enough fuel and storage that you can survey/salvage entire galactic quadrants before you have to go home. You'll clear the entire map in 6 trips or so, maybe less if you get lucky.

No. Do your own research. Also learn to spell.

no, only with ISK. you can buy an extractor for real money to turn skill points into a marketable commodity. but yeah you can obviously sell game time for ISK and use it to buy skill points. doing so will get very expensive very quickly since the skill injectors lose efficiency the more points you have.

What is the best loadout for the Doom? Energy, ballistic or missiles?

I'm getting ready to found my first colony, and I'm curious about how I should set up my industries. So in this system, I have two planets, and one has Abundant Organics, Trace Volatiles, Moderate Ore Deposits, and Rich Farmland. This is a Terran planet with 75% hazard. The second planet has Common Organics, Moderate Ore Deposits, and Sparse Rare Ore Deposits. It's an Ocean planet with 175% hazard I wouldn't consider without it being in the same system as the first gem. I'm limited to 4 total industries per planet out of 8 as far as I can tell, and I want one to have a store since this system is midway between core and some more distant stars that are also good for colonies, and I'm tired of needing to go back to the center all the time. Since they're right next to each other I imagine they can synergize pretty well.

Just set up a heavy industry and fuel factory along with a waystation, that way you'll have massive supply and fuel storages for your endgame fleets. Commerce is not actually worth it..
You dont need those two industries for waystations to stockpile fuel or supplies, but it makes it way faster

They need to know you're not a spy before they invite you to their lowsec base.

On which?

One of the best subtle things about this game is that you get exp for fucking everything, not just combat. I think 10+ of my levels are just from selling and salvaging shit.

I wish factions were less retarded and could do some diplomacy rather than sperging at you or ignoring you.

>he didn't attend Eve-University
How can you even EXPECT to land a good job?

Eve is a game where you CAN enjoy it casually, but for the most part it is not fun to play it casually.

EVE is also probably the most rewarding video game to invest lots of into. The problem is you have to treat it like a second job if you really want maximum satisfaction out of it. Personally I quit it years ago.

>level 2 hegemony vengeance fleet contains TEN onslaughts

Oh boy, that's a literal jewel of the crown. the only "downside" is that it has poor farmlands, but everything else is perfect for a self sufficient planet.

enjoy your entire colony becoming manlets over time

nigga, you better lock that shit down before someone else does.

3-4 onslaughts at a time? It's easy if you got a decent fleet of your own.

It doesnt really matter where theyre set up
I'd put mining on the one with volatiles cause those are rare as fuck

it really doesn't matters since the planet will import whatever it needs/you take from it.

If you do research on EVE you'd easily understand why anyone sane would think it's garbage.

two words:
phase
frigates
and carriers filled with reaper torpedo bombers.

Not him but: there is 0 complexity or learning curve in eve because the game is extremely shallow. The best comparison is: you are given 100 different kiddy pools (the kind where the water goes to the ankle). It takes all of 30s to enjoy them for all their worth (or "master" them if you will). Only if you have major 'tism or mental issues are you going to enjoy being there that much longer for the sake of the pool itself though. Moreover, different as they are, each pool is still just a kiddy pool in the end, not that much of a difference if you get down to it. Also it's not like in typical grindan scenarios where you repeat the same shallow actions forever and then progress because unlike in other games, all progress is passive (you put a bunch of skills in a queue that progresses in realtime whether or not you're online, and only then, as well as with no other prerequisite, can you get better weapons or tools/bigger ships/better ability to play the market/etc.) and there is no real difference in terms of e.g. environment, challenges (as if there were any in the first place), zone access, game content or anything like that.

How do you start a game with exploration ? I never seem to get any missions and remnant defenses are deadly at the start. I always just slide into selling drugs to pirates for some easy 100k s

So I got Diable and Neutrino as facitons recommended to me last thread. I also got recommended Blackrock and Outer Rim Alliance but I don't like the way their ships look.
What are some other balanced faction mods? I want none of that "NUH UH MY FACTION HAS THE BESTEST SHIPS EVER THEY HAVE INFINITE SHIELDS AND FLUX AND ARMOR AND GO SUPER FAST" shit

i used to be a nullsec tryhard but now I just mine in hisec while watching netflix. it's chill. I still sometimes go for pvp roams if I want a little more. eve is as much or as little as you want it to be.

But I want to be efficient. You're both being pretty confusing, do I JUST put a mine and a heavy industry on both? Even the one without rare ore?

by behind stealthy and cost efficient in terms of travel.

You don't understand, m8, you need to do your own research to realize why EVE is filled to the brim with sociopathic assholes.

your post is wrong. nullsec alliance life is not the same as hisec life, which is not the same as wormhole life, which is not the same as faction warfare life. pvp is not the same as pve and is not the same as industrial. dunno how you get to that.

he climbs up the ranks of the corp, is active, is present, helps around, contributes to the corp, and all that, just to get more and more important ranks
and in the end, when he gets access to the finance of the corp, he steals everything and leaves, it turns out he spent months being friends with you, just to fuck you over, and he planned this from the start

this is peak sociopath behaviour and only happens in EVE

You've named a bunch of kiddy pools. Well done. But, how does that contradict anything I said? In the end, a kiddy pool remains a kiddy pool. The water in one is colder than the other, but that doesn't mean all that much.

Just started star sector and a little overwhelmed at the ship customization

so I got shallow guy and sociopath guy who both just want to repeat their favorite word over and over and not explain their problems. so i'll say it again: okay man.

turn off your transmitters and go dark whenever a fleet locks on you. they will lose track of you and will return to their normal patrol.

>do I JUST put a mine and a heavy industry on both?
No, place a mine on both planets to get their raw resources, a heavy industry on one, place the commerce on another and preferably also add a fuel factory on either one.
>But I want to be efficient.
It doesn't really matter where you place the industries(except the mining ones for obvious reasons) because they will get the resources they need from your other colonies at no cost (and if they don't have them, they will buy them from the other factions), but since your planets are on the same system and have what the other need there is no efficiency loss and your colonies will become self sufficient in no time.

If only it was real espionage and if only people actually used their real accounts to do it instead of making a billion more alts so nobody can tell it's them. But instead they always take the cheap way out that makes it kinda gay and pointless. For example, proper intrigue and actual stakes would be there for the "spy". Instead they just render themselves immune to any danger.
"spy" because it's not really espionage. Nobody does espionage. Actually posting people in someone else's guild so you know their plans and you can report back would also be cool. But nobody does that. It's all self-centered theft of resources and nothing else.

I've been selling drugs and organs for 10 or 15 minutes and have a bit over 300k. Is that enough to colonize something?

place the industry on the planet that has the best farming. If for some reason you run out of industry slots, replace the shittier mining with farming/aquaphonics.

To be on the safe side, I would wait until you are in the 700k zone. Buy some ships, take on some bounties; a colony is by no means the end game in starsector. Take your time.

Unfortunately Starsector threads are quickly devolving into the latter. The last thread was probably 75% forum modder autism.

Generally you put your heavy industry/orbital foundry/expensive shit on low haz world and let the mines from your other colonies send ore there. i tend to avoid to only put a refinary on every second mining world as that lowers what % of the market share of that good you have, and in turn lowers expeditions being triggered.

Now you removed the only real competitor you might have had

Basically, I have 2 colonies with the traits I described and 8 industry slots between them. I want to know what 4 industries to put on that Terran planet, and what 4 industries to put on that Ocean planet. Everyone just keeps giving me partial information
Like you're asking me to make judgement calls on things I have no idea about. Which one is better for heavy industry? What about the leftover slots? All I can construct from what you're saying is to put a Farm, Heavy Industry and Refinery on the Terran planet and a Mine on the Ocean planet? What about the last slot on the Terran planet? What about the three other ones on the Ocean planet? Wouldn't it be better to put the Heavy Industry on the planet with the actual Mine? Is the Refinery hurt by not having Heavy Industry on the same planet?

probably worth taking one

If you're planning to do a lot of exploring and can expect to find lots of things floating in space to salvage yes. Once you can afford them Badgers are better because they're bigger hulls so you get a bigger salvage bonus and they can fit surveying equipment so your planetary surveys are cheaper in one neat fleet slot. Can be given a decent number of supporting armaments too to provide support when you really need it and they have a fighter bay.

Yes, they help with the salvage process and when you are getting stuff from the debris clouds.

most of the issue is nullsec carebears blowing unimportant shit way out of proportion.
if they nerfed the shit out of citadel industry production and the like the game would be better.

The other problem is that the sistem right next to mine(just a few inches away from mine) is populated by the [REDACTED], complete with their own battle fortress and all
Is it a good idea to build my colony there?

If you don't mind the travel, then sure, sounds like a great planet. But you are gonna need to invent a lot, maybe 2 Million or more.

Excel: EVE is the best excel.

As a rule of thumb once you establish a colony you need a farm and all the security options available. One million will cover a colony.

Food is more important than other resources because without it you take a large stability penalty, preferably your first world should be a V with farms.

Is it worth a swarm of smaller freighters over a single atlas or colossus?

how do you take over a colony? is it really that easy?

With who?

they will attack your stuff but if the system you are in does not have their bigger fleets they are generally too small to engage a station and require a great deal of luck for enough of them to loiter around your stuff

Probably, it's got the same kind of autism with customizing and ordering your ships, but it's more like a top down freelancer than anything

Only reason to not get an atlas and instead get several smaller freighters is because of max burn speed.

single atlas. When it comes to freighters and tankers, bigger is better.

No, learn to recognize a memeing retard by the anime images

pirate shitters don't have nearly as much potential as actual good planets, level 5 is fucking nothing and can be achieved in like a year or less.

>Ogame

damn man, how long it's been, like 15 years? I can't believe I get to feel nostalgic for that piece of crap game.

>only ever smuggle with ships with lvl 10 burn or higher
>augmented drive fields on every ship or at the very least slower ones
>and, the most important: get a lucky boost while flying through a hyperspace storm

In addition to the other anons recommendations, I'd like to mention Junk Pirates, which is one of the oldest mods and somehow still being maintained, and Neutrino that is by the same person who originally made Diable Avionics and it shows. Used to be sorta overpowered but is fine now, other than not having yet prices updated for.
Vayra's Sector is good and has a really fun (if a bit underpowered) faction mod in the Kadur Remnant, but I'd maybe wait until it is more stable and split into three mods because honestly, it went hard into feature bloat for a single mod. Badger is my utility shipfu

playing browser games in school was awesome. ogame was not crap it was fun.

Its a good world, but its not the best system you could get.

You only get 4 slots to build of the 9 industries a planet can have. It is very clear from the way planets are designed that rocky/metallic worlds are supposed to support terran worlds.

The absolute peak efficient system would be
>One primary V world, with the best farms possible
>One secondary common mineral, rare mineral and volatile world
>Farmland, light industry, heavy industry and commerce industries on the V world
>Mining, refining, volatile and fuel on your secondary world
With this set up you get a 50% reduction on all resources between your two planets. Your primary world will turn out a huge amount of money when combined with that 50% reduction and you get to build every single major industry except organics and tech (although you can build tech, then when it runs out remove it)

Tech is nice, but it eventually runs out so its not long term useful. Organics are extremely poor for profit even when you find +3 since they are such a common resource, but not as important as food, you will automatically import all the organics you need.

Is that Saya?

I've been playing ogame again for the last year or so after not playing it for over a decade. I'm at the point where it takes a full day to get enough resources to upgrade a mine, and it would take me at least a month to save up for another colony. Basically all I do is turtle on my homeplanet and build deathstars now. I don't know why I'm even playing it, it's not really enjoyable or fun.

Its nice to finally play a game with a generous leveling system. Each point really matters but you also dont have to grind for experience.

atlas's do have a better cargo to fuel/supply ratio but you'll need two tug boats to bring them to 18 burn speed or have found the augmented drive field to bring them to 8 burn speed instead of using militarized subsystems

You can learn how to use them to your advantage. When the storm flashes, it will send you in a perpendicular trajectory, so if you want the storm to push you forwards, you need to have the storm behind you. If you want to push you to the left, you need to have it on your right, and so on and so such.

I don't think I've even noticed tugboats
One more thing to deal with after I finally get my colony producing supplies

Thanks user, will take into consideration
>Kadur Remnant
I'm sorry but I saw the author of that mod and honestly I'd rather not touch it with a 10 foot laser pole

Larger fleet gives you better deployment pts.
besides they have better burnlvl so you can put other logistic hull-mods.

Play Nexerrelin, the superior mod.
>Level 5 and having immense accessability is nothing
K retard

Bigger is objectively better in starsector, its more efficient and lower cost. You come across different issues, like burn speed, but that can be fixed with mods and tugs.

Fair enough. The tips file can be edited, if that helps.

>Nexerrelin
No thanks I actually like balance and quality games not a shitshow of unbalanced messes.

Youre literally retarded.

I've been using a bunch of hounds and cerberus because it was cheaper to finance at the start. I haven't been able to find any tugs or non-mk2 atlases anywhere. Also if you have to retreat from a battle a fleet like that means you're going to suffer really minimal and cheap losses while fleeing, and you can still maul smaller merchant fleets really easily if you want to

Not that user but that isn't my only problem with it.

Outer Rim Alliance are amazing fun to use, the ingame AI cant do broadside attacks properly most of the time (they flight straight, rather than rotate side on) but this mod fixes that for his ships.

On the download page there is an alternative look pack, pic related. I mean they are giant broadside bricks but they still look amazing ingame.

I really don't like the aesthetic of a giant brick tbqh

Always search every yellow/red star around the core worlds first before settling down.

I've used dev commands to search around quickly in a few random games and usually I can find 3 to 6 V worlds which are next to the core worlds. It makes a world of difference to be as close as possible to cores.

Does solving shortages improve your reputation with factions? I'm trying to make some guys hate me less and I don't know how to go about it other than doing stupid survey missions a billion lightyears away.

iirc, the fix for broadsiding AI was more mounts in the back of the ship
just a thing to consider

usually there are shortages because pirates are niggering, they'll put quests to kill pirates and their bases

Too bad none of the ingame ships have mounts in their backs to compensate. Although I have noticed some mod developers started putting medium slots there facing away from the front which helps.

Nexerrelin doesn't really change the "balance" of anything unless you think factions expanding or contracting is somehow unbalanced.

but user, I am a pirate

Considering the factions are not designed to expand or contract and fleets are unbalanced around that, yes its unbalanced.

I have no idea what is going on here. But I wont take it personally

Alright. Thanks, anons.

my nigga

The player can field a fleet of nothing but paragons, thats not balanced
The player can make dozens of size 10 colonies with alpha core manager making million of credits each month, thats not balanced
Yet you choose to draw the line at factions being able to occasionally make a shitty size 3 colony out in the rim?

At best you get a handful of V worlds near the core worlds which actually make a profit. Finding a good system is even harder and you'll only likely find one which can be overwhelmingly good. Meanwhile the AI will dominate the markets since every faction has a key resource and the only way to stop that is by attacking them.

The game is also unfinished, and the end game content is obviously not implemented yet. REDACTED is a taste of what it will be like.

Nex is a fucking shitshow which just leads to one AI steamrolling.

Do you guys ever establish colonies on class IV or V planets with high hazard ratings m

no

Because it doesnt have any utility.

Hes got the design wrong, industry needs some of the combat skills, and combat needs some new utility skills in it.

You want scavenger, which means you want industry, and you need technology because its got some of the best skills, that means you either go into leadership for fighters/better colonies/more pilots or combat and combat has literally nothing but a some really minor combat buffs.

I always spend at least a third of my skill points on Combat. Starting new games and running without things like Evasive Action 1 and Helmsmanship 3 feels awful.

EVE is a basic bitch MMO with enough of a metagame and economy to keep autistic guilds in self-perpetuating drama/power-lust loop forever. Doesn't even begin to scratch a Star Sector. Or even fucking Freelancer.
Play it if you have wet dreams about being the bitch to boring assholes who powertrip over the perceived credibility that 30,000 hours in a single game gives them.

When it came out it was the only form of 'end game' we had. Now we have a really good colony system using Nex is pointless.

I only take high hazard worlds if I already have a good low hazard world in the system. The mineral planets/moons often give the most minerals and can provide those resources to other colonies in that sector.

combat perks are shit I agree, but that 1% zero flux speed boost is REALLY good.

the 1% flux boost is literally pointless.

The x and y axis are swapped

No they are flagship only, if you want fighter skills on your other ships you need a pilot with those skills.

Not in high tech ships. Can go zero boost flux and have the shield up at the same time.

Speaking of flux, I have been playing recently with the GMDA mod and damn, those are some really nice and fast ships.

"no"
it lets you keep your shield constantly deployed which is good for larger ships with frontal shields that take forever to deploy as well as absorb beams while still getting that +50.

combat is hardly a minor boost particularly the x2 15% damage bonus you get to shields/weapons but most other skills in that bar are only need 2 points at most to get what you need out of them.

It is still hard to justify boosting one ship in combat over the massive economic and fleet boosts you get from everything else though

What the fuck is going on with the users of that modding forum and their paranoia about copyright laws?

Its not, administrators are a shitshow to upgrade unlike normal pilots so they are both shitty to manage and reduce your income drastically.

>sensors
>statistically better
you're either retarded, trolling, or have less then 5 hours in game.

>not governing your own colonies
Check the salary on those governors next time. They scale upward exponentially with the number of skills they have. Also, governors are rare for some fucking reason and I can't hire any extras even though I have 2 slots open.

Wait nevermind that was backwards, you were right the fleet one should be taken not the individual one

just use alpha ai cores dude. There is literally no reason to ever use standard goveneors, AI inspectors can just be killed or bribed.

>exploring without proper sensors
>not taking a skill which reduces sensor detection by 25% and doubles going dark
You can literally camp multiple capital ships next to enemies with a < 400 sensor range and detect everything and everyone before they can see you, in fact if you're flying anything less than capital class literally no one can detect you.

Do you think alpha cores grow on trees or something? It's infinitely more profitable to have 4 colonies under your thumb and use those alpha cores on key industries.

The cost of bribes or fighting Hedge is greater than the money you make from AI cores.

Taking the colony skills yourself means you get all three colony skills, no fee and no Hedge threats. If you take an administrator at best you get 2 of the 3 and they take a huge fee. AI is a noobtrap as an administrator since you'll blow through costs bribing or fighting all the time.

If you cant win every fight without those 9 points in combat you're shit at Starsector.

>You can literally camp multiple capital ships next to enemies with a < 400 sensor range and detect everything and everyone before they can see you
So what? How does that help at all? you can just outrun or catch up to enemies with emergency/sustain burn. If you ever need to go dark you just sit in an asteroid field and you're good even without the skill investment. For sensor range just use active pings.

shhh you are trying to talk to a retard that probably can only use fighter swarms

>you can just outrun or catch up to enemies with emergency/sustain burn.

>not using fighter swarms

Is it just me, or does Nexerelin not really add much of anything to the game besides flavor, and making it extremely dangerous to do any commission because another faction may just randomly wardec while you're in their space.

>you can just outrun or catch up to enemies with emergency/sustain burn
You literally cannot with multiple capital ships, and emergency burn murders your supplies and prep without spending points on it.

3 points to improve one of the key aspects of the game is not expensive at all. And the ability to literally stroll over to any fleet to engage it or detect any fleet without ever being detected while dark is immeasurably useful.

OP is an edit, it was originally dwarf fortress way back in the day.

you're not wrong, I uninstalled it pretty quickly for just making everything a mess.

Pretty sure the cap is for both fleets, and whoever has more gets more cap.

Im also pretty sure some mod will let you go beyond the cap to whatever size you want at the cost of your computer having a heart attack and blue screening.

Play the fucking game and see how wrong all of those statements are.

You'll have to make one yourself, mate.

Doing colonies yourself > AI > Administrators

Thats literally how the game was made and it makes sense. Its nine points to do colonies yourself which is a big cost, at the advantage that your colonies will be perfect and make a shitton of money, more so than any other option. So if you want to make a small niche colony and manage it to perfection you should take the skills yourself.

AI do the same thing without any fees, except for all the bribes and fights you will have to do. This is the better option if you want to fight lots in your space and want those points in something else. You could probably offset the cost by actually winning those fights and selling whatever you find but honestly its a lot of work to keep doing that.

Administrators are the worst of the lot and super expensive. But the benefit is no one will attack you for it and you dont have to take points, but your colonies wont be very good, more like a passive income rather than the massive money machine they could be.

nobody tell him

Thanks but it's not exactly what I'm looking for
I'll find something eventually or reuse the same I used for the previous playthrough

this but unironically
Yea Forums has had starsector threads for years and if you weren't interested then then you shouldn't be now.

New autists are born every day. Do you just want the game to die with you?

buy it and dump it in storage, eventually you'll need a few of them but it's a late game problem of supplies being more expensive than fuel in a superheavy fleet that calls for them

I'm gonna play your game, and you better keep your mouth shut or I'm gonna falseflag Axel, post a massive thread on his forum asking why aren't there transgender otherkin demisexual characters, and then cry to every single gaming journo so he gets attacked from all sides, and also say that a racist youtuber associated with Yea Forums sponsored him and he thanked him.
So not another fucking word, little sluts, or I ruin your fucking game.

You made me go look to see if they'd just plain gone out of business at last, does seem like the number of "please rejoin" emails has dropped off in the last year. But doesn't look like it.

Jokes on you fag the devs are autistic

You cant left wing attack disabled people

But there has to be easier ways to remove Ludd, to dissolve the 14th? 206 years and everyone outside of the persean sector just stops caring that a sector dropped off the map? I don't believe it.

alex doesn't give a shit, he does stuff at his own pace.

nobody tell him

Guess I know everything anyway thanks though user.

They can, and then they can roll in after everyone in the Persean sector is dead.

How do I see what commodities are for sale for other stations and planets in the sector?

A few weeks ago the author of a big faction mod got banned and his mod deleted because it had nazi references. They banned him because it COULD (it didn’t) impact negatively on the game.

Imagine what he’ll do if every major gaming journo calls out his game on being transphobic and unwelcoming for LGBTQWIPPDJQUEJSNRMRIWT communities

A Drover full of those mini-frigate single fighter wings.

Why would they care about the persean sector? It was a backwater shithole and still is.

Nah man, that theory doesn't make any sense. It'd be easier to make Ludd disappear in some dream accident, it would literally take a single order to dissolve the 14th and fore the crewmen. The domain isn't explained much but I very, very much doubt they'd sacrifice billions, possibly trillions of people and credits just to get rid of a single man and a battle group with a bad record.

This isn’t an EVE thread, it’s a starsector thread

You realize the forums have moderators right

All moderators are retarded power hungry cucks

Regardless, it's still a place full of money, people, resources. We have nothing to compare the persean sector to, we don't really know why it's a backwater. It could've simply been early in it's colonization.

That was a very obscure pun

heh

>because it had nazi references
Pretty sure the "references" were loading screen messages saying "make sure to kill hitler" and "delete any nazi memorabilia" if I'm thinking about the right mod.

Also it added now scenarios, though for now only Derelict Empire.
Though it doesn't play too nice with some mods, it seems Vesperon is giving me nullpointerexceptions if I find their representative in a bar.

Fuck it I'm going to install every faction mod and nexerelin and nobody is going to stop me.

Fleet cap is divided between all the fleets participating and then adjusted for the size of fleets. It stops mattering once you get gud.

There are no factions like that in Starsector mods. All of them are fairly balanced and ships of many are weaker shield flux maintenance/dissipation/damage to flux ratio wise, than those of vanilla. You can install any and you won't ever find one that is straight up better than all the rest. They all have their own pros and cons. The only faction that was absurdly overpowered is Knights Templar and they were intended to be modded in as a lategame boss faction for the player to fight against and the mod hasn't been updated since 0.8.

Should I just bring another carrier with interceptors then?

How many hounds die every fight

It depends on what kind of fight it is. I have some 3 star engagements where as many as half of them (like fucking 10) die, and I have some where only one or two dies and that's because it's humping a ship's engines right as it blows.

>waste of potential

The thing about eve is that they lie to you about what you can do, and rope you in with skinner box progression and time-gate locked content.

Scam marketing backed by manipulating "content"

The game is very "sexy" but its an aids whore with a faggot, human-trash pimp
