She asks: How does your real life personality compare to who you are as a character in EVE? Does a good leader of people in the real world make a good leader of pilots in game? Or vice-versa? Do your real-life skills help you with the roles you fulfill in your corporation or alliance? Or do you behave completely differently? Does the anonymity of the Internet allow you to thrive on the tears of others in New Eden whilst you work as a good Samaritan away from your keyboard? Or are you as mean outside of your pod as you are inside it? Have experiences in EVE Online affected your behavior, skills or attitudes outside of the game?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In a world such as EVE Online, with endless possibilities, it&#8217;s easy to see why the attraction of developing an alter ego would be there. Let&#8217;s try to answer Eelis&#8217; questions!    <br \/>How does your real life personality compare to who you are as a character in EVE?<\/p>\n<p>Morphisat:<\/p>\n<p>This isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t very hard for me to answer: I am pretty much myself in MMOs ! Helpful and somewhat funny (some people might disagree with my sense of humor). I tried to do the pirate thing in Eve with my alter ego Belautis, but that failed miserably. Never could get myself to shoot some helpless new player in a belt, accidently mining in an 0.4 system. I can see the attracting of rping someone totally opposite, but I couldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t never really get into it.<\/p>\n<p>So what\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s the point of playing an MMORPG when you don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t really do the R thing ? Well, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s still a bit of mild role playing when you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re pretending to be capsuleer in Eve. Or a Tauren or an Orc in Warcraft. Factional warfare brought out the role player mostly in me in Eve, and I really started to dislike the Amarr. Them shooting me didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t help of course. <\/p>\n<p>List of participants:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.crazykinux.com\/2011\/01\/eve-blog-banter-24-be-all-that-you-can.html\">EVE Blog Banter #24: Be, all that you can be, and so much more!<\/a> <\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/manasi.eveplayer.net\/2011\/01\/bb24rl-eve\/\">BB24:RL + EVE = | A Mule In EvE<\/a> <\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/freebooted.blogspot.com\/2011\/01\/bb-24-mirrors-of-soul.html\">Freebooted: BB 24: You Talking to Me?<\/a> <\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/wtfims.blogspot.com\/2011\/01\/blog-banter-24-behind-keyboard.html\">where the frack is my ship?: Blog Banter 24: Behind the keyboard<\/a> <\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/gigaer.wordpress.com\/2011\/01\/14\/ooc-cks-blog-banter-24-i-am-prano\/\">(OOC) CK\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Blog Banter #24: I Am Prano. \u00c2\u00ab Prano&#8217;s Journey<\/a> <\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/podlogs.com\/mikeazariah\/2011\/01\/14\/bb24-who-are-you-who-hoo-woo-hoo\/\">mikeazariah \u00c2\u00bb Blog Archive \u00c2\u00bb BB24 Who are you, who hoo woo hoo<\/a> <\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/akinesis.blogspot.com\/2011\/01\/24th-eve-blog-banter-january-2011.html\">Drifting: The 24th EVE Blog Banter (January 2011 Edition) &#8211; Topic: EVE and Real Life<\/a> <\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/podlogs.com\/gunsofeld\/2011\/01\/13\/eve-blog-banter-24-where-eve-meets-real-life\/\">Victoria Aut Mors \u00c2\u00bb Blog Archive \u00c2\u00bb Eve Blog Banter #24 \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Where Eve Meets Real Life<\/a> <\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/durzosmith.wordpress.com\/2011\/01\/13\/who-is-more-real\/\">Who is more real?? \u00c2\u00ab The Durzo Chronicles<\/a> <\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/captainserenity.blogspot.com\/2011\/01\/blog-banter-24-personalities.html\">Captain Serenity: blog banter #24 &#8211; Personalities<\/a> <\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/carebearconfessions.blogspot.com\/2011\/01\/eve-and-real-life-eve-blog-banter-24.html\">Confessions of a Closet Carebear: EVE and Real Life (EVE Blog Banter #24)<\/a> <\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/phoenixdiaries.co.uk\/the-24th-eve-blog-banter-eve-and-real-life\">The 24th EVE Blog Banter &#8211; EVE and Real Life &#8211; The Phoenix Diaries<\/a> <\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/eveblasphemy.com\/2011\/01\/14\/eve-blog-banter-24-eve-and-real-life\/\">\u00c2\u00bb EvE Blog Banter #24: EVE and Real Life EvE Blasphemy<\/a> <\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/00sage00.wordpress.com\/2011\/01\/14\/blog-banter-24-in-real-life\/\">Blog Banter 24: In Real Life \u00c2\u00ab Yarrbear Tales<\/a> <\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/cailais.wordpress.com\/2011\/01\/13\/the-strange-case-of-dr-jekyll-and-mr-alt\/\">The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Alt \u00c2\u00ab the hydrostatic capsule<\/a> <\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/rocwieler.com\/2011\/01\/14\/blog-banter-24-me\/\">Blog Banter #24 \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Me \u00c2\u00ab Roc&#8217;s Ramblings<\/a> <\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/playthegame.serveblog.net\/2011\/01\/13\/blog-banter-personalities-in-game-and-out-of-game\/\">Blog Banter: Personalities in game and out of game<\/a> <\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/fiddlersedge.blogspot.com\/2011\/01\/game-face-eve-blog-banter-24.html\">Fiddler&#8217;s Edge: Game Face &#8211; Eve Blog Banter #24<\/a> <\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/progressionshorizon.blogspot.com\/2011\/01\/blog-banter-24-synonymous-or-anonymous.html\">Progression&#8217;s Horizon: Blog Banter 24- Synonymous or Anonymous?<\/a> <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Intro: Welcome to the twenty-fourth installment of the EVE Blog Banter, the monthly EVE Online blogging extravaganza created by CrazyKinux.
