[edit] Roger Wilco
Hi Battlehamster. No offence taken. I looked at the radio voice procedure link, and I must admit that you must be right. In all probability the program name is based on the radio voice protocol (as is the name of the game). I am only embarassed that I had no idea (about wilco being part of the protocol), and that's the reason I immediately made the connection to the only familiar thing. :)

[edit] Scam Link on EVE
Hey Battlehamster, i'm not an eve player but i read the story "night freeze" had wrote years ago and liked it so much i actually bought the domain thegreatscam.com and now i point it to www.wirm.net/nightfreeze (thought it was wirm.net/tgs but its nightfreeze). This is an exact 100% copy of the original article pasted on the something-awful forums.

- Hi Wirm,
- I didn't mean to imply that your link was a scam. Rather, I was referring to the name of the story "The Great Scam". Sorry about the ambiguous wording. :) I have some reasons why I think the first link is (currently) more suitable than the link you added. I've iterated them on the Talk:EVE Online page in the 'Link for "The Great Scam" story' section, so that others may add their input in order to come to a consensus. Please add any comments you feel are appropriate!
- Best regards, --Battlehamster 04:40, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] EVE Pirate, External Links
I believe that EVE-Pirate.com (updated daily) is a third party site which really belong on that third-party linklist. Site is one of the major fansites out there with a big fanbase (rough estimations of 30k unique visitors/month by its author). The site is also the only site on that list to deal with piracy in EVE and a good source of information (roleplay, pvp, ingame stories etc). Piracy which we all know is a big part of EVE. If you're looking to remove some links, I'd suggest:
- Eve-downtime.com seems very weird to have since it is a small plugin hardly used by more than a couple of hundred users. The info is also freely available on eve-online.com or in the client itself. - EVEcast.com hasnt been updated since July 27. With a few updates prior to that... - http://www.siigarikitawa.com , multiple redundant comics.
