This. This is a key statement here. I would love to see WG's statistics showing this. Show me the "reasonable" work needed by "hardcore" players to obtain PR for free. I would bet a years worth of Premium Time on a lucky player, that the work needed is not "reasonable" in any shape whatsoever.

A$300 would give me a good time at Voodoo Lounge, Doll House or Xotica. Or I can play with a middling TX ship. Hmm.

See, the mods here don't mind people implying that a player, or a nation in general are testicles or penises as long as we don't directly call them testicles or penises.

Well, that escalated quickly. Racial generalisations. Excellent. Umm, is it my turn? You Asians have been acting like proud one-minute-noodle eaters with a "this server is more superior" attitude <though we cannot back that up in any rational way>. See, it doesn't do anyone any favours and devolves the conversation until we might as well start flinging poi... poo... at each other 😞

That because of the preferential university slots available to rich immigrants on student Visas with unspoken "guaranteed" passing/graduation results. All at the expense of Australians who struggle to afford Uni or who cannot get into Uni due to the increased amount of slots taken up overseas students and the lesser number of slots available to residents. But eh...

Demonstrates saltiness with whine post about salty Australians whining... Keep going, you big red fire engine. You're rocking it!

Hmm - there's no way to qualify this. Looking at comments like this from a pragmatic stand point, it's very much an echo chamber. Have to be careful of that. For e.g. whilst I can read (mostly) the rants on the NA server in chat and that I can't read the rancid offerings put up often in the SEA chat - both are still clearly salty keyboard warriors who don't know how to be an adult. Just one is in (mostly) English and the other is in pigeon English, gibber or squares. At least I stand a (small) chance of conversing with the fevered boy-ranting on the NA server. On the SEA server it's like communicating between a deaf person and a mute person...

Time to hit the frog and toad ya galah

It's tough communicating in squares. Luckily the preset commands are "ok" at communicating most dialogue options but man... it's tough sometimes...

Stay classy I guess...

It's the same as in SEA - just for us Aussies and Kiwis it's generally incomprehensible, poor English or lots of cool blocks and squares.

A little on the nose considering the massive bush fires across multiple states and the eradication of many koala habitats. The poor critter is almost functionally extinct thanks to generations of land clearing and these bush fires are another nail in the coffin. But hey - you go, you big red fire engine.

Salt level is the same - just for the majority of us Aussies/Kiwis it's incomprehensible or just lots of cool blocks and squares.

I think most people here have missed the point - and it shows from the "git gud" (nice English by the way) and/or the "you're famous so get used to it". Sigh, as usual the vocal minority here miss the point and something important gets lost in the back-slapping noise that frequents these parts...

Where's the data showing it's effectiveness? I am sure I can throw noodles at a person and eventually kill them... not that I'm saying it's a good choice of weapon to do so...
