I see the thumbnail shows two EvE Titans, because you really cannot do a ship-waving contest without including EvE. Honk honk, Gallente Space Train coming through!
Funnly enough, they wanted to include ships 50 times larger than Titans early on, but the engine physically prevented them from doing that, plus the grids were too small and were only recently expanded.

The Tecarian Empire wishes to join in but is currently not able to do so. The Imperium of Man shall have to suffice.

Enlistment is NOT conscription. Conscription is any able bodied man with a pulse, draft is anyone within certain criteria, and enlistment is any volunteer within those same criteria.
I would not have this problem if I had a full diploma, the military considers a GED inferior to a diploma because it means you dropped out and then regretted it, so I can kinda understand them needing more than just the GED as proof that you are committed to your academics and will be committed to them. Basically they're willing to overlook you accepting defeat as long as you got back up and pushed extra hard afterwards.

wrong dictionary segment, is dropping out that common? I mean the standards here is SPM and most of the time you will get it even with full 7-9 Gs but only malay C/credit you get to have your SPM cert and get on with worser job choices and the armed forced here does only require 2-3 credits on the cert, of course if you fail only that malay, you dont get to have your cert even you have flying 8-9 A+s, which I almost did with a D/marginal pass.
Edit:
forgot to add as my from my year onwards they added passing History as a requirement to get the cert too.

I can't speak for how common dropping out is, but the armed forces usually doesn't look very closely at WHAT you did in school so long as you got through it, they believe that the abilities you'll need to succeed in the military and in school are totally different and have a standardized test called the ASVAB(Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery) to determine how you will fit into them, this filters out a lot of incompetents and is usually looked at in a general sense to decide what they'll trust you with.

No it's better, it's literally nothing but older players interchangeably defending and hating on the game. There are no new players involved.
Oh my God, it's devolved into a vet fight. That's hilarious, and entirely expected from how many must have been banned from the regular forums.

None of them have a point either, they just vomit angry words at each other.

/r/mwo is something else
"we must ATTACK PGI WITHOUT RELENT to dispatch this evil game so that a new one can take it's place!"
"wait, you seriously think somebody is going to snatch up an IP with it's own hate-cult after the previous owner drops it in death throes?"
"shut up you white knight, your argument is stupid, people will clearly see our reasons and support us"
just to be clear, this is half the war over on the MWO steam forums, the other half is the same level of self delusion from the other side of the spectrum.
I think something weird clicked in my brain I can almost make out the difference between 30 and 60fps suddenly.
forums been hella dead the past week.
Have we really nothing to discuss without drama? Is that all that we have going for us an endless cycle of "I've nothing to contribute to that" "well I've nothing to contribute to THAT" or am I just paranoid? No don't answer that I don't trust your answers.
