I personally prefer 4-sided triangles over 3-sided. What you (and several others) are doing in this discussion is playing around with ill-defined terms, throwing them back and forth at each other until they are just about meaningless. The culmination of this word assassination lies in this quoted sentence. The act of spite is the personal gain at play here which, as KwarK said, has a roughly quantifiable dollar value.
Imagine someone you dislike. Maybe you feel the person has reaped unjust rewards in their life. Maybe their philosophy seems outlandish/reckless/idiotic. Maybe you just don't like their face. Imagine this person you don't like and ask yourself whether you'd pay a dollar to have them lose ninety-nine. This isn't exactly the same problem, economically speaking, but it evokes an extremely similar partition of the human experience. Spite has a real dollar value, and you can refer to companies that suffered from boycotts if you can't convince yourself of this point.
Once again, motbob is right and everyone else mucks it up by changing the problem and/or the English language.

The tl;dr of my last post was "Many/most people do assign a positive dollar value to spiting the other player in this situation, even in the context of a one time game with an unknown co-participant. That doesn't make sense to me, can those who place a value on spite in this situation explain?"
So I agree with you that many people value spite even while personally disagreeing. My quote is a personal statement rather than global, which I thought was clear from the context of the post. It probably could have been clarified to "no other personal gain."

Ah the text chat communication, masking intent and conveying false understanding, since the dawn of the written word.

How Crius worked
Turning loose minerals into modules then back again had a 40% loss introduced
How eve-kill thinks Crius worked
"all modules, no matter how they were found, how many minerals they contain, what the ratio of volumes between the module and the minerals within is or what you paid for them now no longer contain minerals"

Welp I can't wait to see the story about what gorski has done since he joined the csm. Hes been on both sides of RvB, got denied in his attempt to re join bni, and then joined pl, got kicked, went back to RvB, and then joined bl, all since he got onto the csm. I just hope someone tries to interview him.

You just have to use the buzzwords in the right way and hype up the amount of work you do and people just start throwing you money

FA finances finally got published after like 6 months of "it'll be out next week". FA has 172b of misc assets. Assets which were listed separately and therefore do not make up misc include sov upgrades, SRF stock, POS stuff, moon goo, pos fuel and production related things. I have absolutely no idea how you can have 172b of misc that doesn't include any of those.

I'd assume its just random bullshit that they never used like old doctrine ships or some shit, but I bet reddit is going to assume that it means kwarks rmt fund or something else stupid.

Please. FA's entire financial profile is a rounding error on Kwark's wallet.

I know that, but Reddit doesn't.

This kind of thing bothers me. Why is it so fucked up and warped? Is it supposed to be a helmet or some other non-Euclidean surface? Am I looking at it (in game) from an angle which it's not designed for? In other words, am I holding my helmet in my hands like a complete fucking idiot to look at the interface?
Am I really supposed to believe that in the future, people can travel faster than light but they can't do simple projection math? Do people really think astronauts trudge through their life reading this shit http://i.imgur.com/iCJy74v.png ?

Kwark beyond being absurdly rich, do you know why reddit has such a hate boner for you? Also if micheal was being serious, how the fuck do you make that much money from eve, even assuming you are the turbo jew rmter reddit thinks you are. I mean assuming that someone is absurdly rich in a game and has no fear of rmting, how the fuck would anyone make that kind of rmt money.
