Alleg is a very good model for natural selection the way I see it.
Some adapt and excel in their environment, others don't develop the necessary traits for survival.
Also, there is the group mentality. If certain "Alpha Males" deem a pilot unworthy due to some annoyance or misguided comment, then the "pack" under the "Alpha Males" proceed to ostracize and belittle the branded pilot. Much like a Scarlet letter.
The Stigma Sticks and unless you have the thick skin to take the punishment, you perish.
Survival of the most ruthless, stubborn and bitchy.

well said Heyoka. I keep thinking of those who adapted and changed and became beloved instead of belittled.
I didnt even believe it myself so I removed the lame joke

Well, Don Quixote is quite a helpful teammember ingame. He only lacks a Sancho Panza, who helps him out, when he is tilting at windmills in the cc-forum.
Wait... MrC just volunteered for this role!

While being a bit dullwitted, chubby, and riding a donkey (especially the donkey bit) seems awesomesauce the idea of posting in CC10 *shudder*
It was an honest thought from someone who reads the CC10 forum rarely and has posted almost nothing of importance ever in it.

edit: @#(! I accidently deleted thie line just before posting the above...
My comments still stand, and if the Leopard hasn't changed its spots in this case the pelt hanging on the Allegiance clubhouse wall gets no sympathy from me. If the Leopard became a soft serve ice cream cone or a bowl of Petunias, as has been the case numerous times, than
too
I even $#@!ed up the edit this time *sigh* I'd fail the Sancho Panza pre-employment test for sure

'Someone'... I have a bad feeling about that...
