Summary: This is what happens when you do drugs. The OP in this whine is convinced that Quafe is involved in warp fields and the Amarr Empire's military success and...well...just read it.

QUAFE. You all think that its just a harmless drink that tastes like sprite or something that you occasionally buy and sell. But have you noticed just how often you can find “Quafe?” Its everywhere, even in Caldari and Amarr space. Doesn’t that seem a little strange considering it’s a Gallente-Manufactured drink? Theres a reason for this and its not a good one.

We all know that the Gallente fit the most WCS of any race due to their prevalence in pvp and their inherently superior sensor strength and range (fascinating coincidence huh). What you don’t know is that there are reasons for this that aren’t immediately apparent but are tied completely to the production, manufacturing, and distribution of Quafe. Ill explain.

Quafe is affecting the effectiveness of warp drives

1. According to the science articles, faster than light travel creates an energy depleted vacuum that removes all the particles, allowing the ship to travel without this enerys friction getting in the way. It does this between two polar disks, removing the energy and from it and creating NEGATIVE PRESSURE
2. Quafe is sold in the form of a carbonated beverage. This is both the inverse and converse of some of the warp core functionality, because QUAFE ALSO CREATES NEGATIVE PRESSURE inside its container. It’s the inverse because during the process of carbonation carbon atoms are injected into the solution (to create that fizzy sensation).
3. Warp disruption bubbles operate on similar principles as the carbonation bubbles in said drinks (Ron Paul).

Amarr discovred Jump Drives first, correct? Allowing them to grow their empire and enslave the Minmatar. But for some reason they’re no longer as powerful as they once were – and who is the most powerful? The Gallente…the same ones that manufacture Quafe.

As I’ve said before this isn’t a simple coincidence, and I would be willing to bet ten million isk that if Quafe wasn’t in the game the Amarr would be more competitive and in a much better position to pvp then they currently are. Strange then that the Amarr asked Quafe to negotiate the treaty over the Girani-Fa system, isn’t it? Perhaps the amarr were appeasing the Quafe company in order to mediate its effects (strange timing with the new amarr boost, is it not?

In addition! If you’ll check your reginal markets you’ll notice that the sales of quafe have had a consistent downward trend for the past three months – does this incident lead to more stress between the empires? The Amarr seek to reclaim some of their old glory by removing Quafe from their territories, and since its such a huge company when Quafe suffers the Gallente suffer (notice this timing with all the Gallente Nerfs. Boost Amarr, Nerf Gallente, Quafe sales down?). Perhaps this is a prelude to a new Khanid emporer (thi makes sense as Khanid ships are becoming more influencial in the Amarr)?

In conclusion, Quafe has a much more serious impact on our gameplay and race balance than previously thought. KEEP THIS IN MIND with further game changes and more boosts to Amarr and in relation to ingame news and RP developments. And don’t buy it, keep the Market going downwards and maybe the devs might not see the need to nerf the Gallente even more, though using more WCS might serve to counteract this effect.
