-Like any alliance, Test is home to a wide range of personalities,​ so it is difficult to define exactly what it is that makes Test TEST. Bittervets, griefers, narcissists,​ idealists, turbonerds, bronies, trekkies, powergamers,​ casuals, ​artfags and microhitlers ​all call TEST home and shit up the forums day and night with their drivel.+Like any alliance, Test is home to a wide range of personalities,​ so it is difficult to define exactly what it is that makes Test TEST.

 +==== Notable Characters from TEST History ====
  
-Overall, TEST as a whole reflects the personality of the popular website www.reddit.com that its largest corporation ​[[corps:dreddit|Dreddit]] recruits ​from. From the perspective of a //normal// person, the "​TESTies"​ would appear intelligent (but naive), impulsive and crude (though rather humerus), loud, disrespectful,​ offensive and incredibly unhygienic. In other words, ​TEST makes an excellent home for your average EVE gamer.+[[culture:players:​start|Notable Characters ​from TEST History]]
  
-===== Art & Propaganda =====+==== TEST State of the Alliance ​====
  
-Since EVE Online is a bad game that is not very fun to play, quality alliances provide a steady stream ​of propaganda to motivate the membership and trick them into logging in to shoot POS. TEST is not a very welcoming place for the type of nerd who actually enjoys spending his free time watching an HP bar slowly tick down to 0, so they'​ve had to dial the propaganda up to 11 to get their ADHD-infested drones to stomach the experience.+[[culture:​state_of_the_alliance|Centralized page of saved TEST SOTAs]]

-===== History =====+Breaking this rule may result in trials of ordeal (which are generally bad for you and amusing for everyone else)
  
-TEST has experienced dizzying highs and wearying lows, outstanding victories and humbling defeats. The political landscape of EVE is unfriendly and unforgiving,​ and through thick & thin TEST has withstood the test of time and lived to tell its tale. +==== Logos ====
