Having read some of the fiction, I have learned we are also considered to be largely evil by the population of the galaxy. Seeing as how we don't bat an eye spending an entire planet's GDP for kicks.

you know what I meant.

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

Nope...

Wanted to start over but after I realized that I would need to train skills like heavy combat drones to lvl5 again I decided no.

I was curious as I have seen pirates, war Corps, industrialists, bounty hunters etc, but nobody labeling themselves as terrorists. Even on the Eve personality test, the closest thing to a terrorist I could see was a "freedom fighter".

If there is no such thing as a terrorist in Eve, I may have to look further into the subject Twisted


One man's Freedom Fighter is another man's terrorist


(usually the two men involved disagree on other things too, you could say they're not best friends)

I guess I'll have to scour the forums for more posts about your exploits then. Big smile

Meh, I don't think making war official enough for military forces to not get involved is something terrorists do :)


Low security space pirates are KOS in high security space. This might qualify.

As Schmata said, people preying on nullsec renters are the closest you can get to terrorists in EVE.

1) they often do more damage with fear than with actual ganks

2) I guess some of them may have what you could call a 'political agenda' - for example to convince renters that renting is not worth it and/or that their landlords screwed them; possibly to point them towards the other landlords

Well, what is more terrifying (let's assume for a moment you get terrified by pixels, ok?): flashy red skull wearing -10 that everybody gets system wide warning about and you know he's there to cause troubles

OR

your dedicated ore hauler suddenly returning from station in cat instead of miasmos and suiciding on your fresh hulk?

You know ebilpiwate iz bad and you expect only worst from him but your carebear friend who you talked to and exchanged funny pictures with since months? If you cannot trust people like him who can you trust? Nobody!

The horror, the horror...

the thing is people you consider as terrorists don't consider them self as terrorists they see them self as freedom fighters

the only difference between a freedom fighter and a terrorist is point of view during the conflict.

if the terrorist/freedom fighters win history will remember them as freedom fighters if they lose history will remember them as a terrorist group that was taken out.

We terrorized one renter so badly with a single ceptor that he ejected from his barge and warped off leaving a trail of feces in the sky before the ceptor pilot noticed the pod popping possibility.

Edit: Looks like Mr. Kane clarified above that this didn't go forward.
