I was a little bored today, so I took a stroll to my nearest Navy station and sized up the agents available there. Without actually checking my required standings, I double-clicked on this guy and got this snippy response:

What planet were you born on? Check your standings next time or I'll drill a hole in you.



I'm like, "Ok wanktard, I'll check my standings, and then I'll increase them if necessary and you'll HAVE to give me a mission!"


Thoughts please...and TBC...

Considering how much power capsuleers have that sure does sound pretty high and might of him.

That was pretty much my thought, you know, given that we are supposed to be these near-immortal demi-godlets...

Coincidentally, I actually just got the standings required to use this particular agent.


Being a man of action that I am, I initiate a convo with him, only to be greeted with...

Does he read the forums, I wonder? Lol

I think that's specific to locator agents, so when you try and talk to them they just tell you to **** off in a lot less uncertain terms then usual ("Begone, Scum."), after that you get the bland standings response when you try and grab a mission off them.

In the meantime, I await the day I get turned down by an Amarrian agent because I'm a witless heathen in need of purging... my efforts at trying to get jobs off them aren't going too well either.

Ugh

And yet mere mortals and their primarily mortal corporations are responsible for the cloning facilities most capsuleers are granted partial immortality. While it's probably less than wise for the agents to be so uncouth, they do have something of a potential knife to the throats of most capsuleers.

That is very true - however, the impression I get from Agents is that their respective navies are pretty much hopeless at almost any given task, with the possible exception of hauling (...actually, scrap that!), and they need us to rescue them out of scrapes and whatnot at a moment's notice.

Sad really, when you think about it :(

You should sit outside the station in a Tornado and wait for him to undock, so you can gank him and teach him a lesson. Patience is key.

Might explain why my agent parks his ship in the Handicap spot.

To buck the popular trend, I began to Rage Start instead of Rage Quit.
