Wormholes

I don't count as a "larger WH group" but we had this.

Corp afk over a week, with a jiucy carrier hanging out in full view at their POS.

Ah, of course; not keeping a clean lawn and doing the proper yardwork is pretty impolite. Luckily there are groups that do yardwork for free!

And how could they possibly be dense enough to use the wrong ammo? That's Pos setup 102, right after "Setting your pos up".

Not sure this qualifies, but I spent three hours lurking in ambush outside a POS waiting for someone to come on out - At least three active players pressent. All they did did was noodle about inside the force field.

Agreed

I'll go all Cool Story Bro for a minute here.

Last week, one of my alliance mates had some people being idiots on a wormhole in high sec. Not that big a deal. So we form up in system, and wait. The only thing showing on that hole is a talos from our side, and a Stabber Fleet Issue from theirs. Suddenly, an itty from their side jumps in and our talos follows. One shot later, itty goes down. Pod lasted just as long. I warp into the hole and sit there in high sec, only to be told in local that the hole is owned, and that there is a hostile talos inside.

Oh ho reaaaaaaaaaaally.

So, a few minutes later I offer my services to the guy sitting there to help take the talos down. He agrees and fleets me up. So I say "Let's jump in and get this guy", hoping for a quick kill. But alas, it was not to be. He insisted in bringing friends in. Meanwhile my alliance mates waited in system.

Cut to two hours later. They managed to get a 10 man fleet with logi support to kill one guy in a talos. During the interim they had fleeted me and brought me into their intel channel. We just had to sit and wait. Eventually though, we got bored. So I proceeded to jump in and claimed to get the talos to half armor before jumping back. Naturally, since the guy was on my side, didn't fire once. But it took me claiming that to get these guys to jump a ten man fleet on top of a talos.

Once they realized that he and I were the same alliance (since they couldn't be bothered to put eyes on their side of the hole), I was promptly booted from fleet and their intel channel. We jumped our fleet in to engage the fleet that was there, but they all warped off. All 14 of them. They had jumped a few more over while we weren't watching but to no avail. All of them ran and then they tried to claim that they were really good at pvp.

So we crashed their hole and left 5 of their members sitting in high sec.

I know, boring ending, I'm sorry. But sometimes you get blue balled in wormhole space.

I'm visiting an awful lot of w-space systems these days ... trying, trying, trying to find volunteers for my noob PvP efforts.

Some of the setups I find are truley beautiful creations. Some have everything lined up neatly and evenly space ... the well manicured lawn previously mentioned. Some look like they came from an egg dropped from height ... everything all over the place. Some bristle with weapons and others are artistically minimalist. Some I just look at in awe, and some I refer to my more experienced alliance-colleagues for attention.

The most awe inspiring so far was in a C1 a couple weeks ago. It was a large faction tower surrounded by 74 faction mods. Every module that could be fitted faction was fitted faction. There were several SMAs so I also assume they have capitals in there. From memory a Korean corp. Not too far from my main ops TZ, so I have a babysitter in system for when I get a bit more confident / competent with killing people.

That's the thing about this new subforum I love. We can swap more stories like that and it makes more sense than putting it in W&T or C&P.

Did I hear a hook for a new thread AND an excuse to fly around blowing more things up? In the same sentence? Awwww yeah.

Whiskey.
Tango.
Foxtrot.

Best story for me was how KAIRS got started wanting to do pvp.

We were in our static, and we just ran a few anoms. Our thrasher was salvaging the second to last one, when a bomb decloaked and popped up. He was apparently a friend of the residents that we didn't see. Needless to say, we are all a little butthurt about losing our nanoribbons.

We decided to put eyes on their pos, to see wtf happened. I warp my scan alt over and as soon I drop out of warp, their pos shields go down. I guess he ran out of fuel or something. After letting the guys in fleet know, we get a combat ship over there to start shooting. Well, a hauler full of pos fuel lands at the same as our combat ship, and it's goodbye fuel. This is when we decide to do something about getting our salvager popped. His pos needs to die.

So we warp our entire fleet, and some extras from corp, and start smashing his pos. He calls in people from a lowsec hole in the wormhole to come help him. They bring about 10 guys but warp in 2-3 at a time. Needless to say, that doesn't end well for them. They start arguing with the pos owner over getting wrecked, and we proceed to destroy everything that guy owned.

From then on out, we decided pvp was a lot more fun
