EVE General Discussion

I went away for awhile, just came back, when I left I deleted a two year old main (that I secretly hated anyway), and gave away all my stuff. I knew I was coming back, I just wanted to be mister "take my stuff, please" for a day. Pretty lulzy.

Stupidest: Forgetting my drones when trying to deagress and jump/dock a couple times. Also brazenly warping my non-buffered dual-rep Domi into a fleet of 10 gank cruisers as bait. Yeah, they took that bait - and fast!

Ballsiest: Most recent I'd say is bumping a Rorqual as it undocked in Stain (T-8) and keeping it from aligning out to the POS it was trying for with absolutely no backup of my own. Eventually I got him outside the docking ring -- his friends in station never undocked to help. However, another enemy fleet scout HAD taken notice and local spiked with his fleet as a rapier uncloaked to grab tackle. I gave the rorqual one more bump for good measure and headed my tempest back to docking range for safety. I also fired a few shots in case they killed him in time. I'd done the legwork to setup the kill, I figured I deserved some credit. Sure enough, he died, got bubbled, podded and rage-logged for a good while.

(Maybe not the ballsiest, but the biggest bang for the balls by far)


Weirdest: Ages ago in lowsec, a small corp pissed off my corp and then they decided to put up a POS in our home system. I took great pleasure in slowly peeling mods off one at a time ninja-pos-bash-style. The best part was catching one of their guys outside the tower repping his guns one day in a battleship. I happened to be in a Domi with lots of drone control range mods up top and was using my Ogres to pick on the their POS from outside 150k point range of the tower. The guy had to have been afk because he sat still while my 5 Ogre IIs covered 160km distance, tore him apart slowly, and then took at least another minute for one of the Ogres to get enough tracking to pod the poor sob. They eventually left our system :)

Joined an RP corp for ***** and giggles

However it was just sad and weird

**** talked in local and started a war

Got a guy **** talking in local that had been in his corp less than a day booted out of his corp by copy pasta all the "Ill get my corp an alliance to kick the **** out of yours" **** he was talking in local and sending it to his corp's CEO
--that was funny

(this isnt mine but its damned funny anyways)
A few corps back, our CEO (dude's name insnt important cause he sold that character after this - no joke) decided he wanted a POS in low sec. We were a highsec corp, mostly mission runners and miners, a few ppl interested in PVP.
We'd joined a fairly large industrial alliance the day before.
They had no PVP corps

Anyhoo, our CEO finds this neat little pocket of lowsec surrounded by jumps and jumps on highsec. He decides this is the perfect place to put it. A friend an I scout out the area and tell him it belongs to S I L E N T. an we really dont wanna **** with them.

He says this:
"Its OK, theres highsec all around the low sec area. The only way they could get cap ships into the area would be to have built them in the low sec pocket an that would be stupid."
-mind you I had at this point never even SEEN a cap ship, an had no idea how jump drives even worked, assumed (lol) he knew what he was talking about, I let it go. My friend, was trying to talk him out of the idea for a week.

The POS is anchored, and onlined. During this process, a Proteus is seem in system, but it doesnt bother anyone. We decide to name the thing something like Aegis Shield POS and are all proud that we have a low sec POS. My friend is saying we may wanna think about leaving the corp.

An hour later...
Im on Teamspeak when a random guy in the POS starts yelling about ships warping into the system, and seeing reds, stuff like that. Im curious, engage a jump clone, grab a shuttle, and hop to the POS.
There was a Revelation, another DN and a good 300 support ships all in a tight cluster around the POS, blowing the hell out of it.
The fight was short, we hadnt had the chance to put much into the thing so it didnt last long, we didnt even have guns on it. The alliance guys kinda shook their heads at our CEO's stupidity, and was gonna move on.

Then they war decced the alliance

Our CEO went "Well... good luck with that guys, im gonna leave an go to 0.0 to see how the big corps work"
He docked, an I didnt see him again for like 6 months

We quit the corp the night of the wardec, given that the writing was on the wall for that corp, I watched S I L E N T.'s killboards for a few weeks afterwards, an yeah they were having fun.

Thats about the stupidest thing I can really think Ive seen in this game lol

Started playing Eve Online.

But I got over it. Main account already expired, this one in a few hours and the third is a few days.

No! You can't haz my stuff! I may come back someday.

Fly safe, all.

On my main... on a op deep in enemy territory, somehow fell asleep while on a gate. woke up 40 minutes later realising what I had don't. Apparently friendly gang was sitting in a safespot a few jumps away while the FC was sitting cloaked with me. Didn't lose my ship even though the enemy gang was in the system so apparently they thought I was bait. Kinda got shouted at by the FC but was rather funny

For me it was probably when, as a new player, I decided to start killing NPC convoys outside of stations in empire. I just wanted to know what was inside. It was a great moment for me when I realized CONCORD didn't intervene... and I started killing lots of them. I hosed my faction standings w/ many a NPC corp though...


BTW... if anyone is looking for Amarr bibles I know where you can get a deal on a zillion...

two things for ballsiest/stupidest things and one definate stupid moment


1st Ballsy/Stupid one, Flying an Orca with a Hulk and mack and various other mining ships in cargo and hanger 30+ jumps through high sec during the height of one of the hulkageddons.

2nd Ballsy/Stupid one, Whilst evacuating from ATLAS space when my alliance was renting from them, No WH so decided to fly from ATLAS 0.0 to Octanneve in one go with a billion isk clone in my pod. Made it too :)

Stupidest Moment, Jumping into Jita when we were wardecc'd by the orphanage. I had dropped roles and just had to dock to quit corp. Docked in 4/4 and bought something shiny then undocked locked and podded within miliseconds goodbye faithful billion isk clone :(

Stupidest: Went canflipping in a Tengu. Lost the Tengu (But I ejected before dying so it's all good :smug:)

Weirdest: not quite sure what would qualify as weird.

OH WAIT. I stranded a noob in a wormhole from Arnon on purpose and ransomed him the way back out. That was pretty weird... and hilarious.

Ballsiest: I have no balls.
