EVE General Discussion

True you've been in so many corps I had to click the button. Still though you need another year and 6 months to hit the 9 year mark. So you don't even know your own history.

Never said this was my main. Just that this toon goes back further then you said. You're so hot to try and score points on me you're starting to make this easy.

And had no problem making billions on it either. If a pillar of righteousness and space honour like Jade Constantine used the same methods prescribed by Aryth, no crimes were committed. If the glove doesn't fit- you must aquit.

Whats really funny to me, is that none of this affected me one iota, i may never reach the dizzy heights in regards to isk that these players do, but i dont care..people in goonland seem to think everything they do affects everyone, well..newsflash..it doesnt..

just a little comment from someone who was oblivious to whatevere machinations you were up to..oblivious and untouched

So posting a short story about how you outsmarted the system, and then continued to abuse a system that wasn't intended to work the way it did isn't supposed to be a slap in CCP's face? All you guys have been doing prior to your assets being removed (if that even happened) was gloating about how the goons do this and the goons do that and how great you all believe yourselves to be. As soon as you supposedly started getting assets removed you start bitching and moaning like little kids who got put in the time out corner for pissing in the middle of a crowded room. Then we hear murmurs of how you will extract your revenge on the rest of Eve "again".

Burn Jita did just about **** all to the markets, and from my understanding, didn't really "inflict mass suffering" on anyone other than yourselves. People knew it was happening so they avoided the system for the most part. You just wasted a large portion of time because you threw a temper tantrum over Mittani getting a slap on the wrist for trying to coax everyone to get a guy to kill himself.

I swear every time you guys pull some kind of ridiculousness you just make yourselves look worse and worse by spouting off how great you are. Then when you start complaining when things don't go your way it is someone else's fault, and you have some how been wronged.

It is rather entertaining.

To be honest Aryth. I said I thought your market manipulation to game the value of lp-derived items on the lp payout for ship kill was pretty imaginative stuff (selling low valued nonsense commodities to each other to make the average price go up). I applauded the creativity really - but I think we both know that kind of thing can't stand on the scale you did it on - the integrity of the game universe for everyone else is important - and there is a default unwitten rule of any game (that even transcends the eula) "don't take the ****."

In addition, I think you stretched things beyond breaking with the double-counting of LP (getting awarded kill lp for stuff that dropped as cargo so you could do it again) - regardless of how much lp that actually created there is a principle there that it was clearly dodgy.

And arguably if you did use a G15/19 style keyboard to automate the collection of items from the loyalty point store thats also effectively cheating by the rules of the game (certainly by my interpretation of the gm decisions on macro programming keyboards).

I think threatening CCP with bad publicity (viral bad vibes) etc at this point won't do you guys any good at all. Public opinion is always fascinated by scandal and heists like this - but sympathy never really lasts for people who effectively cheated at the game (on the assumption thats the judgement of course.)

You chaps really need to learn to follow the sequence of events. Arth tweeted his plan at CCP Punkaris. Everyone else who got an early sight of the document saw it at that point. Of course the heroic comrades of the TLF had made their cash-outs completely oblivious to these shennanigans some days before on saturday afternoon when they traded their legally-obtained LP's favourably on the tier 5 LP store. All in all you could call it a happy coincidence.

This thread is full of hilarity. Never before have I seen so many goon tears..

Just virtual cash, no matter the yak about so many ISK being worth so many RL dollars/euros. On the (far in the future, ofc) day that CCP inevitably shuts down the Eve servers for good, it will all vanish into the nothingness from whence it came. Keep your health - it is worth far more.

As for the eventual response from CCP Sreegs.... based on what's happened thus far, in all likelihood, you aren't going to like it, nor agree with it. But, I think you know that arguing with (or complaining about) Sreegs, after a decision has been made, is somewhat counter-productive.

I'd advise just to roll with it, shrug your shoulders, and move on. Others, who have nothing better to do with their time, will gladly keep the issue, and any necessary outrage, alive on the forums and blogs on your behalf.

We are the shadow that comes by night and builds your house.


Ninjitsu in it's various incarnations, rolled slightly over 100 cap ships, and nearly 1k HACs in addition to our Tech II munitions lines and happily delivered to any system in eve if the price was right. Most of us have since left eve.

And, you must not notice the theme in my corp names.





I know, right? Paint keeps trying, but s(he) just keeps sounding desperate.
