Darwin awards are for when someone dies. There's not even a death associated.

And you should get a shiptoast award for not even linking directly to the kill.

internet spaceships

are serious business sir.

and don't forget it

I just want to know how they caught him. It seems like his ship should have been pretty fast. Dude must have been chilling at a gate while afk or something.

He is in FW. Tribal Liberation Doofer is the Minmatar militia NPC corp.

Most likely wont hurt him much - 22.5 bill is peanuts for Minmatar FW farmers - still surprised he didn't use a neutral alt though - shouldn't be a problem to plex it...

Hell - even an untrained neutral noobship alt would have been better for the job...

If 22.5bil is considered peanuts these days then I honestly feel sorry for the state of EVE when it comes to the economy Roll

Well - probably not exactly peanuts, but certainly not the end of the world for the guy - you'd be surprised how much isk you can rake in from farming Minmatar FW.

Personally, I don't have a problem with it since FW is not an isk faucet.

I guess he doesn't realize those lows increase Sig radius, thereby defeating the purpose of having a faster align time. ..and all those cargo expanders.. Seriously, why a Rupture? There's a dozen ships with better align times and good size cargo capacities that will~mostly~go unnoticed, while having a much better chance of getting there.

I'll have to have a look at it and see if there is some unforeseen virtue that would make it even remotely desirable for anything but a gankboat.

Should have used a Procurer to ferry them.

This is why I spend my days chasing around the farmers. I can't put much of a dent in it though, I'm only 3 people after all.P

He should have used an orca. The corp hangar is unscannable.

I actually bothered to check this thing out. Even with level 5 skills and 3 Nanos, it doesn't do better than 3.89s Align time. It has a limited Cargo capacity, easily beat by a Probe which has 20m3 more space at base, and it has a base 130 m Sig Radius.

I must admit, I'm a little staggered. It's just sickening.

What he should have used is a neutral hauling alt, a freighter service, or any other exercise in common sense.

I'm a space mendicant, I do not run incursions, I do not mission (any more because meh)I'm hating the time spent killing red crosses (less possible) and I do not run FW alts.

CCP!! I want isk too but I'm not willing to do such effort like these dudes, I play pvp space ships game, me wants isk by killing pvp space ship pilots !

DO IT!


NAO !!!

No, no and NO!!

It's not the pilot fault, it's the ship that needs buffs. This is the proof Ruppys are really bad.
Please Mr Pilot, next time use a PIrate ship instead or hell a navy faction one, they're awesome for this too.
