It is actually fun for pretty much anyone not flying freighters or stupidly expensive ships. It might even be fun for them if they enjoy the excitement of trying to dodge us.

For every person here who says it was no big deal, there were a hundred people who were chasing us around to kill us when we went criminal, blapping us on undocks using kill rights, scooping up the billions of isk of loot we dropped and the loot in the ships we ganked, etc, etc, etc.



If Burn Jita was a non-event for you, you were doing it wrong.



Meh, no skin off my back

Personally I had more fun with my market alt looting ships, throwing the loot on the market, repeated until I ran out of cheap ships...

Damn I have been missing most of it then, all I have seen is a flagged Thrasher warp to the Jita gate in New Caldari and get insta popped by about 200 Concord and then he warped off in his pod looking kind of sad Cry

I enjoyed it. My main toon made over a billion Isk. Blink
I was able to PLEX my account & have a lot of spare change thanks to Burn Jita 2. P
The smart bombing battleships didn't disscourage me from looting the field. Shocked

Was a busy weekend. Friday I was poor 63mill & now I have a PLEX & 590mill in my mains account lol. Bear

Well done to all involved, a great event that switched things up for a few days. The game would be worse off without you guys.
Credit to the counter offensive also, Marmite, Whores etc., successful or not, they brought an added dimension to the whole event. A really enjoyable weekend, thank you.

BEST post ever about Jita Burn II. They locked it so you can't reply.

If the Goon Federation wasn't around I believe EvE would be boring, Thanks to all the collaboration of everyone involved for making JITA an exciting sector this last weekend.

I miss mOo. Somehow they seemed much scarier than the goons.

DBRB streamed for about 40 hours over the course of 3 days. That guy is insane.

Could be.
But then why was I allowed to escape with my cargo?
Twice, actually.

I'm not a hotshot pilot by any stretch of the imagination, but I flew in and out like I always do - the solitary attempt to lock my freighter up failed rather convincingly.

Tell someone you love them today, because life is short. But scream it at them in Esperanto, because life is also terrifying and confusing.

Someone was trolling, and badly... Blink

You said "empty". Re-read YOUR post. Now it suddenly wasn't empty?

And assuming you're NOT trolling, maybe your empty non-empty cargo wasn't valuable enough for them to lose the isk on?

More likely he WAS scanned, however if he was leaving the station that means he was still in docking range... making him a fairly unattractive target.

It's like he has no idea what passive scanners are, or how ganking/freighter mechanics work.

Not a ganker, so yes, that's probably an accurate summation. My freight skills are just enough to do the tower-fueling work necessary, and nothing beyond that.

Ginger Barbarella; Go back and read the rest. Someone *is* trolling badly, and it isn't me. Left with a full hull, came back empty. Last night, did it again.* I'm given to understand that the 'event' is still on? Yes? So I got away again.
Someone tells me I was probably scanned passively - I'm making no bones about my lack of understanding how that works - So I'll presume he was right. Which means that someone probably did know what I was carrying. And I got away anyway.

Ranger1; Unattractive target at undock, but last night's delivery went 22 hops, including through the Jita peripheral systems. Surely someone could've been informed and be waiting me?



*OK, not entirely full the second time - 17K cubes worth of fuel. Just enough to finish topping the tower to the brim.

So I guess it's just me who is puzzled about that little part where he said that his freighter is "failfit" and he hasn't ever changed its "fit" because never felt that it was needed?
