I wasn't there, but understand some ships were cyno'd in so close, they could hit their opponents with their swords.

Pretty much, I was flying in formation with a pair of zealots at like 10km for almost an hour.

The fight started with an emergency warp for TEST's EWAR wing, they warped straight to station....which had 7 mega fleets orbiting it.

After that everyone was zoomed out and fighting with module activation for the rest of the evening.

Youre welcome.



Liar, if you had cloaky camped 6vdt, 4000 characters would have docked up or logged off...according to every single poster who has ever included the words "cloak" and "afk" in a post Twisted


Well, in my defense, its only the risk adverse players and bots who dock up when a AFK cloaker is in system. It just so happens that all 4000ish people who aren't bots or risk adverse players in Eve were in that system, so my plan didn't work out the way I had hoped.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Props to TEST for fighting and not standing down compared to other alliances who would of.. And props to CFC for fighting and winning the fountain campaign.



On a side note, this is why groups like TEST and Goons generate so much damn jealousy/hatred from some people. TEST and Goons (and the scammers and cheats and gankers and pirates) and the like are actually doing noteworthy things and contributing to the health (all those dead ships need replacing, have at it, carebears) and notoriety of EVE online.

Meanwhile, all the nice guy 'bears who love to talk about "sociopaths" are playing solo in protected space. Their existence in EVE online will come to the same conclusion as their IRL one...no one will know or care they even existed.

Never ever underestimate Jens ability to take any topic and turn it into a HATE hi-sec thread.

Great job jenn keep up the fine work.

Awwww you misunderstand it's not hate Hi-sec. It's love EvE!

If you've never tried PvP in EvE it's quite possible you've missed out on one of the greatest rushes available in modern gaming.

All things considering, even if they saw you, they couldn't do anything about it anyways.

Not for the first 2 hours anyways.

I heard that clicking on a thread and reading it is a completely voluntary activity.

I could be wrong though. Sad

Pretty sweet to see the article on BBC and others though. Discovery had one too. That's pretty nice!
