*sigh*
Really? My starting a corporation and alliance dedicated to showing people how to fight back means we can't go can flipping? For fucks sake... Read below.


Beo Beo can flipping?

To: Xystance,

So we're out here mining in our belt, and here comes Beo Beo, and flips one of our nearly full cans. He's red. We fold up, and sit, waiting for him to leave, and he stays around, waiting for us to retaliate. So we look at his info, and lo and behold, he's in your corp, which is part of "The 99 Percent".

So what is this? The rapist plaguing the women's tent? The homeless drinking the lattes? Or are you just as lost as the protesters of the OWS? lol

To: The 99 Percent, Aaron Faulkner,

Jesus Christ.

You appear to have a misunderstanding about what we are about, so I'm going to try and make this clear as crystal.

This game we call Eve is enormous and has a ton of stuff to do and to see in it. High security space has some of that stuff, and while I have made it clear I have no love for high sec, it's still part of the game and has a HUGE amount of people and it's those people I am focusing on. I want to pull people from out here, show them how to have a good time and show them they don't have to take peoples ****, they can sit back, organize, figure out what to do, and respond / retaliate / whatever.

Showing people how to have a good time does not mean imposing a a broad all-encompassing set of ethics on people which would include "no can flipping guys because it's mean".

My response to you Aaron Faulkner, is that while I'm not telling my alliance mates to go out and can flip, I'm not telling them not to. If you don't like that, form up your own little defense fleet and ******* go after him. Fit a point on your supertanked badger and hold him down until the cavalry arrive. Teach him a ******* lesson for messing with you and if you don't know how?

Consider joining the United Highsec Front and figure out how.

... because for fucks sake, if you get can flipped ******* go postal and own his ass and make a fool out of him.

I've awarded Beo Beo a medal, "The Fleshfghter" for taking action result in your complaint.

He could have also taken the easy step of setting a password on his container. It is called a Giant SECURE Container for a reason. (Using a jet can is just silly, and if that is what he was doing... then vOv.)

The Belt Police would like to investigate this Aaron Faulkner person and his corp. Please let us know where this perp was located while illegally storing ore in an unsecure can so that we may pursue this lead.

Thanks in advance. :)

Too many times I have explained how my father died in a jet can accident.
After I leave in a wreathe full of ore.
Not after tears or pvp.
It's an RP thing.

Ahem..that is the IEEE's purview. It goes under improperly run mining operations.

Please stand down your actions in this matter immediately.

LOL Yep, about the response I figured I would get. Thought we would give you the benefit of the doubt, but you make about as much sense as we thought you would. See you around then.

You can lead a horse to water, but you'll have to brutally beat him to make him drink. Blow them up a couple of times, they'll learn.

You have a choice.

You can choose to be a student of the experience or, a victim of the circumstance.

However if he was can flipping in a starter system it's against the EULA, but it doesn't sound like he was?


PS. If you are criticizing the OWS people, clearly you watch FOX propoganda, or are part of the 1%.

Regardless, we will be happy to teach you, sledgehammer tact included.

Hey, someone had to pick up the slack. It's not like Asteroid Belt Justice exists in a vacuum...

Oh wait. I guess, technically, it does. :D

The detection and correction of improper industrial activities is not limited to high security space. We in Peek-a-Boo Bombers make it a point to ensure the denizens of w-space fly in properly tanked ships with significant escorts. Should we detect an improper salvage or mining operation, we will engage and destroy the poorly protected industrial ships. This has resulted in several corps and alliances either folding up entirely, or adopting proper fleet escorts.

My tear cup runneth over.

This.

People learn from being brutally maimed, having near-death experiences, or getting their **** blown the **** up. Those that don't create petitions and cry like little *****es until they get told by a GM "working as intended."

I salute the efforts of those attempting to promote violence amongst the carebears. Maybe they'll start fighting over rocks again like in the good old days. Albeit unlikely, it would be nice to see a little industrial competition at gunpoint.
