I though ''Burn Jita'' was a once in a lifetime event,like the monocle incident, dunno why I keep thinking of Jita Riots when I think of Burn Jita.

So how does this work? Is it a FFA VS Goons when they come out of their hole? Do we cower in fear while docked as we see local spike? Do we wardec gewns for a chance of glorious killmails?

Being a late to EvE means I don't know the background of silly events like this.


Also, as the event goes on? stay away from Jita? I can only imagine that the market will go crazy with certain modules since they did post their fit and also because the trade hub will be closed so prices for ''normal'' commodities will sky rocket as well


Just leave CONCORD to take care of the goons and allow the goons have their moment in the spotlight.

Nice. :)


I just haven't found my way out of high-sec yet.
*Snip* Removed off topic part of the post. ISD Ezwal.

Nonetheless, I hate fking high-sec, and the specifically the people in it.
Hopefully soon I can become an proper angry hermit in a WH somewhere.

Can't be only that,

Let's just be happy about something we can agree on. :)

Listen to your queen.

Stop this, because you will just bounce around,
echoing and mirroring negativity.

It's pointless pointing at people who did this or that
or whatever. We all agree to have issues of some sort.

Be done with it.

Instead, listen to the powerpuff theme song!

Thanks!

Lead through example. I'll consider your slate clean until you dirty it, then the weight and reality of the words will be brought down with true moral authority.

So until then:

Without made-up enemies, spaceship battle game would be no fun. "I want to blow you up because of *reasons*," is a perfectly valid excuse.

Don't go to Jita this weekend in your freighter. Someone might blow it up. Why? *reasons*.

Hello Baltec, would you please be kind enough to explain to the good folk of Eve, how and why Burn Jita is the fault of hi-sec players?

at a guess, the answer will probably be close to the following;

By the way I'm selling Jita safety permits to anyone who wants one, price is negotiable and there's a special discount if you're Gevlon Goblin or Dinsdale. I'm not an evil Goon so you can trust me.

Please don't forget about the important going away party we're throwing in Kinakka (just 9 jumps from Jita!) for one of the Waffles who is retiring from EVE due to real life taking more time than he can afford to spend shooting carebears.

What would every recommend for the innocent pilot who merely wants to fly around and jack loot???


And if said pilot would also be willing to offer the occasional bump to assist with the dropping of such loot to be jacked?Twisted

I was hunting for sick loot, but all I could get my hands on were 50 corpses[:|]..............[:=d]

I find it gloriously ironic that this thread has become, in a nutshell, why this event happens, and will continue to happen.

Yes, it has been a couple years since a good leader promised an event to his playerbase for grabbing 10k votes, securing him again in the CSM.

Shocked

Oh? The carebears don't know the real origins of Burn Jita? Well, now, that makes so much sense, doesn't it.

Roll

Literally every single player should be excited for Burn Jita.

It creates more content than any other player-ran event in the game.

Market bros can rejoice!!!

Ganker bros can rejoice!!!

Meta bros can rejoice!!!

Even carebear bros can rejoice!!!

*Snip* Please refrain from personal attacks. ISD Ezwal.


Hell....

I will give 250mil to first 5.0 carebear who flies a SB battleship into the midst of a flashy red mob of bees.

I will buy the sec tags+give 250mil for the first 5.0 carebear that smartbombs the undock, regardless of criminal flags.

Before and after screens required, ofc. Blink

And I support the "Goon" cause. That right there should be an indicator of what Burn Jita is, and will hopefully remain for years to come.

Fun. Plain and simple.

A lot of people in this thread could probably use some. It would cut down on the rage.

I, for one, tip my hat to the "Dear Glorious Socialist Dictator," sitting in smug contemplation atop his tower of Mittaningrad. Blink

Because when the "stratops ping" went out on TMC....it didn't go out for the "entire ******* CFC."

It went out for the "entire ******* EvE playerbase."

So have fun with it. It is "EvE Christmas." It only comes once a year. *Snip* Please refrain from personal attacks. ISD Ezwal.

Just saying.

Even better, lol.

And it has to be a legit, primary profession carebear.

No cheats or hax. Shocked

No Miner Dave, you are not included.

We belong the same "sociopathic" community, remember?

Ugh. Gosh.

*edit

Misread that one, lol.

I logged onto the forums, saw this thread....

And the sperge had some unexpected side effects...

Give me a few moments to put myself back together.

*Snip* Removed trolling part of the post. ISD Ezwal.

I moved one of my alts there and am thinking of moving one more. I am really looking forward to my first Burn Jita. Its gonna be fun.

*Snip* Please refrain from personal attacks. ISD Ezwal.

I think a game where you can do terrible things like Burn Jita is the game worth playing for me. :)

And for the people who ask: "why do you do this?"

there is one simple answer:

"Because we can"

I have removed some rule breaking posts and those quoting them. As always I let some edge cases stay.
Please people, keep it on topic and above all civil!

The Rules:
3. Ranting is prohibited.

A rant is a post that is often filled with angry and counterproductive comments. A free exchange of ideas is essential to building a strong sense of community and is helpful in development of the game and community. Rants are disruptive, and incite flaming and trolling. Please post your thoughts in a concise and clear manner while avoiding going off on rambling tangents.

4. Personal attacks are prohibited.

Commonly known as flaming, personal attacks are posts that are designed to personally berate or insult another forum user. Posts of this nature are not beneficial to the community spirit that CCP promote and as such they will not be tolerated.

5. Trolling is prohibited.

Trolling is a defined as a post that is deliberately designed for the purpose of angering and insulting other players in an attempt to incite retaliation or an emotional response. Posts of this nature are disruptive, often abusive and do not contribute to the sense of community that CCP promote.

26. Off-topic posting is prohibited.

Off-topic posting is permitted within reason, as sometimes a single comment may color or lighten the tone of discussion. However, excessive posting of off-topic remarks in an attempt to derail a thread may result in the thread being locked, or a forum warning being issued.


As some might wonder where their entirely on-topic, constructive and generally non-rule breaking posts have gone, I refer to this explanation given by me in an other thread.


Thread reopened.
