Warning Re: Useless Mercs - Worm Hole./Honorable Third Party

Today Ocularis Inferno engaged in the final stages of an eviction of a wormhole, who promised to hire mercs. Well, the first set of 'mercs' they hired, noted above, is the corporation known as Worm Hole. (http://evewho.com/corp/Worm+Hole.), from the alliance Honorable Third Party (http://evewho.com/alli/Honorable+Third+Party) who apparently don't understand the meaning of the word mercenary.

They scammed our targets out of ISK, then offered up the POS password to my people for no compensation. They additionally offered to string along their clients for more ISK, as well as a 'tip' from us for this hilariously useless information. Be aware that they are a hilarious excuse for mercenaries (much to my disappointment), and should be avoided at all costs.

On a (probably?) related note, they hired Forsaken Asylum as well, and I for one look forward to generating killmails.

So...what is it you are trying to say?

Sounds like these guys did you a huge favor or three.

Forsaken Asylum is probably going to give you some tough fights tho.

Everything in EVE is a trap.

And if it isn't, it's your job to make it a trap...:)

I'm saying the guys I mentioned are a waste of ISK and I like to fight. I look forward to seeing Forsaken Asylum and The Pursuit of Happiness on my overview, and we are arranging for probes to be contracted to them shortly.

We are saying a few simple things, do try to keep up?

1 - The Merc corp in question is bad
2 - We like fights. Even better if they just show right up on our doorstep
3 - We look forward to the new round of good fights, but suspect we may need to train them how to scan first. Classes start at 1400 every Tuesday.
4 - When in doubt, shoot a fleet mate. This will ensure you are on SOMEONES killmail.

Not everyone has the same definition of PvP as the OP, nor are all their goals the same.

It seems to me that the goal of the merc corp in question is to make money (which they did by scamming the folks who hired them) and cause some mayhem and destruction with those who hire them (which I hope ensued after offering up a POS password for free).

If I'm right, they are a wonderful merc group, just not one that any smart corp should ever hire. Fortunately for them, there is no shortage of viable employers.

Well Mike clearly needed help in keeping up. We dont have time to explain everything as if we are talking to 2nd graders. I see that we were mistaken on both Mr. Mike and yourself.

I would think any corp seriously interested in merc contracts would want to risk their long term repuation (and money making ability) for some short term gain. In fact your last line is a bit contradictory. A merc corp that no smart corp should ever hire isn't really a very good merc corp at all.

Scam corp maybe.

Day 1 - Contract for probes denied. We assume they have trained up their own scanners, so we are vigilant. The walls are manned and POS's fueled. We stand at high alert, with the occasional caffeine induced twitch. We did form up a farm fleet and make roughly 600 million isk in PVE, keeping a wary eye out for hostiles on our overview.

We fear they are planning an impressive and overwhelming drop to wipe our ships from the grid like so many cockroaches. We remain alert.

Spent the entire hour it took us to earn all that isk nervously bashing dscan every 3 seconds (calculated by stopwatch), expecting mercenaries on our horizon at any second. Going to bed with an overwhelming sense of relief for today, and dread for tomorrow. And, perhaps, some lulz at carebear alliances pissing money away stupidly. I hear they like mining in hisec. Blink

You know high sec is as reachable for you as worm hole is for us, and on your case you would not even have to look for the correct system. So stop with that lousy excuse. You are not our only target, we aim efficiency on time and isk on all our work, sending dozens of hours to find a specific WH system is a sure inneficient work. But we do visit when we find the proper entrance by observing high sec movements....

btw, no impressive drop.. we never found anyone that we needed more than 7-8 people to deal with....

Sorry bud, doesn't work like that. If I was getting paid to hunt you, I'd be sitting on your undock in an hour, but I'm not, unfortunately. Poor Ood, lost their tower, then they get scammed by mercs, then they hire mercs that admit they can't be bothered to hunt us in WHs.

Oh, cupcake. That's really not how it works.

If I paid a merc corp money to make my enemies feel pain, I'd expect them to lose a few ships in the process. You're not a merc corp, you're a highsec wardec corp. For anyone who doesn't live in highsec, this has almost no effect.

I can't even really blame you guys. I mean, people are just throwing iskies at you to essentially just sit around doing nothing. Why wouldn't you take their money? You really have a solid business plan there.
