Kinda scratching my head at these defeat code threads. Their organization is semi-dormant, all their FCs have quit...and their leader is nowhere to be found. Not to mention their spectacular failure in actually changing the risk/reward balance.

Asking how to beat code is like asking how to beat walter mondale...you win just by showing up.

Our leader is nowhere to be found? John E Normus is frequently to be found in the minerbumping channel and in highsec. As for FCs, it's seldom I don't see one on our TS server and more in-game.

Now for my favourite part - stats.

Code: 2,052 kills in the last 14 days.
Veers Belvar: 0

Ok, that's not really fair. Let's throw in January, December and November as well for him, giving us a grand total of *drumroll*

The logical way to defeat Code would be to uninstall this game and go about your business irl.

Just like Peter Pan left Never Never Land in the film Hook to grow up.

He even gave his stuff away to the Lost Boys before he left, but he still came back i suppose.

Who would play the various roles if they made a C&P remake of that classic is open to debate.

It would likely be a stinker of a film but i'm sure the tear jerking finale would be a blast.

Veers is certainly ahead in the "how many troll threads can i maintain in C&P this month" category. I hope his RL position as senior online legal document provider doesn't suffer.

Oh boy...there is a keeper...calling PvE players "carebears," "victims," "whiners," "prey," etc....isn't trolling....declaring that james 315 was somehow "elected" "savior of highsec" isn't trolling....but pointing out that code is failing in it's stated mission is trolling. Gotta give you credit for Alice in Wonderland style consistency.

John is only leader because James and Loyalanon, among others, quit the post. That doesn't exactly sound like a winning record. Further, highsec has more PvE than ever, your 2000 kills are but a drop in the bucket. And comparing kills with a PvE player.....Roll

FFS Veers stop being bad!

The New Order is a hierarchy with James at the very top.

There are several other leaders in the New Order and CODE. alliance alike.

James didn't quit, I don't know why you keep saying this. When the blog stops, then you can say James quit. Until then he's very much attached to what's going on with New Order and CODE. affairs.

Writing some blog posts and logging in once a month to send some isk is not "playing the game." He has given up...and it is time for you to do the same. The whole agenda to radically change highsec was flawed from the getgo...a few bored nullsec folks with some catalysts have no ability to materially change the gameplay experience of thousands of highsec PvE players. To think otherwise was always foolish.

Sad to see you waste your time on this hopeless endeavor...stick to wormholes.

Some? You mean usually once per day.

Playing a game is relative. Could logging into a video game be considered playing said video game? Some would say that technically does constitute playing that video game, others of course would say otherwise. I suppose you lean more towards the latter? I don't know about you, but if someone logged into a video game, intimately checked their in-game emails, wrote about those emails on a blog and handed out in-game currency for acting in one's behalf, yeah I'd say that's playing a video game. I'd also say that's brilliant.

I started in Highsec with a Thrasher.

e: Well... a Rifter which I used to can flip in, then a Thrasher.

Good try Ms. Foxxie....from the blog posts I identify at least three distinct human writers...so James is certainly not writing every day.

And no, logging in to check mail and write is not playing the game. James tried bumping, tried ganking, tried running for CSM, tried fundamentally changing highsec, failed everywhere, and left the game. It's a sad tale Foxxie...and I'm worried the same will happen to you. Leave code before the stench of failure compels you to unsub.

Everything in EVE is a trap.

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

Neither James 315, nor Loyalanon have ever held the position of CODE.'s executor. John's predecessor was Aria Stane, who founded the alliance. Try again.

My prediction is once CCP fixes, yes fixes, SOV is the null bears will be too busy duking it out to even worry about trolling in high sec. Afterwards ganking will decrease back down to normal levels. It won't cease to exsist but won't be nearly as prevalent as it is now. There hasn't been a significant war in SOV null sec for some time. Why bother when the current mechanics are so broken and grindtastic.

I try to be nice and mind my business just shooting lasers at rocks. There is just way too many asshats in New Eden for that to happen.

Oh, this should be good. What is your definition of "normal levels"?

If ganking was to return to previous historical levels, it would actually increase, not decrease.

Which is less prevalent than it has been in the past.
