Yeah isn't it great how you can be a cubicle worker in EVE, keep your head down and do as you're told. The large groups are always looking for new players, warm bodies to fuel the war machine. Enlist now and you too can be a grunt.

But of course! Although with a low-sec static I do find myself out and about.

Speaking of wormholes, yesterday I found an invisible one! Everyone else could see it but not me. I've never heard of such a thing, but there it was(n't). For some reason when I ejected from my ship, it appeared! Crazy.

Well... if we are showing videos of "REAL EVE" then maybe I should bring out an old video made by a corpmate.

There has been some weirdness lately related to changing ships in station where the rats would not see your ship and instead aggro and auto vaporise any drones you had out. Ejecting in space and re-entering your ship seemed to fix it. Maybe it is connected.

OMFG! Fluffers that video is awesome! I giggled through the whole thing.

That video make me think of something along the line of "if, like me, you feel like you are constantly wading around in the shallow end of the gene pool then Eve might be the game for you".

For context, no one in that video was sober. At any point in time.

Seen that happen a few times recently.

Also ghost ships. Even ghost pods.

A ship dies or jumps a hole yet still appears to be on grid. It's invulnerable though and you can't lock it. It'll stay there until server reset and is visible on Dscan etc. We encountered a ghost pod yesterday and one of my corpmates actually boarded it! He then boarded his own ship once more and this caused the pod to vanish.

Spooky...

Yeah! I couldn't see my corpmates either though they were sitting right next to me. One of them scrammed me and it showed on my HUD but still didn't show his ship on my overview or in space! They kept jumping in and out of the invisible hole to mock me. Big smile

Had a similar situation recently when we were fighting HK on a hole. Overview was littered with ghost ships and even the hole itself wouldn't respond, as if it wasn't even there (but it was). Confused by the cluttered overview, and unable to jump when we started taking heavy damage, Dani and I lost our Legions. We petitioned the losses though due to all the bugs evident during the fight and had them both reimbursed, likewise several corpmates who also lost stuff.
