EVE General Discussion

How much time do we have to do this?
Kelduum has promised a medal for everyone who stays in the University for the whole Hell month, so if we join RANKS we would lose that one...

Yeah, I took a bunch of screenshots of the IVY tour and stitched them together as Kelduum's Cavalry 9/11. I already posted it earlier.

The close-up shots of the Hurricane is Kelduum Revaan, our mission FC, IVY CEO, and Dark Lord of the Sith.

Burseg Sardaukar ! Damn, that brings back great memories of the Dune Universe

The "party" was 17 jumps away from me, into Amarr space, where my life was threatened by the Amarr Navy, thanks to my dismal standings due to doing missions for Gallente. I was glad to reach the system everyone involved gathered at in one piece. It was only 17 jumps from my homebase in Highsec, but those were a very dodgy 17 jumps

What really excited me was the fact that so many different players, from all sorts of alliances and corps, got together at what was basically the drop of a hat. Yes, it could have been better organised - given more time, but this is what makes Eve real to me, this is why I pay subs and ignore 80% of the bad press CCP et al are getting over Incarna.

Incarna is not the end-all, say-all or do-all of Eve. It has not "broken" the game for me, especially after this spontaneous event took place.

Once again, kudos to the Fleet Commanders for their (obvious) experience in running fleets. It was an evening I personally have marked in my memories as my first "real" Eve experience. My several NDE's (near death experiences) on the night gave me a rush I have not experienced in a long time of playing MMO's. It's not the PvP, it's the action and interaction.

I look forward to one day joining a decent Corporation so that I can partake in more Fleet battles and Incursions
Hopefully that day is not too far off for me - I just have to convince myself that my skills are decent enough, that my experience is fair enough, where I can contribute something positive when joining a Corp.

Cheers Burseg, I hope to see you in a fleet battle soon.

Which is more important?
"Heeded the clarion call to assist the closest thing to a living God in the cluster", or
"Made it through a month of school".

Just asking ...

If it was the DRF I liked to see what type of stuff would posted about Dear Chribbas system. Ya'll are lame to come on here acting as though you really care for this one man's system (I understand Chribbas history) but you guys fail to give two ***** bout the other thousands of systems that went through what Providence is going through now.

Before you can care bout somebody else's system yall should try to unite and care bout the state of the game. Instead of becoming just another "Bot" in the DRF cause. Then coming on here to show how E-brave you are in the face of adversity.

I respect Chribbas history and have even taken the time to tell my Corp-mates a little I know about him, but this is funny.. we need more post like this when the Red is knocking on peoples doors.

Chribba himself I hope can see what I mean. It's cool to be worshipped and all, but perhaps Chribba should use his nobility and fame to get the real motivation from the playerbase.. Implosion of the Blob!

Being just a Newb provides you with a good chance to view the.game with the unsore eyes if bitter-vettness.. its not hard to find out what the DRF are about. If you choose to believe the hype on them bobbing for the better of EvE, then you have chosen to close your eyes to the real fact. They do it for the Botting, they do it for the RMT, they do it to grief. Not to unify people against CCP..

I Know CCP put super-caps in the game, but they aren't the ones that choose to abuse the mechanics of the super and sov warfare. That was the blob and those that went under their "control".

"If you can't beat em' become their *****'.." mentality has led the game and 0.0. To this state IMHO, but I'm no expert..I'm just an unbitter-newb. Who hasn't been blobwashed and forgotten about why I play the game..

It peaked out just under 280, given the lack of warning to CCP about this happening I'm a bit surprised that the node held up with as little lag as it did.

I can fly/fight in almost anything that's needed, I'm in if there's a spot just tell me what ye want.

Cry Moar. The reason the game has probably gotten so far and successful is with the aid of chribba, he in my opinion and probably many others is the greatest influence outside of CCP. The reason everyone runs to his aid is because of his status and how he has in turn aided the game.

The reason nobody gives two ***** about you in providence is because what have you done for the game that justifies the help? Also because providence and many other systems change hands so often and have done for years, and finally because chribba keeps his station open for all to use, that most likely is not the case for the rest of null.

The DRF taking over all of null sec is a good thing, not because they will control all of null but it shows that null sec is broken and can be taken, with the exception of NPC space, by a single coalition blobbing with extreme numbers of supercaps and will hopefully get fixed.

I have about 10 Interbus shuttles ready to hotdrop anyone in case the situation should become too hot for regular fleet material.
