*5/31 @ 02:00 EVE*


I will soon be conducting an initiation ceremony for a newly enlightened capsuleer known to many of you. This pilot has declared their intention to leave their old lives behind, and to embrace their own power and agency.

We will invite outsiders to join the live-feed of the ceremony as it happens, which we will conduct in full sight of both friends and enemies as is my tradition.

Please join us at the designated time (to be determined) to share in our joy on this happiest of days.

Anyone want to start a betting pool on who it is?

Nope. Still walking with the angels.

And I expect one would need to be better known than I to warrant such fanfare.

Sooo, you're going to launch a panty raid on Jamyl's palace?

Watch_ Fred Fred Frederation_ and stop [u]cryptozoologist[/u]! Fight against the brutal genocide of fictional creatures across New Eden! Is that a metaphor? Probably not, but the fru-fru- people will sure love it!

I dread to imagine what this forum would be like if this kind of pomp and fanfare were typical every time someone recruited a new pilot. Hell, I'd probably hop from corporation to corporation simply to see which one would throw me the best party.

No one's throwing you a party, Quaid. Ever.

Because no one cares who you work for.

Thank you for making my point. Nobody gives a damn who your underlings are, either.

I can see it now, the whole IGS full of threads like:

{CORPORATION XYZ] We Hired a New Lackey

"We're bringing a new person onboard that you don't really know or care about, but we've decided to make a big deal of it because we think you really should care. Pay attention to us!"

An often stated concept here on the IGS, but perhaps if you are uninterested see yourself out of the thread, instead of continuing to tell us how uninterested you are.

I was paid a good deal of money to come mock you, so I feel obligated to honor my client's wishes.

It's me, by the way. I'm leaving behind my old life as a Royal Amarr Institute underling to embrace my own power and agency as an IGS troll. Please wish me luck, donations accepted.

TSF is cordially invited - so long as my property is returned intact.

I have not forgotten your thievery.

*Scoffs*

You can talk to Istvaan about your precious clothing.

Although you are very likely to get much more from him than you ask for, so do be careful.



Wars have been fought for less, I might add.

My Great-Aunt on my father's side once had a two-hundred year feud with a rival Holder over mistakenly pilfered dinner plates, resulting in the eventual mutual orbital bombardment of two entire farming settlements.

We Amarr takes such things seriously.

I've generally considered parties where I somehow end up losing my clothes to be good ones...
