You should come back. The more content, the better.


I would honestly welcome Marmite moving into wormhole space for a while. It would lead to some chaos.

I think we all would.

I would be curious to see just how many of their members would make the move.

Hypothetically, of course.

To be honest I'd welcome (And hell, even help) anyone moving in to WH space.

We need more wormholers, frankly its a pretty barren landscape these days.

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

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



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.


No one needs to "keep up" your alliance mate is just horrible at explaining anything in text form.


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.

Remember, the pointy end goes towards the enemy. Dont poke your eye out kid.


Sure man hide behind some childish insults I guess *shurgs*. Whatever floats your boat little buddy!

As my ongoing mission to enlighten the way to Wormhole Life, I thought I'd throw some tips out there for the novice.


If a signature splits in two when scanning, pick the furthest one from the scan centre, its the one you are looking for.

No where to run, connecting wormholes are the most dangerous place to fight but also the most exciting.

Docking games, WH equivalent is the fight on hi sec wormhole connections some of you hi sec guys may enjoy this due to it's similiarity with docking games. The bonus here is no station guns.

Covops there everywhere.

Holy reading comprehension issues, this thread should be eligible for one of those 'reasons to stay in school' ads.

Let's clear a few things up:

1) My only concern when I first posted this thread was that (I thought) Honorable Third Party were mercs that had broken contract. That's not cool. Turns out I was wrong, and that the guy that hired the mercs is actually hilariously incompetent. (Related note, nice job on the POS defense last night fellas.)

2) Whoever jacked up Maximo's face also did some brain damage, because I never claimed hisec mercs were weak, I simply said I look forward to generating content with them, and decided to aid them in finding us with a friendly contract of probes and a probe launcher. Unfortunately some of my alliancemates decided to... show their butts in the thread, but that's their problem, not mine. Also, the guy you replied to about carebear killing wasn't even in the alliance that linked the carebear kill, so again, see above re: brain damage.

3) I enjoy how hilariously weird this thread got, when the OP was just about some (what I thought was) dishonest mercs. Heck, we got Surely You're Joking showing up, Cannibal Kane, some dude named Jayne Filion (who are you?), and Narwhals.

4) Thanks for the tip about the kill-board link, very sweet of you.

5) @Honorable Third Party, if you guys ever feel like brawling, we could get some guys out your way with some notice. We tend to just do things down our chain, but can be coaxed to cross k-space if need be.

6) @Kagura Nikon, I'm not here to talk trash, because you're right, I would (and did!) make a miserable hisec merc. It's not my thing, I like WHs, I live in them full time, across many characters. If you decide to hunt us down in our WH, we will give you a fight without hesitation, but we are WHers, we don't leave unless we absolutely have to, because this is our favorite place to be.

No, because nobody in OI got scammed. We helped some dudes finish moving out, and they tried to hire you dudes as mercs. Cue, scam.

"Available for hire" with no specifications, no set actions we take etc. I am for hire too if people need something but does that make me a mercenary? Not really :)

Yes, it was a scam.
It was a scam as our wormhole corp isn't even a mercenary corp. The guys who lost their 1B ISK did so at their own mistake, by trusting people they didn't know and didn't check the background of. I was on teamspeak when the scam went down.

If you're hiring a mercenary you're ought to do some fieldwork before handing over the ISK and POS passwords. The guys who got scammed didn't. Welcome to EVE. It's hilarious how the OP is really grumpy that we took the money that they went to "siege a pos for", in 30 minutes time. Hell they had free POS passwords.

Moral of the story:

If you go full ****** and do not check the facts, you deserve to lose your money.

Know how I know you didn't read the entire thread? OP has since retracted the statements regarding THIRD.

Simpler version for ya: Group A gets our towers spiked in their wh by Group C. They contact Group B thinking they were Mercs and get scammed. Group C blows up Group A's tower and leaves. Group A then hires 3 actual merc corps to go after Group C. More details emerged and it turned out that Group B was actually Group D.

Due to the savages of war, we are unable to bring you the latest news.

Suspect we have pilots MIA or worse in capsules stuck in HS. War is hell and we've felt it. Massive losses taken, morale at all time low and no where to run.

Please can anyone help us?

More than willing to supply probes to the right corp. Assistance required, pods' down.


My god ships exploding everywhere, mayday mayday. Not sure how long we can go on for.


I guess this could be one scenario, but to be honest its not the case. Continuing my education theme, his a little tip.


Try dscan'ng on the solar system map. Amazing how quick you can find a ship or a POS. Combat probes are a last resort, don't jump into a new wormhole and drop probes until you've done your recon. Nothing like finding half a dozen ships 25 AU away running sites to find your probes have spooked them.
