We can't forget the AT... LOL


CCP banning mining barges and exhumers from parts of EVE - even if only the AT - is an important step towards achieving our long term goals.
I have a serious problem.

I woke up like 15min ago.


I have no coffee.

Lucas, i'm trying to be nice but bro - you really really need to start using zkill before you make more assumptions.

I target procs all the time, killed plenty of them too. In fact, lately - they are one of my primary targets.
So I can see! In the past month, you've killed 2 whole procurers, you beast you.

if I'm in the middle of a private convoy or happen to miss your comment in local? Ganked.

If you think I'm mining to much? Ganked.

If you don't like the colour of my ship? Ganked.

That permit is dependent wholly upon how much I trust you to keep your word and I don't trust you to do that at all. Gank all you want, I don't care. I find it more amusing then anything that you think you're the new "law of highsec".


I think you have just shown us the proper level of respect.

Well, I was taught to be nice to the special needs kids. You rascal glue eaters get the best of me every time.


Really though. If you're reading any respect in my posts, you need your eyes checked.

A little trust goes a long way. The less you use, the further you'll go.

And an Orca.
And a Mack or two.
And a Hulk.

That's what we killed when I was flying with him.

Which I wasn't looking at. Try reading the thread. He claimed to be primarily targeting procurers, yet out of the 50 or so T12 barges in the last month, 2 were procurers, with the vast vast majority being retrievers.

So if you have no idea, it's your issue. Educate yourself.

I can vouch for DJentropy targeting procurers 'all the time' however his success rate is less the 0.01%.
I try to tell him but he keeps goings on about on the code will prevail?

I always keep my word. I also almost never lie. Almost.

As for the AT, I do believe that the opposing team did in fact ban both catalysts and talos'. Beyond that, most of us in Code who wanted to participate, were either not actually in the Code. alliance, or had not been in it long enough to qualify. I was unable to participate for that reason. I suspect many others were in the same situation. Beyond that, I'm not sure why Code. didn't show up. I wasn't online at all that weekend and didn't hear anything until after the fact.
Would we have won the alliance tournament? I doubt it. Would we have fought hard and made our opponents work for a victory? You bet.

So if no procurers or skiffs are around he should just dock up instead of killing the retrievers clogging the belts? I think not. Those may be primary targets, but if targets of opportunity come along, they will not be ignored.

also Code. does not abandon it's other commitments in order to practice for the AT. *cough* *PL* *cough* (Don't get me wrong, I love PL, but really? Just tell the truth and say "we don't care if you keep your space or not, l8rz) Our agents are, as always, primarily concerned with enforcing the tenets of the Code than with practicing for the tournament.

If I have enough of my guys around when we're doing a gank, we'll target a skiff or an orca yes. If we have fewer people, we'll go after macks, retrievers, whatever is around. Getting enough people for a skiff or orca isn't easy, hence why there are not that many going doing. But yes, I'd prefer to kill an illegal skiff than an illegal Mack. Though Hulks always win out, because no ship is as bot-aspirant in my opinion.

ya know, there are mining barge fits that even the CODE haven't been able to kill

maybe it's time to think about Game Mechanics?

Lol.
No skiff/prcos in highsec. You do make me chuckle.

The point still stands. If people fly a proc they have basically nothing to worry about from code. If you are tanked up there will always be some excuse for not killing you. Permits are irrelevant since they are only valid if you wouldn't be a target anyway.

There is no ungankable fit. Only fits which cost more to gank than the ships itself. In theory they could gank anything, but they wouldn't because they only go after soft targets.

You have to wonder if code are really just a group set up by mass mining botters to cull the competition from actively playing miners, since they target people who actively mine and avoid targeting people who mine in large groups. Amusingly the peons at the bottom of the chain would never know that's what they supported.

Permits are a total scam.
