Ms. Osyn; that's the thing that strikes me about these. Having put up a few towers, myself, I know it's not too difficult to set up a defense that will deter casual interference. In this case, only a single ECM array had been set online. The lone hardener, the other ECM array-- offline.

It's laughable.


Molok the Deceiver keeps confounding my starbase setups. Even the greatest prophets of God (such as myself) have some flaw, some foil, something that prevents them from achieving too much perfection. It is God's way of keeping even his most Chosen of servants from becoming too proud.


Have you considered...defense weapons?

I am very sure the Red God does not appreciate being treated as a sword or a shield. Or a giant gun.


Do consider, however, that my Temples and De-Minmatarization Tower had need for a number of converted hangers to serve as ritual places, torture chambers, slaver hound kennels, surgery rooms, and so on. Standard tower fits do not necessarily have a need for as much storage as I do.

For the record he had two Online White Noise jammers. Due to how few ships we had, even one getting jammed out would be a significant hindrance. So we took the one on the North end out. By the time it was incapacitated, we realized the South one never targeted us, so we left it alone. That's why there was only one functional one when PIE et al showed up.

Yeah, I saw those, though last I recall there were two of those, one of which was outside the shields.

I might have misremembered things.

I take back what I said about this being a ruse to escalate conflict, apparently naups just sucks that much. I was wrong for overestimating his ability, and I'm sorry for that.

Never attribute to malice what can be attributed to stupidity.

Because you are unable to realize that this was written in a general sense to emphasize the normality of actions like this in this universe?

I would think "them" would be more applicable in such a context, ma'am.

But I was only pointing it out to you. I'll remove my post if you're embarassed, or think I'm being a pedant.

Wait wait wait, you ask for martial forces from people all over the New Eden, several of which are actively at war with you and not merely -5, then when a -5 (that is quite demonstrably going up against an enemy, no threat and nominally a damn closer ally to an ostensibly Caldari outfit) shows up you shoot it.

I'd make some sort of snark here but frankly you're just fulfilling everyone's expectations here and proving everyone right in not trusting anything coming from that direction.


There's quite a lot of assumptions in your post, about great many things you know very little about. A lesson in reading comprehension would have not been a bad idea when you were still in shackles. Run along now before you make more of a fool out of yourself, slave girl.

One day we aspire to be as edgy as Naup. Until then we just flail torps in his general direction.

Why, you'll look like an accurate little girl and I look like someone who may have made a typo. You need all the help you can get, so leave it be.

Maybe, but when it comes to curves I prefer a straight derivative.

Just a tip for all you people who don't like PY-RE, instead of correcting their grammar and getting in your pathetic little jibes, you could try shooting them in space.

Just tell them to ingest your **** and shoot them down. I bet not one of you bumblefuck idiots could manage that.

Sorry, I feel passionate about this for some reason.
