Calm down miner. As you pointed out, people think they can get away with stuff they would not in rl... Like for example illegal mining... - Ima Wreckyou*

23. Bombs delivered as well?

Making a disco proteus right now, do smartbombs count?

24. Thanks Jonah

25. mean words about my importance

:(

It's what I need right now, I've played with in-game responsibilities and without. for the next few months at least I'm better of without them

26. Maths

Maths is hard :(

27. Why did you choose ganking freighters and miners as a life to lead in the first place? More importantly, why CODE. and not somewhere else?

This actually goes back to how I joined the game. I joined after the bloodbath of B-R (yes, I'm a b-r baby) but soon fell in with a bad crowd, I was carebearing. I was on the verge of quitting after a couple of months when I saw somebody in a help channel complaining about somebody bumping them off a rock they were trying to mine because they hadn't purchased a permit. The whole thing was hilarious, the bumped miner was raging. From there I discovered minerbumping.com and resolved to give it a shot, rolled a gank alt that day, James 315 kept me in the game. It's true what they say, CODE. are good for retention, I'm an example of a player they saved.

28. Mary ann or ginger?

Mmmm, Mary ann by far.

29. Mean words about grapes and courage

The gankers are always outnumbered by invincible npcs that impose a strict time-limit. How much more pro can you be?

30. wise words about why we play

That's right Lan Wang, why, if I were focused on just the isk I'd be no better than the ones I shot.

31. kind parting words

You too Mara, I remember him :D

There once was a ganker named tisi

A stunningly beautiful missy

To gank a gross miner

There is nothing finer, cept when they get all pissy

I'm confused.

What's the difference between a RICO organization like CODE and a Stealth Bomber gank organization like Wingspan? Aren't both gankers? Is it a subtle difference or some big one that I'm totally missing?

Beauty pagentry and modelling. Thanks for the compliment on my looks.

That's not a question, and you used happy times and miner in the same sentence, which is wrong.

Shame you left; my miners fly tanked Skiffs with Hammerhead 2's and the occasional Code freak was a welcome break in the grind.

Do you ever see a time where you will have direction, or is following always going to be the way forward?

Have you really left the Code behind?
Would you consider trying to lead other people away from the cult of James 315?
Do you regret having caused so much anguish as an agent of the New Order?

If EVE is a PvP game, then Anti-Ganking is emergent gameplay.
