Crime & Punishment

With the orphange dead, who does all the high sec merc work? other than moar tears that is.

+1

Do you need a ricola?

Confirming Noir. is dead and irrelevant as well. Although, Noir. does more than just highsec.

Yours is kind of irrelevant.

Didn't want that Tech moon anyway





Thought you guys we're winning at EvE, most of these publords can't afford you guys anyway. Unfortunately you have lost your niche as the premiere Null Sec Mercs a while ago (WERPA) and now 0ccupational Hazzard (even if they are terrible).

Edit- besides arn't you busy getting steamrolled by FW




Rebirth. is terrible; even though I have friends in that group- seriously terrible. I like how MrRoGeRZ failed to point my smartbombing geddon in Dixie, not once, twice, or thrice, but 4 times. I'm even -8.1 and ****, so anyone can shoot me, which makes it even worse.





No there are plenty of idiots in highsec pretending to be Mercs. Dec'ing a bunch of people or doing the 0rphanage style 'large alliances' isn't merc work, its griefing. You have no interest in fights, ~gudfites~, or anything even remotely resembling a fight; you're interested cheap ganks to keep your minions busy while you actually ignore a 'contract' you currently have (because hunting down 14 man corps are fun and all).

Since when is TEST a NPC corp?

So then don't readily identify yourself as one complaining about stuff



When have I implied or even said that I have some over-inflated sense of self-importance? Are you conflating my asking of a simple question 2 posts up with something else entirely?



Tell me, what exactly awaits me in this nullsec place? What's in it for me? In all seriousness, I'm genuinely curious.

I wasn't complaining about anything, just pointing out the flaws in your standard 'ideaology' of what you think you or your organization is actually doing or how they operate (by philosphy). I simply stated that by war dec'ing large Sov Holding 0.0 entities you are not looking for a fight, you're out for ganks; besides lets pretend for a second a gate camp in highsec is going to stop our neutral npc corp alts for doing what we need them to (or more likely red/black frog).

Most of us cannot even enter your little haven anyway due to sec status restrictions/gate guns/CONCORD and even if we did, the likelihood of you actually showing up/staying on grid to fight is slim to none. I remember Empire Dec's and doing exactly what you're doing today, Hell I specifically remember talking to YOU about joining Ad0pt back when they were actually good at something before ego's and drama ripped it apart.

Stop trying to glorify high sec mercenary work as being mercs at all, you're clearly not. Just like Ad0pt never really was, they took contracts sure- but 80% of their war funds came from corp taxes and in-alliance player donations. Even though, technically this isn't your fault since CCP ****** up war mechanics and were certainly not going to fold a sov holding alliance because 60 guys in Empire might blow up our jump freighters. The ticks of the technetium clock replace all the damage you can muster in mere hours.

What will you find in 0.0 you ask, you already know, the fight you can't win.

The fight you won't go to, because lolkillboardstats and ehonour.




Next?

Time dialation please...

"I move my own ****, don't rely on others, and never heard a peep in local when I'm slowly dying inside moving my JF around. "

You might, but for every 1 smart person in eve there are 200 dumb ones.

"] Its more bloodthirsty now with Tech money.. 2 reds in local lets go **** them, suddenly 200 people in your fleet. It gets ridiculous at times, no lie... "

i always hear of this but never see it...



I doubt he is butthurt, he just likes to prode at the 00 people as much as I do...

"Ask me about Double Tap/Rebirth. and smartbombing Dodixie. "

LOL, ask me about Double Tap or Rebirth... check ma killboard



Nothing would make me happier than laughing at the attempt of a 00 group to try to come shut us up and kill us. The simple fact is that high sec fighting is different then 00 fighting, 00 players just dont know what they are doing in high sec, its why when a fleet tries to kill us they die horribly even though they have 15 rr

(referring to the solar fleet / wing scimis and basi that were slaughtered becasue warping in at range was too difficult for them to figure out...)

the end result is each side (high sec, vs 00) talk about how the other side couldnt handle fighting the other side on their home turf. 00 wants /needs capitals and cynos. high sec needs station timers and nuet logi. its the way this arguement has always been going.





And Forever Will Be.

Speaking only for myself, here. I don't speak for anyone else when I say what I say, just to make sure that's clear.

I'm with you on this. I came to the realization many moons ago that spending a base 50m to dec a sov-holding alliance in order to camp a pipe to catch the odd t2-fit drake, cane or untanked hauler is a bit unchallenging after a short while, with underwhelming results (woo, 3 t2 HMLs dropped. Let me rush back home to add these to the stack of 250 already in my hangar!)

Come to think of it, I would posit that PvP life in 0.0 outside of the weekend 300-ship field trips^H^H^H^H^H^H^HCTAs is largely no different... camping a pipe with drag bubbles to catch to odd t2-fit drake, cane, or untanked hauler, where convenient color tags (or lack thereof) next to peoples' names in local point you the way to right or wrong, along with heads-up intel stretching 2 regions in either direction. Sounds glorious. Oh, we're talking about empire here? Apologies for the tangent.

So I, personally, don't do the empire wardec thing much anymore just to gank those ratting scrublords you referred to. If I do engage in one these days, it's generally for a very specific reason or finely-focussed goal of personal interest, which usually revolves around solving the problem related to the explosive growth of uninspected or unlicensed (and often poorly parked) capital ships which regularly ply the spaceways of New Eden (a primary cause of many otherwise avoidable deaths) and even then, wardecs aren't wholly a necessity.



Ah, see, here's where I think your vitriol is a bit misdirected - you've confused me with someone else... I've never been a member of or associated with ad0pt, (yes, I am posting with my main. Who wouldn't?) and I certainly don't recall conversing with you, although I'm sure it would have been a pleasant one.

Heh, I remember once considering joining them as well, but when I popped into PitBoss's Office asked "Do you guys take small fleets out and, you know, hunt?" I only heard the chirping of crickets against the background hum of sensor boosters, occasionally punctuated by the sound of a pod undocking from Jita 4-4.



Small nit: Actually it's just 3 of us.
