Hands Off, My Loots!

Before I get into it, I’ve been on a pretty dry streak blogging wise lately. But…events that occurred last night seem to have finally gotten my motivation back up…and the ideas are turning for what I want to do with the blog since I am no longer a Ninja (more about that in the next post).

I was going to make my return post talk about what’s going on with me, what I’m doing in EVE now, etc…but…this post trumps that…by about 15 Billion ISK.

———-

Me, and about 25 or so other members of Clockwork Pineapple were running around in a shield fleet through Syndicate, looking for some shit to kill. Since dual boxing a shield harbinger (they rock) and a scimitar wasn’t enough fun, I decided I’d hit up the recruitment channel to try my hand at these recruitment scams I’ve heard so much about.

I had to throw back a few of the fish that either didn’t bite, or were rather puny…but eventually…after only about an hour of searching, I seemed to have found a nice mark…what you find below, is the story of a very Generous Idiot.

Note: After all this was said and done, I tried to convo him again, and he rejected my convo…as well as Velocity Prime’s trying to extract some Tears (I accidentally closed the wrong client and lost his convo). About 15 minutes later, he sent me a simple evemail saying “Perhaps you can take the 15 Bil as a payment to not let others know how stupid I just was?”. Since he didn’t provide Tears, and seemed very civil about the entire affair without threatening to decapitate me and feed my severed head to the Four Horses of the Apocalypse, I decided it was a fair request and have hence edited his name out of the below chat logs.

His post in the recruitment channel mentioned a 36mil SP character, can fly Rorqual, looking for null sec…sounded fine with me!  The only issue is the simple fact that Misfit Toys is no where near an industry corp, but I’ll take my chances and hope he’s and idiot…as you’ll read on…you’ll find out it was definitely good I did.

[ 2011.02.08 03:10:14 ] Cyberin > ah, we’ve def got that

[ 2011.02.08 03:11:18 ] GenerousIdiot > nice

Might as well get in some information to want to come on down.  I figured since he’s an indy pilot safety would be a main concern for him, so I just through some blurbs about that out.

[ 2011.02.08 03:11:27 ] Cyberin > we are mainly producers/traders…we try and keep the syndicate market stocked
[ 2011.02.08 03:11:36 ] Cyberin > more miners and a rorqual would be nice
[ 2011.02.08 03:12:04 ] GenerousIdiot > well I don’t have a rorqual yet but I have some stuff to sell that I could get one
[ 2011.02.08 03:12:19 ] Cyberin > well, we might be able to get you one once you are in corp for a while
[ 2011.02.08 03:12:36 ] GenerousIdiot > oh cool
[ 2011.02.08 03:12:43 ] Cyberin > after a few months

After I find out he doesn’t actually own a Rorqual, I figure the lure of possibly getting one for free could help set the hook even deeper…so that is what I do.

And in other thought…if you are looking for a corp to join…you should probably at least do a show info on the corp.  Here’s a screenshot of the Toys corp description…look at all that industry information!

[ 2011.02.08 03:12:51 ] GenerousIdiot > well what kind of requirements do you have
[ 2011.02.08 03:13:17 ] Cyberin > we actually don’t have many requirements. Ability to fly a mining barge, and possibly manufacture
[ 2011.02.08 03:13:29 ] Cyberin > willingness to form up defense fleets if we have enemies come rolling through
[ 2011.02.08 03:13:45 ] GenerousIdiot > cool

In case you don’t know.  The key purpose of a recruitment scam, is to get the mark to pay you a “security deposit”.  In order to do this, you can either randomly throw out a number, or you can glean information from them in order to find out how much ISK they might be able/willing to pay.  In my case, I decided to go the information route and simply asked for a limited API key.  I could have also asked for a full key, but I didn’t want to spook him (as if he’d be smart enough to get spooked anyway).

[ 2011.02.08 03:15:14 ] Cyberin > one second, i’ll give you a link you can put your api into, it won’t show me you api info at all, just the information it provides, so pretty secure
[ 2011.02.08 03:15:36 ] Cyberin > we also have multiple JF pilots to move stuff for people
[ 2011.02.08 03:16:25 ] Cyberin > http://zzj.itf-inc.com/eveapi/audit.php you can put your info in there, and then I’ll be able to view the info

[ 2011.02.08 03:19:46 ] Cyberin > ok, one sec while i check on it
[ 2011.02.08 03:20:43 ] GenerousIdiot > brb

A quick review of the API showed he has just over 800 Million in liquid ISK, so I’m happy now and thinking of a possible 150mil ISK payout from this scam if it works.  Boy, was I wrong!

[ 2011.02.08 03:22:24 ] Cyberin > wow, very nice industry skills
[ 2011.02.08 03:22:38 ] Cyberin > i’d offer to jump your stuff down for you but you can already fly a JF
[ 2011.02.08 03:24:17 ] GenerousIdiot > back
[ 2011.02.08 03:24:36 ] Cyberin > k, did you get my last message?

Another part of these scams is of course trying to get the mark to give you their stuff (I can haz stufs?).  This guy can fly a lot of big stuff, and since I already know he doesn’t have a Rorqual I figured I’d see if he might have a Jump Freighter since I see he can fly one.  He never answers me…but I end up finding out a bit later that he does.

I assume though, that since he can fly one he’ll have one and will want to move his own stuff…bummer .

[ 2011.02.08 03:24:37 ] GenerousIdiot > well, i’ll be out of town snowboarding for the next few days
[ 2011.02.08 03:24:46 ] GenerousIdiot > So it would be a while before I could bring my stuff down
[ 2011.02.08 03:24:51 ] Cyberin > oh, where you going?
[ 2011.02.08 03:25:07 ] GenerousIdiot > Big Bear Mountain in So-Cal
[ 2011.02.08 03:25:14 ] GenerousIdiot > hopefully won’t kill myself
[ 2011.02.08 03:25:37 ] Cyberin > ah, never been snowboarding
[ 2011.02.08 03:25:56 ] Cyberin > but anyway, we’ve got a few JF pilots and could move your stuff for you if you decide to join while you are gone, that way it will be waiting for you

Um…ok…always bet on stupid right?  I will most DEFINITELY help you move your shit while you are on vacation!  Though, at this point…I’m still not expecting to get his stuff since he can fly a Jump Freighter himself…I start thinking about maybe offering him a Cyno out to our home and killing him when he gets there…hoping some good stuff drops.

[ 2011.02.08 03:26:36 ] GenerousIdiot > well, its a pretty substantial amount of stuff
[ 2011.02.08 03:26:41 ] GenerousIdiot > Would I need to cover fuel or anything
[ 2011.02.08 03:27:23 ] Cyberin > nah, we cover fuel, but we do have a security fee we charge, that is reimbursed after 30 days
[ 2011.02.08 03:27:31 ] Cyberin > to make sure you don’t steal out of the corp coffers, etc
[ 2011.02.08 03:28:02 ] Cyberin > it’s based on SPs and experience, for someone of your skill points, it’s normally 1bil…but i notice on your API you only have 800mil or so
[ 2011.02.08 03:28:20 ] Cyberin > we might be able to work out a deal on that since you’d be trusting us with moving your assets while you are gone
[ 2011.02.08 03:28:29 ] GenerousIdiot > ah ok

Ok…normal train of thought for a sane individual: “I can haul my own stuff, but I’ll be a while.  What? You can haul for me? I bet you can…tell me more, how do I know you won’t haz my stufs?”

This dudes train of thought: “I’m leaving for a bit and am impatient.  What? You can haul for me?  Sweet….do I have to pay you to steal my shit?”

Really…dude is not all there up stairs.  As in…he must have tripped at the top, fallen down 40 flights of stairs and shattered every light in the noggin.

You will also notice this is where I try to lure him in on the security deposit.  I figure since he’s got 800mil, I’ll say the normal fee is 1 Bil, and then offer him 150mil a little later to make it seem like an awesome deal.

[ 2011.02.08 03:28:42 ] GenerousIdiot > is there a limit of how much I can use
[ 2011.02.08 03:28:50 ] GenerousIdiot > I have a giant pile of stuff for my other characters
[ 2011.02.08 03:29:30 ] Cyberin > nope, no limit at all, all our JF pilots are bored alts
[ 2011.02.08 03:29:43 ] Cyberin > how much is giant? a couple freighter loads?

O RLY?

[ 2011.02.08 03:30:20 ] GenerousIdiot > maybe one
[ 2011.02.08 03:30:24 ] GenerousIdiot > maybe
[ 2011.02.08 03:30:32 ] Cyberin > oh, yeah, that’s not bad at all
[ 2011.02.08 03:30:41 ] Cyberin > doesn’t even cost a few mil to do one jump

Truthfully, when he only said one, I got a little disheartened…he’s so dumb, I figure his “huge” pile of stuff wasn’t that big at all…I admit…that was my mistake, I forgot to bet on stupid.

[ 2011.02.08 03:32:28 ] Cyberin > all of that sound good? we could really use a pilot with your skill point level and those ships
[ 2011.02.08 03:32:37 ] Cyberin > and there’s always the possibilty of flying a corp rorqual
[ 2011.02.08 03:32:39 ] GenerousIdiot > Yeah I can give it a shot
[ 2011.02.08 03:32:53 ] GenerousIdiot > can I apply tonight so i’m ready to go when I get back

At this point, our gang (remember, I’m dual boxing at the moment) is chilling on a gate waiting for some idiots to kill, and I’m getting tired and know I need to go to be in an hour or so, so I figure it’s time to try and close the deal.  I didn’t think it would be quite as simple and fast as it actually turns out to be though.

[ 2011.02.08 03:33:08 ] Cyberin > certainly you can
[ 2011.02.08 03:33:21 ] Cyberin > just right click on my name and apply o the corp
[ 2011.02.08 03:33:37 ] GenerousIdiot > ok

This is where I mention in Teamspeak to my CEO Velocity Prime to not accept the app that just went in (I normally put stupid shit in apps for my alts to join, an didn’t want VP to think this was an alt app of mine or something if he mentioned my name).

[ 2011.02.08 03:33:49 ] GenerousIdiot > who do I need to contract stuff to that i’m moving out?
[ 2011.02.08 03:33:55 ] Cyberin > so are you bringing any indy stuff down, or just stuff for alts?
[ 2011.02.08 03:34:05 ] Cyberin > oh, you can contract it to me if you’d like, i’ll move it to my alts
[ 2011.02.08 03:34:34 ] GenerousIdiot > ok
[ 2011.02.08 03:34:37 ] GenerousIdiot > give me a few minutes
[ 2011.02.08 03:34:42 ] Cyberin > certainly

I was typing that second statement while he was typing the first…I was expecting to have to goad him a bit more, but apparently he’s just that dumb…and I’m the mos trustworthy person in EVE.  At this point, I’m truthfully wondering if he’s just trying to troll me…no one can be this idiotic right?

[ 2011.02.08 03:35:57 ] Cyberin > oh, almost forgot…the security deposit
[ 2011.02.08 03:36:03 ] GenerousIdiot > oh right
[ 2011.02.08 03:36:03 ] GenerousIdiot > hang on
[ 2011.02.08 03:36:10 ] GenerousIdiot > 750m ok?

But just in case…gotta get the most out of it right?  He immediately offers 750 Million before I can tell him the CEO said 150 Mil would be fine.  Sure…that sounds good to me.

[ 2011.02.08 03:36:17 ] GenerousIdiot > To be returned after 30 days?
[ 2011.02.08 03:36:23 ] Cyberin > well, normallly 1bil, but 750 will work
[ 2011.02.08 03:36:27 ] GenerousIdiot > ok
[ 2011.02.08 03:36:29 ] Cyberin > talked with ceo about it and he said that’s fine
[ 2011.02.08 03:36:47 ] GenerousIdiot > Done

Yes…that simple…no questions about safety.  No security concerns.   No asking how he’d be safe from a scam.  No nothing.

[ 2011.02.08 03:37:28 ] GenerousIdiot > what station should I set the contract to
[ 2011.02.08 03:37:56 ] Cyberin > aas station V
[ 2011.02.08 03:38:18 ] Cyberin > is there gonna be collateral?
[ 2011.02.08 03:39:09 ] GenerousIdiot > no
[ 2011.02.08 03:39:14 ] Cyberin > even better

I got a little cocky here, glad he didn’t understand the reason I said “even better”.  And yes, you are reading this correctly…less than 1 minute after he sent me 750 Million ISK he was asking where to contract me his stufs to.  I had to ask about the collateral, because even though it might have scared him off (though…i was seriously doubting it now with the blind sending of that much ISK), I needed to make sure he sent it to me free of charge.

[ 2011.02.08 03:41:44 ] GenerousIdiot > ok stuff to be shipped is up
[ 2011.02.08 03:41:44 ] Cyberin > oh wow, anshar, that’s gonna be hard to move

I swear I didn’t shit my pants…almost maybe…but I totally did NOT shit my pants.  I may however have squealed like a little school girl in Teamspeak about my new found fortune…sorry if I interrupted the op a bit pBump.  The first contract has the Anshar, a Redeemer, and some other stuff in it.  And a second contract, to be couriered to our home station, was 927,000m3 (which by the way, can’t be carrier by anything other than a max level Charon pilot…which he should have known and thought about being a Jump Freighter pilot…he wins again I guess).  In my excitement…I can’t see what’s in the courier package…either because you have to be in the station with it, or I just couldn’t find where to view it in the contracts panel…but this is where I made my first mistake.

I mentioned the Anshar.

[ 2011.02.08 03:41:47 ] GenerousIdiot > and I applied to the corp
[ 2011.02.08 03:41:59 ] GenerousIdiot > oh I did that on accident, gonna use that to move the rest of my stuff when I get back
[ 2011.02.08 03:42:02 ] GenerousIdiot > you can contract that back to me, don’t need to ship it
[ 2011.02.08 03:42:07 ] Cyberin > ah, one sec

As you can tell, he didn’t mean to give me the Anshar (and I’m assuming some other stuff…like the hundreds of millions in moon goo).  At this point, I immediately accept and fail the second contract (not sure why I hadn’t done it yet) to insure he didn’t decide to cancel it.  In retrospect, after looking at the stuff in that package, it seems only the fittings for the battleships and a few frigates were in that package…which makes me wonder if he was going to put up another contract with the cruiser fittings in it (which seems like it would have been quite a bit).  But I decided to cut my winnings and play it safe once he mentioned wanting the Anshar back.

[ 2011.02.08 03:49:21 ] GenerousIdiot > ?
[ 2011.02.08 03:50:38 ] Cyberin > oh, yeah…abot that
[ 2011.02.08 03:50:46 ] Cyberin > ceo said app rejected, and thanks for the fish

It took me exactly 41 minutes and 52 seconds to scam this guy out of 14.9 Billion ISK.  I’d say that’s a damn fine stroke of beginners luck. (I’ve scammed in other ways before, never recruitment scamming though).

———-

P.S.

To GenerousIdiot,

I’m glad you’ve never read my blog and didn’t know who I was…VERY glad.  I hope you enjoy your trips to the snow covered mountains, please watch out for trees, I hear they sting if you hit them.  I will be here keeping your assets safe.

I’m gonna try something new.  I’m actually going to start posting more!  Like…hopefully every time I get some tears, I’m going to log off, and post about it.  It probably won’t happen like that…but I’m tired of going through days and days worth of chat logs to refresh my memory of stuff.

First off for today, this is not entertaining in the least, but as I was salvaging the other day, I warp in to a Raven’s Mission…and what do I see?  He’s tractoring a can of loot behind him.  He’s looted the entire mission for me already…YOINK!…then I warp in the Orca, pick up the loot…and he never shoots, but hey…that can had about 15mil ISK worth of loot in it so I was happy.  Glad he got his hands off my loot! (see what I did there?)

Oh, and while I was going through the logs, I noticed this (which I didn’t see in local at the time…I was just traveling through some belts while can flipping)

George Nutz > Sup Cyberin

Not sure if this was a fan giving me a shout out, or if it was someone I was bumping in a belt…I really don’t remember.  So if it’s a fan….HAI!!!!

Mr. Deeds:

This guy was in a Drake, and he has a really interesting way with words.  This has nothing at all to do with the title of this thread (that’s the next chat log).  But I thought this conversation warranted conversation.  Please comment with whether you think he meant option A or option B…I’m going to forward him the results of this little comment poll via evemail.

[ 2010.07.14 16:45:46 ] Starcatcher Deeds > Go kill your own ass hole
[ 2010.07.14 16:45:51 ] Cyberin > no thanks

Then…he closed convo…leaving me very confused!  I actually had to ponder for a bit, scratch my head and say “WTF?” a few times…then, it just got the better of me so I convoed him again.

[ 2010.07.14 17:13:48 ] Cyberin > o/ again

[ 2010.07.14 17:14:47 ] Starcatcher Deeds > you suck them

Crap…copy/paste fail.  Suddenly Ninjas have a habit of posting tears in corp chat for others to revel over…Mr. Deeds provided that gem for me in local after our initial chat, so I had to share (I had already shared the killing of my own fecal matter ejection system with them…).  I forgot I didn’t have his first statement still on the clipboard…so it was a little embarrassing…easy enough to fix though!

[ 2010.07.14 17:15:09 ] Cyberin > [16:45:46] Starcatcher Deeds > Go kill your own ass hole

[ 2010.07.14 17:16:11 ] Starcatcher Deeds > bye
[ 2010.07.14 17:16:14 ] Cyberin > o/

Sadly, I still didn’t get an answer.  Usually, I’d take this up with his CEO and see if he knew…but alas, Mr. Deeds is his own CEO.

So, what do you think? (comments please)

Option A: Go kill your own asshole! (as in, killing my personal rectal cavity…)
Option B: Go kill you own! Asshole! (as in, go kill my fellow ninjas…and that I am a jerk…)
Option C: Neither…this dude is just a total fuckwad!

———-

Now, to the good stuff you have all been waiting for…BECAUSE OF FALCON!!!

Arden, over at Ninja Hi-Jinx found himself an Abaddon with an Itchy trigger finger…and I was in system so I thought I’d go watch the fight, and take some loot while I was at it.  Now, this Abaddon had some kind of hellish tank on it…Arden thought he might be very blingy…so I was getting ready to go grab a scan ship when the Abaddon shot at me too! (I had looted something, didn’t actually expect him to shoot at me though…what an idiot).  So, scan ship idea was put on hold as I warped to the Orca and grabbed my Gank Cane, Banana Smoothie.

I get back, and go to town on this Abaddon (I forgot the dudes name…he never said a word in local so I can’t really find out what it was).  Minutes go by (long minutes…this dude has one hell of a tank, me in my cane, and Arden in his Sleip are having trouble cracking him).  We are getting close…and…my client crashes! SHIT!!! Log back in!  But what is this?  It didn’t just crash…it FROZE…so I had to ctrl+alt+delete to get it closed out so I could reopen it.  Once I log back in, I reacquire lock and we start working on him again.

About a minute later…a neutral Falcon warps in.  Except, it’s not really neutral…it’s one of his corp mates…that doesn’t have aggro on either me or Arden.  Wanna guess what happens next?  You are correct…CONCORDOKKEN!!!!

This is the conversation that followed with the Falcon pilot.

[ 2010.07.16 14:37:48 ] Cyberin > that was a horrible time for me to DC

No lie…it really was!  The Abaddon was in structure when the Falcon jammed me and Arden…if I hadn’t DCed…he’d have died.

[ 2010.07.16 14:39:08 ] Cyberin > yeah, we were wondering when we saw a falcon warp in

This guy seems ok, but…in all reality?  Pretty idiotic move to suicide a Falcon…when there is this popup that says “Are you sure you want to do this?  If you do…Concord will rape you in the ass with no protection”…

Didn’t get a popup?  Well…then you disabled it…which is an even more idiotic move…turn it back on, k?

[ 2010.07.16 14:39:26 ] Ultramrine > either way we saved money.

[ 2010.07.16 14:39:59 ] Cyberin > yeah, it’s a good tactic…people don’t normally do it with falcons though
[ 2010.07.16 14:40:13 ] Ultramrine > i wasn’t intending to do it either but meh.

This part is why I think he’s lying a little later on…they ‘saved money’…Falcon’s aren’t cheap…

[ 2010.07.16 14:51:13 ] Ultramrine > haha nice. Good hunting.

The fit he linked was just a standard mission Abaddon fit, no shinies or anything…just T2 stuff.  Although this character was 4 years old, I still find it hard to believe he tanked a Gank Cane and a Sleipnir for as long as he did (not sure how long…but it was a LONG time).  But, I can’t really say either way…it could happen if his tanking skills were awesome I guess…but, meh…all that matters in the end was I didn’t get my kill…BECAUSE OF FALCON!

Still no kills since I’ve been back (actually, that’s a lie…just got one today, but that’s for another post )

Wow…just wow. What you are about to read is probably the best I’ve ever done with a single target. While there are a bit of tears, it is mostly filled with stupid losses, more ISK than brains, and in the end…the transformation of a stubborn miner (or…0.0 alt…whichever way you want to believe) into a pacified customer looking for a few new ships.

You met him in my last post, but here and now, you are going to hear the wonderful story of Kiernance…mighty pvp miner!

After I killed piro95’s vexor like you learned earlier, I saw this in local…which of course got the ball rolling on this whole event.

Really? Sweet. At this point, I’m thinking he want’s to gank me because I stole his ore earlier. In a little while, I actually find out that he’s just bored and wants to throw away some ISK.

Mr. PvP Miner is going to agro me, a rather notorious Ninja…in a 550 Million ISK ship (750mil with the fit actually). Anyone that knows anything knows that it’s not smart to shoot ninjas. Specially since as you see later, he says he’s a null sec guy and this is just an alt…he should know better…but he doesn’t.

This next part is out of order now because of that fleet chat, but pretend you didn’t read that, and this happens before we blow him up, but after we get him, and hold him, in structure. I’d also like to point out, that after you see the fit…you might wonder why he kept all his high slots trained on me…the noob in the rifter, rather than the two other people. He could have capped them out and escaped…but didn’t. Reason…he’s…not…an…alt.

[ 2010.03.13 05:26:03 ] Cyberin > how’s 400 mil sound?

Just to point out…this guy was flashy red to me and my corp, sitting in a belt, not aligned, not moving, with no drones out, didn’t have me locked…for 6 minutes. 6 minutes to warp out because I didn’t have him pointed. 6 minutes to warp out because he realized I was stalling because he’s an experienced null sec guy that should know this. 6 minutes to warp out because he realized he’s being a fucking idiot. 6 minutes to sit there, and lose a 750 Million ISK ship for no reason…sadly, I was too busy during the fight to grab a screenshot.

I waited for both my corp mates to get outside the system, and he still wasn’t aligned. I told them to jump in and align to belt, he still didn’t align. I told them to warp to me, and did not turn on my Warp Scrambler until they LANDED IN THE BELT WITH ME. So much for checking your directional scanner. These are more reasons I think this guy is not an alt…I think they are good reasons.

[ 2010.03.13 05:38:46 ] Cyberin > i’ll try to not buy too many

You pirates will cringe. But, well…I’m not a pirate…and dishonoring ransoms doesn’t hurt me in anyway because the people I prey on are too idiotic to think about it, and because I don’t care that much about the ISK anyway. We discussed it in fleet chat, and decided we would like to have the killmail, and to teach him a little bit of a harder lesson. So we blew the shit out of him…he melted like butter. We even let another corpy that was close by get in system to get on the killmail, though he didn’t get a share of the loot since he didn’t really help…us ninjas are greedy like that! (actually, I offered, but he told us to keep it).

I can’t really respond to that…that’s about as good as it gets. Or is it?

Herr Wilkus is known for 2 things mostly within our alliance. He runs our investment program, and he kills Hulks…lots of them…

He answer my evemail, and was excited to help me out. So, while the chat logs are rather dry…and there are actually no real tears from Kiernance about the whole issue…it was a fun, and eventful morning/afternoon for me.

I wasn’t content with just taking his Domi, and his 400mil ISK. I wanted his hulk. After about an hour or so of planning, scouting, and moving his ship into position with my help, Herr Wilkus destroyed Kiernance’s hulk with 1 volley, in an Ice Belt in a 0.7sec system, with dozens of mackinaws watching.

After Wilkus popped him, he sent the standard EVEMAIL he sends to all his victims.

Oh, and for anyone wondering how my rampage through the Caretyn system worked for the locals.  When I left for work that day…there were no cans in the belts, and no less than 7 people in iterons mining directly into their holds. 2 of them were from piro95’s corp.

Ok, this was a hard decision to split this post and the next one up into two. Because although it all happened within 24 hours or so, the exchanges I had between the 3 people (2 are related, the other is a separate person all together) took place in a weird fashion that ended up making some of one persons story happen in the middle of the other ones time wise, and it would have just been extremely confusing to explain it all in one post, not to mention the length that post would have been. So, this post will be about the first 2 individuals (mostly concentrating on 1 of them…the 2nd guy was just involved because he was a corp mate of the idiot), and the 3rd, not related person…will be in the next post.

If you want the short version, ignore the chat logs, and read only my comments…that should work as a short version, though…the chat logs are rather humorous.

———-

It started out like a lot of the other things I’ve talked about recently…a long time ago…in a universe far far away…I was can-flipping.

I happened upon 3 people in the same corp, all in retrievers (I think, it’s a little hazy). With 2 cans of ore just sitting by them. So, I flipped the cans, and warped in the Orca.

I had so much going on with new applicatants to Suddenly Ninjas, chatting in corp, fapping, etc that I’m not 100% sure how it all started, but I think it was something like me going in and out of the belt, multiple times, stealing their ore over and over and over…In the end I had over 80,000m3 of their ore. One time, they tried to be smart and grab the ore out of my can before I could load it in the orca. I wasn’t expecting it, and since they had prealigned…warped to station before I could lock them. They then spent the next 15 minutes docked sadly….and we repeated the process, except I locked them every time I saw them now and they lost their nerve.

[ 2010.03.13 03:23:38 ] Kiernance > yea run away bitch
[ 2010.03.13 03:23:55 ] Cyberin > no reason to stay if you won’t shoot

This guy…is the 3rd guy I will talk about in my next post, this happened in the same local chat though, so I thought I’d give you an early introduction to him. I met him while I was waiting for these other guys to mine more ore for me, he was in the belt closest to them. I grabbed his ore and then headed back to them to get theirs…he took that as me being a scared bitch…even though I sat next to him with his drones out for a few minutes and he did nothing. Later….in the next post…he will do MUCH more than nothing.

During the 23 minutes from the first log and the one above, I struck up a convo with piro95 (who is a world class idiot…really…just wonderful!). We had a long private convo about how I was a dirtbag and I got horny from taking peoples stuff and that I stole lollipops from babies in real life. Then, I finally convinced him to come fight me.

(note: from here on out, I had tons of convo’s with him and his corp mate in private chats, and local, off and on, over and over. For this reason, I’m just gonna put them all together in chronological order, and not really differentiate much between local and private chat, because it doesn’t really matter much)

This is really my first experience with piro95. As you can tell…he has a way with words. I’m trying to get him to fight me after I see he went and got a Vexor…I happened to warp to station as he was docking in it.

[ 2010.03.13 04:24:37 ] Cyberin > so you’ll fight?

So, now he has a battlecruiser. Even though I can tell he sucks, this worries me a bit…because, well…I’m less than a month old, and am in a rifter. Since he flies gallente…that tells me he’s probably in a Myrm…and that’s a lot of drones to kill on my own…so I throw out a request in corp chat…and no help comes.

[ 2010.03.13 04:24:53 ] Cyberin > anyone near Caretyn with RR, might be fighting this guy in his BC

Now we just go on some more about fighting each other. I’m still not sure if he’s going to, and where we’ll fight if he does…though I know I won’t be doing it at a station…that’s about the only thing that is for sure at the moment…so I don’t even know where to align my orca alt to in case I need a ship change.

[ 2010.03.13 04:27:35 ] piro95 > may you not comes with your friend

He knows the Orca is with me because I was using it to take their ore earlier. I was a little concerned he might not fight because of this (not to mention…it’s still sitting in the same belt, lol).

[ 2010.03.13 04:27:52 ] Cyberin > i won’t if you don’t bring yours

[ 2010.03.13 04:33:01 ] piro95 > check

At this point, he leaves local, so I assume he’s going to get his battlecruiser…so I wait by the gate to see what he comes back in, and played dumb in private convo wondering why he left system.

[ 2010.03.13 04:33:27 ] Cyberin > why did you leave?

[ 2010.03.13 04:40:28 ] piro95 > ok

This is where I get scared. He came back in his battlecruiser. It’s not the Myrmidon I was expecting…it’s even worse! Wait for it…wait for it…A VEXOR!!! So, I have to mention it in corp chat for lols…and again, don’t get much response…everyone must be watching American Idol or something…

[ 2010.03.13 04:40:57 ] Cyberin > lol, this guy is in his Vexor Battlecruiser…
[ 2010.03.13 04:41:16 ] JordanParey > just put him out of his misery
[ 2010.03.13 04:41:29 ] Cyberin > i’m trying…he’s taking forever to come fight

Now, back to waiting for him to fight, wonder what he’s doing, etc, etc, etc…

[ 2010.03.13 04:42:18 ] Cyberin > ok, you coming? i’ve got a can out, when you get here drop one for you and we’ll both loot so we both get aggro before we start…that way it’ll be fair
[ 2010.03.13 04:44:21 ] Cyberin > dude…come one…what’s taking so long?
[ 2010.03.13 04:45:18 ] piro95 > can i scanne your ship
[ 2010.03.13 04:45:20 ] piro95 > please
[ 2010.03.13 04:45:37 ] Cyberin > no…you have a bigger ship than me, why would you need to scan me?
[ 2010.03.13 04:45:43 ] Cyberin > just come on
[ 2010.03.13 04:50:11 ] Cyberin > you gonna do this or what?

During the waiting, I head back to the original belt, and what do I find? His corp mates have learned from their mistakes? They don’t want to lose more than the 80,000m3 of ore I’ve already taken from them?…no…another can, so I take that too. This of course, gives him agro on me, and I find out this is why he was stalling, he didn’t want to take from my can. He immediately warps in to the belt (with me right next to my orca, no aligning needed…yay!) Turns out I didn’t need to switch ships though..as he never once let loose one drone.

[ 2010.03.13 04:53:48 ] piro95 > fuck you
[ 2010.03.13 04:53:55 ] piro95 > you kill me
[ 2010.03.13 04:54:06 ] Kiernance > lmao

[ 2010.03.13 04:54:32 ] Kiernance > lol
[ 2010.03.13 04:54:55 ] Cyberin > lol, why eject?

He ejected before I killed him, but since I can’t fly it…I killed the vexor anyway. Then apparently someone in corp felt his death!

[ 2010.03.13 04:54:13 ] JordanParey > is e dead yet?
[ 2010.03.13 04:55:38 ] Cyberin > yeah, just killed him

I’m leaving out this chat log, but right here you can pretend like we talked in local about why he ejected. He didn’t want me to pod him, so me and local explained you can’t do that in hisec…blah blah blah. And while we talk about that, I think I’ll take some MORE of their ore. Do these guys ever learn?

[ 2010.03.13 04:57:53 ] piro95 > stop that please

Go fight with my brother…seriously? WTF is that?! I am glad he asked me so nicely to stop can-flipping him…I actually did stop. But only because they finally wised up and I didn’t see any more cans. Now, skip forward 9 hours (not sure if that was sleep or work…it was one of the two though). I log in, and he immediately convos me…

He goes from telling me not to can-flip, to telling me he’ll protect me if I do, to telling me he wants to kill me. Bi-Polar much?

[ 2010.03.13 15:14:21 ] Grelinor > I’m not sure he is

Ok, now, during this next log, I had 5 separate private convos with piro95 trying to get him to grow some balls. He kept saying he was going to fight, and stalling, and fighting, and stalling. I think he might have been playing with himself in preparation, I’m not really sure. All I know is he kept closing convo, which is why I kept opening new ones…and which lead to 5 convo’s…all of which included me questioning his manhood. I’m not posting those logs, because they are boring…and since he can’t talk well, are very hard to understand, and this paragraph sums it up nicely.

This is also where I am introduced to Grelinor. Piro’s corp mate who is running around in a Caracal pretending like I don’t know he’s there to try and help Piro gank me…and at the same time, try and reason with me to stop all the bloodshed and let the hamsters go free! If Ivanna was here, I’m sure he’d say cowbell was involved somehow.

[ 2010.03.13 15:15:19 ] Grelinor > but just to avoid any more bloodshed (or metalshed, anyways)… anyway you guys can work this out?
[ 2010.03.13 15:16:10 ] Cyberin > um, no, not really…i’m not in the business of working things out without bloodshed
[ 2010.03.13 15:17:37 ] Grelinor > it is too bad
[ 2010.03.13 15:18:33 ] Cyberin > not really
[ 2010.03.13 15:18:40 ] Cyberin > i quite enjoy it
[ 2010.03.13 15:18:46 ] Grelinor > you know I can’t let you kill a corpmate without acting, then you’ll bring friends, we’ll bring friends, it’s gonna end in a war which not one of us want
[ 2010.03.13 15:19:10 ] Cyberin > actually, you don’t want that…i personally would LOVE that
[ 2010.03.13 15:19:25 ] Cyberin > now tell your corpy to come to planet 7 so we can end this
[ 2010.03.13 15:20:06 ] Grelinor > i’ll let you invite him, I’m not in favour of that exchange
[ 2010.03.13 15:20:22 ] Cyberin > i have been
[ 2010.03.13 15:20:29 ] Cyberin > guess he’s scared
[ 2010.03.13 15:23:56 ] Cyberin > take from my can and drop your own piro, that way it’s fair and we both get aggro
[ 2010.03.13 15:25:20 ] Cyberin > you need to come take from my can too Piro…i’m not getting personal corp aggro with your friend here…unless you do too…
[ 2010.03.13 15:25:24 ] Cyberin > i’m not an idiot

Now, there is another 16 minutes of me talking to Piro in local about how we both need to flip each others can’s to get agro on each other to make it fair since he’s got a friend in system with him that can help kill me. The whole time I’m just stalling for a fellow ninja salvager from The Ninja Alliance channel to show up in his domi to remote rep me (yes, overkill is a good thing, lol). Thanks for the help Merktlhu!

Once he gets in system, I take from Piro’s can, and sure enough both him and Grelinor open up on me. Grelinor decides to be cocky as he gets me to half armor before my RR starts repping me back up after he lands from warp.

[ 2010.03.13 15:41:58 ] Grelinor > ok had enough?

There’s the cocky…

[ 2010.03.13 15:42:31 ] Cyberin > sure have…lol

There’s the return cocky after Merktlhu lands next to me…

[ 2010.03.13 15:44:43 ] Cyberin > what? tired of talking?
[ 2010.03.13 15:44:53 ] Cyberin > you didn’t think i’d actually let you win did oyu?

He stops shooting me, and shoots my mate in a Domi…which, wasn’t that smart…as I might not have been able to kill him on my own, but a Dominix certainly can.

After that, we had a long (really long) convo in local about fighting, them dishonoring a 1v1 (because it was originally supposed to be one…for Piro at least)…and a bunch of other stuff that doesn’t matter. And for those of you wondering about the 1v1 thing…no, I don’t really care about that…as personally I don’t honor them either unless I know you, but…I thought it was fun to pick on them about it and it got a rise out of them for a while.

[ 2010.03.13 16:28:56 ] Cyberin > you done mining today?

That is all…

Now…the next post concerning Kiernance will be out soon (2 hours after this one actually…gotta give it a little space ya know…).

I mentioned in my last post that I had put in an application with the Tuskers, well…after a bit of running around lowsec solo, destroying my sec status, other people…and getting destroyed myself a few times…they decided I would be a good fit for the corp…and so now I am officially a Tusker!

I’ve already been on a few Corp Roams, which have so far been a blast!  I actually got the killing blow on my first kill of my first roam with them…which isn’t that big of a deal really, but I thought it was neat.  I also got to join in on the Ransoming of a Megathron pilot who was in the wrong place at the wrong time.  It took a little while, but he eventually paid us 80 Mil to keep his ship, 16 Mil for each of us split 5 ways…so that was pretty decent for my first ever ransom payment.

It’s truthfully been a pretty busy week or so for me and so much has happened that I can’t remember it all exactly how it went down.  You can checkout my personal killboard (link at the top of the site) for the kills/losses I’ve had since I decided to go pirate.  Though one thing I’ve impressed myself with so far (again…not a huge deal, but I like stats and stuff) is I’ve gone from Rank 93,312 in Battleclinic, to Rank 24,456 in 4 days.  I know it’s no where near good…but…it’s a start.

I’ve been sticking with mainly Rifters, and plan on sticking with them for a while since my skills aren’t that good.  I have a few battlecruisers and battleships sitting in station…but I’ll only fly those when I know I have pretty much no chance of dieing…(like killing macros outside station).  My Rifters have the good aspect of being relatively cheap at about 10 Mil ISK fully fit (I am T2 fitting them mostly), as well as being a very popular PvP frigate for good reason.

———-

In other news…I decided to sell my alt.  I’ve been leaning towards only running one account for a while now…simply to provide more of a challenge to EVE…so with this new change to piracy I figured now would be as good a time as any.  Got a pretty good addition to my Wallet by selling him, so I’ll be able to keep myself in my cheap frigates (and a few fun toys if I want) for quite some time.  I figure next month I might worry about starting to work on actually making ISK…but for the time being…I just want to learn my pirating skills better.

Been an excellent change so far…stay tuned for more updates!

Oh, and I forgot to mention…it’s going to be fun flying with so many fellow bloggers!…there are at least 6 of us in the Tuskers…including Wensley, Ka Jolo, Kirith Darkblade (he just got accepted today!), Noir Avlaa, Bourreau…should be fun.  (if I forgot any fellow Tusker Bloggers…please comment so I can add you to my Tusker Blogroll when I put it up)
