Hands Off, My Loots!

Some people will love it, some people will be saddened by it…but I have decided to go Pirate. As much as I’ve enjoyed being a Ninja, the yearning for blood has just become too strong…so I’ve taken the leap.

At the moment I’m running around waiting to hear a yes or no from my application to The Tuskers…hopefully that will go over well, as they are an awesome group of people I’d love to be a part of. Though, I will miss Suddenly Ninjas as they are an awesome group of people too .

I’ve got a decent bit of kills in High Security space, but to be a Pirate I need to do it out in lowsec…without tricking people into shooting me. The first 2 days I started I couldn’t find any kills, but then the 3rd day (yesterday) I got a bit luckier. I got 3 destroyer kills in my Rifter, and the pods of 2 of them. The first pod got away because I forgot I moved my scram to the F1 slot and turned it off rather than my guns and he warped out.

One of the individuals I popped and podded had a nice conversation with me this afternoon…you can read it below.

I doubt a 2 day old character can mine enough to pay me what i’d be satisfied with to not shoot them.

I don’t do percentages, I require a set amount of ISK per day.

thats what i do percents. never mind ill just park a fleet next time see how you do then. blows up a scout lol good luck

After this, I had to go have Thanksgiving Dinner at two different families places…came back a few hours later to find out that I now have a bounty of 15,000 ISK. Yes, don’t be shocked…you read that correctly. It is 15…with THREE (holy shit…THREE!!!) Zeros. This dude wasn’t messing when he said he was rich!

So, I’m pretty scared now…not entirely sure what I should do. I was considering possibly giving all my assets away and quitting EVE just to be on the safe side. But after speaking with a few people, including a Preacher, two cheap hookers, and a mailman, I’ve decided to take my chances and hope the Noob Fleet of Doom doesn’t show up and rape me mercilessly.

A lot of people recently let me know that they enjoyed reading about two idiots I had the pleasure of encountering.   Some people thought they were funny, some people thought they were stupid (I thought both…or maybe just naive).  Either way, one of them (Antiquity1) thought I was the stupid one…and I was met with this evemail upon logging into the game one day.

Hey, just wondering if you wanted a PvP match in Assiettes? Message back with a time please.

Needless to say, this sounded like an excellent plan to me, so after a few more evemails…we decided to meet!

2009.10.26 12:37 – To Antiquity1
What type of match? Ship Type?

2009.10.26 17:43 – From Antiquity1
Remember a few days ago you were in your Wolf? How about that

2009.10.27 03:18 – To Antiquity1
Depends on what you plan on being in…

Not really sure yet, howabout I turn up in whatever ship I’m using when you get in system and I’ll see if you think thats alright?

While I’m getting ready to write a new post up with some Tears I got today (not epic tears, but tears none-the-less)…I realized that I have put off so many fun happenings this past month that I forgot the bloody details of half of them!  In the future I plan on taking so some sort of notes, that way when I procrastinate on making posts about them…I don’t forgot the good stuff.

So, in leu of lots of epicness and gory details…I’ll just give you some links to some kills…and let you make up your own stories!

Ok…the first one you don’t get to make up…it’s simple, I took a pot shot at a Harbinger fighting a Drake on a gate.  They both died, and yes…I went back and took their loots!

I also remember details about these next three kills!  We were bored one day, and decided to go have fun in a wormhole.  We spent a good hour or so jumping in and out of the wormhole, with these people jumping in and out as well.  Turns out they were just waiting for more of their people to log in.  Finally, on the wormhole…a Harbinger, Drake, MOA, and Navy Megathron started shooting at us.  Not sure why, but none of them jumped through except the Megathron when they got into hull (and he only made it by about 20% )…it ended in fun for us, none for them…and we came away with an lolfit harbinger kill…and about an hour before, a few people in SN killed a hauler of theirs that dropped a Large Shadow Tower…that was nice of them!

And of course….I did lose a few ships.

http://handsoffmyloots.eve-kill.net/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=4618429 me and another member of SN got bored and went to play around in lowsec…lesson learned…don’t play with Harbingers in frigates…

http://handsoffmyloots.eve-kill.net/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=4599477 this one happened before we killed those 3 people in the wormhole…I was bored, shooting at a medium gun on a tower, it got a lucky shot…and yes, that is a SN member on the kill…I was in his HIC Bubble on the wormhole earlier so he got the killing blow …darn ninjas!

http://handsoffmyloots.eve-kill.net/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=4572723 testing out a battle bestower fit…didn’t work well because I let them refit and come back.  That’s ok though…the Iteron stayed there long enough for me to fly 8 jumps to pick up this.

That is all…now go do something useful!

I was bored…tired of Station Spinning I actually decided to undock and go harass miners rather than Mission Runners.  The first couple of systems didn’t have anyone who wanted to play, but then on my third try I found myself a nice Covetor mining in a belt with a few rat wrecks around him.  After stealing from the wrecks he warps off…and a few minutes later an NPC Corp Thrasher shows up next to me…and this is the conversation we had, along with a little party.

For those that don’t want to read the entire thing, here’s the tl:dr version first:  ERIC KVEILAN was mining on his main (yes…he’s an alt…with an all caps name…).  After I took some stuff from his rat wrecks…he came out in ERIC in a Thrasher because he doesn’t know anything about aggro rules.  I learned that he was account sharing so I told him I wouldn’t report him if he fought me, and that we would only fight to hull.  After a while he agreed, he warped out twice before I told him I’d go refit for range so he would have a chance…but instead I switched my Disruptor out for a Scram so I could kill him this time.  After that, I got minor Tears…and a threat that he’d find me later…continue reading on for the full version…
