Member of the EVE Tweet Fleet
Hands Off, My Loots!

The Life of a Ninja

Well, I got accepted into Suddenly Ninjas on the 30th of Jul, and have been having quite a bit of fun with them.  I’ve gone on 2 corporate fleet operation so far, and from the looks of it…this is gonna be one awesome ride!

I wasn’t in the first op, with everyone just running around Dodixie as a fleet salvaging peoples loots…got paid 4mil for being there a short while…not much else to talk about with that one.

Now the second Op…totally different story, I was in this Op for over 8 hours and it was a BLAST.  Just a short summary, I looted, I salvaged, I killed someone who shot at me, and I killed someone who didn’t shoot at me and collect some epic tears that truthfully I think I’m gonna have a hard time getting some better than the tears I now have bottled and setting in my China Cabinet.

My First Epic Tears

I’ve included the chat log on a different page simply because it’s rather long, you can check it out with the link above and I’ll explain a little here.

The short version is, I started out ramming some random person in a belt…apparently there was something wrong with my nav system.  A conversation was had, we went back and forth about who the real prick was, evemails were sent (well, at least I sent one to his ceo…not sure about him yet), and it ended with me podding him, getting my 30 Million isk Stabber blown to hell by Concord (forgot to insure it…i really need to quit doing that), and then going to bed shortly after…was a fun time :)

Throughout the whole conversation, another member of Suddenly Ninjas managed to play the ‘good guy’ telling my new ‘friend’ that he would make sure to get me kicked from corp, and while doing all that…managed to get the password to this little miners giant secure can.  So I relieved him of his 2 hours worth of ore and told him I hacked his can.  Never once did he ever suspect that my corp mate was actually still on my side…some people really are thick headed aren’t they?

Earlier in the operation though, we were kindly helping a mission runner clean up his wreck field when he fired on me and a few other corp members.  I went and grabbed the Stabber (that was concorded later for the guy in the belt) and went to work on him while waiting for someone else in corp that also got aggro to make it back with a bigger ship.  Ended up I didn’t need any help, even with my crappy skills.  Took him down after a few minutes with support from a Remote Repping corp mate to keep me from dying…was a fun time.

Other than those two big incedents (my first official pvp kill, and my first tears) the rest of the Op went pretty smoothly for me and I went to bed thoroughly happy with my first real excursion with the Ninjas.

Though, seeing as to how I used to be one of the people hoping that ninjas didn’t come bother me or flip my cans, I almost feel a little dirty and like a traitor.  But then again…I guess I am…but, hey…I’m enjoying EVE now…so I think the change was worth it.
