The logs show nothing--but MinerBumping shows everything. Welcome to the latest edition of the Highsec Miner Grab Bag!
It's not uncommon to see carebears get vaporized for violating the Code, for reasons other than illegal mining. They look down on the miners, but all Code violators are alike. Mining, whining, what's the difference?
"Bumping? That won't do anything." That's what the miners said before their whole world changed forever.
The recent Rock, Paper, Shotgun article about the New Order generated an unusually high volume of user comments for a single article. Among the tear-shedders was a fellow named "sujet", who wrote a 900-word essay on how bad we are for the game. He says he's not an EVE player. More proof that the New Order's content creation engages people beyond the borders of our game.
Meanwhile, in Anti-Ganking...
Wrestling with the ethics of ganking permit holders? The debate seems like wasted effort, given that Anti-Gankers lack the skill and motivation to go through with it anyway.
Miners who get ganked can't wait to get their revenge on our Agents. Yet they are forced to wait, pretty much forever. The New Order teaches miners patience, and so much else.
Another highsec industrialist who cares deeply for new players in his corp. How long until he abandons them or raises their taxes?
A couple decades ago, AIDS was everywhere in the news. When the media coverage died down, a lot of people forgot about AIDS. But Rafa DerErste hasn't forgotten.
...Is this supposed to be good news or bad news?
About two months ago, MartinRocka filed a formal complaint against Agent Tisiphone Dira. It's a good thing the complaint was formal, otherwise it would've taken me even longer to read it.
I'm still not 100% sure what the complaint is, but MartinRocka warns that if his advice isn't taken to heart, the New Order will never succeed as a movement. Carebears, have some faith. The Code is an idea; it can't be killed and it always wins. When CCP dissolves and the EVE servers go dark, the Code will live on. Can you say the same about your mining barge?
The Code always wins. Always!!
ReplyDeleteYea, except when a gank fails.
ReplyDeleteExcept when a code member gets banned.
Except when ming tries to help out.
Besides all that, yea code always wins, sometimes.
Miner, calm down.
DeleteWhy should he? It's true.
DeleteA missed gank is not a failure; it's a lesson. The only failure is if the Agent doesn't learn from it.
DeleteWrong. You spent ammo, CONCORD shows up and blows up your ship, your victim survived, and you have nothing to show for it except your own loss. That is a failure regardless if the so called agent learned anything from it or not.
DeleteEve is a unique game - a dull one, but a very interesting experience for those with the mindset to do so.
ReplyDeleteSadly that said it's still a game that is a lot better to read about than to experience first hand.
@ daniel Sidrat.
DeleteEve is only dull if you sit and wait for content to come to you, currently sitting in a wormhole waiting for the industrial residents to log. Create your own content, you never know where it may take you.

DeleteWe're just glad you are here, every single day, to read every single word James 315 posts and to read every single reply. It's obvious how big of a fan you are, and we are grateful for your support in making this the most popular EVE online related blog!
It pains me to see, that my german brethren forget proper spelling while being angry. Since Feigling is a noun, it has to be written with a capital letter. And although he remembered that when writing Penner, he forgot one n.
ReplyDeleteThere is still a long way to go. Will CODE be able to bring miners to the point to stoically suffer losses? Only time will tell...
Many say that the blatant grammatical mistakes made by many blown up miners are the consequence of english not being their mother tongue. But in this case? Only huge amounts of built up rage (without a doubt from excessive mining) can explain it.
DeleteSounds like some miners dont enjoy highsec content or PVP!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThe Code ALWAYS Wins!!!!! ALWAYS!!!!!
Lol a 900-page response essay on the RPS article? It's the gift that keeps on giving.
ReplyDelete900-word* essay... 900 pages would be a tiny little bit over the top ;)
DeleteThis ^^^^ because code agents 'never' make mistakes...
DeleteTypos aren't mistakes. They are just fodder for fail forum trolls such as yourself. Alana is just as infallible as the rest of us.
DeleteAs for it being a "tiny little bit over the top".. I would not be surprised to see a 900-page essay from one of these bears. Sad... In the time it takes to write one; the bear could have read the Code and would have been filled with joy and happiness.

ReplyDeleteYeah right. The code only exists in the community of players and former player, and perhaps by some people who follow the game but have never played it. When the servers do go dark, the entire community, code included, will slowly go off into the dark knight as well and be forgotten.
"Science advances one funeral at a time." - Max Plank.
You are correct that the code is an idea and you can't really kill an idea. Ask the Romans how well that worked when they tried to stamp out Christianity, or modern day China for that matter. There are gank failures all the time. You don't hear about it because the killmail is not generated when there is no kill. As for code always winning, since gank failures are not recorded, it's an illusion.
I'm on the fence about whether you guys are a good thing in game or not. Whatever else, you are certainly entertaining. You've managed to become the boogie man of hisec. A content generator that pushes people to expand their horizons.
ReplyDeleteKudos for that.
Try ganking with the New Order for a week - that will push you off the fence, one way or another.
DeleteOr you can do like ming and stay docked up all the time.
Delete-=M=-
Still on the fence? Read the post of anonbear June 21 6:06. While a bit extreme; that represents part of the filth that we work to rid hisec of.
DeleteAlso; just go on one freighter fleet with the top PVPer in all of EVE. You will enjoy your time. All you need is a player that can fly a catalyst; and a heart.
"Try ganking with the New Order for a week - that will push you off the fence, one way or another."
DeleteSome friendly advice join the fleet 3rd parties get shot trust me I know.
If you got shot in the fleet it was probably because you were being a Goofus instead of a Gallant. It happens.
DeleteAlso.. Hiding behind a faceless mask and saying "trust me I know" doesn't get you very far :(
@Nitetime Video as I said I wasn't in the gank fleet which is why I was shot hence the 3rd parties get shot line. I was on the fence if I wanted to shoot Code. or shoot the freighter.
DeleteIt was watching ag failing to do anything except talk big and whore on concord kills that pushed me to my choice to join the gank but since I never joined the fleet I was quickly relived of my ship but I did manage to get some shots in so it was all good and very fun 10/10 will gank again.

Yes.. I suppose that clarifies things. Your first post was a bit confusing. I interpreted it as "Join the fleet as a 3rd party and you get shot".
DeleteI am glad you had fun and hope you join us in the future!
"The Code will live on." We know it intellectually, but it always warms the heart to hear the Supreme Protector reassure it!
ReplyDeleteToo bad the New Order wasn't having a shareholder meeting in that Charleston Church.
ReplyDeleteNah, they'd be going to carebear churches armed as PVP supremacists.
You sicken me
DeleteThen I have accomplished what I have set out to do.
DeleteAnon dark humor always wins. Always.
Kalynn, Calm down. All you have done is further alienate yourself from those who might have supported you at one time. You post filth on the forums and then bray like an ass whenever anyone responds. You have won nothing but your own failure.
DeleteI love how they think they're edgy. this shit was old back in 2001, you're not shocking anyone anymore.

ReplyDelete"Bumping? That won't do anything." That's what the miners said before their whole world changed forever.
..and it changed forever because of one man; James 315, Saviour of Highsec.
Happy Father's Day, Father of the New Order!
Today is Father's Day in the UK, so Every Good Wish to those for whom it's an opportunity for celebration or reflection!
Agreed. Let us all set aside our differences and squabbles and celebrate The Father of the New Order and the New Halaima Code of Conduct.
DeleteHappy Father's day, James 315!
I second this initiative. Let's all take some time this Father's Day to reflect on all of what James 315 has done for his children of New Eden. Like any good father, his wisdom, guidance, and yes, his discipline, have shaped his children into better people.
ReplyDeleteHappy Father's Day James 315 and forever may you reign over highsec!
James 315 is a charlatan who has done nothing but spread misery and impoverishment throughout highsec. His time in this game will soon be at an end.
ReplyDeleteNo, jamie, the code is a lie and sooner or later all lies die out...
ReplyDeletemaybe, but so far (over 3 years) that more describes the anti code movements
DeleteLogically the anti-code movement can`t die before code dies, unless all citizens of HighSec comply to the CODE and there is just peace.
