Poinen residents and on-duty Agents of the New Order watched the spectacle in local chat. There was a real potential for the situation to escalate; Seth had no intention of calming down, despite being repeatedly instructed to do so.
Agents of the New Order aren't the type to write people off. EVE players--even carebears--are presumed to be redeemable. Besides, our wallets are filled with the isk of people who said they would "never pay".
Because the incident was occurring in the local channel of a busy system, a crowd gathered. Would they side with the carebear or with CODE.?
Over the years, there have been thousands of misunderstandings that have led to many EVE players having a low opinion of the mighty CODE. alliance. However, everyone in Poinen took our Agent's side in her conflict with Seth. This is consistent with the pattern of increasing pro-Code sentiment that we've been seeing lately.
When passersby inquired about what was going on, Luna linked the killmail in local. That explained it all.
Seth tried to defend himself, arguing that he wasn't piloting illegal mining equipment--he was merely smuggling it.
In addition to being an admitted Code violator, the miner's unique writing style didn't endear him to the public.
Seth then made another admission: He had previously read the Code in its entirety. He announced that he didn't think there was much value in the Code. But Seth was not exactly bursting with credibility.
In his anger, Seth didn't realize that he was helping the New Order win hearts and minds.
Nevertheless, our Agents weren't content to sit back and rest on their laurels. They awaited an opportunity to get Seth interested in buying a mining permit.
With calmness comes rationality. Calm miners tend to be far more interested in buying permits. Seth wasn't there yet, but surely his rage couldn't go on forever.
No longer interested in rallying allies to his anti-Code cause, Seth picked fights with everyone around him. Agent Luna quietly observed Seth's behavior and considered that perhaps it would be better to speak with the miner another day, after he'd had sufficient time to calm down.
But the fight was only beginning. If Seth couldn't win allies through persuasion, he'd use his money to hire mercenaries.
To be continued...
Yeah, eff CODE though they do make high-sec space a little more interesting.....but this Seth dude is channeling one serious Shatner personation.
ReplyDeleteRISK.
RISK GENTLEMEN.
THAT'S
WHAT
THIS
STARSHIP
IS
ALL ABOUT.
eff CODE? But here you are admitting that we are a positive influence on High Sec? :D
DeleteYou should give the Code another read. I think that if you understood our mission, you wouldn't be on the fence about us. :)

Kneejerk defiance is no longer in vogue. Our mission to bring risk to highsec and save carebears from themselves is a noble one.
DeleteWell said professor!
DeleteUlic Qel Droma I won't go as far as to say the CODE is a positive benefit, but I said many times on my blog, in the EVE Online forums and on this blog that it makes high-sec more interesting. We haven't had anything since Hulkageddon or the Ice Belt interdictions that did that. I call both the good and the bad on anything I see.
DeleteMaybe also it would SMARTEN PEOPLE UP about their fit! WHY do some people leave their rig slots EMPTY? It makes me lose my mind!
I for one look forward to Seth Anzomi joining this forum. We need, we deserve, his input.
ReplyDeletehey, where are all the butthurt anons? Seems like they disappeared for the KOTW post, strange...
ReplyDeleteReminds me of the good ol' days, when legions of angry bears would rage on the blog 6 days out of the week, then hide in shame on sunday.
Lacking the courage to even comment on the shining beacon of win that is the KOTW post, the butthurt can only look on in silence, awestruck by our elite PVP achievements. #Sad

I think they were angry about minerbumping.com increasing content by 85%
DeleteThey got tired of insanity and stupidity
DeleteGot bored
DeleteYou guys aren't fun anymore.
DeleteCant talk to people who cant read or follow their own damn laws.
DeleteDon't want to comment on nerfed blogs its no fun
DeleteLost content = lost fun. Minerbumping.com lost its fun making Nazis rage
DeleteNo fun anymore code took away content nerfed the site and now its no fun reading your shit posts. Code fails to be relevant to anyone outside code anymore. This part of metagaming died.
DeleteTired of Nazis, moved on.
DeleteCode lost its reputation when it moderated its comment, no use in playing with you guys no more. Its not fun to pick on kids who have wrapped themselves in bubble wrap.
DeleteYou guys aren't fun after the nerf.
DeleteNo more fun since the moderating started. Code isn't fun no more
DeleteSo, what I'm hearing is that tweeps is mad about minerbumping.com increasing content by 85% and has rage-quit up his anti-CODE Jihad.... for now!
DeleteXD XD XD XD XD XD XD
That's one mad shitter anon ;)
Delete"I'm gonna go play games with better graphics T_T qq" -anon 7:19 - 7:37
Delete"Seth tried to defend himself, arguing that he wasn't piloting illegal mining equipment--he was merely smuggling it."
ReplyDeleteI lost it right there. ;)
Aight ag, here's another of those innocent, helpless noobs you so like to rally behind. Let's hear you defend yet another shitter that needs removed from EVE. Tell us how someone should have tried to talk to this idiot before pvping him.
ReplyDeleteSomeone should request a welfare check on Seth. Daily.
I don't understand why people like him aren't under 24 hour sedation. You know he has to be a danger to those around him.
ag has no problem getting behind players like Seth, because way too many are just like him.
DeleteYou'd expect a wormholer to know how to deal with a PvP loss, but he's just a kid using EVE to make ad revenue streaming on Twitch.
DeleteStop bringing a RL situation into your game, it stopped being funny ages ago.
DeleteYou mean like those RL nazis you were crying about for weeks, anon738?
DeleteGet rekt shitter, you don't belong in EVE.
Death to EVE! Code was the first step now we must try to kill the game.
ReplyDeleteDear AG shitters,
DeleteYour autistic screeching comparing blowing up spaceships to Nazis isn't content...it's just autistic screeching. Go back to failing non stop in game, or screech on HSM blog...I'm sure they'd appreciate the hits, since no one reads it.
Its all content baby
DeleteMinerbumping.com has increased content by 85%!
ReplyDeleteall i have to say is antigankers are truly failing hard right now
ReplyDeleteYour married to the AG
DeleteEVE carebears remind me of a type of person that lives in the States.
ReplyDeleteThese people are lazy and unmotivated, and they will wail and cry and protest, even riot, if they think that the rest of us are trying to make it harder on them to be lazy, useless shitters.
They don't want to work for what they need, they want the rest of society to do all the work and pay taxes to provide them with the same necessities others have to earn.
They refuse to work for a better community, and instead would rather cry and protest and try to bully the rest of society into paying high taxes so the lazy ones can remain barefoot, pregnant, and on the government dole. They want protection without effort.
Once they realized that they could vote for a check/free money it was all over, now the only way to make them productive members of our society will be war. A bloody senseless war because those people are lazy shitters that won't work and are content to ride the government handout train right into the ground.
They would watch their protectors and providers go broke and fall into anarchy rather than get a job and try to contribute.
You see, even when these people have jobs they will hide their income so they can still recieve the government handouts, much like a miner claiming poverty as an excuse to pay a measly 10mill ISK for a permit, but then hiring "mercs" for hundreds of millions to chase ghosts. Not productive members of society.
Don't let EVE become a haven for unemployed, useless, perpetual societal leeches. Kill all carebears until they are forced to join null/low groups and are forced to fight for EVE. Otherwise all of EVE will soon be overcrowded with the same types of leeches, those that won't contribute to their own welfare.

DeleteI don't really know what this is all about, but:
Delete"...Kill all carebears..."
Yeah okay, I can get behind that.
-Oink
So what you think is that, in RL, these lazy people who do not work should be killed by the military?
DeleteNo dumbass655, that was not even insinuated. You are just another dumb shitter that cannot read.
DeleteMaybe you need a job and then an education.
Do you even pay taxes bro?
