There's been quite a lot of talk lately about EVE's decline and CCP's internal problems. Some of this talk is worth taking seriously; last month we learned How CCP Can Save Itself and EVE Online. That MinerBumping post contains the definitive set of solutions for getting EVE back on track. Yet the question remains: Is EVE really dying?
People have been proclaiming some variation of "EVE is dying" for years. That doesn't mean that EVE is immortal, or that CCP will never fold. On the other hand, in light of history, dire warnings about EVE's future should be taken with a grain of salt.
I think it's only appropriate to craft a definitive answer to that most provocative of questions, "Is EVE dying?" Whether they admit it or not, the EVE-playing public looks to the New Order and the mighty CODE. alliance for guidance. When they hear that EVE may be dying, they want answers, and on some level they expect those answers from us. They certainly won't get them anywhere else.
So here it is. This post may be linked wherever there is a discussion of whether EVE is dying.
MY
FACE
INCOMING
EVE is dying... for more Code.
EVE is dying... for emergent content, the vast majority of which is currently being supplied by the Code.
EVE is dying... for exciting, elite PvP, not risk-free AFK PvE such as that which the Code-violating bot-aspirants seek to practice.
EVE is dying... for a return to its roots, the spirit of EVE first revealed to the world in the story of the Guiding Hand Social Club's famous heist, the legacy of which is best represented by the New Order and its Agents.
EVE is dying... for an end to the stagnation that naturally arises from an isk-grinding, isk-hoarding mindset, be it in highsec, nullsec, or anywhere else; the New Order is the natural enemy of this mindset, and the Code articulates its only viable alternative.
EVE is dying... for big personalities, colorful characters like those who drove the story of EVE from the very beginning--the biggest and best example of which is the Saviour of Highsec; though my famous and extraordinary modesty scarcely permits me to say so, I do it for the sake of the game and the betterment of all who play it.
EVE is dying... for the creativity and derring-do displayed by so many Agents of the New Order as they find new ways of enforcing the Code--in such stark contrast to the carebears who beg CCP to make the game safer and easier for AFK isk-grinding.
EVE is dying... for more of those who would speak the truth, the real truth as it is spoken by our Agents and written in the time-honoured pages of MinerBumping, not the fake news and spin presented in carebear domains like the EVE subreddit, where upvotes and downvotes are so recklessly cast by the "I've never been ganked by CODE., but I hate them with a burning passion, almost as though I've been ganked by them..." set.
EVE is dying... for modesty and restraint on the part of carebears who might otherwise be tempted to fit their ships with blingy modules and their pods with unnecessarily expensive implants--and for swift punishment and expensive lossmails to those carebears who give in to temptation.
EVE is dying... for new players who come to the game to play the game the way it's meant to be played, not to change the game to accommodate their bot-aspirant "needs".
EVE is dying... for bold, courageous action by CCP devs willing to make good decisions, not devs who shrug their shoulders and say, "Well, we made some (bad) changes to this mechanic a few years ago, so we'll revisit it in another five years..."
EVE is dying... for responsible, hands-off GMs and forum moderators, who recognize that EVE is a game whose content comes from its players, not from those who warn, ban, and censor said players when they're starting to get interesting.
EVE is dying... for greater, more magnificent levels of Code-compliance, by highsec residents whose attitudes reflect how lucky they are to be given the opportunity to obey the Code.
EVE is dying... for a level of respect and praise from the EVE playerbase to the Saviour of Highsec that exceeds even the expectations of said Saviour's Agents--as befits said Saviour's great deeds and contributions to the game.
In short, EVE is dying... for Code, Code, and more Code.
Always!
Eye is dying... for Void S.
ReplyDeletePraise James 315! All capsuleers should immediately stop grinding for monthly PLEX. Reprocess your krabbing vessels and return to your roots by joining a PvP corp and blowing stuff up. Dissolve your NIPs and fire your diplomats. Ganking, bumping, baiting, scamming, brawling and war are way forward. Show your support for The Saviour and The Code, wherever you live, by purchasing a stylish permit from one of our Agents in the minerbumping channel. For The Good of New Eden.
ReplyDeleteIts the best place to find code agent tears on tap, delicious!
DeleteCant wait to drink them up when we kill the game, it will be like an ocean of code tears.
EVE Lives!
ReplyDeleteEVE lives for the Saviour of Highsec and his merry band of selfless Agents.
EVE lives.. for all those whose idea of fun is, like, blowing stuff up!
(etc.)
Stirring stuff, Saviour. Let the pod-goo flow!
Calm down murder lover.

If i had a $ for every time i heard this or

Or even
" ganking is bullying "
Eve ebbs and flows but the bot aspirancy is always a constant.
Just get rekt and remember shardani.
EVE is dying... for more highsec carebear hunting! Any pilot who truly cares about EVE should have at least one gank alt for killing highsec miners and ag filth. Killing ag helps EVE remain true to Hilmar's vision.
ReplyDeleteAlways!
Calm down murder lovers.

ReplyDeleteJames 315, the most hated visage in New Eden. That jut needs to be punched and battered. In game of course....he is nothing but a turd burglar.
DeleteU still mad bro ?
ReplyDeleteAll these code whiners are mad, it's what drives them. They are impotent against miners and, truth be known, are probably cuckolded at home.
ReplyDeleteSo those shitters would be mad no matter what.
code always fails! Always! And jamey is tiny-dick mad!
Well I hope you enjoyed your day without spam cause I'm back to make sure there is plenty of content on your blog seeing at how its lacking it so completely. I will begin shortly.
ReplyDeleteStay tearful child fucker.
ReplyDeleteWell at least he aint spending hours in game being the scourge of high sec mining.
ReplyDeleteThose highly dangerous and elite miners GRRRRRR.
BTW Karma you need to work on your refresh rate for you Hitler overlord
"Again, the Agent's report redacted certain information from this part of the story. However, it's highly probable that nothing untoward happened here."
ReplyDeleteOnly an invite to some kind of VOIP bonus room shenanigans that Jamey and his CHODE. slaves are known to engage in. Shameful. Nobody can trust CHODE.
Space racketering and extortion at its best.
ReplyDeleteDon't support these guys ever. Be your own capsuler and fly only what you can afford to lose.

ReplyDeleteCalm down james.
However to call gunning down someone who has no ability, or little ability, to defend themselves "elite PVP" is the same as sucker punching a 6 year old and calling it championship boxing.
ReplyDeleteTest of Valour. Prove you are not afraid to die by Coding a valuable ship, and do so in a manner that demonstrates integrity and honesty.

Suck on it and take that impotent rage and shove it up your homophobic ass ya hurt feelings little bitch.
Don't kid yourselves. Even the dirtiest pirates from the birth of EVE have been carebears. They use alts to bring them goods at cheap prices and safely, rather than live with consequences of their in game actions on their main, from concord to prices
ReplyDeleteAlas, expecting a "gf" back from an agent is, at best, a lesson in futility and broken expectations. Agents who get caught at gates and killed, get disrupted warping into a site and get killed, get ECM jammed and their victim saved (and themselves subsequently killed) seem to have a visceral inability to reply back to a "gf".
ReplyDeleteI wonder why?
How do you know your talking to an agent of code?
ReplyDeleteThey tell you to go kill yourself.
How do you make and agent of code happy?
You kill yourself.
Never forget shartdani! Our best agent of the CODE!
ReplyDeleteNevah!
How CODE acts:
ReplyDeleteGovernment agencies at all levels aimed to exclude Jews from the economic sphere of Germany by preventing them from earning a living. Jews were required to register their domestic and foreign property and assets, a prelude to the gradual expropriation of their material wealth by the state. Likewise, the German authorities intended to "Aryanize" all Jewish businesses, a process involving the dismissal of Jewish workers and managers, as well as the transfer of companies and enterprises to non-Jewish Germans, who bought them at prices officially fixed well below market value. From April 1933 to April 1938, "Aryanization" effectively reduced the number of Jewish-owned businesses in Germany by approximately two-thirds.
What code forces miners to pay for:
During the Nazi era, German authorities reintroduced the Jewish badge as a key element in their plan to persecute and eventually to destroy the Jewish population of Europe. They used the badge not only to stigmatize and humiliate Jews but also to segregate them and to watch and control their movements.
How code fights:
Blitzkrieg means “lightning war”. It was an innovative military technique first used by the Germans in World War two and was a tactic based on speed and surprise. Blitzkrieg relied on a military force be based around Light tank units supported by planes and infantry (foot soldiers). The tactic was based on Alfred von Schlieffen’s ‘Schlieffen Plan’ – this was a doctrine formed during WWI that focused on quick military victory. It was later developed in Germany by an army officer called Heinz Guderian who looked at new technologies, namely dive bombers and light tanks, to improve the German army’s maneuverability.
Minerbumping.com propaganda is just like:
Films released to the public concentrated on certain issues: the greed of Jews; the greatness of Hitler; the way of life for a true Nazi especially the young and as World war 2 approached, how badly Germans who lived in countries in Eastern Europe were treated.
"A governmental police force" Well we seen that before and it never worked out for the public.
ReplyDelete"aimed at evicting from Highsec all them bums who won't hail James 315" So now he needs attention and worship from everyone. Attention whore perhaps?
"by inflicting misery and preventing them from earning a living" Like when Nazi Germany forced the Jews into the ghettos.
"All residents are required to display a permit and contribute 10 million ISK per year of their material wealth to the state." So taxes, but you don't get to vote on them, a revolution was fought about this once.
"Under the New Order, society consists of three strata: the elite Agents, the loyal masses, and the squatters." Wow a repeat of a Nazi society, a hierarchy born from the idealism of an egalitarian society.
"The loyal masses are free to run businesses as they see fit, providing that they comply with The Code." Unfortunately its hard to comply to rules that are changing on a daily basis.
"A permit, available for the cost of a symbolic fee, just like all the other law-abiding capsuleers." A symbolic fee would be more like what Xerxees was asking for, this is actually part of a players earnings and thus not symbolic.
"Always Elite, always outnumbered, always winning." Depends on who you ask, and certainly not elite here in the comments with the amount of swearing is done even by named agents. Winning would be a relative term, in this instance, where you are profiting but your still not getting the control your demanding.
"Posts released to the public concentrated on certain issues: the greed of carebears; the greatness of James 315; the way of life of Agents, and how badly the noncompliant miners who squat in Highsec live." Now that does sound very familiar.
"Films released to the public concentrated on certain issues: the greed of Jews; the greatness of Hitler; the way of life for a true Nazi especially the young and as World war 2 approached, how badly Germans who lived in countries in Eastern Europe were treated." Yup that's why it sounded familiar.
Good evening, New Eden. Allow me first to apologize for this interruption. I do, like many of you, appreciate the comforts of everyday routine, the security of the familiar, the tranquility of repetition, the totality of blogs. I enjoy them as much as any bloke. But in the spirit of commemoration, where upon important events of the past, usually associated with someone's death or the end of some awful bloody struggle, are celebrated with a nice holiday, I thought we could mark this November the 5th, a day that is sadly no longer remembered, by taking some time out of our daily lives to sit down and have a little chat. There are, of course, those who do not want us to speak. I suspect even now, orders are being shouted into telephones, and men with moderator accounts will soon be on their way. Why? Because while the truncheon may be used in lieu of conversation, words will always retain their power. Words offer the means to meaning, and for those who will listen, the enunciation of truth. And the truth is, there is something terribly wrong with this country, isn't there? Cruelty and injustice, intolerance and oppression. And where once you had the freedom to object, to think and speak as you saw fit, you now have censors and systems of surveillance coercing your conformity and soliciting your submission. How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well, certainly, there are those who are more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable. But again, truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror. I know why you did it. I know you were afraid. Who wouldn't be? War, terror, ganking. They were a myriad of problems which conspired to corrupt your reason and rob you of your common sense. Fear got the best of you, and in your panic you turned to the now high chancellor, James 315. He promised you order, he promised you peace, and all he demanded in return was your silent, obedient consent. This night, I seek to end that silence. This night, I corrupt the MB to remind this community of what it has forgotten. A great citizen wished to embed the fifth of November forever in our memory. His hope was to remind the world that fairness, justice, and freedom are more than words; they are perspectives. So if you've seen nothing, if the crimes of this Code remain unknown to you, then I would suggest that you allow the fifth of November to pass unmarked. But if you see what I see, if you feel as I feel, and if you would seek as I seek, then I ask you to stand beside me, inside the gates of High Sec, and together we shall give them a fifth of November that shall never, ever be forgot.
ReplyDeleteSo the victims of their villainous deeds would descend upon them bringing forth new weapons and new warriors who would fight in new ways. Those who had done them harm would find fate without mercy and they would feign bravery. Alas fear wells up deep from within and a very real shiver ascends the spine of the criminals and murderers as they now look into the very mirror of their animosity. They cannot win a war that reflects themselves.
ReplyDeleteThe Code of Awakening.
ReplyDelete1: The “Awakened” always wins.
2: The Eve Online code has never won ever due to the fact of the tactics being used are considered by the game developers to be “illegal Ganks”.
3: If a member of the New Order of Halaima fails to consider that they are just like suicide terrorists then they are very short sighted and must be considered criminal and unstable.
4: Any member of the code alliance must be considered unstable, troll them online only but if met in real life stay away and call the authorities for they may be bringing their in game rage and anger out of game to harm people and children.
5: Under no circumstances must you ever let a code agent near children.
6: Always renounce the ways of the codes favorite agent Kalynn Shardani, they praise this agent highest due to his actions of killing his own child for the code alliance.
7: Only under extraordinary circumstances will a member of the code become anything more than a closet terrorist, criminal, unstable, child molester, and/or greifers. Those who do make progress towards enlightenment must be monitored closely and never fully trusted as the indoctrination of James 315 is still within them and they could return to wanting to harm people in real life.
8: Never converse with the code agent in game, they will claim it as a victory but it also serves as a way of gathering information on you which they may use to find you in real life to visit harm upon you. They will post the conversation on their website so that all the other agents may attempt to locate you and visit harm upon you and your children.
9: Remember that a code agent does not live in reality, due to this fact they can never truly win in any engagement be it an argument or a battle.
10: The “Awakened” shall know only victory over the code agent because the code knows only hate, pain, greed, and envy. The “Awakened” always worships life while the code agent only worships death and murder. The “Awakened” accepts and follows laws while the code will bring their delusions out of game and fail to recognize laws.
11: A code agent will never accept reality, they cling to their fantasies with a death grip, and no agent is ever truly awakened from their delusions. Because of this they always fail at life.
Police have taken into custody the suspect in an active shooter situation at the Montage condominium complex in downtown Reno at 255 N Sierra Street.
ReplyDeletePolice have closed 2nd Street and Commercial Avenue and surrounding areas.
Police say the shooter was barricaded inside the Montage with a hostage, whom police say is safe, screaming about noncompliance of a code. Police shot at the shooter, who is alive.
A SWAT team and the Washoe County Sheriff helicopter are on scene.
The incident began shortly before 7PM November 28, 2017.
HAHAHAHAHA I'm back to annoy you fucks again. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
ReplyDeleteYeah you would say that after you watched me plug your mum again, let her know I expect dinner to be ready when I get home and you to be out of the house.
ReplyDeleteThey wanna be pirates but lowsec's too scary, so they stay in their little themepark and annoy the other kids.
ReplyDeleteRemember miners are dangerous and words hurt.
ReplyDeleteBeing a High sec Pirate is like playing basketball against a retarded kid. You already know what the outcome will be, and the rest of us look at you like you are a jack ass. Only like minded douches buy into ganking miners, and new players.
ReplyDeleteI'm about as carebear as they come, but I still have the stones to live in null, low, and spend time in WH space. The shit people give high sec players for never leaving can be attributed to these guys as well, the only difference is, that at least carebears don't fly around with an inflated sense of pride because they pad their kill boards with kills from people who can't fight back.
I'm sure these are the people who play fps games against novice bots, and claim that they are l33t.
Code is basically a group that likes to fight the defenseless/easy fights. Generally flying catalysts. They take their RP seriously, but are generally a bunch of annoying shmucks harassing the indie playerbase. Mostly goon alts too iirc.
ReplyDeleteBuy a falcon, fly into a system where they're operating, start collecting tears (ganker tears have 10x the satisfaction concentration!).
Spoiler alert:
ReplyDeleteMost PvP in this game is by people looking for easy wins.
Hence the lack of new players.
Ganking and extortion are valid interesting mechanics, however the fan club of these activities are typically a bunch of risk averse manbabies.
ReplyDeleteI mean fuck they didn't even show up for the alliance tournament because they were fearful of loss and tried to play it off as meta game.
The other piece of this though are new players making themselves easy targets by fitting inappropriately for lack of knowledge and making themselves subject to manbaby ganks. Gankers take advantage of the fact that they have incomplete knowledge. No-ware in the mining tutorial do they inform you that drones, shields and awareness are your primary tools of defense in high security space as an industry pilot. In fact dscan isn't even a thing in the tutorials.
CODE guys are pretty much the Console Gamers of EVE
ReplyDeleteI'm a one year old player now...I mine every now and again when I'm really bored...I see CODE a few times..and no way am I paying for any damn permit. Let them try and gank me and feel the tank and roar of my Skiff!
ReplyDeleteBunch of professional saggy-titted whores hiding being a lousy roleplay to justify pirate action on high sec miners.
ReplyDeleteMy last encounter with these cockroaches was with two newb catalyst who thought they could suicide gank my Skiff. Ah, enjoy my drones.
I was restraining myself. CODE is to EVE what diarrhoea is to regular bowel movement.
ReplyDelete•give only valid argument for why code highsec lolifes are the most pathetic in all of eve
ReplyDelete•wow, your so salty
This is their logic... Lol
Sadly, CODE and their allies are exploiting a loophole in the game's rules that states griefing is allowed, so long as the activity is profitable.
ReplyDeleteAnd James says he doesn't do this for the money, what a sack of shit without a sack.
New Order (CODE and co.) agents will show you absolutely no sympathy, as they are utterly convinced that their cause is just despite their rampantly hypocritical and psychopathic behaviour. Your agony and heartbreak will be met with a condescending "calm down miner" and repeated demands for purchase of a 'permit'. If the exchange becomes particularly heated, they may take the issue further and threaten your cop with a wardec. DO NOT CONTACT YOUR ASSAILANT AND DEFINITELY DO NOT PAY THEM. New Order agents will revoke a permit at the slightest pretext (sometimes under no pretext at all), and there is no real appeals process. Any isk you give them - and whatever they destroy and steal from you upon permit revocation - will be gone. It's not worth 10mil.
ReplyDeleteEven by EVE standards, It's a crappy game mechanic, it's cruel and encourages psychopathic behaviour.
ReplyDeleteThey are very good at warping to station, docking up, and then sperging in local about the "criminal scum" that is challenging the might of James 315.
ReplyDeleteSo, it's possible, but be prepared to just station camp a lot. They will hide there and refuse to fight. If you ship has guns, they won't attack.
When you create a group that constantly cries about miners and freighters that cant fight at all, you know its a group full of pussies that just needs to be kicked out of mommy's house.
ReplyDeleteSuicide Gankers literally can't fight head on. Faction police will scram, jam, neut and kill them because are sec status is too low.
ReplyDeleteInstead, they focus on attacking the targets they can kill and avoiding the ones they can't. Otherwise they would just be feeding kills to Faction Police.
Of course they won't. There's no benefit to do so. Gank pilots are often low-SP alts, meaning they can't really fly anything but a super short range, slow-as-hell gallente destroyer - which is useless in a straight fight. In addition, even if they did choose to fight, remaining on grid for more than 30 seconds causes Faction Police to spawn, which will annihilate their puny destroyer tanks.
ReplyDeleteIt's got very little to do with the fact you're trying to put up a fight, and more to do with the fact that there's literally no incentive for a ganker to do anything but gank.
Can confirm, if someone fights back, Code run and hide. It's like a retarded 10-year old punching another kid in the schoolyard; when the victim turns around to deck the kid, kid runs and climbs a tree/hides on the other side of a door and shouts incomprehensible jibberish
ReplyDeleteYou can't fight CODE because they don't want fights. They will dock up as soon as something that remotely resembles a fleet shows up.
ReplyDeleteThe only fight you can win against CODE is the isk one. Example: Move to null (they are afraid of it) and do your thing there.
The problem here is that youre making CODE out to be a bigger problem than they really are. Nobody makes any resistance movement because theres nothing to resist. Ive never seen a code member, they are essentially an urban legend to me and any person who pvp's has bigger fish to fry. My advice is to either join them or move out of high sec, seriously, low, null, and wh space arent as scary as you newbies make them out to be.
ReplyDeleteJames is probably some kind of sociopath to have kept minerbumping up this long. The concept was hilarious when first implemented but now is just a recurring nuisance. However this is one of the more open games and I appreciate that people are having a fun time roleplaying as Highsec crusaders of some kind.
ReplyDeleteEveryone else in this thread has covered pretty much why any serious effort to resist CODE is doomed to failure long term. The playerbase that have the skills to do so have little inclination to.
Tank your fits more, check local for gank alts, and don't fly like a blind idiot in hi-sec and you shouldn't lose too many ships.
carebear = a ganker who cant pvp, so he picks up on helpless defensless miners
ReplyDeleteThat's ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. Why should I have to play like everyone else?
ReplyDeleteIt's not a ♥♥♥♥ing crutch. These people have trillions of ISK and can afford to just kill all the new players. There should be higher penalties for Killing in Highsec space. Currently I see no such penalties.
Actually I do have lots of support skills(combat skills) and even skills for the orca and a battlecruiser, its not that I have a problem with. It's the fact that it takes years to get anywhere, which is fine with me, but everyone starting out has a disadvantage compared to the players who have played the longest.
ReplyDeleteI played this game when it first came out, so dont tell me about learning about it. I know how to learn, and I always knew this game was about learning, lots has changed.
I just think its ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥t that you are pretty much forced into accepting some fu cktards ideologies in this game.
How are you supposed to start your own empire if c unts are running around killing new players that dont adhere to their contrived rules?
There should either be recourse or they need to lessen the times it takes to learn skills to be able to counter attack.
This is practically a pay to win game. There are people who have 10's of accounts. There should be somewhat of an even playing field.
as for the ganking, there IS a problem. and thast that it isnt "high levels ganking low levels", its that its high levels giving a bunch of cash to their disposable 5 day old alts to fly a catalyst and destroy with impunity anything they desire. and with how slow/weak a mining barge is compared to literally anything a ganker can and will fly, once they decide to kill you, there is very little you can do to stop it, considering even a skiff cant tank enough to make it "unprofitable" or "unjustifiable" to gank.
ReplyDeletethe problem would be solved however if a trial account wasnt allowed to turn their guns off green in highsec (since there woudl be no reason for a enw player to be doing pirating of that level in their first 14 days), that way if a "high level" player wants to use disposable characters without breaching the EULA, they have to pony up an extra 750mil or 20 bucks every 3 characters.
"there is very little you can do to stop it, considering even a skiff cant tank enough to make it "unprofitable" or "unjustifiable" to gank."
DeleteWow. You don't know what you're talking about, sir. A completely untanked skiff is a non-profitable gank target. Learn to do maths.
Why do members of CODE need to continually justify their existence?
ReplyDeleteWhy do EvE online players in groups like CODE and Goonswarm need to go to other games and campaign to get those game changed to suit their play style, which let's be fair, upsets other people deliberately?
ReplyDeleteWhy won't EvE online players in groups like CODE, campaign to improve EvE?
ReplyDeleteWhy do members of groups like CODE think that it's OK to get that power ego trip by dominating other players in games where they (members of groups like CODE) are not wanted?
ReplyDeleteWhy do members of CODE claim to hate people "combat logging" yet run away when they are getting beaten an unfair fight where there are more CODE members (usually 4) against non-CODE members (usually 1)?
ReplyDeleteThere are many player groups in the game, doing various things with different objectives. Code is juste one group among others.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I don't like how they use the name and other attributes from the Eve group and pretend they have "nothing" to do with them and act offended when they're compared, like it's pure coincidence that they have the same name (all in capital letters no less) and do the exact same thing.
The CODE alliance in EVE aren't taken serious by anybody but themselves and some hisec carebears. They are the laughing stock of every other alliance/coalition in EVE. Oddly enough it's much the same way CODE are the laughing stock of Elite.
ReplyDeletecode answer to everything - we hate you and if you want to play eve and enjoy it then we will try to force
ReplyDeleteno bigger carebears than code, they sit in station all day, too scared to pvp and have 10 alts and bot more than anyone on Eve but have the audacity to call everyone else and whine
ReplyDeleteUseless Gank Corp with a bunch of Backward Kids with no balls to go to null sec or low sec. They fight a war against Miners armed with mining lasers, (real noble and courageous just like a wet fart). The leader is nuts and power crazy and Goonswarms little puppet. Nothing else to say they own no territory, have no ambitions - basically low life losers.
ReplyDeleteEntire alliance of unemployed wanna be con artists, fraudsters and other people of questionable character and the maturity level of a 10 year old most normal people would not want to have anything to do with in RL. Scum bag steve comes to mind.
ReplyDeleteloyalanon • 1 month ago
ReplyDeleteCODE has decided to close down, due to the lack of leadership.
Bunch of retards that have no clue how to PVP and Eve is too complex for them so they find the most stupidly easy thing to do on Eve and gank people who aren't able to shoot back. Full of unemployed idiots who spend all day on Eve because they are complete failures in real life. They also believe in a moron called James 315 who they look up to like a god, this shows how braindead they all are when they believe a pixel character in a video game can bring them fulfillment and tell them how to live their lives. This all shows their severe mental issues and zero direction in life.
ReplyDeleteThe Mittani is a joke and sucks horse dick. You Goon pussies lost all sov, because you all suck too much to play the game right.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoy playing EVE and its sense of community. I achieve satisfaction from building products and even mining. However, some areas are quite disturbing. I am talking about James 315 and the deleterious cult of CODE.
ReplyDeleteJames 315 has delusions of grandeur and his cult like ramblings remind me of Jim Jones of Jonestown infamy. Truly believing his own rhetoric that CODE are contributing to the betterment and growth of Eve.
His naïve guileless cult like followers have all the hallmarks of religious brainwashing. It is their personal choice to follow his ramblings, but to force through threats others to carry his "all hail James 315" mantra is beyond the pale.
Our parents told us to stand up to bullies and never bow down to false prophets. Hold firm to your sense of right and be brave in Eve.
STAND AS FREEMEN
BURN YOUR CODE PERMIT
HELP YOUR UNSUNG MINERS AND PATROL THEIR BELTS
AS INDIVIDUALS COME TO UEDAMA AND STOP CODE GANKING
AS CORPORATIONS FLEET UP AND DRIVE CODE OUT OF EMPIRE
DO NOT BE INTIMIDATED ANY LONGER
More operations against CODE are planned in February, watch for further information.
Yeahh, let me know how that works out for ya, buddy. :D

I ran out of popcorn, but i have an endless supply of salt.

ReplyDeleteYup just finished getting a blowjob from my son too, today is a good day.
Technically they do; the trick is that only the person you bought the permit from cannot gank you, so we're talking like 100 guys at any given time and you can't get shot by just 1 of them sooo you're still going down. Source: have alts in CODE. and main in corp defending their activity from anti-gankers.
ReplyDeleteYou're a really terrible liar. You have no alts in CODE. as demonstrated by your lies about the permit. Permits apply to and are honored by all New Order agents. Try harder.
Delete-Oink
just ignore them, fit tank, find different system and carry on, Code is an alliance of tryhards who run around highsec ganking things. Remember this is a PVP game as much as it is a PVE game, so learn from the experience and move on. Also make sure you never pay them for anything. Its worthless.
ReplyDelete"we're gonna shoot you for no other reason than we're bored and need something to shoot"
ReplyDeleteTheir a bunch of players from various alliances like gsf and the like that go around rping. They live off tears and salt, so if you feed it to them they will target you. A few basics to dealing with them is don't be afk, use a proc if you mine around their Hotspot and have their alliance set as red so they show up in local as such. They aren't exactly the hardest to avoid and really you just have to learn to avoid them and make yourself as not a target as possible.
ReplyDeleteYes simply by joining the code can you forever be known as he who cannot PVP properly.

You'll put your head in your hands and say: "What have I done?"
ReplyDelete750 hours, still not rich, still done not grinding, but already flown the ship of my dreams, it was the Cobra Mk 3. Am looking forward to the Beluga though when it comes out (eventually), more of a bling thing though. But anyway, still not bored. And planetary landings coming soon... how does Code figure into this? Erm... it doesn't.
ReplyDeleteNot got anything against Code people really. Most of them are decent folks, with a few bad apples thown in.
But self-aggrandizing posts like this or from posters like Manj ("The saviour of open".... my flaccid and aging *cough*), really don't do you guys any favours.
Get in game, do your stuff, and don't be jerks. That's all we need from Code. If you do it well, other people will sing your praises. Don't sing your own. Makes you look like *cough*.
seriously, ''When the hours wear on and you tire of the company of simple, predictable NPCS, CODE will be there?'' I think piracy should be a significant part of the game and a danger to traders, but this is a completely other level.
ReplyDeleteAll hail the CHODE pirates, may there strict Rules of conduct be a model for all Pirates
ReplyDeleteGrandiose delusions (GD) or delusions of grandeur are a subtype of delusion that occur in patients suffering from a wide range of mental illnesses, including two-thirds of patients in manic state of bipolar disorder, half of those with schizophrenia, patients with the grandiose subtype of delusional disorder, and a substantial portion of those with substance abuse disorders.[1][2] GDs are characterized by fantastical beliefs that one is famous, omnipotent, wealthy, or otherwise very powerful. The delusions are generally fantastic and typically have a supernatural, science-fictional, or religious theme. There is a relative lack of research into GD, in contrast to persecutory delusions and auditory hallucinations. About 10% of healthy people experience grandiose thoughts but do not meet full criteria for a diagnosis of GD.[2]
ReplyDeleteWhy do members of CODE need to continually justify their existence?
ReplyDeleteWhy do EvE online players in groups like CODE need to go to other games and campaign to get those game changed to suit their play style, which let's be fair, upsets other people deliberately?
Why won't EvE online players in groups like CODE, campaign to improve EvE?
Why do members of groups like CODE think that it's OK to get that power ego trip by dominating other players in games where they (members of groups like CODE) are not wanted?
Why do members of CODE claim to hate people "combat logging" yet run away when they are getting beaten in an unfair fight where there are more CODE members (usually 4) against non-CODE members (usually 1)?
Space piracy has transformed into actual piracy, as source code for EVE Online has been stolen and unleashed onto the web via torrent. While it may not be the full source code -- one Slashdot commenter said it was just Python source -- developer CCP is expectedly none too happy.
ReplyDeleteAccording to Community Manager "CCP Wrangler" on the official forums, "Anyone found distributing or discussing decompiled client code will face an in game ban." As to how they know who's distributing the code, various reports say CCP is seeding the torrent themselves and using the associated IP to ban the related accounts. Now that's just dirty.
Fighting for your Savior?
ReplyDeleteYour fighting for someone who is no longer alive and the mere mention of his name invokes a sense of lingering death in your mind as the 'spirit' that you recollect is in side you is nothing more than the dead trying to occupy your body thus making you the walking dead within New Eden.
There is no such thing as James315 walking around in High Sector as your savior because any such notion conveys an anti-Christ mentality of someone saying that they are James from a religious textbook when in fact they are nothing more than the twisted and rotted flesh of someone from the past.
ReplyDeleteYour prophet is based on someone from the past who has died.
no code, you are the miners
ReplyDeleteHe who fights with miners should look to it that he himself does not become a miner. And when you gaze longingly into some veldspar the veldspar also gazes into you. -Friedrich Nietzsche and Albert Einstein
ReplyDeleteReported for sexualizing miners
ReplyDeleteOf course, it also means the "miner" isn't a miner. I think the Venture gank groups (no, not CODE) were much more entertaining since NOBODY expected Ventures to do that. They were taking out T3 destroyers.
ReplyDeleteI love CODE. I mean they are literally high sec tear miners. It's absolutely glorious.
ReplyDelete"Whatever neurosis that drives the ganker to commit his crime is compounded, magnified by flight, by the sounds of that faction police spawn at his heels. This results in constant uneasiness, which becomes paranoia, and paranoia ultimately becomes psychosis."
ReplyDeleteGanker Gogela killed a Tayra which had dropped pretty much everything. However, a minute later, his looter Miyammato Musashi was punished by Bersagliere, whysoserios Andrard and Alexander Kaan. Gogela is one of the rare cases of a healthy ganker who understands EVE. Upon losing his looter, he was surprisingly calm and he embraced the mindset of "you lose some, you win some".
ReplyDeleteNitetime VideoNovember 30, 2017 at 6:24 AM
ReplyDeleteForget I asked, I know why they didn't because we find them and threaten to kill them and their kids. So they quit. I love killing their kids though so we just kill them anyways.
"One of them convo'ed me, we had a talk. He said ''I will gank in Niyabainen. I know that you hunt gankers. Please don't touch me, the target is very important this time''.
ReplyDelete-Johnny mal'ganis
Ganker Sottie StuartClan is quite a known figure in Piekura. However, when there is effective resistance, his operations fail. He wanted to gank a miner again but it failed hard thanks to the intervention from miners Basil Miromme, THECHRONICLESOF CHINMAN and Swaghetti II Yolognaise.
ReplyDeleteor you could, ya know, go outside in the yard and pull the legs off spiders.
ReplyDeleteThe tears from "hard core Pee v Pee players" are far sweeter than any other.
ReplyDeleteI think you will find many carebears are perfectly happy for pvp to take place consensual or not. it is the douchbaggery that goes on that sticks in the claw.
The thing I find Ironic from the OP is that he is in a corp that is only about consensual pvp. The lamest pvp model ever.
I can't believe someone would be so butthurt over no longer being able to kill miners with no risk at all. What the hell.
ReplyDeleteI believe that the aggression changes promote pvp in highsec, because now people can shoot you more often, you all want others to experience more risk but when you are the ones that get that risk, you scream like children. Entitled children.
You can still pray on newbs that doesn't know aggresion mechanics, you can till can flip (need a buddy for it though). Mining barges has been easy as hell to gank for way too long and unless they sit in a procurer or skiff, they can still be ganked without too much trouble (they don't fit tank, right?).
I've said it before i'll say it again. He's an agent of the goons.
ReplyDeleteAll New Order pilots are KOS regardless what concord or CCP says. I think he's fanning the flames far too early and i will be voting against him in CSM.
And until the leader of goonswarm...no let me rephrase that. the Leader of the CircleJerk that null sec has become (which is quite frankly WORSE than high sec at the moment in terms of carebearing) Stands up and proves James 315 is banned from all goonswarm servers and factions i have no reason to believe ANYTHING that's been said by him or his agents. Or that this so called new order is nothing but a crock of BS.
While the OP gave a long thought out post and actually highlights a potential problem. The fact of the matter is this. He has no CCP authority. What he does is against concord rules. He's no Savior. In that respect he's exactly like Barrack Obama. And yes since we're going into those kind of conversations i'm going to go there.
His followers are just as fanatical potentially even more so. And what he wants will only enhance the circlejerk collective that null sec has become. Fail thread 1/10.
Thank you, I was hoping a crazy person would tie this all in to real world politics.
Delete-Oink
I dont care what the miner gankers do. It makes me no difference and doesnt affect my game play at all. The miners, however, are nto on the forums crying for changes to the game right now. Its the other element.
ReplyDeleteHow people cant see why neutral players look at the extremes by both sides and think you are all crazy pants.
Also, you are dense if you dont acknowledge that the miner bumping movement is riding a platform of game design change. Sorry if that offends you but that is the truth.
There are FAR more tears and calls for changes to the game now coming from gankers than miners. Far more.
ReplyDeleteHell, the movement and this very thread wants to change the game.
So, because mining barges and exhumers got a boost to their EHP, CCP is moving EvE in the direction of being a carebear campground themepark?
ReplyDeletePull the other one, it's got bells on it.
Both extremes are outta their minds-crazy sometimes to be quite frank.
ReplyDeleteIts mostly personally/playstyle agenda driven as well and never as holistic and benevolent as "saving the game".
Im pretty safe in saying that the majority falls in the middle where they think the game needs the balance of playstyles and offerings to be as successful and fun as it can be.
"Original had gone AFK to get a beer while his Vexor's drones continued their assault of RD's corpmate's Orca."
ReplyDeleteI thought it was against code rules to go AFK? Sounds like bot-aspirant behaviour to me.
This is the first time I’ve felt the miner acted with more dignity than the agent.

I used to serious post. Then I realized I got down voted more when I made posts that disagreed with popular opinion even if what I was saying was completely based in fact. Now I just don't care.
ReplyDeleteYea telling someone to kill themselves that's a ban. James needs to accept the rule of CCP or just quit
ReplyDeleteWhen I go to bed at night I pray that CONCORD just starts firing at every barge so James can just enjoy the game and stop bitching. I mean how pathetic must one be to claim miners are dangerous?
ReplyDeleteI'm not usually one for ad hominem, but I'm not going to read 20 pages worth of text by a guy notorious for writing complete garbage.
ReplyDeleteI would read two, three, hell even five pages of text by just about anyone, but 20 pages by motherfucking James315? Screw that noise.
He even manages to find a way to bitch and whine about that. It's not enough that he got his account reinstated, he's still bent about it because his unbanning was too perfunctory. Dude seriously overestimates the degree to which other people give a shit about him and his antics. Just because you make a spectacle doesn't mean we care.
ReplyDeleteCCP re-ban him pls
ReplyDeleteI would have finished it if James315 had at least pretended to be truly interested in helping EVE and not just upset because he and his cronies were banned...
ReplyDeleteEven in the belligerent undesirables chat long time "villains" were asking: "what after Erotica1 was banned made you think that running bonus rooms was a good idea. That's just dumb."
As someone who was a part of the conversation when FJGS was starting his post-Erotica BRs, I too held the position that it was a pretty foolish idea and he was basically fishing for a ban. However, the way he went about it, focusing purely on the scam with strict rules against any form of tear harvesting, it should have been safe. There's no doubt that this is a dark time for EVE, and CCP is losing sight of their own vision.
ReplyDeletethe blatant "are you feeling harassed" way of going about it was basically thumbing their noses at CCP. It's like putting your finger in a sibling's face and saying "I'm not touching you." Mom is still going to get mad.
ReplyDeleteI think everybody involved just figured that CCP could take a little gentle ribbing like adults, and that if they avoided breaking any actual rules then they would be okay. Unfortunately for them, that turned out not to be the case.
ReplyDeleteThe child who is annoying their sister probably thinks they are very smart because they are not doing what Mom told them not to do....
ReplyDeleteThis comes down to our old friend, Greed. Scammers got greedy and wanted to push at the line. It's their own fault. (I think that's how the scamming rhetoric goes)
I seriously wonder if James is being sincere when he writes these ridiculous walls of text, or if it's a dedicated effort to put on a show. Surely he realizes few people are going to wade through an article that size, especially one from him?
ReplyDeleteSame result though; not reading.
It's all a show. Guys like this want to be the "bad guy" because it gets them attention.
ReplyDeleteIt's not an ad hominem attack. It's an observational fact.
ReplyDeleteSee, a necessary part of an ad hom is that I have no evidence to support the attack. If I can justify the deduction from facts at hand, it's no longer an ad hom.
I disagree, and I will choose what I believe to be the proper response. If you don't like that, I don't care.
See, in my view the long winded article full of supposition and revisionism isn't a valid debate to begin with, so I have no 'proper' response. What do you say to the guy that says the end is near? How about the sky is falling?
Right, you call them an idiot and move on.
The PROPER way to conduct this entire thing was to write an article conveying both sides and pointing out the conflict of interest between those sides. Then the rest of us could debate the relative merits and get somewhere. (somewhere = CCP still doesn't care what you or anyone else thinks)
But since this isn't debate class, I'm not bound by your rules any more than James 315 is bound by facts.
In case you aren't aware, I and many others have written volumes on this subject and you are free to go look at it. We don't all agree, obviously.
If the ultimate point here is "unban" these fine people that add content to the game. Well then I don't care and I'm done with the issue. Good luck, I hope you fail.
If, however, the ultimate point here is "gee, CCP, your GM system is all kinds of fucked up", then lets make that a CSM issue and replace the call center jockeys with people that know and care how eve works.
I'll start.
The GM system for bans should be an open court, with players on the jury. (see RIOT tribunal system) Any banned player should have one free open court session to appeal their ban. PERMABANS should only be possible in egregious circumstances, and only if a super majority of the jury agrees. Call it the court of concord. Obviously you'd have to limit cases, because if certain activity is simply insta-bannable. RMT for example, or major boting (typically done together).
With a system like that, you end up with the EVE the players WANT. I'm not certain that I would consider that an improvement, but it will at least eliminate the question of what the players actually want. Instead of just listening to the noisy few. (cough james315 cough)
The Erotica crew were wrong. They knew what they were doing was wrong. CCP doesn't (and probably shouldn't frankly) have clear rules about where the boundaries of the game are and aren't. This leads to bans or perma-bans (can we really call it that if it lasts less than a year?) where people aren't sure why or what they did. The whole "I don't know what I did wrong cuz you didn't tell me exactly what I could/couldn't do" argument smacks of some extremely immature attempt at getting out of trouble, I think that excuse stopped working for me with my parents when I was like, 7.
ReplyDeleteThe Erotica crew are mad because this gray area doesn't allow for them to operate with impunity, they want clear statements as to why they were banned.
What I got from the article was this sense and hope that if the Erotica crew's bans were explained by CCP there were would be a backlash from the EvE community akin to the monocle debacle and CCP would be forced to admit they were wrong for banning Erotica. He would be some sort of hero for reforming CCP's ways and revered/justified in what he did.
There are a couple of things that appear from either individuals defending Erotica's actions, or in Erotica's article itself that I find disingenuous.
1) CCP needs to explain itself and why they ban people.
ReplyDeleteNo, they don't. No it isn't some sort of gestapo regime if they refuse to do so either. This is a business. This is a private game that they run, not some democratic institution where you get a say in what they do. Nor is it a government responsible for your well being or happiness. Would it be nice if they explained the bans, at least to the banned players, perhaps. But the -only- vote you get as a consumer is if you want to play the game. If you don't, and I don't mean this in a snarky manner, don't play the game. A companies sole responsibility is to make money, if they're not doing this then they might change.
2) We weren't wrong in what we did as we were never told that we couldn't. The variation of this is that "The alleged events, which you can't prove, occurred outside the game and therefore not subject to CCP's rule."
Both of these stem from the same sense that the perpetrators were somehow exempt from discipline due to some combination of either lack of clarity or jurisdiction on CCP's part over where/how the events occurred. The only part I -sort of- agree with here is the jurisdiction element. Where I think though that this crossed the line is when the Teamspeak elements were used to impact entities specifically tied to the game that CCP does have jurisdiction over. The actors used CCPs property to find the victim with the intent to cause damage to the victim within the game itself.
3) Why didn't the victims threats (and to a broader extent all those who type variations of "hope you die") get treated in the same way as either Mittani's statements years back or Erotica's?
I think they should be. Threats shouldn't be tolerated in any sense. These individuals should be banned/suspended as well.
4) The victim had a choice/didn't have to participate, therefor CCP has no right to ban Erotica.
This is a tough one, and I can only say this. The intent of the Erotica crew was to harm the victim. They did this, and then they bragged about it by posting the recordings of it. They knew exactly what they were doing. They like any good con artist slowly removed the victims ability to choose. Let me say this too, they're damn good. I listened to the whole recording and they chose a target smartly, the target responded to their social conditioning in the exact way that was intended, they lied and tricked the victim to get him to where he was. So the intent to harm was there. The knowledge of the harm being done was apparent. You lied and tricked the mark into a series of blind alley choices. Yes, the victim was partly to blame for not seeing this too. But you knew exactly what you were doing the entire time. You knew it was wrong, and you reveled in it.
This leads to my final remark.
CCP, even if they aren't sterling here, isn't some evil organization trampling on kittens that you want people to view them as. You acted out of malice. You wanted to hurt people, you knew you were hurting someone and this is what disgusts people. Because of this, people won't flock to your banner there won't be some grand revolt.
Actually I hope some of the victims share a country with some of the perpetrators and decide to go legal on their asses.
ReplyDeleteHonestly, I have been in EvE since 2006 and some parts of its great community have become more rotten from year to year.
I do not mind proper scams or piracy. Hell, last time a low sec gatecamp got me because of sleep induced incompetence, I paid my pod ransom, congratulated them on the well executed kill and thanked them for their service...
Yet some people in the game these days are just showing traits of mental illness.
Exactly, the real problem is that all these people who partake in questionable activities and complain about risk adverse carebears become quite carebear-ish themselves when they realize that their risking more than just pixels. They need to pull their heads out of their asses and HTFU, just like they tell so many of their targets.
ReplyDeleteExactly. If you aren't doing something questionable in the first place, you don't care about having a hard line or a grey area, you know you aren't doing anything wrong.
ReplyDeleteThe people who want a hard line set are the people who know on some level that what they're doing is wrong, but they want to have a hard line so they can find a loophole and tell themselves what they're doing is ok. It's not about avoiding mistaken bans, it's about trying to get away with something that is likely past the line and they know it.
I don't think anyone is asking for a hard line such that they could space lawyer their way out of any repercussions with a clever argument or shading of the facts. But there needs to be some way to predict in advance whether your actions are acceptable or not. If I invite you onto my comms to sing for your pod, is that a bannable harassment?
ReplyDeleteIf not, wouldn't it be nice to at least have a list of examples from which one might draw inspiration, to get a sense of where the lines lay? So that I might say, it's ok to invite someone onto comms to sing for an in-game reward such as saving their pod, or getting isk, but only for a reasonably short period of time. That would give everyone something to go on, even if it's not a hard line that you could point at and try to lawyer about.
I think it would also be nice to start with temporary suspensions for issues that have never arisen and aren't the subject of any public guidance (since quoting GMs is illegal for some reason.) One might use real-world language to carve out cases that should go right to perma-ban - threats of real-world violence, for example. But if there's never been any consequence to having someone sing on comms, it's a hard nut for the very first punishment to be a perma-ban without any warning or explanation.
James315 is upset because he wants to be able to do what CCP falcon wont allow.
ReplyDeleteIn addition the recollection of the Erotica1/sokhar incident seems very partial according to the recollection I have of it, especially the part with the wife. And he failed to mention the repeated podding in alphaclone. So much for his credibility in his point of view about the Erotica1 copycat doing a "lighter" version of the scam, regularly asking "do you feel harassed?" to the victim, which is a clear case of GM trolling : "I did not cross the line!!!"
With this banwave, I think CCP is pretty much saying that you just cannot do this.
If it's again a guy complaining because he got perma for abusing people on teamspeak then yeah, find another game, we won't miss you.
ReplyDeleteHow the hell does he even have time to play Eve if he's typing out these fucking novels?
ReplyDeleteLOL. Since when did New Order have brains?
ReplyDelete"You may not do anything that interferes with the ability of other EVE Online subscribers to enjoy the game or web site in accordance with its rules...." - TOS 16.
Mining Permit in high sec is a scam, savagely enforced (harassment) on those new pilots who are paying for the game development and prosperity. CCP did the right thing in showing the good example.
And fyi, many have threatened of economy crashing because they were pulled out of the system previously and many more will claim same later. But that's just Griefer Tears
(hahaha!) splashed out loud trying to backfire sympathies. You bunch of
blind donkeys following J315 into perdition only lead to the bittering and non profit of the eve online community.
I hope more mittens, erotica and james get slapped out of this game.
Ty CCP =)
Mining permits are extortion
ReplyDelete...then why do they allow the plethora of POCOs, player-owned structures, and whatever else to exist in their space? Do all of these things exist with CODE's blessing? Does CODE enforce a tribute payment system (a tax) in order to place and operate structures in their space?
ReplyDeleteI'm actually not [necessarily] bashing CODE here. I'm not a miner, and I've never lost anything to CODE to my knowledge. I'm simply saying, you don't truly 'own' highsec... unless and until you actually, well, 'own' it. So if structures and whatever else exist in highsec without your blessing, I would say to CODE - 'get to work.' Start enforcing your will. Back up your claims of highsec ownership. Then my hat will be off to you. Otherwise... not so much.
Attacking player-owned structures requires a wardec. Which costs money. CODE is cheap
ReplyDeleteSeems strange that an owner of space would not charge for using that space. How many null sec corps or alliances allow people to squat in their space? You either control a space, or you don't, right?
ReplyDeleteI find it funny how the "owner" of high sec is still getting his ass handed to him by the "non owner" NPC's of the space he claims to control.
ReplyDeleteIf you control it wouldn't the police be on your side and not blowing your ass up with a 100% kill rate.
CODE doesn't control high-sec. They're not even renters. They're glorified tourists roaming around selling 'maps to the stars'.
ReplyDeleteAs bizarre as it sounds there are people who actually buy into all that Code malarky. But once you figure out the right ships with the right fit then Code killing is about like killing belt rats, just needs a touch more finesse.
ReplyDeleteAbout once a week, someone in CODE will decide the attention-o-meter is getting on the empty side, and they'll make a thread talking about CODE, and about a billion dumbasses will run up in it, all tripping all over themselves to talk about how uninterested in CODE they are.
ReplyDeleteI wish CODE would stop, but that probably won't happen until CCP declares CODE threads like AFK Cloaker threads. More than enough examples of how this entire thread will play out are available to be searched on the forms. At some point, it is okay to stop having the same conversation over and over and over again.
If you named a POCO "Autopiloting Obelisk," do you think CODE. would drop by for a visit?
ReplyDeleteI haven't touched it Dom. I still find EvE to be a bit intimidating. Plus, NITC school started.
ReplyDeleteI didn't say I had a problem with CODE, Dom. I merely said that the... Forum meta is silly, and gives the impression of a circle-jerk.
You're all fun people. You don't need the RP and associated shenanigary.

ReplyDeleteDo we need to start telling people to kill themselves again?

ReplyDeleteThe only hate in this blog comes from the salty anons. The New Order preach a message of respect and tolerance by raping and killing children--for James 315.

ReplyDeleteThat is one mad psycho........
Never forget shardani. Our best agent.
Started mining, I've been hunted down in Highsec countless times by an alliance called "CODE" who send their -10 sec trolls into space to destroy miners. I've gone to Sinq Laision and Essence, they follow miners around blow our stuff up anywhere and run away.
ReplyDeleteI've asked for help in local chat, people respond with "This is EVE". Come on, where can a noob get a break? Ask to join an corp, denied twice. What for? I'm a 10M SP pilot who wants to contribute.
So I move my mining operation elsewhere, stuck in an NPC corp, only to be hunted down by the CODE guys again their troll corp called "New Order Logistics". I laughed hard.
Many of you guys believe that EVE-U, Noob corps and the like are helpful. Not in my books, I've constantly harassed, hunted and pursued in highsec space no matter what I do. I've lost two retrievers and two ventures in 24 hours. I've had it with ATTEMPTING to earn a living in the EVE universe, I'm honestly just starting to make money so I may progress. But nope, it's almost impossible in this game. No noob corp has helped, no noob corp has even accepted my conversation requests. Come on guys, this is me vs the universe here. The fuck is wrong with the EVE community?
Nobody wants a code agent in their corp. It is like asking if a pro wants the clap.
ReplyDeleteGet good at something and don't expect to be given anything. So stop asking for hand outs.

ReplyDeleteYou got the clap, me too.
So true, miner bumping/extortion is the equivalent of being on a playground getting poked by asburger boy and bitching because you refuse to punch him back.
ReplyDeleteGood job Anti-Code, add to the page count of a site that exists just to extract salt from code idiots.

Over 200 comments!
ReplyDeleteBringing content back to this blog.
Keep those comments coming the more the merrier.
What is wrong with all these people who destroy innocent asteroids and think that they could get away with it? -_-
ReplyDeleteMiners are the toughest and most elite players in the game.
The best part of filling up this blog today was I did it while mining too.
ReplyDeleteMiners are the most elite players in the game, they can mine, be vigilant, make money, and scare the shit out of a bunch of punks who will never ever make it in low or null.
Keep em killing themselves, in game of course don't be like agent shardani.
Getting ganked twice by agents in my first week on eve (once when I was afk, the other when they swooped in on me and taught me a brutal lesson) has made my time in New Eden far more enjoyable. I will never buy a permit, but I will also never mine afk, and I will always monitor local like a hawk. Excellent work Agents. :-)
ReplyDeleteKilling themselves.
ReplyDelete"EVE is dying... for a level of respect and praise from the EVE playerbase to the Saviour of Highsec that exceeds even the expectations of said Saviour's Agents--as befits said Saviour's great deeds and contributions to the game."
ReplyDeleteFuck yes!
Praise James 315
Long may he reign!

Lot of very angry carebears posting here.
ReplyDeleteIf you really don't care about the Code as you all often claim, why are you so often here posting?
Praise James 315!
ReplyDeleteSadly I am on a different computer whilst travelling, and don't have my statistics to hand.
ReplyDeleteIs 222 comments (even if most of them are inane copy-paste seizures) a record?
On the off chance that the family can organize it, it's best to back off the requests of our bustling work lives for a week and set aside opportunity to witness and offer the transformational procedure. This Site
