Ellandan Gallix was caught mining ice in a fail-fit Endurance--in Kino of all places! After their round of elite PvP concluded, Agent Lawrence Lawton received a convo request from the miner. An apology, perhaps?
Ellandan immediately protested his innocence, claiming to be a permit-carrying miner. These can be some of the toughest convos to deal with.
Lawrence tried to explain himself, but Ellandan was a bit too huffy to listen.
The rebels cynically claim that a New Order permit means nothing. Actually, our Agents take the permits very, very seriously. Agent Lawrence was eager to straighten things out.
Specifically, Lawrence wanted to straighten the miner out. And while he was at it, he collected evidence of the miner's true nature.
There's a big difference between a Gallant miner and a Goofus who thinks he bought a "get out of jail free" card for 10 million isk. The latter loses his ship and behaves disrespectfully to his superiors, the Agents of the New Order. Ellandan didn't waste any time in proving himself to be a Goofus.
Within seconds of the convo closing, Ellandan made good on his threat to file a petition with the Saviour of Highsec. Ellandan got super lucky. No, he didn't get reimbursed; he got his mail answered in Highsec Miner Grab Bag #148.
As you might recall from said Grab Bag, Ellandan sent Lawrence more evidence of his bad faith. He never intended to be a Code-compliant miner. Not with that attitude.
And as for his reaction to the Grab Bag?
The miner decided to burn more bridges. Actions speak louder than isk: He may have purchased a mining permit, but Ellandan simply wasn't ready to join the New Order family. Highsec is thankful that Agent Lawrence exposed the truth about this miner.
Too many carebears buy permits but then don't even bother to read the code or follow any of the rules.
ReplyDeleteMaybe this miner will make like kalynn and quit. He don't seem very happy in EVE, so why hang around? Hell, being a voluntary target in the world's most notorious PVP sandbox seems like a shit job anyway!
ReplyDeleteAlways!
Further truth that we are a scam and all we do is suck cock and rape little boys nonstop daily!!!!11!!!1!
ReplyDeleteHey I have a suggestion for the blog, can we have a miner grabbag for stuff in the comments section? Or a section of that post devoted to drivel like this. These tears are delicious.
DeleteIt's like being in the ag channel...
DeleteAnon 10:48, it is comments like these that only further prove that Code agents are the good guys. Making light of the rape of children because you were blown up in a space pvp game is fairly sickening.
DeleteThank you agent Lawrence!
ReplyDeleteOnce again, he who loses the least, cries the most.
ReplyDeleteHow entitled are these vermon?
Protip: when you are new, repect the rules and customs of the ruling authorities.
Or get rektd.
Just noticed the new logo. Kinda' cool!
ReplyDeleteAnother broken agreement, another mining permit not honoured by CODE. Shameful, but not surprising.
ReplyDeleteTechnically speaking he should be able to easily warp out in his endurance... but hard to do when you are not at the keyboard.
DeleteI'm so disappointed in this miner. Her understanding of the underlying principles of The Code is painfully lacking for someone who's considered a regular around here.
DeleteI'm tempted to explain the situation so even Ehnea could understand it.. But it would be better if she asked some agents to gank her over and over again, so she could learn the proper, natural way.
It was the miner (and *only* the miner) who didn't honor the permit.
DeleteShameful, but not surprising.
If you follow the code you are literally immune to ganks in HS. Such a simple concept that, of course, is lost on most carebears.
