Isk is isk, though. Salah purchased 5,000 additional shares, which took us past the 1,579, 1,580, 1,581, 1,582, and 1,583 billion isk marks and earned him a Quintuple Supreme Protector's Tip of the Hat™. Kudos.
BONUS!
Burn Jita came to a close. It brought many killmails in its wake--and many tears.
(Of course, the extent to which CCP welcomes such tickets is up for debate.)
Carebears never miss a chance to shed tears, even in the midst of such a joyous occasion as Burn Jita.
Usually it's the Agents of the New Order who are called upon to correct the carebears' misconceptions about the rules of EVE...
...But a CCP dev will do in a pinch.

Agent Pure Whyte sent a full report on Burn Jita, with plenty of links to videos and images of the event:

Burn Jita has been an annual event since 2012. The carebears still haven't learned. Why? Because they're bot-aspirants, that's why.
CCP Guard laying the smack down on the cry babies. Glorious.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I love it when Guard reminds them there are players they (the devs) Do Not Want in EVE.
DeleteLike the millennial scum that have seemed to pop up in droves lately, and think hisec is safe.
It ain't, and it was never supposed to be.
I believe you mixed up generation Y with millennials, a common mistake.
Delete"The carebears still haven't learned. Why?"
ReplyDeleteIt surely isn't Burn Jita, which happens so infrequently that most industrialists either just dock up or can easily replace whatever they lost in a manner of hours. And it surely isn't Jamey and his CHODE. slaves. They have proven to be irrelevant to the vast, vast majority of EO High Sec denizens. Just navel-gazing posts on sub-standard blog.
Hey what about that time thomas en faileaux got rekt by PL on reddit XD XD
ReplyDeleteLol en faileaux
Deleteahahahahahahha
"It's funny because it's true!"
"Salah ad-Din al-Jawahiri" ... how about that. I always thought the CODE roleplay had an ISIS ring to it...
ReplyDeleteTo the extant you bother to think at all...you thought wrong.
DeleteMoron.
how I love stirring up a hornet's nest here
DeleteSo, Mining Andres did not get banned for making real life threats against Chance Ravinne / WingspanTT in "Going South".
ReplyDeleteSalah was unable to kick me, such is my devotion to The Code.
