I think I’m the only one that knows what’s going on, but I dare not speak on it. Miners/Anti Gankers are so stupid ![1000003398](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/4/2/3/4236c58a085899b46588cb5b6ad3e370e084da43.gif) ---

> [@Murder\_Maid](#): > > I think I’m the only one that knows what’s going on, but I dare not speak on it. One of the things I love most about EVE is that all sorts of things go on…in the background. Its like a big spider web of interactions. I’ve even had to balance having chars in two different alliances that hate each other. But at the same time, those mortal enemies build stuff like the TTT…so is the hate just a show ? Anyone who hasn’t found themselves in that element of the game…well they have missed half the game 🙂 ---

I agree 100%. But if what’s going on Is what I think is going on, this elevates Aikos status not diminish it. ---
