> [@Destiny\_Corrupted](#): > > So your strategy is to put together many tiny miner brains to get one average-sized one? No my strategy is to lead by example, and get people to stop cowering. I went to Uedama today in a puny Condor, fully expecting to be demolished…instead I scored by first kill ( of many ). Oppressed miners should fight back…they should stop cowering. ---

So your pilot there is ganking antigankers then? /That npc you claim to be a player had collided with a Safety officer causing that Destroyer belonging to a real player to lose control and crash into the JuunigaishiStargate just a few days ago. ---

The last time Aiko’s pod malfunctioned it had caused a shockwave that blacked out nullsec and was felt right across all of New Eden. ---

Lol…well I tried to message Githany to get NEPF to set my alt to blue before I entered Uedama but my message was declined. So…I arrived 70km from the gate, saw several flashies amongst 15 or so ships, and went for one of them. Just as well I had the Condor with its high speed. Shot from 20km…and hit. To be honest I was surprised I got out alive, let alone with a kill. Going to Uedama from Oipo was a spur of the moment thing, and on the way there I was expecting to be scrammed and destroyed as soon as I entered Uedama. But, my Condor is now safely parked in Uedama and I went back to Oipo in a shuttle. ---

Now the whole truth comes out which is good and thank you for filling in the blanks. It also indicates that your killer instinct is that simular to a cat and would pounce at any flashy thing. ---

That’s quite a long story about the time you shot an empty pod. Can you imagine if every other EvE player would spam the forums with every meaningless action? What’s next, an update on your skill queue progress? ---

As I am not in NEPF anyway, though I have set them to good standing, ‘friendly fire’ being blocked would not occur…so I could well end up shooting anti-gankers ‘by mistake’. ---

Doesn’t seem to prevent your colleagues spamming the forum with their tales of ganking a 21 day old noob in a defenceless Venture with a 400 DPS Catalyst. I’m just about the only forum member who _hasn’t_ actually posted an OP on the subject of ganking 🙂 You’re just miffed that I’m active in the heart of your little empire. Get used to it ! ---

I don’t know what you are talking about, but if someone else is spamming, that certainly doesn’t justify your own inane spam. Regardless, if we estimate the value of a Venture at 500,000 isk, then ganking a single Venture is about 50 times more interesting than everything you’ve ever done. ---

Yes, I’m sure everyone is super excited to hear about your pod kill. Please, tell us more about the empty pod and your epic PvP battle. I heard there are already seventeen Reddit threads and four Youtube videos about this glorious moment in EvE history. Great content! ---

I make it two days in a row that I’ve now trounced around Uedama without your guys catching me. Even got a kill, right under the nose of your scout. I realise how embarrassing that must be. ---

> [@Cilla\_Cybin](#): > > and on the way there I was expecting to be scrammed and destroyed as soon as I entered Uedama. Who, exactly, do you think would possibly care about a condor in Uedema, or really anywhere. I’m so intrigued by your rock solid belief that your existence is somehow at the core of other people’s gameplay. I just can’t decide if it’s endearing, or obnoxious, or some weird mix. I mean, good for you for enjoying the game and having fun, that’s all that really matters and you seem to be enjoying yourself. At the same time, I almost feel like I’m watching a 6 year old who has this crazy fantasy planned out and they are running around fighting dragons in their head and no one else knows what they’re doing or is paying any attention. Either way I guess it doesn’t bother me so go get those dragons girl! ---

In think the fact that _so few_ noobs actually post here means that one misses that it is _necessary_ for noobs to see every single thing as a step towards ruling the entire universe. The 95% who give up in the first few months are precisely those who cannot conjure up any dramatic fantasy…and who thus lose any reason for even being in Eve. I’ve encountered quite a few noobs who were bored with Eve…and I ask myself, is it Eve that is boring…or them. As for believing my existence is at the heart of everyone else’s gameplay, heck…6 months on this forum and its a case of ‘when in Rome…’ 🙂 ---

?If it is me personally? then you are correct. I would prefer to shoot and kill your ship and pod… I prefer you retain the status of filthy unpermitted miner so that anyone can spot you for what you are. Aiko and her divine mercy offers you the option for you to rise above your disgusting reality and ascend to the status of citizen, or citizen warrior/agent in defense of her beautiful space. PRAISE AIKO!
