> [@God\_Emperor\_Kane](#): > > I don’t think anybody needs a statue. No one needs a statue. Still, there are some people’s personas that kinda fit with one. James 315 clearly is one, as is yours for that matter. But as to the OP, writing so many coherent words, so regularly for so long is a feat worth noting regardless of your thoughts on his impact in the game which, as a leader/figurehead/symbol are going to be open to interpretation and debate. But by almost all metrics the Code and the CODE. alliance did notable things over the years, making an impact in New Eden way above their numbers, and inertia means this likely will continue. Or if not, as Kane said, it will be because there is a new banner for content creators to rally under. And to be honest, James’ opus to miner tears is more than complete. Every flavour of butthurt and bad behaviour is represented, several times over. Scholars have more than enough material to work with for years to come. James 315 can take a breather (especially now that CCP has reversed course on the carebear pandering), and if and when the time comes for a second act, he can pick up right where he left off. ---

No kidding I used to co-run it lol Just making the point that it takes a full dummie to either pay or get ganked. It is so silly easy to avoid, it should barely be worth mentioning. So my point stands, Ive been fine for nearly 10 years without it lol Ive been paid by code members to leave them alone because I made their ganking to difficult lol. I guess you could say I sold ganking permits. Mine were per month though and not that cheap xD ---

10 years on many accounts without getting ganked. I think Im fine with my statement lol And you can doubt it all you want. Doesnt make it any less true. I had a good grasp on Ued back in the day. Those ganks were not free after I proved how annoying I could be to them. I use the word annoying intentionally. Stopping a gank on a dummie cant be done. But you can force them to have to bring more toons or more expensive ships/fits and then pod them so they have to spend some more time getting ready for the next one. Add to that catching a few loot grabbers or ninja the loot yourself and you can become annoying enough that they’ll pay you to stop being that annoying. There is no shame in that, its just economics. If paying me was cheaper than the alternative then thats what you do. ---

I’ve never liked CODE mainly because of their extortion racket, I can’t see how they could sink lower than that. Not that it actually effected me, although I still didn’t like it in principle and it wouldn’t surprise me if this game lost players because of it.
