The Horror of Elitist Capsuleers and What They've Stolen from the People

Let me get this straight then: You dont know what it is which means you are distributing without a legal pilot license in the first place. That makes any distribution a theft in itself - which is what you claim the other pilots do. If i have ever seen a paradoxon then it must be this

Thatā€™s what a Plex is? I usually have the accoutants handle the ISK for the pilot license renewal. I never knew the process. Nice. Thanks for the info.

Well, for the full version, lemme just refer you back here. But to keep you from having the click too much, Iā€™ll reproduce a fair bit of it hereā€¦ with updates, because in the last 22 months, life is life, and things never stay quite the sameā€¦ even if job titles do.

RepSwarm Lead:
In YC 117, I got a little tired of anchoring the logistics for over 150 fleets a month every time a shooting war started. So I established RepSwarm, the Imperiumā€™s Fleet Logistics Special Interest Group. Our job is ā€˜simpleā€™:

  • Provide FCs with skilled, reliable logistics wings. We achieve this by
    • Training logistics pilots in order to ensure that every logi pilot in the Imperium has a solid grounding in not just ā€˜target screaming fleet member, start repsā€™, but how logi actually work, and the principles that go into how we perform during combat.
    • Training logistics anchors to understand the reasons and purposes behind things the regular logi pilots donā€™t necessarily need to keep in mind, including positioning, the hows and whens of different anchoring formations, information management, and most importantly, herding cats.

With over a thousand dedicated logi specialists, and fully half of those now experienced with anchoring logi in fleets, Iā€™m reasonably confident in saying Iā€™ve been incredibly successful at my job. Especially when I watch how our enemiesā€™ logistics wings move and perform in combat. They struggle to get numbers sufficient to their fleet size, they move in easily-predicted, easily killed waysā€¦ theyā€™re a mess, and frankly, some of them are even worse than the performance Iā€™ve seen in low-sec and faction warfare groups.

Director, Goonswarm Federationā€”Fitting Team
Hierarchy-wise, this is technically the more important job, but letā€™s face it, on a day-to-day basis, this oneā€™s fire-and-forget. We design doctrines, and then donā€™t have to pay any attention to them for months on end until the strategic situation shifts. Still, Iā€™m the poor bastard who has to put on pants and sit in on the Directorate meetings, so I suppose I should mention the gig.

Heh. Yeah, thatā€™s it. By paying attention to the words you blurt out when youā€™re not scripted, Iā€™m twisting things. Simple fact there, kiddo: the things you say when you donā€™t take the time to be careful are the most honest. If I could get you drunk, Iā€™d trust those words, even more.

Donā€™t waste your time responding to that CODE idiot, Arrendis. Itā€™s just another ganktard yapping on about nothing.

Hmm, well allow me to retract previous snarkiness and color me impressed. You may, indeed, be worth listening to, at least a bit. I may have to modify any advice given to suit our needs, though.

I should probably also fire the researcher of your file. Thatā€™s not good intel. ā€œMatari Sympathizer.ā€ Never trust a racist Amarrian, am I right?

Nope, thatā€™s not my definition of twisting at all.

I would say that itā€™s the fact that youā€™re regurgitating a subjective retelling of the narrative in a way that suits your beliefs and the social caste system. I wasnā€™t really faulting you for it so much as pointing out the false narrative you were trying to portray.

We.
Are.
Not.
CODE.

We just donā€™t disagree with them and wanted to help them pursue their agenda by using our personal funds, not those generated by the Alliance, to pay for the proper high-sec mining permits.

The enemy of our enemy are our friends in this case.

Yes, they absolutely kill capsuleers whoā€™s ships are manned by the people that we seek to nurture and protect from the vile misdeeds being committed on them by the onerous elitists.

Change never comes without loss. Not real change. Real change is typically forged in blood and steel, since the beginning of every empire.

However, Club Zer0, the executor corp for the Zer0 Enterprises alliance, is a pacifist organization. We do not kill, ever, unless it is in self-defense or an imminent threat is perceived. We donā€™t engage with any pilot on the field unless they specifically request taxes from us or attempt to intervene in our operation. Then we employ non-violent techniques to discourage this behavior.

If they die, it means they didnā€™t pay for the proper mining permits. Thatā€™s a business issue of the individual. Itā€™s not as if we have CODE. on speed dial or they respond to our commands. Again, and louder for the people in back, we are not them. They are not us.

So, we will practice our own brand of anarcho-socialism and we take what is due to the people. Nothing more, nothing less. Please, by all means, continue to mine in peace. Everyone stays out of our way, we stay out of theirs. This whole thing is just public notice of that reality.

Mostly what I do in terms of the Amarr/Minmatar conflict is provide a few billion ISK every week back to the Clan.

There are two enemies of freedom, freedom by system and freedom by force.
Freedom by system uses laws to oppress those beneath, and freedom by force advocates might makes right.
Both evils are endorsed by Code and their degenerate cultists.
How can any decent soul support them?
Elitists are a problem, why are you supporting the worst of them all?
All tyrants, must be slain.
Amarrian Slavers, Caldari coporates, Sansha despots and Code cultists.
They make no difference, all they deserve is guillotine.

As I said, racist Amarrian researcher needs to go.

Poor fellow, no-one is listening to him.

They.
Are.
Not.
CODE.

They.
Are.
Some.
Other.
Random.
Pirate.
Collective.

Nobody.
Gives.

See, what youā€™re doing here is trying to project your moral code as something superior to others. It isnā€™t. Morality is also subjective.

Loss will happen in order to achieve a goal. Sacrifice must be made. Thereā€™s no way around it.

Plainly, it was a business decision in order to provide a more stable platform from which to accomplish our goals.

Paint it as you will. Itā€™s of no concern to us or our belief system.

Truly, life is suffering.

I am confused, Arrendis. Which are you supposed to be? A Matari Sympathiser (or is that Matari Synthesizer?) or a rascist Amarrian reseacher (and is that a researcher from Amarr who is rascist, or a researcher of rascist Amarrians)?

Who are you?

Moral superiority?
I do not consider myself superior by any chance, for superiority itself is evil.
The Code. cultists seem to be teeming with their disgusting gloss of superiority themselves.
Sansha is to a machine and Code is to flesh.
Both cults must be purged.

Then why, pray, are you being so very vocal about it?

Then weā€™re in agreement. Your moral code is not our moral code and that makes little difference in the overall scheme of things. Be appalled if you wish. Thatā€™s good publicity.

Am I to understand that you assert an established loudmouth protection racket, and a new loudmouth mining corporation (both incidentally operated by capsuleers), are a salve to the excesses of capsuleers?

Because, dear simpleton, it is a public notice so that capsuleers are aware. A public service announcement, if you will. Do you even PR?

Oh dear. I rather prefer not to point out someoneā€™s social faux pas, but etiquette rather dictates one ought to enquire politely and discreetly with more experience solicialites if one is not entirely sure of a personā€™s identity.
