Highsec Cyberspace Law, Part 2

Previously, on MinerBumping... After illegal miner jollena Khema lost her Mackinaw, she aired her grievances with Agent Arden Elenduil. jollena threatened to get the entire New Order banned. Arden wasn't impressed--until jollena revealed the true extent of her power: She was a cyberspace paralegal!
jollena Khema > quit spinning something that you cannot win here, i'm a paralegal, and hold a MS from St. Norberts University in wisconsin for Information Security & Cyber Security (that includes specific classes in IT laws).
Arden Elenduil > And it is still the game developers that have the final word
jollena Khema > devs may set the general rules but for specific cases like this one....... i'm sure i'll win
With her education and experience with highsec space law, jollena could bring down the New Order once and for all. Even CCP devs would be bent to her will.
Arden Elenduil > I'm actually quite convinced of the opposite
jollena Khema > CODE and its affilates don't "own" hi-sec space, nor can they enforce their will upon those who have no interest in CODE or its affialtes beliefs.
Arden Elenduil > code can claim ownership, and if they can enforce it in the environment of highsec, then that's perfectly fine
Arden Elenduil > in lowsec or wormhole space, one can't "claim" space in the way nullsec alliances can
Arden Elenduil > but they enforce their rule
jollena was supremely confident in her legal training, but Arden was equally confident in the power of the Code. And he, too, had an impressive highsec education: The school of MinerBumping. He destroyed jollena's "can't own highsec" argument in a flash.
jollena Khema > the law of nullsec and what was 0.0: shoot first and you don't have to ask questions later
Arden Elenduil > in highsec it's the same, it's just that the rules of engagement and ways of enforcing are different
Arden Elenduil > anyone can grab a catalyst and go on a rampage in the belts
Arden Elenduil > shooting first and not bothering to ask questions later
jollena Khema > just because your propaganda says so doesn't make it so
jollena was taken completely by surprise. It was obvious she hadn't been keeping up with the latest MinerBumping literature. Big mistake.
Arden Elenduil > it's approved gameplay by the developers themselves
jollena Khema > i won't speak ill of the devs, although their not very keen on every potential consequence of a decision
jollena Khema > every policy has unintended consequences, their not immediate but its there
Arden Elenduil > and what would you call the unintended consequences of this situation?
jollena Khema > allowing CODE and its affiliates free reign to do as they wish whenever
jollena Khema > CODE's behavior is an example of unintended consequences of a policy
Arden won the first round, but jollena wouldn't give up without a fight. The space law debate continued.
Arden Elenduil > wardecs, in effect, are also non consensual pvp
Arden Elenduil > would you ban wardecs aswell?
jollena Khema > wardecs are part of the game and that is accepted, what isn't is having to pay for a "permit" to enjoy a specific part of this game
jollena Khema > your code doesn't state those who pay will have 100% immunity of being killed either......... no diffrent than a randsom wardec
Arden Elenduil > the code does promise safety from code ganks (and only code ganks) IF those that purchased the permit adhere to the code
Arden Elenduil > if they are spotted violating the code, their permit will be revoked immediately
jollena Khema > nothing says that they can be called AFK just for the sake of ganking them, tell me how does killing a bunch of miners make your kill boards look wonderful?
Arden continued to gain ground. In desperation, jollena injected some sarcasm. But things weren't looking good for the anti-Order space lawyer. She was losing on her own turf.
jollena Khema > i played that bull@#$% game comming back from low-sec on my other account the jackass started blasting me while the game was transitioning me to hi-sec
Arden Elenduil > eh, what do you mean?
jollena Khema > he thought i was an easy target because i had been "AFK" but insted was waiting the ms lag to "gate" into another starsystem
Arden Elenduil > what did you lose?
jollena Khema > about 300 isk for repairs
Out of nowhere, jollena complained about someone causing her to spend 300 isk during a routine jump. Yes, a carebear will even complain about losing 300 isk in PvP. Now you see why a 10 million isk permit is such an obstacle for many.
jollena Khema > as for my death i wasn't bumped as is custom and law by your agents, they just showed up and blasted away
Arden Elenduil > could you please link your killmail?
jollena Khema > Kill: jollena Khema (Mackinaw)
jollena Khema > Kill: jollena Khema (Capsule)
Arden Elenduil > and you say this happened on a gate?
jollena Khema > no that happened in Aydoteaux
Arden Elenduil > ah, so they were 2 completely unrelated events?
jollena Khema > yes
jollena Khema > i didn't even have time to warp out let alone get my engines online
Despite her legal skills, jollena was beginning to sound like every other two-bit bot-aspirant in highsec. It was the old "not enough warning" complaint. Even her zero-align-time Capsule couldn't get out before being shot.
jollena Khema > your code also requires your "victims" to be bumped to verify their afk, this didn't happen.... thus the problem
Arden Elenduil > actually, that's not true
Arden Elenduil > some decide to give a few warning bumps
Arden Elenduil > others instantly decide to gank
Arden Elenduil > however, the bumps and convos are "courtesies"
jollena Khema > yeah and that is a problem for me, see your gank squads just kill without care and without reguard for your code of honor
jollena Khema > i don't need a stinking permit to fly let alone live in hi-sec, what part of that don't you get...... CCP dev's didn't write in their rules that James 315's laws are final and those who don't pay for protection will be destroyed
jollena put the whole system on trial. Unless the EULA said people could be ganked for not having a permit, she wouldn't buy one.
jollena Khema > and those that do pay for protection aren't guarenteed 100% saftey even when you do follow them
Arden Elenduil > the only place in eve that is 100% safe is inside the station
jollena Khema > again undeclred corp war randsom
Arden Elenduil > sorry?
jollena Khema > only diffrence is your not targeting a corp your targeting the mining community
jollena Khema > i'm getting bored to death of trying to help you understand this shouldn't have happened as CODE doesn't OWN hi-sec space, and let your friends know that i'll be bringing along much heavier firepower to protect my assets in the field
At last, the legal argument was over. Not because Arden won every point, mind you, but because jollena was getting bored. (A wise MinerBumping reader will see through this diguise, as highsec mining is far more boring!) Having been out-spacelawyered, jollena appealed to the law of the jungle. She would unleash her most powerful ship against the Order.
Arden Elenduil > would you mind giving me a sneak peak as to what said heavier firepower is?
jollena Khema > no but its going to be much bigger than really cheap Catalyst your suicide squad uses
Arden Elenduil > also, code has laid its claim over highsec
jollena Khema > only because you've frightened everyone into paying but me
Arden Elenduil > and i take it you're an experienced pvper?
jollena Khema > i am
Arden Elenduil > i've looked up your character on the killboards
jollena Khema > you know my charecter, but not the other account i've got
jollena Khema > the other "box" has ships on it that would and should frighten your gank squads
Not for the first time, a carebear suddenly claimed to be a skilled PvP'er. Not the character she was speaking with, of course. That character could do nothing but mine in highsec.
Arden Elenduil > well, you see, i have a bit of an issue, well issue's a big word, with boasts such as that
Arden Elenduil > the line "other account/other character" has been used so wearily often
Arden Elenduil > that it simply holds no credibility anymore
jollena Khema > the other charecter is cloaked, and nukes your gank squad the second they fire upon the miner
jollena Khema > just one painful idea you can face
jollena Khema > if i could bring the dread into the system your gank squad would run wetting itself like little 3 yr old scared
The former Mackinaw pilot spun visions of terror. Her cloaked ships could appear anywhere, at any time. And only the limitations of highsec kept her mighty dreadnought fleet at bay.
Arden Elenduil > question: what is the max number of targets of a properly fitted dreadnaught?
Arden Elenduil > max number of ships you can lock
jollena Khema > with my skills i can only take on 4 at a time
Arden Elenduil > aaaand busted
Arden Elenduil > you don't even have a dread
Arden Elenduil > how do i know this? because a properly fitted dread can lock a maximum of 2 targets with a tech 1 siege module, and 3 with a tech 2
Arden Elenduil > and this is a hard limit
jollena Khema > even hard limits have an exception
Arden Elenduil > do tell
jollena Khema > now i grow bored of dealing with a person who wants to controll the universe through fear and terror. Enjoy your time of "control" as it is quickly dissapearing. "Die Quick, often, and poor"
jollena terminated the conversation. As she flounced away, she warned that the New Order's victory was fleeting. Eventually, however, she must have received a response to her petition. CCP wasn't going to ban the New Order for ganking her Mackinaw.


...Which left only one alternative. If you can't beat us (and you can't), join us.

    1. "even hard limits have an exception"

      *sarcasm* Yeah, CCP goes out of their way to give a highsec carebear miner an advantage on a ship that is (mostly) used to shot POS's in low-/nullsec so they can scare away ganking catalysts. *sarcasm off*

      Ho-boy, some people's sense of entitlement know no bounds.

  2. Ahh, dang.

    I was hoping for a part three- where we see jollena Khema fight back with cloaked ships like in "Predator" and Arden Elenduil would have to cover his catalysts with mud to defeat her heat vision.

    Oh well.

    Also: jollena Khema has a master's degree yet doesn't know the difference between "their" and "they're". Good job St. Norberts University! They're giving their students a great education over there!

  4. *wipes away tears of joy*

    The ending was so beautiful. Bravo Code! Bravo Arden!

    And mostly, Bravo to the the literary virtuoso that continues to add their high quality writing skills to this blog each and every day. Minerbumping and the exploits of the Code's Heroes are truly what makes Eve a game worth subscribing too.

    Now hear this, I pledge to *legally* mine 1 Billion ISK worth of goods so that I may transfer said ISK into something truly valuable, Shares of the New Order. It is the least I can do, to give back to an organization that selflessly raises the quality of living within High-Sec.

    And I fully expect to have the Code enforced upon me should I deviate from the law and order set forth by the Code, and will happily exclaim "GF" in local should I be terminated.

    2. Yes, art (literature, cinema, music, code enforcement, etc) is capable of moving people to tears.

      The only thing that would be sad is if I took to heart anything you and your ilk had to say. You can barely even communicate in a coherent manner.

    3. Normally a family, good relationships and adoring children bring people tears of joy but you get yours from code? Good for you but it makes you a very sad, depressed, self loathing individual with no life and you are to be pitied. Is that clear enough for you?

      Delete
    4. Those things are also capable of causing joy. Thanks for stating the obvious.

      I was being facetious (but still extremely proud), which I would think is also obvious, but the AG community isn't known for their intelligence. Besides, I am unable to cry.

      Instead of being born, you should have been aborted. Trust me, the world would have been a better place without you.

  21. You know we should really make bingo cards or something given the amount of times I've heard those comments thrown at the CODE guys. It's funny yet kinda sad that carebears constantly try to judge CODE enforcers by a metric they themselves fail utterly at.

    For the record, and so people understand where I'm coming from when I say what I'm about to say, I'm a member of one of the larger pirate alliances in lowsec. We live and breath pvp every time we log in and you know what, I have nothing but respect for CODE and what they do. I think its a sign of a healthy sandbox that devious minds can still find a niche to work out of and find the obnoxious whining and rampant hypocracy of the AG crowd to be tedious at best and at worst its downright nauseating.
