Highsec Miner Grab Bag #80

When you ask a miner if they can speak English, you might want to be more specific.


...Because they may only know Miner English.


Riggy Lancer demanded reparations, or else he'd have someone bring down New Order Logistics or even the whole of CODEdot. Absurd. No one has someone who can do that.


Impressive EVEmail/username combo.


...But not all miners believe I can save them from themselves. It's not unanimous yet, but we're getting closer.


A suggestion to all the carebears out there: Don't try sarcastically praising our Agents. They're too used to receiving genuine, earned praise. Your sarcasm might get lost in the mix.


Some miners say that without miners, we wouldn't have any ships. They love to play the martyr, as if we benefit from other players doing boring work. But if they're so altruistic that they perform thankless drudgery in a video game, why do they suddenly become so selfish when we ask for 10 million isk?


Unlicensed carebear Verik dra'Har reported that the contents of his MTU were confiscated by Agent Revis Owen. Verik recommended that Revis be fined 10 times the value of the goods. I rejected the advice. Instead, Revis gets a hi-five.


You know what grinds my gears? Gearbox Pedel refused to acknowledge the PvP prowess of our Agent, despite witnessing it first-hand. Fortunately, Myevil Gankalt was prepared to use logic to fix Gearbox's misconceptions about the game:


Gearbox attempted to build a retort of his own, but logic wasn't in his toolkit.


EVE legend loyalanon took some time out of his busy day to congratulate fellow PvP participant Falk Kaundur on a fight well fought. However, the miner wasn't yet calm enough to appreciate it.


Falk really lucked out. loyalanon was willing to wait for the miner to calm down. It would be a tragedy if Falk missed out on an opportunity have an intelligent conversation with a highsec celebrity.


Alas, the stars were not aligned. Falk wasn't at his best that day.


Don't knock the New Order permit system 'til you try it. Pessimism kills.

  4. So ming goes to the doctor and tells the doctor "Every time i touch myself anywhere it hurts"
    The doctor asks him to show him what he means. Ming touches his chest and screams in pain, then he touches his knee and wimpers out loud, then finally he touches his ankle and almost passes out from the pain. The doctor looks at him and says "Dumbass, your finger is broken."

    2. You cannot attack compliant miners, anon, for you are not capable of learning such a skill. If you were, you would have done so already. Your "threat" is just as non-threatening as every single miner claiming to have a nullsec PVP alt.

      You're a liar and a carebear, and until you accept The Code into your heart, that won't ever change.

  6. I can't believe I'm going to give an idea to code, but oh well.
    I'm amazed that no one from code thought about reimbursing a miner for a gank just once for the spin story value of it. Could even give a mining permit as the reimbursement instead of the value of their ship that they lost to the gank. If nothing else it would be good propaganda that code could use after.

    1. It's happened before. Contrary to what the anti-ganking crowd would have you think, we don't gank compliant permit-holders. I've seen a couple Retrievers reimbursed in my day. I don't think I can cite sources, as I don't think that's ever been featured on the blog, but the blog only covers the tip of the iceberg in terms of what goes on within the New Order.

    2. I reimbursed a retriever just the other day. He had just bought a permit from another agent when II'm killed him and had a good attitude about it, so he got 30mil.

      Also, though I can't speak for every single agent, I can honestly say that I honor permits, and so does every other agent I know personally.

  7. brilliant work today watching the AG crowd fail to stop code again. I would have thought they would have given up by now but they must enjoy losing against the highsec pvp kings

    1. It was a good show in Uedama today. I liked the part where they thought they won and we just crushed them under the weight of more brutixes and taloses.

      And then they pretended they won because they cost us money. As if we have limited funds.

      That was fun. Good times.

  8. So i'm a lawyer, teaparty activist, and C&P troll. I got bored and socially isolated when I started to oppose the Code and now I stopped logging in. Eve was really only fun when I farmed lvl4 missions and did afk incursions (yeah that's a thing). Eve is too hard for me and i'm going to go ahead and quit.
