Face Off

So, you think you're a New Order ace? Time for a pop quiz, then. Try to guess what kind of ship loss led to the following reaction:


...

Pencils down before you look at the next screenshot.

...


Yes, for some reason, they do tend to be the worst. If you guessed Retriever, you're probably feeling like a hotshot right now. Don't get too puffed up, though, dear reader.


Agent Liek DarZ responded to a routine call. The Code violation was committed by zaza Shimaya, who took nearly 20 minutes to return to his keyboard.


Another hostile miner--no surprise there. Agent Liek has helped countless miners with zaza's attitude, so he was still feeling pretty confident.


At first, Liek stuck to his prepared materials. Then the miner drove the whole conversation straight off the rails.


Despite having "played" EVE for more than seven months, zaza believed he was entitled to absolute immunity in highsec. If zaza was going to act like a clueless newbie, our Agent would have to treat him like one. Liek cited the official New Pilot FAQ.


Whatever else he was, zaza was candid. He admitted that he didn't care what the actual rules were or what CCP said about the game.


Seven months into EVE, zaza finally learned there's no PvE-only section of the game. No one cared enough about zaza to tell him. No one, that is, except an Agent of the New Order. Was this the beginning of an unlikely friendship?


Liek had established enough of a rapport with zaza to get him to confess another crime: The miner had been 100% AFK at the time of the gank. Liek already knew this, of course, but it's always nice to get a confession on the record.


Once again, zaza threatened to kill our Agent. Liek gently nudged the miner toward compliance with the EULA. If zaza got permabanned for making real-life death threats, there would be no way to sell him a mining permit.


Unfortunately, it seemed zaza's thirst for revenge could not be quenched merely by getting on a CONCORD killmail of one of Liek's Catalysts. He wanted to take Liek's face... off.


zaza was unusually toxic, even for a Retriever pilot. Liek had to wonder if the miner had been hanging out with Anti-Gankers. Where else would he learn to behave this way?


Liek had done his best to interpret zaza's comments as being consistent with the EULA. But zaza wasn't interested in veiling his threats with the slightest bit of ambiguity. That having been said, with his latest threat, one could argue that zaza promised to make Liek a star.


zaza conceded that his comments violated the EULA. However, he blamed our Agent for pushing him over the cliff. Ganking a 30 million isk Retriever was simply too provocative an act not to result in real-life death threats. Agent Liek exited the conversation in the hopes that the miner, if left by himself, would eventually calm down.

Then fate intervened.


Agent TheInternet TweepsOnline TheInternet has recently been mass EVEmailing miners who show up on the CODE. killboard. Unaware of zaza's bad temperament, TheInternet saw the Retriever kill and sent zaza a form EVEmail message:
Dear Capsuleer,

I am contacting you in my official capacity as a CODE. Alliance Diplomat. It has come to our attention that you have recently lost a ship. While it is likely that an Agent from our Enforcement Branch has already contacted you about your loss, the Diplomatic Team is following up nonetheless.

We would like you to understand that your relationship with the New Order doesn't have to be adversarial. Here is my offer: I will personally sell you a mining permit for 10m ISK. I would be your point of contact with the New Order from that point forward. This means you will have a friend inside CODE. who can give you good security advice and help you if you encounter any difficulty...
Would more death threats ensue?


Ah, you didn't expect that this would end with a permit sale, did you? Next time, don't be too quick to feel like you're a hotshot. Highsec still has much to teach you.

  2. Another victory for the New Order! The illiterate miner has been punished for his bot-aspirancy, publicly shamed and humiliated over his aggressive outbursts, then guided into Code compliance by Agent Tweeps’ community outreach efforts.

  6. I'm suspicious. TheInternet is a model of reticence and good form; how come zaza's permit magically takes on the formatting we saw earlier in the exchange? Only the month and date escaped the caps lock.

    Invite me to shut up if you like, but I'm eagle-eyed when it comes to signs of miner insincerity..

    1. Hey shut-up anon, you can post your tears now.

  7. It's cute the way you ganker asshole think that bullying people is good for eve. This post just shows that CODE needs to change direction and seperate it self from idiots like TNT. If "agemts' will talk to a miner before blowing them up you would have a lot more followers and less of this antisocial behavior.

    TNT and specificly "Lady Ati" and her ganking crew are making all gankers look bad. They try to troll me Hageken and on other forums and sites but they fail hard LOL! They are the lowest form of troll pvp player, only killing defenceless miners! Its sad that TNT looks so bad with all those miner kills in their record. A real alliance would live in nul/low and pvp with real pvpers.

    I am curious why "Sonny Chavez" is trying so hard to make me mad, he should know by now that you cant make me mad LOL! He calls everything "tears" but I am not crying, I never cry over a game or bow to a girl in game! Lady the farm girl will never be able to beat me in game or out. She is just a stupid girl that cant take it if she cant use her womanly ways to make you play her way. I wonder how she talks people into doing something as low as suicide ganking. She must be giving something away! LOL!

    You idiots will never learn that you CANT make mad! I know I am playing right when powerful Jita traders keep giving me free injectors and loads of money to fight TNT. CODE should ask them selves if they can aford to have so many miners mad st them, without miners CODE would not be able to find ships to fly.

    If other highsec moners and industry toons want to start a boy cot, you should check out my stream, where I show miners how to survive ganks and how to kill the gankers.

    Message Codex Biovector (call me Code for short) in game for a link to my stream, and help or boosts if you want to mine safely in Hageken.

    Fly safe, unless you are a gankers then you can all die, IRL. that should let you know you are playing wrong when people want to kill you in real life.

    1. Hi Codex. Now take a deep breath and repeat after me: "It's only a game."

      If you have a desire to wish harm on someone in RL, over a digital game, that openly states that you consent to PVP the moment you undock your ship, regardless of which level of security system you're in, then the problem is with you.

      Having been someone who has been ganked, in Jita, while carrying PLEX, you would think that I'd be more mad than anyone else out there, wouldn't you? And I was, for a time, until a friend pointed out that A: EVE is full PVP all the time and B: CONCORD does not prevent PVP in HiSec, they merely enforce it. So if you do not take those words of warning, then it is your own fault just like it was my own fault for not reading the fine print back in the day when it happened.

      Now, I fly happier now in the mantra that "This is EVE Online and I am going to die. It's not a matter of if, it is a matter of when." And when it does happen (just like the other day when I lost my beloved Astero in LowSec while hacking, I congratulated the pilot on a fine kill and then asked him how he crept up on me so that I could learn from the experience.

    2. To the Zander player, you sound like another TNT alt. You and your friends are ruining eve for new and casual players. Not everyone wants to pvp ALL THE TIME. You gankers need to learn that before its too late and eve is shut down because everyone is tired of playing a game full of asshole gankers.

      Why must you idiots try so hard to kill eve?

      Delete
    3. A fine post, Zander. It will, of course, be totally wasted on our incoherent and immoderate Codex Biovector.

      You can tell from his writing that he doesn't welcome interruptions - a sure sign of someone not accustomed to actually listening to anyone.

      Ignore anything after the name; eventually you'll get used to ignoring that, too.

    4. Hello Anon Anti-PVPer,

      Its all laid out in the EULA. You consent to PVP the moment you're in open space. If you can't hack it, then go back to a nice, safe, PVE World of Warcraft Server and then let me know which one so I can jump on any one of my characters there to show you up some more.

      I've been reading through the archives here and the argument has been the same going on, what, five years now? "Gankers are ruining EVE and people are tired of it" (isn't that a square on the Bingo Card?). I think that 50K of users on Tranquility say differently.

      I have no idea who TNT is but they sound like a player of sound mind and body to me.

      o7.

      Hi Rob!

      Thank you. :) I'd ignore people like that but, nah, I find it far more fun to troll them. :D

    5. Ahhhh, Wolf. You honor me by thinking so highly of me to want to elevate me to such a revered position. However, I am but a lowly CODE Compliant miner (paperwork pending) and self-proclaimed scribe of the stars of New Eden (I.E.: Author). Alas my time is limited to fleeting moments where I can hack on one character and mine on the other. The rest of my time is spent putting the pen to paper in order to bring literacy and imagination to the world as well as ensuring that numbers match up (AKA: Accounting). Sadly, I do not have such time to be on the esteemed body of CSM and even if I were to have such time, I do not feel that I am worthy of such a lofty position of responsibility. You fill my heart with pride with such a nomination but alas, I must decline. I do thank you for such generous words. :)

  8. CCP designed highsec to actively encourage ganking, which is reflected by:

    - Variable security status
    - Concord delay times
    - Complete bottleneck of highsec by Uedama and Niarja, (they are 0.5 systems by design, and are deliberately intended to funnel highsec traffic)
    - Better yield asteroids in 0.5 to lure miners
    - Paper thin barges that must be made even weaker to ‘enhance’ mining activity

    Miners are inherently greedy and left to their own devices, will ignore the fundamental idea of risk/reward that EVE was founded on.

    They serve no purpose other than to die humiliating and degrading deaths, inflicted by the brave and esteemed Knights of the New Order.

  12. So that Codex Biovector guy seems really mad and possibly insane. Now he's posting as Jagd Wilde, the last guy to kill Codex.

    I guess Kotex snapped after his racist alt Ravenoth Aldiun got banned.

  13. Codex Biovector is the ultimate defector,
    He cries and he whines from the santicty of his sector.
    He is always loud and he never relents,
    And he will not stop until every ISK is spent.

  17. How did I make it through 38 replies to this and NO ONE has commented on...

    "That having been said, with his latest threat, one could argue that zaza promised to make Liek a star."

    This is one of the single most amazing written works of James 315 in the 4 years and 8 months that I have been part of the New Order.

    Everyone should go back and re-read it to gain the full realization of the perfection.
