Parenting by the Code, Part 2

Previously, on MinerBumping... Neil Muutaras went to his friendly neighborhood Agent to buy a mining permit from her. Out of nowhere, the miner went on a foul-mouthed rant in local about the Code. Agent Alt 00 was considering her options when the miner suddenly made another about-face: He apologized for the rant and claimed his teenage son was to blame.


Anyone who enforces the Code is bound to come across a carebear who shifts blame to friends and family members who allegedly have access to his computer. With rare exceptions, these excuses are nothing more than that--excuses.


Neil didn't hesitate to throw his son under the metaphorical bus. That shouldn't be taken as evidence of his son's nonexistence, however. It's pretty standard behavior for highsec miners. Most of them would sell their own grandmother for a little extra isk.


Ah, there's that word: "Also." When uttered by an Agent of the New Order, you know that inspiration is about to strike.


Neil was once again the meek, mild miner that he'd been when he first approached Alt 00 and asked to buy a permit. Maybe there was something to Neil's story about his son. After all, why would he go on a psychotic tirade against the New Order in local, only to immediately send our Agent money and attempt to make amends?


As everyone in local looked on, Alt 00's idea took root in her mind and began to blossom.


In a situation such as this, a simple apology by EVEmail wouldn't do.


Protip: The name of the Saviour of Highsec is even more effective than the D-scanner. Speaking my name in local is usually enough to flush out a rebel or two.


Non-compliants hate to see their fellow miners obeying the rules. They know that every time a miner follows the Code, it brings more heat on the remaining rebels.


Before long, Alt 00 received a photo of the handwritten apology letter and portrait from Neil--or his son, Jacob:

For the sake of comparison.


Alt 00 found herself troubled by some of the flaws in the letter, especially the reference to "John 315". She considered that maybe this first attempt at an apology should be rejected out of hand, rather than being forwarded to the Saviour. So our Agent turned to the official diplomat for the mighty CODE. alliance: Light Neutron Blaster II.


Of course, Light Neutron Blaster II isn't the name of an EVE character; it's an item. Alt 00 made a rare use of the walking-in-stations feature to consult the item as one would an oracle.

She sensed its dissatisfaction.

As our Agent pointed out, the most revealing thing about the letter was the condition of the paper itself. The letter had obviously been crumpled into a ball and thrown away, rather than being framed--or at least given a place of prominence on Neil's refrigerator. This miner (and his son, if he exists) still has much to learn about the Code, I think.

  1. Right Neil, that's a start. Now your boy needs to write that out 100 times over his school. I want to see that written 10 foot high.

    1. If the grandmother in question was not Code compliant, then that would be the natural course of action.

  7. Holy fuck you actually had some kid draw the carebear pirate king.

    Damn is that how you got shardani to kill his kid?

    Seems you got Apache saying its ok to beat your kids over a video game as well.

    Fucking losers, no wonder you complain about kids and shitheads in high sec, you're just as fucked in the head.

    Stay in your safe space children.

    P.S. Try to keep in in game because making one guy kill his kid was already way over the line. Don't start punishing kids in real life again.

    2. LOL. Best cringey rant of all time.

      Not our fault shardani got so upset over ganking and a video game.

      Even his wife said he wasn't a nice person in real life - but you missed that didn't you.

      Keep ranting and raving it generates traffic for the blog.

      You should have told him to keep it in game XD

    3. Hey apache do explain what it's like being so cowardly that you have to beat up on children and idiots to feel good.

      Then explain what your doing advocating for players top breast their kids over a video game.

      You know what don't bother you're the type of child abuser that needs to be thrown of a cliff

      Btw your profile is as anon as it gets so don't think because you put a name on it makes you any less of an anon.

      Or your real name out so people know where your child abuser ass is and maybe someone can get you the help you need or the ass beating you deserve for wanting to beat kids over some stupid video game.

      Typical code behavior.

  9. Do you actually believe the miner had a kid. Pretty sure he's just a kid himself getting a ruse out of this page. That's one way to make a headline after all.

    ReplyDelete
  10. Still fucked up that your boys telling people to do things out of game, and wow looking at your boy apache I'd say he had a bit much anger telling people to kill themselves. Seriously if you acting like that you proving the anons point. Not code like behavior, your supposed to act professional not like miners.

    ReplyDelete
  11. Wow. That miner's son is as lazy and poorly disciplined as the miner himself. Retrieving the crumpled paper and scrawling a few corrections at the bottom? Also I'm pretty sure he wrote he was "Sally" instead of "sorry". A final draft is in order.

    1. Lawton, reveling in bringing RL into the game makes you a miner. You are just as sad as a miner now and are a disgrace.

      Keep it in game or you're a miner.

  12. No one is my "boy", I am posting anonymously and have claimed no allegiance to a side. I haven't played eve in years and I was mostly a highsec mission runner, got bored (surprise). Found out about this website afterwards and come here for lulz at work.
