Demigoddess with a Conscience

Article

Sure, I’ve been caught by customs on occasion for smuggling the Blue Pills I use to boost shield management while in combat. They’re not legal, they’re rather dangerous but still…it’s our life right? Nerve sticks on the other hand…Oh well, this guy will probably never try again, that’s for sure…

As Sansha’s Nation continues its renewed offensive against the citizens of New Eden, many have called for the four empires to band together, as in centuries past, and destroy the threat as one. These calls, however, appear to have so far fallen on deaf ears.

“Sansha’s Nation was a threat over a century ago,” said Professor Fontine Mereux of the University of Caille, a leading expert on the history of CONCORD. “But in the cluster’s darkest hour, all of the empires banded together to smash them. Sansha’s Nation is now resurgent. For too long they’ve been allowed to fester in Stain. It’s time that the four empires band together once more to wipe it out.”

Thousands of others have raised similar calls to arms, believing that the only way to counter the Nation’s threat is through cooperation between the four empires, but years of mistrust and fighting between the empires has made that path appear unlikely.

“If it wasn’t Sansha’s Nation doing it, it’d be the Amarr,” stated Jorel Yat, a high-ranking Vherokior tribesman. “I say the Republic should focus on stopping the Nation from attacking us and let the others worry about their own citizens. Make us a less appealing target and we’ll be left alone.”

Gugiere Ladux, a Gallente politician, said, “I heard the Caldari Navy managed to hack an invading force and turn the Nation’s agents against each other. If they really wanted to help, why haven’t they turned this technique over to the rest of the cluster? If we sent our Navy into Stain, what’s to stop the Caldari from hacking the Sansha to kill us first?”

The effort has not been aided by CONCORD, who continue to insist publicly that the Nation is not a threat. “At the present time, CONCORD does not require additional empire-provided manpower to deal with pirate incursions,” a short statement from the CONCORD Assembly read.

- The Scope

While the Caldari strive to combat this new threat, politicians are squabbling and tossing blame here and there. This is a common view apparently, shared by the love-couple of Minmatar-Gallente. In their strive for “freedom” and “community” they end up being paranoid and scared shitless.

The empires banded together and defeated the Sansha’s Nation (wether that was right or wrong, I’ll leave for another time) not long ago, and now that the Nation rears its ugly head again, what happens? Caldari develops new technology to combat the threat, as always. The Amarr…I dunno, they probably pray or something. The Minmatar? They blame the Amarr, or simply state “Fuck them, we care only for ourselves”. Gallenteans get paranoid. It wouldn’t surprise me if that bloody “freedom” speech gets spouted soon as some poor excuse to close their borders. Why in all that is holy would the Caldari hack a Sansha fleet to kill gallenteans? That’s probably the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard.

This post will be pretty much short and sweet.  I’ll even be nice and give you the the tl;dr version:

I felt I needed to make a flowchart for my planetary interaction business. I drew it by hand, like they taught us in school. It turned out pretty awful, don’t you think?

Well, in the limited time I’ve spent connected in these last weeks, I’ve taken up exploitation of planetary resources. It’s amusing that this is probably the first real industry-related business I’ve taken up in all my career, unless you count the hours spent mining. I think my teachers back at SAK would cry rivers of blood if they knew what their star student is doing these days. I spend my days blowing crap up instead of building and producing. Not sure I went to the right school actually. Sometimes I think I should’ve listened to Catrina and applied for a more combat related education, but I was intruiged by the industry side and went with School of Applied Knowledge.

Thought I’d throw out an update.  Just because I felt like it really.

So what’s going on with Isaac and his shenanigans with Ancy Denaries.  Well, I’ll be honest.  I had every intention of getting involved in our last war.  (I mean, I made a big deal about it in my last post to a point).  However, real life has been over my head here lately and the war wasn’t as interesting as we had hoped.  The corp we wardecked is basically dead.  With an egotistical CEO that thinks it is actually functioning.  Delusional people…best kind in some situations, but not always.  So I’m currently split between my assets in Amarr and in Caldari space, with no real goal in sight.  This has really been the theme for me for the last 6+ months.  I have no goal in Eve so I play occasionally, but its pretty random.  No goals do that to a Capsuleer.  That is currently my goal right now.  To find a goal.  Ironic if you ask me.

Otherwise I have Real Life duties that I have to finish up.  Hopefully the next few weeks will take care of that and I’ll be back posting more shenanigans that Ancy and I will no doubt get involved with.  Until then, I’ll just be stalking around.

The war between Frontier Venture and Zenith Laboratories is coming to an end. Frontier Venture has retracted the war against Zenith Laboratories. The war will be declared as being over after approximately 24 hours.

List of [ZLAB] members: Out of 71 members, 3 are signed on to GalNet. Average online pilots are roughly 4. Of the three online, 100% are inside dock and have not seen the space in four days. 2 pilots have been outside station in this time. One in a covert ops frigate, other in a multistabbed Moa.

I’m not interested in targets that will just lie down and take it like a street-corner whore. I’m interested in targets that have an interest in defending their members and good names. Not acting like a bullied kid hiding in the closet.

*tosses [ZLAB] in the same box as [SHOK]*

Stabs. They’re using stabs. I didn’t think anyone would stoop so low as to use stabs on a combat vessel. I’m not sure if I’m gonna bother fitting more points or if I’m just going to ignore the whole thing and say “didn’t want that war anyway”.

I will be honest right up front, I did not think I would post about this person.  Did not think I would even get the chance to talk to him.  Did not even think I would blog about it.  But after reflecting on this encounter, I decided to go ahead.  Yes, I can already hear you groan “Oh no, not this baka again.  NEXT!”.  Well, while it has some of his shenanigans, this will probably be the only post in this blog on dear old Joe Pheonix, (Supreme Commander of his meatshield alliance and his dead corporation).  Why?   Because I suddenly have no real wish to hunt him down after this conversation.  Not to say that I wouldn’t Doomsday him if the chance ever presented itself, but hunting him would be a waste of time and energy better spent on richer targets and such.  I’ll explain later on why I say this.

So to quickly introduce you, I’ll just link to Zedrik Cayne’s blog.  Quite honestly, only read if you have unending hours to read the amount of chat logs.  The tl;dr version is: Joe Pheonix is an egotistical prick.  Seriously, that’s all you really need to know.  For the most part I have disliked him because he represented the wrong things of Eve and of humanity.

So a new campaign stands before us as the Zenith Laboratories [ZLAB] caught our attention. Zedrik Cayne, a well renowned operative of the IEEE, have begun investigations against ZLAB and [-FRV-] moves in to assist. Not really out of any kindness or obligation, but because I felt that the ZLAB representative truly displayed some really crappy chestbeating, and if there’s something I can’t stand it’s people chestbeating and then failing to live up to the promise.
