Hands Off, My Loots!

I was bored…tired of Station Spinning I actually decided to undock and go harass miners rather than Mission Runners.  The first couple of systems didn’t have anyone who wanted to play, but then on my third try I found myself a nice Covetor mining in a belt with a few rat wrecks around him.  After stealing from the wrecks he warps off…and a few minutes later an NPC Corp Thrasher shows up next to me…and this is the conversation we had, along with a little party.

For those that don’t want to read the entire thing, here’s the tl:dr version first:  ERIC KVEILAN was mining on his main (yes…he’s an alt…with an all caps name…).  After I took some stuff from his rat wrecks…he came out in ERIC in a Thrasher because he doesn’t know anything about aggro rules.  I learned that he was account sharing so I told him I wouldn’t report him if he fought me, and that we would only fight to hull.  After a while he agreed, he warped out twice before I told him I’d go refit for range so he would have a chance…but instead I switched my Disruptor out for a Scram so I could kill him this time.  After that, I got minor Tears…and a threat that he’d find me later…continue reading on for the full version…

I just deleted 12 paragraphs of pure sexiness in order to remake this post…(this is the post I’ve mentioned a few times that I’ve been working on…now not so epic).  It had lots of nice In-Character RP and juicy details about what I was doing in Faction Warfare and what my plans were, etc.  But as I tend to do so much, I changed my mind and am leaving Faction Warfare…before I even announced publicly that I had joined it!

Almost 2 weeks ago (Sep 18, 2009 to be exact) I left Suddenly Ninjas to go try out Faction Warfare on the Minmatar side.  Within the first 2 days I had gained 2 promotions, with a 3rd following about a week later.  I spent a bit of time orbitting outposts in plexes at 15-20km waiting to claim them for the Tribal Liberation Force.  While this was entertaining to begin with…the fact that I was doing this in systems that were deserted took a little of the excitement out of it.  So I tried looking for some populated systems.

That didn’t work out so well because those systems had pirates constantly warping in to try and kill me.  Granted…playing the “Hot, Cold” game with people telling them if they are getting closer to you are not, while you are in a cloaked covert ops 150km away and lieing to them can be fun for quite some time…it just doesn’t give me the thrills that I was getting before I joined Faction Warfare.

So what next?  Since plexing wasn’t “doin’ it” for me I thought I’d go kill some people.  I woke up my alt, took the Providence to Jita and bought 100 Rifters, and enough fittings for all of them, along with an Impel and a Prorator (I agree with pjharvey that Transports are nice ).  Once I got to my highsec staging base, 2 jumps from Dal…my main lowsec base), I fitted up my two transports and got ready to do some moving.

The Prorator made 2 trips with all my fittings, the Impel was used to start moving the rifters…8 at a time.  Yes, an Impel can hold more than 8, but I put some Warp Core Stabs in the lows along with my Expanded Cargoholds to make sure I got through any gatecamps unscathed since I had to jump through Amamake and Dal…both havens for pirates at times.  I made one trip in that Impel and decided I didn’t feel like moving the rest of the rifters…so I logged of the alt, got in a rifter with Cyberin, and went out to kill people.  (Note: I have these characters on 2 different accounts…not sure why I logged out of one to log in the other…oops).

I never got to kill anyone…and I ran from quite a few someones.  Blobs suck if you aren’t in one.

So here I am, my application has been resubmitted to Suddenly Ninjas (hopefully they let me back in since I was already a member…not sure though since there is another pending wardec…we shall see)…and I get to start moving all my crap back to dodixie.

On the plus side, all my stuff is in 2 systems 2 jumps from each other now…should make the freighter run quick!

I still plan on getting some In-Character posts done, I really want to get back into it…it’s been so long since I’ve role-played that I want to make sure I still have the writing skills…I don’t write nearly as much as I’d like…or as I used to, which is a problem I would like to rectify.  And by write, I mean using my imagination and skills…not just jotting down posts like these in 10 minutes .

Problem there is I’m not sure if I want to do something In-Character as a ninja…or simply do some Fan Fiction about whatever…it will probably end up being a little bit of both.

So…look forward to more Tears, and new In-Character Content!

Well, yesterday I spent all day trying to figure out what was going on with my computer.  It crashed in the morning and just wouldn’t come back on all the way for a few hours.  I finally said to hell with it and tried to reinstall Windows, but apparently my disk drive is dead.  So, I’ll be using my daughters not-so-nice computer until I scrape up the money for a new disk drive for my laptop…which might be a while sadly.

Also, in other news, I have decided (after getting an offer I couldn’t refuse) to move back to my own custom domain name for the site.  I’m not going to reveal it until I get it all setup…but believe me when I say it will be nice, got good plans for it.  Should be a couple days until it’s ready to be released.

Before I announce it I’ll of course have to contact Crazykinux, some people that have linked to me, and some other people about getting all my RSS/links straightened out to point at the new site.  I figure people didn’t have enough work to do…what with having babies (Crazykinus…gratz by the way) and just recently updating from my move I just did to podlogs not even 2 months ago.

Oh well, such is the way of things…though I can promise this new site will be the permanent home of Hands Off, My Loots!

Podlogs has been good to me so far, and I wish it the best, but I need my own space to grow and thrive, and I just don’t feel I can do it as well when I’m restricted to what I can do without having full control of the entire site.

Hopefully I can get some time to play EVE tomorrow so I can actually post something about the game soon…as all my planned posts went down the tubes with my hard drive (chat logs…), and with all the commotion I didn’t get a chance to play much the past few days sadly.

It’s been a very eventful couple of weeks!  Got a few kills, got killed a few, got podded due to lag…meh, decided to play in WH space, put up a POS, etc, etc…

I actually started this post sometime early last week, but between working, catching up on a few hundred google reader posts, and actually playing EVE I’ve neglected actually finishing it a bit, as a result…there will be more information than was planned! Hooray!!!

———-

The War with the Deadspace Society is still going strong, though I have a few opinions of it, and how most of our corp is handling it.

We started off the war with getting a few more kills than we were getting killed, which was good.  I personally got in on a few kills myself, and died twice.  That last kill there was a pretty fun one for us.  We had been chased (and being chased by) a gang of about 7-8 War Targets, and took one jump into lowsec to head to another area of highsec.  Sadly for Slumpert he was the only one of his gang that decided to follow us into that lowsec system…which ended in his destruction.  I hope he said thanks to his mates!

The Typhoon kill was a nice addition as well.  It started with Akquar playing station games with us, not having enough of us to to much about as we couldn’t break his tank before his agression timer ended and he docked up a few times.  Finally, much to his surprise backup arrived and he last attempt to play with us resulted in him going pop.  For some reason (possibly lag?) he sat their in his pod so I pointed him.  Sadly I wasn’t paying attention and clicked on another ship rather than his pod to approach and ended up getting out of range so Zav and Lars helped me crack his pod open.  Yes, his corpse is sitting in my hangar now…no…I won’t tell you what I do with it at night.

My two deaths were no where near as fun.  First one was simply me being the weakest person in the gang I was in so I got primaried pretty quickly I assume.  Second one happened due to my own error.  We were forming up to mess with a WT gate camp and everyone was aligned to the gate.  FC said “Warp…” (so I hit warp) “…to Planet X” (this is where I learned to let the FC finish talking before hitting warp).  So I end up at the gate and play jumping game with them a few times.  I think it was the 4th jump where I couldn’t burn back to the gate fast enough and got squished.

———-

My alt got podded, that was annoying.  I was in Rens I think selling my lastest haul of sleeper stuff, and making a few runs with a few loads of Arkanor I had to unload.  After 4 trips, I undocked from the station to find a WT in a hurricane sitting out front, I quickly docked back up in my Bestower to purchase a Shuttle to mess with him in.  My plan was to head out, warp to a planet (which I did well) then warp in and out to annoy him while he couldn’t lock me each time.

Well, where it went wrong was the first time I warped back in…I lagged.  My screen updated just in time to see my shuttle go boom, while I was spamming dock the whole time…then more lag.  Next thing, I wake up in some station in Amarr space in my clone.  There goes that full set of +4s.  I hopped in a shuttle and flew back to Rens, logged out, and logged back in a few hours later to successfully get my hauler out and back to the wormhole.

I put in a petition to see if I could get reimbursed, since I was dumb and forgot to check and make sure my clone was upgraded (which…it wasn’t…figures…only 3 days of training to get back the skill I lost though, so wasn’t too bad).  As always, the logs showed nothing.

———-

I mentioned it earlier, but in case you missed it, I’ve been spending most of the war in a Wormhole system goofing around.  I didn’t actually come in here to avoid the war, it just happened to work out that way…I’m hiding in the Shadows like a good Ninja!

When I first came in it was simply for a quick run with an Alliance Mate (we have an official alliance wh corp that has a pos in this same system).  But it ended up with me staying for a bit, getting annoyed that I couldn’t use the ship maintenance array to store my ships (alliance mates can put them in, but only members of the wh corp can get them out for us…no thanks).  So, the next day I thought about putting up my own POS to base out of.

When the static highsec exit opened up 3 jumps from Jita I took it as a sign from all those Ninjas that have passed before me.  So, 9 trips of 6 jumps each later with my fully decked out and rigged Bestower Alt of Doom I had a medium POS setup in a class 1 wormhole system.  Overkill? Yes!  Fun? Yes! So it worked out well for me.

After a week though, I think I want to find myself a Class 2 wormhole to get to while I work on my skills.

My POSs Overkill Setup

Now, for the part that had to deal with the title of this post.  My plan for my next WH move is to put up a large faction tower with a little bit of everything that I can online/offline when I need certain services.  I know it’ll be overkill…but…I like to do things over the top.  So, in good Ninjas fashion…I need someone to send me 2,600,000,000 isk so I can buy all the stuff.  If you don’t have that much, I’ll accept much less, please just send Donations to Cyberin.

(please also note, the above paragraph is not serious…unless of course, you want to donate lol)

Where does the future lead?

I’m not sure yet.  I enjoy being with the Ninjas, making new friends, and getting my loots from other people.  But I’m also have a blast in my Wormhole, while also having thoughts of Faction Warfare.  I thought I had finally made up my mind with what I want to do when I joined the Ninjas…but apparently, my mind was playing tricks on me since I’m still unsure of exactly what I want to do.  I think in the end it’s all just going to come down to me doing whatever I feel like doing, whenever I feel like doing it.  I guess only time will tell.

So, it’s been a week since my last post…and quite a bit has happened.  I’ve helped in a few kills, had a great time in one of our weekly salvaging ops, made a decent amount of ISK from you ever helpful mission runners, and got some decent tears to fuel my ship for a while longer.  So sit down, grab some popcorn and a coke (please…no pepsi), and have a read.

Suddenly Ninjas has two official weekly salvage ops in which we go around and salvage peoples missions in mass…collecting loots, salvage, tears, and most of the time a few killmails.  One of which is local to Dodixie, and the second we choose a system each week that fits a certain set of criteria (top sekret! no askin!) This week I wasn’t able to make our Dodixie Operation so I tagged along on our Field Trip.  It was no different than normal as we went back and revisited Emologranlan since it had been such an excellent provider of fun the last time we went there for our weekly Field Trip.

I stayed around with the other Ninjas harvesting tears, loots, salvage, and a few killmails for over 8 hours.  In the end we made over 12mil ISK each which is actually a bit lower than normal…but for good reason.  We had over 20 Ninjas involved in the Fleet at one time…and while that may not sound like a lot.  Trying to find enough missions to keep 20 Ninjas moving for 8 hours straight is a pain in the ass…and ends up with quite a few of us sitting around twiddling our thumbs and starting random topics on voice chat.  But…the tears we get from some of these mission runners are superb.  (This last trip actually got us a War Dec…but that’s for my next post…)

Word of advice to all you mission runners out there…when a Ninja loots your stuff…they really do want you to shoot at them.  Whether it’s for them to go grab their pvp fit Battleship to blow you away, or to simply get a fast frigate to warp scramble you and keep you in one place for an hour or so because you are being an Ass…one way or another…it’s bad for you to shoot at us.  Just as this guy, this one, or maybe even him.  Those last few were especially fun because they were butt hurt that we brought no less than 6 remote reppers to help our little guys stay alive while we killed them (I was one of the little guys in my Stabber for one, and a remote repper in a Hurricane for another).  We even had 2 rifters and a thrasher suicide themselves trying to kill us…not to mention the hurricane that did in on accident thinking they had aggro just because their friends did…they all failed I might add!

Moral of that story?  We are Ninjas…we are not PvPers…getting smacked for using overwhelming force and a fleet of remote repair ships makes us happy…so keep it coming! (of course…hopefully none of you people reading this blog are stupid enough to shoot at a ninja…but if you are, thanks for the loots!)

All in all we collected over 17km^3 of loot for that one operation…and I enjoyed every minute of it.

Now, for those of you who like a bit of tears…I collected these yesterday morning…where I made over 63mil isk in a 2 hour period…it was such a glorious morning.

Wollx > f**k off
Cyberin > no thanks
Wollx > do it
Wollx > I hate f**kkers like u
Cyberin > to each their own
Cyberin > just trying to make a living here, it’s hard for a lowly janitor like myself
Wollx > take a mis your self
Cyberin > i just did
Cyberin > took yours
Wollx > haha .. very funny . u cant even take a miss by your self because of your lousy skills :L
Cyberin > no need to when other people do them for me

This guy was my favorite…just because his spelling was horrendous…and because he opened a private convo with me rather than just raging in local like most people do.

I have much more tears than that…but looking at my chatlogs folder I’ve determined that I need to start taking notes on when I get my tears…because I don’t feel like looking through a week of logs to find the good stuff.  So expect more, better tears next time after I’ve worked out a way to keep track.

And up next in my next post…WAR!

Most people might not find this impressive, but as my very first ever solo fight I’m rather pleased with myself.

I just managed to kill Lady Spank, the infamous C&P Poster, Scammer, Sly Dog, and pretty much awesome person that needs to join SN…now.  And when I say ‘just’ I do mean it…this is my ship after the fight…note the hull remaining…14%, it was such a rush for me.

Also of note is the fact that Spank dropped a Coreli A-Type Reactive Plate…cheapest on Contracts is 20 mil.  I was planning on giving the loots back to him, but after seeing that, I figured I’d stick with the name of my blog, and style of gaming I’m into now…and so…Hands Off, My Loots!

———-

The fight started easily enough.  I was sitting in station wondering about a post I had recently read about using ECM on a rifter and I thought I’d try it out.  There was someone outside station with a 1v1 can, but they pulled it and left literally right when I was undocking!  That’s when I saw Lady Spank say good night to everyone in local…so I thought I’d jump on the opportunity knowing Spank could never turn down a free fight.

Lady Spank > logging nn chaps
Cyberin > hey spank, come kill my rifter before you log
Lady Spank > cyberin ok

Easy Enough!

———-

So, out of warp pops Spank, and drops a can.  I head over, grab the bookmark (thanks for the free spank voucher) after I’ve got a lock and then wait for the red flashy to show up.  A Few seconds later and there it was!

Engage NOS! Engage ECM #1, wait a bit, Engage ECM #2, wait a bit longer, Engage ECM #3.  Somewhere in there I remember to active my guns as well…but that was all as I didn’t equip a point or afterburner since I didn’t expect Spank to run…and…I wanted 3 ECM so no afterburner for me.

The first cycle of all 3 missed I believe since my shield disappeared pretty much instantaneously, but my Armor took a little bit to start going down so I figured the ECM hit a few times to drop Spanks lock.  After I got him down to around 50% armor or so I started taking heavy damage and thought it was the end.

I activated my Armor Repper and took the damage off my armor as another ECM wave hit Spank and I got a little reprieve.  After that though, I think the last 2 cycles of all 3 ECM missed because after that my armor disappeared pretty quick as Spank entered low armor, and then hull.

I was sweating by this time as we were both in hull, and I know 100% that my armor repper saved me as it got in a few cycles so some damage went into armor instead of hull…excellent! (and to think, I almost didn’t equip it)

14% hull! Crap I’m going die!  There’s the explosion, the bright blue flash, and there’s my pod…no…wait…that’s not my pod?  Sweet! I won!

After the fight, we exchanged GF’s in local, and Spank mentioned ECM was boring!  Probably for him because he’s been doing it longer (he had t2 fit, etc…I can’t even use t2 small guns yet…I’m working on it).  I found it exilirating and my hearts still pumping from excitement!

I’ll have to do this again sometime, it was a blast.

This is a quick blog before I go to bed, I’m still thinking about this, even though it happened over 12 hours ago now so I figured I’d just have to post about it.

I was in a mission today, salvaging, when one of the two mission runners dared me to loot so he could kill me. I told him I would gladly loot right after I was done salvaging.

I died in that mission deadspace.

This best part? Both the Maelstrom, and the Dominix shoot me…before I aggro’d…and they got Concordokkened…

I sure enjoyed the 40ish Million ISK of T2 loot, hope they did too 

[ 2009.08.03 14:34:57 ] Taran Frontrunner > lol as I said.. I made 35mill off the deal myself 

[ 2009.08.03 14:35:16 ] Pyth2 > Don’t see how you made 35 mil losing a T2 fitted BS

Can someone kindly explain to me how one can make 35mil off a mission, when you have TWO fully T2 fit battleships blow up?…I fail to see where the math works out there…lol

Well, I got accepted into Suddenly Ninjas on the 30th of Jul, and have been having quite a bit of fun with them.  I’ve gone on 2 corporate fleet operation so far, and from the looks of it…this is gonna be one awesome ride!

I wasn’t in the first op, with everyone just running around Dodixie as a fleet salvaging peoples loots…got paid 4mil for being there a short while…not much else to talk about with that one.

Now the second Op…totally different story, I was in this Op for over 8 hours and it was a BLAST.  Just a short summary, I looted, I salvaged, I killed someone who shot at me, and I killed someone who didn’t shoot at me and collect some epic tears that truthfully I think I’m gonna have a hard time getting some better than the tears I now have bottled and setting in my China Cabinet.

My First Epic Tears

I’ve included the chat log on a different page simply because it’s rather long, you can check it out with the link above and I’ll explain a little here.

The short version is, I started out ramming some random person in a belt…apparently there was something wrong with my nav system.  A conversation was had, we went back and forth about who the real prick was, evemails were sent (well, at least I sent one to his ceo…not sure about him yet), and it ended with me podding him, getting my 30 Million isk Stabber blown to hell by Concord (forgot to insure it…i really need to quit doing that), and then going to bed shortly after…was a fun time

Throughout the whole conversation, another member of Suddenly Ninjas managed to play the ‘good guy’ telling my new ‘friend’ that he would make sure to get me kicked from corp, and while doing all that…managed to get the password to this little miners giant secure can.  So I relieved him of his 2 hours worth of ore and told him I hacked his can.  Never once did he ever suspect that my corp mate was actually still on my side…some people really are thick headed aren’t they?

Earlier in the operation though, we were kindly helping a mission runner clean up his wreck field when he fired on me and a few other corp members.  I went and grabbed the Stabber (that was concorded later for the guy in the belt) and went to work on him while waiting for someone else in corp that also got aggro to make it back with a bigger ship.  Ended up I didn’t need any help, even with my crappy skills.  Took him down after a few minutes with support from a Remote Repping corp mate to keep me from dying…was a fun time.

Other than those two big incedents (my first official pvp kill, and my first tears) the rest of the Op went pretty smoothly for me and I went to bed thoroughly happy with my first real excursion with the Ninjas.

Though, seeing as to how I used to be one of the people hoping that ninjas didn’t come bother me or flip my cans, I almost feel a little dirty and like a traitor.  But then again…I guess I am…but, hey…I’m enjoying EVE now…so I think the change was worth it.

First off, I’d like to state a simple fact.  The Salvage you see above me was gathered in about 10 minutes last night.  Secondly, I’d also like to state that this Salvage is mine.  Lastly…I did not do the mission that this Salvage came from.

I’ve left The Joint Venture Conglomerate Alliance and put in an application with Suddenly Ninjas.  Been thinking about what I wanted to do for a while, and although it’s not the most popular career in EVE…it seems fun to me, so I’ve chosen to take the plunge into the Darker Side of things.
