The Rising of a Corp Thief

"Hi, you killed my hoarder a while ago. I'm interested in robbing my corp and becoming a pirate."

And that is how I wound up helping someone get the help they needed to rob their corp.

I didn't remember him. A quick killboard search and I did. He was a Hoarder running distribution missions in low sec mostly AFK out of boredom. I had called out his intel to the boys because Diz had me ahead scouting and acting like bait. They picked him up a few gates later and popped his ship. I sent him a conversation about the event to make sure he was not a newbie. That particular night was a night of autopiloting everything into low sec. It turned out he was not. He was good natured about it. We had a good chat, and I thought nothing else of it.

Therefore, the conversation request surprised me. However, I was willing to run with it. I made it clear that I'd happily help but I was not making any promises to enroll anyone into my corporation.

What I did was establish the basics. High sec industry corp. He couldn't fly the Mackinaw and Hulk in the ship maintenance array of the POS. I started to explain basic POS rules to him while I called Vov (making sure to use extra Vs). Vov responded, I dropped him into the conversation and let him take over.

As he headed to assist, he taught him what to do, what to take, and made him work through a series of steps to clean everything out. He had him empty to POS, take every ship he could, empty the corporate hangers, access the wallet tab that he had. Once that was accomplished we got the password changed and Vov helped to scoop ships.

All of that was accomplished over about an hour or so. What was next was the corporate hangar array, the ship array, and the labs. It was a stationless system so the tower was running blue prints in the lab.

"Once you do this, there is no going back." Vov warned him.

"I came to Eve for the pirate things, the thefts, the dark stuff," was the response.

"Make sure you have plenty of ammo," Vov responded.

They took down the arrays and the labs. He was rewarded with a few hundred million more in loot and some researched blueprints. The total theft time was around two hours. I was bouncing about, tackling things at the time. It was interesting to see Vov work him through it.

When they were done, Vov docked up with him and traded him everything.

"What do you want in payment?"

"Nothing," he responded.  "Now, remember you can hunt down and kill your corpmates still."

And thus we left him. He joined my public chat and plans to go off to FW and move onto piracy past that.

It was a random question that I knew the answer of. I have 'Sugar' as a keyword so it highlights green and catches my attention. This made me chuckle. Maybe I'll have to go and see what it is like to shoot a ship one day? I could not help but smile. Basi suggested that I put my Titan killmail in my bio and assert my badassery. I figure, naw. It was a roll of the dice that landed me that kill mail. It doesn't define me as a person. Bios are interesting. The idea of a biography is a way to personalize your account. You can learn a lot about a person by what they choose to put in their bio

Memoirs - Part Seven: The Taste of Scandal

Virtual Realities: Memoirs of an internet spaceship politician by Sugar Kyle CSM9, CSMX Viewers get some drama Is there any election that is scandal free? Virtual space politics are not excluded. Sometimes the scandals come from the people ruining. Sometimes they come from outside of that. “I can’t wait to enjoy the drama!” someone had said to me about the election. Those words would haunt me later as I fought not to be caught up and defined by the decisions another person had made. While I played the game and tried to convince people of my worthiness a dark drama was sweeping across the game. The CSM does not dictate game policy. CCP does that. It does not stop many from seeing the members as vocal representatives. It was a public post made by one member of the CSM that started a fire that would take years to go out. Eve Online is an interactive video game with few social rules. It is one of the games charmes. If you can trick another player into making a po

And back again

My very slow wormhole adventure continues almost as slowly as I am terminating my island in Animal Crossing.  My class 3 wormhole was not where I wanted to be. I was looking for a class 1 or 2 wormhole. I dropped my probes and with much less confusion scanned another wormhole. I remembered to dscan and collect my probes as I warped to the wormhole. I even remembered to drop a bookmark, wormholes being such good bookmark locations later. My wormhole told me it was a route into low sec. I tilted my head. How circular do our adventures go. Today might be the day to die and that too is okay. That mantra dances in the back of my head these days. Even if someone mocks me, what does that matter? Fattening someone's killboard is their issue not mine. So I jumped through and found myself in Efa in Khanid, tucked on the edge of high sec and null sec. What an interesting little system.  Several connections to high sec. A connection to null sec. This must be quite the traffic system.    I am f
