The Drifters don't seem wildly interested in ingratiating themselves with anyone that we know of. Their actions have been unremittingly threatening if not blatantly hostile. Who honestly needs to exchange words to understand their intent at this point?
Now, the Sleepers are another matter. I do believe a project aimed at penetrating whatever virtuality they have isolated themselves within and making direct contact would pay enormous dividends. For one thing, if the Drifters are capable of communicating with anyone I imagine they would be willing to interact with the Sleepers. |

Pity gallentean lapdog, how stupid you should be to claim Im "condemned", if only people who actually condemn me are such low-witted federal lapdogs like you and couple of tribals, who are by miracle managed to be even more dull than you.
What stays in your inflamed hallucinated and brainwashed by gallentean propaganda head doesn't become universal truth if you decide to spill it out.
Honored are the dead, for their legacy guides us.

That, I've got to say, is a lot of Kimmie ranting. Wow.
We have reached, and in some cases exceeded our most vital requirements - the Sleeper components and research materiel. The analysis has commenced yesterday, focusing at first on the base, physical structure of Sleeper communication devices. We will move on to the higher layers as the project continues.
It was one hell of a surprise to find that we got enough datacores and database materials to start a big research facility. The sheer amount of hardware will hopefully accelerate our progress through the more difficult sections of this research.
Thanks to several supporters, we have sufficient hardware to commence construction of the base components - and significantly lower the cost of the Heliograph installation itself.

On the other hand this is better than fighting them and maybe we'll learn something along the way. I don't have much but I'll send over what I can.
Perhaps they do speak, and it is ourselves who cannot hear. If opening comms with the Drifters can mitigate what would surely be a devastating conflict for all involved then it is a goal to strive for.
Should my scientific skills be of use then I am happy to assist. This project can mail me with requirements and research requests if they wish. I'm more than happy to assist. |

Quattras Peione wrote:While I understand the intent, pilot Vero, I disagree with your assessment that for the Drifters killing is a means of communication. While a message has certainly been conveyed, that being - pardon my Gallentean - for all of us to **** off, I don't think they see it in such a nuanced fashion. The violence they have visited upon capsuleer forces seems quite utilitarian in nature. They blow up whatever stands in the way of their admittedly unknown objectives and move on without any of the trappings of communiqu+¬ generally associated with armed confrontation.
To put it bluntly, I don't think we are important enough to them to merit being spoken to.
That reads very much like a mirror image of capsuleers behaviour in sleeper sites. Perhaps they are some form of children learning from those around them. Perhaps this is a case of New Eden's Empires reaping what they sow. |

Good luck in your endeavours, ladies and gentlemen. I only hope that in your groping around you do not wake the dragon.

Although I am not that familiar with them, the Drifters appear to be a formidable opponent. One strategy when confronted by a formidable opponent is to add more to the mix, as they tend to have their own agendas and hate each other. Of course, if despite that they decide that their mutual agenda is to wipe out Mankind, oops!
Oh, wait! No, that is my agenda too!
Awaken the dragons!
Speaking of dragons, I believe that we built a great big statue to Tiamat out in Delve back before Tiamat was, like, cool and stuff - at least on the most recent cycle of Cool-and-Stuff. Wavelengths, you know. |

Oh, you. You'd be quite happy to awaken the Dragon provided it agreed to sit for a painting.

Awaken the Dragoons?
The Dragoons are awake all the darn time, floating around neuting the hair out of anything with a capacitor.
A Minmatar warship is like a rusting Beetle with 500 horsepower Cardillac engines in the rear, armour plating bolted to chassis and a M2 Browning stuck on top.
