Ok... So how many pirate ships where destroyed? Is loosing 120+ ships a victory? And most important, did pirates drop something??? ______

It started off with the people guarding the station, as the scientists asked. Then people started shooting people, then guristas invaded, then more people shot other people..
Was a waste of time in my opinion, and the only loot was gurista battleship drops.

Edited by: Shevar on 05/02/2004 01:14:58 Edited by: Shevar on 05/02/2004 00:42:57 i was there at the first part (upto 40 people in the system), was fun got a named siege launcher and a xlarge cl-5, left came back. Went through to rancer killed a 20 bs spawn with 15 others orso (was fun as well), and now there is another such spawn left at planet 5....
Lost my tempest at planet5 though (2 thermal hardeners and an xlarge cl5 couldnt keep up with the several missles per seconds i got against my hull and made sure I couldnt get alligned and I found myself in a pod ) -------- -The only real drug problem is scoring real good drugs

Edited by: Stavros on 05/02/2004 04:09:06 The event was a complete waste of time.
I accompanied a force of ATUK battleships down there in my Incursus.
So there we were sat outside the station, merilly shooting bships and defending the stations... Right with me so far?? Everything sounding peachy?
WRONG
THEN oh dear, its 200000 little nub frigates full of STUPID whining nubs. WAAAH WAAAH why you shoot us, waaah your pirates...
Hats off to the ATUK guys, their patience held out ALOT longer than mine would've.
The event was ruined by loot whoring idiots, who's sole participation was to fly in as fast as they could in mwd equipped frigates, steal loot from the kills made by the people actually CONTRIBUTING (ie those in cruisers/bships etc) and then try and run for it. Needless to say quite a few of them even made it out alive ¼_¼
Events like this are ruined by IDIOTIC noobs, who think they have some kind of godgiven right to show up and steal stuff from more advanced players and not suffer any consequences.
Don't even get me started on the total nubtards who were shooting the loot cans...
Sentiment in local was definitely that the event was crap and a complete waste of time for the more advanced participants (ie those will enough to skill to actually want to FIGHT the npcs and not just steal stuff).
I don't know if it was an Aurora event or a Dev team event, and no disrespect to any-which-one of those two teams, but you need to sort out that crap and asap if your gonna do something like that again.
Cos now all you got is a pile of dead noobs and a host of bship toting corps who just won't bother showing up next time.
NUB EVENTS 4 TEH WIN!

Even without being there I have to agree with Stav.
Since I was in the Jove event in stain looooonnggg ago.
So congrats Stav, now you know how we felt when nubtards complained about us killing their rookieships in which they tried to grab the loot from our kills(oh well, not just n00bs, but also "experienced" players in frigates just going for the loot).
However, the Jove event was still the best time I've had in EVE. Too bad that nubtards kinda ruins all events.

yah dalman, not all of the 'noobs' were new players alot were just scum in search of cheap loot. Which I suppose is their perrogative, however if it wasnt for the bships there, their woulda been no loot for them to *****.
A stupid state of affairs all around. --

Won't make any excuses for losing a Typhoon to the 1m outside the station.
I would have appreciated it, however, if I wasn't forced to leave half my firepower offline to avoid pasting the vultures...er, ships circling the bship waiting for loot to drop.

Crielere is .3 and the stations still had working sentry guns.

Yah i was there myself with Shevar, and i saw several people wasted from the sentry guns as people in frigates tried to steal the loot. I agree what a bunch of idiots to ruin the event, they deserved any podding they got.

Few problems with shooting em down:
Firstly sec rating, its 0.3 and although its peanuts per ship, you DO loose it and it starts to add up if you have to keep swatting stupid noobie pests.
Second as jash said the station guns still worked. Which sadly meant nubbies could just dock and get a brand new loot stea... i mean noob ship.
Lastly there was just so many of them, seemed like everyone and his dog was there, sadly there were 10 bships max.
Pls die noobs, thx... --

First there were much more battleships but i think ppl just switched to frigates when they saw that there was no way of getting the loot with a battleship.

Addendum:
And with the fantastic sec rating gain we get nowadays, Battlecruiser Millenium Online would prolly be released before recovering from popping a few people that trully deserved it -.-

Hey, I lost a bship there using 2/3rds the availible firepower. 100 Paradise and 100 Cataclysms sitting in my cargo hold because if I had splashed a vulture I'd have taken a sec hit I'd never recover from.
My .5 sec rating should tell people my affinity to farming rats

Edited by: Lao Tzu on 05/02/2004 05:58:00 If this sort of event is going to happen again the (NPC) pirates could 'post gaurds' on the gates into the system,to keep the vultures out.
*edit so it makes some sort of sense*

I was not there myself, but I'd like to ask a question based on what I have read here.
Why complain about the noobs stealing your, well deserved I might add, loot?
Isn't that the pot calling the kettle black? I mean, as pirates you destroy ships that people have paid for after hours of mining, perhaps, and steal their modules that are usually hard earned.
You can justify those actions fine, and I accept that pirates are part of the game.
But how can you complain when a bunch of people steal what you have?
BTW, I don't condone their actions. Just genuinely curious to try and understand your perspective.
