Ok well I decided to dec a corp that jumped from an alliance we dec'd. The problem was we had used up our 3 allotted slots and I decided to dec them on a crappy alt with little skills.
My alt is so crappy, he doesn't even have warp scrammers trained. Ok, so anyways....
While TRAPS had their alliance dec'd I killed his Retriever.
The sad thing was, I entered the system, scanned him down, warped to the belt, I was 90k off of him, I BM'd his can, warped out, warped back and popped and podded him. He convos me to talk some trash.
As he does, he explains about his macro program. Of course he claims I am making all this up.
[ 2008.02.25 07:21:15 ] Xiaclo > im disappointed though ... you couldnt even kill my pods ... [ 2008.02.25 07:21:36 ] Nexa Necis > bleh you logoffskied [ 2008.02.25 07:21:39 ] Nexa Necis > classy [ 2008.02.25 07:21:48 ] Nexa Necis > no way a cruiser should be able to lock a pod [ 2008.02.25 07:21:53 ] Xiaclo > actually i didnt ... my mining bot did ... but whatever [ 2008.02.25 07:21:58 ] Nexa Necis > yeah funy [ 2008.02.25 07:22:01 ] Nexa Necis > funny* [ 2008.02.25 07:22:05 ] Nexa Necis > i caught it all on camera [ 2008.02.25 07:22:10 ] Nexa Necis > both accounts logoffski [ 2008.02.25 07:22:50 ] Xiaclo > kinda strange though ... they should have logged as soon as you touched armor ... ill have to fix that ...
I advise him that it's against the rules to use macros. He starts playing semantics.
2008.02.25 07:34:36 ] Xiaclo > again ... very interesting ... thanks for helping me work out coding bugs [ 2008.02.25 07:35:21 ] Nexa Necis > you know using 3rd party programs to mine is against the rules [ 2008.02.25 07:35:36 ] Xiaclo > yes it is ... but its not 3rd party [ 2008.02.25 07:35:54 ] Nexa Necis > CCP puts it out? [ 2008.02.25 07:36:07 ] Xiaclo > well who are the first two parties? [ 2008.02.25 07:36:40 ] Nexa Necis > well if it aint by CCP, it aint legal [ 2008.02.25 07:37:15 ] Xiaclo > you still didnt answer the question though ... there has to be 2 parties for there to be a third ...
This corp, Infinite Covenant jump from Covenant of Prophecy alliance. So the dec goes through on the alt and I find one of them afk on a gate, and pop he goes by my Caracal o' Doom.
I log in the next day and see Xia Clo, Xiaclo and Xide Ros all logged into a system. They're the same guy running all 3. Nothing unusual, I have 6 accounts, so no biggie.
I warp to the belt, once again, I am way off, I warp the 180km to them. As I get there the Bestower warps out. Hmmm..I lock down the Retriever. Notice, the time of the screenshot is 22:41, 3 of them in system, 1 Prophecy, 1 Retriever, 1 Bestower will show in a moment.
22:41 Lock the Retriever and pop it.
So then his Bestower goes pop at 22:47. Now why on Earth would you send your hauler out of station and into a belt your mining ship just got blown up in and your pod popped?
22:45 Bestower and Prophecy. Bestower blows up 2 minutes later.
Notice in the screenies? I dont have a scram fitted. Why? I haven't trained them yet.
So I go to work on the Proph. It's got a medium armor rep running non-stop since he has CCC rigs and cap rechargers. He had no weapons on it, only remote reppers for his other chars.
22:52 Working on the Prophecy
I can't pop his Proph before he logs out. His macro program has all 3 accounts logging in and out at 5 minute intervals.
23:49 Still trying to kill the Prophecy
So I trained up scrammers, it took several hours, I had to dock and fit a scrammer. Of course his macro is still in action. I managed to finally pop him.
00:59 Proph pops!

So of course their CEO at first acts as if he has no clue about them macroing. I suspect more of them do it too of course.
I mean it's not normal behavior to mine during war, with 3 accounts. It's not normal to not see your war target show up in local, take 2 minutes to find you, warp to your belt, bookmark your can, warp out, warp back, pop your barge, pod the pilot, then warp your hauler back to the belt over 5 minutes later, get it popped and podded, meanwhile all 3 accounts are logging in and out at 5 minute intervals exactly, then get your Prophecy popped over 2 hours later, even after I left the belt to refit a scrammer.
That my friends is not AFK, semi-afk, not paying attention, that is 1 of 2 things. Either you're completely ******** or you're macroing.
I highly recommend people dec these guys. His CEO could care less. He claims they're all broke and can't pay a surrender fee, yet he's in a new Mackinaw and Xiaclo is as well along with another rigged Prophecy.
He said he will make Xiaclo stop, but then decided to call me a liar saying I fake chat logs and screenshots.

There is allways the possibility he's winding you up about having the macros or bots just to make you waste time petitioning him and ****ing you off.
But yeah if he is a macro user and CCP can't/won't do anything about it it sucks but don't let it bother you.

QFT!!!!
Nexa, you are a bit of a celebrity in the EVE Universe. You should get used to people trying to yank your chain as they all know that if they yank it enough, you will post about them in a story on EVE-Pirate or a post here.
You are letting them win, you are giving them a voice when simply ignoring them publicly will irritate them more than they have irritated you.
Let it go man, it's just a game.

At first, I liked your stories. They had detail, went into depth about the targets, etc. But now, all you do are long WHINES. So stop whining and play the damn game, cause tbh no one really cares about the no name corps you're deccing now.

Originally by: Nexa Necis Either you're completely ******** or you're macroing.
And that's why CCP can't do anything. Proof or STFU seems fitting

tbh, I wouldn't waste my own time trying to get a macroer banned. Especially since it is so difficult to get proof. But, I would spend my time repeatedly popping his ships. The constant grief will most likely make him stop or move somewhere else, where you can locater agent him and do it again :)

Well it's not a whine in the least. I am not sure how people seem to think I am coming off like that. There's no anger, there's no being upset or annoyed. More like "hey look at what these whackos are trying to pull."
It just happens that the last few were doing things that are most likely against the rules. Even with the corp jumping incident, they're now in a npc corp. So I wonder if they got a warning since one of the posters pasted a GM response saying that type of corp jumping was illegal.
I am just pointing out, I caught some guy macroing, I petitioned him and the GM said they would look into it. 2 hours later, he's still macroing and I manage to kill all 3 characters, then the next day, he's back to doing it again and so on and so on.
I like the fact that despite the abundance of proof, their players claim all the chat logs are fake as well as the screenshots.
It's going to be fun killing his corp non-stop.
