Hedion a 1.0 system one jump from Amarr is currently loaded with full asteroid belts, as someone has paid Noir to make sure that no one can mine in the system.
They are accomplishing this by bumping miners away from the asteroids with thier ships. It works pretty well too.
There is good news though, there is a way to mine and not get bumped away.
Fit a frigate or a cruiser with a mwd and orbit the asteroids as you mine them, it makes it nearly impossible for them to bump you away. The downside is you are mining in a frigate or a cruiser, the upside is there are about 9 untouched asteroid belts in Hedion.
The buy price for the ore in Hedion is good as well so you dont have to haul it the one jump to Amarr
Happy mining

This is a prime example why there is a war dec mechanic.

Yeah zero gain. Ospreys are free after insurance and I have enough spare fittings to last for litterally years. So if they decided to spend that isk they are getting to police the system on a suicide op they would lose it as I would just go right back out again. Tbh I think it would be hilarious if every npc corp miner in the area flocked to the system and mined it out in a day. Then we will see how much net profit they can keep out of their 'deal'.

Actually I'm pretty sure bumping is a petitionable offence if its just to keep miners from mining and not in a pvp situation like keeping a ship out of alingment or away from a gate. A case can probably be made for corps they have war decced but then they would just blow them up and not bother bumping them.

Oh I'm perfectly fine with what they are doing. I was mearly handing out some advice to the lurker population of the forums on how to mine all that juicy ore and make noir work for it in the process. Everyone has fun then.

Id be careful with this - griefing in newbie systems is a bannable offence, and suiciding newbies trying to make themselves enough for their first ships is unlikely to be met with approval.
Eve is a harsh place - but this smacks of trying to get Noir banned by someone.

MWD orbit tactic isn't safe, though I just randomly tested a tactic on another char which I didn't even fully test... because I have better things to do than live on the edge mining veld in a 1.0 system.
But I hope they enjoyed the free 870 veldspar and whichever civ turrets dropped.

1. Hedion is not a newbie system. 2. We petitioned before this started so the GMs are well aware of our actions. 3. There have been a number of petitions filed about this. None have resulted in sanctions against Noir. 4. Our actions are limited to specifically interdicting mining operations in Hedion. Anyone who wishes to mine may do so elsewhere. If you attempt to mine in Hedion, we will disrupt you. 5. The rules specifically state that "grief play" is not the proper nomenclature when someone engages in actions for in-game advantage.
At any rate, you can rest assured that Noir. is engaging in completely legitimate play of EVE Online. While we understand that our targets are not pleased with us, it is not our responsibility to be in our targets' good graces.
I really just wish we could declare war on noobcorps. :)

XeCl Drilling Beam I XeCl Drilling Beam I XeCl Drilling Beam I XeCl Drilling Beam I Small Tractor Beam I
Hammerhead II x5 Warrior II x5 Mining Drone II x5
I used a variant of this Ninja-Mining in Lowsec a while back. As long as you keep moving, You should be hard to bump, and the 1600 Plate makes Suicide Ganks Harder. Additionally, The Drones will fend off anything you're likely to encounter in a 1.0 System. Tractor Beam should be used to tow your can behind you as you orbit. Refit with T1/Named as appropriate. I'm pretty sure that there are setups for Other Mining Cruisers out there, but I find that this one is pretty versatile.

I just wonder if they would be able to suicide gank my mining Rokh. It has a pretty good tanking capabilities. Probably quite a few BSes would be needed, considering CONCORD assist :)
Unfortunately I am far away from Amarr, so won't check it out on my own. But if anyone would want to try, Rokh is a pretty tough ship properly fitted and a pretty good mining platform too.

One would recommend trying it and finding out ;) Lets just say the jetcan miners left the first day ;)
As for the contract? We took it because it looked very different than our normal type of work and thought it would be interesting to try. Not sure it's something we'd do again (up to the boss anyway) but so far we've had a bit of fun with it.
And, as was mentioned in the OTHER whine thread about this: Yes, we are using wardecs as well.

We're mercenaries. We get paid to do things people won't (or can't) do themselves. Someone wanted mining in Hedion disrupted- I have no idea who or why, and I really don't give a damn. I care that I 1) have a mission and 2) a paycheck.
This one has been a bit different because wardecs aren't very effective. Declare war and yes, the player corps bolt- as you'd expect. The NPC corps stick around, so we're forced to be creative.
As to the effectiveness of mining in frigates, I leave that as an exercise to the reader. Anything larger will get persuaded away.
As was said somewhere else in this thread- a contract is a contract. You may really not like us now, but I promise you, when you do need mercs, whether it's us or not, you WILL want someone who gives the level of attention to the job we do, even when we're not having as much fun as we would like.

Noir. is a professional mercenary corp. We don't attack miners for giggles, we get paid to conduct specific operations; in this case, we're being compensated for interdiction of mining operations in a specific system. It's a bit of a departure from our usual fare of empire wars or 0.0 operations, but it's certainly been interesting and forced us to come up with creative solutions to satisfy the customer's goals.

Originally by: Porkles Hedion a 1.0 system one jump from Amarr is currently loaded with full asteroid belts, as someone has paid Noir to make sure that no one can mine in the system.
They are accomplishing this by bumping miners away from the asteroids with thier ships. It works pretty well too.
There is good news though, there is a way to mine and not get bumped away.
Fit a frigate or a cruiser with a mwd and orbit the asteroids as you mine them, it makes it nearly impossible for them to bump you away. The downside is you are mining in a frigate or a cruiser, the upside is there are about 9 untouched asteroid belts in Hedion.
The buy price for the ore in Hedion is good as well so you dont have to haul it the one jump to Amarr
Happy mining
bumping miners is a exploit if you are not aggressed, report it :D (yup read it in a post where some one where using it to keep a miner from warping ;) )

Bumping people purely to keep them from warping off without any aggression in a highsec system would absolutely be griefing.
We merely bump miners off the belts. If they return, they get bumped again. Anyone who wishes to leave is allowed to do so, and as Roastedpot said- encouraged to.

Originally by: Tentacle grape Id be careful with this - griefing in newbie systems is a bannable offence, and suiciding newbies trying to make themselves enough for their first ships is unlikely to be met with approval.
Eve is a harsh place - but this smacks of trying to get Noir banned by someone.
1. Hedion is not a newbie system. 2. We petitioned before this started so the GMs are well aware of our actions. 3. There have been a number of petitions filed about this. None have resulted in sanctions against Noir. 4. Our actions are limited to specifically interdicting mining operations in Hedion. Anyone who wishes to mine may do so elsewhere. If you attempt to mine in Hedion, we will disrupt you. 5. The rules specifically state that "grief play" is not the proper nomenclature when someone engages in actions for in-game advantage.
At any rate, you can rest assured that Noir. is engaging in completely legitimate play of EVE Online. While we understand that our targets are not pleased with us, it is not our responsibility to be in our targets' good graces.
I really just wish we could declare war on noobcorps. :)
i am kind of wondering if the gm would have the same eyes if lets say a major (lets just say goons) alliance decided to make alts and start suiciding in a trade system all day just to stop people from undocking in the stations :P
that this is possible from the game mechanic view (considering that a corp literally declare war upon the laws of concord and does it VERY succesfully) just proves once again that there is a need for a mechanic change (personally i would say that the devs have their head up their asses, if it was me i would provide any highsec belt/station/gate/moon/planet, with 2 ecm towers 100% succes instant lock instant ecm'ed, and 4 5k dps guns that instant lock and focus fire+scrambles (while their fleet arrives). it IS concord we are talking about..
funny enough blowing some ones ship of and thereby bending the rules of concord is a legiment mechanic, but if you are able to escape concord by the mechanic which is in the game now it is suddenly a banneble offence... am i the only one seeing the total ironi in that XD
ps: anyway awesome work you guys ^^
edit: that is around 6k+ ships, they could clear out jita permanently if they so decided, just for the fun of it, which would then be valid, now that the gm's have decleared this a valid way of doing it. even more fun, they bumped you away from the station, trying to prevent you from warp, and away from the gates, preventing autojump (because you lend 15km from gates) etc. still would be the same, not bumping to stop you from jumping, just to prevent you using another feature, mining, flying to a gate or a station, doing missions, trading, autopiloting etc. stupid line not to make clear in my oppinion ;) ___________________________________________ Whoever appeals to the law against his fellow man is either a fool or a coward.

i am not sure where the line is set, but as i understand bumping in highsec on purpose without aggression is a banneble offence, since this is a exploit and not a valid tactic to prevent some one from something, since you are not aggressed and therefore you need to aggres if you do this in highsec ^^ could be wrong, there are A ****ING FREAKING INSANELY LOTS!!!! of screwed up wierd mechanics which is sometimes exploits sometimes valid game mechanics depending on who/when/where/for what it was used :P (so pethetic, either it is a exploit or a valid game mechanic, that other half way in and half way out is just a pethetic attempt to have it all ^^) ___________________________________________ Whoever appeals to the law against his fellow man is either a fool or a coward.

Edited by: Taram Caldar on 12/05/2009 03:24:51 Actually the rule is that you have to show that you are doing something for a profit for it not to be harassment. We are absolutely doing it for a profit. We are being paid to perform a service. Goonswarm doing it 'for the luls' wouldn't fall into that category. You can't even argue that we're preventing them from mining... we're not... we're just preventing them from mining *in Hedion*.
As has been pointed out... before we started the contract we checked with the GM's.
But do go on... enjoying the bitter tears even more than comparing how far we can bump battleships & hulks in 1 hit :)

Knowing nothing about anything, were I a vast corporation that had accomplished everything I set out to do in 0.0, I might take a poetic interest in 1.0. If the true measure of a corporation is its ability to hold territory, there is no better measure than holding 1.0.
However, the risk is not so mundane as ships or stations being blown up, and so as this hypothetical corporation, I might be inclined to use someone else to test the premise. If members of that organization were not banned in large numbers, a precedent for permissible uses of force to "hold" 1.0 has been established (and if they are banned, I've eliminated a competitor with ISK).
If I then applied the techniques directly, and CCP were forced by the size of my action to break with this precedent, even if the plan has been in some sense thwarted, I can point to having altered the course of the game itself - a victory in itself.

Hmmm well if last night is anything to go by, most of the time that 1 hit is about 1.7k ... not tooooo impressive for the Claymore that was trying it on me. The Stabber faired even worse and the Megathron didnt even get to hit me though it tried and tried. I do freely admit that the Claymore DID hit a 3 times for more than 10k, but in an hour of trying thats not too good is it? I got really excited when the Mega showed up, was this going to be your attempt to stop me mining? But no, in an hour you didnt even try to lock me, just bored me instead. I finally left when I got bored of trying to bait you by mining but y'all were too chicken**** to actually do anything. Which is a shame as I set that tanking Abaddon special for you ...

Ah, so when they bump me taking off stations all the time in 0.0 it's an exploit? Or is it only for high sec?

Too bad, Concord does not administer justice, but only retribution.
This is why it's considered exploit to avoid Concord's retribution.

this is pretty funny. Who to hell pay for this?? This doesnt work in two ways. May be you can clean up the system for a short time then miners comeback over and over again. The one jump to Amarr make it to attractive. And btw this action already get some "fame" till now and it will attract players who normally dont mine, come there with there mining bs watching TV and see that Noir bump them for hours...
The other way is that there come some more petions and then it will go to the table of a senior gm who will stop this for sure. Saying that "we do it for profit" doesnt work, with this i can bump the whole day and say "someone pay me for doing it" even its true or not.

...why on earth does someone care about a 1.0 system? a single 1.0 system is, in the grand scheme of things, insignificant. So why spend money interdicting it? Unless the plan is some fiendish plot to hire multiple corps to interdict all 1.0 systems in the area, thus pushing up the prive of veld in the area.

While I also don't really care much about a single 1.0 system, I would find this quite humorous if other corps started doing this to macro miners. Why waste time on miners who are just trying to make a living? Do this to people who really deserve it.

Probably not. I stopped by yesterday to check it out. I salvaged a Hulk and 2 BS's that were already dead, but there was no action in any belt. All I saw was a lone Osprey sitting idle far off a belt.
Noir was broadcasting warnings and was wholly professional - to my annoyance since they wouldn't divulge why someone would actually pay them to do this.
In all fairness, I think the reason should be announced just because the whole thing is so wacky and silly. In any event, I love this only because something like this is so unique to Eve.

YES
Legal yes. Practical no. The difference between shutting down a trade hub and posturing around a practicaly deserted 1.0 system that noone mined in anyways past a few random newbs and time limited players is so vast it almost defies planning.
Ontopic: After reading this thread yesterday I decided to drop down out of low sec and check it out to see what was really going down in Hedion.
Lol!
Noir couldn't keep me from mining in my cruiser no matter how hard they tried and at one point they had 7 ships all whoooshing past me. They missed thier bumps 99% of the time and the lucky few who managed to clip me only nudged the ship about 3k max. Also the promised suicide gank never materialised so bummer on that one. So after they gave up on me and left me to mine in peace they decided to play bumper cars for literally hours with a retriver that had warped to the belt. Too bad it was a setup and he had went afk hours earlier so it didn't really accomplish much except for gratuitous laughter in the private chat we locals had set up and gratuitous ninja mining in the belts Noir were now not patrolling. Granted I or others were not making much isk from it but the fact is we were making isk. To be fair even if they were not there I still wouldn't be making much isk off of it as the roids are smaller than mittens nads and contain even less minerals.
Synopsis: If you want a bit of fun at a clueless merc corps exspense head on down to Hedion and fit out a nice tanked mining cruiser with some mates and go play with them as Noir seems to be a fairly nice bunch of kids and not emo at all.

To me, this is the most interesting part of this thread...
To many of us, it is as well. :)
This contract is, to be honest, boring as hell. Wartargets bolt, NPC corpers assume we have the IQ of, well, an NPC corp member and try lame "why won't you shoot me?" tactics in ships obviously fitted for combat, not for mining (a single civilian mining laser does not a miner make). The most interesting part of the day is trying to figure out the angle of our employer. We've come up with some pretty interesting theories, some even backed by circumstantial evidence, but I don't think I can disclose those in public, at least not while the contract is still running.
Suffice it to say, if I wasn't on contract, I sure as hell wouldn't be in Hedion bumping NPC corp miners (and "miners"). It's more grief to us than to our targets, it often feels...

To be honest though, you weren't mining.
You had a single civilian mining laser fitted on your Blackbird (or was that the one with 2 Xenon drills? I forget), and you never emptied your cargo hold: In other words, you were just letting your drills blink on the rocks for no gain.
That's not mining, that's pretending to mine. We're in Hedion to prevent mining, not prevent those pretending to mine from pretending. Main reason we kept trying to bump you and kept taking the single Veldspar you kept dropping was boredom, but it's also good practice: We'll start hitting your ship eventually. So do come back, you're doing us a favor.

Legal yes. Practical no. The difference between shutting down a trade hub and posturing around a practicaly deserted 1.0 system that noone mined in anyways past a few random newbs and time limited players is so vast it almost defies planning.
Ontopic: After reading this thread yesterday I decided to drop down out of low sec and check it out to see what was really going down in Hedion.
Lol!
Noir couldn't keep me from mining in my cruiser no matter how hard they tried and at one point they had 7 ships all whoooshing past me. They missed thier bumps 99% of the time and the lucky few who managed to clip me only nudged the ship about 3k max. Also the promised suicide gank never materialised so bummer on that one. So after they gave up on me and left me to mine in peace they decided to play bumper cars for literally hours with a retriver that had warped to the belt. Too bad it was a setup and he had went afk hours earlier so it didn't really accomplish much except for gratuitous laughter in the private chat we locals had set up and gratuitous ninja mining in the belts Noir were now not patrolling. Granted I or others were not making much isk from it but the fact is we were making isk. To be fair even if they were not there I still wouldn't be making much isk off of it as the roids are smaller than mittens nads and contain even less minerals.
Synopsis: If you want a bit of fun at a clueless merc corps exspense head on down to Hedion and fit out a nice tanked mining cruiser with some mates and go play with them as Noir seems to be a fairly nice bunch of kids and not emo at all. 
We were disrupting miners, not random people orbiting in a Blackbird who happened to fit mining lasers. A few of us tried to bump you but it didn't take long to figure out you were just a waste of time when there were other people who were actually mining. You just orbited and ejected a single unit of ore every few minutes- hell, you didn't even haul anything (or if you did, it was so minute an amount as to be trivial).
What you don't seem to grasp is that you weren't even remotely disruptive and that your little insurrection against the ebil clueless mercs meant nothing to us because about the instant we figured out that you were essentially the local equivalent of a forum troll and not going to have an actual impact, we just left you to orbit your rocks and talk smack. ;)
Rest assured, my friend- you had no impact at all with respect to our mission. But we appreciate the attention you lavish on us. As they say, there's no such thing as bad publicity.

It sounds like they arent even sure what their own mission is.
Is it to stop people from mining and then taking the ore to be processed?
Or is it to stop people from mining as in turning the asteroids into ore.

Originally by: Zeba Actually I'm pretty sure bumping is a petitionable offence if its just to keep miners from mining and not in a pvp situation like keeping a ship out of alingment or away from a gate. A case can probably be made for corps they have war decced but then they would just blow them up and not bother bumping them.
Noir are doing it for profit since they are on contract => they are not breaking the EULA
The people who made the contract probably have their own reasons for it presumably (pushing up mineral prices, lulz, etc). CLEAR SKIES 2 IS OUT! PLEASE SEED! |

player or NPC losses are still losses and all should be posted.
not posting your NPC losses means that you corp efficenty is only effected by what you want people to see.
for example
you go to shoot a transport ship, the transport ship is ehavily tanked , you attempt to suicide it but concord kill you before that. THAT is a legimiate loss and should be posted.
im not ashamed to say i have lost a few ships to NPC i lost one yesterday as i forgot to turn my tank on but i still post it because that ship was my responsibility and i lost it so it goes in my KB.
because it a NPC is a lame excuse and doesnt show you true losses.
if you buy eve in a box from my game store i will give you isk (GAME , parkgate rotherham)

Huh, weird and rather uncommon practice, I must say. All losses from missions, ratting and W-space posted?
If we wanted to, we could make our KB private. It's not a public service, after all.
To clarify: If a player ship is involved at all, the kill gets posted. Also, ships killed by a POS do get posted.
No corp or alliance I've ever heard of before you posts pure NPC losses, no matter what the circumstances. Not saying it doesn't happen, I just never heard of it before in 3.5 years of EVE.

What is the point of posting NPC incurred losses? If no other player was even involved, why waste time to post it? It has no relevance to anything.
Now if a player shows up on that km, whether they did the killing or not, that is completely different.

Noir,
Not sure if anybody mentioned this yet but I think destroyers are typically the most popular ships for this kind of high sec suicide gank. They're cheap and depending on your skills you can alpha for up to 700-750, 200+ dps. You'll last like 2 nanoseconds once CONRCORD locks you but it beats losing battleships...
The cormorant is pretty weak but the Coercer, Catalyst, and Thrasher can pump out some fine damage especially with T2 turrets & ammo.
3-4 destroyers can wreck a hulk in a couple of seconds. At 1/10th the cost of one torp raven for your whole gang.

So I did use to suicide gank back in the day, and you can break even on some battleships, including Ravens, with an all t1 fit (which is really, after all, all you need).

There has to be a rational reason behind the payment. Otherwise you could pay people to break any rule in EVE and it would be legit.
CCP works off of petition volume I have noticed when it comes to enforcing the rules. The only people in Hedion are Noir and the people they have attracted to the system to have a bit of fun so I can assume the petions are nonexistant atm. As far as the original newb miners and playtime limited players they 'drove' off in the first day or so well those guys would have left anyways and are probably just a system or two away so I don't see the threshold getting crossed anytime soon. Unless of course everyone in Hedion getting bumped by Noir starts filing harrasment petitions. Then you may see CCP react if only out of being annoyed at having to deal with a crap load of silly harrasment petitions over an even sillier merc contract.

To be honest though, you weren't mining.
You had a single civilian mining laser fitted on your Blackbird (or was that the one with 2 Xenon drills? I forget), and you never emptied your cargo hold: In other words, you were just letting your drills blink on the rocks for no gain.
That's not mining, that's pretending to mine. We're in Hedion to prevent mining, not prevent those pretending to mine from pretending. Main reason we kept trying to bump you and kept taking the single Veldspar you kept dropping was boredom, but it's also good practice: We'll start hitting your ship eventually. So do come back, you're doing us a favor. 
Oh so you though I was only just dropping 1 veld per can and never transfering? Heh mission acomplished. Btw that 'ore thief' I was complaining about in local? Welp that was really my cloaked ninja hauler scooting back and forth from the cloaked orca sitting at a well made safespot. Also here is my 'civvy' miner fitted blackbird just so you know what to expect.

As far as coming back to help with the obviously needed bumping practice well sure thing mates. I have opened up my eve schedule to hang out in Hedion and am currently running a few moar alts in and asking any and all to come join me so you will have lots of practice if I can convince them to stop making isk to annoy a merc outfit.
Which brings us to the point.

Telling opinion that last part. Is your mission to disrupt all mining operations in Hedion or not? Mining is mining and no matter how 'trivial' you may think the amount being taken may be. The contract issuer is certainly not inclinded to want anyone take any amount of ore from Hedion. He feels so strongly about this he paid a merc corp to bump newbs away from the worthless at best of times belts.

They aren't generating any responce in game past the curious players who have read this thread and decided to trundle off to Hedion to see whats going on. Now about it generating a forum responce well gee thats because its what we do here in the forums them being forums and all. Tbh I hope they trundle back to the pvp zones and put thier ceo against the wall and repeatedly pod him if he ever takes a comedy contract like this ever again or allows members to post in an obvious bait thread. On a personal note I will say the Noir did act professional, did not smack like adhd kiddies and did indeed try to keep people including me from mining in peace for literaly the whole night with mostly minimal results. But having them 'enforce' mining in Hedion them actualy post in this thread is like Dairy Queen hiring a crack commando squad to run off all the buisiness of Uncle Joe's homemade Ice Cream and Bait shop at the corner of Main and Hillbilly lane in Mudsville Alabama then brag about it as a job well done.

I wasn't aware you were so well versed with our contract as to be able to judge whether we're fulfilling it or not. Please feel free to inform our customer about our breach of contract at your earliest opportunity. The details of our contract is between Noir. and our employer, and if you want to know what they are, you have to ask our employer. Oh, and you're still not mining. Real miners use real mining ships, be it a cruiser with mining bonus or actual barges or exhumers. What you're still doing is called "nibbling". We're not in Hedion to prevent nibbling, either.

This tells a lot more about you than us, to be honest. If you _really_ think we'll fall for something as silly as that, why haven't you given it a try?
Why is it, btw, that us on a contract are wasting our time (and why do you take such a huge interest in it anyway?), while you _claim_ to be doing all sorts of cool stuff with your alts while using just one account to mess with us, and then it turns out you're actually giving us _all_ your attention? Aren't _you_ just wasting time? So when you said you're doing cool stuff with your accounts while annoying us with one, you were lying? Well quess what? When I said I'm doing other stuff than just staring at (mostly) empty belts? I wasn't lying. And please don't claim to be "stalking a prey in lowsec" while juggling a cloaked hauler in an asteroid belt to reach a moving can, a "mining" ship, and the "well-hidden Orca" (none of which I believe for a second, incidentally, but let's indulge you for a moment here) at the same time.
It's interesting to note how several posts in this thread are desperately trying to get more people to come to Hedion to annoy us. "They all fly faction cruisers and are really easy to trap, come gank them" is new, but the best laughs I'm getting are from all the "OMG it's full of ore!"-messages. As an ex-miner, I can say that what Hedion has is called gravel, not asteroids, yet people try to make it sound like the lost mines of Solomon. I'm actually grateful for that, since more targets (bumpaple or otherwise) means less boredom.
And Tyrantus, you got it wrong way up in your earlier post: I wasn't saying your attempts at amusing, I mean annoying us are what's causing us grief. On the contrary. An empty system would be the worst thing, that would really feel like we were the griefed ones, not the griefers. Any distraction from bumping the same Hulk out of range for the umpteenth time is a bonus. Well, almost any: Some of the smack on local has been just sad.

Cleverly implying there are losses missing on our KB. As said before (several times by now), please let us know which ones those are, and we'll add them in a jiffy, in addition to reprimanding the people who've failed to post their losses.
And not even KBs that use API usually include pure NPCs losses. Revel in your uniqueness.

You're not really mining in your apoc. 2 mining lasers? I would've thought a 2003 character could maybe use more effective mining methods. Seems more like you're trying to bait people trying to prevent people from mini... waaait a minute, I see what you did there!
I was curious to see how far a single bump from a Cerb would push an Apoc, so I tested it. Wasn't really expecting you to go flying 50km off the belt, but tbh, the result was better than I expected. At least the Apoc moved.

I'm a retired man who has lots of free time and Eve is the perfect filler for it. Since I was a wee lad I remeber Buck Rodgers and reading H.G. Wells then on to Star Trek when I had grown and on to all the great sci-fi since then. I thought I had died and gone to heaven when I discovered Eve and it has been a huge occupier of my days as it keeps my mind flexible and lets me socialize with people from across the entire world who all share my love of spacehips and pew pew with a generous helping of skullduggery along the way. Its like an elaborate hobby that always has something new to do or a challenging change of pace by doing some other career or role. To sum it up I guess I simply love this game and the vision the creaters have for it.

And as you can see, we succeeded admirably in your case: An Orca, a Blockade Runner, and a single non-bonus giving cruiser mining with 3 T1 mining lasers? Instead of, say, 2 (or 3 or 4, since you claim to have 5 accounts) Hulks and the Orca? Consider your mining operation seriously disrupted, dude. As a bonus, we now know 4 of your 5 characters by name.

False hope of what? Having a bit of fun at your exspense? Roffles.. I challenge you to completely vacate the system and see if a proper hulk mining squad with orca in tow shows up. It Won't as the only people who have ever mined in that system are newbs and the few total empire hugging carebear miners in solo barges with possibly a hauler on a second account in tow. Your corp stated that all mining ops were to be disrupted and looky looky it was not. Not even close really compared to the normal Hedion mining traffic. You failed your contract as it was unenforcable anyways. Sure you can reduce the normal mining a bit but you can't stop it. As you have seen when people are denied something they go to great lengths to overcome the obstical even if all it gets them is the satisfaction of a well countered foe.
As far as my alts.

I have no intention to "come calling" unless, of course, I get paid for it. As to trying to scare me with 0.0/lowsec, well, it's not quite as scary as you seem to think it is.

Well the problem we have here with your comparison is that it is based on the assumption that the system to mine is worth the effort of using a full blown hulk and orca squad in the first place. It is not. Its a newb system with just enough ore to make mining with low sp characters or part time players who are looking to safely justify the barges they trained up for to logon and mine for a bit. So in effect my mining op and yield was typical of what would normaly be taken out by a small group as it could have been just as easily done with an osprey and cloaked indy both of which are easily available to a new player. My high sp was irrelevant as were the ships I used because your stated goal was to disrupt normal mining operations. You did not and currently are not. See attached exhibits c, d and e.

My how convienient that it ends right on the day I started disrupting your recruiting promoti.. errr contract in Hedion. So this whole thread has been a joke? Whodathunkit! Personally since you opened the whole accusation thing about me making stuff up, something that I promptly trumped with proof each and every time I might add, all we have to go on with your claims of the contracts timetable and even its existance are vauge explantions of mysterious employers with even moar mysterious goals. Bullshait.. It was a stunt to go along with your thread in crime and punishment and a recruitment promotional event to drum up attention and pull some new blood out of the woodwork. But eh you will just come back and say no its incorrect we had a legit cont.. blah.

You were the one who talked about spreading my alts names to your corp and others to harrass or hunt me. So drop on by the Taff circle whomever it may concern with a gang then start some trouble and see how long you last. The locals are not friendly and just one of the allied corps in the area outnumber Noir. at least 2 to 1 with the others closer to 4 to 1. Poke your corp into that nest and its gonna get whacked like a pimp whacks his trick.

No, only most of it. Corporation-button -> wars -> other wars -> type in "Noir." and look how many wars we currently have active. You know why there aren't any? Because the contract is over.

I'm not sure you understand the nature of mercenaries, but we'll drop by when we paid to do so, not before. It also seems you don't understand some very basic truths about lowsec/0.0 combat: If we were to bring a gang into the area, I doubt a corp that on paper outnumbers us 4 to 1 would actually outnumber us _during our op_ by that much: They'd be unprepared and scattered, while we would be in a fleet working in unison. Also, pure numbers rarely mean a thing:

Yeah so you say. But you also have 68 pilots in your corp and could easily have rotated a couple in and out to keep your mercs happy with some pew pew as a suprisingly determined foe chipped away at thier resolve in Hedion. Then you could have kept the recruit op open and not had to have ditched the 'contract' when they had no moar fun and refused to go.

Heheh. Please mate I've have been in the Taff circle for weeks now and have seen some action that would make 0.0 fights look small.
These corps are nearly all pvp and are sitting on some nice moons that tend to make them buzz around in capitol fleets with shoals of bs, T2 cruisers of all make and flocks of tacklers. The only reason they let me alone(well moastly :P) is becuase I go after the ratters looking to cash in on the numerous bs spawns and better than 0.0 faction drops. Hell I have most of a domination pos setup guns and all just off faction and exploration drops that other people had first. Its a truely fantastic system but its a dangerous place at best so really if you ever get a contract offer to go pos bash one of those moons just say no or you will lose your arse. This is no shiat mate I mean it stay away from the Taff circle is you want to keep your kill to death ratio high. And none of this has a thing to do with me as I would simply be another hunter after your arse.
Plz no moar 300 references mate. You do know the meaning of passe' yes? Now as far as my pvp prowness just look up Tyrantus killmails since he is the only alt that I was forced to post killmails on in any signigicant number. Now do the kill death ration thing with the true number of losses listed an noone seems to share my lack of killmail *****ing with the fact the listed kills only represent a tiny fraction of how many kills I actually have. So go back you your merc corp and toss about some newbs in barges or sit at a pos and fap to furry pron as a lazy corp hires you out to do the boring crappy stuff noone else will do.
Have fun with that career choice mate.

Ditched a contract? Ditching a contract is something mercs try to avoid, it's not good for business. You thought we cancelled a contract on your account? Didn't happen.

Again, so you say but as yet in this entire thread have you given us any proof of your words past the same ole reporters plea of: I can't give out my sources its against the reporter ethics!!

Dunno as I don't normally post killmails if you had bothered to read the rest of the sentence you didn't quote. That was simply a bonafied to dispel any belief in that silly 300 thingy you snaked into the thread. Like I said the listed kills are but a small fraction of the total so sorry mate I'm not one of the mercenary potters with a leather thong and stabby stick.

Well in the newen days when threads get this many views with just a couple of people exchanging opinions it means that they are enjoying the hell out of it for some reason. I'm sure we all have our ideas about what it is but I'm fairly certain after much evemails and ingame chat about this thread its not quite what you are thinking.

Wouldn't it make more sense for you guys to all get into exhumers and wipe out the belts? It seems like it would be a lot faster, make you money in the process, and achieve what you're trying to do much of efficiently, rather then trying to "bump" everyone, being unsuccessful 90% of the time.

Someone who easily broke your 'blockade' with nothing more than simple determination along with all the other players doing the same thing that I didn't mention? I love how this thread steadily went from "We Deny ALL mining operations in Hedion" to "Oh your op doesn't count as it didn't reach optimum yield for yor skill level" to "Well unless you are in an easily bumped or suicidable hulk you don't count as a miner.. Heh, yeah that it, thats the ticket, only Hulks yeah.." after you couldn't stop the normal newb and not so newb miners from mining. So why did you feel it important to dig up this thread? Worried about your rep much and felt the need to bring an 'official' remark to it? Please God Bless me with even moar oppourtunities to make you guys look stupid.

Bah, just bring 100 miners in hulk and belt is mined out in half hour while NOIR cant do s**t, max they could do is pop 1 hulk and loose all involved ships with concord protecting belt and instapoping any agressor for long enough to mine every single mineral in belt.
