Well, a good cautionary tale should never end without the lessons one should have learned from the experience. And from some good natured discussion online...
* Don't write checks with your mouth that your ass can't cash. * I may not be the best PVP'er...I may not be omnipresent or omniscient...but I do know how to roll a snowball down hill. * I have friends, you have corpmates. I win. * Using your alliance as a meatshield never works, because they figure it out eventually. * If at first you don't succeed. Joining a bigger alliance usually won't work either. * Depending on the enemy's stupidity is dangerous, but fun while it lasts. * If you don't like what is being said about you on the forums, it is in your best interest to just clam up. The average attention span of a forum reader is....Oooh! SHINY! * Doing what you say you are going to do, even if it is not the smartest thing you could think of, usually pays off somehow. (Trying does count!) * Read the forums...Not only are they occasionally funny. But they make an excellent recruitment filter.
I'm sure there's more I'm forgetting...But those stood out. --

I leaned that, ever so rarely, a thread can show up in C&P that is worth reading every single post therein.

A very entertaining saga.
I await the fraps video and pending apology from ThCEO and/or ThGuy. ______________ Some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn. |

I actually paid to get someone to fraps the self destruct :) Will be getting the footage at some point. It may be a while as I'm going on vacation starting like...tomorrow. Cutting up video, trying to make it amusing and whatnot will be low on my priority list..high on the priority list will be playing with my daughter. We'll see how it wrings out.
As for the apology. We'll see. I think ThCEO thinks he's done with the podding alone. And at this point it almost felt like kicking a puppy repeatedly near the end. I'm way too nice that way sometimes. (And if I carefully read the chatlogs, he didn't specifically agree to apologizing, and I didn't specifically say that without it he would be hounded to the ends of the universe)
So I guess another lesson learned:
* Be very..very specific..Some people will worm their way out of anything given enough wiggle room. --

I think this has been possibly the most entertaining - yet cautionary - tale I've read on any forum anywhere. Many thanks Zedrik for the cool, calm, absorbing way you laid the story out. I'm sad to see it all end in a way because it was constantly lol-worthy, but I think ThCEO/ThGuy got what they so obviously deserved. |

Edited by: War Kitten on 17/06/2009 14:43:19 With or without the apology, ThCEO / Thguy will never understand what he's doing wrong.
"Some men, you just can't reach. So you get what we had here last week... which is the way he wants it... well, he gets it."
Well done Zed - looking forward to reading about the next idiot you meet. :) |

Right now OECO has changed directions, but should we return to our previous course, ThCEO will be my downtime filler. Whenever we don't have any contracts or wardecs or other immediate objectives, we'll be going after him and whoever he flies with.
The very fact that his alliance executors defended him after reading the threads and listening to the guy talk speaks world about the alliances - who will also continue to be targets.
Zed, I will never run out of targets now thanks to you. This thing has snowballed and splintered so much that there are literally thousands of people to chase and I can pretty much guarantee that since ThCEO hasn't learned anything, he'll continue to alliance hop when he's in trouble. |
