Girabaldi D'Protagonist Minmatar In Theory.	Posted - 2009.09.09 12:32:00 - [1] Well last night, one of our pilots was out doing what he does best (scouting for victims) when he came across an Orca in a Belt with a Hulk warp scraming it. Well this looked mighty strange and he realized that the Orca had no pilot and that the hulk pilot must have been mining and using it as a large Jet Can. So the call went out over vent that there was an Orca that had now driver and we immediatly formed an op to retrieve said merchandise. Upon entering the belt Our Pilot targeted the Orca to ensure that the ulk pilot could not jump in it and run away (gotta love game mechanics). One of our other pilots bounce the hulk out of targeting range, and as soon as he did that, pilot one disengaged targeting, I hopped in the Orca and flew it back to home base. There was also a Thorax and crystals in the Orca so it was bonus time. The young man was not happy as you can imagine, and promised to petition our little act of piracy. However he doesnt have a leg to stand on. So the moral of this story is boys and girls.. don't leave the keys in it while you are taking a dump. or you might find your Orca Jacked... Muhahaha

Dawts Interstellar Brotherhood of Gravediggers Privateer Alliance	Posted - 2009.09.09 13:19:00 - [3] So nothing exploded? No ransom? Why can you fly an orca? Grats on the epic stealzorz.
Sky Princess Gallente University of Caille	Posted - 2009.09.09 13:24:00 - [4] I would post a single sceptical emoticon here, but that is against my principle. I find your story highly unlikely. A person rich enough to buy an orca, and with the skills to fly one, is not a newbie. I don't believe a person, leaving an orca abandoned in space, does exist. Remember: Drinking and posting in a forum is a bad combination ----------------------------------------------- Where ever I go, there I am.
Sharbaraz	Posted - 2009.09.09 13:29:00 - [5] from what I understand locking the orca would not hav prevented the owner from re-entering the orca. It only prevents others from doing that. Btw interesting tactic of just bumping the hulk out of range instead of suiciding it
proudalt	Posted - 2009.09.09 13:38:00 - [6] Ok, my Alliance (my mains) "found" (i mean ships without a pilot): - Orca at a gate (he ejected as he was about to blowup) - Rorqual (was at a pos, but out of shields) - Jumpfreighter (was bumped out of shields due to password reset...) So ppl having unpiloted ships nearby is nothing spezial in my opinion :D
FU22 Synthetic Frontiers	Posted - 2009.09.09 14:04:00 - [7] seriously you must have at least some general knowledge of how to play eve if you can fly an orca. Why are these people so fricking stupid?

Remember: Drinking and posting in a forum is a bad combination This happened in the system of Pulin Yesterday evening. It is a fact and the young man we took it from is still angry. We did offer to sell it back to him but he believes that CCP will give it back to him.. I believe the individual we took it from is called pitvip3r or something like that.. and he had taken the hulk to the belt in the belly and thought he could hop out of it and mine and noone would talk his orca.. we just happened to have the ability to take it. It was quite fun and he came back to our system and railed about it in local for about a half hour.
Hanso Sparxx Deep Penetration Inc.	Posted - 2009.09.09 14:38:00 - [10] Originally by: Dawts Why can you fly an orca? I think these types of oportunities are a good enough reason to train for orcas. ------------------ Go Deep!

Cogswin Iannyen Caldari Ordos Apocrypha	Posted - 2009.09.09 14:51:00 - [12] Nice find Tag. I'm in the market for an Orca... got one to sell?

Ran Khanon	Posted - 2009.09.09 16:44:00 - [14] Gratz. Nice find :) My hat off for the bumping tactic. o7
Loriana Oreless	Posted - 2009.09.09 20:06:00 - [15] Good one sir nice to finally see an actual successful "criminal" in c&p. There have been a overwhelming amount of less competent wannabees and bad scams here lately. Ill take my hat of to you, thou one realy should rather give the "victim" a boot up the hiny.

Barbara Nichole Cryogenic Consultancy Black Sun Alliance	Posted - 2009.09.09 21:51:00 - [17] I admit this story was worth telling; there have been so many lame capers recently. Way to mobilize! Congratulations on the capital gain.
Jolla Skyia	Posted - 2009.09.09 23:03:00 - [18] Edited by: Jolla Skyia on 09/09/2009 23:03:54 Orca's are quite useful for transporting rigged ships and giving gang bonuses.. can run 3 gang links and they don't have be be mining links . If you have the time, there is no reason not to train for one IMO, assuming you have the need to move ships and so on..
Lix Titrax 24th Imperial Crusade	Posted - 2009.09.09 23:14:00 - [19] Nice haul. I would love to see the chatlogs/eve-mails.
Jared D'Uroth Minmatar Universal Peace Operation	Posted - 2009.09.10 01:10:00 - [20] +10 points for stealing an orca -3 for not self destructing it in front of him. Or at least pretending to. === Quote: I think the point [of t3] was that your foes would never know how you were fit, adding the element of surprise. Like, surprise!!! I decided to go with EHP and DPS.
Agent Known	Posted - 2009.09.10 04:18:00 - [21] I guess he never heard of password protecting it...because you can (I think). You are going too fast! Wait five minutes and try again. You are going too fast! Wait five minutes and try again. Time flux perfectly strikes you, dealing 5 MINUTES of damage. Mouse is out of control On another note, I also have an annoying sig. inaftertimeflux
Fig Jam	Posted - 2009.09.10 06:12:00 - [22] Originally by: Agent Known I guess he never heard of password protecting it...because you can (I think). Yeah, you just right click on your ship and enter the starbase password before you eject Everybody should know this.

Yeah gotta love game mechanics and people who actually knows them. If you had any knowledge of boarding and leaving ships, you would know that the owner can indeed enter a ship while it is targeted.
omgdutch2005 Gallente Advanced Planetary Exports Intergalactic Exports Group	Posted - 2009.09.10 11:47:00 - [24] lol nice, next time try to fraps it, waaay funnier :)
Dominatus Crispus Gallente Nation of Muppets	Posted - 2009.09.10 15:18:00 - [25] Originally by: Grunanca Yeah gotta love game mechanics and people who actually knows them. If you had any knowledge of boarding and leaving ships, you would know that the owner can indeed enter a ship while it is targeted. quoted as tis the truth... we stole an orca in a simular fashion many many moons ago, however our first attempt failed because the owner boarded, scoped his hulk and left all while we had his orca targeted... however, on our next attmept, we used covert ops and didn't alert him of our presence until our orca pilot arrived, at which point all he could do was watch his orca fly away without him.

Davinel Lulinvega	Posted - 2009.09.10 15:38:00 - [26] Should have suicided that hulk. Originally by: CCP Tuxford Now the op looks like a weirdo that can't read kekekeke! inb4 stealth edit

Video of an orca getting stolen; not the incident mentioned in the OP: Orca Steal Ifly
Max Thorus	Posted - 2009.09.10 16:06:00 - [28] I also managed to hijack 2 rigged Orcas of one guy. First time I sold back and the 2nd time I kept it. Also got a Caldari Freighter skillbook of the Corp Hangar and it was almost full with ore.
Manu Hermanus FaDoyToy	Posted - 2009.09.10 16:32:00 - [29] ... I guess i really should train for an orca (... ffs I could fly one on the test server when the were about to come out then they changed the prereqs )
