Footfist Headknocker Englebarna	Posted - 2010.01.27 13:36:00 - [1] Posting from my friends alt to avoid problems. Yesterday ruined everything. I was helping a friend with her L4. I won't use her real char name but let's call her Jane. Jane's mission was in lowsec, but it was Angel Extra so we figured we could blitz through it real fast. I don't usually fly my machariel outside of highsec, and she'd been teasing me about it so I thought it would be just about the best chance I had to prove her wrong all at minimal risk. Sadly I was mistaken. We went to the last highsec system and Jane logged on her alt to scout the gate for pirates. The gate was clear and there was only a two week old guy in the system, so she logged back to her main and we jumped in together. That's when it all went down the drain. On the other side was an outlaw armageddon. He must have showed up just before we got ready to jump. Jane was panicking on vent and I felt my heart drop. We decided that whatever he had fit we could tank him because we were prepared for his damage type. Jane wanted us to turn and fly back to the gate, but I promised we could take him down. There's no telling what would have happened if we tried to run, but in afterthought it's probably what we should have done. We broke our cloak and started pummeling the pirate. He returned fire focusing on Jane's CNR, but he was into armour and her shields were still strong. My hands were shaking and I could hear blood pumping in my ears. For a while it looked like we'd make it, but before we knew it there were three more pirates on the overview. They came in a dominix, a typhoon and a frig. One of them were repairing the geddon so I yelled at Jane to go for the gate as fast as she could. I'd try hold their attention in the meantime by mocking them in local. She hadn't even made it to 10k of it before they cynoed in a thanatos at the gate. We lost both our ships and Jane was podded. I barely get away from the smartbombs on the typhoon. She was crying, and that's when I made the biggest mistake of my life. Jane logged off before I could say anything more, so I docked up at the only station in the system and began explaining what had happened to my corp. They got pretty worked up about it too. Our CEO, "Dave", told me to keep the pirates occupied and they would try to get there with a fleet to get revenge. We're only a 12 man corp, but Dave managed to convince some pvpers from our alliance to gang up with us. I don't either of us expected what happened next. I was having trouble getting the pirates to talk in local, but they were docked in the station with me now. I sent mails to the carrier pilot to keep him occupied. "Craig" and "Jim" from my corp was in our gang now. We also had a dread pilot from our alliance, his alt in a cyno frig and four hacs that were his support. It took them nearly an hour to get in place, but the pirates didn't move so we were feeling optimistic. Craig jumped in from highsec in a raven. The bait was set and catastrophe was unavoidable. Sure enough, the geddon was still on the gate. They started fighting at the gate and Jim jumped in in a drake. It didn't take long before the pirates in the station undocked. When my mates confirmed that they were coming to the gate, the hacs from our alliance jumped in to scramble the pirates. Shortly after we had Lennys alt in the system deploying setting up a cyno. Seconds later Lennys moros was in the fight. I was going to join them in a shuttle when I noticed local spike. I'm not sure if it was a thirdparty or allies of the pirates, but someone had cynoed in a capital fleet ontop of the gate. Right after he lost his dread, Lenny left the fleeting accusing us of setting him up. One of the hacs got away, but all the other ships were destroyed. In return we'd only managed to take down the first cyno frig. It was a tragedy, but the worst wasn't over yet.
Footfist Headknocker Englebarna	Posted - 2010.01.27 13:37:00 - [2] It would prove to be all for nothing though. After a long argument we were kicked out of the alliance. Now Dave was furious at me for the stuff had still had in their stations in 0.0. So to add insult to injury I got kicked from corp and blocked. Everything was falling down around me. I undocked the shuttle to return to highsec, but the typhoon from earlier got me on the gate. I wasn't only kicked when I was down, I was stomped and spit on. I respawned in Dodixie. Without my implants, without my mach, without my corp and having let Jane down. I don't even know where to start to try salvage something from this catastrophe.

But think about, you really think I'd trust a guy with that much fail with access to my account? ;) It'd be a pretty epic conclusion if he took me down with him though.
Footfist Headknocker Englebarna	Posted - 2010.01.27 14:22:00 - [4] Originally by: Oghma Grianainech -> Posting from my friends alt to avoid problems. Get ready for the ban hammer. Haxxing my neighbours account, who isn't really my friend but more of a dude who raids my fridge and plays xbox on my flatscreen, to avoid problems. Had I known the top sentence would be such a hit I'd have saved myself the trouble of including the rest of the story.
Footfist Headknocker Englebarna	Posted - 2010.01.27 16:17:00 - [5] Okay, my friend is Giribaldi. He changed some things around so it wouldn't be obvious to the people involved, and he'll probably deny any association. He's cool and I love him like a bro, but he's no Jodie Foster so I wouldn't give him my password. Anyway, I think he'd appreciate your support. He'll probably keep playing, but right now he's just sulking over it all.

The guy is a common idiot. As evidenced by the op. I'm sure he doesn't think of himself in that way, but yeah, that's without doubt him.
Footfist Headknocker Englebarna	Posted - 2010.01.28 14:31:00 - [7] Originally by: ISellThingz Can we have an update on Jane?? Has (s)he ever recovered or quit eve in an act of rage and desperation? Pretty sure it's a she. I've been on voice with them back when we were all in Noob Mercs, and that was before the voice-fonts patch. I saw she logged on last night. I'll ask Giri how things are going when I get home from work today, if he's not still upset with me for telling people his name.
