As for the "Agents", you're all just puppets. You're bored players looking for something to do, and since hisec suicide ganking is a "fun" and low-risk activity, it's become popular for kids who would otherwise be out in public tripping old ladies as they cross the street. The actual Code itself, along with all it's ridiculousness, is a large part for the attention it gets on the forums.
When it comes to having real in-game ramifications, the New Order isn't even a boil on the ass of the overall economy. You're less than pocket lint. I realize you all have delusions of grandeur, but by James315 turning all of this into some kind of political platform, it just undermines what he was trying to achieve in my opinion. It's gotten away from what it really is: amusement for the PvP-impaired, to an agenda to fundamentally change the game.

Despite what the forum warriors (is this respectable pvp?) say about us, bumping and ganking are not the point of the New Order. Enforcing The New Halaima Code of Conduct is the point. And we are doing it. When we say we control a system we mean we can stop any player from mining that we choose to. And we do. Whether its knocking him across an ice field or blasting his ship into little pieces we make THAT player do as we say.
We don't need the respect of some hipster **@* poster on the forums. We don't even actually want anyone's respect. We want them to UNDERSTAND why its happening, but they don't have to like it. We want them to RECOGNIZE that they can't stop us exactly because of the changes to highsec they demanded. We want to SHOVE the consequences of the EHP buff, the ore hold expansion, CRIMEWATCH II and every other nerf to highsec pvp down their throats until they strangle on it.
That's why we don't mind insults, in the forums, in the blogs and in local. Every bump hurt miner is that much closer to realizing the truth. Every raging, meltdown in local is proof of their futility. Every threatened wardec that doesn't materialize is another chip into their willful ignorance of what Eve is supposed to be and what it is becoming. You think you are feeling disdain, anger, contempt. What you are really feeling is fear.
If you think James has now turned this into something different... well, this is just you finally recognizing what it was all along.
So, look at where the New Order was a few months ago. And look at us now. We are winning.
