We are sad to announce that TTI have infact run off to hide among the pirates. Although they have used questionable buisiness tactics in the past, yesterdays fight against entrants into Venal alongside pirates of the like of Space Invaders and The Gang is apparently their latest. After just a short period of fights between our pilots and Taggart forces in the Lonetreck area it is now apparent that TTI have fled the scene to hide among other outcasts of society. Although I managed to find scattered TTI pilots who still straggled around empire space yesterday, the few that I found, docked, resigned from Taggart, and proceeded to "smacktalk" in local in an attempt to get me to attack them. Questionable tactics at best, and the fact that they tried to "ally themselves with Concord" as Ragnar put it, gives thought wether these kinda of tactics are just "lame", "spineless" or even an attempt at an "exploit". (I just consider it an extremely unoriginal gutless attempt to kill me)
Although we are in a strange kind of way satisfied with having run off a huge corp such as taggart using a battleship, some frigates, and a cruiser, it is a hollow one. We were hoping for more than the meek spineless opposition that Taggart presented us, yet instead we now have them talking big at us from behind a line of "hired" cut-throats. (Even though the Venal alliance denies any payment, the sudden change of mind of the members is quite confusing. If I remember correctly only 2 days ago TTI were supposedly bared from Venal for their previous spineless actions). It is laughable that TTI are actually requesting us to follow them into Venal where "the playing field is even", while in reality its just a lame attempt at having their henchman do the work for them. For the moment we will continue to hold empire space and fire on any TTI ships stupid enough to venture away from their guardians, while working on further plans that dont involve unwanted casualties.
In our eyes Taggart have progressed from being spineless buisinessmen, to common pirates. Your alliance with them makes you no different from their kind. You are scum, and when we have enough resources and people even an army of murderers wont protect you.
Yours truly [HARRR]

If today's patch means you can no longer run and hide in a station, we may well be paying you a visit. Your actions have highlighted that cowardly terrorist attacks on civilian miners can be a indeed nuisance, but one that's easily solved. I have to say your absense from 0.0 space is curious for such brave fighters.

Miso, I seem to think you are trying to organise a little rebellion (or empire perhaps) to go on a bit of a pirate mashing parade.
Hmmmmmmmmmm I look forward to knowing more.

Edited by: Shock on 30/07/2003 13:36:04 I am baffled bt the lack of actual resistance is putting up. Are the *****s finally becoming visible?
It must be their capitalistic view of things where the top guys are eager to tax their minions, but when the time comes for them to actually act, they pack their things and hire the help of pirates to do the dirty work...probably cheaper.
a +200 corp should be a powerful corp, if it wasn't for the lack of cohesion, moral fiber or organisation, TTI is showing us now.
If you only hadn't forgotten "With great power comes great responsiblity" I always found it rather annoying you were quick to evacuate pirate infested areas instead of actually doing something about it. And I think a lot of people feel the same way. I'm not saying I support HARRR, but I'm not supporting you either. I'm neutral...like a Swiss cheese...like you are most of the times...
I was alway a bit baffled by the fact that whereever I went I often saw single members of TTI. Is TTI perhaps nothing more then a verbose few, taxing a enourmous amount of silent freelancers who just are doing what ever they want? That would explain their current 'run and scatter' tactics. --- soonÖ |

TTI is not a fighting corporation. They are mainly traders and miners. The main thing is that there are so much of them. Stick a laser on a miner and the opponent laughs. Stick a laser on all 50 of em and the opponent creams his pants =

the thing about tti is that they have a few gm's and polaris playing for them. these guys know the weaknesses in the game very well and they use it to get rich. onle ONE such example is the robotics trading. thats how these guys got ahead so fast, they exploit a soft infrastructure to get ahead. now that they have so much cash and blueprints they can claim that they get all their money from sales etc so nothing can really be done but these guys are full of bullsh*t and very lame. now that people stand up to their underhanded ways they run. this is great.

OoC: ..is that after he finishes laughing at the Benny-Hill routine of them trying to work out which end is "the business end".

IC: Moving to Venal as a "strategic" move to combat the ability of Corps to "exploit" the weakness of the "War Limit Act" is a sound one.
The question for the TTi membership is whether or not the stains of pirate-appeasement will ever wash out of their clothing.
That's always been the problem with trying to wear all-white clothing, every stain will show.
Maybe TTi should change to wearing grey-suits?

All the customer support people I've seen until now didn't appear like EVE guru's with deep inside game knowledge at all. More like avarage players who happen to like helping other people.

Just incase anyone was questioning whiether or not TTi's movement into Venal is true, here is your proof:
http://home.inreach.com/daneq/
Thats the ingame page for the Venal Alliance, TTI is listed as an allied member..
Thanks go out to my sources ;)

Oh, and one last comment..
In the end, 7 people (entire Going Limp corp) drove TTI out of Lonetrek/Empire Space into Venal..
Maybe it was because of our "Energy Transferring Bestowers" or our "OMG h4x! Cap Drainers" that were only used once on an Apoc..
When Shintai repeatively docked as 10-12 TTI were attacking him, it was to repair ofc, thats not being cowardly.. thats called being smart; and in the end TTI fled from that excursion also..
SO, this to TTI:
Instead of slavedriving your miners to get ore for the slave driven builders, etc, etc.. and focusing on the "Master Plan" or "The Goal".. you should really re-organize and get some tactics down. Because for a 200+ corp that can't take care of 7 People, then you've got a problem. You depend on your Size and Reputation to hold you through, but after this.. I think people are going to see that TTI is nothing more then a newb harvesting machine.
Respectively, there are people in TTI who are great, and those of you know who you are (atleast IMO). Good luck to the rest of you..
Oh and Ragnar, you never told me.. In Ekura.. when we locked it down, did you manage to jump or did you log? =)
Have fun in Venal, you'll come back eventually.. And we'll be waiting.

You wanna make a claim like that, you better back it up! I think TTI is far from hurt at the moment.

I do however disagree with you Windstalker..
TTI where around since the beginning.. even in early beta.. so they've established a name for them.
Like normal players, people look to see "Whos the biggest" TTI ofc pops up on the radar, and with a fancy site, etc etc.. they get alot of recruits.
Being ex-polaris myself, and getting to know alot of Polaris Heads, etc.. people aren't about to abuse their powers to further gain for themselves/corp mates, because it will get traced and shut down fast ;)
TTI may be unorganized, but they aren't flat out dumb..

You're giving yourself so much credit for driving them out, while it was probably just the last straw that made them decide to move.

Arh..its lovely to see Space Invaders sucking up to their new allied.
For all the "exploits" lets summon up: Going Limp used: Cap drainers in empire space. Docked 4 times doing a 25mins battle with 12 TTI ships.
TTI used: ECM in empire space. Docked and changed corporation, only to smack talk and run off.
Either way, its 2-2. Shipcount is 21-1

TTI have always been mostly based out of Venal. The consolidation was in progress anyway, big corps don't do things overnight obviously. The official announcement a couple of days after we experienced some minor harassment in LT was largely coincidental.

Quote: the thing about tti is that they have a few gm's and polaris playing for them.
We in TTI are definitely that ebil and cheat like that - don't forget how TTI secretly hacked the servers to add twenty zeros to all our bank accounts.
Oh, and the baby asteroid problem? Well, TTI is cheating there too actually - the regular downtime every day is actually "TTI Time" when only TTI members are allowed to log in and mine, and we mine every asteroid down to just a little bit because we are just that ebil. Ebil I tell you!
And if you where wondering about the extended downtime today - well the truth is CCP is busy creating a whole new region of space, with absolutely no way to get to it, and moving all TTI members there, for us to madly 'sploit and mine, all the while being unreachable by Shintai and friends - because they are such meanies (and killed 5000 of our ships - Shintai is just being modest, of course!), and are interfering with our ebil plans. A small side effect will be that all the good asteroids of every current system are being moved to there. Ebil!
Oh yeah, and TTI is responsible for those CTDs everybody gets - what's happening is we wrote a program on the clients to sneak off with some of your isk for every transaction you do (you thought it was the market? wrong!). The trouble is the guy who wrote it was slightly drunk (with power, of course) and a weirdo with a thing for prime numbers, so he intentionally has your client crash any time the # of seconds since you loaded eve reaches one of several prime numbers. It's weird, I know, but still ebil, so it's cool with TTI.
Damn it feels good to finally admit to all TTI's ebilness. I've been hiding it all along, trying to put on this false facade of being a regular guy! Actually, I have to admit this is really just my ebilness - remember, TTI is a corp of individuals. I'm responsible as an individual for all of the ebil things above - even the perverse prime number thing. You wouldn't believe the pure ebil some of the rest of the guys do! |

eh she/he is sad to announce....
anyways, i dont know if anyone else has mentioned this fact:
Venal alliance isnt a pirate alliance. In fact only about 3 out of the 15 or so corps in the alliance have any sort of "pirating" history. My corp not one of them.
Time for a big stfukthx!
