This is another one of those "what not to do" tutorials for those of you dumb enough to think of something like our bored corporation did.
First off, if you band up in a gang of 16 people and all leap into shuttles, grab about 100 units of tritanium and go out to a core Empire trading system and then upon a freighter warping to a gate, you ram the freighter from all sides and drop cans around it thus making it unable to really go anywhere, it's basicly stuck.
This works in 0.0 or lowsec systems if you are lucky to spot a bloody freighter in space and you want to keep it from getting to a gate or warping off until you get a party able to wreck the freighter.
HOWEVER, performing this act in highsec space or basicly in an empire prime trade route, it files into the category of "gate blocking", which, you are not allowed to do.
Our gang figured that out the hard way (which is partly why I'm posting this here).
It was lovely Valentine's Day, the sweet 14th of Febuary when our gang of bored nerds (me included) were all around Empire space trying to think of something to do. One of us, suggests we perform a "Shuttle Op". This, being new, we're all up for the idea. It involves messing with people (primarily macrominers or afk miners) in shuttles. Well, we quickly get bored of that. As we approuch the next gate, one of us spots a Freighter approuching the gate... It takes forever to get to the gate and jump out, mainly with all it's low agility. .....Evil ideas come to mind. So then, we wonder, as we watch a ship get caught up on a cargo can that maybe... A freighter... We all go and grab 100 units of tritanium and put it in our holds, we warp all to the gate in all our shuttles and wait. A freighter pops up. We engage, we all ram him but really just go "boink!" on it's hull, we can't seem to knock it about. 2nd step, we deployed cargo cans around it and continued to ram it as it tried to move around it. We open a private channel and ask for like... 0.10isk-1,000,000isk to support the Girl Scout "Nohauling" Act of 2006. Since the things were worth much more, costed much more, we weren't concered of the isk, we more were just laughing left and right for countless hours doing this. We did this to about 3 other freighters before we noticed one thing. It was about three hours later that our gang lead suddently disappeared from sight. He claimed he was slightly lagged and he claimed he found himself nearlly 20 jumps from where we were just then. A sudden warp to another system? Another one of us disappears... 2 of us disappear... 3... Only one thing could have caused such an event. I felt the sky above me thunder and as if God himself spoke the words, it dawned on us. I began yelling in local, "GM ATTACK!!! AAAAAUuuuuuugghhh!!! Run! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!! THE GMs GOT US ALL, Nooooooo!!!!" By now, we all split, we all run but there is no hope... GM Swoosh was kind enough to let us know too. GM Sw00sh (on the local channel): "Don't run. I'll move you." Noooooooooooo.....*POP*
I appear in Pator, like, 23 jumps away. I got a nice little mail too from the event from Sw00sh stating that what we were doing was violating the rules and was considered "gate blocking". We didn't know this, we didn't expect any of that to happen, let alone interaction with a GM in local... Amazing. I was tempted to contact Sw00sh for giggles and laughs but... We weren't exactly sure if we were going to be banned for eternity or so from the event.
So please note, despite this story and the thought of petitons stating pirating shuttles in highsec space vs. freighters and winning is hilarious, the concept is wrong and noted by the other GMs for future use. So, future people performing it may not get off as easy as we did.
However... Hopefully we were dumb enough to be the first ones to try it, maybe put a new entry in the rulebook. We got lots of pictures off it too and even a few Fraps clips.
And it is a hilarious story... ___ _"Akkubai Angels" - Book 1 of My EVE Novel_ |

Seems like if you cleaned up your cans after each freighter, and then did it again to the next one, it would be a valid tactic to ransom freighters in empire.
But if you just left a wall of cans out there, yeah, that would be a problem.
Is it just me or do frieghters have a big "COME MESS WITH ME" sign painted on them?
But realistically, you probably did this in a hub system, and anything goes to prevent lag, I guess. -- My drones are about as smart as a smartbomb. |

Nice story, sounds pretty funny! Please post the fraps vids, I gotta see this.
I don't really understand why this is a violation that required GMs, however. It's just players having a bit of fun with the game mechanics. If it had been me in that frieghter, I think I would have been laughing so hard I would have paid you just for the comedy value...

That can spamming incedent was somewhat amusing, but it's been done before..
What it really amounts to is making it a pain in the ass for certain high sec highway pilots.. Which I guess was your goal. Which is fine by me, I could care less about that. What kind of sucks about it though, is that GM Swoosh had to go and play space janitor for a bit, when he/she could of been doing something more important. I think to only thing worse than this are people who petition spam (same people who act like internet lawyers :D)
Besides there are much more entertaining things to do, if you are really that bored, grab some cheap ships and go terrorize miners in lowsec.
My domi is pretty ugly It's tech II drones do the deed. And that thorax ramming me fits oh so snugly. I surely hope this poem made your ears bleed. |

Personally I don't see a problem with shaking down a freighter for ISK. They don't like it then they can use instas, or is that an exploit also? Anybody hear of escorts? Most folks with a freighter can afford friends. Pull the cans and rumble if you don't freaking like it.
Seems like anything you do in 0.5 and up is an exploit or grief if it someone doesn't like it. You can suicide gank people but not stop a freighter? jeez people.

Kill list on an alt account so what, Freighter pilot can War Dec anybody not in a noob corp, OP included. Noone in a freighter is a noob or broke, they don't need CCP to baby sit them through empire. If a bunch of tards want to hang up a freighter and ransom I say rock on. It takes alot more time, effort and team work then ganking miners in low sec.

Wouldn't this work as an odd way to hold someone in space? Do it in a 0.0 Zone with a Pirate.
When you have the Freighter "Held" ransom them. If they don't pay, have your pirate hit em and blow em.
If it's co-ordinated right, it could be a PvP tactic. Low risk as all you risk is a shuttle, and a Can of Trit. 10 Shuttles, and say a BS for damage.

To the OP:
Actually, imho the tactic you describe was an exploit, i.e. using game mechanics to advantage. If the target was really flying a freighter (with a mass of about a million tonnes and shields and armour better than a battleship) he would just keep going and bulldoze your cans and tin-can shuttles out of the way. Probably effortlessly destroying both in the process.
But because the game doesn't allow for collisions having any effect, you got away with it until another game mechanic (the GM using his godlike powers) did you in.
You were lucky not to get banned. Actions can and do have consequences. Deal with it.

I thought it was a nice little story and prolly a right laugh on TS as well as you watch those Cearbear Bohemoths flownder around like beached whales 
It reminds me of when there was the shieva patch a while ago and you could bump things for miles...Picture this...
Ring of Mining barges around 2-3 cans like a wild west wagon train to protect from ore thieves and then a shuttle casualy positions itself about 15-20 past them in line with a station. The Barges "close ranks" expecting a hauler to come and try and nick their ore and instead an Apoc warps in and skittles them MILES in all directions. HAHAHAHAHA We got a warning for that one too.
And as far as "In RL It would do so and so..." goes.....Blaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

I personally found this quite hilarious. If you can't see the comedy in doing something like this, you either take EVE way too seriously, or desperately need a sense of humour. If I was in that Freighter I probably would have be laffing my a** off. And I would have given the "pirates" a bonus for doing something like that. It would have made my day.

I love it, a good way to mess with the carebears. Those who get upset about this sort of thing are those who take eve and themselves way to seriously.
I once orbited a slasher around a freighter while he approached a gate, he got very upset and smaked on local about what an ***hole I was. I didnt target lock or ram him, just orbited while waiting on a friend.
I will have to remember this tactic for my future carebear harrassment.

Can ransoms have to be the single weakest idea ever. Its funny the first time, but when people start doing it regularly, it's the same level of mind numbing stupidity as drive-by-carpentry in UO, where roving gangs or malicious carpenters would surround an unsuspecting player and build furniture all around him so he couldn't move. The only way out was to petition a GM.
It's not working as intended, its exploiting a weakness in the physics engine.
Don't get me wrong, i'm hardly a carebear, but exploiting is such a cheap way of compensating for an complete lack of ability. It's only a game, why bother cheating?
no skills, just luck.

Wow? You are ranting like me about warp core stabs, lol.
However just so everyone knows I can't even fly a freighter. Tash-Murkon was a pretty nasty set-up, I personally lost one ship down there... Not really sure what any of that has to do with this post.

Your right it wasnt a freighter I meant a hauler full of goodies for at least 5 battleships. But since you wanna brag about 115mil isk that you contributed to with 6 other guys. I'll see that everybody sees how much stuff you lost. What you did to Hearo was no balls either and then using fraps for something like that is pretty sad. Legion of the Spoon never did that but they sure owned you and Seth Gunn. Hence another guy with no balls. You've all been neutered at birth.

Yes, I lost a hauler full of about 400mil isk in minerals during the first major war I was a part of? Haha, I learned my lesson. I haven't lost a hauler since. Undertovv I really think you need to get your information correct about our dealings with Spoon. Spoons has lost about 70 ships to us verses the 15 we have lost to them.
None of you ever dare tread into our space? We go up and kill your members with impunity (even though it is 15 jumps away from us). The only people that have even tried to attack us are the spoons alt corp "knights of chaos". After they take heavy casualties they all just log in space and switch back to their main accounts.
Seriously Undertovv, come take it out in game. You know where I can be found :)

Well Commander Nikolas since you want to be such a panzy. I dare you to come to my system by yourself. I know you won't. But maybe you will find an organ donor to give you a pair of balls perhaps?

Originally by: Commander Nikolas Yes, I lost a hauler full of about 400mil isk in minerals during the first major war I was a part of? Haha, I learned my lesson. I haven't lost a hauler since. Undertovv I really think you need to get your information correct about our dealings with Spoon. Spoons has lost about 70 ships to us verses the 15 we have lost to them.
None of you ever dare tread into our space? We go up and kill your members with impunity (even though it is 15 jumps away from us). The only people that have even tried to attack us are the spoons alt corp "knights of chaos". After they take heavy casualties they all just log in space and switch back to their main accounts.
Seriously Undertovv, come take it out in game. You know where I can be found :)
Hah not this idiot again ... last time you came, you died and you ran - Post some killmails of these "70 ships" - I dont believe we've actually lost 70 ships throughout the game...
Come back and die some more - we're waiting
EVEN Better - On the killboard YOU have a signature for - you dont have ANY kills on us at all....
Not seeing your 70 kills on us in Battleclinic either ... Nor killboard.eve-extra.com
Well I officially declare BS :)

Oscar thinks that Nic has fundermental clone damage from being podded too many times. Spoon has yet to loose a ship to any of you fools! The only engagement we had with you resulted in the total annihalation of your fleet. But i suppose if you cant defeat us in the game you can always just make stuff up on the forums and pretend like your a badass! To be honest man i dont think anyone really beleives you and to top it all from reading the everyones posts i dont think any one likes you either. But whatever floats your boat.

Originally by: Commander Nikolas This should be 100% legit. You can suicide on haulers in high sec you should be able to can ransom freighters. Seriously... you should be able to blow up NPC stations as well. I don't care about taking them over... blowing them up would be good enough :).
DOWN WITH JITA!
Quit *****ing kid. Until the day comes when we can bump cans, it's not going to happen. If you need to use cans to pirate and ransom(and you do it in hi-sec), then you're simply a pathetic little *****.

Edited by: Commander Nikolas on 11/03/2006 11:52:06 Ok this is getting a bit out of hand. Please start a "We want to smack/fight Commander Nikolas" Thread. You guys are working way to hard to hijack this thread just make a new one specifically for my enemies to hang out.
To -> The alt poster
Who are you? I would check killboards if you honestly beleive what you said. If you look at TFRC/OOTSS/A-I-L vs TLOS/KOC you will see very clearly that my numbers were acurate. However, I suspect that you simply posted that with an alt just to flame.
To -> Ajax & Oscar
I am really gald to see that Je'hira Osiris (Ajax Osiris) and Gyle (Oscar Kain) decided to post in this thread. Why? I have no clue, but it was good for a laugh.
To summerize our last to fights:
#1: 6 (KOC & Broken Dreams) vs 5 (AIL). KOC & Broken Dreams had a Raven, Retribution, Stilleto, Ferox, Caracel, Mulus. AIL had 2x Wolf, Manticore, Harpy, Punisher.
We killed the Ret, Stilleto, Mulus, 2x Pods. The rest fled. No losses to AIL.
#2 4 (KOC & Broken Dreams) vs 2 (AIL). KOC & Broken dreams had Blackbird (yes configed to jam), Retribution, Claw, Omen. AIL had Wolf, Harpy.
We killed the Ret and Omen, the rest fled. No losses to AIL.
To -> Undertovv
Why would I want to come down to Tash area again? We went down there initally to just have fun blowing up Knights of Chaos/Spoon. We did that. We went down there a second time under contract, "the alliance" we were being paid by was being hishonest and got the whole fleet ganked.
Not to mention you know full well it is 27 jumps for most of us to come to Tesh because of our SS. It is only 10 for you to go through high sec.
If you want to 1 vs 1 me then just pick the ship class mate.
To -> Spoon
I put your offer as a vote up on the forums. Could you please eve-mail me the "rules" and system. Nobody wants to cast a vote until they have that information.
To -> Everyone
I am not some Mafia don that goes around ordering peoples death. Alot of people seem to be confused about that. As a director for OOTSS things were run based on informal votes (for my responsibilities as a director). AIL as a corporation is run 100% democratically (mostly through time consuming forum votes).
People seem to have this weird idea that I all alone establish the corps policies and choose the corps targets. This creates alot of very odd situations like with undertovv here. Did you ever think that maybe I wasn't the one that wanted you dead? That maybe I couldn't care less?
Maybe you should convo some of the people you really angered/threatened to kill and have this conversation with them?
In general... look at it like this. Yes, maybe I was the one that killed you. Maybe I was the one that led the operation that killed you or your mates. However ALL members and directors have an equal say in who gets the red minus. I will be honest, I personally have only selected/gotten passed a small majority of the corps/people we have hit.
So please... it really isn't personal. You really don't need to hijack threads to address it with me. In all likly hood I am the last person to talk to about WHY you were killed, I will only know about HOW you were killed.

Ok... lets give this a shot.
On the last three engagments with spoon, ootss/arcana lost 18,747 battle ships and 58 dreadnaughts. In total Comander nik has been podded 34 million eight hundred thousand times.
Wow that was easyer than i thought. All you really do is just imagin how many casualties actualy could have been sustained (had ootss actuly had the resourses). Seriously though it does prove a good point. That all you have to do to sound like your actualy really good at this game is just make up some impossible statistics and hope that people who read it actually beleive you. Although i have to say my statistics are so much closer to the truth then yours nik.
As for your later statement about ootss target choice, I really think you need to re-assess your own inportance in the realm of EVE. You talk of the target choices that ootss made in such an over inflated manner, its almost as if ootss or arcana were actualy combat effective in some way. I mean if all that were so spoon wouldnt have chased you out of Sukanan, Chaos wouldnt have defeated ootss and you yourself wouldnt have lost 7 domi's in less than a month. But unfortunately spoon did annhialate your fleet. Chaos DID defeat ootss and run them out (despite what you will no doubt claim after this post). And you and your comrades DID loose engagement after engagement to opponants that you greatly outnumbered.
I understand that this must be a difficult concept for you and that this deep routed denial has woven itself into the very fabric of your sole. But if you would just come to terms with it and set aside your own narcissism for a moment you might just be abel to get past all this and move on with your life.
As for hijacking your thread, it wasnt us who moved the topic on to your losses. I beleive nither I nor Ajax entered this thread until you started making things up to gain back some of your lost dignity. I am sorry that you feel you are being unduly smacked but to be honest mate you really bring it upon yourself when you start making things up.
Any way I have said enough. you will hear no more from me on the subject... (Unless Nik doesnt get the message and starts Making things up again )

Alright, when killboards get sighted you simply make things up. You can continue to say whatever you want. I am not going to post in this thread any further in regards to Undertovv, Knights of Chaos, and Spoon.
Anyone can check battleclinic or podbase and evaluate the validity of my information.
You guys seriously need to get some self control. Take your aggression out in game...

Lets get the facts stright. Spoon and what ever alt corp you may be talking of are not related in any way other then people... BUT!! CCP has made the game so as that the people can play as 3 diffrent races.. roles.. what ever.. So this is what i see. Commander nik. you are a sore loser. You blame you loses from what ever wars you might be fighting on one character on spoon for no reason other them you have to place the blam on some one else. You are full of it. You have nothing to back up your claims. I am a director of Spoon. I know the corp inside and out, and i know every major engament the corp has been in.
Commander nik, i am sorry but you are a liar. I am calling you out right here. You can say what ever it is, but you have only faced us as in spoon in 1 engagment ever, and that is only cuz you have it in your thick skull that spoon is connected with this alt corp, and you are wrong and it resulted in your complete and utter destruction in ordat. you lost like 5 ships and a few pods and then you have never been seen from again.
I am not trying to be rude, but man you need to get over it. If you are ebing attacked leave it those who are attacking you. Spoon has ntohing to do with you and you know it. We are bust enough in our area doing our own thing.
as i write this.. i am feeling less and less sympathtics for you commander nik. i started off trying to settle this. but man. you just cant get it in your head do you? Spoon is anti pirate. and we mean you no harm. We have faithful follower and dozens of corps and well known allainces that know us. HUZZAH/CVA/ISS and more all know us a faithfull anti pirates. and again as i write this i get a bit agered that you want to blwo this out of praportion. You claim to have destroied what .. 70 of our ships. It is lies, and you know it. I hate comming on the forums.. i have played this game for like 2 years and think this is my 4th appearance on the eve forume. You anger me commander nik. Spoon likes to fight, but we like to fight for a cause... all can say is leave it to the character in the game.. not ther person. Fight the alt corp not spoon. Spoon has nothing to do with them, but if you want and you come to our home again for a 2nd round i am sure you wont have a plesent time..... I am done with hearing about you and the forums.. please dont make me come back on here and embares you in front of the galaxy... cuz ya know what.. i will... and i wont have a problem doing it.. leave spoon alone and move on with your own porblems

I checked your claims on battleclinic and podbase, but neither killboard has registered ANY killmails by OOTSS or AIL against TLOS. I fail to see how these boards suport that you killed 70 ships from TLOS.

I mean come on Nikolas if you didnt like me at least you could have ask me to fight you at a planet in Goinard instead of staging the most lamest kill ever. 4 battleships 1 ferox and a inty? Dude thats more sad than your mom having you. The worst thing is that he takes full credit for it lol. Kind of reminds you of a guy in a movie with no balls lifting his gun up in the air and closes his eyes and fires. But something behind him takes the thing out and he opens his eyes and thinks he did it lol.

EVE needs some sort of 'offical' killboard, because player-run ones can be easily abused, and alot of people know this. Saying to check a killboard generally isn't that great of a way to confirm 'validity' due to the abuse some have used.

... This is a game dude, calm down. Everybody gets ganked now and again you need to learn to deal with it.
You were thrown out of OOTSS for making comments like this to other corp members and RL threats. You need to learn to deal with what happens to you in eve better.
