They once invited a guy into corp. Asked to check his Raven's set-up and stole the Raven from him... podded him... and then kicked him from the corp.
I've met people in Eve much worse than any mOo. Simply because they weren't around in Beta doesn't make them any less dangerous.
mOo was just a bunch of 'sploiters. Of course, sploit all you want... if you kick the crap of the Shattered Star Confederation (then in the Fountain Alliance) you're as cool as you can be with me! That corp was the worsed mistake I ever made...
edit- I also think mOo alts go around asking who mOo was just to hear about themselves =P

MOo used ever exploit you can imagine because ôthey couldö.
MOo had broken every law in the game so that most were -10 by the third month. This meant that they would rampage through 1.0 space slaughtering everyone and concord would not respond. Back then when you were at -10 you could not take a sec hit so if you podded 50 noobs it didnÆt matter or flag the police, once you at the bottom of the barrel there is no place else to go.
MOo were the laziest bunch of lamers ever see in a game, ruined EVE by switching the focus from Corp wars and team play by embedding the idea ôwhy work for any thing when CCP will provide everything to meö yes CCP was in trouble at that time so instead of nipping this in the bud they rewarded MOo by starting the Prat welfare program. You have to keep in mind that we are talking about a group that were billionaires 1 month into the game using such exploits as that ôtrist insurance bugö. so while most people playing EVE as advertised they were in BS rampaging through systems on killing sprees. They were at ôend gameö status so had nothing better to do but make life miserable ôbecause they couldö.
MOo and the ensuing Grifer bears not the so called ôcare bearsö are the reasons you have guns and guards at the gates, 0 tolerance from concord, etcà. Every modification such as a timer on jettison a can, nerf from the amount of drones you can control, well actually almost everything to can imagine was a response to MOo and the following ilk.
The ruined the game, not so much for what they did but because they forced the dev team focus on Prats. Think of it this way, all of you have been to the grocery store and seen that mom trying shop while that bratty kid is throwing a fit thus forcing mom to take the focus away from her task. Well with the upcoming Kali patch we will finally have where EVE was headed before MOo derailed the train.
Next time you are in public and see a bratty kid throwing a fit and acting badly (because he can) demanding they should have things their way, that is MOo and most of the games Griefers.
They should have been Banned the first time they bragged to a GM (and showed the GM the exploit) instead, like the mom that gives in, they were rewarded. Luckily I live in a state that allows spanking in public, so you will only see bratty kids act up once. The funny part is that when we have been in other states we have actually had strangers come up and complement us on how well mannered our kids are. I tell them thatÆs because our kids understand the risk of misbehaving. Risk vrs reward is a universal ideal to bad its no longer implemented in EVE.

Ah m0o, now thatÆs a ticker IÆve not heard of in a long time.
The days where they all came into empire space to defend a World Event Character against all the Minmatar that were sitting around with twitchy trigger fingers.
They definitely helped shape the world of Eve.

m0o was actually their Counter-Strike clan name. They aren't just famous in EVE-Online. If you don't know where m0o came from... well now you do.

A corp that included a lot of "exploiters" and "griefers" wnen the game had 800-3000 people online.
To get somewhere by cheating doesn't mean you ebil, just means your losers.
When they goin got tough and they had to play by the rules they quit.
Eves better off without the bad apples....

m0o were about when i first started eve (when we were excited that 7500 people were on at once), so i dont remember them all that well - was too busy being nooby for the most part....didnt they have ties to c0w as well?
I do know that they ended up fighting each other for a bit but i thought to start with c0w was like a training corp or something?

m0o...
...had the first battleship in EVE (Dominix)
...had the first battleship kill in EVE (Scorpion)
...put up a blockade in Mara/Passari that now has become legendary
...were once attacked by devs in CONCORD battleships, to clear them out
...destroyed the Gold Magnate
...got the first Imperial Issue Apocalypse kill
...sold a region to Techell
...roamed around pretty much uncontested for a while
...and, the coup de grace...
...probably sold more ships in the beginning of the game than most (or was that just Stavros?)
I used to love to hate them.

Somehow I find it typical that one of the most (in)famous corporations in EVE's history has (had) such a silly name.

How is opinion wrong? Not saying I agree one way or the other, I was active at the time, but I was still struggling in my probe to be able to afford a hoarder so that I could eventually work up to a rupture. (Pretty sad that I consider a rupture somewhat "disposable" now.)
How about your version to back it up? Yes, I have watched the videos, but they don't seem to address the part you state is wrong.

These guys were'nt in the business of getting involved in fights they could possibly lose, they stacked the odds massively in their own favour, and then stacked them a bit more just in case.
I remember being in a fleet of 30+ cruisers and a couple battleships going to go fight 6-7 m0o battleships in HED. We still managed to lose terribly.

Shame they have disbanded. I might never get the chance now to enact my long burning revenge. ;)
Never is a long time. If you need someone to hate now, FZN will be more than happy to relieve you of your ships.

Hahaha, so many abused nublars in this thread. Half of the claims here are utter bullcrap. Wrote up something long but I'd rather not argue with the likes of Wrangler and Bhaal about the stupidity of morality in online gaming.
Maybe one day, someone will get a hold of Stav and make him talk. m0o didn't build a rep over exploiting, they did it by slapping everyone mercilessly without regard for their feelings (and being the first to do everything ofc). Until then, flame on lamers :p

Glorify them if you must, but they were mostly players who tried to find ways to cheat.
At least in the very early days, they seemed to fill up with nubs later on, wanna-be bad guys if you will...

Few corrections:
No, m0o did not have the 1st battleship. One of the corps that routinely fought against them had it... honestly the name slips my mind atm.
Oh, yeah...Cornexant, I think.
j0rt's Dominix followed it pretty closely, as I recall. But yes, Cornexant were first.
I also remember m0o losing two Domis (Ywev and j0rt, iircc) to RUS's two Armageddons. First time more than one BS was destroyed?

That may well of been your experience. Mine however, along with a *LOT* of other relatively innocent pilots experience, was multiple battleships tanking each other whilst taking out industrial ships. And to make sure the advantage was complete, frigged the game mechanics by lagging the victims load time using mines.
Guess its a YMMV issue, hence the many posts on the subject.
And BTW, about your offer, its actually THANKS to the exeriences I had with m0o operations that I tend to generally avoid the whole business of people "relieving" me of my ships. Lessons hard learnt, but learnt all the same

Not glorifying anything, CCP did plenty of that. m0o didn't exist to cheat, or because of cheating and thats the simple truth.
Until everyone who played EVE during those times quits or dies you won't succeed in rewriting history. Sorry, nice try 
But you can start by explaining in detail how many m0o members were banned, and why if you like!

Lots of bitter people in this thread. Hell before I joined m0o, they scored my first BS loss. (thank you fairlane, omni, miz, and doctorstrangelove ) I was never bitter at them. They were good at what they did. I got the chance to join them and never turned back. They were honestly some of the best guys i ever met, and still chat to the ones i see, not in my corp.
As what thryr said, most are in BoB or FZN. Some others are in other corps. Some of the oldies are long gone now.
I may be mistaken, but if I rem right, Ywev did something of importance too. Cant rem exactly.

I like to remember Stavros more as a big anime fan. His favorite series were Sailor Moon and Princess Tu Tu.
(just kidding)
He is an anime fan though :)

Ywev podded himself or killed his own ship, or something like that, me thinks. others had to bring him a new one and he was the joke of the month, if i remember right...
but then again, its ages ago
