xSLINKYx Gallente Concealed Judgement	Posted - 2007.02.14 00:44:00 - [1] Well today when I logged into my account and checked my eve-mail I noticed that the alliance Fatal Persuasion and the corp Veto had declared war on my corp. In a panic I flooded the corp channel trying to figure out what is going on. Turns out that one of my corp mates had called someone a "dipstick" after having his industrial destroyed outside a station. Heres the convo ChowBoi > yes? Naphtalia > Did you call me a dipstick? ChowBoi > did you attack me as I was undocking the station? Naphtalia > Yes ChowBoi > then I suppose I did Naphtalia > Then I suppose I'd like you to appologize ChowBoi > oh, appologise for the unprovoked attack? Naphtalia > No, I want you to appologize for calling me a dip** ChowBoi > I did not call you a dip, I called you a dipstick Naphtalia > will you appologize? ChowBoi > appologise for attacking me Naphtalia > APPOLOGIZE FOR CALLING ME A DIPSTICK! ChowBoi > you first Naphtalia > Sent through evemail *At this time they declared war*** ChowBoi > thats nice ChowBoi > your maturity is quite astounding Naphtalia > You started calling names, sir.. Naphtalia > will you appologize now? ChowBoi > you laid the first blow Naphtalia > I attacked you in lowsecurity space Naphtalia > As is propper when two vessels encouter eachother.. you had profit I want it... Naphtalia > You insulted me.. ChowBoi > but that is much akin to gate camping ChowBoi > suppose I said I had a rather high opinion of dipsticks in general Naphtalia > yes, we do that a lot as well Naphtalia > Suppose you refund the 50mil and appologize, and we forget this ever happened? ChowBoi > pardon me while I look at both sides of the argument Naphtalia > you went to pirate territory and insulted me for being a pirate.. and then you failed to appologize.. Naphtalia > I have stated my terms, if you don't wish to take them I wish you a profitable week, citizen ChowBoi > wait one second ChowBoi > I did not insult you for being a pirate ChowBoi > it isn't written that pirates have to attack anyone and everyone they see without provocation Naphtalia > only if they are in fat profitable haulers Naphtalia > and stuck in warp... ready for harvesting ChowBoi > If I was out in a belt, I wouldn't have said anything at all (as I would have been attempting to flee) ChowBoi > lol, actually, I was empty Naphtalia > Anyways, I felt insulted, I simply wanted an appology, and now we are at war.. Naphtalia > I wish you a profitable week citizen Naphtalia > You had nice stuff in your lowslots ChowBoi > expanded cargoholds? ChowBoi > did you scan the right ship? ChowBoi > they sell for 25k each Naphtalia > I see.. well it was worth the risk.. Naphtalia > 50mil to cover the declaration of war + an appology and we forget about it Naphtalia > otherwise a profitable week to you citizen ChowBoi > well, in the interests of galactic peace, I will retain the opinion that station camping is not an act that I approve of ChowBoi > but, it is your decision as to your own actions ChowBoi > I appologise for calling you a dipstick Naphtalia > Thank you, I accept your appology
Aeryn Davenport Claflin Industries	Posted - 2007.02.14 00:51:00 - [2] I think this highlights the need to increase the cost of declaring war. 50 million is a joke for anyone who has played the game for a decent amount of time. It should be like 500 million, minimum. So, did they retract the war after the apology? Or are they waiting to get paid back?
Reverend Revelator Elite Storm Enterprises Storm Armada	Posted - 2007.02.14 00:51:00 - [3] Absolutely classic, this so completely sums up what EVE is about, CCP should include it in their marketing. I especially loved the last part, nice twist at the end there. -- Dead People Laugh At The Murder Of Love --
EPSILON DELTA	Posted - 2007.02.14 00:53:00 - [4] Go back to NPC corp and watch the whines on the forum -------------------------------------------------- Yes I'm a forum alt, what you going to do about it?

Frug Zenithal Harvest	Posted - 2007.02.14 00:55:00 - [6] What kind of a whiney arsed pirate cries about being called a dipstick? Especially after trying to blow up your ship? - - - - - - - - - - Do not use dotted lines - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - or automatic signatures - - - - - - - -
Patch86 Di-Tron Heavy Industries Freelancer Alliance	Posted - 2007.02.14 00:56:00 - [7] You didn't send him the 50 million did you? For shame! Funny stuff though. Bless his piratey socks....... Do you think he knows that a dip stick is the thing you check your car's oil with? -------- Originally by: Constantine Arcanum most problems can be solved with chloroform.
Saint Battalion Decepticons of War	Posted - 2007.02.14 00:56:00 - [8] WTB Box strong enough to contain Naphtalia's ego. Oh and IBTL AlL YoUr T2bpO aRe BeLoNG tO uS!
ChowBoi Caldari Concealed Judgement	Posted - 2007.02.14 01:01:00 - [9] 3 points of clarification. 1. My indy wasn't destroyed, just scratched. I was able to hop back into the station. 2. here is what I said in local that upset her: [ 2007.02.13 18:01:00 ] ChowBoi > oh come off it [ 2007.02.13 18:01:22 ] ChowBoi > lol, what a dipstick [ 2007.02.13 18:01:29 ] ChowBoi > attack me coming out of the station 3. And the final part of the conversation: [ 2007.02.13 18:18:34 ] Naphtalia > Thank you, I accept your appology [ 2007.02.13 18:26:18 ] Naphtalia > as soon as you xfer 50mil I will drop the war [ 2007.02.13 18:30:33 ] ChowBoi > Oh, I assure you that will not happen There is a lot more between myself, my CEO, herself and her fiance but I don't feel that I would be correct in posting it.
Novina Agrari	Posted - 2007.02.14 01:02:00 - [10] Originally by: Aeryn Davenport I think this highlights the need to increase the cost of declaring war. And I suppose this highlights the fun value of calling someone a dipstick!

"If God be for us, whom can be against us?"
Naphtalia Caldari The Black Rabbits Fatal Persuasion	Posted - 2007.02.14 01:04:00 - [12] Originally by: ChowBoi There is a lot more between myself, my CEO, herself and her fiance but I don't feel that I would be correct in posting it. Hmmm but those had to best parts.. but yeah, it isn't nice to post these IC conversations on an OOC forum, but we already had eshtablished your intelligence I think. This is eve.. eve has consequences.. I was kind.. offered to get of with just an appology.. you didn't take it.. then used the only tool eve offers which is the shiney wardec button.. now stop whining and grow a spine and bring it.. recruitment

hotgirl933	Posted - 2007.02.14 01:06:00 - [14] some corps just look for any excuse - hire some mercs to harass em or go the privateer route

I did not post our conversation, someone else did. I eve-mailed it to my corp so everyone knew the reason we were at war. The funniest thing is that you never threatened war. You are like the person at the shopping mall that gets upset with someone for some small reason and then decides to shoot them in the head with no warning. Its totally irrational. But it was your choice.
SN3263827 The Black Rabbits Fatal Persuasion	Posted - 2007.02.14 01:14:00 - [16] We've declared war over less. It is not Black Rabbits policy to camp stations, but if a target of opportunity presents itself while we are outside a station then of course we will engage it. The target's response determines any further actions we may take. We would be happy to arrange an instalment plan if a lump sum is insurmountable at present. _____________________________________________

Have a profitable week citizen But to be honest the whining starts to annoy me a bit. recruitment
ChowBoi Caldari Concealed Judgement	Posted - 2007.02.14 01:29:00 - [18] Yeah, I was in a hauler with nothing in it except 25k ISK cargo extenders. She admitted to lying about scanning me. She jumped me as I was lagged exiting a station trying to warp to a gate. She overreacted because she couldn't take a minor verbal assault after her major physical assault of me in game. You would think someone with -10 security status would have a thicker skin.
Imas Pi	Posted - 2007.02.14 01:30:00 - [19] Best IC convos I've seen in awhile.
ChowBoi Caldari Concealed Judgement	Posted - 2007.02.14 01:35:00 - [20] Whining? I don't think anyone has been wining. I have yet to hear one "Oh please don't attack us." I think you are confusing 'whining' with people thinking you overreacted and they are laughing at your super inflated ego. None of us wants to go to war, especially over something as asinine as your reasoning. But we will never pay you for your own stupid decision. So suck it up, admit that you overreacted, remove the wardec and go on with your life. Or, pursue a war that will waste your corp-mates time and money all over your fragile ego.
oolie	Posted - 2007.02.14 01:35:00 - [21] EVE is full of angry little kids ready to explode at a moment's notice. Silence is the best policy when anyone besides sure friends (corp/alliance members) are involved.
Yakoff Star Scream Inc. Tactical Narcotics Team	Posted - 2007.02.14 01:38:00 - [22] Uhm, thought you were not allowed posting in game chats. BAN HIM!!!! /me grabs torch and incites the crowd to riot.
ChowBoi Caldari Concealed Judgement	Posted - 2007.02.14 01:41:00 - [23] Who do you ban?
Samirol Blood Sweat and Tears	Posted - 2007.02.14 01:44:00 - [24] go naphtalia!
Patch86 Di-Tron Heavy Industries Freelancer Alliance	Posted - 2007.02.14 01:45:00 - [25] Again.....dipstick = thing for checking engine oil........what am I missing? Calling someone a dipstick is a bit like "Rodney, you plonker!". Funny stuff -------- Originally by: Constantine Arcanum most problems can be solved with chloroform.
hotgirl933	Posted - 2007.02.14 01:46:00 - [26] head back to high sec with those sec status they wont touch u if youre really worried
Samirol Blood Sweat and Tears	Posted - 2007.02.14 01:47:00 - [27] Originally by: ChowBoi Who do you ban? you
hotgirl933	Posted - 2007.02.14 01:54:00 - [28] Originally by: Verone Originally by: Ruri get all the corp assets, and close shop then restart the corp with a slightly different name and get all your members back. Yes its cheap but i find it funny It's also an exploit. go NPC until the war is over then create the corp - avoid the exploit claims
ChowBoi Caldari Concealed Judgement	Posted - 2007.02.14 01:56:00 - [29] Originally by: Samirol Originally by: ChowBoi Who do you ban? you Me? Surely you jest :) I didn't post the conversation, someone else did.
