What's with the laugh at the end?? Retarded ... You get thrills because you killed some frigs and ruined a event, that's pirating? I repeat, retarded.

Pretty much says it all for me.
It's because of people like these that AURORA events also get set back or halted, that the ISD team organise.
Idiots who want nothing more than to wreck an organised event that was created for the enjoyment of the community.
Don't bother to try to talk to me about defining piracy, I've been pirating for 3 years now, and this is not piracy, it's plain out idiocy.
This is deffinately piracy and can even be fit in with roleplay. Pirates destroying an organised event, looting it and using suprise to cause havoc. All this is there. The point? Publicity, when someone receives a comms invite from these guys in te future they will be struck with fear and more obliged to pay.
As for Aurora events the reason they get et back or halted is they suck. When kehmor or viceroy or digitalcommunist hear about a haule travelling through space and are offered a chance to "escort" it their in game personalities would jump at this idea. If Aurora accomodated more for all sides of the game this wouldn't be a problem. When ISD make their events two sided (I.E. let the pirates join the other side, or they create pirate exclusive events I'll be more inclined not to grief them.
Don't bother to try to talk to me about defining piracy, I've been pirating for 3 years now, and this is definately piracy, it's plain out hilarious.
Just because an event "sucks" in your eyes, does not meen it sucks for others.
Again wrecking an event is pure stupidity, not piracy.
the event doesn't suck when i "wreck" it. Infact all I am doing is acting in character

You're not even an outlaw , what's your credibility as a pirate 
If Eve taught me something , it's that fundamentalist attitudes are rather pointless. It's bad enough to resist the pressure from metagaming , without having to stick to a rigid RP set or rules , let alone enforce it on other people of your trade.
Piracy isn't all about ISK , or even gaining ISK from others. It's about letting your predatory instincts loose. Are cats to blame when they don't eat the mice they caught ?
It is silly to pretend to have a "neutral" pirate character. Pirates are the bad guys. They enjoy nice loot from the wrecks of their victims , or the ISK they have extorted because they acquired it at another's expense. I'm not particulary flattered if I am given 1 million by some random generous / silly person , but receiving it from the helpless pilot under my crosshair makes my day.
I am disappointed by how out of context organized events can be. It is up to them to catch up with the current shape of the Eve world , because surely it won't adapt to arbitrary roleplay guidelines.
As for the frigate contest - how hard would it be to organize it in secure alliance space ? Lowsec is asking for trouble.

Unfortunatley for Verone, i do have to disagree with him on crashing game events. although i'll try my best to actually make a constructive argument.
Crashing events is perfectly fine, it allows for the roleplay side of things to be as dynamic as people expect from this game when they join. outcomes shouldn't be decided before the event has began, but moreso they should be "expected". For instance, in my section of low sec there are quite a few events in which an event corporation escorts a bestower through low sec and theres usually a group of people following it, RPing away and whatnot. now, im a pirate, and i dont personally care for roleplaying or roleplayers, and i choose to attack the event corporation and its cargo. I succeed in my task, i get a damn good fight out of it. When everyone goes home the story was that "while we were escorting the refugees, we were ambushed by a fleet of scoundrel pirates and the convoy was destroyed". It makes for a good event, and a good time. i didnt do it for the RP, i did it for the usual thrill of PVP, maybe a killmail or two and the possible contents of the bestower (like all real pirates) but everyone gets what they want out of it.
However, there is a line. Theres a difference between crashing an event and taking two battleships into a player-organised frigate tournament and then claiming your "awesomeness" for it. I personally dont think you did it for the killmails, the thrill of PVP (pitting battleships against frigates pretty much proves this one) nor do i think you did it out of sheer grief, but simply so you could make the forum post you have done bragging about your "achievments". maybe you're looking for respect from pirates? you wont get it from me. and the chances are you wont get it from any other respected pirates either.
I'm not saying i wouldnt have attacked the event, because i would have. but i most definatley would have done it for the thrill of PVP and taken in a ship or two that wouldve made it a challenge. probably a single assault frigate. and i most definatley wouldn't have posted my "awesomeness" for doing it.
This is what we look like when you jump into our camp. |

You're not up to date on current events, you might want to play the game and check up on what people are doing before you actively try and flame them on the forums.

Exactly.
Destroying an event in character would be a valid reason if there was profit for a pirate to be gained, or if there were in character motivations, for example a merc contract aganist a faction, or a caldari loyalist corp attempting to flatten a gurista raiding party.
Disruption of a player event like this, then posting with this attitude on the forums (i.e. omgOLoLoLOLoL We R TEH WREk EVENTZ AND KILl TEH NUBZ) is plain out disrupting an event, for no intention in character, and simply to grief the people taking part.
No excuse, and no "omg, i'm a pirate in character" crap holds water.

Er, why the hell is everyone at each others throats? This is a game. And, to be honest, it was quite funny what he did, and it WAS piracy.
Bit of a rash decision by the guy to say he's never going to run a frig tourney again though, it's not the end of the world. Just be more careful who you let in next time. And perhaps gang warp everyone back out when someone starts hitting the defense ships? Dark Flare - Corpus PCG |

The guy runs frigate contests in low-sec all the time. Generally they are great fun and even when the odd pirate scans us down and jumps in. Although I think this is the first time someone has jumped in a nanoBS killing as much as possible, just in order to fraps it jump on the forums and scream "Hey! I R Eve's most awsomist pirate. Come help me stroke my epeen lol." I see through the OP's disguse

You forgot the most important details: how much profit you made? Would reckon both RL and in-game piracy is mostly defined through their desire to get profit/loot through violent means.
At least I hope the main goal and motivation was your own benefit, instead of the magnitude of how much grief you can cause to others.

Originally by: Haitchi Allamut What exactly is the difference between wrecking an event and killing a miningop? If you REALLY think about it, not much.
tbh that's just silly.
For a start frig events take a fair bit of planning and don't happen very often. u can go mining at any time at all.
also ppl don't mine because they actually enjoy it (or at least i hope they don't) they do it to make money. the tourny is actually fun to take part it.
i don't blame you for doing this and don't think it was wrong of you as u can do what u want tbh. But i have some issues about taking enjoyment from it. i would think ppl would show a little but of respect for organised events.
meh. but if u enjoyed it then i guess it's ok.

QFT.
The majority of this thread is bashing the OP because people are sayings it's wrong and not pirate-like to smash up some T1 frigs in a stupid contest. If it was in my neck of the woods, I don't care what ships they were in, I'd try to kill them all.
Everyone that's mad about the OP doing this, why not war dec them, or go to their space and kill them? Pirates are notorious for doing these kinds of things, and this action states clearly that those that define themselves as pirates, and as such THEY ENJOY KILLING PEOPLE. If that offends you, go take it out on them, not on the forums.
Congrats to the OP, loved the video! Die frigs die! For all the people crying in this thread, eve-mail Heywood Jablomie, he'll send some cheese for your whine!

The purpose of the frig fight was to apportion some money to a lucky winner in a more interesting manner than pulling a name out of a hat. Someone gets to earn their prize instead of just sitting tight and hoping they're lucky.
As for taking huge security to guard against this sort of thing, I'd like to negotiate the cessation of hostilities against Port Reality. I cannot simply call up a bunch of battleships to guard a frigate fight. It's difficult enough to get all the contestants together, on time, scanned for banned equipment, while running a show. Infiltrating that really isn't an accomplishment. If I somehow managed to put a tonne of battleships on guard, after a week of having sufficient protection, pirates would simply get a bigger fleet. The more big juicy ships you put into protecting it, the more pirates will want to take it out.
It really doesn't matter, guys. Frigate fights aren't viable, so lotteries it is.

It seems to me Verone, that your heart has grown soft over the years.
Do you recall the ingame funeral that took place in WoW over a player that died IRL? A PvP gang appeared and killed the participants of the ceremony. There was public outrage and forum wars for months after this incident.
I imagine you would be one of the ones protesting against such an incident. Personally, I applauded it.
