Just robbed Bombers Bar of every ISK they had (just a measly 22 billion) because I couldn't stand the internal drama anymore that's been going on for months. Ask me anything!

You don't give us much of a story, Linus. Were you actually involved in any of the drama you mention? Is there a narrative?
'Ask me anything' is rarely as good as 'It happened like this....'
If your tale goes something like 'Get Roles - Get Rich - Get Out' - we've probably heard about (or done) it ourselves. If there's more to it than that, and you can outdo our own TheInternet TweepsOnline TheInternet - why then, I'm all ears!

Oh, there's a lot to it.. This story goes a few years back, even, to Winter 2013!
I'll write it down in a few hours when I have more time. Promise!
PS: No, it's not one of these usual corp theft stories.. I had access to that money (and more) for over a year now, but only recent events (as in a few hours ago) made me all take it and go.

Hmm I don't know about this. Claims theft but clearly had been given access to this money and simply used/withdrew it. I'd say if anything this was a case of reappropriation

Apart from the use of a word which you somehow failed to asterisk-out, I rather enjoyed this diverting piece of drama. I'm not sure that 'enjoyed' is the right word, but you get my drift.
It does occur to me that, in relieving BB of the isk, you will also have affected those people you mention as being not part of the company of folks whom you disparage. I suppose one has to have a sort of 'disconnect' where such issues are concerned.
It was also a failure on the part of the leadership not to spot this coming several leagues off - if not from you then certainly from some other disaffected party.
Internal politics and ego-trumpeting seem to dilute or destroy the effectiveness of many corps and alliances in EVE. My own theory is that the people who adopt roles in such organisations are not always qualified to do so. Even in RL organisations such tensions exist, but they're usually held at bay by having people who are very good at what they do and at managing people. The opportunities to walk away with cash in a RL organisation - even for a Director - are necessarily limited.
It's difficult to know who to trust in this game. They say 'trust no-one', but at some point you do have to give people access to stuff which has some value. You can only do this on the basis of past behaviour; the rest is up to fate.
I'd forgotten about the Pirate thread; haven't looked at it for months (?years). It certainly sounds that sort of story, though I maintain it's an embellished Roles-Rob-Run tale. Entertaining (that's the word!) stuff Linus; good luck with your small fortune!

Truth be told, they all knew what I did in my early years in EVE (played 2003 to 2009 with a character that I'm never going to associate myself with, for obvious reasons). I didn't keep it secret that I used to scam and steal on a daily basis.
But honestly, up until the shitshow yesterday I never even thought about taking that money and running off. I did consider leaving BB a few times, but it never was my intention to do any harm in the process. That opinion, however, changed after recent events and while I never directly hinted at it, it shouldn't have surprised anyone either that in the end I made off with it, because I complained more and more about all the crap that's going on. Yet not one of them saw this coming and the last famous words I read were along the lines of me "showing where my true loyalties are".

Could fill an entire thread about my "relationship" with Nova.. I kept him out of here intentionally because, even though I continued to bang heads with him, he wasn't relevant in my decision to take that ISK.

But you didn't. You didn't stick to to the Bombers Bar leadership. You stuck it to the Bombers Bar community that benefited from the Bomber's Bar SRP program that the ISK was exclusively used for. |

Exclusively? You got the facts mixed up here. I can tell you exactly how much money used to go where and it wasn't nearly as much for SRP as you think it was.

I liked what BB was up until 2013. Past that it was pretty much just loyalty to a few key people and boredom that kept me there.
I'm not creating yet another NPSI channel for various reasons, but mainly the following two:
1. It's way too much effort for 1 or 2 people on their own. A few years ago? Hell yeah. Today? Waste of time.
2. I don't even play EVE anymore. I haven't actively played the game for a good few years and used it mostly as a glorified chat client with spaceships.

Your jib sir. I like the cut of it.
Have a cookie.
Also.......
Long ago I used to hang out in The Bar. It was a fun place where the cool kids hung out in stealth bombers (back when bombs were actually dangerous...) and we all roamed in packs like feral hyena's looking for Goon..um....nullsec mining ops to play with.
So I poked my nose back into the Bar as it is now....and folks, just stay away. Go make your own Bar. Find like minded killers and have fun.
'Cause I sure didn't see any fun in the Bar now, and that actually saddens me.
Everything in EVE is a trap.
And if it isn't, it's your job to make it a trap...:)
