So as of late I’ve been very busy, so I haven’t had any time to play other than EVE other than to add skills to the queues. Finally had a chance the past few nights to put some probes out and scan for a bit. I didn’t get any hits or even yellowboxed on Monday, but yesterday was a bit more interesting. Started out the evening RRing Dohickey as he took down a Raven, then started my scan process. Found a couple targets but no shooters. Jumped into a mission with a Drake and a Kestrel. At first I just salvage making sure that Dohickey is free if I need RR support. I’m already yellowboxed at this point and haven’t even stole anything yet. The moment I loot the Drake fires on me. I slap my point and web on him and orbit at 10k. At this point the Kestrel must feel that he has a chance of scaring me off, so he goes red as well. I keep my web and point on the Drake, but send my drones and rockets after the Kestrel, taking it down to 25% hull when it finally warps out.
At this point Dohickey is in the mission with RR and now has a red Drake to him to. I tell him to bail out and grab his cane of doom and I’ll hold the Drake. Before he can bail out my EVE disconnects. I don’t notice for a few seconds until I’m not able to type in corp chat, so I quickly manually disconnect both my main and Orca alt EVE clients as EVE would just sit there otherwise. As I log back in as quick as I can, I get the sit rep from Dohickey if they are still in the mission. Luckily my Worm warps right back in rather than having to hit the first gate, but the Drake bails as I’m landing. The Kestrel pilot has come back though and I snag him quick and make quick work of his T1 ship.
I then contacted the Drake pilot, the following is the chat log:

[ 2011.03.01 22:44:08 ] Placid09 > well hello again
At the end I was starting to get very bored of waiting and extending aggro while he ‘refit’ his Drake. Dohickey is watching the station that he was docked in so I can warp back to my Orca to online the mods on my Tengu so I can switch when ready, as they are all offline from that pesky EVE disconnect. I warp back in my worm and wait for him, watching d-scan. Finally, I see him, it’s about time. He warps in and aggresses me immediately. I slap a point and web on him again and have Dohickey come back in in his cane to hold him so I can go switch to my Tengu. He comes in, grabs point, and off I go. I get back into the mission, and we start hammering him, but by now he’s had some time to weaken Dohickey’s cane, so he has to warp out. I continue to hold the Drake, but can’t break his tank solo, so I wait for Dohickey to be able to return. A Ferox warps into the mission, targets me, and generally seems agitated that I’m killing his corp mate. I convo the Ferox pilot and ask if he wants me to drop a can so he can get aggro. He says yes so I drop a can for him to be the polite pilot I am.
Now I have aggro from a Drake and a Ferox and am still easily out tanking them. Dohickey comes back in his RR ship again and tops off my shields as they were at about half from unloading from the Orca, and then heads out to get back in his Cane, rep what needs to be repped, and load some more drones into it.
[ 2011.03.01 22:49:54 ] Placid09 > about that 30 mil
[ 2011.03.01 22:50:03 ] vicount walker > lol yh wt u sayin
[ 2011.03.01 22:50:31 ] vicount walker > like the ship
[ 2011.03.01 22:50:53 ] vicount walker > am not paying let me go
[ 2011.03.01 22:50:59 ] Placid09 > lol, not a chance
[ 2011.03.01 22:54:34 ] vicount walker > nothin is gona happen
[ 2011.03.01 22:55:35 ] Placid09 > 30 mil or you’re gone
[ 2011.03.01 22:55:37 ] Placid09 > you will die
[ 2011.03.01 22:55:39 ] Placid09 > you like it or not
All this time I’m tanking both the ships, firing from time to time hoping the Ferox stays long enough for Dohickey to return and land a point on him. Finally Dohickey gets back into the mission, but they’ve been kiting this entire time as I don’t have a web fit, so he slowly starts to catch up to us. The entire time the Ferox is free to warp out, but chooses to stay and fight. Dohickey finally gets in range to land a point on the Ferox and proceeds to melt his ship in short order. We are now both aggressed to the Drake and start in on his shield tank.
[ 2011.03.01 23:00:44 ] Placid09 > your ferox friend is dead, do you want to save your drake or not?
[ 2011.03.01 23:01:49 ] vicount walker > u got ur ferox let me b
[ 2011.03.01 23:01:53 ] Placid09 > nope
[ 2011.03.01 23:01:55 ] Placid09 > 30 mil
[ 2011.03.01 23:02:00 ] Placid09 > no freebes in this game
[ 2011.03.01 23:02:23 ] vicount walker > 25
[ 2011.03.01 23:02:27 ] Placid09 > hmmmm
[ 2011.03.01 23:02:33 ] Placid09 > alright, 25 mil
[ 2011.03.01 23:03:14 ] Placid09 > 2.5 mil is wrong!0
[ 2011.03.01 23:03:17 ] Placid09 > 25 mil fool
He sent me 2.5 million ISK at this point, either in his haste to pay out or trying to trick me.
[ 2011.03.01 23:03:21 ] vicount walker > sz lol
[ 2011.03.01 23:03:39 ] Placid09 > waiting…
[ 2011.03.01 23:03:52 ] vicount walker > there
[ 2011.03.01 23:04:05 ] Placid09 > SUDDENLEY BETRAYAL!
[ 2011.03.01 23:04:22 ] vicount walker > bastard
[ 2011.03.01 23:04:35 ] vicount walker > your a fat nigger with a sad life
[ 2011.03.01 23:04:41 ] vicount walker > you deserve only death
[ 2011.03.01 23:04:45 ] Placid09 > racial slurs? I’d watch it
[ 2011.03.01 23:04:53 ] vicount walker > your a dick
[ 2011.03.01 23:05:08 ] Placid09 > and btw, it’s ‘you’re’, not ‘your’
[ 2011.03.01 23:05:42 ] vicount walker > you arse
[ 2011.03.01 23:05:50 ] vicount walker > you are dis honourable
[ 2011.03.01 23:06:05 ] Placid09 > I’m a ninja…
[ 2011.03.01 23:10:10 ] Placid09 > bringing your whole corp in to watch eh?
[ 2011.03.01 23:11:56 ] vicount walker > wts the point this is long stop being sad
[ 2011.03.01 23:13:52 ] vicount walker > let me go right fucking now
At this point we’ve overloaded to defeat his tank and his ship finally goes pop. At the very end the guy in the Kestrel from the beginning has warped back in in a Condor ship, with no aggro, and started moving towards the fight.
[ 2011.03.01 23:14:33 ] Placid09 > good fight
[ 2011.03.01 23:14:34 ] Placid09 >
[ 2011.03.01 23:14:38 ] Placid09 > thanks for all the kills
After I pop the Drake, the Condor feels it necessary to fire on me. At first I’m a little in shock that this pilot actually fired on my Tengu with a measly T1 frig, then realize that Concord should be on the way to protect me. In the laughter that ensues I completely forget to whore the Concord killmail, but it was a great laugh either way.
[ 2011.03.01 23:15:43 ] Placid09 > concord!
Now being a ninja my true goal is always tears of these bears. My ship only has a limited supply of tears so I need to refuel once in awhile. Well last night I think I hit a jackpot. After killing three of this corps ships and having another one of them lost to Concord, I had other business to attend to in RL.
Just before I log off I get an eve-mail:

Ur such a fukin prick man, after sum 1 givs u a ransom let the fuker go. I cnt believe hw much of a scum bag u r. jesus man, im gona ask u 2 do sumit: dependin on hw u respond will hav massive ramifications on ur future: option 1: u giv me and my corp mate (the drake u destroyed) the money back (25mil) and throw in a reasonable compensation that u c fit for the loss of our ships. or option 2: u cont playin and then 1 day wer gona destroy all of ur ships, pod u untold times until u never play eve again.
I leave this up 2 u, choose wisely.
Obviously this doesn’t scare me, so my reply was short and sweet:

Cool story, brah…
After that I went to entertain my house guest for the night. When I woke up this morning I checked my EVE mail for shits and giggles before I left for work.
