Be Excellent To Each Other

SHIT. SHIT. SHIT.

just shut it down accidentally. Wonder how autosavey it is?

Fuck this stuff is impenetrable.

It gets a lot, lot worse before it gets any better. Also: I don't think any beexers have currently active accounts I'm afraid.

I might resub next month....

Erm, don't really worry too much about the training missions, sod them. in fact, sod missions entirely. Go and pick a fight with someone and if you happen across Fade Routha, say MaliA says "hi".

They totally redid the training missions and they are now a lot more constructive and useful than they ever were. You can get nice ships and items as well as learning key aspects of the game.

Ok, will focus on my little redhead then

Greetings, star pilots.

I am known as bullet, just a small, relatively unknown member of a covert organization, created by and dedicated to the taking down of what we saw as the single largest evil in eve - CVA.

The plan was hatched well over 2 years ago. Our group of RL friends was backstabbed by a high ranking CVA official, whose name I decline to mention but many of you may already be guessing (if you know, you know. Our group, by nature a very wealthy group of industrialists, was going to help fund a mass CVA invasion of nearby areas. Of course, they would do it in the name of the Amarr Empire, and we were in it to gain a large amount of wealth. However, as talks continued, it was apparent that we were the fools in this barter. CVA had no plans of invading any region, and we were being strung along, by a few high ranking individuals. The rest of the Providence coalition knew nothing about it, I suspect even the CVA officials mostly were in the shadow. Our funds dissappeared into thin air, and our contacts simply would not so much as speak to us.

We thought for a moment to make this public, but what could we do? Nobody would believe a small, relatively unknown group of empire industrialists, over a trusted, powerful, well-known and seemingly well-liked coalition. If I said to you before this, that CVA would disband, would anyone have believed me? I think not. That is when we made our pledge. We would take down CVA. We lacked firepower, so we pledged that we would do it covertly, utilizing an advantage we had - we were all owners of multiple accounts, multiple alts, and our group was bound by what most pilots in eve do not have - RL friendship that goes back for years.

You will never be able to get back at us, as we have no corporate or alliance affiliation. You do not know who we are, or where we are. Any problems I caused with this character, with an aptly ridiculous name, to fit in with the "crowd", I apologize, I decided to use this "face" as it is nearly impossible to connect with anyone. You would be surprised how valuable we found connections to seemingly small, un-notable groups are.

So for 2 years, we worked various channels, various alliances, to come to today. Today, you see our product. Enjoy.

OFFICIAL CVA STATEMENT

I can confirm that CVA was folded and yes we are almost 100% sure it is an account hack for a variety of reasons:

1) We have contacted the relevant player out of game (we have 'real life' contact with him) and he is denying that he did this.

2) The account owner is late US TZ - the disbandment and robbery occurred in early Euro-TZ

3) When the 'hacker' logged in he was only in the basic channels and none of the usual channels that this member is in, indicating that he logged in from a different EVE client.

Of course he could be lieing to us but the member in question is, as far as we were aware, a loyal member of the executor corp and the CVA for over three years. There was no indication what-so-ever that he was in any way disillusioned with our mission and is indeed one of our more active and effective PvPers.

We do not believe that he would have done this. However, as with Haargoth - you can never be definitively sure - so yes - at this stage it is possible that it is simply a betrayal.

Nevertheless we are of the firm belief that this has to be a hack and we have asked CCP to investigate. No doubt all will be revealed in due course.

Obviously it sucks to be us right now and there is no doubt that this is going to cause disruption. However CVA is nothing if not resilient and we will prevail despite the obstacles that will probably be thrown in our way...

So even though it's a game largely built on a reputation of fucking each other over in the most subtle and grand schemes possible, it's only okay to do it in-game. Okay.

Yes, absolutely. How is it fair otherwise?

Do you think there would have been/is a legal claim there if they can find the culprit, Mali? I know that people have been told that what happens in the game is not a case for legal proceedings, but this wasn't in the game.

I was more thinking that the precedent (as I understand it) is "It's a game. If you're playing the game and someone fucks you over within that game, that's part of the game. Deal.". But if someone fucks you over in a way that's not part of the game, isn't it time for a new hearing?

I got "military".

Unsurprisingly.

Ha, excellent.
Sad to see that the radio has stopped, though.

Has it?

MR SAD FACE!

Is anyone at all still playing this?

I've now got Frontier 2 up and running and my new retro gaming box has no hope of running EVE*.
