My dad used to always say, “love what you do and you never
work a day in your life”. Truer words have never been spoken. So far, I haven’t
made much profit in my safari adventures, but the tears and rage have
been very entertaining.
Cut to last night. After reading the Belligerent
Undesirables guide to making a 10 hour gank catalyst toon, I decided to give it
a go. I made my character, put him in a catalyst and got on the recruitment
channel. There I met a guy recruiting for his corp which specialized in mining.
He told me that there would be lots of mining ops for members to take part in,
but that the ore from these ops would belong to the corp. If we wanted to mine
on our own then that ore was ours. This seemed to be a bit fishy to me, but
hey, I’m not a miner so I didn’t really care. All I knew was that after a 2
minute conversation, my app was accepted and I was in.
So now that I was in corp chat, I asked what everyone was
doing. My ceo/recruiter just happened to be mining away in Kamio in his
Mackinaw a mere 4 jumps away. I thought what the hell, might as well do this
now, and headed over there. It was a simple thing to ask to join him. He
fleeted me, I initiated warp, dropped fleet, fleeted my logi, and landed,
warping my logi in as soon as I got there.
Turns out my logi was not needed. I pointed him and started
dps and told him that for 100 mil he could keep his ship. I know this is a
paltry sum, but I’m just getting started here right? He refuses to pay, so I
pop and pod him to the tune of a 200 mil Mack and 100 mil in implants.
Now, this is a 2003 player we are talking about here, and he
is telling me after I pop him that he doesn’t have 100 mil. When I expressed
disbelief that a 2003 player wouldn't have a hundred mil, he told me that he
had had to have a liver transplant and that he had been away from the game a
while. I am unsure as to how that equates with having no isk (unless they took isk as payment for his operation). After this he proceeded to threaten me, place a 250k bounty on me, (Oh noes!) and call me various names as well as pointing out
how much I fail at eve.
I will post chat logs when I get home tonight as I don’t
have them at the moment (poor planning on my part, his baffled rage was pretty awesome though). I do however have a
glorious eve mail that he sent me in which he brags about his “wealth”
(several hundred million!) and how I need to watch my back for his mysterious revenge at some undetermined date. Of course he blocked me right after he sent
it. He is obviously not upset at all. Enjoy.

To: Kane Intakken,
I have a confession to
make. I have 100 million ISK, I have for more than 100 million ISK.
You were right; how could someone playing as long as I have NOT have 100
million ISK? Truth is I have several 100 million isk and that's not all.
I have been a miner since day 1, mining all day everyday and stocking it
all away. Truth be said, I have nearly 2 billion ISK in various ores and
minerals.
Now I bet you are
wondering WHY I didn't pay up? It's simple, I will never back down to
extortion, why do you think I sat there so calmly and said "really
Kane"?
You're such a puttz,
enjoy what you got and deal with the fact that I fine with the act of
childishness you played. LOL
I also see someone
placed a tiny bounty on you and your friend and though it warms my heart to see
that I have something different in store for you. ;) Just keep an
eye open...NO NOT ME...silly little girl...just keep an eye open for it.
Have a nice day.
LOL
