Title: Why do people still trust us? Did they simply forget?
Post by: hellgremlin on 01 Nov 2010, 22:14: So, Ashley Sky, frankly one of my best griefers, decides to arrange a race. 70+ frigates report, many Dramiels among them (naturally, being the fastest.)

Our finish line: a toxic gas cloud.

Poor yutzes didn't even get a chance to warp out.

Post by: hellgremlin on 01 Nov 2010, 23:22: Oh yes. We plan to make this a regular event. Taking different guises, though, the race thing is used up.

I think we'll try to infil some empire miners next... gangwarp their mining barges into the cloud. :twisted:

Post by: Esna Pitoojee on 02 Nov 2010, 11:51: Oh... my... God...

That's... just made of win.

EDIT: Question if you can tell me - did one of you get the mission and go "huh, if I were in a frigate this would instapop me.." or did you have your guys pop missions until someone got the Recon chain?

Post by: Alain Colcer on 02 Nov 2010, 13:20: Props for the imaginative use of mission-generated content.

And answering the question "why people still trust you", you will need to find a psichology expert and ask him. You will be amused by the answer.

Post by: Borza on 02 Nov 2010, 13:21: Recon 3/3 traps have been used before for griefing, so that part of the idea isn't new. I assume they spawned missions till they got it.

Post by: Raphael Saint on 03 Nov 2010, 04:34: I'm not a fan of griefing, but one must give credit where it is due.

I see mostly rookie ship wrecks in that pic from the EVE-O link, however.

Reminds me though of when I was running one of these (L4) and had a friend come help me out in a BC. Poor soul didn't last too long but they did get a new ship. (Though, I had lent them the one they lost, lol.)

Edit: Removed question answered by reading the entire EVE-O thread. :oops:

Post by: Marcus Gord on 03 Nov 2010, 09:47: Damn, I was in the area at the time too. Good thing I'm not trusting enough to join fleet with people I don't know...

Post by: Ember Vykos on 04 Nov 2010, 12:02: Im not the biggest fan of greifing, but that is hilarious. I do feel sorry for all the lost Dramiels that would have obviously been put to better use in someone elses hands.

Post by: Casiella on 04 Nov 2010, 12:09: I don't... more money for the Angel Cartel. And the mission runners who get their stuff.

Post by: Bacchanalian on 16 Nov 2010, 18:41: The trick is to make the reward appear good enough for them to take the risk. See also; Viper recently. But yeah. It's quite amusing how easy it is to turn greed on someone and fuck them over because of it. Read this and got a good laugh.
