Ironic, coming from me, I know.
But it's Christmas. CHRISTMAS.
Tired of reading and hearing about people claiming Christmas is nothing more than a commercial holiday.
*yawn* You people bore me with your complaining, okay?
If you don't want to buy a present for someone, then don't. If you don't want to spend your money on decorations, then don't. No one is forcing you to participate in gift giving, or receiving either.
However, there's another way to look at it. Even if it is commercial, look at the gazillion's of people who get a paycheck because of it. Everyone who makes the gifts, transports the gifts, and sells the gifts. It's good for the economy. Shopping is good!
But that doesn't mean you have to go out and get into debt. If you don't have a lot of money, be creative and make something. You can make Christmas memorable without money. One of my favorite Christmas memories from when I was a kid is riding around looking at Christmas lights with my family.
Anyhow, there's no reason to be emo over the rest of society who actually enjoys this time of year. Save your bloody tears, okay?
Christmas is what you make of it.

Popular. You're Gonna Be Pop-U-Larrrrr
Suddenly, everywhere, "Shalee did this" and "Shalee did that". Poems! Fanmail! Strange random convos.
lol.
I feel like Galinda in the musical, Wicked. (hence the title of this post, it's lyrics from one of the songs)
Just to say, I did not rage quit the night I was podded on the Huola station. I don't fly with slaves anymore so getting podded isn't that big of a deal. It's equal to losing a ship, my implants are not expensive. Nor did I ragequit after the Customs Office battle.
I dutifully joined that fleet because some of my corpies were there, despite vowing not to fly another BS around Huola etc, because of the hotdropping.
I didn't ragequit at all, I switched to an alt because I was moving stuff around, I was still on vent chatting with my guys.
And, ILAW was already in the process of moving out of Huola.
Our corp has plans to do some stuff out of area for a few weeks, we've been planning this for the last couple of weeks in fact, it has nothing to do with the Mims 'taking' Huola. No one really cares all that much for occupancy at the moment since it doesn't mean anything.
It's amusing that some people think we are leaving the area because of that. Truthfully Huola can be taken back in the matter of hours with the new plexing mechanics. When we come back to Huola I'm sure we will retake the system (if we are bored).
Anyhow, enough of that nonsense.

About last night...
I'm currently sore at the Minmatar Militia.
I totally get the numbers game. We have more, or yall have more. And you cannot really tell people 'well no you can't fleet with us because they only have so many.'
I get that.
But when we commit to fighting at a disadvantage already with numbers, when we go ahead and take that fight, it's poor sportsmanship to then be hotdropped.
I don't get the overkill. What's the point?
As some of the Euro FCs will say, it's pure faggotry.
So yeah, I wont be engaging in anymore BCs fights, I'm not even going to replace my abaddon I think, what's the point?
And fuck, I used to love battleship fights the most, it was my absolute favorite. But not anymore. It's ruined cause SOME people have to show their epeens. Poor guys.
I get it. You have a big ship. Compensating.
So yeah, today I'm still not over it and hate all the Minmatar, except for Kuan Yida. He has immunity.

Why We Left KOTMC
To understand why KOTMC ended, you need to know how it began.
In 2010, I decided to leave my first corp on EVE, PIE, largely because of two reasons. I wanted the freedom to roleplay with who I wanted and where I wanted, and secondly, because I needed the freedom to write what I wanted without being censored.
For those who aren't familiar with PIE, it is an Amarrian 'RP' FW corp. Their defination of roleplay vastly disagreed with my own. PIE was a corp that considered saying 'sir' in corp chat rp. I craved the more indepth, character driven rp. I wanted stories with conflict, they for the most part, did not.
PIE forbade interaction with anyone unsavory. That meant no rp with pirates or reds, or going to any place with them present. The most interesting places at the time were pirate bars which were on the no-go list.
And right before I left, I was told there was a discussion about my rp blog, that it was about to be censored.
PIE was a great corporation, and still is- it just wasn't a good match for me. I needed more freedom.
I decided to leave and one of my 'wingmen', Aldrith, decided to go as well. He used the opportunity to start his own corporation and at the time I had only two requests of him. Let me write what I want and let me rp how I want.
He agreed, and KOTMC was born.
We poured our hearts into building the new corp and it became rather successful, I think. We picked up a great many people who would shape and re-define what KOTMC was, sometimes for the better, sometimes not.
Anyhow, fastforward.
The problems began when a couple of players decided they didn't like how I was roleplaying my character, and instead of coming to me directly about it, they went to other members of the corp behind my back to try and get me demoted from my position (btw my position was nebulous, something along the lines of a director/co-ceo).
The other members told me and Aldrith and that probably was the begining of the ending- though we didn't know it at the time.
I forgave the two who lobbied against me (one had left corp, the other had been demoted) and things seemed to straighten out for a while.
Eventually we invited the other one back to corp.
Several months pass without much ado until one random night, I take my character into our corp rp channel to rp.
Those two were there. Their characters seemed awfully strange and I got a bad vibe about the whole scene.
At first I thought I was just being paranoid, so I brought it up in our Director's channel asking what they thought.
Aldrith said I should talk to them, that something was off. I told him I'd rather we talk to them instead of doing it alone, but he insisted.
Upon Aldrith's request, I opened up a convo with the two. One of them accepted, the other denied it. I thought it was a mistake and asked in corp chat for them to join convo. They told me no, that they didn't have to.
In any other corp if a member blatantly told a Director no, they would be kicked on spot. I pointed that out in corp chat and apparently saying that hurt some people's feelings, they thought I was wrong to 'play the director's card'.
Instead of working things out, she logged off.
Okay fine.
Still a bit confused by everything, I find out that those two members were in a private channel with some other roleplayers and corp members and frequently would bring up my rp.
I didn't have a problem with someone not liking how I roleplayed my character, but I did expect a certain amount of respect, especially after I had forgiven them the first time for everything.
After reading logs of that channel, I decided I could no longer stay in a corporation with them. I couldn't believe some of the things I read (slut/whore/cunt), and was just...at the end of what I could tolerate.
I can overlook a lot of things, but at the same time, is it so wrong to expect common decency?
I had had enough.
After dropping roles, I went to bed, and the next day read the corp forums. A lot of people were upset, naturally. At that point I made a post saying that I'd stay on a few conditions: that Eran and I be publically recognized as Co-Ceo's since we were already doing the majority of the corp work, that those two involved be booted out of the corp, and that they be kicked out of the corp rp channel along with another non-corp member who was badmouthing me.
Aldrith denied my request.
I left.
Others followed, and we created Imperial Outlaws.
The new corp will focus more on pvp and less on roleplay.
Aldrith decided to take a break from EvE and he shut down the corp & rp channel.
I don't have any ill will against those who were involved, after all, it's just a game.
But I'm happy with the new corp, I'm happy to be in a place where I can trust my corp mates.

Illusions
I think I watch too many movies and read too many books. I'm constantly lost in some kind of story somehow, even if it's just in my own mind.
I think that I do that with EvE too. I turn the people into characters in my mind, even if they aren't roleplayers.
My corp is the Knighthood, and so in my mind, I've automatically turned the players into gallant knights of old. Noble and self-sacrificing warriors.
And the villans are just merely misunderstood men who are fighting for their own cause.
I think that is my biggest problem with EvE. I expect the boys to act like real men, to live up to this fantasy I have in my head. I cast them into the role of some warrior as if they were the hero in some kind of romance novel or some historical movie.
I guess that's why I'm always disappointed when I see smack talking or vulgarity. It breaks the illusion I have of them, its a reminder that they really aren't men. Just boys with vulgar mouths.

Those trolls
Sitting in Huola and in comes a noob toon that is obvious alt of one of our corp war targets.
Obviously the guy wouldn't come in his toon I'm at war with (afraid?)
Anyhow, so I'm the only KOTMC pilot in local and since there's no one else to troll, he starts.
I've been on EvE long enough that this pathetic attempts for attention does absolutely nothing but make me roll my eyes.
But, it got me to thinking.
What would prompt someone to be so nasty and absurd to a girl they don't even know?
I think the most obvious answer is that some guys probably have some kind of rage against women because they don't have one, have been rejected by too many, or are just homo's who wish they were women.
Whatever the case may be, that rage is then projected into a game, onto females they don't even know.
Sad really. It's like a pathetic way to rage against girls, saying all the things they wish they could in real life.
You know what I mean?
I feel more sorry for them than anything.

Happy 4th
Etc, etc.
The other day I saw in the store, Old Spice Body Wash, Gel Douche. This stuff is for guys. I don't understand. No really, I don't.
The picture isn't all that great, crappy camera phone and all. But really, look. Gel douche.
I giggled.

Hmmm.
Hi,
My apologies for the long wait; at the moment our queues are extremely busy and we try to get at each petition as fast as possible.
According to our logs your pod was warp scrambled before the first warp command was given. This is why you were not able to get away. Nothing in the game has changed how this works, however, while spamming a button may help you get the timing right, it may also cause client side lag.
With kind regards,
GM Homonoia

Another rant.
But before I do. I dreamed that Kreiga from PIE was an emo rock star who wore bad make up and was on this Aussie talk show. And I was all like, omg I know that guy. And he was whining about no one takes him serious because he really wants to be a psychologist.
Weird, right?
Anyhow, on to the rant.
Being podded.
From my understanding, the way to not get podded is to select something far away, align, and spam the fuck out of warp, continuously. You don't wait til you're in structure, you do it long before then.
It has worked every single time since I've learned how to do it.
On Feb 19th, it did not work and I got podded. It was laggy to hell. I petitioned, got my implants back. Not a big deal.
Before that, I did a podding for RP purposes, so I don't even count that since it was on purpose.
So I've not really been podded due to my own fault since September of last year.
I really don't get podded all that often in comparison to how much I PVP.
So all of a sudden I get podded twice in eight days. I petitioned the first one and they said there was no lag. This being on the day that I was stuck on the Sarum Prime Star gate for 20 minutes before the game shut down completely for 20 minutes. The day was laggy as fuck. I wrote back and asked them if they even played the game. Smart ass I know, but still.
Then last night, Eran and I were fucking around warp scrambling each other in a plex that we had closed with some other people. The Minmatar warped in, we were on the warp in and yeah, I knew I was going to die. It was a shitty omen, I didn't really care. So I'm aligning and spamming to warp out like usual, but this time it doesn't work. It's like there's not even time between the explosion and waking up in a clone vat.
So the irritating thing is, if I'm doing what I'm supposed to be doing, and it doesn't work and there's a considerable loss (implants), then I'm not really all that inspired to play a broken fucked up game.
Yeah, I'm annoyed.
It's one thing when the players are trying to fuck you over, but it's a whole other thing when it comes from CCP, people I pay money to.
Weird, right?
Anyhow, on to the rant.
Being podded.
From my understanding, the way to not get podded is to select something far away, align, and spam the fuck out of warp, continuously. You don't wait til you're in structure, you do it long before then.
It has worked every single time since I've learned how to do it.
On Feb 19th, it did not work and I got podded. It was laggy to hell. I petitioned, got my implants back. Not a big deal.
Before that, I did a podding for RP purposes, so I don't even count that since it was on purpose.
So I've not really been podded due to my own fault since September of last year.
I really don't get podded all that often in comparison to how much I PVP.
So all of a sudden I get podded twice in eight days. I petitioned the first one and they said there was no lag. This being on the day that I was stuck on the Sarum Prime Star gate for 20 minutes before the game shut down completely for 20 minutes. The day was laggy as fuck. I wrote back and asked them if they even played the game. Smart ass I know, but still.
Then last night, Eran and I were fucking around warp scrambling each other in a plex that we had closed with some other people. The Minmatar warped in, we were on the warp in and yeah, I knew I was going to die. It was a shitty omen, I didn't really care. So I'm aligning and spamming to warp out like usual, but this time it doesn't work. It's like there's not even time between the explosion and waking up in a clone vat.

Monocle.
Really?
If any person buys that, I just can't talk to them anymore. I can only tolerate so much stupid.

Sekrit Admirer, jealousssssssss
Good day, Miss Lianne,
I know you do not know who I am, but I am stationed as an observer in Huola and am very familiar with you. I'm a distant admirerer of your work in The Bleak Lands and the surrounding warzone and saw early this morning you got podded. I happen to know that you were carrying low grade slaves in your head at the time which aren't something easily seperated from.
Please accept this as a token of my appreciation for all your hard work. [Multiple Items] (Item Exchange)
Fly safe, Deadly One.
******
A mystery! Someone bought me a new low grade slave set. But I don't know who it is! (thank you very much, if you're reading this)

RAEGGGG
EVE was such a wretched place last night. Our fleet took a trip down to Gallente space and during our engagement with the frenchies we started having lag issues.
One gazillion jumps back to Amarr took even longer than usual because of lag. Once I got to Amarr, I sat on the Sarum Prime gate for fifteen minutes or more (traffic jam?), then EVE shut down for half an hour at least.
Did a small 3man (well 2 men & lady? lol) roam with Jodie as our FC, and I was soooooooo excited to be flying under Jodie (legendary!).
We go all over the warzone, one million places. Get back to Huola and that is where we get our fight. (blobbed) And my stupid assed game lagged. As soon as I hit structure I was aligned out and spamming the warp button, I should have easily made it out of that, but no. No no no, I end up in Amarr, new clone.
FOUR people got on my pod mail. How fucked up is that?
So of course I petitioned, and if I don't get my implants back imma emo rage quit, or something. Go dance on a mailbox in WOW.
And I was all sadface to be PODDED in my first fleet with Jodie. Grr.
To any Minmatar who is reading this. I want my corpse back :P

Dreams
I had a dream about Kuan Yida last night, that he came to tell me that he was quitting EVE. And then we went to have dinner on the top of this mountain with this beautiful view, but since it was slanted I kept sliding off the seat lol.
I dream about EVE all the time (and a thousand other things too, I never stop dreaming apparently).
The other night on Vent the militia guys were talking about dreams. It was kinda funny.
I love random convos on vent waiting for fleets.
One of the craziest dreams I had was marrying Silver Knight and Cia Roth (I don't really know these people, I just read their blogs/stories). We had a 3-way marriage lol, it was a long drawn out dream too. The wedding AND the honeymoon.

No idea what to title this rambling as.
In a perfect EVE, I would love to see something done about FW. It has the potential to be something so spectacular but it's just left to die a slow death while we get SUPER PRETTY FACES to play with.
Okay, granted, I do enjoy emoing Shalee up from time to time, playing with hair colors, yada yada. But that's because I can, and in a perfect world I wouldn't give two fucks about the picture. I'd rather have improvements to gameplay.
I don't want to complain, because I still enjoy the game very much. I just wonder why they bother with things and then leave them to rot.
Secondly. I wish there were some kind of mechanic that enabled people to have smaller fights without the threat of being blobbed to hell. FW is supposed to help with that some, with the plexes allowing only certain sized ships.
But, I think they can do better. They could make some kind of site that would allow only 2 ships or 4 ships of a certain size. Once the requirements were met, the accel gate would shut down. That way players could have guaranteed 1 v 1 or small fights.
I know that part of EVE is the blob, it is unavoidable. And if you have X amount of pilots online who want in your fleet, then thats what you fly with, and hope that the other side can fleet up to match you.
I attempted to roam the other night with just 2 others, we were spread out among a few systems poking around, looking for a fight. I found a blob instead. Oh well, that was a great ten minutes. Back to ship spinning and rp.

Stupid boys part two
Why are men so penis obsessed?
Really.
Sometimes I feel like I can't go one fleet without hearing about some one's dick. I think if there was a game mechanic that would let 'em jump through a gate cock-n-balls first they would. "I got balls, see?"
LOOK AT ME I AM MAN AND HAVE PENIS. LOOK AT THIS! WILL YOU JUST HAVE A LOOK AT THIS! OOOWEEE, LOOKIE HERE I HAVE PENIS.
It's in local. It's on comms. It's in chat.
Everywhere, can't escape it.
And I know it's my own fault for playing a game with a ratio of 90% males. I get that. I know that guys just wanna be guys and be stupid and smack talk and obsess about their sausage and link pictures of girls with boobs hanging out all over the place.
But goddamn I do get tired of it sometimes.
Last night, for instance. Corp chat was a steady flow of links, and usually I click them because it's funny stuff, fukung or whatever. But last night it was tits after tits after tits. Bouncing ones and animated ones etc.
So I just started to link pics of really hot guys with their underwear tugged down suggestively, you know, cause why wouldn't they want to see THAT?!
...it has a penis in the picture after all.
:)

Stupid boys
I feel like ranting. I'm just sick of boys who pretend to be girls on EVE. You're fucking up the game for those of us who really are female.
So heres the thing.
If someone on EVE claims to be a female IRL but does not get on a mic to prove it, and no I don't mean on EVE voice where it can be altered (like that one whacko from militia), then guess what?
It's not a real girl.
I don't care who says it is, if they don't prove it, then its some dude pretending to be a girl.
But why?
Well, many reasons. Some boys are stupid. Really, really stupid.
They want you to think they are a girl because:
1. You will give them stuff.
2. They are just trolling everyone.
3. They are an rper who is rping for cybersex and there wanking off.
Stop believing 'I dont have a mic' or 'Im shy' or 'I have a social disorder that doesnt allow me to talk on the mic but I can rp sex scenes and take it up the ass'.
Just stop it already.
And if you're one of these nasty little boys who are doing this? Stop. If you really want to be a girl, make a doctors appointment and wack your willy off.
It just pisses me off that people do this. Oh, and this is a good one too. I CANT TALK ON A MIC BUT HERES A NAKED PIC OF ME.
....really.
And boys fall for it every. fucking. day.
'But so-and-so knows them, so it must be a girl.'
So-and-so is lying too. Perhaps, just perhaps, So-and-so IS the (pretend) girl. Ponder that, please.

Why?
Why am I addicted to 'Dancing With the Stars'?
For some reason I've started watching it. I usually dislike reality shows. Or so I thought. After that, I watched 'The Voice'. Another reality/gameshow kind of thing. I think I'll be hooked on it too.
In EVE news. So I googled Shalee Lianne the other day at work, bored, and because I'm a total noob and that's how I find my blog (at work anyhow). There are the usual pages of the name on various kill boards.
....and then.
There's a bit of RP I did with someone, on a sex blog that has nothing to do with EVE. (don't click that link if you are at work or have kids around)
I giggled.
I lost a slicer last night but it was worth it. We had a few engagements with the Mims in frigs & destroyers. Usually I whine about frigs but I kind of wish we would get back to smaller sized fleets like that. They are much more affordable and it's more involving. What I mean by that. Say we start out with the usual BC & down fleet. We have to wait at least 20 mins for everyone to get ready. Then there is the time we spend waiting for the fight, usually at some safe or hanging around on a gate by which point I'm already distracted with something else and only half paying attention. Then we might get a fight or, OR, we get intel that they are in battleships so now we got to ship up. So now it's battleships with possible hot drops. Le sigh.
But! In frigs it's much more fast paced. We cover lots more territory simply because we are lighter and faster. And you have to be a better pilot in a frig. You have to free fly and get the mother fucking point already and hold it and not die.
It's much more exhilarating, I think.
Need moar frig fleets plz.

Last night
I don't think I've ever been so nervous as I was last night,waiting for that storm system to pass.
I started getting calls around 6pm or so, everyone saying that the storms were nearing, and that they would hit after midnight.
Our whole area was under tornado watch until 2am, which then got extended until 8am. The storm cell that rolled through Alabama killing all of those people was frightfully close to us. The weatherman was coming onto the TV about every fifteen minutes with updates.
In the end, all we got was a thunderstorm, which wasn't so bad considering what happened to so many other people.

ZZZZZZZ
Sleepy.
It's never just a quick gank.
I should have known better to join a fleet so late, oi. But the call of the pew-pew, so very hard to resist.
My character got put on a list on the IGS (rp forum on the EVE boards) on some thread about capsuleer recognition. I find it a bit odd, I hardly ever post or read the IGS unless someone points me to it. I'm really not 'mainstream', I don't really have the desire to put myself out there. The IGS gives me a headach after so long. Someone posts, then it's followed by five pages of everyone else responding how wrong wrong wrong they are. I am content in my own little pocket of EVE, in Amarr/Minmatar FW.
I should, though, try to make more of an effort to at least read the IGS more often. When the KOTMC ball was announced, I had glanced at the forum then and noticed a post by Tigerfish. I had remembering meeting him once, a year prior. On an impulse, in character, Shalee mailed him to check up on him, etc.
So a new story arc spawned because of that, it should be interesting.

Machariel slain in Shalee's honor!
...no not really. But I'm pretending OKAY.
Baha's Machariel died today. Pred mailed me the KM. We've been after that thing for a while now.
Hope everyone is having a lovely, lovely day.

Listen, do you want to know a secret...
...thats lyrics to a song btw. I just heard it earlier, a Beatles song. It's sort of stuck in my head.
Anyhow. Things to talk about! I has them.
I didn't submit to the Silver contest. I just could not get the story right, no matter how I tried. I will enter next time though, if there is a next time, dammit.
I'm making a new roleplay channel called Huola Haze. The setting is the 24th station in Huola. It just makes sense I think, because Shalee spends a lot of time there, as do a lot of other people. Can't wait to rp there! I am determined to turn more FW people into rpers *nods*. It will happen.
I've been seeing Lukka on the billboards! It's so crazy, just randomly be flying somewhere and there he is! The first time was hilarious, I was in a small militia fleet and was like 'OMG THERES LUKKA' over comms and everyone thought I meant in space and they were like 'wtf where!'. haha.

la la la
I started the story. I think I'm halfway finished with it, around 1600 words, though it needs a lot more.
I'm not sure if I'm happy with it, I don't know. Tonight I'll re-read it and decide. I think I have way too much going on with it. I dunno.

ADD?!
I really do think I have ADD sometimes.
I start off with an idea of what I'm going to do and end up doing a thousand different other things instead.
Tonight I just want to write the story for Silver's contest already. But an hour and a half later, I haven't written the first word. It's been a constant stream of, -IM! chat chat chat. Blogs! READ TEH BLOGS NOW! Ouu! America's Top Model is on! Phone is chirping away, ignore? No could be important! text text text. Did I charge my Nook? Read that last chapter. Paint the nails! No no, wait til later.
By the way. Fleeting and painting nails go together like peanut butter and jelly. I dunno why, I guess sometimes I just got to do something while waiting for the fleet to rally. Or wait for the enemy to engage, etc.
Anyway. Japan.
The Red Cross allows you to text REDCROSS 90999 to donate 10 dollars for Japan. And a friend is offering this:
Wes says:
Well, you know I own an Amway-affiliated business...
This week, Amway announced that they would be collecting donations for the Red Cross relief fund for Japan and matching contributions (up to $250,000). I decided to kick it up a notch and match any donations made through my personal website (up to $500).
So, I'm encouraging folks to drop by http://shop.wesjoyner.com and contribute before the deadline (March 21) to effectively quadruple their contributions (I match your donation. Amway matches us both).
melly says:
oh wow thats awesome
Wes says:
If you're willing to help out, just go to the site and enter "Red Cross" in the search box. You'll have the option of making a donation in $10 or $25 increments (change the quantity to donate more).
...and feel free to spread the word to anyone you know. It's a limited-time program.

:)
The other day someone was telling me (Toc? I think) that they heard my blog mentioned on a podcast. At first I assumed it was James plugging me somewhere, but no! It was randomly on a podcast by people I do not even know. Weird huh. I'm totally EvE famous. Totally. /giggle
http://evecommune.com/
So now I'm compelled to like, listen to all of their podcasts. I'm thinking of making a little section on my RP blog with links to the various EVE podcasts too, just to remind myself to listen to them.
To all of you people who keep asking me if I'm going to update the blog anytime soon....yesssssssss. Yes I am. I have a few things that I need to write. For the RP blog and then theres a story that I'm working on for Silvernight's writing contest. I have the general idea of it, just need to get it completely sorted in my mind before I write it. Then I have a few things for Sov Wars to do as well. Always something...

For the RP blog and then theres a story that I'm working on for Silvernight's writing contest. I have the general idea of it, just need to get it completely sorted in my mind before I write it. Then I have a few things for Sov Wars to do as well. Always something...

New blog & why I love Lukka :)
Huzzah, new blog. Last winter I had started an OOC blog but closed it after a week or two because it became a little creepy when people I did not know started to discuss my IRL, taking snipets from it and pasting them in local.
So yeah, new blog with new rules. Mostly this will be just about EVE, but OOC. For you non-rpers, that means out of character. My original blog will still be in character, story form, or whatever.
A few people have asked why I have Lukka on my bio, and well, love him or hate him, I really don't care, I think he is great.
Okay, granted, he shows no mercy in game. He will shoot & pod anyone given the opportunity, myself included probably (if I gave him the chance :P). But, the thing is, why shouldn't he? His character is a pirate. Even if he doesn't RP per se, (yet, cause I'm so whining to get him to rp. It worked on Pred! Do not underestimate the power of my whine) he still is a pirate in game.
He is in low sec, usually in Amamake for god's sake, pirate haven. Why people go to Amamake and then emo out about getting sniped by a pirate is beyond me. EvE itself is a risky game. Low sec, even more so.
Anyhow, I met Lukka back when he started camping the 24th in Huola months ago. Of course Huola is my home system and I felt obligated to try to stop him. So for days, I'd get people to undock to guard the station from him. Counter camping. He found it amusing, I think.
During that time we started chatting in local. Sometimes I'd private convo him.
What I love about him is that he doesn't take the game serious.
When some people were harassing me in local, I complained to him and he made me realize that I was taking things entirely too serious and that I needed to back off and stop letting things get to me emotionally. He pointed out the obvious, basically. Sometimes I think we all need that, a reminder that it is just a game and that stupid little taunts from pubescent little boys shouldn't bother me at all. Not like they know me.
Anyhow. That is why I love Lukka.
Lukka has his own blog, check it out here.
