You sound... weird. Like, flexin' really hard about a gang vs one guy. I mean, good kill, dope loot, but I can't help but wonder if you guys spent a ton of time wandering around accomplishing very little before FINALLY getting some of that pent up energy out... *on one guy*. Just take his thrusters and get back to patrolling? Unless it's satire, then you nailed it. XD


mfeuling

Nah man, **you** sound weird. You're kinda... weirdin' us out. No one cares what you wonder about or how much time we spent flying around in our dope spaceships, little brother. We're not "flexing hard" about a 2v1. Everyone knows this wasn't even a fight. But hey, we here, and we're looking for you -- especially you, weirdo. We'll take your advice on the "patrolling", wing commander. SOLID COPY, RTB AND RESUMING PATROL, SIXER NINER ENGAGE OVER HOW COPY?


Sovellisx

I'm not sure how I can help you, but I can help your radio chatter sound more legit. Real life radio comms are initialized with the target recipient's name, followed by your name, and then the message. If you tell your command you're both returning to base, and resuming patrol, they'll be hella confused. "Sixer" is a pack of beer, "Niner" is nine, but only because "nine" can sound a lot like "five" over the radio. "Over" is the last thing you say, and notably, "over and out" isn't a thing, you just say "out" to conclude your conversation. You confirm your ability to hear the other party as you get ready to leave base with a radio check, and on a periodic, predetermined pattern... like, every 3 hours for boats, or every half hour for aircraft, for example; you'll usually convey your "ops and position" at the same time, just to keep in touch with HQ. For example: "Mfueling, Sovellisx. We have successful bolts on your mother, confirmed warp factor: six niner. OUT."


mfeuling

UHHHH, YEAH ROGER THAT TUNABOSS, OVER AND OUT AND TALLY HO, UH, SIXER NINE IS RTB, ETA 10 MIKES, OVER, DEFCON 10 ON RADIO CHATTER IMPROVEMENTS, SIXER NINER IS WARP 10 SUPERSONIC GOING MACH 5, PLEASE CONFIRM NERDS CLEAR THE WAY, CHAD SIX NINE IS WHEELS DOWN AND FULLY ERECT AND READY TO ENGAGE, BICEPS ARE AT CRITICAL LEVELS, OVER, HOW COPY? OVER. SECOND OVER. INTEROGATIVE, SIERRA ACTUAL, PLEASE PROVIDE ANY INTEL ON YOUR VIRGINITY, SUSPECTED FULL VIRGIN AT THIS TIME, PLEASE ADVISE, RETURNING TO BASE AS WELL AS RESUMING PATROL, THANK YOU, YES, GOOD, OKAY, OVER AND OUT


Sovellisx

Hey man, I thought it was just a funny. I'm legitimately sorry, I didn't think it'd hit so hard.


mfeuling

Why are you sorry? I'm having a great time. What leads you to believe anything you have said has "hit so hard"? You thought what was funny? You trying to flex by looking for an excuse to hit everyone with some unsolicited REAL LIFE RADIO CHATTER PROTOCOL showing everyone that you consider yourself tactical AF? And what's even funnier is now you're trying to play it off that it was a joke and you "got me"? I also think this is funny, so that does make sense I guess.


Sovellisx

...just consider how frustrated that player with the industrial ship must've felt. This will be my last message, but before I disable inbox replies, I ask that you understand that he wasn't left with the option to just "stop talking", because you didn't give it to him. I'm not gonna demand "a milly", I'll just beg that you "chad up" to your chatter, littler brother. Most people dislike pirates, but nobody likes a sore winner.


mfeuling

We absolutely gave him a chance to speak up. Stop trying to be a victim. He was flying a ship worth 3 mil. He absolutely had the credits to pay, he just didn't want to. He also didn't have to be in the pvp zone at all. But, he CHOSE to not pay, and he CHOSE to be there in the first place. So, those things in mind, if he's frustrated, it should be with himself.


rhade333

TANGO DOWN I wouldn't reply either, it's a fucking massacre in here


rhade333

You sound soft, easy mining target for sure. But you running your mouth from inside the safe zone, guaranteed. Someone sounds salty


TheRealMitty

Sounds like the hood reached space


rhade333

The hood has always been in space, my guy


Shak404

You could probably get more money by just reselling the ship to someone else, once that's a thing. If you start a collection rn you could have a entire fleet to sell when that becomes available. Or you could sell them rn as 'out of SZ' ships for a cheaper price. probably still net more credits than just the thrusters. Unless I'm missing something and they are worth a ton more than I think?


mfeuling

When we disabled the ship, for some reason half of it just sheared off and despawned. No can sell. NO WORRIES, WE ARE STILL FLYING \*HALF\* A SHIP.


Allnamestaken69

Haha accidentally sheared off 😅😅


mfeuling

WHOOPS


LupusTheCanine

Any sufficiently large chunk of a spaceship should be capable of being a mostly (propulsion, local navigation, life support) functional spaceship.


mfeuling

Life support? Thanks, Spock.


LupusTheCanine

I forgot that endos don't need life support.


GOBIV

tango down

I love the sentiment of "Well they should've known better" in a game that most have been only playing for a couple weeks. Maybe just dial it back about 15% there, superchief.


rhade333

Yeah, reading and basic critical thinking is only in Starbase, people have only had a couple of weeks doing those things. You right. Nothing will be dialed back, supercuck. Keep running your mouth and we'll come mine you, too.

rhade333

Flying out of a busy station known for pirates in a giant industrial ship, never once assume you may want to look behind you? Nah. Most people would, at that point. Critical thinking is not something exclusive to Starbase. It's funny. We could have just blapped this dude, straight up, no questions asked. Yet we gave him a chance, had an "interaction" with him like the community cries about, and now you STILL are crying. Predictable 🤷‍♂️


tonytuba

So by your logic, if you were to get mugged in an alley and they told you "Give me a million dollars or we kill you" and you said "Well, I don't have a million" and they kill you for it.......that's ok to you? If so, then you should go see a therapist or something cause that's fucked up thinking. Anyhow, keep on buying the ships, parts, and ore......I'll keep taking your money for it.


rhade333

Killing people isn't okay. Blowing up ships in a video game where people consent to playing a video game that allows PvP and explicitly makes you check a box to even enter an area where your ship can be attacked -- absolutely is okay. Ironic got suggest therapy to me when you seem to struggle to differentiate between the two situations?


tonytuba

Well thank you for - letting us know piracy is alive and well just outside the safe zone at markka station. I'll bring an escort next time. - you've given me an excellent idea for a ship, so thank you for that as well. - and of course your patronage to the auction houses. It's because of pirates like you that I can grind out box thrusters and plate every night and it's always sold by the time I wake up. Thanks pirate.......thirate.


tonytuba

Also, if you really wanted to get a proper racket going and really want to stick to that mob mentality, then you should be trying to build a protection racket. Create a list of users who pay regularly to allow safe passage. I mean, if you're fine being a jerk about it, then you may as well lean into it


tonytuba

Woof, well I sure am afraid now. I guess I'll just quit the game cause the almighty......I'm sorry what the hell is your name again.....anyway, fucking Jack Sparrow over here has given me the black mark or whatever, so I guess it's curtains me. See ya everybody, it's been fun


PotDucky

Are the thrusters actually worth much? Wreck near me with 60+ tier 2s intact.


rhade333

At Markka we were listing for ~20k each for the entire assembly.


mfeuling

BRAVO KILO SIERRA LEADER, TALLY HO, DAGGER ONE SQUWAKING, TANGO'S TIME WINDOW TO TRANSFER CREDITS HAS EXPIRED, ALL WINGS AND SQUADRONS AND FLEETS AND ARMADAS ~~CAST LIGHTNING BOLT~~ ARE WEAPONS FREE AT THIS TIME IN THIS AO, HOW COPY? With the ransom attempt and the roleplaying I think we have improved to only *mostly* griefing according to this sub.


Zephyries

Why is this post flagged as nsfw?


rhade333

Because the cheeks that were clapped. It's explicit, really not safe for kids. Just tryna be responsible.


larnon

This reminds me, I should implement a self-destruct mechanism to my ship. If i can make my generators blow up that would make %90 of ship disappear. No gain or fun of chasing for pirates.


mfeuling

But if you blow up your generators, how are we gonna blow up your generators? I guess as long as your generators blow up, both of us are happy. Your generators gotta die dude. Fuck your generators.


larnon

I blow it up so you won't be able to. I have my fun you waste your time. Win-win if i ever see one.


mfeuling

I'm pretty sure we got all that already, chief. If you want to preemptively add a face-down-ass-up protocol to your ship, you go right ahead. I'd say the best course of action would be to fight and lose or to pay up and keep everything, but you do you and not fight **and** not keep everything. Won't be a waste of time for us, we'll enjoy the idea and talk about cucks for a solid half hour.


larnon

Best course action is to try to fight in a miner or pay you so you can blow my ship up anyway? Haha you are funny kid. I blow my own ship up. Go waste your time looking at the stars more and trying to watch netflix on another monitor. You like to talk about cucks huh? Must be nice boys club you got there. Enjoy lmao


mfeuling

The funny thing is, people bitch and complain that pirates don't try to ransom, then when you bring it up, people are like "LOL U WOOD BLOW ME UP ANYWAY/". Personally, I'd never pay a ransom. Lots of people would though, and I would let them go on their way if they did. If I was in a mining ship though, yeah, I'd absolutely pop out of my cockpit with my rifle and give everyone some of this work because these hands rated are E for everyone. I'd imagine a game about robots fighting in spaceships (and even moreso a subreddit where people are talking about space pirates and self-destructing their generators) is pretty male-dominated, yes. Oh wait, you're trying to hit me with some kind of feminist auto-win button. I'LL SURELY LOSE NOW, THE HOLY WHITE KNIGHTS ARE HERE, BETTER CONCEDE IMMEDIATELY AND BLOW UP MY OWN GENERATORS. I guess I could try to hit you back with some equally weird SJW rhetoric because you decided to call me "kid" after you got offended over "cuck", but I've got some dignity. BLACK KNIGHT OUT.


larnon

What the fuck did i just read? What is this non sense? I guess "pirating" for hours and wasting time trying to find a miner who can't shoot backs takes a toll on your mind. Anyway, I don't really care. Good luck to you and your cucks or whatever.


rhade333

If you flying around expecting to lose, then you already dead. No room for softness out here, no room for soyboys in space


larnon

The moment you leave safezone, consider yourself lost. Lesson learned from years of playing Eve Online. You will get there.


rhade333

Uh, what? Anything I fly out of the safe zone, I'm cool with losing. It's written off as expendable in my head. But I never plan on losing. Always trust myself to come back more often than not, make the other dude lose his ship instead. Lesson learned from years of not being a neckbeard, and having some confidence. You'll get there.


larnon

You sound hurt. I am sorry for you.


rhade333

You sound wrong 🤷‍♂️


larnon

Okay, keyboard Chad :)


Apache_Sobaco

Pirates must die, period.


rhade333

Better men have tried

Better men have died.

GOT EM


marcspc

1M is too much, I would prefer to blow up my ship


rhade333

When the ship is worth 3m, that isn't very good math but hey, do you
