We're doing this again. Oh man why are we doing this again.

https://secure.eveonline.com/trial/?inv ... tion=buddy

If you haven't played before you can use that link to get an extended trial. As a bonus, if you end up subscribing I get free shit. I don't remember what the free shit is. It used to be PLEX, which equated to a fuckton of money, and the tradition was to split the profits of selling that thing with the new player. So using that link gives you extra trial time and potentially 400,000,000 bonus ISK if you end up subbing.

Enough fucking sales pitch though.

I reactivated my account, moved a bunch of shit around, and have started on the path of greatness as Nanotrasen's CEO once more. I apologize to everyone in corp who may have kept playing after I left. Looking at the wallet and the activity, it doesn't seem like many did.

Here's the dealio: we're a mining/industry corp. I imagine at some point we might roam around together blowing up rats and exploring. If you want to be a space dick and griff the stars this really isn't the outfit for you. Most of the people who were playing were so damn new our military force is nonexistent nor do we have the funds to be extorted. That could change some day but my vision for NTI for the moment is to hang out comfy cozy doing high-sec PVE stuff and shooting rocks. If you actually know how to research/produce items more power to you. We might even be able to work out some sort of minerals exchange.

My ingame name is Dante Frey. You can go look at my pathetic killboard if you want. I'm actually up on ISK in damage done vs losses taken thanks to one shitfit broam I was in that killed a recon ship.

If I ever did want to get back in(which I probably don't) the corp doesn't really fit my... needs. I'd been gearing up for covert ops bullshit in caldari covert ops cruisers. And I'm not going back to mining, fuck that.

by **Timbrewolf** » Sat Aug 09, 2014 12:44 am #23489

PVP aint no good if you can't PLEX. The point of the corp is to try and get as many people from brand-new to PLEX'ing as fast as possible.

Focusing on PVP comes after you have a solid economic base to dip into and bounce back from the inevitable losses. I mean, what are you even planning on doing? Hanging around null/low-sec in a stealth bomber trying to gank and loot random idiots for money?

Best of luck with that.

by **ThanatosRa** » Sat Aug 09, 2014 3:49 am #23524

You missed my point. I'm not fucking coming back. Not with the mismanaged idiocy going on inside CCP.

by **Drynwyn** » Tue Aug 12, 2014 3:53 am #23836

Well, I've been thinking about trying EVE for some time now... I do like ship-flying games, and Anon-senpai suggested it, so what the hell. Is there a teamspeak or the like?

by **iamgoofball** » Tue Aug 12, 2014 4:41 am #23841

inb4 someone steals literally everything in the corporate hangar

by **srifenbyxp** » Tue Aug 12, 2014 12:36 pm #23863

i've tried eve and dropped it twice. That shit is more complex than dwarf fortress

by **ColonicAcid** » Tue Aug 12, 2014 3:05 pm #23879

We can get a teamspeak if needs be but right now there's only two people who know what they're doing (anon and dezz) and im joining soon but im newbie shit tier.

by **srifenbyxp** » Tue Aug 12, 2014 7:17 pm #23901

Sometime Thursday i'll give another go at EVE and you can hear me lick my keyboard in hopes of my ship moving to where I want it to.

by **Timbrewolf** » Tue Aug 12, 2014 9:39 pm #23923

Purchased a beautiful space submarine and fit it with a bunch of missile tubes.

God I love how this thing looks.

by **ThanatosRa** » Tue Aug 12, 2014 9:42 pm #23924

FUcker. You remind me that i still need to get another Rokh. Or a Naga.

by **ColonicAcid** » Tue Aug 12, 2014 10:36 pm #23928

That thing looks like the amars empress' own custom dido.

by **Timbrewolf** » Wed Aug 13, 2014 1:54 am #23947

Wow our corporation is actually turning into a real thing. I paid more attention and have started creating roles and duties and shit.

I ponied up the 20,000,000 to rent us some swag offices and moved our HQ into them.
We're actually legit now. We can create our own dumping ground for items and shit.

Let the industry commence.

Is SoH still laggy as fuck and keeps this retarded circle building scheme (squares infinitely better)?
Also i heard that Galaxy got restarted this year.

Account created- Will play with you faggets at 1800 ten hutz

by **Timbrewolf** » Thu Aug 14, 2014 1:54 pm #24135

NTSI is our corp ticker. Nanotrasen Inc is the full corp name. You have to apply to join, we can't just invite you. Our corp details has everything you need to know once you've been accepted.

I want to get everyone together to run some L1's and L2's as a gang tonight, probably around 8pm EST. I'm only going to be bringing a destroyer so other people can actually learn stuff. We can talk about fits and the fundamental differences between fitting a hull for PVE vs. PVP.

eeeewwwww

you guys are playing eve wrong

you're supposed to be lying and scheming and fucking with people and pirating and scamming

not running missions

missions are the worst part of the game

so is mining

and if you're not in nullsec don't bother ratting

Gotta learn to walk before you can run. Gotta get the ISK to buy the guns before you can shoot anyone with them.

Nope nope nope, fuck it dropped again.

Tuts fucking bugged saying it's given me ammo to load up for the weapon basics but I can't load my gun if the shit doesn't give me ammo

by **Timbrewolf** » Fri Aug 15, 2014 2:00 am #24223

You should try checking your item hangar on the station you picked up the mission at, or the cargo hold for the ship you were in when you accepted it.

When in doubt go into your assets menu and look around to see where you own things.

I've never played EVE online before, hrm.
Maybe I'll give it a shot in the next few days.

by **Timbrewolf** » Wed Aug 20, 2014 7:33 am #24774

Oh my christ. I was talking with an ISK scammer about some of the morons they've met and they shared this with me:

https://soundcloud.com/kalorned/erotica ... oom_sohkar

It's magical. tl;dr they get someone to hand over everything they own in game and then screw with them for over two hours.

by **ColonicAcid** » Wed Aug 20, 2014 11:53 pm #24912

Yo so like who's everyone's names and shit.

I'm getting confused with these space aliases yknowwhatimsayin'

Also only 4 more days till I can get a mining barge!

by **peoplearestrange** » Fri Aug 22, 2014 4:28 pm #25132

I used to love EVE, fought along side a few large corps. Until I realised how "inside job" the larger corp wars became, till it became literately CCP spawn shit for people. Then the large corps were shit.

But the smaller corps can be fun, until all you do is mine, then your basicly spending your time earning money to pay for more time and repeat.

It does look beautiful though and going on a really long journey whilst listening to music (Cowboy Bebop music fits so well, obviously I guess) can actually be pretty relaxing (or intense if you go through a lowsec/nulsec short cut haha)

by **ThanatosRa** » Fri Aug 22, 2014 7:21 pm #25156

Admittedly, I DO kind wanna go back just to cock about in Old Man Star.

Erotica got banned for that and everyone flipped their shit about bullying, it was hilarious.

Are you sure? I swore I saw activity on Erotica1's account not that long ago.

I didn't realize it but the guy I was talking to about scammers and shooting the shit with was the CEO of the corp that made that recording.

I keep bumping into random "EVE celebs". I was THIS close to getting a recording of someone suicide smartbombing a horde of bot miners but they didn't pull the trigger.

by **ThanatosRa** » Tue Aug 26, 2014 7:15 pm #25624

I already know that if I did come back and did join, I have a horrifying feeling that You'll never let me do ANYTHING But use my decent mining skills and AGAIN I'll be marginalized into a role I fucking hate oh god Kill ME NEVER COMING BACK.

by **Timbrewolf** » Tue Aug 26, 2014 7:18 pm #25625

I run combat sites 420 blaze it. We're talking about ganging up in Logi's and Battleships to go blast the shit out of some L4's in a gang.

I'd LOVE to see us getting to a point where we could run babby level Incursion sights in a group.

I recommend people mine because it's fucking piss easy and you can do it while you read up on how to do more shit, look around the world a little bit, and figure out what you want to do next. Having mining as a base to pull up buckets of ISK to fund OTHER stuff is great.

Playing EVE to do nothing but mine allday errday is just another job don't do that.

EDIT: Aww yeah girl bought a plex, this metal gear looking Solid Eye thing, and some cyberlimbs for maximum swag. Still have roughly 1.5bil in assets and liquid ISK. Feels good to be a gangster. I'm wearing altogether like 1.25bil worth of clothes and shit. We rich now.

by **ThanatosRa** » Tue Aug 26, 2014 9:40 pm #25655

I'd give a small consideration to coming back if were could go high end Cornho-... i mean Wormholin'. Of course I have people who would take my betrayal poorly.

by **ColonicAcid** » Tue Aug 26, 2014 10:56 pm #25665

1 day for industry V and in turn start work on my core skills.

At this rate I'll have a million sp by the end of next week or slightly over that.

by **Timbrewolf** » Tue Aug 26, 2014 11:11 pm #25667

I forgot how lucrative stomping through L4's is.

I also forgot how fucking slow some parts are when you're floating around at fucking 135m/s and you need to take something out of a container that is 20km away.

We should blob up.

EDIT:

CASH MONEY MOTHERFUCKER

I desperately need more people who can fly and fit battleships for these L4's. I made roughly only like 25mil an hour doing them, but I know I could supercharge that if I had one or two more bro's manning the guns.

No, I don't need someone following behind me looting and salvaging shit. That part of the mission takes like 5 extra minutes in my Noctis. We need more DPS.

Going to join up with an alliance of industrialists and occaisonal thugs. Should take effect in 48 hours. This will give us more people to coordinate and earn with while also providing a little more oomph and opportunity for fleet ops.

I would like a chance to talk with people about some basic PVP stuff if not get in some shitfit frigs and go demonstrate.

by **ColonicAcid** » Wed Aug 27, 2014 2:39 pm #25745

we aren't joining pasta?
wowie i like their video

by **Timbrewolf** » Wed Aug 27, 2014 10:10 pm #25853

I talked to wheniaminspace about joining the alliance and all he gave me was a nebulous "we should talk more" then stopped responding to my emails.

I'd rather not wait forever. I've found another, smaller, more like-minded and similarly compose alliance we can roll with for now.

If it turns out to be a poor fit or we just grow out of it I can always reapply to Pasta.

by **Mindustry** » Thu Aug 28, 2014 8:23 pm #25976

I signed up and intend to salvage things. I'll probably sub next month.

He's probably trying to figure out how to rip you off.

TRUST NO ONE. Don't go into ANY deal without an escape plan. Insure your shit and keep a high sec haven to store shit in case it goes south.

TRUST NO ONE.

Lost my Raven in an L4 story mission. Fuggg. Insurance covered the cost of the hull, and I managed to come back and loot the wreck while clearing the rest of the site.

Altogether between rigs and insurance and whatnot I lost probably about ~150mil? Oh well.

It was a good excuse to go buy one of these:

Gurista's Rattlesnake Battleship
812DPS. 81,000 EHP. Stomps L4's alone or in a group. Big bad drone snipe boat.
