somebody will hit you up. Or apply to diplomatic disruption. That will get you sorted out as well.

Join the club, my 7 year old carebear is back to being the only member of my corp, I took a 6 month break, and my entire corp was abandoned when I got back. I just got an Orca, but it's usless because my alt can't even fly a mining barge let alone a Hulk.

JStorm is just trying to rile you up to come down and fight us. It makes things easier when we have people come to us. I could care less if we win or lose the fights, but having fights is what is fun in the game. Losing them just means we need to have a better or quicker counter. Usually the latter, as the response time can be pretty bad after times of inactivity.

That said, he is right that we don't post our kills to battle clinic. For example, I have ~800 kills on our board, but only 671 in battleclinic. Mostly because we only post to the one board. Even so we generally only have around 10-50 kills a day in the corp, and that varies greatly depending on what we are doing. If we roam to Amamake, or Old Man Star, we will get a lot usually, but if we are having a lazy day and just hang out down the chain, we'll just kill the guys from wormholes or tourists in the area.

But the whole alliance is actually very tight, in that we do most things as an alliance. Or at least all PvP related stuff. I am not selfish, in that I let anyone tag along with me as long as they are blue.

If you want to come down and blow me up, you are welcome to. I have been far less careful lately, so it shouldn't be that hard. I just lost a Mega to station hugging pirates, because I DCed and couldn't broadcast fast enough when I finally logged back on. No biggy though, but I am low on ISK so I will be without a gank Mega for a week or so. I'll just have to bring my RR Domi when I need to use a RR BS.

Edit:

Prove it. Oh, also, throw up your personal KB? Maybe if things get quiet some night, I (or we), may jump over to New Eden to take a look around.

You can ask Koronakesh since he is always in the area. Although I can't remember him ever actually fighting us. I think the last time I saw him undocked was in a Pilgrim. But I have seen him in local often around Genesis/Kor Azor/Kador.

I am sure that you do well where you are at, but you are welcome to come down our way. We will always welcome visitors. Things don't always turn out well, but we have a lot of fun with it anyway. I wish I could throw up some links to battles we were in and lost that still were a blast, but the evekb site is down while they change servers. I'll have to do it another time.

shrug. I honestly don't know if we'll ever move 16 jumps just for a fight .. even though it is what, 2 jumps for our caps? We get enough action here that I'm not sure I could convince anyone to make a 30 minute trip for a fight. Seems we're getting a decent BS/Carrier/SC fight every few days now anyway. We'll see though, who knows.

I know what you mean. I am burnt out on long distance roams. I used to love taking fleets to Old Man Star or Amamake, but I just don't feel like it anymore. In fact, I often don't even put together a roam unless I find an actual target first. I just don't have the drive I used to, where the once a week roam to OMS or Amamake is now long gone, and I don't think I have been there in over a month.

In fact I don't really even feel like proof reading my posts anymore. But that is more because I feel exhausted right now. I really can't even remember why I started this post, so I guess I will stop now. Maybe I will take some time and come meet you in your home system sometime. I know those used to be a lot of fun.

You know, I don't so much mind the distance if I'm PROMISED something to shoot at. It's those 30 min trips that you take only to find there are no targets for whatever reason (not enough numbers, not the right ships, sissies, etc.. etc.. etc.). There's nothing worse than spending an hour jumping systems only to have not fired a shot except at corpies out of extreme boredom.

 

[Andres3605]

Have been playing eve for a while now, mainly in pvp aspect, have been in a NC alliance for 4 years or so, still having fun with the game.

I will break open the Carbon "dance" then:

Way better than:

.. snip ...

Yeah, the avatar creator is pretty impressive. I did my main first, which was a mistake, and have gotten much better at using it while doing my alts. Oh well, I don't really care that much. I do think Caldari look pretty badass, though.

I think everyone is getting 1 free redo.

 

[Fallen Kell]

Not really. The explanation on the "grace" period is actually more or less, you get to play with it for a few weeks and can keep the "blank" avatar until then. Once the grace period is over, you are forced to run the create avatar program, and be done with it. There is no mention at all of allowing you to re-do it, and they even try to spell that out without specifically saying "thou shall not have any redoes".

Yep, saw the announcement today at login. Must be a lot of people petitioning for redos.

A recent forum post explains that you'll soon be able to get one free re-customization during the grace period. Sometime after the grace period ends they'll add some other way of allowing players to redesign their portraits. Probably for $15 or a PLEX.

It will probably be $10, that what it was to change your portrait before.

I like the editor though, it is nice but at the same time as someone who likes to see the numbers I wish there was a scale bar you could see as well.

 

[power_hour]

The portraits seem nice enough. The new shortcuts seem like a step in the right direction. Curous about the incursions? They fun?

 

[Fallen Kell]

Here is my first attempt:

I think he is pretty bad-ass

 

[Acanthus]

Mine: I nearly matched him to my old portrait.

I finally changed my avatar, and after a few hours trying to set up my Planetary Interaction crap again, I went out and got my first 7 kills with my new Avatar.
- This 200M ISK Abaddon was actually scouting for a Mamoth when it jumped into our space. Makes me wonder what was in the Mamoth that the 200M ISK abaddon was a considered easier to lose?
- Caught this Caracal leaving my station after it had bought some missile launchers from us.
- I wanted to make sure he got back home as quickly as possible, since he was in a bad neighborhood.
- An 8 man shield fleet went to the Eve Gate to check it out. They also prescribed to the BS scout idea that Abaddon had, since this Raven was the first to jump each time.
- None of these guys seemed to fit a point. Although this Domi did actually shoot at me.
- The Harbi tried to burn back to the gate, and he almost made it.
- Unlike the other two Drakes, the Blackbird, and Osprey that got away, this Drake just sat there pointed while we took down his friends. Didn't even try to move while we took our time getting to him.

I didn't understand why that 8 man gang didn't try to engage us, since on paper they looked like they could have maybe taken a coupel of us with them, but after seeing the fits I realized they were all PvE fit. I don't understand why you would take a PvE fit "gang" a dozen jumps into low-sec. I thought they were coming to try to fight us, but I guess they were just being dumb.

Now I just have to remember how to upload my avatar to the killboard, since I haev a new one.

When I first read this, for a split second I thought you went out roaming with your new Titan and was thoroughly confused. Wow, I may actually have to come out your way at some point as it seems your neck of the woods attracts the failfit brigade. Not a single one of those kills has any truly respectable pvp fit.. truly bizarre. It's just carnage.

The nano Abaddon was my favorite. We weren't really camping the gate, just scouting the other side, and had a HIC there to hold him when he jumped through. Guess he didn't think that more than two points would be on him before he could warp.

I thought for sure it was bait, since it was an Abaddon jumping alone into low-sec. Nothing screams bait more than that. As it turned out, the pilot had just eaten a lot of paint chips as a child.
