so you're saying that irony is a convenient cover for racists to be racist and exclusionary, and spread their ideology under the guise of "dark humor"?

HIS HONKER WAS BROKE

or

Perhaps the Real Scam was the Friends We Made Along the Way :shobon:

So, while in a ratting fleet that was farming for deadspace spawns in one of the dead-end systems off the horseshoe, I sold a pubbie a mining permit for 10 million isk, with the idea being that he could buy a mining permit for himself and his corp could buy more mining permits for more isk to, I dunno, get a security detail around so they don�t get murdered while being dumb unprotected miners in nullsec or something.

He sounded really interested in it and was even genuinely grateful that we were too busy farming anomalies to bother hunting around a bunch of belts looking for a single boring miner to kill. But his corp leader was a little bit less naive than he was and didn�t want to just contract over 50 million isk to some random rear end in a top hat one of his corp members met in local, which, fair enough. I wouldn�t do that either.

But why settle for 10 million when a little more effort can get a bigger fish on the hook for 50 million? So I posted in the discord a 2.5 million bounty for the first 3 people to bump into him accidentally and spare his mining life while saying something that acknowledged he purchased a mining permit, as a "please let me scam his corp" bribe.

It turns out, Rytheric was already known to us as being pretty chatty and friendly, and ten million when you�re doing deadspace ops is� not even a lot.

Alligator Tower here was very prescient, guess that�s why he�s head of diplo and on the leadership council:

As part of this gimmick, I also told Rytheric to honk in local if he saw us, so that we would know not to murder him. And honk in local he did:

He even congratulated us when Jazz finally made the alliance for us (third time�s the charm).

And all of that was working. The honking was funny and it was successfully convincing the flock, �this funny-looking thing must be a gosling, maybe I shouldn�t murder it�. The mining permit? Still fake. The safety? Well� that was looking pretty real, and a Venture II�s worth more than 10 million. That�s what people say, anyways. I wouldn�t know because I don�t pay for ships.

This fake mining permit, or possibly real protection racket, was delivering so much safety, in fact, that when Rytheric�s friend Airbrat got himself killing in a mining operation, Rytheric asked around and got referred back to me so that he could buy Airbrat a fake mining permit too.

Of course, as part of this he also had to teach Airbrat how to honk in local.

Unfortunately, tragedy struck. Airbrat disconnected after an angry goose honked at him in system and was unable to honk back in time to show that he was a cute gosling and not an unauthorized miner.

HIS HONKER WAS BROKE

I was busy but other goons (thanks Blessed Blake, thanks Ch4ot1cEv17, thanks thezanke except for the part where you killed him but also that was funny too) quickly did damage control once they realized that someone had squished a maybe-gosling.

After that, I didn�t have the heart to keep the ruse going. I told him what was up and sent him the info for our diplo team. I also gave him some advice on how not to get scammed again and encouragement to keep honking for mercy and maybe offer tribute to particularly bloodthirsty geese.

He took it quite well. Honestly, it sounded like the part that made him the most sad was that all this being a scam meant his corp wasn�t going to have security on a mining op they were hoping to do later.

And even after all that, he was cool and chill in our local.

As the Catgirl Trade Consortium says:

There�s plenty of targets to gank even with one cute naive corp blued.

I have handed them off to (real) diplo hands now. And maybe one day...
