Which is funny because they have in the past deleted a few people's employment history, and there are some that should have been deleted like citzno(some numbers here) whose history in 2006 took minutes to load.

I read the recent article: http://themittani.com/features/did-cfc-just-win-eve

In the comments, Grath pointed out that the claim that Kugutsumen created PL was incorrect, so I asked Kugutsumen.

Here is the reply I after talking to Mulla / Kugutsumen about it on mobile text.

---

Kugutsumen was the executor of PL. Cartifex Imperator was one of his alts and is listed as the creator of Pandemic Legion. http://www.eveinfo.net/wiki/in~10696.htm https://www.pandemic-legion.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-7279.html Kugutsumen was also a director of Sniggerdly, inner circle member and CEO of Sniggwaffe. Here is some additional information: https://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Sniggwaffe_(Player_corporation)

---

Kugutsumen also claims that it was he who convinced Shamis Orzoz to create PL and to ally with "The Goons".

---

Grath is a stupid fat piece of poo poo, and this is correct. Kugutsumen was if not absolutely directly responsible for the entire thing was at least incredibly instrumental.

CEO update, only really important part is this:

quote:

Effective immediately, all Goonwaffe members will enjoy a 100% reimbursement bonus on all subcapital reimbursement, peacetime or strategic, in addition to the alliance rate. That means that if a Waffe member loses a Harpy, not only will he receive the current standard 45m isk reimbursement which is the alliance default, he will also receive an additional 45m isk from the corp: you will literally profit from PvP, not merely PvP for free. This brings Waffe reimbursements in line with the existing membercorp bonus reimbursements which are handled at a corp level.

"Teenagers Have Poor Judgement" stop using that joke wrong.

I guess I should at least explain the joke: In the 06/07(?) war against LV TCF suprise sieged 1v- which was typical TCF fashion. Goons rushed in to help and Redswarm Federation basically held the system. LV used this as an oppurtunity to unveil The Enslavers new Avatar and deploy the DDD through a cyno (a long dead mechanic). Despite destroying hundreds of ships RSF held the system and the station was named "1v- Teenagers have poor Judgement" in an attempt to point out The Enslaver was a child. The problem is Kugustumen outed Enslaver as a GM so clearly wasn't a child.

All this because it wasn't until 2012 that gankers figured out the trick of jumping into a ship already in space* and warping before the space police show up. If you undock a -10 character from a station or jump through a gate, the faction police already in space can scram you unless you were in a very quick-aligning ship. So the "boomerang exploit" quickly became common knowledge and lead to a renaissance of ganking with permanent -10 alts.

The boomerang became public knowledge because a freighter got killed by a solo tornado who kept warping back and forth to avoid concord. Weaselior/Evil Weasel used it to solo clear out ice mining belts in a tornado, he'd warp up the belt and hit someone and then warp to the bottom of the belt (at least 150km away) and kill someone, rinse and repeat.

Pod killing is the least efficient way to burn sec, since pods are way way way more penalizing to shoot and kill than ships. The most efficient way to burn off sec is instapopping haulers or frigates carrying expensive loot. You can also smartbomb clouds of miners just fine at -10, you get in a fastish ship like a typhoon, come to a complete stop outside station, then hit warp. Faction rats web then scram.

Also to whoever said times, it's not 12s it's x seconds per system sec, + 6s for prepped concord. 19s total in .5, 12s total in a 1.0.

I applied to the sig almost two weeks ago, it's still pending. :saddowns:

I feel like that's probably because I don't have enough hisec kills, but solo ganking isn't exactly easy and nobody in sigma/theta ever wants to help me ruin my sec status. I can fit a T2 catalyst if I want to solo gank a retriever, but that's throwing 10-15M at getting maybe 4-6M in module drops. Which I won't be able to pick up for 15 minutes, and by then both wrecks will have been looted.

If you're worried about making money ganking you have to gank haulers/frigates carrying too much poo poo. Otherwise you just accept it as a cost of business. Either way you need multiple accounts, one or more for scouting/looting and then actual ganking characters.

IIRC, he was hired to hack our forums by bob. And when he delivered, they said "gently caress you get bent". Which seems like a bad thing to say to the guy who just proved to you he could hack a forum, when you too have your own forum.

So he hacked their forum, found evidence that all the "logistics problems" of helping LV(?) were actually them tired of propping up LV, and that devs were giving them the lowdown on upcoming expansions before anyone else, and some other poo poo.


tl;dr: when you hire a hacker to do a thing, and he does the thing, you pay him.

That was LV that hired him I'm pretty sure.
