EVE: Shiny Cyberbullies

Posted on March 29, 2012 by SynCaine

This post is not about offing yourself, I swear. It is about bullies, but fear not, it’s actually about EVE and real gameplay. As I mentioned in a post pre-KillYourselfGate, INQ-E has started running Incursions as a Corp. Our first … Continue reading →

I’m so Massively entertained right now I might die from laughter

Posted on March 29, 2012 by SynCaine

I’m sorry, I don’t mean to keep posting about this (yes I do), but when Massively provides you with such gifts, it would simply be rude to refuse them.  Some of the finer words of the white knights of Massively, … Continue reading →

EVE: Mittani steps ‘down’

Posted on March 28, 2012 by SynCaine

The Mittani Apology

Posted on March 26, 2012 by SynCaine

Full link here. I like this part: There’s no excuse for what I did – while some might try to use my inebriation as a mitigating factor, I put myself in that compromised mental state, and the guilt of that … Continue reading →

All cyber-bullies should die

Posted on March 26, 2012 by SynCaine

Is it just me or is Massively home to the softest people on the Internet? Case in point: Goon being a goon, Massively white knights come out in full force. I think my favorite is the “There we have another … Continue reading →

EVE: INQ-E Incursion night

Posted on March 23, 2012 by SynCaine

Last night INQ-E ran our first Incursion night, and it went very well. We had ten pilots, including two logi, and knocked out eight or nine Vanguard sites (all MCOs) in around two hours. Only once, ironically on our very … Continue reading →

EVE: Fanfest, Dust bombing

Posted on March 22, 2012 by SynCaine
