Listening to: It’s Too Late

TrickyNicky was a real trickster.

I’ve heard allegations of stream sniping and illegal EULA violating Highsec PvP. However, nobody stream sniped Nick. Absolutely not. Although he was streaming, nobody was watching his stream for any kind of intel or ingame advantage. In fact, believe it or not, but we can actually find you with (or without) combat probes. For real. No cap.

Secondly, as you watch the video, you can see Nick was AFK. In fact, he was busy on a video call, showing off his electric shapes and his shades. Indeed, when I entered local, Nick wasn’t in the same room as his computer! Can you imagine playing any other game, and your opponents aren’t even there? What kind of game is that? Hello?

We must recognize the truth. Miners covet ice and ore, but they refuse to follow basic safety protocols. As dedicated content providers, it is our duty to make EvE Online challenging and interesting, so they decide to actually try and pay attention. They might call us griefers, and threaten to ban us, kill us, rape us, and report us. However, we must do our part to help them stay awake. Remember, this is a game.

We had a quick chat.

Aiko Danuja > If everyone mined all day, then the ore wouldn’t have any value. So when you think about it like that, ganking is good for miners.
TrickyNicky > your not wrong on the ganking
TrickyNicky > tipping my cap = o7
Aiko Danuja > I’ll allow it.

He told me a little about himself.

TrickyNicky > im going to give you my resume
Aiko Danuja > Very well.
TrickyNicky > my main is mining, i have a mackinaw and hulk for ore and ice mining, im about within a month or 2 away from a ship that can do ore and ice compression. (all depends what comes first)
Aiko Danuja > I see.

He also explained his revenge plot.

TrickyNicky > im a numbers guy, I am more in favor by reporting Sargon Of Amerish for stream sniping
TrickyNicky > either way i have caught Sargon Of Amerish for stream sniping. but i would like to put diferrentices aside for future employment.

I sure hope he calms down.

Aiko Danuja > You were reported by an anonymous informant who noticed you did not have a mining permit.
TrickyNicky > thats a “3rd party in game permit” with controversal stream sniping. which in the end is a war…. do we want that???
Aiko Danuja > I should hope not.

Nick left me with an ominous warning.

I asked my mom to review the gank.

Don’t worry mom, I’ll save the miners.

Thanks for the memories (and augmented mining drones).

… I’m holding on to this scram
Got your shields ten percent down
And I’m hearing what you say
But I just don’t even care

… You tell me that you need ore
Then you go AFK, and oh wait
You tell me that you’re sorry
Didn’t think I’d warp in and say

… That it’s too late to apologize, it’s too late
I said it’s too late to apologize, it’s too late
Too late, oh

… I’d take another security hit, just let it fall
To take a shot at you
But that’s nothing new, yeah yeah

… I loved you with neutrons, flashing red
And you say it’s just not fair
CCP let you think it was safe
But you should be afraid

… It’s too late to apologize, it’s too late
I said it’s too late to apologize, it’s too late, whoa
