Massive Success! Not only did I pull another 6 exhumers from space, I snatched a Pithi B-Type Small Shield Booster from a mackinaw (lol), and grabbed about 10 Intact Armor Plates on my now fully functional salvage alt. I am now at -4.15, which prevents me from operating at 100% functionality. Clone jumping to hang out in low/null and maybe grinding sec status if I feel so inclined. + Show Spoiler + 1. http://spawningpool.killmail.org/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=12612691 (Storyline mod tank, lol) 2. http://spawningpool.killmail.org/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=12612691 3. http://spawningpool.killmail.org/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=12613110 4. http://spawningpool.killmail.org/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=12613404 (Pithi B-Type Whatup) 5. http://spawningpool.killmail.org/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=12616044 6. http://spawningpool.killmail.org/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=12616416 | ||

Hi, I wanted to send you some information about a member you have recruited. Kirk Hammet is a confirmed blue tackler for Test alliance. One of our member corps in our alliance made the mistake of recruiting him several months ago. Shortly afterwards he hot dropped several of our blues alongside his Test buddies... if you look at his killboard you will see that the bulk of his kills are in belts with Test as backup. I do hope that he doesnt tackle any of your blues. So thats why I have cyno 5 :D | ||

I've been told Firebolt and Mandini are usually buying CN tags. How much are you paying for them? After observing Jita buy orders for a bit the tag prices seemed a little too high to make it worthwhile. Not counting ammo or implants, there was only one item which would earn me >2000 isk per LP. I'll buy your quafe LP. | ||

Have you considered making 51s and training them up to catalyst for this then scrapping them when their sec status gets too low? | ||

I'm going to try out a few more things before I just sell them off. I'd really like to do this by myself. How much would you give me for them? | ||

Ah, so you gank miners in highsec, steal their ore, then build it into things you can sell. ![[image loading]](http://i692.photobucket.com/albums/vv286/Body_Shield/tumblr_lqb877J2bS1qkd0yi.gif) | ||

My activity in terms of playing EVE has been irregular. I'd say that about 4 months of those 12 months, I had basically no activity. Despite that, I've done a lot of shit - so much that it's even hard to remember it all. Seems like years of my life happened in this game. --EVE EVE is a strange experience. If you come into it alone, with only yourself and the game, you won't get it. It's a sandbox, and you run out of guidance very quickly. In fact, I'd say that most people that have played EVE don't even understand where the game is, what to actually do to get at the meat of the game. EVE is not your traditional MMO experience. EVE chews up and spits out traditional MMO audiences like a meat grinder. You'll find no warm, sunny beach with palm trees here. No rolling meadows with rabbits or whatever the fuck running around. In EVE, people are out for your blood. Nowhere is safe. Someone will find you buried in your hiding place, pummel you nearly to death. The next day they'll log onto their trade alt and scam you out of every penny you own. Many many people have ragequit this game, some with years of playtime behind them. --Hatchery Hatchery is very much the best corp in EVE. Like EVE, it is a meat grinder. But unlike EVE, it has a will and direction and a reason. Many do not make it far in EVE, even with the help of Hatchery. If you can't make it past the gauntlet of trolling, if you can't shoulder unreasonable responsibility, if you can't own up to mistakes you couldn't possibly comprehend fully - then you are just one of the unfortunate many. But Hatchery pulls its members from the TL community. And this community is about as badass and battle-hardened as you can get. So man up and stick with it. The rewards are uncountable. The Hatchery philosophy is all about being the best. Besides being the best pvp corp in game, Hatchery has experts in every field of the game. Any facet of industry, market, pve, pvp, game mechanics - someone in Hatchery is the undisputed expert on the subject. That's what happens when you take in TL membership and you hammer them with responsibility and knowledge that no Random Joe can sustain - once the flames have died down, a Hatchery member steps from the smouldering ashes. When I first joined up, I was clueless and poor. I made most of my ISK off pvp since Hatchery collected and sold loot and distributed prize ISK to the top ten pilots. But there is this awesome guy named Pufftrees who seemingly printed ISK at will. He did stuff with contracts and was nice enough to loan me 1b (1,000,000,000.00 ISK) for my first "serious" month of contracts. I paid him back easily and was very successful with contracts. I eventually went on to obsessively dip my hands in all kinds of cashflow all throughout EVE. Thanks to individuals like Pufftrees, Motbob, and KwarK and thanks to the Hatchery philosophy in general, I am obscenely wealthy in game today. In 1 year, I've made more than dozens of random EVE players will make in their entire EVE career. Similarly, while I'm not the best in the game at pvp, I am steadily climbing my way up there. Through intensive study and with Hatchery-instilled mechanics and philosophy, I will one day be among the best pvpers in the game's history. Make a note. --DefMatrix Ultra I wouldn't call my career illustrious or any other such word. I'm a Hatchery member, so excellence is par for the course. I've had a lot of fun in pvp. My first few months, I flew nothing but Rifters and loved the shit out of it. There's really nothing like zooming around at 5 kilometers a second only to land the real killing blow on your enemy - the tackle. When you're zipping from victim to victim with 50 combat drones painting a target on your head, you feel truly alive. In a time where everyone was training Drake or Hurricane, I decided that I disliked BCs, and to this day I have Battlecruiser II trained. I trained to a ship that I thought was unimaginably cool - an Imperial Navy Slicer. Within a few months, I had a nearly maxed Slicer, and I still love the ship to death today. I've done a ton of solo pvp (more than most Hatchery members) in my trusty Slicer. I could post a bunch of killmails, but solo pvp is so much more than just mails. You learn a lot of stuff about the game when you're all alone with no intel, no safety net, and a bit of bloodlust. But I will post some cool fleet mails. + Show Spoiler [Mails, Baby, Mails] + In EVE, killmails are publicly available records of fights. On each individual mail is the fit of the person that died, all the people that attacked that person, and how much damage each attacker did (and other info like the loot dropped etc.). If you look at a bunch of mails all together, you can link many of them to the same event. If one guy dies and was killed by 20 other people, then you know that the 1 guy and the 20 other people were both there. Many times, people are on each other's mails and you can start to work out who all was involved in the battle. Thankfully killboards do this automatically in the form of battle reports (disclaimer, sometimes the software gets it wrong). + Show Spoiler [Fleet Battles] + These are some of the cool fleet battles I've been in. Keep in mind, not only is this not every larger battle I've been in, it's not even close to every battle that Hatchery has been in. My activity was very much on/off depending on my RL situation at the time. At one point, I basically stopped playing the game for 3 months - logging in only to update skill queues. Keep in mind that these range from my very beginnings up to now. In some of these battles, I have over 20m skillpoints, and others I'm a complete, utter noobie. http://teamliquid.killmail.org/?a=kill_related&kll_id=9455209 http://teamliquid.killmail.org/?a=kill_related&kll_id=9504307 http://teamliquid.killmail.org/?a=kill_related&kll_id=9608131 http://teamliquid.killmail.org/?a=kill_related&kll_id=9846213 http://teamliquid.killmail.org/?a=kill_related&kll_id=10075976 http://teamliquid.killmail.org/?a=kill_related&kll_id=12052780 http://teamliquid.killmail.org/?a=kill_related&kll_id=12081492 http://teamliquid.killmail.org/?a=kill_related&kll_id=12370464 http://teamliquid.killmail.org/?a=kill_related&kll_id=12371130 http://teamliquid.killmail.org/?a=kill_related&kll_id=12427117 http://teamliquid.killmail.org/?a=kill_related&kll_id=12479133 http://teamliquid.killmail.org/?a=kill_related&kll_id=12479819 http://teamliquid.killmail.org/?a=kill_related&kll_id=12566814 http://teamliquid.killmail.org/?a=kill_related&kll_id=12567488 http://teamliquid.killmail.org/?a=kill_related&kll_id=12567490 http://teamliquid.killmail.org/?a=kill_related&kll_id=12607988 http://teamliquid.killmail.org/?a=kill_related&kll_id=12609564 + Show Spoiler [Random Notable Kills] + --- http://teamliquid.killmail.org/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=9529271 This was Hatchery's first carrier kill. It was a neat event as a noobie rifter pilot (my 2nd month playing the game). http://teamliquid.killmail.org/?a=kill_related&kll_id=9529271 <- Battle Report --- http://teamliquid.killmail.org/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=9897948 This guy is a complete douchebag. He is in an incredibly expensive and (at the time) overpowered ship and challenged our friend Emdar (Marvlyn) to a 1v1. Marvlyn is in a cheap-ass T1 non-combat ship. This fucker is basically going around preying on noobs and getting cheap kills with no risk to himself or his expensive ship. We set up a trap where they would 1v1 at a planet. This planet was very close to a gate to another system. In that system - on the other side of the gate - was everyone else was waiting patiently. ShoreTay was on the planet watching the duel happen in a cloaked ship, waiting to decloak and lock down the target. Everything went well, and the guy got trapped and didn't even manage to kill the crappy non-combat ship. As a bonus, we podded him too ( http://teamliquid.killmail.org/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=9897952 ) back in a time when pods did not show implant losses. --- http://teamliquid.killmail.org/?a=kill_related&kll_id=10134074 This massive clusterfuck of a fight started with a friendly Thanatos missioning as bait. He was attacked and had 5 carriers dropped on him. We took the opportunity to batphone in as much help as possible. All in all, I believe this fight took about 2 hours. We first landed on the field in a few BCs just to hold point while reinforcements arrived. --- http://teamliquid.killmail.org/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=12062527 This was a guy we jumped in Delve. He was ratting but not being careful enough. This one is notable to me as this guy died in under 4 minutes instead of the 20-40 I was used to for killing a carrier. Hatchery used to be just a bunch of guys in BCs and Rifters, but we are fielding more serious hardware with each passing day. --In Closing Hatchery Life. + Show Spoiler + Some bros come and go. But Hatchery are bros for life. Every loss is a shared loss, and every victory a shared victory. When one of us makes a mistake, we're all pissed, and when we pull incredible shit off we know it was all of us. Specifically, I'd like to mention: Michael Harari (aka DiracMonopole) - This guy was my mentor since 1 year ago. He gets shit done. Pufftrees - Contract extroardinaire and Hatchery's bravest Harbinger pilot by far. KwarK - Fearless and calculating FC and consummate Drake pilot. Tofu - Don't know what to say, honestly, but Hatchery just wouldn't work without you. Jed - Sexy voice bros since '73. Mandini - You've had your own journey similar to mine and have grown into the badass you are today. Emdar - Haven't seen you around much, but we were blood brothers in Curse. Aeth - We have different philosophies and goals when it comes to flying, but we are m8s 4 lief. Body Shield - Aside from being a solid pilot of any ship you're in, you're also the best shitposter since BBQ. Caelum - You're a massive quebeccer faggot (and don't even know it), but we are true m8s. VoV - I shudder to think how the Hatchery would be if someone weren't there to keep these motherfuckers in line. Karah - So incredibly German. Ueberlisk - Your one-man terror campaign against an entire region is inspiring and a model to all Hatchery members. Firebolt - You are way too nice. Like secret serial killer nice. Lee - You were almost entirely responsible for the (somewhat) ethical treatment of new members and the organization of the new-member-experience. Motbob - Your continued brilliance and success is a large part of what made Hatchery so successful today. | ||
