I am sure all of you are aware that Shamrock Vurture (aka VK Deathslayer) has gone rouge. He kick everyone from my corp and stole about 170mill ISK from the corp wallet. But I can tell you that this just a minor setback. Its true that I trusted him when I shouldn't have as well as having knowledge of his shady dealings in the past, which I chose to overlook due to his abilities in New Eden.
But what was he really trying to accomplish? (Besides as branding himself a traitor, thief and turncoat.) Did he think we would just fall apart and scatter into the cosmic wind? That you would never hear from us again? What he did was bring us together and stronger then ever. What his one tract mind wasn't able to comprehend is that Tritan Industries has evolved from a Dust corporation, to a gaming community which has been expanded to many game of may genres. We offer more than just a single game as well as build friendships, in which I account you all as. In my opinion what he did this early on in the game was premature. He should of waited. Did more of a long con which is what New Eden is famed for. Not to smart if you ask me.
Tritan will always exist. What they did is give us some great PR and have given us a chance to rise up from the proverbial ashes which I assure we will.
He took a pathetic amount of isk that we can make in an hour and a name.

Damn man, that sucks. He tried to lead a coup against our CEO months and months ago and ended up getting kicked for it. Didn't think he'd go that far though. Ouch |

This is hilarious. I love the spin too. He is making it look like he did something crazy by stealing so much money. Now you guys are on trying to make it look like he didnt do nearly as much as he did. Trying to make your PR look good for this loss.
OH and where is the Dustblog on this??? The first actual well known corp espionage and embezzlement and nothing from them so far......but man they were on the mark when they called a corp battle theft on a massive scale (20 mill). LOL |

May I hope this will inspire your corporation to start a counter intel program or at least a security policy.
I keep warning people, they do not heed the shark infested waters.
As for reaction, good job admitting it happened, further good job on restating your resolve to build and grow past this set back and lauding the theif in the most proper way, he should have waited I would have agreed. |

Wow, I think this is the worst attempt in the whole of New Eden to crush a corp. Glad to see that it hasn't affected you in the slightest and you are already bouncing back. You guys and great and keep up the work you do. Remember you aren't alone, if you need anything (which I sincerely doubt) then give TCD a shout, always there for the LRA. |

The best part is, in his weak attempt to "vanquish" us, he has effectively reunited the community under the Tritan flag. So far, everyone has shown up in force on our website to show support. We have a great community and I am proud to be a part of it. Stay tuned for the rise of a better, stronger, more united Tritan.
Like I said earlier, I P*ss 500 million isk, all he took was a name and our current spot on the Dust leaderboard (which is meaningless). Plus he could have played the long-con and maybe done some real damage. But instead went for an immediate "Hey, look at me, look what I did, I'm great!" while failing to break us at all. Quite the opposite, in fact. |

Bumpage to show support for Jaw and all my fellow Tritans whats the old saying "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger." I admit its a setback and disappointing but its only going to ensure we all stick together and come back from this stronger than ever before.
Oh and about the guy who did this didn't know him myself but you have to wonder at his motives yes he has made a name for himself doing this to a big corp but now everyone knows him as a turncoat would you really want him in your corp even if you knew he was going to do this would you want a proven traitor in your midst. Second old saying of the day "A leopard doesn't change his spots." (Internet cookie to who gets the reference of the altered version "A leopard doesn't change his shorts.")
PS Was ment to be a small support post but I have a tendency to ramble had to force myself to limit it to two sayings only. |

No we did not get booted. Zion and the rest of the alliance are behind us and always will be. I couldn't have picked better guys to stand next to. |

Nothing like a little adversity to strengthen bonds and give a sense of shared experience. An attack which fails to destroy a Corp makes the memberGÇÖs commitment to the Corp that much stronger. It also shows everyone that your Corp has the strength to wether adversity and will not fall apart at the first bump in the road. I think in the long run this guy did you a favour. |

You migh want to start taking a log of thier usual play times (thus creating a window), and see if any these guys consistently mysteriously dissapears during thier normal playtime when a corp battle against a rival pops up....
but why should I be giving free advice on corp protection? |

It was a calculated risk, giving the Sham the reigns of T-I. He had a history of pirating and scamming in New Eden and we were warned. That being said, he did have an extensive knowledge of PvP and EVE, which we needed to tap into for our expansion efforts into the New Eden universe. It's not everyday a "day 1" EVE player offers to join and teach. To compromise on this gamble he was only given limited access to our website, so he doesn't even have secrets or anything "Classified". He made what amounts to a dent in the corp in New Eden and a scratch on Tritan Industries as a whole.
I assure you all, that this is not "spinning" a story. This is the truth. He stole what amounts to chump-change and he booted most people out of the corporation by somehow generating stock, despite there being none issued because the mechanic does not exist in DUST514, when a corp is formed within Dust.
Shamrock is driven by ego, as well as is his cohort, Exmaple Core (btw, they know each other and are close friends IRL). He will up-play his successes as if they were acts of god, when in fact he moved prematurely and hardly accomplished anything in the grand scheme. I leave you with a thought from Sun Tzu:
Subtle and insubstantial, the expert leaves no trace; divinely mysterious, he is inaudible. Thus he is master of his enemy's fate. |

Well if I was doing this gig (dont worry I am not in your corp) I would have thrown the guy away as a distraction while using the guy who expressed concerns over the other guy to get put into a security position at least after the dust settles. |

I hope rift is doing well! I remember the old days! Completely forgot he was in rift with us.
I agree it does suck, A bit of advice, corporations CEO's and directors should always know each others real identity's. Keeps people allot more honest.
Its allot harder to pull a "I will find you and kill you move" when people know where you live and who you are :P |

To large profiling groups, its a career ender.

I hear ya man, but looking to the far future of your corp, realize that people can change, and information is the best insurance policy you can probably have against this sort of thing. |

Tritan and its memebers are all still alive and well, as our leadership has posted, this attack has utterly failed in its attempt to break us apart. We are still in contact, stil playing Dust and other games together. All Shamrock and those others complicit in this act have done is shown their true nature for all to behold and paint a target on their own backs. So for a little bit you may not see our corp tag by our name, but we are still out there, still working as a team, still working with our alliance, but with renewed drive and focus.
So thanks Shamrock/VK whatever, your name will surely be forgotten, but we will always remember you as that dumbass who thought he could easily break our corp.
BTW also thanks to LRA corps and others for their support, see you guys on the battlefield. |
