Welcome to New Eden: I Hate it Here!
I'm going to be perfectly honest, I've spent much of the last few days in a drunken, hallucinatory stupor fighting giant rat people with cheese bullets and chasing a small, flying pink elephant. Then this guy has the gall to get uppity with me for punching his missus in the face. Sir, SIR! Calm down! Don't you realize you're married to a large rodent painted to look like a clown sir? I'm trying to save you here!
Imagine my surprise, then, when I finally wake up in the Grand Heights penthouse suite and load up a dozen feeders on the 86inch plasma wall viewer. Not surprise at randomly waking up in such a luxurious situation which I would never pay for myself. That happens on a weekly basis. No, suffice it to say, I was utterly stunned to discover.... NOTHING!
I know. And believe me, you couldn't be more shocked or upset than I was.
Nearly an hour ignoring the half-naked dark-skinned woman lounging on the balcony outside to realize that Concord is clearly having some serious internal issues. Fleeting messages from pilots across two dozen regions, utterly lost and disconnected from civilization not even able to get to stations for docking. News feeds and broadcasts simply... silent.
I went down across the street to find it wasn't just my own connections, it's everywhere. A familiar face I recognized as a ground mercenary cloned for the Molden Heath battles was harassing people on the street for any information at all. His combat team has a contract up but he hasn't been able to get in contact with them, the transport, or even anyone at the colony base he's supposed to be defending in several hours. For all he knows the fight is over and everyone is already dead.
I asked why he was so frantic on the matter. GÇ£I have to get the bonus, not to mention how it looks for our corp if we lose another defense contract.GÇ¥ Nothing concerning the people there on the ground. I suppose that's just not the concern of a mercenary.Nobody ever asks about the families of the workers of production facilities constantly under attack. No one ever asks who takes care of THEIR sons and daughters after the battle is fought.
Concord is silent on the matter. But, then again, they're currently silent on everything else as well. Occasional snippets break through, keeping feeders live streaming back in my hotel room. I'm still unable to piece together precisely what's happened but it's a universal occurrence affecting everything from interstellar communication to simple local network television broadcasts.
I'm completely in the dark from proper news sources much less my own connections here, and it's an eerie experience. At the same time, it's made me recognize how thoroughly caught up in the current ground acquisition and combat in Molden Heath I myself have become. I need a couple days to get myself sorted, much less the inevitable news crunch once connections and feeders get back up to full speed once more.Until that then, I'm going to have myself a brief moment of silence to ponder, contemplate, and fully appreciate just how much I Hate it Here.

Welcome to New Eden: I Hate it Here!
Well, STB has fallen. I'm a goddamn psychic!
Should I be proud of the fact that I'm a freaking clairvoyant? That I called it? Or simply disappointed in the logical and oh-so-predictable inevitability. Precisely as I stated previously, STB was simply incapable of handling themselves as a holding corporation and were constantly seeking outside aide from third parties in their tedious conflict with Negative Feedback.
Personal reports and individual journal entries have been made public during the past couple weeks of combat on STB's former home world but stink of emotional blackmail PR spin to incite region-wide agression against NF. Only recent documents have been released proving that STB have gone pacifist and simply refuse to fight their own battles. Unlikely that they've gone the previous route, corporations system-wide are refusing any STB uprisings within their own districts, much less a call to aide this once former PMC titan.
Rumor seems that former opponent EoN fielded for several STB battles though from the events as they unfolded it would seem they had no real goal in combating NF forces as they stormed Meildolf. Despite a moment of cease-fire between EoN and NF, there were no reports of AWOXING any STB defensive contracts but rather seems that the allied corporations of Teamplayers, Ill Omens, and SyNergy were merely looking for a bit of brief mercenary work between constant bouts with CRONOS.
The honest truth seems most if not all freelance mercenaries involved had no real interest in maintaining STB control and were only there for a quick paycheck on behalf of STB's rapidly dwindling resources. Get what you can out of them while you can because STB's song is rapidly coming to an end. Cue the closing title theme.
Speaking of EoN, after the silent lockdown by Concord, they came out of the darkness teeth bared and guns a-blazin' so to speak. It would seem that a few days of silent meditation, rather than quell their rage, only let EoN build it up into a more focused hostility and combative aggression, forcing CRONOS almost entirely out of their home constellation of Tartatven as well as taking control of several CRONOS districts throughout the constellations of Fittikan and Almur.
With assets very slowly being depleated, the major players of CRONOS continue to slowly whittle away at their subsidiary company holdings with Seraphim Initiative taking control of all former Auxiliary districts and What the French leaving only a small core on Sakulda VI to allied Maphia Clan Corporation.
Now pinned between two alliances who seem to have no focus left but to clamp down on CRONOS, they have begun their own bit of a PR pitty campaign attempting to garner recognition to what is occuring from elements to the east. The only fault herein is that anyone taking notice will recognize CRONOS's fading power as they fail to counterassault EoN's intrusions.
Meanwhile, to the east, ROFL and ZION maintain strong hostilities as the clearly stronger element of the Unclaimed. also begins losing territory to both ROFL and third party elements such as the Vacuum Cleaners LLC who proved themselves a strong opponent in corporation skirmishes prior to the Molden Heath land grab.
Beyond their capacity to tread into ZION territory it seems ROFL still struggles with smaller and more organized alliances and corporations as Hellstorm not only maintains its hold on former PFBH land in Kadlina but pushes back against Kill-Em-Quick by hijacking a district on Egbinger.
KEQ seem to be struggling to maintain hold over more than a couple districts and one has to wonder whether their powerhouse alliance members will enact a total control policy or are simply too caught up in their own conflicts against constant engagements with numerous hostile corporations to even notice, much less offer aide and support.
It's going to be an interesting couple days ahead of us, that's for certain. Especially with labor contracting demands permitting district facility adjustments immediately under new management once hostilities end and a new boss sits in the room upstairs.
Just be careful the beuracracy doesn't screw you guys forcing 48hour double shifts on the new guy's watch or you'll be crying louder than I do when I'm violently awoken by another hooker OD'ing on pink&green in the bathroom, I Hate it Here.

Welcome to New Eden: I Hate it Here!
Something has been brought to my attention and I really have no idea how I missed this. I'm really doubtful as to whether it should be shared to the rest of you cretins who are clearly paying even less attention than I am which is why I have to be here in the first place.
You all remember Dust University? Of course you do. Who doesn't know of these guys. The ground and field operations side of EvE University, Dust University is an organization of academics and tactical strategists who have gathered together to attempt to train and educate those newly introduced to the life of a mercenary in the chaotic and frightening world of the various ground PMCs of New Eden.
Everything from hardware to wetware, tactical and strategic training, field movements and commands as well as objective control, some of these guys are among the smartest minds to be found with their feet on the ground, and they exist with one goal, to better those who want to be involved on the planet-side field combat within New Eden in any way shape or form. Basically, they exist to show New Eden that we are better than ourselves. Or at least, they try. They don't care about race, creed, or religion. Political stance, sexual orientation, none of these things affect their opinion of any individual who walks through their doors seeking knowledge.
Following Concord's open land grab in Molden Heath they had intended to simply hold onto a small territory, with no interest in expansion what-so-ever, simply in order to test themselves and new corporations in one-off battles in Hedaleolfarber. Unfortunately, their rapidly grabbed territory was surrounded on all sides by Cronos which had no tolerance for any deviation over full alliance control.
This would be a grim tale enough, and had certain people known I'm sure that more would have charged to a call for aide, but it was all so sudden and Dust University was wiped almost instantly off the map by infiltration teams from a counter organization calling themselves GÇ£Grief UniversityGÇ¥ as well as tireless assaults by various members of CRONOS. I don't care to take sides but this was just low.
That would be the end of our story for Dust University, except for what was revealed to me earlier.
Okay, so it would seem that some time back, shortly following their conflict with Orion; while still combating invasions from CRONOS before turning around that situation and taking the fight to them; while still negotiating with Negative Feedback for what amounts to a highly tentative cease-fire as both parties cut apart the once mighty krakken that was CRONOS territory; while still struggling to define itself as a burgeoning alliance of region-wide declared GÇ£non-factorsGÇ¥, EoN, specifically G I A N T, gave territory away... To Dust University.
Ever hear of the word GÇ£MagnanimousGÇ¥? Yeah, it's basically this.
It warms the cockles of my heart and makes me feel butterflies in my stomache to investigate and find the truth of this information. Seriously, I'm genuinely lightheadded. I hear music. There's goddamn rainbows shooting around inside my penthouse as I attempt to write this. And no, this is not because of a small, half-empty tube of something metallic grey in appearance on the nightstand.
This is hardly news I suppose to anyone but myself which is probably a part of the shock to it, but it has extremely significant undertones and implications and has forced me to take a closer look at things in their neighborhood. |

As we all know, EoN's presumed GÇ£rag-tagGÇ¥ team of corporations and membership as a whole has truly banded together to become an intense and overwhelming combat force as they do more than just whittle, or even carve, but literally cleave massive chunks out of the beast known as CRONOS, taking over a dozen GÇô Look, I have to type that again because it just seems unreal GÇô OVER A DOZEN districts from CRONOS in the past week. They do fall oh-so hard don't they?
This alone has been an unmitigated disaster for their public image, for what they had of one, and CRONOS has attempted their best spin with many of their more active social trumpeters going softly into that good night and their official PR claiming they are withdrawing forces from unnecessary outposts and locking down core districts against the unmitigable storm which only they themselves have to blame for conjuring it's wrath.
Despite this, they show no interest in allowing free passage into their territory by removing and selling off clone supplies for some kind of reimbursement of their investment and emptying abandoned territory. Instead, they are forcing anyone assaulting to expend clones and resources just to show up to a battle with no one to fight and no pay to be made from combat. A coward's retreat and only more reason for enemies to assault them, if only for spite. This is not how to gain regional support.
Meanwhile one has to wonder what EoN and Negative Feedback intend to do with all this new territory but as we've already seen from NF, they're virtually giving land away to both smaller alliance elements as well as smaller corps if only to get more wildcards involved in the PMC conflicts in Molden Heath. While EoN hasn't officially declared anything, there are rumors that they hold the same intent for their newly aquired ground in Fittikan and Almur. At this point I have to wonder, if CRONOS doesn't want them anyway, why aren't they the ones setting up a garage sale for these districts? This is not how to make new allies, much less appease the enemies on all sides.
Oddly, there are some in EoN, including leader and SyNergy CEO Mavado, who have declared that their intent is not to crush CRONOS but to break them apart in an attempt to benefit them by opening up more competetive contracts between corporations who are currently allied within the CRONOS alliance and as such have no one to legitimately battle.
So now, I finally have to ask. EoN. What are you up to? Really? You utterly demolished one small alliance along side Negative Feedback, and then give land to Dust University after their untimely removal from Hedaleolfarber. You fight NF tooth and nail before simply sceding territory on Hrober to them from where they launch decimation on STB. Similarly, rumors and evidence shows you field for STB during their ground conflict with NF. Did you know what was going down? Insider information so you could just show up for a cut of the pie?
All this, of course, before returning to the business at hand concerning CRONOS with whom NF are now also engaged in conflict. While claiming CRONOS's primary issue is their overwhelming size and unmanageable territory, aside from all their corporations being labor locked to the same time synch leaving few if any to fight on reasonable schedules BUT themselves, you seem to have no issue just ripping and tearing your way through the beast to add to your own property.
What are you doing? Does the snake eat it's own tail? Must we become the monster to defeat it?
This is where it gets interesting for me because this is where I get to predict the future. Unlike NF, EoN seem to have no intention of moving from Tartatven. So, if they're not moving on, but also not intending on holding all that territory in Fittikan and Almur then I'd have to presume that they plan on either selling it at ridiculous prices to the larger corporations and alliances in the region; OR...
If their action of giving Dust University a home after their violent casting out by CRONOS is anything to gamble on, EoN likely plans on selling off all those districts virtually at cost, if not just giving them away, to any and every small-time PMC in existence and their brother with hopes of real profit coming from insurance agreements and protection contracts as well as rapidly increasing the wild-card factor within the region.
It would be nice to see some smaller alliances and corporations return after catching the boot from CRONOS, ROFL, Unclaimed, so many others, and even EoN themselves. Don't act like you're completely innocent here. I'd expect to see advertisements within the week declaring precisely this very thing if I'm right. Hopefully privately controlled land sales will be a better option than Concord's gold-rush model and will lead to higher variation and wider inclusion than Concord's original design.
A word to CRONOS leadership and PR, this IS how you get people to get on your side. Not by land-grabbing from weaker corps to force everyone but the biggest out of PMC involvement. Not by network broadcast chest-thumping and sabre rattling. Certainly not by sitting on 40% of the available territory and complaining how it's unfair that people are attacking you. And absolutely not by stomping all over a group of academics whose only goal is to teach and better people. Ever read Ray Bradbury? I'd suggest it but I also presume the former University libraries are far from in tact. Oh irony.
But what would I know? I'm a madman with a nice car and more guns than is legal for most small nations. I'm sure I'm getting my hopes up for someone fighting for the small dog only to have them dashed violently against a dirty bathroom mirror in some filthy underground club somewhere GÇô my hopes, not the small dog GÇô just to reinforce the feeling that I Hate it Here.

Plan to sell. Problem is finding ppl interested in PC at this point to practically give them away to dirt cheap. If u watched Almur ive already sold 2 of our districts and others will be sold if we can get the buyers
PS: ive never been one to publicly advertise anything so dont expect to see a firesale post, we contact ppl directly and have a convo with them rather than a forum post. Its a more personal approach rather than just reading words. |

Welcome to New Eden: I Hate it Here!
Oh how the mighty have fallen. Recent and region-shaking news is that a wide majority of veterans are considering retirement. Among them the former titan alliance CRONOS is barely a shadow of its former glory, if there was any to be had there to begin with.
Being assaulted on all sides, inside and out at this point, most of their allied PMCs have decided to pull up the tent stakes and call it quits until future opportunities and regions open for business. The question is how many spacers will be willing to hire these groups based on this kind of a commitment to holding territory for themselves much less a third party.
With CRONOS basically bowing down as an alliance whole, only Seraphim Initiative seem to be around for the long haul, grabbing up nearly fourty districts from allies abandoning camp. EoN has been on the warpath but are possibly losing steam in their endless assaults on CRONOS in their attempt to break them if not wipe them out entirely. On the other hand, with new districts falling to SyNergy, Ill Omens, and Teamplayers to the east, perhaps they're merely looking for a change of pace. And if their report claims are true then by GÇ£change of paceGÇ¥ I mean actually having someone show up to the fight.
Teamplayers have been selling themselves for district acquisition recently so their behavior may be explained there. For SyNergy I can only presume they intend this expansion only to find new corporations to deal with; perhaps seeking new allies, new enemies, or both.
As to Ill Omens, however, one word: Disappointment. But also a kind of maniacal, evil, hand-wringing laughter. This group has been preaching about CRONOS's over-expansion and the inability of their corporations, specifically SI and WTF, to actually maintain the large number of districts they claimed early on. Their original statements proved true as WTF was basically taken to the grindstone and worn down to a mere stub by constant assault contracts. Now holding 25 districts themeslves, however, one has to feel perhaps IO themselves have outreached their own capacity to manage so much territory.
The EoN alliance on average seems to be avoiding this issue with most corporations therein maintaining about half a dozen a piece, easily managable with their resources as they've shown thus far, with the exception of SyNergy who have already started giving away some former holdings as they probe into Eoldulf and Elfrard. Still, IO seems to be setting themselves up for the most ironic fall since the breakout of war between CRONOS and EoN and I for one can't wait. How comical it would be for a massive backlash by CRONOS to feed IO a bit of their own medicine though with so many bowing out it may take new upstarts or foes from other constellations to come in and take care of the excess weight this EoN core element has put on.
And the story of PMCs just calling it quits doesn't stop there. After a fatal blow on STB, Negative Feedback core force The Imperfects have decided there is little challenge left in the region of Molden Heath or anywhere else currently availble to ground mercs in New Eden for that matter.
Map changes recently have shown allied Nyain San spreading into Elfrard but also prove undeniably that the Imperfects have completely removed themselves from the map, if not from the equation as a whole. While few members are still offering their services as individual and even merc teams for hire, as a whole NF clearly have no desire for future involvement in investing their own resources into commanding and maintaining any central ground occupancy.
Out in ROFL territories one could say it's an absolute.... Hell-storm?
ROFL, has many individual mercs and even member corps suffering from the ennui. Pro Hic Immortalis, one of their strongest alliance members, has withdrawn from the alliance as a whole as ROFL districts fall left and right to the allied forces of the League of Infamy; Hellstorm, 0uter.Heaven, .187, Molon Labe, and Warravens, all across Molden Heath's eastern constellations.
Come on ROFL. GÇ£Dawgs. Where you at!?GÇ¥ Suffering heavy losses to Hellstorm following the upstart corporation's takeover of former Pink Fluffy Bounty Hunter territories, Southern Legion has been seen making a GÇ£tactical withdrawGÇ¥ as Hellstorm spread into more territory on Kadalina and virtually overrun Egbinger. All this on top of slowly expanding influence over former CRONOS holdings on Bosena with allies, Molon Labe and Warravens who have also hijacked ROFL districts as well. 0uter.Heaven quite literally came from nowhere but after a rapid showing have decided their best defense against ROFL was an all out on Osveteur, taking command of all but one remaining district on the planet.
One could imagine that ROFL are likewise tired of the monotony of district management except that this argument falls flat when considering they've been fighting constantly against new and different corporations and opponents since the land grab. Unlike CRONOS, ROFL does not seem to show any sign of going quietly into that good night but also seems to be doing little more than kicking and screaming while flailing about on the ground at the moment. |

As it stands, Elfrard could be where the action is in coming days. With districts held by five separate alliances, four on Aeditide VI alone and most of whom hate each other to their core, it's a pressure cooker waiting to burst, flinging shrapnel and death in all directions. Make it happen people! I'll just be standing behind this protective armor plate for no apparent reason. If it doesn't, I'll be even more disappointed in the lot of you than I already am, and that would be quite a feat.
CRONOS, non-SI, you're weak and falling to pieces, giving everything to your glorious leaders in hopes that they'll somehow save your reputation rather than slap you in a pair of black rubber boots and tell you how to march with arms and legs in synch. Harden the **** up.
EoN, you hypocrites. At least a few of you are acting as you've stated but your largest public voice is becoming its own worst enemy and it wont be long before IO falls and takes the rest of you, or at least your alliance reputation, down with it. Harden the **** up.
ROFL, show some backbone. Stand up and fight back. Losses are losses, but losing the psychological war to bad morale is instant death. Harden the **** up.
LoI... You guys came from the shadows and are stomping on everyone without pause. Spot on mates.
If I'm wrong someone please, please prove it to me because all I can do right now is shake my head and agonize over how much I Hate it Here.

Actually all of us are acting as stated. Oddelulf needs to be cleared out for planet fight club to work and it seems we are the only ones actually interested in doin the grunt work to remove SI to get this project goin as others are either busy/not in pc/cba to wake up for the timers. Altbrard is being handed off as we have already shown and since IO is handling most of the attacks there and dont wanna use clone packs if it can be avoided they are doin exactly what SyN did which was hold onto the districts to use clones to clear space then hand off
also as i stated, u should really inquire how many corps out there actually wanna do PC......cuz it hasnt actually been easy handing off districts even at a loss to us
u should really look at the bigger picture before assuming

I'm not saying we didnGÇÖt want to take over the universe and yea my bad but this is actually kind of fun just attacking anyone anywhere with no strategic reasoning and just basically saying f it to it all.

just wanting to have 16v16 organized battles where I can have 16 of my guys on 1 side vs an organized group on the other side is the reason I play this game.
and those battles are getting hard to find. everyone (almost) that we've played have enjoyed our matches, (aside from lag/drops/crap out of everyones control)
some get all into the district pi$$ing match who has more/where/bla bla.
im much more just for setting up matches and enjoying the upside of this game, and good competitive battles.
ROFL has provided some great matches and continues to do so. cronos did the same when we fought often, and of course the few times we've seen imps, even as part of another team, were simply epic matches, win or lose!
im sure soon enough we'll get to check out LoI corps and I have no doubt those will be some great matches as well!
and the fact both groups have a good amount of land we might both be able to keep the fun going for a while!!
just don't go losing sleep or getting down if someone actually loses a match, or a couple, etc.
just a game |

Welcome to New Eden: I Hate it Here!
They just continue to drop like flies, but unlike their annoying aerial insect counterparts, there is little in the way of repopulating maggots bursting from the incredible volume of fallen corpses as the full-scale alliance wars only continue to build the grand tragedy that is the drama of Molden Heath's ground command.
We've already seen strong and respectable corporations not simply fall, which can be satisfying to a degree, but withdraw completely from the fight. Though this may be positive news to some larger alliances moving into Molden Heath, it may be a dangerous sign of region stagnation and overall lowered quality and variation of combat opportunities.
Southern Legion makes their way from the field after a rather long bout of commanding the largest posting of ROFL territory but taking severe losses to League of Infamy, specifically Hellstorm, as controversey over tampered and sub-par conscious transfer and data-link biotic modules, causing stuttering conscious awareness and delayed sensory data acquisition, fly at Concord from Private Military Corporations all across New Eden but most vocally from the region of Molden Heath.
Several tin-foil hats have come to see this as an artificial method of controlling ground forces by Concord and space command while others feel it is merely a lack of quality control on the new technology upon which all ground forces are absolutely dependent.
Until such time as proper tech screening is developed and enforced, many PMCs are withdrawing from Molden Heath's land acquisition program. On top of many ground veterans retiring from the grand game of ground combat, shadow wars, and corporate or factional land acquisition; these not-so-new accusations continue to build on a conflict between PMC footsoldiers and the interstellar policing force that rules most from before they're born till well after they're dead and incinerated.
Though not plagued by the same difficulties as their allies in TSOLE, D3ath D3alers have similarly been irreverantly removed from their home by 0uter.Heaven who, now claiming 100% of Osveteur, hold title as the second largest land holding corp in the region's east, let alone their own LoI alliance.
With this new development, and LoI expanding at a rapid and unstable rate, one has to be curious about who their next target may be. Hellstorm has a history with Seraphim, who are still around, but so too do they, and many individual members throughout LoI, have history with numerous EoN corporations and mercenaries, though perhaps with a bit more mutual respect. With only these three left as the de facto superpowers of Molden Heath, it is unlike we'll see a retreat of the darkness that has engulfed the region any time soon.
On a brighter note, perhaps. EoN leadership have decided to come out publicly to announce the offerings of districts and property across Molden Heath, sans homefront Tartatven. They've apparently been seeking private buyers fom the start of their conquest of CRONOS; but, from the map we can clearly see they have not been entirely successful in this endeavour, finding few buyers interested in the high-stakes game of planetary district managment. Hopefully a more open garage sale of acquired lands will see them more successful in real estate sales.
Alongside this, their long-time foes CRONOS constituent Seraphim Initiative have made their own offering in an attempt at decent regional PR by offering Oddelulf districts to any smaller corporation willing to attack and put up a good fight for GÇ£a whileGÇ¥, win or lose. On top of this they appear to be offering amnesty to any corp capable of taking any districts from them on the planet. Though personally I'd be loath to trust anything from some of their smaller alliance members, I kind of want to believe when one of the big three; Grupo de Assalto Chacal, What the French, or SI, say anything positive for the regional community as a whole, though such events are rare.
The move from SI leadership comes in the wake of a revival of, GÇ£Planet Fight ClubGÇ¥, a concept designed by the leadership of EoN, Negative Feedback, and others but with which CRONOS had no interest in being involved nor freely giving up their original claims to Oddelulf.
SI denies bending to EoN, specifically SyNergy, leadership, but clearly they are aware that they still hold more than is feasible for their size to manage all at once at any given time and appear to be making some logistical decisions to maintain a strong presence in Molden Heath and perhaps gain new positive public image, connections, and perhaps even new allies.

The real point, if you're intelligent enough to keep up with all this, is get out there guys! Get on the field, do some work or buy your way in. Get involved. The entire PMC situation is slowly dissolving into an amalgam of monotony. It's definitely a terrifying place out there on the ground in Molden Heath, but it's also some of the best and most rewarding experience you're gonna get in your brief existence you ground fodder grunts. There's no shame in buying the things you want in life. Trust a man who knows from experience. Also, cheaper than so-called GÇ£realGÇ¥ relationships.
Our way of life as a whole depends on this. Concord and various interested space-side organizations, for their planetside plans for the future; you, for the demoralizing defeats and more importantly the glorious victories that actually matter to show you just how great it is to be alive and part of something; and me, to have something more to write about than the same three to four groups of people day in and day out bickering like a group of married couples who all booked their 40th anniversary at the same lounge on the same night.
As for the crowd in west Molden Heath, I'm sure all of these public announcements came by sheer philanthropic will towards various PMCs of New Eden out of the goodness of your hearts. I'd even bet it came in a vision with soaring angels and trumpets. No, that's my headlights and car-horn. Get out of the damn road, you nearly made me spill my Quafe! Just another item to add to the list of reasons why I Hate it Here.
Welcome to New Eden.

To my readers,
Someone's expecting an apology for the previous article being a bit on the late side... Okay, a lot on the late side. Good luck with getting one. Go suck a Leviathan's exhaust port.
Things have been happening in the world and beyond which have led to a revision of previous tactics in reference to maintaining my survival. I got A-No.1 to look out for here before the rest of you info-feed moochers.
It is with that in mind that I think it's time to go public and announce that I have been in contact and working with The Info Broker and team for the past couple weeks and for some bizarre reason they've decided to take on my pieces as a regular column.
While this comes with a few perks, some advanced event knowledge, data and rumor confirmation and/or correction, even the occasional politics behind some of it; it most importantly comes with a relaxing sense of not being dead as I keep flitting about between a hundred different battlefields and as many pleasure rooms. Also cars. Cars and money. Cars and money and lots of grenades.
Maintain a lifestyle centered around these things long enough and you're bound to **** of somebody somewhere, never mind telling most beings in the universe they're at best an unfortunate assemblage of genetic castoffs which somehow developed the capacity for speech and general feeble mindedness.
Anyway, I'll be keeping up with events on the ground via all my contacts, new and old, and doing what I do. I'll be available for taking statements and might even attempt some interviews at some point assuming corporation and alliance leaders and CEOs are able to manage and answer questions to a bald lunatic screaming at them while waving a gun in their face. I'm supposed to be fair and unbiased which means I'll just have to make sure to hate everyone equally, as if you didn't deserve it already.
I'm glad for the protection, and even more glad for the new job, because I could do for a move and a change of scenery. But don't imagine I'm thanking anyone but my own fortuitous brilliance.
'I Hate It Here' on the events of Molden Heath should be up at least once a week on the column's new home at DustReports.com but no hard promises to that schedule. Go read it. Or don't. Like I give a rat's ass. It's probably over your head anyway.
I Hate it Here.
Welcome to New Eden.

I like the jab at the end lol...
Looking at Sha's attempt at meta... what? You realize you can't push anyone's buttons as easy anymore, so now the former CEO is your buddy? |
