cloaky reds and reading blogs

Ok so anyone who knows anything about Ushra'Khan knows that they like they cloaky ships. Now I have no problem with cloaky ships or Ushra'Khan (I won’t call them UK as confuses too many thinking they all come from the United Kingdom which I live in lol) but I really don’t like ships that just cloak up and wait in sectors for days on end.
now to be honest its not Ushra'Khan that have been doing this the most in my area of Provi but one came in today that was Ushra'Khan and it has gotten my back up about the 24/7 cloak as I have faced a lot of them since the Dominion patch. When I see a red in local I get in a PvP ship. In fact if I see a red anywhere I can get to I get a PvP ship. This means I am in a PvP ship till they leave and coz they are just cloaked somewhere AFK I can’t get a fair fight out of them so I just waste my time waiting to see if I can kill them. I do give up and find PvP somewhere else mostly 9uy area. What really annoys me is when I come online with a mission to do something that isn’t PvP and I am faced with a red so I am forced to go somewhere else to PvP which I did not plan.
now PvP always comes 1st for me I don’t get a lot of kills but I do my fair share and I’m always in the top 10 killers in my alliance even if it is number 10.
So basically what I am saying is I wish these reds would just fly around abit more! I mean I don’t mind if the fly around attack every god dam ratter and miner in the system (to be honest I think it’s a good thing it reminds people we are in 0.0 not carebear land) I just want to see them active and doing things. what I really hate is knowing they are just AFK wasting my time (the time of their alt) and the time of my friends if they where active I problem would not be able to catch them still but at least I would be able to try... which I think makes the game a whole lot more fun.

Anyway that’s that rant over with

On the note of other people
In my efforts to find out more about the world of EVE I have been reading other blogs
I’ve read other blogs for a long time now such as, roc's ramblings (I do have I iphone and I do use capsuleer after all in fact funny story is I meet pyjama sam at fanfest which was really interesting), EVE online wormholes, Diary of a pod pilot, life in low sec and the others I have a bit of a back log on and need to catch up reading so I can’t hostily say I’ve gotten that far.
But as 0.0 is my world and I love the place 3 blogs and stood out for me...
A Mule in eve this blogger has been livening in 0.0 for some time and its fun to find read and learn from his experiences
Eve's weekend warrior who has just moved down to 0.0 it is most amusing to see how the move has going (joined up with Ushra'Khan :P so I hope I don’t see him AFK cloaking systems)
Rifter drifter who is just about to move down to 0.0 (joining up with -A- I believe)

so there are a lot of 0.0 bloggers but these all stand out as they are very good blogs and they are all around where I live :) which is always good
They are also all red to me LOL the life of someone who lives in CVA space I guess :P
But it is most amusing to see hed-gp talked about from another angle or anyone saying anything about the proviblob which I am sometimes a member of :)

Any rate that’s it with my current musing
All that is happening with me at the mo is I’m building up a bit of a buffer and I’m trying to be more active in PvP (means I move out of my +5 clone now and then).
Looking at buying my Proteus and Deimos still trying to work out the fit for both.
My Alt is still projessing with the skill I will soon have him in a Stealth Bomber and then a ratting battleship which will be so much fun!

So everything else out of the way
Enjoy the photos :D

Ok how not to update

Ok 1st off I have been updating
But I just never published my blogs lol
so you ever get that feeling when something keeps building up and you keep putting it off then next time you come back to it you will have to do even more work to make it right. Yer well that’s this blog post.
So all that has happened is that I’ve been writing down notes and then forgetting about them then added
The blog becomes larger and larger in till I get to now and I think maybe I should post this and post on a more regular basis. 
but now I think about it, my blogs are about me and my life in eve and if my delayed updating is me then it’s just right :P
So like iv done before I will just post it all out in a jumble  :P

Class 5 WH
Even the gas mining in a class 5 WH is deadly, 2 Battleships spawn in the gas belts and they eat you for tea.
I went in with my tanked dominix and a friend in a Hyperion remote reping me and they just melted me like butter I was only just able to get out. Now I won’t brag but my dominix tank is good but while I did last longer than my friend I could not have taken them on alone. Nor did we manage to break them even after warping out (yes my domi and his hype did get out) and coming back for more.
I can’t imagine what kind of loot you get from a BS that powerful I love to crack one open and scope up its goo :P
In the end we settled for a less rare gas site where we mined it bear and my friend took the gas to build stuff with.
I also have a little business deal going on with my friend where I will hopefully earning money off building Tech 3 ships with him
And once get the ships building :) I will get my own :D

Dominion hype
See the new Dominion trailer (was new when I took the notes lol)
Its fanatic
I recommend downloading it form eve online website and playing over and over again on big screen TV

Corp management
Way to much business reuting all new players
Never knew corp management could be so much work

Losing ships
arg iv lost 3 ships in a short amount of time!
1st one was my SB to a bomb that I was not able to outrun, while I was trying to protect a bunch of logistics ships reping a POS
2nd was an Eris from taking on an Arazu, never reile on falcon ECM support the falcon was not able to get a jam and pop I go.
3rd was a Myrmidon I lost to a bunch of war targets we were camping in ammar. I really did not expect the neut’s around the station to start helping them that was a stupid mistake it’s been to long since I fight in high sec wars.

Then new world
I mined in the new patch
I’ve not mined in ages! I can’t believe I enjoyed it some what
I can’t believe what CCP are allowing you to get away with huge rare rocks :D I love it lets watch the market crash 
oo lord
Last few days have been insane! (Which only adds to the fact iv not been updating)
My alliance is now a happy Sov owner which we are working on upgrading our system and getting our outpost up
In the mean time I’ve gone in to more business with a group of friends running WH’s and DED sites around provi and if you read the 1st bit up there about the sleeper battleships well let’s just say I played them a another visit.
I will keep training this gang up so soon we will be able to run class 4 WH as a team and make lots of dosh.


Funny thing how you can just start to fleet command all of a sudden
Lately people seem to expect me to FC fleets (small ones rangeing from 5 members to 20). It’s funny how it started I just join a fleet see there is no leadership and step up in till a better FC comes along... no one else steps up (I will always hand it over I got some good friends I trust very much to FC and always hand it over to them if they are about) and I end up leading a fleet around which is fun to say the least. Very scary at one point when I logged on and there were 50 members in the fleet all needing a leader and the current FC begging me to take over, Long story short there was a carrier under attack in the next system this fleet had formed I just got back from eating and bam I was being asked to take over while the carrier shields where failing. Trying to get a hold of the situation and of the fleet in less than 5 minutes and get the fleet to the fight and keep them alive overwhelmed me to be honest and I managed to do the age old mistake of not warping fleet and just warping myself to die next to the carrier that was under attack. I got my pod out and lucky for me and for that carrier pilot a new FC had stood up warped the fleet and started calling primaries (I had not realised I had warped myself and called only 1 which asperity did die according to my friend).
So good job I say and very hard work
Lot a keres and go no kill mails :P
From that point I made my mind up I got to learn more about FC’ing and started asking and taking notes so that I would not make the same mistakes.

So now I get to today
Basically this is all that has happened since I last updated I’m sure I missed a lot of fine detail
but at the moment my eve life is full of politics and management (still FC’ing)  

The new free ship CCP gave us is cool (I think it looks good too)
And charismas is soon and I want the snowball launchers to come back: D
I hope to keep updating a little less jumbled like this
time will tell

So you killed your CEO now what?

Ok so it really isn’t that bad

a tip to everyone who has the power to pay with POS guns DONT lock someone and then release the control of the guns back to the POS. We where testing the POS guns (as we never have done that) and he was outside dropping cans for me to blow up so for a joke i had the idea i would lock him then i released the control just to be on the safe side (not unlocking him 1st).
The POS fleet like shooting my CEO in his Crane (90Mil ship) was very funny when I noticed his ship pop and watched missiles fly past him.

He was not happy...
at least I did not pod him. :P

My little trip down to jita

Ok so iv taken a trip down to jita to buy 3 things:
an Arazu + fit
an Keres + fit
and 10 sisters core and combat probes

I somehow lost my other sisters core probes, I don’t know how but I’ve seem to left them in space ARG i hate losing things

But anyway lets talk about my new ships.
Both share the same roles (E-War and point). And both are in my opion very good ships i love them both

The Keres coz its small has the same damping power as the arazu, not really a huge target for any FC and it makes a good tackle with fast lock speeds.


and the Arazu has an amazing tackle, it can fit Cov ops cloak Which is a huge plus, moves fast (so does the Keres) and the damping is just as good.
only one problem i cant fly the Arazu yet with its full fit

Little big fleets
I got involved with some fleets going out of my little 2v area (I don’t know why I call it 2v pocket the constellation is in fact called H-KW4A). We killed a Falcon with an amazing de-cloak by one of the fleet interceptors (really good job). And hit down a Taranis while it was trying to burn back to the gate (which I love watching them slow down)

What was not funny is two neut’s died because someone had them set to personal red (i really hate it when things go messy).

Cant wait for Dominion!!!

All the stuff in the new expiation is well cool
mail system, new worlds (which i took a peak at in Fanfest and now on test sever), the sov system which will be a dream come true for our alliance, the new browser (iv always hated the Eve browser), fleet finder and formations anyway WOOO HOOOO and so much more (titan DD anyone :P)

I just keep sitting here wishing it was already here

Only last note is I want more capital ops (I want to use my capital ship more!)

Anyway i will leave you with some pics enjoy and Fly safer than me
