Convince Me To Start Playing Again
Ok EVE players, my internet woes from a while ago *may* be solved. But I've stopping caring about the game, except for the sad yet interesting story of Sean Smith. Can anyone give me a compelling reason to play again?… -
CANCELED: Suicide-gank Contest (Blame CCP)
Sadly, I have to cancel today's suicide-gank because CCP's servers are so unstable I have been unable to stay logged in for more than ten minutes without a client disconnect. This seems to be happening to a number of… -
The Free ISK Party Has Closed
The faction warfare LP party is over, at least for those in the Minmatar militia: We have to wonder if it was the Goons keeping everything at Tier 3 or better. This is the only time I've seen the Minmatar militia at… -
Achievement Unlocked: Navigation LIKE A BOSS
A goal of mine since my early EVE days was to maximize my Navigation skills - excepting the Capital Ship / Jump skills which I don't use. That goal was realized this weekend. It's gratifying to know that any ship I fly… -
Write For Us
My Loot, Your Tears is now looking for user-submitted content. Send your story to my in game EVE Mail (Khalia Nestune). If we like it, we'll post it, with credit to you. Stories should fit the theme of MLYT, which is… -
Level 60 Griefer LFG
So now that things seem to be under control in my business, and I've been able to hire some part-time help, I have more time. More time means I can play Eve more regularly! I'm looking for a low/null sec PvP corp that… -
What's Going On?
Small update here. Crucible has gone out, but I've been clueless on it - I discovered Fallout 3 and have obsessively been playing for the last ... month? Nearly that long. My first-pass comments (since I've had to log… -
Incursions: The Two Minute Review
Hadn't tried Incursions at all, and being bored with what we've been doing, I thought I'd give it a run. All the info I got was from at http://incursionguide.wordpress.com/ and… -
Ninja Baiting: Your Mileage May Vary
Khalia made a post detailing why he thinks that Ninja Salvaging is Dying . I wanted to make a quick post to clarify my position. As the Gold Ammo scandal posts indicated, being Space-BFFs doesn't mean that Khalia and I… -
Failing Grade for Wormhole 101
If you're going to fly about in w-space in a scanning frigate, by god, cloak while you're scanning. I had time enough to scan down this Heron with combat probes, then pop and pod him. -
Another day, another confused bear.
So after being back in EVE for a couple weeks, mostly bearing it up for standing to access pretty locators all over the place, I finally decided that enough was enough, and I needed to do something other than mission. I… -
An Acceptable Resolution
I followed the results of the CSM Summit in Iceland as well as hitting the high points of the community response in my RSS reader. I would have kept blogging throughout the whole process, but on the first of the month I… -
Industry? You Carebear!
While the Incarna/NeX/MT event rages, I've been occupied with a new ISK generator for me, which involves moon goo production. One of the reasons I haven't departed from the game, stage left, is that I accepted a large… -
Pay2Win Scandal - Signs of Life
From the Dev Blog : The tone and demeanor of my blog on Friday did not correctly portray my emotions towards the community and player base at large. I love and respect EVE and its community on a level that's hard to… -
Potential Eve Alternative: Perpetuum?
Watch the video below and see if you don't find similarities to Eve Online. I created an account and created the in-game channel "Eve" for Eve refugees. Come join us. http://www.perpetuum-online.com/ Hey CCP Hilmar: You… -
CCP's Internal Memo

"Greed is Good" Pay2Win Scandal Update
After more than 24 hours of silence and 70+ pages of rage in the threadnaught related to CCP's goal to deliver Pay2Win microtransactions, CCP Pann has made a post in General Discussion asking that we bear with CCP while… -
Incarna News Roundup
It's been only two days since Incarna went live, but a lot has happened. Here's a summary of what's been going on. Vanity Item Prices Spark Outrage The Noble Exchange Store features six new cosmetic upgrades for… -
End of Eve?
It might be. At least for me. Leaked newsletter reveals that CCP intends to offer cash-for-performance advantage. Get in there and have a look. Several folks have mirrored the leaked file. I had my hopes up that it was… -
Reader Mail: Xanral
We at MyLootYourTears love content. We, by far, are not the only people who play as we do in EVE. There are many blogs, pilots, corps, even alliances who have some, if not many, of the ideas that we have. Sometimes,… -
Going The Distance: Myrmidon kill
Yup, I'll do pretty much anything for a crappy kill. No, it's not because I wanna pad my killboard with crap kills, but rather the principle... Someone got aggro, so the someone that aggro'd gets to die. Period. It… -
How To Choose A System For Ninja Salvage
This question has been asked frequently, so I made this tutorial. -
Carebear Psychology: Parental Abuse
A quick post. I've been noticing a recurring theme as I've continued in my griefing career: Smacktalk that includes implications that the griefer is the victim of parental abuse. Tonight I was salvaging from a carebear… -
Lazy play = rewarding play.
So I'm in Dodixie, and it's about midnight, I'm about to wrap it up, but decide to sit outside M20 in my UBAR buffer cyclone I had laying around. I undock, move to the side, stop ship, pop a can with a hunk of ammo in… -
In which Capt. is a moron.... again.
Everyone occasionally does something daft. Something so amazingly stupid you wonder how in hell you could have managed it. I'm not talking about failfits here or missioners shooting at me, or even orcas grabbing a can… -
I'll Be Back
.. but not for a while. I'm taking a indefinite break from Eve to purse other games and some real-life challenges. Fly dangerous! -
Playing the Spy – A guide to Corporate Theft in EVE
WARNING: Long Post. This post is about 6 pages long at 2200 words in Word, so… Use your judgment whether or not ya wanna read it. It’s intended to be a link-to guide for anyone asking me about corp infil. When I first… -
Why I Do Not Live In 0.0
Paul wrote a very nice post about things that matter, and I'm going to steal his format to talk about why I don't live in null-security space. You've Got A Friend In Me EVE is best played with other people, in a… -
Rothrizar learns Scamming 101, provides delicious tears
I've been away from the Jerk lifestyle for a while, trying some of the other things in EVE. One of the Ninja Alliance members, Meccros, had been making ISK from loan scams - which I had not tried - and I got the chance… -
Persistence Pays Off
I was checking my expired contracts on my alt, and I saw these: I just made 325m. Yeah. I love EVE, and the retarded people that hit accept without looking. :) -
I am an idiot. Rofl.
So I'm in a backwater system with two of my accounts missioning to improve my alt's crappy minmatar standing. I get the mission, The Right Hand of Zazmatazz. Okay, I know for a fact my drake needs help to tank this, so… -
Ganks, Persistance, and The Mega of Doom
So apparently, a couple members of JERKS are feeling a bit bearish recently, due to ganking missioners too much, and are doing things like Plexes and lowsec missions and whathaveyou. This is all well and good, and I… -
Ninja Schemes, 2for1's, and NinjaRaven's Almost Demise
So after the last PI patch (which I fiddled with, but ultimately left to rot on some planet somewhere in Vylade), the mission agents in hub systems now routinely send bears out to adjacent systems to kill more poor… -
And another heist.... Two is better than one?
Yep, it's been quiet 'round here, but we aren't dead by a longshot. Much of Jerks have been doing their own thing for the past little while, a few of us are into infiltration... So... Heist #2. Bit more successful. So I… -
Happy Orca
I saw this tonight and had to share. -
Wardecs and Mails
Hello again all. In lieu of not having many recent PvP posts, I give you one of my more recent projects, and its results. Basically, for this project, what I do, is go around a high sec system capable of supporting a… -
Mail Musings
So today I was out doing the usual - stealing people's stuff... Selling it... I came across a Dominix that had evidently just finished his mission. I noticed a little late that he was attempting to power to a can in… -
Can Flippy Goodness?
So... I'm not dead. Yep, just getting that out of ze way. Over the last few weeks I've been forced into a bit of a sabbatical from EVE due to school and such, but I'm back. :) So I decided to mix it up a bit, and do… -
We won't take it anymore!

Group Drake Gank -> Drake Downed.
Hello readers... My EVE name is Captain Charismatic. Recently, Paul extended the invitation for me to join Jerks. Of course, I jumped at the chance. :) Anyway, even with a couple wars going on, it's been pretty dull… -
2 Vigils vs 6 cruisers
Captain Charismatic over at Rifter Experiences has a good writeup of the hilarity we had with a local corporation in Ichoriya. Go read! Tears and humor abound. -
I'd rather be lucky than good
I was up early on a Saturday, hunting for mission runners to annoy and pew. A Hyperion pilot by the name of Sergey201 of Air Space [AIRSE] decides that enough is enough with my looting and opens fire. Off I go to get… -
Triton Dynamics' insurance claims: Abbadon, Dominix
In a new attempt to cut down my turn-around time when looking for juicy mission runners to exploit, I fitted a salvager and an afterburner on my Anathema. This lets me drop right onto a likely target and start salvaging… -
Stoned and flying a Raven: Meet obgyn kANOBI
EDIT: For your pleasure, video action of this kill. You can blame Charismatic for not locking on the Raven until the very end. :P It's 0800 UTC, which means Dodixie's population is down to 200, and finding any good… -
LLLokiz's Law: Assault Frigates do not fare well against Battleships
Getting toward the end of a slow night in Dodixie, I found a Raven pilot running a large Angel mission. It wasn't looking good, but I went in and grabbed some stuff. He fired after the last wreck was gone, but I went… -
So Long Transfixion, and Thanks for all the Fish
or how to infiltrate, rob, and demoralize a corp in less than two weeks Hello faithful readers! It’s been a while since I posted anything, but I’ve been busy merc’ing it up w/ the guys at Underworld Excavators (firmly… -
