So, what's this about "The CODE" being No More?

We don't really care about the system. It's a convenient place to call home. You can usually find us at trade community goals. But it's the summer months, and people like to go on vacation.

For a group that doesn't care about the system, Code sure has put in a lot of effort into preventing Orrere Energy Corporation from resuming control of the system. And you personally have sure spent a lot of time on sentry duty at the airlock shooting at commanders as they come and go. I trade in the region and have seen the dramatic fall of Code's influence. I've heard from several commanders about Code commanders who've been seen around the system working the BGS. Sorry, but the evidence of Code's activity in the region appears to contradict your claim.
 
The thing to remember is; being inconsequential and being gone are two different things. The Code are just not gone.
 
Huh. Now I'm wondering if you're representative of the entire pro-piracy crowd.

Piracy so intense, it borders on perversion. It's all good because you talk to your victim and let them keep their little toy spaceship. The fact that submitting to your type robs them of all dignity never crosses their minds.

How it would not be better to die in a hail of honest multi-cannon fire, I cannot conceive.

Then the CODE aren't so bad. I'don't have my cohorts pirate Mahon players, we mugg them! :D We let them live most of the time though. We aren't malicious murderers after all.

It's rare we get the opportunity given the way the game is often exploited but enjoyable when it happens. Then we leave that player alone for a full 24 hour period. Any more is at the point where I would consider it griefing.

We're nice people, that at times, do some not so nice stuff in support of our cause.

Ignorant post. Just NO.

Once again, I'll explain it for the mentally challenged fidget spinning forum dads: We are not C.O.D.E. from EvE. We started in THIS game as 'The Code'; named after a 'Code of Pirates' that actually started as an idea thread on THESE forums.

So, enjoy being wrong.

Edit: here is the original thread:

I enjoy being proven wrong - but when one has to resort to name calling... well, it speaks volumes about the mental capacity of the speaker.

I also see nothing posted from you in that original thread, and you've a Join Date of 25/08/2015, and the last post in that thread was 03/12/2014, 7:55 PM, long before you came to the defense of what remains an otherwise irrelevant bunch of miscreants.

Mate, you show your true colors here. Please lose the attitude - you're not so great, intelligent and important as you might think.

To be fair, the post this was in response to was:

1. Wrong
2. Deliberately Insulting

Seems fair enough to me... What part of him describing the post as "ignorant" did you think made him appear to be trying to look "great, intelligent and important" ?? It looked more like he was, ya'know correcting an error.
 
"I'll explain it for the mentally challenged fidget spinning forum dads..."

LOL, I just thought that was a bit of colour ;-) Not unfair when the previous poster said, "then they came over here and quickly became irrelevant" :)

EDIT: And by the way... I'm a Dad... I'm on the forum... and my son did recently teach me a trick with his fidget spinner.. I'm yet not offended ;-)

You would be correct that I and many other very well known and even 'original' members of The Code did not post in that thread. In my case it's because I came into the game late (August 2015), and have only been part of the group since the beginning of 2016. That being said; what's your point?

Also, for a group that this forum seems to like to call 'irrelevant', you guys sure do love starting and posting threads about us.

To be fair I think it's been discussed a few times. I joined this forum in early 2015 (I bought the game on Jan 13th) & was aware of the C.O.D.E vs 'The Code' story quoted above.

It's just a cool, piratey kind of name. No need for conspiracies IMO.

The attitude is part and parcel for a pirate. We are evil. So no, I will not be losing it. And my only true color is BLACK.

Ethical pirates are a blessing from our lord The Flying Spaghetti Monster.

He boiled for our sins remember

Get a black sig. Its a thing now.
 
Congrats to those who have managed to turn the Code's declared "New Caribbean" into a sea of green.

"Old Worlds for the Alliance!"

I'm not even a CODE member but I will work to ensure that statement costs you. :D

Fellow Revolutionists.......Endeavor to make the Waxed Butts suffer! :)
 
Dude! I'm drinking a beer on the beach as well.

Difference is it's Tripple Dutch beer so vastly superiour to any colonial brew you're chugging :D [/fighting words]

I too have been on the beach today..... Where The prisoner was filmed. Sadly i got short straw and was designated driver :(

Well, to be fair to the Code - a good response to a BGS attack is to let it happen, and then tidy up when the aggressors move on.

And also to be fair, the Code have at their core the toughest and least supported gameplay in Elite.

PvP piracy?

It has so much resistance from players, it is so easy to avoid, it doesn't have much support from Frontier in terms of career and mechanisms, the Code and Kumo Crew were constantly hammered in BGS and PowerPlay. And yet PvP piracy was always a central tenet of Elite's development.

Although Majinvash (the voice of open) was irritating - he was a constant advocate for Open.
That's a good thing. Solo and PG should rightly be seen as somewhat shameful.

SDC push people out of Open for reasons that barely help the game. "Through the canopy Emergent Content to even the most junior of players". My black Asp.

The Code? - If you left Open because you wouldn't give up some cargo to the Code - well your ePeen shrivels like you've jumped in an ice bath.

Respek.

Aah, I played a special gig for some folk in Portmeirion years ago. They put me up at the hotel for the night, as it's a bloody long way from home. Remember the crystal decanters of spirits and fortified wines; nothing so vulgar as a minibar. And what a lovely bath...
