In EVE Online , a player took revenge on his former tormentor with a four-year delay.
EVE Online is a sci-fi MMORPG with “Emergent Gameplay,” as it’s called today. The most exciting stories aren’t programmed by the developers, but created by the players themselves, crafting their own legends. The game writes its own history.
A user named Darvo recently shared a delightful story on Reddit under the motto “Revenge is a dish best served cold.”
In 2013, Darvo discovered the ultra-complex universe of EVE as a newcomer and announced it kindly in the in-game chat: “EVE beginner looking for other newbies to explore EVE together.”
The day will come when I find you and destroy you
A person with the mysteriously English-sounding name “kackpappe” contacted him. However, he was not a newbie but a scoundrel who had decided to ruin the start for as many beginners as possible in EVE Online. For months, the experienced player tyrannized the newcomers daily, until he lost interest and stopped. But the rookie Darvo vowed terrible revenge: “The day will come when I find you and take all your stuff away.”
And the day came. Darvo recounts that he then specialized in PvP over the years, started multiboxing to manage several accounts simultaneously, devoted hours and days to solo PvP, founded his own alliance, encountered enthusiastic players, and now competes with the big players.
Then he noticed that kackpappe was looking for a new corporation, which are the guilds in EVE Online. Darvo explained his plan to his friends. He changed his name in Teamspeak, convincing his old enemy to join their corp. Just as kackpappe felt secure, everyone descended upon him and destroyed him. The scoundrel had no idea what was happening to him.
Defeated player is embarrassed, wants to quit EVE
Darvo changed his name back and revealed himself as the once subjugated player. The defeated player murmured “Argh Fuck, Darvo Thellere” and then fell silent, humiliated, as he was thrown out of the corporation.
The thread where Darvo tells his story has received considerable support on Reddit.
This whole thing has consequences. The user with the mysterious name “kackpappe” is a German, meaning “kack-pappe,” and has reached out to Darvo. He can now accept his defeat and apologizes for his previous behavior.
One day later, kackpappe contacted again: Until now, he had been respected in the German community of EVE. Now everyone is talking about the story, and his reputation is completely ruined. Therefore, he will quit EVE.
The sci-fi hardcore MMORPG EVE Online is the simulation of a ruthless universe. On a single server, thousands of players go at each other in a constantly changi...
