Mineral Stone Burglar

1:01 Eve time and he tosses more ore for me to take. It's now 1:04 Eve time. Once I can jettison another can I head over to his other character. I jettison a can and take 5522k m3 of ore. Sure enough he just keeps tossing ore into his can like a mindless robot. 1:08 Eve time and I head back to Cctvfive and see he's still unloading his ore for me to take. He makes a funny comment in local. Another reason why I enjoy this crew is because they do try and communicate in English. It's funny because obviously the translating program they're using doesn't do the best of jobs. He called me the best name I've heard yet. Mineral Stone Burglar. That sounds so damn elite. So much more refined than the usual name of, "low-life ore thieving bastard". At this point dinner is calling and I need to log out. So I make it seem like he has frightened me off and I log for an hour or so. Sure enough, he is still meandering and mining mindlessly making me move madly to make his minerals mine. Alliteration FTW!!! He had threatened to bring out a battleship but I had never seem him do that before. Most of these smaller contained crews usually call macro-911 and have an armed escort show up to help them. Usually the escort will gang with them and jettison cans for them to dump ore into, this way when I go to steal it, I get flagged to the combat pilot instead of the miner. So I keep an eye out in local. Sure enough, I spot a suspicious name. I warp back into the belt for more ore theivery and just as I guessed, there is zhaowen in a Kestrel with a nice lil 2.5 million bounty on him. Too bad we're in high sec. Though I am working on an alt who can I can sacrafice their sec status so they can pod the macroers in high sec and get their bounty as a lot of the combat pilots in the macro crews have bounties on them. I like to steal in small ships because it lulls them into a false sense of security and they still send out their big guns in battleships to combat a frig menace. As predicted zhaowen jettisons a can, and Ceandyall puts his ore in it and I steal it in an instant. zhaowen doesn't do anything for a few minutes, but he follows procedure and opens fire on my Punisher. I make short work of him of course. I keep flying around back and forth between the two belts pilfering their ore for a few more minutes. Just as I am warping out of one belt, zhaowen warps in with his Scorpion. They always seem to fly Caldari battleships for some reason. I warp out and head to the station to put my Dominix through it's first taste of combat. Granted the pilot is only about 45 days old, there's not a huge threat to me. Still I am excited anyways. I warp into the belt and land directly on top of him. I proceed to disrupt him and jam him up the wazoo. I launch my heavy drones and they get to work on him as does my array of nosferatu. After a short bit he is out of capacitor and no longer able to maintain his shield tank. His shields drop and he's halfway into armor when he finally is able to score a lock on me. He launches his drones and torpedoes at me, but it's all in vain. I make his beloved Scorpion go boom. The loot is so so. I also scored a fair bit of ore off of them as well. About 6.5 million worth to be exact. At this point I had to log off again to attend to things offline. So I log out for an hour or something. I log back and in sure enough he is still there! Amazing. Well not really I guess. I am used to seeing them do this. I gank their ore for a while and this time he doesn't convo at all. He just leaves the system after I steal another 2 million worth of ores. I was sad to see him go, but it allowed me to log off and write this story.
