edit: I give up editing! lol

-Post will be updated as more information regarding more facts/accuracy comes in..Anything false will soon be snuffed out and edited (so dont post made-up-stuff plz!)-

Every thing below is apparently true in accordance to the history of EVE after a few vets were chatting about it on ts once..Believe it or not but this is not a troll..

Here goes:
-Battlships were often fitted with cruiser weapons and tank as very few could afford or use bs sized weapons

-Jove ships have indeed been destroyed before, a 99.99% resists jove frig was once insta-popped and a jove hauler was once popped. (Update: Most likely untrue)

-The popped hauler had in the cargo hold a special type of mining laser: tech5! (Update: Name was "Tech 5 Nibelung mining laser") they had a blue tag with Tagart Trans-dimensional Industries ending up with the laser. (Update: No Hauler has ever popped, but given to a player via GM)

-A "jove representative" (ccp of course) contacted the corps that had said lasers and asked them to form up at a rally point to give them back for a reward, the reward was the first t2 bpo's (Mining laser II's) (Update: Apparently only one laser was dropped and one corp traded it to the GM..) 6 months before t2 bpo's were released! (Update: There was such a high demand for the first mining lasers that there was an apparent 10-month waiting list! CCP later introduced BPO's 1 by 1, such as when there was an event with a rogue jove general having a battle with other jove ships somewhere in the south, a miner II BPO was going to be dropped, in this event Tyrell corp found the Miner II BPO. After whines from the player base about this systems unfair design, the t2 BPO lottery was soon implemented).


-(most awesome) A pilot was jumping from system to system once when he was magically pulled out of jumping (theres an eve chronicle similar to this).
He was dropped into a station where everything cost 100isk (like sisi) and required no skills.
The pilot attained a jove mothership (serious!) it was that alliances flagship until the ship was 'commandeered' (taken back). (Update: This possibly inaccurate, may have been a jove bs rather than a jove mothership..) (Update: This is likely a VERY very mutated account of the guy who found he could change his cloning station to a system in jove space and then had a friend kill him. Once there he proceeded to buy an Eidolon (jovian battleship) but didnt have the skills to fly it.)


-(most funny) In the days before rr-ing a player flagged by concord was illegal, one pilot (Update: Name was Zombies) camped a busy stargate in yulai and started off with 17+ bs's rr'ing him while (Update: This possibly incorrect and may have been from 99.99% resists to tank before stacking penalties applied..)he blew up concord and every ship that went past!
CCP cld not stop this as it was well within game mechanics, all they cld do was pile on the concord..The aggressing pilot called for more and more rr untill something AWESOME happened..A message popped up to the fleet saying something along the lines of "This is what happens when you exploit CCP's game" (not sure on excact wording) and the ENTIRE 150 odd man fleet was picked up and dropped 200 jumps away! Apparently only about 3 made it back..(Update: Four "Conchord generals" were soon implemented to end the concord-tanking naughty griefers)

Think what you will but this is not a troll. CCP were much more interactive with the player base back when EVE was small allowing such interaction..(/wishes he was a 2003 char!)
/me goes back to dreaming of t5 bs guns
