the socratic files: socratic's fall

[AvatonTheWhite]

I've seen this terd in local smacking and ranting about his "high IQ" rofl. We call him Sir Derpalot in corp.

[SirBrittanicvs]

THIS is why you play EVE.

[0800149]

there is info about the socractic ban if you google 'VANDV SOCRATIC FORUM' thumbs up so everyone can see and laugh at him plz

[mrbigsingsblues]

Do any of you, who had so much fun with this, think that I should be banned from a game, for life, that I have helped to create??!! Tell CCP that they are too heavy handed! Lobby for the return of Socratic!!

[MorinBlain]

@mrbigsingsblues If this is really true then i feel sad for you, i really do. I doubt however that it had anything to do with the events in this video however. What was the reason you received a perma-ban?

[mrbigsingsblues]

I can confirm it! I am Socratic! I have been permanently banned by CCP!

[mrbigsingsblues]

OK, this was great, but now CCP has chosen to ban the Socratic account permanently! How do you all feel about that??!! Lobby to reinstate me!!

[Xenofarion]

@mrbigsingsblues Seriously? :D

Can anyone confirm that? How did that happen? :D

[unfairtrout]

@Xenofarion Socratic was banned for filing to many petitions.

[0800149]

@mrbigsingsblues details?

[unfairtrout]

@mrbigsingsblues filed a petition for it

[MorinBlain]

@unfairtrout I too filed a petition. I have since however added a comment that I no longer support my plea for mercy (as that was all I could do as the grounds for the ban seemed more than solid) based on socratics disappointing replies on the discussion on the Voices From The Void forum (google VandV forum socratic and you'll find it).

[unfairtrout]

@mrbigsingsblues also soc the petitioned I filed to get you back is currently in action.

[Xenofarion]

"mrbigsingsblues hat dich auf YouTube abonniert." Awwww.. ♥ :3

[mrbigsingsblues]

anyone who cannot spell "scenario" is an idiot! no more needs to be said!

[Anathema1984]

Socratic obviously has a severe Oedipus Complex and the only way he can distract himself from his thoughts about his mother is taking internet spaceships way too seriously.

[mrtwist1000]

My hat is off to you fine gentlemen!

Viva la IEEE!

[mrbigsingsblues]

teooo, the very fact that EVE is NOT JUST a PVP game is why it has lasted so long! There are many different paths. And people who don't seek to play the way you do are not stupid. They would be stupid if they didn't do whatever they wanted to do, and enjoyed.

[0800149]

Poor Socratic, hes such a dunce hahaha!

It's a bit sad he doesn't know it though

[BeforeTheStorm90]

This is brilliant. Glad to see you guys chose a target that definitely deserved it. And my alliance has encountered Socratic in low sec as well. Got some great lol worthy chats. He even mentioned that he was grinding sec. I'm not sure what his sec status was, but he was in low sec 2 months after the events of this video. Related? I can hope. :D

[Skalmatic]

I am a new EVE player and Socratic gave me 10mil isk and helped me with some of the SoE arcs.

I think that he's a pretty cool guy.

[KulhaviGuy]

@Skalmatic Just wait until your toon has some SP or you have a decent level of skill. When that happens, he'll start treating you like an incompitant piece of trash that should have been disposed of long ago.

[TheRacro]

socratic talks about himself near the end.

[TheRacro]

over 9999 people like becuase socratic died.

[mrbigsingsblues]

anyone who thinks this is "cool" "awesome" or "epic" is a sociopath and will end up in jail for life or on death row before they reach 30. This is the best test for mental illness ever devised. You will all be immediately placed on the terrorist watch list. Fools!

[teooo]

@mrbigsingsblues EVE is a game, a PVP game, if you get upset about what happens in it you're doing it wrong.

[NEO6874]

@mrbigsingsblues Personally, I think it's ~cool~, ~awesome~, and ~epic~. Mostly for the fact that YOU TRUSTED A PIRATE. Disney has done a rather good documentary series on piracy, perhaps you should watch it sometime to see where you went wrong.

@Zedrick et. al. -- brilliant plan to deal with someone causing you trouble

[bnewton81]

Dude it is near to impossible to read anything in this vid unless you pause it every few sec. This vid will take 45min to watch. But this is the best eve pvp vid ever!

[aeroprime]

CONCORDOKEN! :D

Ha! That was simply epic, man. Simply epic. :)

Everone who took part in this won many internets.

[TauZeoN]

That was Amazing!

[warmonger55]

Just check out his pilot stats on shadow cartels killboard, shows you exactly how well he got on in lowsec



[TheWillIamLee87]

who would have thought that such a genius plan would only serve to embolden this fools delusions of grandeur.... any ways kudos for you amazingly devious plan

[katushkin89]

He has a Chrysler PT Cruiser, he can't be in Mensa because that's a fucking stupid car to drive...

But seriously I couldn't tell at the start of the video if he was trolling or if he was actually stupid enough to think people playing internet spaceships would believe he was in Mensa =/

[bolpan]

PWNT

[capta1nher0]

Hehehehe, i followed the socratic files with much glee on Zedriks blog and to see the downfall is excellent. I've never spoken to him but from the various chatlogs and his general superior behaviour I can't think of anyone more deserving of this punishment. Apparently it would take him 24 hours to regain his sec status, I bet he is still in lowsec ^^. Long live the IEEE!

[M0U53B41T]

lolol

best Eve video ever!

[mrbigsingsblues]

You are all losers IRL! and you fail to realize that NONE of this would have been even possible without me! I am the STAR of this scenario, and the rest of you are all just leeches to my fame! Losers!

[Xenofarion]

@mrbigsingsblues

The STAR(let) is mad, I think :<

[Barua147]

@mrbigsingsblues

OMG that's too funny. You fail Socratic and you're too arrogant to see it.

[mrbigsingsblues]

anyone who celebrates the misfortune of others with such glee is an obvious sociopath and human defect.

[Xenofarion]

@mrbigsingsblues

So you even start trolling on YouTube now? heh.

MENSA PREVAIL!

[H8FilledVoid]

@mrbigsingsblues I celebrate this misfortune with glee...because the misfortunate in this scinario. Is a tool

[giuseppem2]

and he still sits around arnon talking shit. its pathetic, i've been playing 3 weeks and i say a few things that put is "intellect" to rest and he blocks me. He's just fucking retarded.

[nullx86]

I say we all get together and rape the shit out of him and his little possies.

[giuseppem2]

@nullx86 Loooooool, I JUST realized who posted this. Very nice Alexi.

[RoninKensei]

Heard about this through eve radio. My hat is off to you, good sirs. Absolutely awesome.

[Barua147]

Oh, I'm crying with tears of joy and laughter.

Welcome back, Zed.

[Tyke91]

Killed this guy's jaguar with a punisher and a newbie rifter, well done (I was wondering why his sec status was so damned low at the time)

best eve smackdown ever.

[borlorg]

epic

[MrShtiggity]

You are my God.

[Punishedhero]

I just killed this guy the other day, he's been bugging me in local. Calls me out, tells me to come kill his drake on a gate (he was hugging it) so I speed bumped him off the gate, we dual webbed and killed him, then got his pod.

I got a mail from him the next day telling me that he fell asleep right after he jumped into system, and that the kill should not count.

[TheSpartanJedi]

First off, excellent song choice /,,/

I had the pleasure of running into this guy on my first low-sec roam. Went out in a rifter under the guidance of Vuiko in a quick-fit frig, and popped his Jaguar and pod

This guy deserves every single shot!

[devil40000]

Now this is the sort of thing that should be on Eve is Real.. holy god, that was beautiful!

[blah6352]

ive killed him a total of 7 times and poded him a few as well. my in-game name is count vondega. im his nemmisis on battle clinic

[unfairtrout]

xeno its me coat :D

[MaisonianTGM]

Bumped into this guy in the Fua region, full of smack and crap. Chase him around and after obtaining a ream of solid gold chatlog he lets slip:

Maisonian > So why do you hang out in lowsec and have -8 sec then?

Socratic > I was scammed into losing my sec stat

Socratic > I am here grinding

tat tas > this guy is so retarded i bet he did get talked into it

Socratic > this retarded guy has the highest IQ in the known world, stupid f**k

And here I am watching this fine Scheme.

Bravo Gentlemen o7

[Xenofarion]

@MaisonianTGM

Haha, oh wow. And I somehow hoped he's at least smart enough to have learned a bit from all this.. :)

[devast8a64]

@Xenofarion

@MaisonianTGM

Here's some more of his rambling about him being so smart. Enjoy.

[02:38:20] Socratic > documented smarter than 1 in 1000

[KulhaviGuy]

@MaisonianTGM Yes yes, he's so smart he got his ass kicked out to 0.0 for what i'm told is about 2 months by a noob with some friends.

[longleaf0]

Bloody awesome :)

[Deizen]

Served! :P

[mrbigsingsblues]

Great music. Why you went to so much trouble I don't know. I will be here in another 7 years, and you will be gone.

[Sergeo333]

Love this sooo much! liked and favored.

[toucj04]

[GTRPrime]

That's what happens when you are a dick-lick

[commodore88]

He's still sitting around -5.4 last I checked. 24hrs my arse lollolololol

[Xenofarion]

@commodore88

I'm pretty sure you meant -9.4 ;)

[glasspanther]

Socratic > for all you asshole visitors to the system, have fun twiddling your thumbs

we took a wolfpack down to amod to say hi. he was ANGRY.

[Eihort]

That. Was. Epic.

[Shuffladk]

I jizzed.

[lusulpher]

This. Is. GLORIOUS!

[RamblinRichard]

Nice, that noob will probablly not even know how to rat that all back up XD.

[phaedrus67]

Absolutely fantastic!

[philm94]

"Your security status has been lowered"

[SAO430]

[zedrikcayne]

He's up to -9.6 so far, plexing and missioning in lowsec. Unfortunately another Gila seems to have been blown up. Battleclinic killmail id=13558887

[DesperateKoyot]

2 music...?

[Xenofarion]

@DesperateKoyot

1st: Ludwig van Beethoven - Symphony No. 5 in C minor | 2nd: Antonio Vivaldi - La primavera / spring | 3rd: Amon Amarth - War of the Gods

[orbenn]

lmao I saw that Socratic clown in local a couple weeks ago. What are the odds he biomasses after this?

[FOFTW]

I'm still alive and may even start logging in again :)

[bnewton81]

Utterly amazing!!! 

[FOFTW]

Kate Mosh checking in. Hands down this is the best Eve video I have ever seen. Seriously genius. I'm actually amazed and totally in awe of the execution/planning of this. Insane. I love it. Congrats.

[fireblade453]

@FOFTW OMG Kate Mosh lives? Haven't seen you since TBMC days.

[ReleeSquirrel]

wtg That guy was annoying as hell. XD

[superfunbad]

I found this video earlier, did some google-fu and read the socratic files in it's entirety. All I can do is clap slowly. Masterfully done. I haven't been to Arnon in forever, so I had no idea who this guy was.

[Bananakingatauerbach]

HHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA OH FUCK

[l33tpete]

Epic. I'll donate 50 million ISK ASAP. Keep it classy Morin. <3

[MatsudairaTakuma]

Fucking awesome dude, fucking awesome.

[RambunctiousRussians]

Priceless

Well conceived, perfectly executed, and yet not overly complex.

Thank you Morin for getting rid of the most annoying pilot on EVE

[Caldinea]

I have been following this story for a long time... thank you for putting the epic back into Eve

[Janitor989]

very nice... 

[zedrikcayne]

Railguns? A Single...75mm Gatling Rail....I wanted it to take a while.

[Guitar243]

Morin Blain, I am forever in your service.



[Tj0pper]

That was beautiful!

[Ausnonymous]

I love you all <3

[alexandrsiegen]

[glasspanther]

WELL DONE WELL DONE WOOT WOOT WOOT
