Everyone has a part to play in EVE Online. Even the lowly Junker has an important role in the grand scheme of things. Many consider the Junker life to be mundane or repetitive but sometimes a little action comes our way and keeps us on our toes.
The Junk Committee received an an anonymous tip that
Suroken (0.7) is plagued with careless litterbug mission runners and explorers who do not tidy up. Needless to say it was our duty to inspect and handle the cornucopia of wreckage left in this system. While on patrol
Junker c4binfever came across a large wreckage site in a dangerous Gurista 4/10 DED site. The Gurista pirates had set up a communications relay, protected by a large force to broadcast their intelligence. Capsuleers
KongaDrakos and
Obi-One Dumani were on hand to tackle the pirates, however did not remember to clean up after themselves.
Junker c4binfever followed the capsuleers to provide some helpful fire support and to remove the wrecks from space. For some unknown reason this was met with resistance from the capsuleers, who threatened Junker c4binfever by targeting him and launching drones in a show of force. This questionable action was ignored at first while junker duties continued, scooping up Metal Scraps from untagged containers. Unknown to Junker c4binfever, the capsuleer KongaDrakos was a ganker, and also infuriated that someone would clean up his mess. (Some people enjoy living in their own filth). Without so much as a warning, the evil KongaDrakos opened fire on Junker c4binfever who started evasive manoeuvres around the Guristas base. Our Junker hero returned fire on the foe and awaited the CONCORD backup, who arrived promptly and destroyed the hostile Vexor ship.

| the evil ganker KongaDrakos |
Capsuleer Obi-One Dumani could only watch in horror as his ganker friend KongaDrakos was torn apart by CONCORD fire and lost his ship. Meanwhile Junker c4binfever began cleaning up the mess, scooping the remains of the Vexor.
Despite appearances we Junkers are a humble bunch, and although sometimes we are attacked or hated it is our duty to keep space safe and clean for everyone. Junker c4binfever felt empathy towards the ganker, and began cleaning some of the surrounding wrecks in order perhaps give something back to the ganker. It was at this point where capsuleer Obi-One Dumani took it upon himself to avenge his fallen comrade, and launch heavy scourge missiles at our Junker's little frgate. Again taking evasive manoeuvres, the Junker sprung into action returning fire on the drake. Chipping away the massive battlecruiser shield tank. Truly a David and Goliath situation. As the drake began to fall, Obi-One Dumani begged for forgiveness and wished to be left alone. Junker c4binfever requested a small donation to The Junk Committee as penance but this was not received well.
[ 20:14:52 ] Obi-One Dumani > pls dont do it dude, i beg u
[ 20:15:02 ] c4binfever > why not, you shot me first :(
[ 20:15:25 ] c4binfever > if you would donate a modest amount of isk to The Junk Committee i'll stop fire and you can go free :-)
[ 20:15:54 ] Obi-One Dumani > fuck you
[ 20:15:58 ] c4binfever > oh dear
[ 20:16:01 ] c4binfever > this was the wrong answer, there is only one thing i can do

| tried to take advantage of the junker |
Obi-One Dumani thought he could shoot Junkers without consequence. And when caught he simply wanted to be set free.
Anytime Junker services are provided we like to remind people that shares or associate memberships can be bought, so that everyone can enjoy flying with the Junkers. Despite the hostility against us we offer the opportunity to

hate. If you are reading this Obi-One Dumani and KongaDrakos, it is not too late to get in touch and fly with us — you need only ask!
