A dark awesome moment of Manipulative Bastardry - Goonswarm disbanding BoB.Everything on both this and the funny list is made all the better because almost all events in this game are caused by the players. Gameplay/Player-GeneratedPerhaps the most awesome aspect of what EVE Online offers is the playing field that allows the boatload of entries below this sentence to happen. Monumental Theft doesn't even begin to describe it. TL DR: Sarpati fought his way into the heart of a Gallente Federation naval base and hijacked New Eden's equivalent of the Death Star. Against all odds, he succeeded, and then managed to make his way back to the Serpentis Prime system with his prize despite constant attacks from a horde of god-knows-how-many capsuleers who wanted the glory of killing him, which he later attributed to the (smaller) horde of capsuleers that decided they wanted to help him. Keep in mind that modern titans range from 13-18 kilometers long ( scale provided here ), and some fan-made examples of what true-scale Iapetan titans might look like.
