The loss of your floating flak wagon pales in comparison to this setup.

EvE Online,  I play it religiously.  I heard about that ship being destroyed.  It also was the first of it's kind to be destroyed.

This is a video of the ship being destroyed.  All the Red/Purple/Yellow/Green are people. from the looks of it it was a 125 man vs 125 man fleet battle.

I know nothing of the game, how long would one have to grind away to acquire a ship like that?

Over a year just to 'fly' it.  Probably over 3 years to make it a decent combat vessel + getting the 'isk' to buy it.

It probably wasn't by coincidence they happened to find it floating in space.  The assault on killing it probably took months to plan.  A few super carriers went down also which are pretty expensive too.

Character is like a tree and reputation like its shadow. The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing.

If you don't play the game it's hard to understand.  Just looks like a bunch of colorful lights running around. :P

One of my co-workers spent a year or so as a 'mole' in some corporation in that game and rose up the ranks to be one of the top executives and took it over and then led their fleet to destruction and took all of their ISK.  He received hundreds of death threats afterwards.
