Yesterday, April 27th, 2012

- a date which will live in infamy - Jita was suddenly and deliberately attacked by spaceship forces of the Coaltion

The Caldari was at peace with that nation and, at the solicitation of the CFC, was still in conversation with the government and its emperor The Mittani looking toward the maintenance of peace in empire.

Indeed, one hour after CFC air squadrons had commenced bombing in Jita, the CFC ambassador to the Caldari and his colleagues delivered to the Secretary of State a formal reply to a recent Caldari message. While this reply stated that it seemed useless to continue the existing diplomatic negotiations, it contained no threat or hint of war or armed attack.

It will be recorded that the distance of Jita from VFK makes it obvious that the attack was deliberately planned many days or even weeks ago. During the intervening time, the CFC government has deliberately sought to deceive the Caldari States by false statements and expressions of hope for continued peace.

The attack yesterday on Jita has caused severe damage to the empire pubbies and military forces. Very many carebears lives have been lost. In addition, Freighter class ships have been reported torpedoed on the gates of jita to surrounding systems.



The CFC has, therefore, undertaken a surprise offensive extending throughout the Jita area. The facts of yesterday speak for themselves. The people of the High sec have already formed their opinions and well understand the implications to the very life and safety of our nation.

Always will we remember the character of the onslaught against us.

No matter how long it may take us to overcome this premeditated invasion, the Empire pubby people in their righteous might will win through to absolute victory.

I believe I interpret the will of the Congress and of the people when I assert that we will not only defend ourselves to the uttermost, but will make very certain that this form of treachery shall never endanger us again.

Hostilities exist. There is no blinking at the fact that our people, our territory and our interests are in grave danger.

With confidence in our armed forces - with the unbounding determination of our people - we will gain the inevitable triumph - so help us God.

I ask that CCP declare that since the unprovoked and dastardly attack by the CFC on April 27th, 2012 that they ALL GET BANNED WAAAHHHAHA.

You can ask, doesn't mean that CCP has to do anything. As you were.

WoW holds your hand until end game, and gives you a cookie whether you win or lose. EVE not only takes your cookie, but laughs at you for bringing one in the first place...

Get banned for what? They are playing within the game mechanics and aren't doing anything outside of the rules.

I don't think anyone care mates, its only Jita, its not like you hit JIta, Amarr, Rens, Hek, and Doddie at the same time. Best to expect a Meh, from almost everyone and move along. Sure its a sand box game, but making tiny waves is not living in imfamy

Don't ask about Italics, just tilt your head.

They havent hit all the trade hubs, but to be fair, Jita sees more movement and activity than all other tradehubs in the game put together

EVE players must be much shorter than the average. That's my guess, due to the amount of stuff that flies right over so many heads.

Um, citizens of Empire space don't refer to themselves as 'empire pubbies' or 'Empire pubby people'. I have seen that terminology used a lot by members of specific Alliance's.

As for the roleplay aspect, yes the CFC did declare war on Jita. As such all CFC members should be branded as War Targets subject to attack by Caldari NPC Navy and Caldari Militia Forces. All CFC members should also have docking privileges in Caldari stations revoked.

wait a minute, the OP posted that on the 27th, yet he started off by saying: "yesterday, april27th" ?????

due to that technicality, your declaration of war against the slanty eyed goonswarm federation is null and void.

I sure hope so. Its been a ****-poor showing so far. I see goons in local and plenty at the gates and jita undock, and yet I saw three freighters and two orcas leave completely unmolested. Biggest thing I saw get ganked was a freaking Sigil.

Come on guys, pick up the ball or go home.

Wow they struck a day early, goons are military masterminds.

Hears how to plan you noobs


1. You are in an alliance of 20K plus made up of the collective of the CFC. Use them
2. First target gank an notable person in eve , ie. Cribba,daveram etc etc
3. Once the above objective is complete it should act last the signal for the horde of CFC to descend on ALL tread hubs and the surrounding 5 systems.
4. enjoy the QQ
5. Follow the above with flooding of market with all type's of ships and minerals, to undermine the speculators
6. Rince and repeat at your leisure

But seeing as you are lead by a moron the above BASIC strategy would be beyond you.
