Wormholes

I'm assuming theres a bit more to it than simply round 2 as bitten has 2 dozen capitals in system.

Can you bring me some cookies and milk? They won't let me have any until I clean my POS :(

Some men just want to watch the world burn.

Confirming your corp doesn't want fights to happen.

From our point of view, Bitten. wouldn't have attacked Arctic Light POSes in the middle of the night if fights was really what they were after, so we assumed it's an eviction attempt. I'd rather secure future fights by stopping a single fight from happening, any day. You can "confirm" batphones were involved in this, but Arctic Light seems to do fine when they are on their own too.

"Does not know how to fight" - EVE Kill
"Can't handle anything themselves" - Transmission Lost KB

We've also never experienced Bitten taking a fair fight unless they have an edge we don't know about. If it's either putting a couple of Orcas through a hole, so whoever wants to fight them through their hole accidentally collapses themselves on their side - or the more recent 8-10 Bhaalgorns logged off/hidden until the other side commits to a fight. We expected a trap, Bitten's reputation pointed to them never taking such a fight outnumbered in people and resources, especially in someones home system.

Who takes ~15 capitals into someone's home system for a "fight"..?

zzzzzZZZzz

Have you seen the T-lost killmails? It would be embarrassing to lose to that.

So attempting to evict Hard Knocks, even though they fight, is ok. However, evicting Arctic Light is a huge no-no because they fight. The line seems a bit blurred at the moment.

Dear sir,

You do not decide what happens and where, you can merely attempt to influence the outcome.
Seriously, if someone fights, an eviction (even IF it was that) wont change a thing.
If anything, it helps keep someone on their toes.

In my personal opinion, "you lot" have all grown fat and lazy, and could use a good culling.
However, i have complete faith in our management, so even if our views differ, they lead, i follow.

OK...



Going in the right direction, but not there yet...

So to adjust the question above slightly: "Who takes X many capitals to a system where the locals are known to have greater than 2X capitals there?" You claim it's not people looking for a fight?



At the risk of divulging much coveted intel. They were trying to keep us out. We were trying to get in. We attacked when we got in.



Everyone is aware of how fights against large corporations or alliances go. Unless it's just us this happens to?

As the aggressor, you form up, and on a good day you have a subcap fleet of around 15-20 people, and a single capital if you want to go back out the way you came, 3 if you commit. As the defender you have an approximately similar subcap fleet, but you get 10+ caps. That's how it works right?

We know if we try and fight Arctic Light with a "wormholes worth" of ships, we're just going to get cap blobbed, we've done it before. So we attempt to level the playing field hoping our super secret tactics lack of pants will give us the advantage.

And we're FINE with that. If you want to cap blob, that's cool, that's your prerogative. But this seems to be a big bucket of tears because we TRIED TO FIGHT. I'm deeply sorry that your self imposed W-Space politics forced you to call in help from all angles because double our numbers wasn't enough.


Don't misunderstand me. Me and Jack have a long and friendly history. I'm not pointing a finger at him, I'm simply waving it in the general direction of his associates.

I can only imagine the W-Space Circle Jerk Channel.

Arctic Light> Guys, Bitten are here with half our numbers.
AHARM> Hmm, you might have to fight them, we'll get rolling to ensure the fight is as one sided as possible. With any luck you wont have to fight them at all!
Norcorp> HAI GAYS! WE LIVE IN A WORMHOLES
