I consider ISD ezwal's ~warning~ kind of ironical, seeing as CCP once made a rather famous music video titled HTFU, so they are in fact promoting a if not toxic, then a not-so-serious community - anyways, that's not the point we're discussing here.

You guys should all switch to calmil. Period. More ISK, less tryhard, more winning. And we're paying you on your way out. If that's not a good deal, I don't know what is.

That would be hypocrisy, not irony.

Sorry, I'm not a native speaker. I'd use the word ironical in my language since it's not quite hypocrisy. You get my point.

hey, we went ahead and kicked it over to T4.

no real margin on error on that so wouldn't be surprised if we fall to T3 but in a few weeks we should be comfortably in T4


good luck getting to T2, champs

Also, I can that squids used way to many pirates to make sure they flipped the system. Funny how all the outside help that was required wasn't mentioned either.....oh wait....

Allow me to explain. You see, GalMil recognizes that we can't really match your farmer count and numbers, so we're not concerned about trying to control more systems than we can reasonable handle. Controlling a system requires significant presence across all time zones. So, we focus on systems with strategic value and pack them full of folks.

Ladistier was pretty much the culmination of the OMS / Heyd campaign, since it was the only system left out there. From a astrographic standpoint, holding that system doesn't help control the flow of folks through the warzone much.

We focus on what we can reasonably contest, hold the strategic systems we need, and wait. Ya'll will get bored and leave, and the warzone will reset again. Like XG has said, you haven't accomplished anything other farmer hordes haven't.

Don't care about being in Tier 2, it's not a goal of ours. Keeping you out of key systems is. Start taking those, and maybe we'll start to get worried.

Congrats on finally getting off your butts and bumping up to Tier 4 where you should have been a long time ago.

For folks that stated they were in this to get your wallets filled (via lp-isk) in order to get back to nullsec, you seem mighty concerned about crowing over this accomplishment. The current tier level was never doubted by anyone honestly appraising the huge numerical advantage you brought. I won't join the bandwagon of those wondering why you did not do it earlier. (oops I just did P). Honestly, congrats.Smile

But anyway start filling those wallets with level 4 missions. Just don't neglect the dino-turtles. I love the turtle heads in local. Big smile

Don't know why you want to get back to nullsec politics, bubbles, and tidi clusterfucks. But I wish you luck when you do get there. The blue donut certainly needs some shaking up. And maybe in addition to the financial resources, you will have learned some new skills that will help you stay there.

CCP, there are off buttons for ship explosions, missile effects, turret effects, etc. "Immersion" does not seem to be harmed by those. So, [u]please[/u] give us a persisting off button for the jump gate and autoscan visuals.

TL;DR of your posts:

Not winning fast enough, didn't want these systems anyways.

This is like fountain 2.0 but this time we're on the winning side.

We also didn't bring a huge numerical advantage, TEST is maybe 25% of total calmil. Calling that huge is massive exaggeration
