Showing Coalition Allegiances In-Game

I have always been fascinated with the politics of EVE, it's a major part of why I started to play, and it pains me to not see coalitions in the game as corporations and alliances are represented.

I searched the forums for a topic on this as I imagine this is a redundant post but I couldn't find one. I refuse to believe that this has not been brought up before. I'd like to know anything more about whether coalitions will ever be represented in-game or not. Can someone point me in the right direction? Please

Generally this isn't as good of an idea as you might want to believe. If you add in a feature like that it would give coalitions a tighter reign and that would mean less drama as people could identify more with there coalition then there alliance.

Overall it would just make Eve more boring.

People use coalitions luke how alliances are supposed to be used, this is because they use alliances like corps are supposed to be used.

If you don't follow the rules, neither will I.

You would have to declare a coalition first. Then probably maintain it for a fee, like alliances , and implement mechanics to allow structures for coalition use. Probably would need a holding alliance for it? And lotsa spies to milk that coalition wallet ^^
