Being in 0.0 where the next alliance over (a big one) has a deal not to steamroll you as long as they can come in and murder your people now and then (you can shoot them too).

(yeah that didnt make sense for me either)

The intel channel is compromised (and the alliance knows it) but they broadcast all their intel on that channel anyways).

-.-

Is this NORMAL to expect from "big alliance life"? Cause Im being told it is and this seems just AMAZINGLY ******* STUPID to me

And, isn't sanity really just a one-trick pony anyway? I mean all you get is one trick, rational thinking, but when you're good and crazy, oooh, oooh, oooh, the sky is the limit.

It's how people keep from getting bored out in 0.0 these days. Perhaps when CCP revamps 0.0 sov/nerfs tech we'll see some more meaningful conflicts.

Keeping a neighboring alliance as a game reserve sounds like a great idea.

You asked me once, what was in Room 101. I told you that you knew the answer already. Everyone knows it. The thing that is in Room 101 is the worst thing in the world.

rule 1 of big alliance life. Anybody can be a spy.

rule 2 intel channels are not for intel, but only hostile warnings.

rule 3 a gf smaller gang warfare is better than a 23/7 station camp.

rule 4 cover your ass

To quote Lfod Shi

The ratting itself is PvE. Getting away with it is PvP.

Isn't that what we do?

It's the opposite of having a pet, this relationship is brutally honest about how abusive we are. Then again, it's just shooting ships and structures.

Sov Warfare sucks.

Having dudes next door who are neutral is much more fun. IMO, CCP needs to introduce some kind of regular structured PVP like the tournaments but on a bigger scale. There should be seasons and it should be broadcasted on our screens in CQ.

Oh, and brackets for skill points.

10 hour hero brackets would be awesome.

good one.. a corp is not an alliance....

  - remove the cloaked from local; free intel is the real problem, not  "afk" cloaking -

It is not ''amazingly stupid''. It is very smart. You will come to love your big alliance and its war with Eastasia.

So basically you have enemies you can fight all you want and they even promise never to invade you? Sounds like a sweet deal for me.

So you're complaining about living in a target rich environment?

Is this some Malkavian double-speak?
