Nothing more to it. We had just heard of how hard they are and how there is always a collateral loss of at least one Logi, and therefore the cascade of whoever he was capping, and whoever he was repping, so on and so forth like all things in Eve we wanted to see if we could do it with no losses. Mission accomplished we now know that moms are easier than some of the assault site spawns that we alpha off the field before they get anywhere close to optimal.




Sorry to say no evil overlord plot to take the Mom from every active incursion site. No masterminded plan to lure all the noobs in Empire into a fleet and make ISK from their labors. No we never thought we were the 'end all, be all' of the incursion community, and that everyone else would have to bow to our whim, due to some power given us by the self importance of our own minds. No for those people you need to look elsewhere, I would, but I have been banned from their channels and no longer have access to their inner circles. :)



We 'ISN' and anyone that X'ed up with a T2 gun fit or a Logi 5 fit decided to go and see how well we could take down the incredibly difficult MOM site. Yes we were amazed. not at the difficulty but at the fact that we came with to many ships, seems 65 was overkill, 16 Logi's was overkill could have been easily done with 10 less DPS and a full wing of only 10 logi's. But since the site pays for 70 we brought anyone that wanted to see it done. Then we split the loot with anyone that wanted a piece of it smiled at the accomplishment and moved on to the next Incursion, enjoying the new blink in the wallet and the new friends we made in the process.


Ideally we just wanted to see if it could be done.
In the end we found out that our efforts were construed as some kind of takeover, and of course the knee-jerk reaction from those that felt threatened was to grab as many rumors and innuendo as possible and start a smear campaign.

I guess I have rambled on long enough, But I would ask that you don't worry about ISN having some master plan but maybe look to find the reason that so many people want you to think we had a plan and why it bothered them enough to ban, smear, and ridicule, another group doing the same thing they do, only better.

I've heard some incursion runners aren't exactly hi-sec carebears but grinding money to sponsor their PvP activities. I hope they have healthy sense of humor and will laugh on this funny pic instead of turning ISN pilots into war targets.

we did, apparently you didn't run incursions at the time of interdictions or you're just plain ignorant, a little bit of search can enlighten you and save you from embarrassment next time.

What is this embarrassment that you speak of ? I saw 3 TVP FC's on grid while we did our first Kundulini site . One of them even tried to ninjaloot the mothership >.< . I guess the ISK is runing low in your " Basi replacement fund " . There were no other activities from any other parties . So no - " You " did not " Try to do something " .

LOL, what the hell is TVP ?
You're under the impression that I run incursion or care about them, take a good look at my corp/alliance, then search eve-o forums or evenews24 or ... for "incursion interdictions". AFAIK, we're banned from every incursion channel since we did the blackbird fleets, but seems like you don't know about it either.

Why would I try to stop you from killing the MOM ? Griefing incursions make me warm and fuzzy inside :D

TBH the MOM site is easier then TCRC's ( especially pre-loaded ones ). Brick proved it can be finished with less then 30 pilots at the end ( although you get no payout P ). The biggest gamble is the Alpha from the Lirsautton F/B's on a logi. Toughest part is getting the numbers to run.
Well it is now... the Revenant used to warp out of the site then warp back in ( until it got stuck on a wreck once & became invincible as NPCs do when they warp unlike PCs) Even the warp out warp back in Revenant wasn't that bad it just added some more time ( & Tamas ) added to the fight.

Been in a very few under 50 pilot MOMs: they are a challenge but since ISN is stricter about fits they may have a easier time of doing them TBH.

Hope some day to see a 'Father' site with a Sansha Titan wrapping up the Sansha Incursions & then a new pirate ( Jove, Drone, w/e ) Incursion

Do you mean TVP when you say "every other incursion runner"? The mom belongs to every capsuleer, not just TVP FCs.

I have no problems. I'm neither trying to offend nor argue. I am simply curious whether you realize what you did.

Correction: I mean every other incursion runner who was doing the same incursion, of course. And I don't think MOM exclusively belongs to TVP either, it's just that you cut other people profits by killing it prematurely.

Trying to figure out this logic.
We asked for pilots to X up. We included anyone that wanted to fly in the fleet after we were sure the full quota of T2 gun pilots were in the fleet. TVP knew we were going for the Mom but their response was "Yeah right they never have the numbers"

Or to be more exact

Kamden Line > basically, whenever ISN starts talking about doing the Mom, they're full of ****.
Pro Engineer > guys just ignore what ISN are doing
PopplerRo > i doubt they'll do it

Followed by God complex comments like

Pro Engineer > do not join the ISN mom fleet
Comet Miner > dont join a fleet with a banned player like NGR
Comet Miner > if you join an ilegal MOM fleet with NGR you will be banned.
Tharkunn > who makes it illegal?
Kirra Xeldon > unsactioned by TVp/BTL/or TDF
Deithess > not approved by TVP/BTL or with formed by banned people
Kirra Xeldon > What makes anything ilegal? people back an authority that decided these things.

A momentary spot of reason

Kamden Line > If ISN wants to do the Mom.....they can.
Travis117 > pro engineer u still looking for guys?
Travis117 > once the mom is dead the incursion is done right?
Deithess > yes, they can

But then back to the God complex



Deithess > anybody who is flying in a illegal mom fleet will be banned from TVP/BTL/TDF
Cygnus Vanusk > if you don't like the way things work you can always right-click, close chat

Of course who can’t resist an opportunity to troll an entire community

Seems like the problem would have fixed itself here if the TVP Fc's alts were able to 'ninja loot' the drop. But, even in that they failed.

At this point all sense of order breaks down.

Now you can’t have a proper Autocracy without control of the media. In Eve this means disinformation and restrict knowledge.

Followed by widespread banning, thereby taking the ‘making up your own mind’ process out of the ‘decision making process’ If you were banned you were no longer welcome, if you were not banned, you were very welcome.

I can only assume they had a list at that point because I was banned.



I never cease to be amazed by the number of people that cry out 'Liberty and Democracy' followed in short order by 'grab that guy and shut him up'
