Good for PL.

Tears will be shed and pants will need to be changed all round.

So Chribba, Dotlan, and the first Alliance is PL. Don't you think maybe institutions like Eve University or RvB deserved this a little bit more?


You are somewhat correct. Both of these groups are on our list for spotlights, however, we felt that Pandemic Legion are worthy of a spotlight in their own right, especially around Alliance Tournament time in which they have an amazing track record.

Please note that Spotlights are a program we will continue for a very long time. Our aim is to capture histories from Fansites, major corporations and alliances, notable individuals, great video makers, EVE celebrities and much more.

Just because you have not seen a spotlight on a certian individual or group yet does not mean it is not in the works Smile

My only request would be that you end it when it should end. Don't let it go on like a show past its due, trumping up organizations or individuals well past their worth just to write about something.

Clearly -A- deserves the spotlight instead for inventing mad posting and rambling about green killboards and battleclinic stats.

Pandemic Legion. We all heard the hype. Before I'd even sussed 0.0 was occupied,
I had heard the hype.

Well.. it's all true, PL are as focused and deadly an enemy as you could wish for,
three years on we have fought many times and I can assure you they really are as
dangerous as the stories claimed.

Well earned spotlight.

What has PL created, that has lasting impact, especially a lasting positive impact on the whole community and/or game?


From the top.

LRhacs
AFKposgeddons
Sniper Dreads (plus 5 regional dread fleets)
Gun Titans (Shamis was the first in the defense of Fountain to bring a combat fit titan on the field supported by carriers/dreads, soon picked up by IT)
Bombers (Gobbins was the first person to successfully bomb with 7 dudes in delve war 2, pick up by vee who was there)
ahacs (zealot and t3 variation)
Hellcats (we made popular and better fitting)
Firewall (Init ran the first firewall but we actually put it to good use with muninns/machs/abaddons)
Tengus (we were the first to show they are better drakes)
Slowcats
Shieldcats

I'm sure I can find a lot more, but the tl:dr of this is pretty much every 0.0 fleet comp you saw in the past 2 years was made popular/better from us.


Yeah, I'm sure they were the first ones to plate-up Abaddons and sniper-fit dreads, among all the other tactics/comps you list, that they were also the first to do...Christ.

You forgot to mention hacking the client so your pilot wouldn't show in local by the way, if memory serves.

More to the point, though:

How does this matter to the other 60-odd per cent of the player base who couldn't give two ***** about sov nullsec, and wants nothing to do with the grating ego ****-parade out there?

Hate to **** on your finely-honed delusions of importance, love, but most of the community really doesn't care.

Next!




You've made quite a showing in this thread for someone who doesn't care

So your best insult is that we didn't finish #1 in a tournament after doing it consecutively three times in the past?

I'm impressed.

This thread has been made, to celebrate an Eve community that has raised the bar for everyone in their history,
yet it gets trolled by some alliances with no history or impact, and doubtless little future. Very very sad.

I for one again celebrate again a galant antagonist, and a dangerous bunch of loons.
