If only James 315 was here, he could sort out this dispute.

Speaking of, when Test loses all their sov, will they embrace the saviour of high sec? For their sake, I hope they do.

*edit* For those in Test rusty on the rules of high sec, please visit www.minerbumping.com


Hopefully, you don't need James to speak for you.

I didn't know you were aligned with those guys.

I'm just against all the free adverts.

It really degrades the quality of this prestigious forum.

And this shows why I like how Blizzard setup WoW, where no matter how popular a player is or a website can be, it doesn't influence the game itself (they have a peculiar view about players, and probably due to this new Facebook age).

Why this is even allowed is puzzling, but can say it will offer more problems and headaches, and probably resemble the French Revolution and it's aftermath.

Never ever let the mob rule, it's suicide.

It's called "the sandbox". We like it that way.

Also, you've never been on SA's claimed WoW servers, have you?

I've never seen so my arrogance and white privilege displayed in one post. "mob rule is bad" are you kidding me? So you hate Democracy? Woww..... You are clearly a racist, sexist bigot at the least.

Listen, Reddit is the most important site on the internet, most innovation and humor comes from there precisly for one reason. Mob rule. Now check whatever issues your having and open your eyes. CCP would do well to open a Reddit page and make all their dicisions based on upboats XD lel, pardon my joke but you get the idea.

What happened to the whole insufferable "trillions of HP to grind through", boycotting sov warfare until CCP fixed it, and that anybody who wanted to do sov warfare was insane?

CCP fix sov warfare with Odyssey?

I don't like big alliances in general, but I like them a lot better when they're actually fighting each other instead of naping all of nullsec while their overlords rmt.

I don't understand the comments saying that goons are bad because they are attacking test when they are weak. I might be playing another game and might be crazy, but shouldn't you only go to war when you have an advantage? shouldn't you always pick the right moment to strike? This is eve after all and fairness is not the name of the game. Glorious and arena like combat is left for tournaments and dueling, all other form of combat in eve is inherently unfair and one side will almost always have an advantage.

I am glad that finally alliances are actually fighting for an objective that is logical (if there is such a thing in an internet spaceship game), valuable isk and estate, and not fighting for the sake e-honor, holding sov because we are leet, or we dont like you and we are going to take your space. Ideally all wars and combat should be for a good reason, and that reason shouldn't "only" be gud fights. In a war where you have clear materialistic objectives you can easily weigh the cost benefit of such wars and hopefully have a bigger motivation to actually engage in them.

So thanks for CCP for making a small change (long overdue) that makes null more interesting. We might finally have a good war (please test dont fail cascade). Fingers crossed.

Alas Razor has not taken up the clarion call and headed to Fountain. Wonder why not. As to aiding Goons, some alliances should remember who was paramount in helping them reclaim their ancestral hunting grounds.

TEST solved the dilemma by very thoughtfully reducing the structure grind that the CFC faced. They did this by alienating every ally they had except the one that was about to failcascade and drop sov anyway.

You don't really like freedom, do you?

lol

Can't claim the realms, it's not EvE, nor does the game allow that type of monopoly. Can't block access to instances. Can't control the market. Can't control the resources.

Not even Dream Paragon or Method could, and they're the professionally sponsored WoW players who do the world firsts.

Even if you tried, Blizzard will break it, as that's not how WoW is played.

no, you log in and do the same quest every day when it resets, then you log out again until blizzard tell you they've made a new dungeon and you log in to find the new epic items all but mailed to you in a neatly wrapped package with a bow.

there's no reason to actually *play* the game, it's actually sad the state WoW has ended up in and it's unsurprising that it's apparently hemorrhaging customers and emailing every one it knows about "reduced price services" to try and claw people back.

Meanwhile, you can't P2W in WoW. Or control any territory even on PvP realms.

Deflated enough?

Ah, your idea of freedom is that people should be allowed to do whatever you approve of?

EDIT: And "anarchy" means "without a ruler". That seems an odd way to characterise your objection to player ruled gamespace. I guess the problem is that it's not being run the way you want it to be.


See that's the problem with freedom. You give it to people and they just start doing whatever they like.
