Edit: Lost reception...

To say it's pathetic we're in an alliance, spread across several wormholes, is pathetic. It just confounds me why you would care so much to look down on it so intensely. It's very symptomatic of envy. *Cue grossly maniacal spergz of laughs and denials*

Where are the tears about Surely? They're much bigger, spread thinner, claim to have won wspace, pride themselves on being the new and more efficient Narwhals, and so on..

And as for your blue list. It was a misconception, much like our niche in blobbing, considering you're all now a part of an obscure blue web helping Chitsa realize some wspace vs nullsec dreams, which, I'm sure, there's some explanation to. It's funny how you're cool with blobbing there, bragging about 100 man fleets. Thanks for the invites, though.

I don't think there'll ever be an end to this so, srsly gais.. Done with this thread.

Rubicon expansion might just be stealth buff to whs, since ccp anounced that hi-sec pocos can now be owned by players like the other pocos,goons just posted they are going after all hi sec pocosLol so the only free pocos people will be able to find will be in wormholes.This could certainly increase the wh traffic and maybe even bring 0.0 alliances into whs(best case scenario).Smile

Yes, and I proclaim myself as King of w-space. But it does not work that way does it? I mean you just have to do simple math, for example there are 1829 Temperate Planets in Empire Space. Let say that half of those are in low sec systems, that means 914 Temperate Planets in High Sec. Even if goons are knocking down a Customs Office each hour in HS that means it will take them 38 days to knock down all Offices on just the Temperate Planets. And this is just straight up bashing, I am not even mentioning the fact that POCOs will have a 24 hour timer, that they would need to spend ISK and war dec various targets (this will also require coordination and administration), that there might be groups who will hit their POCOs in return or the fact that many of their pilots dont have sec status to tarry in high sec.

That is just way too much bother for a very negligible return. And if they go after Desert Planets, lol, there are 4825 of them in Empire Space. Good luck, have fun.

Very true. But its not like they are strangers to grinding structure hitpoint amarite?

seriously though I don't imagine they will go through with it as Gnaw pointed out it doesn't seem cost effective. And goons are anything but stupid.

I am not sure i can be classified as a John Q Wormholer but I will share my 2 cents regardless.

A central problem of WH space's issues is the nature of our PVP. armor t3 + guardian has basically forced it to come down to numbers. I am not saying there aren't exceptions, but the only real way to fight a armor t3 blob is a blob of similair, if not larger size. Tactics and fleet compositions went out the window, so now the only thing left is numbers. On paper deciding to downship and roam in a less shiny fleet works, but as soon as you run into someone using a armor t3 blob and you get raped it isnt fun anymore. When you stop caring about KB efficiency, and lossmails, and more about the good fight theyare more likely to happen.

Empathy towards other corps/alliances will go miles as well. The black and white " fight or get evicted" wont work, its not that simple. NOHO has rolled into us several times over the past couple weeks and I don't think weve fought them at all. Not because we dont want to, but because our TZs are offset enough that when they have a good fleet amped up and ready to go, i have a couple stragglers, and vice versa. Now I hope they havent classified us as carebears, but as many fo you have probably experienced it is like pulling teeth to gather a fleet to knowingly charge into a blob 3X your size, and no one is interested in suiciding a fleet so we can say " we fought you".


Q;Are the large entities who are still left dirty blobbers? Sometimes, blobbing is a natural development of eve IMO, corps grow. thats the way it works. Like mentioned previously im never going to tell my members they cant come to this fight, otherwise well be blobbing. In many cases I make an effort to even the odds, i downship my fleets, allow them an advantage, I make an effort to make it a "good fight". When you mindlessly just toss 30 t3s and 5 guys, thats dirty blobbing.

I am skipping most of the other ?s regarding joing or moving upwards as I dont think they apply to me.

Q. Final question is in all honesty, when you roll into a major group that you arent blue to. And you have sufficient numbers on, what are your honest thoughts? Do you turn tail and run, do you hope that they didnt see you, or do you get scouts out there and start doing the numbers game trying to see if you can bring a fight? My reaction when I roll into a major group ( we have no blues out in wh space) depends on who is around, and what time of day it is. If i have guys, and can reasonably expect to get some men together I am happy, and look forward to a fight. When its early morning/very late at night and its only me and a couple other insomniacs we usually just close it, not looking to waste either our, or their time.

You know I cant really say anything cause we almost never see you. But there have been a few times where we have just had to roll our eyes at TDSIN.

We should hang out some time. We can go to a planet, take a long stroll down to a POCO and then end the night in a hot orgy at the sun.
