The thing is Gevlon, YOU'RE the one getting scammed here. If you hadn't paid for a Marmite contract, some other alliance with a grudge would have and I bet you're paying more. You probably paid extra for special clauses like roving gangs and special attention in your contract. These aren't being complied with. I can tell you that Marmite isn't affecting us any more than they were before you came along.

A roving gang for Marmite is a camp in Niarja.

I exclude POCO intervention, because frankly, I don't know what they would have done without you. Most likely included it in their menu of standard services.

What I am seeing around Torinos and spread more generally around Hisec are your leaderless lemmings, trying to fulfil your promises of a glorious war... and failing.

Gevlon, a question: Did you write up a contract in your head and then approach Marmite, or did you approach them and they told you what they offer?

I think it's been pointed out that he sits back, cuts the check and takes credit for all the good you do around the universe. I think Marmite should have a surcharge for that kind of thing.

He's claimed credit for each and every kill scored against us since he started paying you.

Paying for kills means he had nothing to do with them or funding the war?

Gevlon have you considered allying with other entities to take down RvB their time is over anyway
I hope this war rages forever.

RvB are simply pets because instead of contesting for most POCOs you took the easy way out (failing to provide content for your members) and struck a deal with goons avoiding some nice pew and what could have been a thorn in the back of a large alliance.

it should be a complete non-shocker that an alliance founded on a forum should find forum posting in their regular schedule

the literal opposite of this is true, RvB have been smacking marmite around all over the place, and fleets where marmite / lemmings run away from the POCOs they spend hours reinforcing have been getting hit pretty hard by RvB as well

plenty of ~~content~~ even though im loathe to encourage you using the latest buzzword in an incorrect context

on reflection its possible the hidden message in your ramble, is that RvB wont be contesting POCOs because marmite/lemmings are unable to do so

this would be an astute observation, but you should try to put the clever observations front and centre in the future and maybe cut out the grrrrGOONs and PETS PETS nonsense

Oh yes, breaking news!

Lemmings spent an hour the other day reinforcing another POCO.

In what I would hope came as no surprise to the thread, no-one showed up to stop us saving it.

OP success, good guys win again.

Whoop

Me again.

I have recently learned, that if you want to make a point, that you need a graph. It's not enough for me to just say "But we saved every POCO you are the worst at doing your job", I need to show it in pictures.

Hence I made a pie chart of Jan/Feb 2014 charting our POCO save OPs.

We have no involvement in Marmite alliance/leadership decisions, etc., just a mutually beneficial arrangement.

Let's open the Marmite war history page and look up Northern Associates, which is another renter alliance like PBLRD. There was a war with them between 2013/09/27 and 2014/02/04 Then there is an ongoing war from 2014/02/13. What is between them? A week when you couldn't shoot Northern Associates in highsec.
Now let's check PBLRD and you see an ongoing, uninterrupted war since I started my Merc contract with Marmite 6 weeks ago.
If these JFs were in Northern Associates, you'd have 1/6 chance to just watch them float away.
Considering the value of the kills, the probability increase of them and the war costs, I know there is exactly one Goon in this thread who understands why am I happy.


On a different note: did you people notice that in the thread "RvB is a Goon scam" 90% of the posts are coming from Goons (and a certain Spacemonkey). This isn't the best way to eliminate the suspicion.
