It's all good, if scoring with the hot chick who already got gang banged by 100's of your friends is your thing, have at it.
Just don't complain when it smells bad and looks like a rotten taco.


Very serious post, was only expecting squid tears, but some qcats tears is a bonus!

Push has been going on for weeks (with some awesome action) and qcats CEO doesnt even know about it, kinda illustrates how sadly redundant they are.

Aww you are upset, being wrong about something as inconsequential as qcats leadership is understandable. Some great pilots, in a once great corp. Many of the active ones helping with the push, polesmokers right, lol.

If you dont like FW, then its probably time to leave. Hardly anyone would notice.

Why does Cosi purposely manage to find a way to annoy everyone regardless if its his own alliance mates or the enemy. That's true bitterness right there.

Pretty sure he called me and other members of his corp and alliance polesmockers. Kinda silly for someone that doesnt really play the game to still abuse people on the forums about it.

Alliance or no, elitism in a space submarine game is always fun to address.

What exactly does Gallente hope to get out of 100% warzone control? Is it simply just epeen rights that you spent half the day at the computer running a button? Or do you want fights? If it's the latter, I think there are other ways of getting fights rather than sitting on a button with a blob of other people and bullying an opponent who is nowhere near organized as you are.

Not putting them under pressure will not help them get better. Where were people like you when caldari dominated the entire warzone for 8 months?

Trying to say i called my corpmates names is quite low, even for you. Anyone can read my posts and see that's not at all what I was doing. I was calling you names. (and any other corp leader pushing this agenda)

Since when is it elitist to disagree with people doing silly things for their own selfish reasons?
Usually I get a chance to rant about blobs and people who are bad at pvp before I get called elitist. I feel cheated.

Also I love the alliance centric ramblings when you haven't even registered on our alliance forums (in either iteration) or participated in the alliance in any shape or form.

On the topic of my playtime;
I'm taking a bit of a break while the warzone gets all super blobby. 15k+ kills in 4.5 years earns me a bit of a holiday don't you think? Or am I slacking?

It's basically the inevitable conclusion of the push we started last summer, that was stalled when TEST entered CalMil last October. The Kronos changes just made it far easier for us to keep the rest of the WZ under control while we ground down the CalMil strongholds one by one.

My esteemed colleagues in the Gallente Militia learned a great deal from being on the receiving end of CalMil superior numbers. We can only hope that Templis CALSF, GHIOT, OMG, and other combat oriented Caldari Militia corporations can learn as quickly.

It will be interesting to see their inevitable counter assault.

We Gallente have a saying: "CCP created the Gallente Militia to train the Fighters..."

I'm not here to play peacemaker; I just had a question about something you wrote:

I agree that the occasional curbstomping is good for the soul. Scrubs, given the choice between teaching themselves to be better and doing nothing, thereby remaining scrubs, will almost always choose the latter. Scrubs who scrub along think their scrubbery is actually good with every instance of scrubbing it up going into the evidence locker of "why im actualy prety gud", which in fact only contains heaping amounts of scrub.

I can also see that corporation leadership has to organize content for its playerbase. It's true, QCATS hasn't really been playing a lot of Eve. Our small core of US TZ guys is online almost all the time, wrecking enemy bombers, fine-tuning un-plasma-able killing machines, and sending small green men to their doom.

Honestly, it's because we're having a blast playing these other games that we're not 'active'.

But I digress. I must have missed the mail about us helping out the squids by taking all their marbles, even though I see the value in the lesson. I just don't remember it being part of the stated goals.

Wasnt a goal, was just a counterpoint to an opinion that wasnt raised in the planning stages, just raised by some inactive dude who used to play eve in this thread.

Everyone joins the FW just to plex. I never cared for the winner, loser or the ISK income. I was here for the quick fights I could get without having to risk huge ships. My experience was complete crap in both factions. Around 99% of the players would warp away, cloak or burn away from me at 4k+ ms in bullshit fit. At one point, I was so desperate for a fight, I warped my Rifter at 0 on a DD and he bailed out(who the **** does that?).

So as I said above, the reward are way too good for how little it takes. No one wants to join the losing side and these said players are only here for the ISK. They need to change the mentality from "join FW to afk farm billions" to "join FW for PVP regardless of the rewards". It can only be done by nerfing the rewards to the ground or giving lot of LPs for killing a FW target.

Until then, I'd rather just fly in nullsec, it's much easier to get a fight.

I have removed some rule breaking posts and those quoting them. As always I let some edge cases stay.
Please people, keep it on topic and above all civil!

The Rules:
3. Ranting is prohibited.

A rant is a post that is often filled with angry and counterproductive comments. A free exchange of ideas is essential to building a strong sense of community and is helpful in development of the game and community. Rants are disruptive, and incite flaming and trolling. Please post your thoughts in a concise and clear manner while avoiding going off on rambling tangents.

I agree with most of your post, except for the "no one wants to join the losing side" part. If the system allowed us to, I would have probably moved QCATS over to the Caldari militia sometime after Gallente captured every single system. Being on the losing side in FW is the most fun this game has to offer IMO (up there with wardeccing brave newbies when they lived in lowsec).

Having said that, I'm proud of what Gal mil has accomplished over the years (this isn't a pat on my back, the latter 3 years hasn't really involved me). We've held against a numerically superior force for many, many years and kept trucking even when things looked bleak.

Just thought I'd toss in some congrats before my sub runs out in this game in a few months and I probably quit for good.

PS: Robocraft is an amazing game for any eve bittervets like myself who really enjoyed the EFT/pvp side of this game. If only I could combine something as customizable as robocraft in a sandbox MMO like eve it'd be awesome. (Oh, and I'd ******* give plexs timer rollbacks so that fighting is actually more efficient for sov than running, but I'll resist filling this post with CCP raging).
