The downfall of Minmatar Militia

Hmm. Well, those are words I did not expect from you. You'll have to forgive that I remain skeptical until I see something more than words, but it is... well, let's leave it at unexpected for now. I do not trust anyone easily, least of which those who have taken up arms against my people in the past.

I am afraid a very simple fact remains. You have forces attacking TLF forces, not in self defense or out of caution, but active piracy towards TLF forces. Unarmed non-combat vessels in a Matari tradehub do not pose a danger to any one of you. Other times, members of your alliance are seen cooperating with pirate/neutral forces to take down TLF combat vessels. All of these claims are fully independently verifiable in un-falsifiable registries.

There is also the fact that you attack our allies during a time when we have more than enough enemies to go around. At worst, this is flat out treason, at best it's a misallocation of resources to a point where it might as well be.

The former I can attribute pretty entirely towards the blooder psychopaths you rub shoulders with, which all on its own means no trust can be earned. The latter ensures the alliance leadership can't be trusted.

I'll grant you that I am very much biased against almost every one of you from the very beginning, but I'll contend I very much have reason for it, given that I've faced your guns more than once, aimed towards my people. So while this annoying sentimental little idiot part of me wishes your words held worth... they are simply weighed against a mountain of history and evidence that simply can not be ignored.

There is always the possibility I am wrong. Unfortunately, New Eden too often proves the cynic right. Either way, it does not matter. The RoE ensures I pose no threat to you so I couldn't still my mind and perform the battlechants in the Serial Peacemaker or Battlechanter whether I trusted you or not. The greatest threat you face from me are no more than words on a page. I won't discount the damage a pen can do, but it's hardly grievously wounding enough that you won't have ample time and ability to prove me wrong.

It'd be a refreshing change of pace.

A little trust goes a long way. The less you use, the further you'll go.

Aphoxema! You need to stop before you actually make the Militia sound like a viable option. Blink

Also, welcome home.

I've watched plenty of adult clanless try to fit in with us "trads" (*) and it does not seem to be an exactly easy process. It is not always made easier by the trads themselves being clueless about how different an experience a clan is to someone who has been raised without (guilty as charged, here). Good luck.

Else

(*) A fancy new word (well, at least for me) they use on Bleak Lands stations for someone born and raised in an established clan.

Militia is always a viable option for new people to train when the armies actually need more than the navies can provide.

What's this about Blooders contracted to the TLF and awoxing MinMil pilots? Am I reading that correctly?

Strike us like matches, 'cause everyone deserves the flames.

By volume alone, it does look like indiscriminate slaughter of Hek residents in unarmed vessels is the primary purpose of the alliance. Of course, it doesn't take many psychopaths in eggs to achieve that sort of thing, but I would have thought aiming them at enemies rather than our own would have been desirable.

It's by now an old and settled subject, though. CEOs and Executors have stated their views on it. No fucks given.

Except for yours apparently, by volume alone.

Oh, there's quite a few of us who find your indiscriminate slaughter of non-combatant vessels in Tribe space, and awoxing of TLF members to be quite distasteful. I was referring to your alliance's CEOs and Executor's opinions, which has been quite clearly stated in these threads to essentially amount to "no fucks given".

I know it's not particularly convenient when someone points out your treason in public, but that's just how it is. Of course, you guys haven't been attacking non-combat vessels in Tribe corps since... well, yesterday, so I'm sure it's just old news that somehow isn't relevant or something of that sort.

It's such a pity that a potentially useful alliance that could actually prove themselves to not be traitorous scum to the Tribes so willingly infect themselves with your kind of infestation. I could almost have believed the claims of Khushakor Clan if that wasn't the case.
