The good thing about eve is its predictability,

History repeats itself on here because alliance leaders always make the same mistakes

What do men with power crave?

More power

More power - leads to war

Humans do not learn from their mistakes

Very true.

But I do aspire to making my sperging to the next level. One day maybe.

Unfortunately until then, I'll have to be an amateur rather than a pro sperglord like yourself. Seems to be the one thing SMA are good at.

Lol, you wish you could have my stuff, you'd certainly not be crying about putting up a large citadel P

If I were ever going I'd probably do something spectacular with it before I went.

Proof enough that whatever time you were in SMA for was incredibly short and your exposure limited. MBC don't want the sov and even if they do want it they won't be able to keep it since fozziesov almost guarantees a loss for the defender in anything even resembling and even fight. And sure, maybe SMA won't survive, but the fun is in the trying. Anyone jumping ship now is simply proving they don't have what it takes to be an EVE player, let alone a wartime Imperium member.



Sure, whatever you say. The high-profile players who have left in the last 24 hours don't have what it takes to play EVE -- well- known players like Kyle and Ivory. /sarcasm

You know why they left, dude. Everyone knows why they all left. Trying to spin it as if they're the bad guys just makes you look really bad, yourself. In fact it looks downright trashy considering that all of them have gone out of their way to leave graciously and to not sell their former alliance out. You should have really stopped while you were ahead.

So anyway, I look forward to moving back to Fade on deployment. I already have one ship parked in O1Y! Maybe I'll run into you there, eh?

Whatever way you swing it, if you are leaving an alliance because times get tough and you suffer some losses, you don't have what it takes to be an EVE player. I'm not trying to spin it as anything other than what it is, you're the one trying to pretend that because some leaders left that the entire rest of the alliance is screwed. It very well may be we won't survive this as an alliance, but that's nowhere close to a given and there are still plenty of people that will fight to the end.

And honestly, if and when we move back to fade, I don't expect you to still be there. Your alliance really is a renamed BNI, and if you weren't blue to groups like NC and TEST, they'd rip you to pieces in seconds. I fully expect to be fighting one of them, not steamrolling you.

Jesus, you can almost taste the desperation. The further we advance (and not just militarily, I enjoyed my 1st northern "Mining/Ratting up indexes" op last night, I forgot how much guristas jamming sucks lol) they more delusional 'they' get (well, some of 'they', it seems the smarter "they's are abandoning ship already).

The 1st great war I fought in (when I was in Raiden and we helped destroy to original NC) 6-7 years ago wasn't NEARLY this damn fun.

Nope, first off the clusterfuck coalition doesn't exist. Secondly, I'm just stating it as it is. It's a well advertised view that following this war MBC are going to stop being blue to each other, at which point they have to realistically be able to hold space against their attackers, which they've shown they would be unable to do.

lol

I was on an op to coat hanger a CSAA night before last, and watched the intense and unbelievable spectacle of Imperium guys complaining about our blobbing in local.

Imperpium. The biggest blob in the history of EVE....

Complaining about blobbling.

From Imperium.....


......



Oddly, when I was in NC. and Goons (with hired PL help) forcibly ejected us from the exact same north that MBC is attacking now by using superior numbers, I fail to recall many CfC complaints about the dishonorable practice of blobbing.....

MBC would reform at the drop of a hat if CFC looked like moving back into the North.

We're not even blue to each other just following not shooting neuts whilst in CFC space (unless they aggress us first *cough* Spectre *cough*).

Also remember that CFC has pissed off pretty much all of these groups individually in their own way and we're not exactly suffering isk losses so even the IWI funding is irrelevant now (although it was definitely a necessary catalyst to get this started).

I've heard talk that Burn Deklein might become an annual thing because it's so much fun.

but what would I know, I'm just a salvager

A dynamic 0.0 certainly is better than the static and stagnant bloc the CFC is and the blocs before it were.

You me because some of us don't conform the propaganda on reddit and don't actually consider SMA dead yet? Alliances can lose quite a lot and not collapse you know. TEST lost basically everything, died on it's ass and yet now is back. If believing SMA is strong enough to survive hard times is considered denial by randoms on the forum, I'm OK with that.

Aside from his post not actually being representative of what I actually posted, for some reason you don't see the irony in a bunch of people who have complained about blobbing and blue doughnuts for several years using those exact same tactics now CCP have shifted the mechanics in their favour too? Strange that. By strange I of course mean completely predictable.

You appear to be confused. I think you need to face up to what the point of this war is.

For most groups involved, it's not to capture and hold your sov. It's simply to burn you all out of your sov.

Who will take the space in the wake of the war? Not the remnants of SMA, that's for sure, because SMA of all alliances absolutely can't hold sov on their own -- not without Goon intervention. This has been amply demonstrated. 1000 people online; 50 of them turn out for fleets. That's not going to work out for you. Roll

Who will take the space is anyone's guess. It will be interesting to watch.

The 'propaganda' on reddit...is leaked logs from your own alliance chat. We don't even need to make gifs anymore.

I agree, but the current mechanics won't generate that. The biggest groups will always be able to stomp through any smaller groups at will. Literally the only thing allowing smaller alliances to hold space is the lack of desire to stomp all over their space. I'd much rather see a system where lots of small groups held, used and defended space because they actually want to use it rather that a system that's simply so cumbersome to deal with that the only people attacking sov are people who don't want it.

I doubt that, but even if it were the case then that still makes you a coalition it just means you have an open PvP policy during peacetime.

You're not suffering ISK losses? Someone let sKB know their killboard is broken.

How can it become an annual thing if you're kicking goons out of Deklein?
