Intergalactic Summit

The militia does not equate to the Empire proper. Further, the standings hit is likely from Amarr militia members coming to Providence intending to do harm, and due to CONCORD rules any action against these individuals results in a standings hit.

I'm sure your own alliance members buying their way to +10 standings with CONCORD results in those little misunderstandings from suicide ganking just disappearing since they're the best of buddies. Oh wait, it doesn't, because the entire DED sponsored standings system Capsuleers have to put up with is broken.

This reminds me of these post-grad journalists who just got their new job and are eager to get any kind of sensation while being total asses.

You are forgetting something - I am not a part of CVA, so please, do me a favor and don't misinterpret my words.

And by the way, how did you get access to these mails, care to explain?

The mail itself is a standard mail sent out to any and all groups or individuals ejected from the militia. As much as you seem to be taking advantage of the wording, I can assure you it means nothing to do with the Empire proper. Have you ever joined Faction Warfare? Most who are a part of it would be quite aware of this fact.

Further, last I check my personal standings to the Empire have not changed in the slightest, nor has Pentag Blade's, nor Calvu's nor TLOS or anyone else by this effect. I'm still in the comfortably "excellent" category.

As for citizenship, again no. Nothing has changed for my personal circumstances, I'm still a legal vassal of the Avarr family and an Imperial subject.

To further the point how you've gotten the complete wrong end of the stick, when we joined the militia we were welcomed to the "Amarr Empire faction". At no point did the Empire's proper authorities take charge of the Providence region, as one would expect were CVA to become an official organisation within the Empire, so that leaves me thinking the "Amarr Empire faction" in question refers to which faction one is privateering for within the Militia War.

Again, if you had experience within Faction Warfare you might have figured that one for yourself as well. I guess a few months as the largest lowsec alliance in New Eden wasn't sufficient education, perhaps Goonswarm could take a tour with the State much like TEST did before it?

Anyways, what exactly do our standings have to do with the Conclave? Whether the Empire accepts us or not (and clearly our leaving the militia has nothing to do with our relations with the Empire proper as outlined) it is still, and always will be, our ambition to have the Providence region annexed.

(Oh and if you were wondering, some of the corporations in CVA had negative standings to the Empire at the time of the Unity event, but that didn't stop the Amarr Navy singing the alliance's praises!)

I think it goes hand in hand with charging tolls for crossing bridges. As entertaining as it has been, my mother always warned me about feeding tall, odd looking creatures who demand payment to cross rivers. Apparently they make a side income posting terribly in threads on the GalNet as well!

Your faux concern is noted Arrendis. Considering how all knowing the Directors of Goonswarm are reported to be, it's refreshing to see one admit they didn't have a clue what they were on about

You asked, I answered. I think that was quite helpful myself.

No backpeddling here. You seem to think I care about whether I'm a jackass or that you're an obvious concern troll. I don't, I just find it hilarious seeing you keep up the act. But all good things must come to an end, I have a University to help run so I'll leave you to it.

I have already answered this very question in a reply to the mail you sent me. The Conclave's recommendations are exactly that, recommendations that require ratification by the Holder Alliances, which requires time to happen. Once it is ratified it will be up to the individual Holder Alliances to enforce it and supply the proceedures for sanctions where required.

To answer the question on capsuleers and baseliners the Act applies to both who are resident within the region. If the individual is not a resident of the region there is not much any organisation in Providence can do outside censure and possibly setting the individual Kill on Sight should they enter Providence's borders. However, as it is not within the jurisdiction of Providence, it is unlikely that any coalition member would seek to try to apply sanctions on an individual not resident within the region.

I'll recommend here exactly what I recommended in my mail and that is to contact the High Inquisitor and await his answer if you were to have sufficient evidence of an Amarr citizen behaving in a heretical fashion. If the individual is a Providence resident you may present your case also with the KoS admins who can be found in the CVA alliance's diplomatic router channel, bearing in mind the Act has not yet been ratified of course.

It is best to ignore Arrendis and those of her ilk. Something I've learned some time ago she has little to offer to any conversation then a stick to stir still water.
