Crime & Punishment

I’m here to tell you the story of the week I spent with pandemic legion amongst them, and how that entire experience went overall. I’m sure you see their grandiose propaganda of saying how great they are but the dark gritty truth of the matter is that they are lying to you. Behind the facade there is a rotting decay festering within their ranks, signalling the beginning of the end for the legion and here’s why.

While many of those inside of the Pandemic legion will argue that their economy is doing great, the monthly economic reports posted by the CCP don’t lie as the regions within their sphere of influence are hemorrhaging Isk like there isn’t a tomorrow, namely the Pure Blind and The Fade, that are highly indicative of a lack of production ongoing. The markets and their respective prices tell a different story on the lack of any sort of free market competition ongoing as the Legion has resort to the evils of socialism, weakening the resolve of its new members by giving them a handout. The cost of even a basic frigate was highly overpriced by approximately 33% to 66% higher than its counterpart located in the nearby hub of Jita where the Pandemic Legion holds a trade post in Perimeter, but you question what does this mean about this alliance in economic terms.

The PanFam has been on a massive marketing spree in order to try to recruit Alpha clones to fight their fights and swarm any enemy invaders, IE treated as cannon fodder with little regard for legitimate tactics, with ships that have been handed out to them. What the directors of the PanFam and the arrogant Gobbins fail to realize that this sudden influx of members puts an strain on resources and the demand for them, creating a demand-pull inflation on their economy. This combined with their recent mass expansion into other regions has culminated in the extreme overexertion of their current resources, as with the shortage of the necessary hardware namely Munitions and replacement vessels. What’s worse is by providing some of these vessels for free, they hamper the ambitious creative spirit that seeks to build character and resolve through the struggle of working for what someone has earned through sweat and tears, the reward of hard prosperous labor, decimating any sort of drive to accomplish anything while under their stead.

Another issue that plagues the Pandemic legion is the price of minerals thanks to the efforts of their native miners and salvagers who refused to sell anything below the equivalent of a Jita sell price, and resort to compressing their ores then shipping them to Jita because of their lack of awareness of the strain they put on their hosting economy, turning a mutual symbiosis into a one way parasitistic relationship. Greed has driven the miners and haulers associated with the PanFam to silently turn on their host, robbing it blind whilst they reap the products of the Pure Blind, effectively creating hive of a parasitic unionists whom refuse to do business with any sort of industrialist within the PanFam unless they are willing to be subjected to extortion like how miners are to CODE enforcers within hi-sec. The Haulers in service are just as equally corrupt, harvesting the rewards of the misery and suffering of the PanFam economy, creating a deficit in trade by exporting everything that they possibly could to Jita while barely returning to them with a piece of hardware for Horde efforts, failing to engage in trade on the behalf of their benefactors, adding to the list of parasite horde suffers from in this day.

Who is to blame for this you ask? Its leadership and poor planning, as history goes to show that the Pandemic legion took advantage of a conflict to stake their claim in new nullsec territory after clashing with the Goonswarm federation in the Fountain region, an alliance who’s taken the time to make the best of a tactical retreat into the Delve to produce record mining yields as of April 2016. With the advent of Citadels, Pandemic legion in its haste did something horrible and turned to Real Money Trading and the use of Casinos where Isk was used to earn real world cash but fortunately the CCP put an end to that dirty sordid business, and the Legion believe it or not was more than guilty of its fair share of gambling as a primary source of income. When CCP issued their crackdown, more than 30tril ISK was removed from circulation in the game in terms of assets and what not, while very little of those assets belonged to Imperium, the PanFam was likely hit the hardest within the past year.

The extent of their economic downturn has resorted to them even outsourcing work to the Droneland Federation, a mostly russian player base with enough production facilities to drive empire economies into the ground, who've been exchanging ISK for capital ships and the like in the recent era. The Low man on totem pole in this alliance is often subject to being the victim as its “Good Old Boys” its directors and Newbean Initiative are primarily focused on themselves as they’ve slowly become toxic towards them, unwilling to encourage to pursue their ambitious spirit, instead resorting to cyber bullying of an autist friend of mine who’s simple desire is to manufacture ships all live long day long by saying his dreams are garbage. Now I question you capsuleers, is that an Alliance that you want to be a part of? One where you are treated like a commodity just to be sent in as cannon fodder with little regard from the people that supposed to ensure that you are prospering and thriving under their stead?

To my fellow capsuleers, let it be known amongst us that we shouldn’t tolerate this abuse and should boycott any PanFam Coalition recruitment, and withdraw any of our clones from their ranks. Their negligence shouldn't go unheeded which is why I feel that those viewing this advisory should share alike amongst their fellow pilots to prevent them from being seduced by the lie that is the Legion.

Yay! Eve propaganda!

You know, code means very little to players outside hs and the "Imperium" never meant anything to anyone except Brave, maybe, since it marks their down fall, because it basically didn't exist. So trying to make them look like the good guys is pointless.

I wonder who is this addressed to? Anti gambling assocciation?

The rest of what you describe is regular eve gameplay where other players are nothing else than statistics to be farmed.

You mean KFC.

I guess we can throw this article into the mix too.

So, OP.......show us on the action figure where the bad CODE/Miniluv enforcer touched you.

We promise to be nice.

Hey, it seems the Imperium -does- mean something even to you. Regardless if it's something you wouldn't even poke with a stick.

OP success.

I KNEW IT! I knew I was elite!

Oh snap! IT'S FESTERING!

Get it off, get it off.

Oh hey it's the guy who complained when he made t1 frigates that people wouldn't buy because we gave them out for free.

EDIT wait I actually read this pile of wat. Wat.
