Please, sirs, allow me a moment to interject from the en24 circlejerk.

(By the way, you all were hardly "covert")

This will be a quick personal statement, as I am not a TL diplo, leader, or any sort of person that pretends to be important in a game.


We, as in TL, have always provided "good fights" to anyone we rolled into or rolled into us. Any alliance can attest to us. We have no only provided fights, but have fought when we shouldn't we have fought in glorious 3 ways. We have fought in a null dive, only to come back and reship to armor to engage another WH entity.

We recall a time SSC caught some of us with Ventures- they let us go, we reshipped into armor, and we had a fight. This is Transmission Lost.

Most of us were not in the alliance when it was Narwals. There goes that excuse.

ArrowThere was no intention of a "good fight." You brought an eviction fleet. You were looking for the Loveshack specifically, with EA.

[31-Mar-13 18:26:37] Cipreh --: also I am paying handsomely for a kspace route into the TL wormhole
[31-Mar-13 18:26:53] Cipreh --: because we have been rolling for 3 days straight
[31-Mar-13 18:26:57] Cipreh --: over 340 wormholes
[31-Mar-13 18:27:01] Cipreh --: and still not gotten in


If this was your op, why was Cipreh so desperate to find us? Why did Bane post this in Lost Pub?

This was an eviction from the start. Bane and Cip both knew about this from the beginning. Polarized may have done the legwork, but there's more that Max and Co. are helping to hide.

So all this talk about how the Loveshack had some sort of coup needs to stop. RIGHT NOW.



So what is my point in this? I'm not going to post a perspective or statement from TL. Maybe if the leadership wants I wil. However until all of them agree I suggest wait for the story to be said on TMC.


Also. All of you other WH dwellers out there. CSM elections are coming up. those of you in C5/C6 alliances, who follow the unwritten code of Bob.. that we respect those who fight, and evict those who scavenge resources with no respect to fighting.


KNOW THIS.

Know that Cipreh and Chitsa have shown that they will bring massive fleets to evict entities that provide fights. Know this that you now now have less people to have those fights, at least for the time being.


REMEMBER THIS

When you cast your votes. Remember who really will represent the preservation of the WH community. If you were going to cast any vote for these two, you may want to reconsider... lest you find yourself under the guns of a nullsec-sized fleet.

Just another example of how they'll just deny that they needed to hire 200+ people to take out an active and contributing entity (a fight of which they had little participation in) and will circumvent all types of actual discussion about the fight/previous motives.

Seeing the fleet that came to support Hard Knocks when they got invaded, it would have been a tactical error to not get extra support. Face it, the bat phone is here to stay in wormhole space, whether we like it or not. Once we heard SSC was coming to help, we expected a HUGE fleet to come help.

Also, we were rolling for three days prior to getting in, which was known to just about everyone in wh space. Why TL didn't use that time to prepare better is a mystery to me.

Lastly, I want to clear up a few things I have heard over the last few days.

1) My group was never booted from TL. No one was ever booted from TL. We had planned to leave and that is what happened.

2) This was not an EA op. We were invited by Polarized to attend. The credit for the hard work and planning should go to them.

3) No one was ever paid to attend this operation. People were either motivated by what they thought would be a huge fight, or people just didn't like TL.

4) I am in fact butthurt. Sitting on my ass for three days rolling a c5 static will do that.

Hey guys,

Just wanted to say Zer01 + POSHU had lots of fun with this operation. Although we have friends on both sides of this conflict we had alot of fun being the defenders for once Big smile. Either way all of our guys had lots of fun on comms and we enjoyed shooting each other haha. Hopefully we can all move forward from this and resume the good fights soon. I hope to see you all on the battlefield.

It was fun being on comms with you and other corps that we're usually engaging. It's unique.

And the speech prior was inspiring :)

The first point, it agrees with me so we'll leave it at that.

You say this was not an EA op, however the logs tell a different story. I hear there are more incoming in a soon-to-be-posted article on TMC. I guess we'll have to wait for those. That being said, in the course of the past week I have heard it go from a massive invasion fleet, to a ~gudfights~ fleet, to an eviction fleet.

Stop pretending it wasn't. Polarized seeded in 12 caps (because EA has few, let alone ones that can't leave your C2). They seeded in 9 Bhaals, and most of the time numbers ranged from 80-130.

BUT even that doesn't stop the glaring evidence, which is after both ~gudfights~ you participated in an eviction. If you're going to lie, at least be better at it.

Marmites were hired THE SAME DAY as the invasion fleet began rolling. Considering TL hasn't been in a war in almost a year (except for the small corp that ended up falling apart because of us) it seems like a pretty funny coincidence. Oh and look, the eviction is done and the Marmite war is ending.



As to your ass, I can only suggest Icy Hot. Just keep it off the balls. Trust me.

Its pretty simple to stop this blobbing bullshit, stop invading a single entity with like 6 allainces do it yourself for fucksake then ppl wouldnt be trying to coem help the person being invaded, i know for a fact if 1 group invaded another and they asked us for help we would tell them to **** off

Vincent Gaines you truly need to get a new tune. I am busy so will keep this short.

Bane went to gunner and explaned that some people wanted to leave TL and that he would like to take the name. He gave him time to talk it out and said things like "I do not want to be a ****" and "want to give you guys time to talk about it". The reply was to do a midnight vote to change ownership with an alt corp putting it over the top. This is also with MOST of the corps acually in the allaince not being on the on the councel and able to vote.

Bane came to the loveshack guys and tried to talk about it and they did a midnight take over. SO all deniels of there being some shaddy business needs to .. how did you say it. STOP RIGHT NOW.

EA was asked to join polarized. We did not start this we where ask to come in. No one was paid.

You KNEW for 3 days that we where rolling in and did NOTHING until the last day. Then did not have any courdination with your Alliess when they did get in to help. THEN through a ***** fit at them for trying to help.

I know that nothign we say will change your mind. Arguments can legititmly made about eveictions vrs fights and so forth. Mabye your leadership should conduct themself in such a way that they do not annoy so many people to this lvl.

Nobody twisted 1%'s arm. Nobody twisted R-NAT's arm. DDOWN industry was put in months before this happened. Who was discussing tin-foil again? I don't even need to bring up the name issue. Both Bane and yourself have shown that it's still a painful memory and really you should just let it go.

Of course, seems like you couldn't when Cipreh came on comms Monday evening asking for the name back.

We knew you were coming, we knew the names of your scouts. We dispatched at least one and had another in just a pod. We knew you were rage rolling to get in, and we kept sig watch and hole control for 3 days. We did not "do anything" if you are referring to batphoning because we don't run to friends at the first sign of trouble. Only with an unlucky roll did you get in, and it's actually hilarious irony how it happened.

Lastly, regarding TL leadership. EA leadership has held no qualms about hating on DJ. It's well known.

Sorry Bane, but for an alliance diplo AND recruiter your spiel is lacking. Firstly, you drew a wrong conclusion from the Hard Knocks invasion.. The reason so many people came to help out Hard Knocks during their invasion was because their single corp was being invaded by TWO alliances. Even in the final battle report it shows that HRDX fielded 44 pilots compared to 45 from NoHO and 33 from W-space. So yeah, no kidding, everyone likes the underdog and no one likes the bully.

Second, its funny that you are saying that "batphone is here to stay" as part of your defense when the second point of your very own statement is that YOU and your alliance was batphoned. Mister Al on EvE-ru is also stating that w-space was batphoned in anticipation of a batphone. Gee, I wonder why good fights are so difficult to come by when everyone is META gaming to the max while evicting a pvping group of players.

Thirdly, I can totally relate to your painful multi day rolling session so you can evict a group of players with whom you parted on poor terms. Yeah this whole thing was for good fights for sure Roll

I never said that this was a long standing plot or that the alt corp was brought in for that porpose. I did say that Bane went with good intentions and got spit in the face. Which you have convinently keep on ignoring in your replys.

I could care less about the Name .. i was in TL for like a month before this all went down. I have no axe to grind I am just speaking about what happened and my prosptective in it.

You did batphone before they got in. You just sucked at cordination once you did.

I haver not commented ont he invastion vrs good fight thing becuase I do not know abotu that .. and unlike you I can acually admit it.

Yeap .. they oh .. that guy is right and I look like a tool. Lets say that his replys do not matter card. Whats next your mom jokes?

Yeap I was not there for long before this happend. So .. logicly that means that I am less biased. I am sure that I have got some things wrong but i have talked to both sides and have seen chat logs and forum post again from both sides.

Since you can not even look at facts ... like for example that Polarized engenired this entire thing. Then your .. i can't even use the word opinion... lets say propiganda means nothing.

This was not a contract as is the usual motivation of a mercenary alliance, but a simple adventure to encourage a fight.


This isn't correct at all.It isn't looking for fights, why don't you just admit the fact it was an eviction(and nothing to do with goodfights)
And you even prove it in the same post on evenews :
Quote:
At this time, Polarized./Existential/Atztek took wormhole control with a fleet of fifty sub-capital ships.

So you started the invasion with 3 alliances against 1.
What ever the reasons are, i don't care.
I am a bit disapointed in polarized. though, i though you would be able to handle us on your own... .
We would never had any reinforcements if the odds weren't stacked against us.

Like many of you mention, we aren't that loved by the other w-space alliances(why i still don't understand, but that is just me).
In fact you can state correctly that these badly stacked odds in it self was a bathphone to every other alliance.
At all times the odds were stacked against us, but still we fought. Even though we knew it was a turkey shoot.

And an other thing, after you got your "goodfight" you still did the structure grind... .
Can someone tell me what the goodfight is in shooting 9 POCO's and all our pos'es(10 or more, i never bothered to count)?
I can't seem to understand were the good fights are in that... .

I can only agree with Gnaw :

relax guys, these TLost guys fight and don't sd inside pos shields :D

it's also clear to me that tlost has probably the lowest numbers on any of the battle reports. they fight
