I don't know what has changed, back around 3 years ago (naive as I was) managed to joined a corp in null , and tbh I saw more red than blues. After a month and personally much poorer, alliance dissolved and sov was taken, left corp and never been back in null since.

don;t monitor 0.0 close so i will ask: what happened in last 8 weeks? Would you show some resource to look at?

(in hopes i will see something about big war between goons/tests/pl and all this stuff)


TLDR:

Test gets powerful enough to destroy Goons.

Goons convince everyone that this is impossible and that Test had better shut up.

Some weird fights with key people doing questionable things, not just the megabattle with the misjumped titan, all kinds of strangeness in many fights throughout March and April.

Leader of Test suddenly and without explanation leaves! joins Pandemic Legion wtf. And takes some serious assets upon departure.

Test reinforces most CVA POCO's with serious cap fleets, then leaves! They never came back to follow through. Perhaps they were seeing if PL or Goons would aid CVA, or perhaps they got distracted.

Serious fights in Delve between...everyone. And industrialists switching production from mining/fabrication to war goods.

All this on top of production and resource seeding being moved out of highsec and into low/null. And the Goon moon goo racket coming to an end because of basic game changes.

You appear to be confusing your Scottish cities. Aberdeen is a dull place, Glasgow is where you go to get murdered.

Meh, I don't really think Null is a blue doughnut.
I just felt like sharing this old song, and needed a reason to do so, hence null sec blue doughnut joke.

The OP subscribes to the “blue doghnut“ myth, and illustrates this with the “I'm blue” music video.

But blue donoughts are blueberry and thus excellent!
If null wasn't all blue then why do they complain and want more hisec for their empire?

And why is the subscribed update not fixed yet?


Highsec was probably designed as a place where new players could develop and understanding of Eve and get themselves sorted before venturing off into the uncharted and hostile wilderness.

New players still start there.

Also players who are conflict averse and just want to fabricate and farm live there.

The problem is that the new players are forced to be exposed to the conflict averse players before they meet those who enjoy the PvP aspect of Eve. The Bears get first dibs on the new recruits.

I lost years of game play trying to get out of highsec because of misinformation and people who hate the other side of the game.

I think that bears are just as aggressive and dangerous to new players as PvP players are, and that new players should be protected from them in the same way that they are protected from nullsec.

Bears are scary.
Especially polar bears, who live in Polaris.

here, this one leads to my personal weblog of Eve Online related stories and how I analyze current mineral market trends and how to armor tank. Been doing it for some years and I know a lot of people here have read me. I also post some dirty CCP secrets that made me be banned for some months. Nothing secret there!

The moment where you have to explain your joke is the moment when all hope is lost, earth stops spinning a bit in pain and the rainbow is no more. Don´t do it, ever. just a tip Big smile

that's all great and funny but....

usually when people say about BLUE NULL it means that the biggest and strongest alliances never fight seriously. And from your story i really don't see anything opposite to this "blue theory".
Reinforcing POCOs? And never returning to finish attack.... LoL.
"serious fights in Delve between everyone" - that's might be interesting. Unless this is some kind of that "arena" some people were saying few months ago.....

Goons invading Querious is not *serious*?

I believe it's "I'm blue, if I were green I would die." In eves case it would be "I'm not blue, I'm going to die."

HBC falls apart over some fat chick.

Goons are there to attack people abandoning their space.

You missed the 'epic' part about how 10 or so guys walk away with trillions after the melt down and we see it all begin again.

The pickle that is EVE. It dies without Vets but Vets are the ones who watched it all play out over the years and know damn well what is going to happen at every turn.
