This is Official NoHo policy on this, from talking to BU reps I got the feeling that they came to the exact same conclusion that we already had buzzing in the back of our head. A summer spent invading back and forth would be a god damn booring summer !

They approached us which frankly I had a lot of respect for because the animosity and misunderstandings etc has always had a easier time of it building up between russian and non russian entities. And someone had to stop the spiral from getting any stupider.

Personally

I don't detest BU or any other entity I can think off, detesting entities just seems like too much energy wasted. I think every entity has something they bring to the table including the farmers (someone has to sing right? )

We just don't like invasions very much I can't think of a single one that brought good fites, But I can think of a ton that escalated and ended up in massive blue balls, where the balls are big and definitively blue. The only one that I can think of that ended in a fight was when we invaded Hard Knocks then got massively outnumbered 2 x in capitals and 1 1/2 times in subcaps and decided to just whelp our fleet in rather then logging off and going for another round of batphones. And although the fight was fun I don't want to whelp a fleet to get a fight each time either.

In my experience having animosity between you and another entity makes that entity not willing to fight you unless they are guaranteed a win and vice verca, because suddenly loosing means something to the ego.

This is not conducive to fun gameplay for me, I love how there are so many entities that we have fought kicked the **** out of and who in turn have kicked the **** out of us back and forth, with each battle causing us to rethink our approach for next time. And never do we get pissed for loosing or feel the need to gloat for winning. This to me is what makes wormholes so dang fun. It's a evolutionary race.

Sitting defending holes for 1d17h or shooting structures knowing that in the end we will either watch a bunch of residents suicide their ****, or else so much reinforcements coming in that a battle is basically suicide is not fun and I think BU came to realise that as we also did some time ago.

This post lasted longer than the "war".

I've got a bunch of alts logged out in some C1 full of idiots. i'm going to let the idiots build their phoenix to siege out the AFK corp of bears out of the C1, then murder their Phoenix. It's like an invasion, but you let the iddiots do all the hard work and then you pull a BUQUEX LOLODERP logon trap on them, which is kinda like living in a C5, except I can go to Jita and double my ISK anytime i want.

Ergo, I win at wormholes.
