More RvB and E-Uni Fun

This weekend they go to "war". "War" because it will be full of rules.

But before the war starts, PvP happened in lowsec, and the Uni got upset.

And remember, when Kelduum is running for CSM7, when he mentions that he likes PvP, bear in mind that he doesn't engage in any PvP (he rarely leaves station) and that he will lobby for a capture-the-flag game as a replacement for highsec wars.

Oh, Poetic, you were doing so well... sort of.

The full list of 'rules', such as they are, as Poetic hasn't approved my comment to his blog yet:
- No intentional podding. But it will probably happen anyway.
- Home systems are off limits, because station camping is boring.
(Both of which were suggested by RvB when they approached us about the war, although we decided against a proposed limit on hull sizes.)

And who knows, there may have been surprise pew-pew from RvB on purpose... LoSec isn't safe, and blues can fire, they just don't. Valuable lesson perhaps for the guys there maybe?

FYI, I do have a PvP alt, in fact maybe its someone in RvB, or The 0rphanage, or PL? Nobody knows!!!!!!111oneoneeleven.

Finally, in made-up news, I now want to replace wardecs with a game of tic-tac-toe, however in actual confirmed and not made-up news, I do advocate the distribution of Cheez-Its to the UK.

Poetic - the bone - its picked. Clean. When will you drop your personal vendetta against Uni? Did they reject your app or something? ;)

Regardless - this an attempt to create drama where there is none. All types of corps set people blue. And all types of corps get shot by blues. And in every single instance where I have seen someone get killed by blues, much anger on both the individual and corporate level always follows. Its been the casus belli on many occasions. This is not something that is unique to Uni.

What you are saying is: "Someone is angry for getting shot by blues! News at 11."

Its not news - its an expected outcome for any entity in Eve.

Why dont you use your proclivity for writing to bring attention to useful subjects that are worthy of discussion and/or change. I suggest faction warfare missions and Tier 1 battlecruisers as possible subjects.

I find it quite amusing that arranged war is the only war possible now.

I find it even more amusing that ITT where one of the corps responsible for "dec shields" is bitching.

I do hope your pretend war goes OK Eve-Uni.

Nope, its still possible. Despite the 1 BN ISK bill, we got wardecced back in December. Their three members didn't turn up after the first couple of days, but it proved its very much possible.

Mmm but the thing is your corp/alliance are pretty much "undeccable" due to dec shields. This isn't new and according to a fairly impeccable source the "dec shields" and stuff ARE more or less uniquely Eve-Uni generated.

I don't have a problem with avoiding stupid war-decs but you (and your student alts) broke the wardec system. Yes it was crap but you (Eve-Uni) broke it. Had any other alliance done what you did with alts then they would have been permabanned.

So enjoy your meaningless "war". Frankly times must be pretty crap for RvB if they are contemplating fighting with you and your additional rules. *snip*

Why is OP so bitter with EVE Uni?

He writes well and is a decent blogger, but he wastes his talents on such drivel and drama. Continue focusing on more productive things to write about that will actually enlighten readers rather than this nonsense. The amount of negative energy he embodies as he writes this stuff is sad. Immersion much.

And notifying CCP of a large engagement so they can try to make sure the lag isn't STUNNINGLY BAD is what, spontaneous?

You pull that "it was my plan all along" *snip* everytime you (or one of your directors) screws up. I'm sure 300 Unistas proclaimed you a genius today, and that's gone a long way to stroke your ego further, but drop the "evil genius" bit. You've overplayed that hand far too many times. That *snip* was amusing at first, back when I was a member, and then when you kept going to that trough, over and over ... sheesh.

God almighty, if it wasn't for the fact I know your entire alliance would quickly dock up the minute my Vengeance (of Great Justice!) showed up alone in system, I would almost be willing to dec the crap out of you guys. Better yet, I could join up with RvB and pod you. Nothing funnier than a smartbombing Rokh landing on field, and you guys wondering what happened.

Hey, it wasn't intentional podding. You just didn't get the hell out by the time my smartbombs cycled...

Yes, he did, and I entirely blame him for the new addiction.

Hard to see how that could be any more tedious and annoying than station camping, which is currently all that high sec wars boil down to.

Even when the Uni arranges a "war", they turtle up in station.
