The Gallente self-image has changed radically in the last few months. Not long ago it was all chest-beating about how you could stand toe to toe with Snuff and were actively provoking them to fight you. Now you're 'the smallest kid' getting bullied by the nasty big guys?

Yeah, you're right, we didn't make a strategic misjudgement by picking a fight with someone who is stronger than us, boasting about how cool we were for doing so, and then complaining that we're a poor little kid getting bullied when we got slapped back down.
Common sense and an accurate perception of our capabilities makes us bad. Far better to have an overinflated sense of our abilities combined with indignant self-pity. The combination looks really good on you and we should seek to emulate it. |

Now you're 'the smallest kid' getting bullied by the nasty big guys? We were chest beating because we killed a few snuff fleets after they escalated with capitals and supers which is a big deal for us and rightfully so. Bohica were actively provoking Snuff by RFing everything in sight, us other guys in GalMil weren't RFing anything at the time. The only reason we could actually beat Snuff those few times was that Bohica put in the work RFing towers, and added enough to our numbers with Ishtars, dreads, HIC and stuff that we could actually stand toe to toe for bit. Without them ofc we cant match a 40 man T3 fleet with capitals and supers on stand by.
So you're saying that now the nullsec tourists, having got you into a conflict you weren't really suited for, have left your side you're now the 'smallest kid' in lowsec.
Fun as this forum smack is, the reality is that GalMil is a bunch of very fine pilots who, rightly, haven't hesitated for a second in the past when it has come to bringing the hammer down on a completely outclassed enemy (those Bohica Ishtars did some quite nasty work against CalMil, for instance). You should be proud about taking Snuff on but you really shouldn't be whining about Snuff using the tools that they have at their disposal to beat you. The fact is, you would do exactly the same in their position. |
