Ivy league is pushing the limits as we did once and we got a "p-alliance" nerf doesnŠt matter if its within the mechanics or not. But we will see how that plays out if CCP allowes is in the long run there wonŠt be any alliance wars. They could make you an NPC corp if you are so neutral as you always claim.
If you are winning the war as you say , why donŠt you make it mutual as your players seem to learn from every engagement ?
You are not learning them PvP as you intend to you are learning them avoiding fights at all costs. My corp often brought reasonable fleets to your homesystem gave you time to scout and refit all your ships and still no one showed up. The 40 man blob fleets with loads of EW that we dismantle on a regular basis arenŠt the stuff you should teach. Of corse you feel safe in large fleets but thats how 0.0 developed into goonies playground . That makes you a valid target because you are making the next generation of brainless sheep that only do what they are told and never ever take on a fight that is not 10:1- ruines the game really.
And really you are all making it worse. DonŠt know what who when the war started but now you got even more pirate wannabes with fat wallets on your behind.
Personally i am not into management and i damn sure donŠt want to do anything within the privateers alliance apart from having fun so stop pretending you are soo poor so its allright to evade. You have the numbers you even have tec II ships so start teaching them small scale battles and give us a challenge.

It's good to know there are people like you around to balance the nerd-rage with your well thought-through and balanced posts, moving the debate forward without resorting to childish namecalling and other cheap tricks. If more people were like you this would be a better game.
STFU
The day this topic, or any topic on CAOD becomes about balance and game mechanics, will be the day angry nerds stop playing. This isn't even about politics, although some players pretend. This is about E-Peen waving, and nothing else.
With all the s**t talking going on, I'm just pointing out how ridiculous it all is. This game is awesome, it's just a damn shame some of it's players are so insignificant. (Irony LOL)
alt rage ?

Originally by: Ki An Why are you cheating like this if you are winning the war? You know, there are other ways to dissuade the Privateers from their "holy crusade" that involves actually playing the game as intended as opposed to pulling lame stunts like this.
Well, as I explained, I don't see it as cheating, personally. There are no unusual mechanics being used, but together, they have an interesting result.
However, there comes a time that after saying "Bad Dog!" for seven weeks, and the message not getting through, you just need to rub his nose in it to get the message across.

And that message would be ?

Question is, should that be so or not? CCP will decide i guess.
Amen to that

Originally by: Butter Dog Privateers.... lol
The alliance which decs claiming to want good fights, then retracts at the first sign of a T1 cruiser squad ;)
Hehe nice thing about this alliance is that you canŠt throw them into one pot.
Some are in for the ganks , some even only fly tec I frigs to get on the killmails/loot. But some and i admit not the major part are in for the fights.
Simple reason: Privateers provides wars with multiple wartargets at reasonable costs.
And as you can see on the forum most players have strong feelings so they actually hunt us , and by god thats the most fun if you donŠt have to look for them the whole day/night.
As far as i know its intended to be that way every corp minds its own business only if they want they can join up mixed fleets.

Originally by: The Hooch Edited by: The Hooch on 25/05/2008 16:33:06 There is no real crying here boys and girls. It is the whole inconsistency at issue. After the "P - Alliance" patch which was supposed to "fix" the war dec system, instead it left this hole just begging to be exploited. Well, it has been and we are pointing this out now.
On a side not if we wish to, and we just might pay this fee anyway if to prove we can match and dirty trick with a like action. We ain't lacking for isk to do it.
Also, we are looking for mouthy people in this thread and that is providing us with all kinds of new targets. So maybe we let Ivy go for a few days and we take a look at this thread and see who needs a bit of our "Priva-Tears".
See you soon!
Hooch
Like there is anyone who isn't an Empire carebear who is afraid of that. Lolz.
Fact of the matter is that privateer alliance is no threat whatsoever to anyone who is capable of fighting back. Which is why they like to pick on empire corps and especially, noob training corps like the uni.
So, they've set out to make it as expensive as possible for you. I applaud that. I love listening to the whines of pirates whenever they are faced with ANY risk or cost consequences to what they do. You can fight all the wars you want and it won't cost you any ISK. Show some nads and show yourselves in 0.0.
You won't.
You sir , just disqualified.
AGAIN : most of the guys i respect in this alliance played longer in 0.0 space than you play this game and there is a reason we stay in empire :
You really think that blob warfare, Cap ship bowling pos camping/outpost hugging and all the other stuff you nubs find soo amazing is fun ?
Dude, you never played eve....

Originally by: Surreptitious Otherwise you should just accept the fact that our griefing is a new facet of your gameplay..
Can it be? An honest Priva-tear?
Care to explain how self-admitting griefing "contributes to the game in a positive manner"?
Based on this self-admission, perhaps CCP will take an interest in that angle, as well.
Tormenta Noche
Same way that ever pirate ever in this game contributed.
WE make it a harsh world, not the alliances that fly their afk haulers through empire. WE make you think where you fly how you fit your ship in empire . WE make you cry when you jump into a camp without scout.
And for the ones that fight back -> WE provide targets.
And actually most of them who fight back enjoy it as much as we do if not more.

Originally by: Ponderous Thunderstroke When the pirates and griefers and jerks are coming up with new and more annoying ways to prosecute their griefdom, complaints are met with "shut up and grow balls", "learn to fight newb", "GB2WOW", and my favorite, "PAY THE RANSOM", etc...
When the targets come up with new and more annoying ways to make the griefers have to do something other than push F1-F8 and get their freebie from the EVE Loot Dispensor, it's "OMG CCP EXPLOITZ!!!", "NO HONOUR", "FUHQING CAREBEARZ BREAKING THE RULEZ", etc...
Methinks the whiners doth protest too much.
This week it's 1 billion to keep being pests. Would you like to play Double Jeopardy and go for 2 billion a week?
Oh and BTW, you're not winning. Ivy Killboard (can't link for obvious reasons), you're losing 3.975billion to 3.365billion in cash, an efficiency edge of 54% for the Uni. I hardly expect that to change, as hey, how much can ISK damage can you really do, to a bunch of newbs in frigates?
It always was and always will be that way. Fact is both game styles make eve what it is. But there are certain limits in pushing the game mechanics as CCP showed with the P-alliance nerf.
And for the statistics canŠt comment on the alliance ones , corp wise it looks pretty good.
Think that war is much more nowadays as when it started tbh.

Originally by: The Hooch Edited by: The Hooch on 26/05/2008 13:33:24 I would like to see some CCP reflections on this issue at some point in this thread.
Love us or hate us, this has long term concerns for mercs and pirate alike. Setting aside Privateers all suck and Ivy are as pure as new fallen snow sideshows.
I think its' time for real thoughts from the devs.
Hooch
You think devs will get into a barfight ?

Originally by: Sani Ka and who invited all the empire carebears and advanced carebears in here? sriously gtfo k
Is there some sort of forum access restriction for yarrrr types only?
I would have thought commom interest is the thing that's pulling in the carebears - it is after all carebears that get wardecced by merciless pirates who feast on their tears and dance on their wrecks and shattered dreams!
What the man said.
I mean come on , getting actually rid of the one alliance who makes empire dangerous every now and then is the definition of the carebears dream.
What most of the ppl in this game have yet to learn is that PvP actually is fun and when you try it outside of the blob you might even get good at it and enjoy it even more.
And yes i know there are other aspects of this game .. bla bla ...
And we all know that if you donŠt want to fight there are millions of ways to avoid it in empire. So why all the hard feelings and mud throwing ?
