@ Tara
I think certain aspects of Test are unalterably fixed. Lively talkative, lots of bad posts, those are core values of the Eve guild of the Reddit community and the pubbies it's brought along for the ride. So too we are committed to nullsec and Boodabooda has confirmed that Aridia is a pitstop on our way back to Sov.
That said immediate plans should see some lowsec shennanigans.
Your absolutely right about the friendships and we have a lot of people rooting for us. Even our enemies I think will miss us on the nullsec landscape.
I'm enjoying being involved in trying to turn it round. While I regret that so many of our deeply adored FCs have moved on it's a vacuum that us rookie FCs can try to fill.

This is exceptionally revisionist, by the time you guys really started outnumbering Goonswarm Federation proper on a regular basis you had already been installed as the lords of fountain. The whole PET status is silly as well. You need look no further than Xdeath to find someone who is generally friendly to us, not a member of our coalition yet has managed to generally avoid pissing in our cornflakes on a regular basis... and if their space were invaded we'd be down there in an instant defending them.
Good diplomacy does not necessarily mean submission to authority. The fact that you guys continue to attempt to rewrite history is one of the major sticking points of our relations today and why the general consensus amongst Joe Goon is "They deserve this." |

In short: You deserved this. How many times did you pay insurance on that hurricane. There are no goons. The goons' 0.0 dream is over.

I mean I'm not even going to lie, I'm a bit bitter about all of this. Twice now I've rallied to war out of my own pockets (Back in those days Instacanes weren't reimbursed) to fight on behalf of an alliance that wanted more space, and only gotten spit in my face and revisionist history a few years later. I generally don't do mainfleet ops, but I was there at the siege of latest siege of 6VD-T... and I was flying the same ******* hurricane I was flying two and a half years ago as a bold face newbie that could barely fit into his brand new HURRICANE CLASS BATTLECRUISER when we wrested control of that very same system to give to our bro's in TEST so they could finally move out of the Testagram.

As much as I understand your point and anger, you cant really be angry at another alliance for the history revisioning. All major alliances have done that, ESPECIALLY Goonswarm. |

So Callduron, the question in the OP is:
Quote: Typical alliance life cycles? Should Test newbros panic?
We both agree the answer is yes, correct?

If you brain that is road to recover you are in for unhappy wacking up. Area is dead. No way to money, but you are pined in like beefcow. You will find more bombings than rats.
You have no friends. This is because TEST is lies. CFC gave you loveseat, handed you region, gave goo... and you turn to everyone we crush {SOME OF THEM WERE CRUSH FOR YOU BBW!} and made them blew. Then you make them **** to. Then you lose war because you don't fight. No you go to corner to die from murder.
You don't need luck. You need theft things and run. |

more than anything else in this thread, a goon complaining about revisionist history is easily the best. especially coming from TrollingVagrant.

There are no "issues" anywhere in EVE. Those "issues" are stories told to people to keep them playing for more than a month in 10% tidi.
Test did their thing the way they wanted, Sometimes it works, sometimes you need to cry in forums for 2 years begging CCP to change game mechanics to favour your gamestyle.
In the end as already shown in the past, the side roleplaying more "wins" since their members are willing to endure more lag and blueball decisions. Then it becomes so big that only time will make them implode. This is what happened to BOB, to NC, to NC mk2(aka delve goons) and time will come when it will happen to the NC mk3.

Their way of playing the game was shitting on diplomacy and more?
By issues i meant internal problems, leadership changes, lack of matured pvp'ers (ones who'd fought for their space) and ofc diplomatic problems. |

There's not much secret or rocket science involved. Just find a good group and stick with them.
Isk, sov, whatever are temporary anyway, now you have them now you don't. Doesn't make much sense to care too much about it. They can't be a purpose just a tool.
I wouldn't care too much about the random opportunist newbs that leave when things go wrong. You get them when you don't filter your members, in exchange you get huge numbers. Look at goons they already proven that quantity > quality years ago when their combat tactic was to crash servers (in a way still is). With a handful of people that know what they are doing test can be goon v2. What works, works. |
