As the standard John Q Wormholer, what are your thoughts on this?
As a member of a small corporation its disheartening to get blobed when all you want is a good fight. We advertise, and try to stick with it, the motto of "Lets try and kill something". HK opened into us a few weeks ago and we were ready to give a fight but were very hesitant at the same time worrying of the "blob". We offered an arranged numbers fight but HK was deployed at the time so they refused so w\e. I hope large wormhole alliances break up and go back to corporation, now that said there are single corp alliances that have grown to massive (by wormhole terms) sizes and they are honestly no fun from what I hear and see.
Are the large entities who are still left dirty blobbers?
Sometimes, but thats mean to say since a lot of the PVP that happens in Bobs domain are ganks in the first place. Its definitely blobbing if you had an agreement to a fight ahead of time
Are we vile trolls who are going to failscade in a few months. (everyone already knows that kill will failscade over a bottle of jack sooner or later)
Meh if you failscade it will be the alliance and you will go back to being corporations, and lets be honest you wont leave W-Space so what ever failscade away. I was rather disappointed to see HK joining KILL in all honestly, the pull of targets got just that much smaller for both enteties
Would you like to see your group of friends grow to the levels that the larger entities have?
Dear god I hope not. Being too big means your profile of engagement changes because people are less likely to fight you. Plain and simple
Would you join one of the large entities if you were given the chance or if the group of friends who tie you down to where you are split up?
We had some offerings and we turned them down. Personally I dont think I would I hate being a +1 in fleet.
Or are you content with being the smaller entity you are now?
Im happy right now, although a few more warm bodies in corp cant hurt us, we are small approaching medium size and thats a good spot I think
And for personal opinions about the major entities and their practices. Do you think our "bring fights or get invaded" rule is BS or do you feel its fair.
Invaded is a big extreme. We have met a few corporations that POSed up as soon as we came in but if we ask them for a 1v1 or 2v2 or something they almost always provide and thats good enough for us. We dont expect people to suicide and Im sure none of the large alliances would like to do that either.
Final question is in all honesty, when you roll into a major group that you aren't blue to. And you have sufficient numbers on, what are your honest thoughts? Do you turn tail and run, do you hope that they didn't see you, or do you get scouts out there and start doing the numbers game trying to see if you can bring a fight?
The latter would be the answer for SUSU, I'm not going to suicide my ships into your fleet but I will try to convo someone and maybe arrange a GF. obviously if the numbers are right Ill bring my cool toys or w\e but otherwise if I know you have 30 man fleet I wont willingly fight it with my 5 man fleet because my guys wont have fun. There is a balance there somewhere. Host of podcast Down The Pipe www.downthepipe-wh.com Podcast Public Channel is DTP Podcast @drverikan on twitter [email protected] |

No offence James but its not providing YOU a challenge because SSC is so big. Small and medium corporations get plenty(relative to larger corporations because people are more willing to fight small groups) of content and challenge because we cant always ensure victory by numbers.

-Again. Misconception. WeGÇÖre all in different WHs. Unless youGÇÖre talkin about us being blobbers as individual corpsGǪ
I was rather disappointed to see HK joining KILL in all honestly, the pull of targets got just that much smaller for both enteties
-Why would our pool of targets be enough concern for you to be disappointed? That just seems oddGǪ
Im well aware you all live in separate wormholes but individually your corporations are much larger the lets say the "average" wormhole corporation. Not to say that you blob but im sure you can see my point here. And as far as me being disappointed in HK joining KILL is me caring for wspace to have a diversity of targets and when you take two,already large entities, and bring them under the same flag it helps no one. That said do as you wish its your alliance I was just expressing personal opinion.
That said I have a question for you all. At what point do you say "we have enough members to PVP in Bobs domains" after all the larger wormhole corporations start to roam into null more and more because of this?

If you read what I originally wrote you will see I didnt mention anyone else BUT you. Its not all about you dude I couldnt care less what KILL does its your alliance and its your content.
As far as null, well first off again its not all about you (get that ego in check) second if a wormhole corp gets more content out of null then wormholes then you probably are to big for wormholes, that said we do null roams occasionally but most of our kills come from wormholes (September is a bad example as Chitsa has been doing these awesome WSpace vs everyone roams)
But again everyone has their own game and all of this is just my opinion Host of podcast Down The Pipe www.downthepipe-wh.com Podcast Public Channel is DTP Podcast @drverikan on twitter [email protected] |

I must be deluded by that ego of mine. Anyway, for a podcaster with a fairly big audience (I'm guessing), you're surely narrow-minded. I would have thought you folks would adopt some sort of journalistic integrity somewhere. Guess not. There are plenty of seats on the bandwagon.
what bandwagon? Host of podcast Down The Pipe www.downthepipe-wh.com Podcast Public Channel is DTP Podcast @drverikan on twitter [email protected] |

[quote=Ayeson]
Can we just decide if you guys hate HK, KILL (improperly referenced as KIWF all over this *****...if you hate us, at least get the ticker right, c'mon) or is it just the fact that our Bromance is too true and pure that gets all your panties in a twist?
[quote]
is there a third "dont care" option? this thread got derailed because of this specific thing when Mr. Fremen made that big response to everyone trying to defend KIWF.
Meh. I like people not corps or alliances. Host of podcast Down The Pipe www.downthepipe-wh.com Podcast Public Channel is DTP Podcast @drverikan on twitter [email protected] |

Yes, and I proclaim myself as King of w-space. But it does not work that way does it? I mean you just have to do simple math, for example there are 1829 Temperate Planets in Empire Space. Let say that half of those are in low sec systems, that means 914 Temperate Planets in High Sec. Even if goons are knocking down a Customs Office each hour in HS that means it will take them 38 days to knock down all Offices on just the Temperate Planets. And this is just straight up bashing, I am not even mentioning the fact that POCOs will have a 24 hour timer, that they would need to spend ISK and war dec various targets (this will also require coordination and administration), that there might be groups who will hit their POCOs in return or the fact that many of their pilots dont have sec status to tarry in high sec. That is just way too much bother for a very negligible return. And if they go after Desert Planets, lol, there are 4825 of them in Empire Space. Good luck, have fun.
Very true. But its not like they are strangers to grinding structure hitpoint amarite?
seriously though I don't imagine they will go through with it as Gnaw pointed out it doesn't seem cost effective. And goons are anything but stupid. Host of podcast Down The Pipe www.downthepipe-wh.com Podcast Public Channel is DTP Podcast @drverikan on twitter [email protected] |
