it's a non-issue. the only people who care what bob are called are bob and, predictably, goons.

Sorry but you are wrong. I don't like goons, I don't like them more than I don't like BOB/.BOB. .

It affects me because I was denied a 'name change' (all I wanted was a capital 'C') and was denied due to the rules by which everybody in the game are governed, and it applies to me because our old alliance was denied a change of 'U' to 'u' (within the first hours of creating the alliance) based on the rules by which everybody in the game are governed. Everybody it seems except BOB.

Rules are rules until a BOB incident changes them.

"Please keep in mind that the names cannot be changed after you have created the account, character or corporation so please take care what you name them."

"Player-run corporations, factions, organizations and player-owned items within the EVE Online game world are also subject to these rules and policies."

That's why I am ****ed off. THAT'S WHY.

Lol u shouldnt have posted Grimmi...

They had a ****ed director who disbanded them... They joined their alt alliance in order to keep souv in a few systems.
No big deal till then... everythings legal.

But having u guys jump up and down like Molle says isnt an Option, tbh...

There were NO, ABSOLUTLY NO reason for u guys to change the name of Kenzoku to band of Brothers Reloaded (which is even more worse then Kenzoku tbh)

U just screwed a lot of Players... A lot.

But yeahhh i think just another scandal of this dimension is what the game really really and very badly needed...

For those that are missing the clear cut issue here, unless I'm mistaken (always possible) we ended up having to fight under sov 3 conditions (jammers) in systems that wouldn't have had sov 3 yet if BoB hadn't used the shortcut taking over the Kenzoku alliance to get sov 1 immediately. They were able to use that shortcut and then later get their name changed to what they wanted (lol beave). So it's more then just a name change, it influenced sov mechanics "on the battlefield" and also broke a strict policy with years of enforcement behind it. The first one isn't that big a deal because it came with a penalty of them having to identify themselves with a name that sets young boys all a quiver, but the fact that they could then reverse it goes against all that EVE is about. Real consequences.
