This is wrong, Grimmi, KenZoku should not have been changed to BOB Reloaded.
Despite Avons case for precedence Dev blog by Oveur over incorrect name change
It actually does not apply. 4S was not offensive, and a junior gm oversteped his bounds, 4S did not benefit in sovereignty level.4S did not benefit at all only getting to keep the name they picked.
BOB used an existing alliance to keep sovereignty, and then petitions at a later date ended in the rename of that alliance.
The first step was questionable, and was in contrary to the eve guide and how sovereignty was explained to work. But the action explaination was reasonable and a change was put into the eve guide, but this second compound change which actually sets precedence in itself (both cases do infact) is just way too much to swallow.
By allowing this change, there is an underlying issue. Goons took the corp name Band of Brothers to deny it to BOB. Is this an allowed act, the above actions described by GM Grimmi say it is, but the result is that it isnt. The logic is circular, and poorly handled.

"We arranged a cage fight between a BoB GM and a goon developer, the goon lost."
I think we found a great event for this year's Fanfest.

An intention they failed at so greatly, they have been shunned by SA goons.
They did pretty good at breaking AoC, though.

Read your own fail:
If a name is deemed inappropriate...
As stupid as Kenzoku is, it's hardly innapropriate. Unless you want the name to convey some form of respect of course.

Originally by: Aetec Raa The problem is that I have yet to see a claim against BoB proven as unfounded.
But that is kinda the point, isn't it? There have loads of things that have been shown to unfounded, but no-one makes a fuss about that, they just move on to more mud slinging.
Other alliances, for example Goonswarm, have cheated - but when that is pointed out they laugh it off as the actions of individuals, whilst accusing BoB as a whole of being corrupt because of the actions of individuals.
It is understandable though. It is typical of mob (sub)culture, and it is to be expected, which is why I don't take it as seriously as they would probably like. They would claim that as arrogance or elitism, but I am better than that.

Ya, but really, what Alliance (including Goons, I dare say) doesn't have skeletons hidden away, things they don't want exposed.
At most BoB was sloppy at protecting theirs.
This issue here is, is it legitimate to honour the request for a name change from an alliance formerly known as Bob?
Exposed corruption or no - I think it hovers somewhere between: Harmless request afforded to other alliances AND BoB has managed to use generosity on the part of CCP temporarily preserve their sovereignty while benefiting from a name change that previously had been denied to others.
I know other alliances have had their requests denied. I haven't seen if anyone else has enjoyed the same benefit. For me - that will decide where I fall on the issue.

Not bad if CCP is being consistent in their application of the rules.
Does anyone know with certainty that CCP has never before renamed an Alliance under any circumstance? (I know they've denied requests, but .. have they denied all previous requests IAW that dev blog previously cited?)
