I also keep looking for the unbug capital ship arrays, or the reimburse dreadnaught button. But darn it to all I just cannot locate them. Perhaps CCP should just remove the "petition" button instead?
Look over next to the "Only reimbursed titan ever" button. I don't have one of those, but you seem to.
:edit: I'm unfamilliar with the capship array story and I don't recall us ever getting any dreads back. Sorry to burst your bubble. To be frank, I can't recall a single petition we've filed being responded to in an acceptable fashion.

Remember the day they were disbanded? I was so happy in that day, our moral was very high, their moral was so at the bottom.
Today is grate day as well, they got nailed again back to the name they hate so much looool
KenZoku, no leadership, no space, no friends, no name, no hope. (and no devs)
CCP: me like all the decent players of the internet spaceship community, appreciate the fact that you stand by your rules. i will delete my petition. tia.

but BoBR was free for them to take at that time so there was no need to petition for the change. They claim they would have disbanded again on the spot and created a new alliance called BoB had they been given the chance, so if BoBR was the name they wanted and it was free they should have created the allaince just as easily.
they didn't want BoBr, they wanted BoB back.
By what I've read, they had a choice- petition it and create a new alliance, starting at sov 0, or petition it, join an alt-alliance, and start at sov 1
tactically they made the right decision, and anyone else in the same situation would have done just that.
for some reason, they didn't get BoB, they got perhaps a #2 choice? I don't know as I'm not in BoB
If they joined the alt alliance trying to score any kind of advantage over creating a new alliance they kinda forfeit the right to have their old name back since it would been a "hand of god" act by ccp to lessen the damage of a well executed plan that stuck entirely to the current in game mechanics and was not regarded as a 'sploit.
Had they created a new alliance and then gotten the name back nothing would have changed but the name, getting a advantage and getting their name back wouldve been wrong. If ccp would have had clear policies about these things that stated that goon bob-corp was indeed wrong bob would have been able to have had their new allaince and old name back at once, had they created a new alliance and the policies being fuzzy as they are bob would have had their new alliance and perhaps their old name back(Wouldve taken longer but the endresult would have been the same and fair)

how many reimbursed MSs? carriers? dreads?
how many capships total do you think have been returned? i'd wager somewhere in the hundreds at least.
and do you know the specifics as to why it was reimbursed, or are you going by what others have said? Apparently if it's on the net, it's true.

I've been looking for that "change alliance name" button that you are refering to, since we are talking about "game mechanics". Sadly I cannot find it, could you kindly point me in the right direction?
Thx in advance!
You can disband your alliance and make a new one and if you've been wardecced then make a holding corp and create a new one using that. Yes it will cost you something unlike petitioning for a change but that is the entire point.
Or we can follow previous similar precedent and request the name to be changed, but we didn't account for the "change policy whenever they want to" deal that goons want to push but "only when it works in goons favor".
I can't find that in the players guide anywhere either... I must be really bad at finding this stuff.

I don't think "anyone in the same position" would have petitioned to get their name back like a bunch of *****es when they knew they lost it legit (and if you want to trump out precedent then the current precedent is Lotka Volterra and not Cult of War).
For example when we were getting remote doomsdayed left and right, we didn't petition to get the titans banned in case the remote doomsdays happened to be a bug in the game mechanics. We took it and in the meantime campaigned to get the mechanic changed by pointing out how ridiculous it was, and eventually it was fixed. Nothing from that was retro-actively replaced by CCP.
LV dissolved, it was not done by the actions of a largely-inactive director who did it on a whim.
and your example of not petitioning a remote DD- which was an intentional feature, i.e. placed in the game to do that... don't compare it to what boils down to an overlooked loophole in alliance security.
I used it as an example of how you should have handled this situation. Also I'm pretty sure CCP has gone on record for saying that the extent to which remote doomsdays were abused was something that they had not foreseen. Whereas your assumption that what happened here was some "overlooked loophole" is still completely baseless. Even if it had been though, the way to go about it would be to man up and try to get it changed instead of crying to CCP to get its effects changed retro-actively. |

You say this first as someone looking in hindsight, second as someone never in that situation.
Quote: Had they created a new alliance and then gotten the name back nothing would have changed but the name, getting a advantage and getting their name back wouldve been wrong. If ccp would have had clear policies about these things that stated that goon bob-corp was indeed wrong bob would have been able to have had their new allaince and old name back at once, had they created a new alliance and the policies being fuzzy as they are bob would have had their new alliance and perhaps their old name back(Wouldve taken longer but the endresult would have been the same and fair)
In my opinion thou
however, changing from Kenzuko to BoBr was only a name, and a dumber one at that. This whole dramafest was completely unnecessary, when you look at it. Nothing has changed at all but a name, ken still has sov 3. so all this whining was for absolutely nothing except that ex-bob has a less idiotic name now.
And, had they lost all sov and had CCP give them BoB back, I can ASSURE you that the threadnaughts would have been going strong.

Zero to my knowledge. I don't really care why it was reimbursed. I didn't say a thing about the cause. Nor did the person I was responding to. I'll give you a hint, it wasn't you.

This is a sandbox. There's some weird **** you can pull in this game or have been able to in the past and BOB is no stranger to this. Don't be a ***** about it though when it happens to you. |

There was no similar precedent. You can repeat it all day long, but that will not make it true. No alliance has ever before been disbanded in this fashion. CoW is the only other one I am aware of to have had their name changed and they had to reform to do so. I also believe THAT was the wrong thing to do. This "precedent" you are referring to is actually the long history of CCP refusal to change alliance names.

Hey guys MY WIFE
Surprising as it may seem, sometimes adults use the interweb, and sometimes when a boy adult and a girl adult like each other very much they get married.
Although, to be fair, mostly I did it for tax reasons. Unfortunately only a month later the married couple's tax allowance was scrapped. Pfft.
