again... as I said... I WASNT rumormongering as the above poster was. I dont like being banned

You can just change the date in the URLs.

http://go-dl1.eve-files.com/media/corp/Verite/20091126.png = november 26, 2009. Easy.

That's great if you have a date in mind, less great if you want to browse through occasional entries to find an event you had in mind.

It'll work, it's just kludgy.

I do believe they tried that.... and got hammered down when the wardec costs were (totally unasked for by the corp in question) changed.

What? So you all thought you could wardec GSF, have a hisec war and win tech moons?

Here is the thing, in any war you want allies.

The more allies you have the better chance of success. The Goons have shown that not only are they very at gathering allies but they are also very good at keeping those allies within the CFC happy.

From my own personal experience and of those people I know who have flown in both the North and South is that the Goon treat their allies, friends and renters fairly well where as the guys in the south treat there allies, friends and renters like ****.

As long as this continues the CFC will continue to grow and flourish where as others like Solar, -A- will stagnate and lose members.

Then the issue of numbers comes into the argument. Any chance this might have to do with CFC members actually wanting to fight for their allies without having to be told to fight like so many others.

Until the other coalitions learn that whilst you keep treating your allies, renters, friends like **** you will never be able to beat the CFC.

At the moment as much as it pains me to say this, currently the only way I can see the CFC losing is if they turn against each other which is very unlikely.

I can see the likes of Solar and -A- turning on each other long before the CFC do.

Riiiight, cause my 250 man alliance stands a real good chance in a war for assets against the tens of thousnads of members of the CFC. Every time one of your gangs comes through we destroy it (in admittedly usually good fights), but I am not delusional enough to think we could even make a stand in a real war. You out number us 100 to 1, an some of us don't enjoy playing in TiDi.

When all 0.0 will be in the hands of Goons, well, I wonder what will be the point to play at EvE :/

The sov system is a failure as many others game's mechanics.

I am pretty sure that you rate as a failure every mechanic in this game that doesn't help you gain an advantage over the rest of the players.

Your alliance (which apparently forbids posting in EVE-Online forums) can make deals and pacts with other alliances too.

Which apparently is too much effort, thus the golden oldie excuse of CFC blobbing the crap out of anyone going against us.

no I think they thought they could ... what was it GSF said...?

Oh yeah "bring it"... but apparently CCP disagreed
Oh and that was TOTALLY unasked for by GSF too.

The GSF didn't ask for any wardec changes, in fact the only effects we see of the wardec changes are fewer evemail spam notifications of privateer alliance, the 0rphanage (except they disbanded yesterday :laffo:) etc initiating week #2347 of wardecs against us, and then proceed to do nothing but sit at jita 4-4 and cull our dumber members who haven't learned to use neutral alts yet.

I'm torn as to whether the loss of evemail spam is worth our dumber members not getting a very necessary schooling in how to travel around in hisec.

Soco being fined for talking in local?
Soco being told to shut up everytime they speak in TS?
Soco having maka whelp fleets everytime he undocks?
Soco having mandatory ops and directors chewing corps out if someone misses one?

You wonder why people don't beat GS, this is just one war and the reason they are winning is because they aren't full of ****** rules and are actually able to enjoy themselves whilst other 0.0 entities act like a dictatorship.

Once alliances start to realize treating your members like **** doesn't work they might actually be able to mount a proper offensive.

Huh?

You aren't supposed to yap in local in fleet, this far from unique to SoCo. It's more about class.
People get told to shut up in fleets, specifically if they are backdoor FCing. You want to FC put up a fleet, nothing is stopping you. Otherwise, its pretty much die quietly, follow orders and don't bump the titan.
If by whelp you mean lose ships to superior numbers.....Meh. We come out ahead in 9:10 engagements. The only BRdocs Ive seen were the Loki fleet you guys zerged 4 : 1 and C3N

What mandatory OPs? There was nothing after C3N and even I have never seen people taking attendance. It may be a corp thing, but we aren't out here to rat, if there is a CTA fleet up. I' ve never heard of attendance being taken, we are an international alliance, people have jobs NO ONE makes every CTA for a campaign.
Can we try to keep it at least slightly within reason.

cant wait till 0.0 shows all CFC lol

BoB. Respect?

Ow. My sense of irony just sprained itself.

I do believe that war declarations are not a requirement for combat in Null Sec, which is where the alliances live, no?

We don't play your game.

ahahahahaha no it isn't, not yapping in local is literally stifling fun.

I mean, have you seen all the high-class **** to come out of local? Share the wealth, man. Puff puff pass.

I hear we also got CCP to break bombs to win this war.

It wasn't open to debate; attempting to rewrite history will not erase my memory.

It also was not my intention to remind you of painful truths to offend you; sorry if that was the impression you got.

AK

jokes aside now your blob can't be countered.

And when your 300-500+ drake fleet is sitting outside of a station nothing below this numbers can get your out. Before this "fix" there was conter to blobs - SB gangs. Not it is not exists.

Was watching few days ago how some fleet undocked and started fight. Immediately you droped lots of dreads/supers/titans on it.

Local was like 750-800 and there was like 100 in RED alliance channel. I can guess 100-200 more people were from SoCo.

Just to answer to your "SoCo never undocks".... They do but not against your swarms.
