It was a day of great treachery and violence. A day the heathen showed exactly what he was made of. The day was 06.10.110 when the Armada of the Elders invaded Bleaklands and Kor-Azor space. Then another heathen force invaded the space over Sarum Prime.
The unprovoked acts of violence continued as the Minmatar struck the peaceful Amarrians on several fronts. But in the heat of battle the unlikely appearance of a Royal Heir would turn the fortunes of an empire reeling from Minmatar treachery.
Suddenly Amarr stood victorious over Sarum Prime. The heathen Elder fleet left in ruins at the now legendary Battle of Mekhios. Eventually the heathen Minmatar were forced to flee our holy empire as Amarr won the day. But many Amarr had fallen.
What could've caused such destruction of Minmatar forces? How did the Amarr turn the tide of battle? In the days after the Battle of Mekhios there was much speculation of a new super-weapon fired from the Abbadon of the now Empress Jamyl I. To this day many Amarrians, myself included, simply refer to this unknown weapon as The Hand of God. For what else could've left a Minmatar fleet in ruins in such a manner but the intervention and power of God blessing His faithful with victory.
That was two years ago. In the time since the battle has raged on as never before. The empire formed the 24th Imperial Crusade Amarr Militia while the Minmatar formed their own forces. Battles over the two years have raged across both empires and unclaimed space between. Systems have fallen from one side to the other and back again while all the major empires have battled.
In that time many have died, many have been wounded and all have been affected by what has happened. Still today the Amarr are stronger then ever and our resolve has not faltered. While battles have been won and lost, systems have changed hands multiple times, friends have perished and material items destroyed our faith in God, the Amarr Empire and our holy mission has only been made stronger.
While the battle rages on we now take a moment to notice where we came from and what we have accomplished. On Sunday, June 13, 112 at 17:00 evetime a MEMORIAL RALLY will be held in the Grand Cathedral of Amarr Emperor Station in Amarr. This event will fulfill the solemness of a religious service, the celebration of a victory ceremony and all the emotions in between. I invite all loyal to the Amarr Empire to this event which will honor both those who have perished and those who have served. We will mark the second anniversary of the return of the now Empress Jamyl I with prayer for our fallen, our comrades and our future.
All who are loyal to the empire are encouraged to attend. The inpod channel for this event will be announced in this thread the morning of the event. The event will start at 17:00 evetime promptly and will feature prayer, guest speakers and some special surprises. Those not able to attend in Amarr directly will have full access via inpod communications via a remote link so you will be able to participate even if outside the Domain region.
God Bless Amarr, the Empress Jamyl I and those who serve the empire.

Maybe we get a Thrasher fleet up to give some Minmatar Militia reminder of that day? That our wreath is coming over you as long as you poision our people with Vitoc, poision our souls with your ill religion and racist propaganda and put our naturally born freedom under the whip and the shackles of slavery.
May the sky above those worlds burn again, burn, burn, burn. As long as a single Matari is held as a slave in the Empire. -- FREEDOM, PUNK & AUTOCANNONS

, really? Let it go. You know every time you "save" a matari slave, another matari dies in the process one way or another. Allow me to put it into perspective for you and your brethren. The Elder fleet came, and stole a large amount of our property, i.e slaves. In return, at the time, Jamyl Sarum, annihilated the Elder super capital fleet, thus destroying more matari lives than what was actually saved.
What you need to do, is be grateful for what matari lives you dont have in slavery, and forget about the ones that Amarr has. They aren't minmatar anymore. They don't acknowledge your republic, your tribal nature, and the majority don't even know your history or some cases or current existence.
There is no justice is ripping them from their lives now and bringing them back to... where ever you plan on bringing them back to. Taking them now, would be just the same as when Amarrians showed up all those years ago and started capturing matari.
Let it go, and save more lives.

A given that Epitoth Fleet Yards and it's Guard will be present.
Last year around this time I organised an event to remember the lives lost during this war and sadly little has changed since. I delivered a speech on how bravely the militia of all sides has fought and gave my respects to all sides.
This year I will be personally delivering a short speech on the events of the last two years and how they have effected Amarr loyalists and our relationships.

The inpod channel for the Rally is: AMARR CATHEDRAL
The rally will begin at 17:00 evetime today.
Scheduled are three official speakers along with openings for several guest speakers. Those who wish to make comments during the service should send me an evemail with a description of what you'd like to discuss. This is the only way to be placed on the schedule.
The rally will be held inside the Grand Cathedral in Amarr Emperor Station. Please be docked in station by 16:55 so you can make your way up to the cathedral before it begins. Those who are unable to be present in the cathedral due to other obligations are most welcome to join the official channel for the event and monitor it from your inpod location. I am told this option is available throughout the eve cluster.
This is a solemn day and while we honor those who fell we also honor those who perservered. It is my desire that this rally remain non-political and non-confrontatial between all who attend as supporters of Amarr. We are here to honor the fallen and offer thanks and prayers for those who still fight n the side of the Amarr Empire. That is the focus today.

Ahhh, Koro...I believe your fall from grace is now complete. I had hoped you would find your way back to the Empire, but now you have burned that bridge and urinated on the blackened remnants of the support pylons.
You have been one step forward and five steps back for some time, but this settles it for me.
May you burn on the bosom of the petty and small individuals you have taken sides with against the Empire... "To bring order to chaos, one must bring chaos to its knees."

Here is what happened at the rally:
Originally by: Archbishop Greetings brothers and sisters of Amarr, friends of the Amarr Emipre and loyal supporters of the Empress Jayml. Two years ago this week the peaceful Amarr Empire lived in harmony with others. Our borders were secure, our mission of enlightenment was proceeding. That all changed one day. Reports came in of fighting in Kor Azor, in the mandate then finally a heathen elder fleet appeared in Sarum Prime.
That fleet brought death and destruction to the innocent Amarrian people.
That fleet stole the property of Amarr and also stole the opportunity of enlightnment for the slaves they "freed".
Thousands upon millions perished that day throughout the empire.
Yet on that day something happend. Like a Phoenix rising from the flames the Amarr Empire recovered.
As the Elder Fleet bombarded from above Mekhios a small squad of Imperial class Amarrian Battleships appeared.
Led by one who would later be identified as the royal heir Jamyl of Sarum Prime. Her small force of loyalist forces took aim with some sort of weapon.
A weapon many of us call "The Hand of God" for it's unknown even today.
What is known though is the result of this one weapon.
The complete and utter destruction of the Elder fleet. Amarr was saved.
The tide of battle turned that day and eventually Amarrian forces led to victory.
After that we had the coronation of the now Empress Jamyl I and Amarr has continued at war ever since.
The 24th imperial crusade has fought valiantly agaisnt the enemies of God.
But it all started at Mekhios.
Those who perished that day were the first warriors of this "new war" that would engulf Amarr.
Today we come together for two things. To honor those who perished that day fighting for Amarr and to honor those who persevered and have fought on.
In the two years since that day systems have been won and lost and won again. Corporations have moved in and out of the militia and back in. Some have joined and supported Amarr in other ways from afar.
But the one constant from day one has been the support of the loyal citizens of our empire and it's loyalist organizations.
The support of God and Empire we all feel in our hearts.
Today we honor those who fell and those who perservered.
Recently the tide of battle turned again in Amarr favor.
Forces of the Amarr Militia have regained ground once lost.
Today I am honored to call Dantalus Portos to speak. He is a member of one of the most successful militia corporations of late.
He is a fine citizen and a good man.
Legatus Portos.
Originally by: Dantalus Portos
From Darkness, comes light.
The light of our Empress transcends the darkness of those that raise arms against us.
May His will and Her light guide us.
May His will and Her light strengthen us.
May His will and Her light unite noble loyalist forces to find co-operation.
Our cause is great. Our determination is unparalleled. Our power is overwhelming.
On behalf of the 1st Praetorian Guard and all those that are true and loyal to the Empire...
Amarr Victor!
The crowd responded by shouting out "Amarr Victor!" at the top of their lungs.
Dulce et decorum est pro imperium mori.

Thank you Legatus Portos.
Please rise for a reading of holy scripture: "For forty millenniums we struggled in the desert. Time of infinity to grief our misgivings. Time of eternity to stray without God's guidance. One can repent and pray for forgiveness. But true meekness is one that has penetrated and laid its roots in the very heart of a man. The stars above will not weep for us parting. The air we breathe won't notice our disappearance. The dirt of the earth will embrace our decadence. Only in God can we thrive and grow. Only God." The Scriptures, Kuria 4:23
Amen.
The congregation at this replied replied with "Amen."
Originally by: Archbishop
While many have fought directly in the Amarr militia for God there are others.
To the south our good friends of the CVA held the Providence region for many years.
Successfully creating a place where pilots could live in relative safety free from the heathen and the pirate.
Our friends in the CVA helped supply Amarrian corporations with tactical and material support the last two years. In return the forces of Amarr helped CVA on occasion with operations.
It is our desire to see all Amarrian forces grow in their relationships with one another.
I am pleased to recognize Rorin Cutter.
A former CVA diplomat, who has asked to say a few words.
Originally by: Rorin Cutter
Good day everyone, some of you may know me, and some might not.
I have spent much time in the last years trying my best to live up to the legend of those brave pilots who on this day two years ago did there best and gave there all to protect the Empire from the heathen invasion.
Of course they sacrificed themselves and paid the ultimate price, and in there memory I would like to say, thank you!
At the same time, I would like to say a short prayer in memory of those that have fallen in both that invasion and the invasion from the terrorists in Providence.
These are dark times for many, but I believe that God through the Empress is our guiding light!
The word of the Lord is pure,It is a shield for the faithful,Brought unto men by the Angels,As a guiding light in the darkness "- The Scriptures, Book of the Prophet Anoyia, 8:15
Oh God Bless the fallen in your name! Give us Victory oh Lord; we beseech you for victory against your enemies!
For we are your people, your retribution incarnate, and your angels of vengeance, and we will overcome in your name! Amarr Victor Brothers and Sisters!
To which the crowd responded with "Amarr Victor"

Originally by: Rodj Blake
Thank you Archbishop.
And thank you to the Star Fraction mole who is kindly relaying this service to the masses in Amarr - you are saving Archbishop a job!
I would like to talk today about service, and the difficult decisions that we need to make to carry it out.
Two years ago, Jamyl Sarum returned to the Empire and defeated the Elders at Mekhios.
Since then, all of us who are loyal to the Empire have had to make some difficult decisions about the nature of our service.
Those of us who have been fighting for Amarr for many years have in recent times been joined by some pilots with a less than savoury reputation - pirates, heretics, thieves. I'm sure you all can all think of some examples.
We have at times therefore been forced to choose whether or not to support them.
I shall return to that shortly, but before I do I should inform you that PIE was recently approached by an alliance that by it's very nature is hostile to the Empire. They informed us that they were preparing an attack on one of our enemies. We had to decide whether or not to side with them.
I think that the words of one of my fellow Admirals sums up our decision quite nicely:
"So enemies of Amarr, terrorist mercenaries and supporters of the Tyrant Shakor are all trying to kill each other. Good. They all deserve to burn. No Praetorian is to offer cooperation or support to either side."
That is essentially the attitude that has kept PIE true to its founding principles for a very long time.
Unlike many of our opponents who will shamelessly throw aside their principles when it is expedient to do so, we do not subscribe to the belief that the enemy of our enemy is automatically our friend.
We have often found that it is better to allow two sets of enemies to tear each other apart like the dogs they are rather than to get involved.
And so it is that we return to those unsavoury groups who claim to fight for Amarr.
I say let them do so.
Let them die for us.
But in saying so, I should point out that whilst PIE will not prevent them and the Shakorites from tearing into each other, we will not provide them with assistance either.
We will fight the war according to our principles, not theirs. Their past sins are still sins for at least until they seek atonement for them, and whilst we may share a militia with sinners we will not ally ourselves with them.
For without our principles, we are nothing and this is a war of one set of principles against another.
The principles of faith, justice and civilisation that underpin Amarrian society against the principles of sin, anarchy and barbarism that our enemies support.
We will not win the war by abandoning our principles - and so we won't.
Rather, we shall acheive victory by remaining true to our Amarrian heritage.
We shall use the the shield of faith to protect us from our enemies and the sword of justice to smite them.
We shall win.
Amarr Victor.
Once more the chamber echoed with cries of "Amarr Victor"

Grr flickered onto a large viewscreen for all to see.
Originally by: Grr
My apologies for not being there in person but business keeps me busy
Thank you Archbishop.
A year ago it fell to myself to help lead a fleet into the republic where Amarr loyalist forces delivered speeches reflecting a year of war and lives lost.
The event was of course an outstanding success but despite our flag of peace, the fleet was shot at by republic navy forces, terrorists and pirates.
It left a bitter taste in my mouth to deliver words of how bravely all sides had fought while under fire from those who we took time to visit and give our respects to.
This year IÆm pleased to see Archbishop step forward to organize this memorial and have offered him my full support.
In keeping with this change of location however and with last yearÆs experiences in mind IÆll not focus on the enemy and instead speak how the war has affected Amarr loyalists.
While last year our fleet sent 1000 freedom fighters to their deaths with our energy weapons, this year I will try and temper the loyalist here with the weapons of words.
Unlike Rodj and others here I am no wordsmith, most here have come to respect the ideas I try to convey. So much so that not long ago I was voted ôAmarr Loyalist of the Yearö by many of you so IÆd like to think at least some listen to me.
I must warn you that my words today may offend some but I only offer the truth and say these words out of love for you and our Empire...
The past two years I have seen a major failure to communicate between the Amarr loyalist paramilitary corps.
I have seen pilots argue in our intel channels about what they name their ship, all the while our forces were under attack.
I have seen entire loyalist fleets slaughtered because they could not work together.
This must stop.
The issue of piracy has reared its ugly head a number of times causing conflict among loyalists that used to work so well together.
How do you define a pirate? Does a nullsec alliances NRDS policy have a place in the warzone? These are important questions but when they drive a wedge between brothers, they become pointless.
IÆm pleased to say that after many incidents and arguments things have calmed down a bit between us all. The problems still exist however and should not be ignored.
Now is perhaps a good time for CVA to review its militia war polices and perhaps a good time for old loyalist corps such as 1st Praetorian Guard and PIE Inc to work together harder than ever before.
There is also this myth that direct involvement in the war is the be all and end all of being loyal to the Empire. This is simply a fallacy as a number of corps and alliances work hard to protect or develop the Empire in their own ways.
ItÆs not all negative however. There have clearly have been some successes such as the ôconfido,ö a group of like-minded Amarr corps whose goal is to win the war yet upkeep a set of standards while doing so.
Recently weÆve seen them really drive forward the war effort working hard to help achieve our victories and so I can only offer my thanks for their efforts.
On other fronts the Caldari Militia have done extremely well because of one important reason: cooperation.
Perhaps the Amarr militia can learn a lot from our allies here.
IÆm entirely confident that if we can swallow our pride, work together as brothers weÆll see the end of this war a lot sooner.
It would be fantastic to see in one year from now the Amarr bloc celebrating a victory at this time and cooperation is key to achieving it.
I leave you a small piece of scripture to contemplateà
"Surround yourself with the faithful, Stand together, for there is no strength like it under the heavens."
Thank you for listening.
Again, the assembled loyalists shouted "Amarr Victor"
Dulce et decorum est pro imperium mori.

Originally by: Archbishop
I would like to close with a piece of scripture - please rise.
Which test reveals more of the soul - the test that a man will take to prove his faith. or the test that finds the man who believed his faith already proven?...
...If you know this answer, then you also know which of these challenges bear the greatest penalty for failure...
...The gates of paradise will open for you one time only; woe to the soul who dares to knock twice.
Remember these words brothers and sisters and other friends of Amarr. Do not even for a moment leave the path.
Though the road may be difficult, may have agnoy and loss, may have pain and suffering, if it is the road of God it must be followed.
Do not take the easy way out or indulge in personal desires and pleasures.
There is work to do. We must all do it.
In any capacity you can, some mine, some build, some fight and some conquer.
We all serve Amarr and God and our work is not yet finished.
Now a prayer.
Lord God of Amarr. Continue to watch over the Amarr Empire and bring your wisdom to our Empress Jamyl I. Guide her hand as she leads us to victory over the heathen and salvation in your realm...
...Give us the strength to support you as we should. ...Give us the truth as you always have as our weaopn agaisnt tyranny and evil. ...Give us the courage to put aside personal dispute and petty differences and the ability to rise together as one massive army of God to smite the heathens.
We humbly ask you give us these things in your name. For we are your humble servants.
Amen.
As tradition dictates, the crowd responded with Amens of their own.
Originally by: Archbishop Thank you for attending. But before you go. I have a surprise. The loyalist organization ZERO HEAVY INDUSTRIES and PIE Inc have donated some ships to be distributed to attendees. You have all been secretly assigned numbers based on your order in the chatwindow on the right
Of course terrorists and enemies of Amarr are not eligible for prizes.
The first number is 8. Derek Schaeffer. You are awarded an Armageddon Battleship. Use it well against enemies of the Empire and God
However, Derek Schaeffer declined to accept his prize, saying "Keep it. Perhaps use it to live up to your high words and fight the enemy at our doorstep. I am sorry, I cannot sit here any longer." At this point he departed from the ceremony along with members of the Khanid Provinical Vanguard corporation.
Silas Vitalia had the following to say:
Originally by: Silas Vitalia Let's away, these words of Amarr Victor ring most hollow considering the war targets nearby. Call us when you people are serious about ther real threats.
Archbishop continued:
Originally by: Archbishop
The second number is 10.
Eliana Narai.
Use this apocalypse battleship to strike fear inito the hearts of the heathens.
Upon acepting her ship, Eliana Narai saluted and said "I am honoured, Admiral."
Originally by: Archbishop
The third number is 12. Greyon. Use this apocalypse to destroy heathens!
The next number is 20. Liamn Use this Apocalypse against those who would rob us of our way of life.
The final number is 28 - Sten Mattson. This Abaddon was built by my own factories. Use it well.
Liamn thanked Archbishop and humbly accepted his vessel. Greyon said simply "I am honored." Sten Mattson expressed similar sentiments.
At that point, and amidst congratulatory shouts and cries of "Amarr Victor", Archbishop finished proceedings with "This concludes the rally of rememberance."

Edited by: Jakiin on 17/06/2010 18:00:51 I retain, as always, some repect for PIE. That they decided to include our comments speaks either to their honour or their political sense, both good qualities though it's difficult to tell which is displayed.
However, that respect is somewhat tarnished. I have had disagreements with PIE in the past over their preferred tactic of "Ignoring the issue and hoping it goes away", and now the corporation which I represent here does as well.
Whilst the people of PIE sat inside and spoke at great length of the glories of God's Empire, the very enemies of that empire sat outside and crowed their heresies to the Heavens. And what recourse was offered? None. PIE continued on, ignoring them despite the fact that between them and ourselves (Whom the Fraction had also declared war upon) we had the firepower to clear them from His domain.
No member of the Vanguard recieved any requests for a joint purging from PIE. No sign was made that PIE had any intention of lifting a finger to remove this stain from their own event. Had we believed they would, we ourselves would have made contact. But as the ceremony continued and the 'surprise' turned out not to be that PIE was going to mount some sort of offense against the Fractioneers, but rather that they were going to give door prizes, we knew there was little chance of that.
When Guardsman Schaeffer recieved the first ship, he spoke what was on his mind. What was, of course, on all our minds in the Vanguard and I dare say on those of a few others gathered there. Milady added her own words, which of course Archbishop treated with the same tactic PIE was treating the Fractioneers: Ignore it and keep with the schedule.
The Khanid Provincial Vanguard, as a whole, now begins to question PIE's effectiveness in the Reclamation. While they were once a great ally in that cause, and arguably are responsible for more good than any other Amarr corporation in that regard. However in the present all they seem to do is what they have done here: Talk of glories past.
The glories of the past are smeared by the insults in the present which PIE does not refute adequately. Such is the shame. * Jakiin Torash Holder Heir of the Kingdom Chief Diplomatic Officer

PIE has always been serious about combating real threats to the Empire and the Amarrian way of life.
It's why we not only belong to the militia but also have a track record of maintaining wars against a number of targets.
However, the Star Fraction are a long way from providing such a threat.
If the Khanid Provinicial Vanguard wishes to co-operate with PIE in the future, I suggest that discussing such matters privately in a calm and rational manner rather then throwing public hissy-fits is the way to do it.

Brother Jakiin,
I believe a moment of remembrance is intended for warriors fighting a continual war to not focus on killing, but to focus on the costs of war, our losses, instead.
During the ceremony I was completely prec-occupied with the losses my own family suffered during the attack on Mekhios. My grief was to intense to even think of monitoring other channels during the ceremony and I certainly not to shout with enthousiasm about the glories of the Empire.
At the conclusion of the ceremony I undocked and visited Mekhios itself for a private moment of remembrance there, shared with ms. Dougans. I ignored the enemies I encounter and only after honoring the dead and my ancestors properly would I start to think of war. I will not let my enemies dictate my timetable if at all possible.
Which leads me to what I believe is an oversight in Vanguard intelligence. I don't believe sufficient firepower was available. Besides mutual hostiles in the Star Fraction, of which some were waiting one system beyond Amarr to hide their true strength, I counted a significant number of ships only hostile to PIE. These ships were fitted for sniping and carried copious amounts of Radar ECM. It is my estimation that a engagement right outside the station would likely have resulted in a bloodbath.
I can only say that the Star Fraction chose an excellent time for their momentary war declaration. Either they would defile the moment of remembrance by spilling the blood of thousands of loyal crew or they would defile it by defaming the Empire on public channels during the ceremony. In short: a win-win situation.
The biggest impact on me during the ceremony was made by admiral Grr, who spoke in length about a subject I would suggest the Vanguard study it at more length. ____

I am sure you know as well as anyone the power of words. Though the Fractioneers have long erred on the side of quantity rather than quality, their ability to appear unchallenged in the heart of the Empire, at the heart of one of your own events, deals as much damage to the Empire as any battle fleet.

We have no such intentions towards PIE at the current time. Our opinion was made public by your own transcription, and so we felt the need to elaborate. Deride this if you will, but if this is a 'hissy fit' then your response is blind arrogance.

Your actions, Lord Merdaneth, are not on what I speak. I speak on those of PIE, an organization to which you no longer belong and so my issues with them are not directed at yourself.

This is the root of your problem. Entirely too much discussion and bold pronouncements of glory.
How much better, how much more constructive to your cause, had things gone a different route?
You knew exactly when, and you knew exactly where, a hated and foul enemy would appear, and that they would do so at a time and place of your own choosing.
The Anarchists are easily and predictably drawn to these public events, as we have seen time and time again. What better opportunity to plan ahead and smash them, to shut their mouths on hallowed ground in front of everyone? A mighty blow directly to their inflated egos.
What God fearing servant of the Lord could refuse such an opportunity? We are none of us numerous enough by ourselves, but together, we could surely overpower them. Instead of donating ships as door prizes, donate the money for a single day of CONCORD sanctioned warfare to each corporation in attendance, to coincide with the ceremony. Now, instead of our enemies facing a dozen ships, they have 3 or 4 times that amount to contend with.
Win OR lose, the honor and glory would be yours, for showing some backbone, and initiative in the face of such odds.
This is the spark and will to fight against the Godless and Degenerate that all Amarr should share, and that we did not see at your event.
Shameful.

I'd say the dozens of SF wartargets outside the station during your event proved otherwise.
The Star Fraction has a long history of being attention whxres who seek the spotlight. This isn't the first time they've declared war during some event sponsored by the Amarr loyalists and I'm sure it won't be the last. Much like the I-RED hosted memorial in Malkalen all they're concerned about is the next headline.
Given recent clear evidence by the Amarr Empire that they don't think of the Star Fraction as any kind of a threat why should we as Amarr loyalists consider them such? After all the Minmatar Militia and Gallente Militia are fired upon when they enter Amarrian space, the Star Fraction meanwhile sets up offices in Amarrian stations and puts factory facilities on Amarrian planets. The Amarrian Empire obviously considers them to be nothing thus we shall do the same.
Anyone can declare war on someone else. That does not make them a credible enemy. The fact the Star Fraction has long cherry picked enemies both among the militia and otherwise while ignoring the larger scope of war by not declaring everyone shows they're more interested in headlines and padding kill numbers. Why should we oblige them?
I must say Silas you operate from a flawed assumption. The assumption that anyone cares what the Star Fraction does. Clearly the fact they would declare war the day before the event then undeclare it 10 minutes after it ended proves they're hardly worthy of attention. Instead they sat around for a couple hours, wasted time, spouted off in local while being drowned out by local sellers and spammers and generally accomplished nothing. Then they dropped the war and fled 10 minutes after the event ended.
I am curious about something though so I'm glad you brought up the Star Fraction. I recall when Daisho Syndicate was a potential war target there was a vote among the Star Fraction membership to declare war. I recall Jade wasn't happy it was a "no" vote but the majority ruled. I wonder what the vote was to declare war on PIE? After all I find it hard to believe that logical members of the Star Fraction would want to waste time with a two hour war. Obviously a war they weren't to serious about engaging in considering they retracted it 10 minutes after the event started. What was the final vote to declare war on PIE? I'd be very interested in knowing.
Quote: What God fearing servant of the Lord could refuse such an opportunity? We are none of us numerous enough by ourselves, but together, we could surely overpower them. Instead of donating ships as door prizes, donate the money for a single day of CONCORD sanctioned warfare to each corporation in attendance, to coincide with the ceremony. Now, instead of our enemies facing a dozen ships, they have 3 or 4 times that amount to contend with.
I'll tell you what kind of God fearing servant could refuse.
- One who doesn't care about the Star Fraction and their antics.
- One who has no desire to play along with their desired script to make headlines.
- One who was focused on the event at hand which you'll recall was a solemn memorial service and celebration of perserverence.
Just in case the math wasn't apparent to you the Star Fraction declared war just before the event was scheduled to begin (24 hours earlier). Thus there was no time to rally huge forces and declare war within the minimum 24 hour requirement.
We set the event as a memorial. We didn't set it to "trap" someone to get some easy kills. If you thought that was the reason you obviously weren't there for the right reason and you clearly didn't hear the message of prayer and rememberence.

The fact he arranged the memorial inside a station demonstrates he's terrified of his enemies. The fact he dared not undock when confronted by those enemies demonstrates he's a cowardly worm. Neither of these facts gives him much right to say the words "Amarr Victor" with a straight face.

As I've said elsewhere, PIE vessels engage in combat with enemies of the Empire every day.
Prove yourself a threat to the Empire, and maybe we'll move you up our priority list. I'm not going to hold my breath though. In seven years you've not really affected Amarr.
Now, if KPV or anyone else feels that they could do a better job of fighting for the Empire than PIE, and that defending the Empire involves fighting with SF, then they're more than welcome to do so.

Resurrecting a nearly month old thread to try and divert the publics attention from the fact your alliance is falling apart and your most active members are leaving isn't really an effective tactic when you've been completely exposed.
As Rodj says if you consider yourself a threat to the empire you should prove it. I can only assume the fact the Amarrian navy doesn't fire on you, you're allowed to dock at Amarr stations and even setup on Amarrian planets means the Amarr Empire considers you a "NOTHING" or a "ZERO" on the threat scale. Where the Minmatar militia are well recognized enemies you are kind of a "hanger on" with your selective wardecs, one day wars and rampant publicity efforts. If the empire views you as a "NOTHING" we must also. As for KPG I could care less what they think of you. Our memorial was a solemn event and nothing more. Not a "trap" to lure you into, not an effort to gain publicity, not something nefarious or twisted, it was just a memorial. It was 100% successful, went off exactly as planned, we had excellent speakers and participation. We honored the dead and those who serve against the Minmatar heathens. I am quite pleased with the entire event.
Like I said previously though hiding behind month old threads isn't going to concel the fact your alliance is falling apart and people in Providence held a meeting and wanted you out. Feel free to dredge up some more old threads if you like it won't change the facts.

Perhaps you need to look at the poster again for the memorial service. The Cathedral is inside the station thus that is where the memorial was held.
Once again the Star Fraction seeks to take something that happens and lie about it in an effort to make themselves look "victorious". I recall one time they accused a militia corp of not fielding battleships to fight them. Never mind the militia corp was using frigates because thats what was called for in militia complexes, the Star Fraction took "credit" for it. It's kind of like taking credit for the sun coming up in the morning. It's going to happen anyway so you might as well try to get some PR value from it.
In this case the memorial was held inside the Cathedral as scheduled. As for not "confronting enemies" I'd have to consider the Star Fraction a worthy enemy of the Amarr Empire to do that. I don't. They're obvious attention *****s who do whatever they can to get publicity to feed their executors gigantic ego. Given they declared war an hour before the memorial and cancelled it 10 minutes after it ended clearly indicates they never considered themselves an "enemy" at all and were simply looking for another newsflash like the one they got in Malkalen. To bad they left humiliated and disappointed having wasted time because their leader wanted another ego boost.
The memorial was a wonderful experience. It was a 100% success and given the successes of the Amarr militia in campaigns against the Minmatar militia I certainly am quite happy to say AMARR VICTOR! Clearly the Star Fraction executor is desperate for any type of PR victory and will take credit for a planet orbiting the sun if she can. Anything for a "victory". Anything to try and hide the fact her most active pilots and commanders have abandoned the alliance and the locals in Providence want her out. Yes I can see how desperate she really is given what's happened.

You really haven't gotten over that trial verdict have you. Still, I'll repeat. If you are so convinced we're a shadow of our former selves its probably time for you to test us. After all, you've alleged SF is falling apart so many times pure random chance suggests you'll be right once.

Like I said you'd have to be an enemy of the Amarr Empire to even get my notice. Instead as you dock at Amarrian stations, fly by Amarrian Navy ships without any action by them, setup industry on Amarrian planets and generally fly around like an average person I have to conclude the enemy considers you completely irrelevant. Thus so do I.
Given your wardec wasn't even a few hours it's pretty clear you sought attention and publicity and nothing more. Unable to disrupt our event and become a "headliner" you resort to taking credit for the sun rising (us holding the memorial inside a cathedral) and do whatever you can to mask the humiliation of your failure to interupt a sacred service for those who perished. Sorry to disappoint you.
As for your alliance falling apart we've seen this before. I'm sure you'll eventually get a new crop of anarchist rookies, you'll brainwash them and they'll fight with you for awhile, then they'll up and leave when they realize what you're like. It's happened before and it'll happen again. I'm sure just like the Stimulus guys who left your group and now speak negatively about you we'll eventually see this from some of the more honest DX4 pilots.

Those were the Stimulus pilots you praised for seeing the light up until the point they corp-thefted your allies in Aegis Militia right? Seriously. Corps come and go from alliances, more news at 11. You conveniently ignored the DX4 pilot who told you precisely why they left on the other thread.
Still, lucky we don't report on every PIE pilot who has left your cause disgusted at your inability to undock to fight war enemies isn't it? Would be quite a long list.

go on and try to cause some damage to The Star Fraction and you can see first hand how "falling apart" adding another whole alliance has been.

Originally by: Archbishop
It was a day of great treachery and violence. A day the heathen showed exactly what he was made of.
The unprovoked acts of violence continued as the Minmatar struck the peaceful Amarrians on several fronts. But in the heat of battle the unlikely appearance of a Royal Heir would turn the fortunes of an empire reeling from Minmatar treachery.
Archbishop - you note that the Battle of Mekhois was a day of great violence, and treachery, and it was. But you imply the violence and treachery belonged solely to the Minmtar who invaded the Bleaklands and Kor-Azor space. You omit any mention of our own sins.
In holding the Minmatar responsible, you make it seem like paradise was over-run by vermin, but that faithful Amarr played no part, were innocent and were not responsible. You make it seem like the appearance of Lady Jamyl I was without controversy. You also make it seem like the Amarr Empire was innocent and without division, that somehow we were the ones wronged in all of this.
You are wrong. Such an attitude demonstrates the mindset of a blind and proud generation. Your position does not appear to understand either the mind of God or our history; which is always a dangerous thing for an Archbishop. So let me remind you:
Prior to the Battle of Mekhois, the Empire was ruled by godless men engaged in godless practices and unspeakable sins Chamberlain Karsoth was practising the heresy of Sani Sabik as Imperial high representative of the celestial court and supreme authority in the Amarr Empire, and holding orgies within the Imperial holy places. His sin was not alone.
Even after the initial attack on Amarr territories, we remained blind to our faults. For example, we rejoiced when Lady Sarum revealed that she had survived Imperial succession as a Holder, yet Imperially we continued the exile of King Khanid for surviving his own Imperial succession, as once, fifth Holder. What hypocrisy! It was we who were a sinful generation.
The attacks against us were our wake up call. It was us we who were faithless and godless. While many assume the Amarr empire was at its zenith, it was actually at its nadir. Accordingly, it was God who allowed the heathen to have power over us; it was God who willed it to happen. The power shown by the invading heathens was not their own. It was not they who were responsible for the Battle of Mekhois. IT WAS US. They were merely the instruments of punishment, wielded by the divine hand of a righteous God.
The Empire has begun to turn itself around. Thankfully, Lady Jamyl, now Empress, has been a good leader. She has stood against the godless, who had been appointed to punish us. Turning back God's wrath, she chased them out of the empire. She has rightfully shown sympathy to the plight of King Khanid II and invited him to resume his position on the council. Let us hope she takes that one step further and re-established House Khanid as a Holder line again. She has done many things of acclaim including facilitating the spreading of our one true faith, where it has not been before, even into the ranks of former dis-believing slaves and those who would have invaded us.
But let us not think - that this healing is done.
If we are going to hold a memorial rally to remember the Battle of Mekhois, let us certainly remember the fallen of that dark day, but let us not hold the Minmatar responsible for a responsibility that is solely ours, or credit them with a power they did not have of their own accord. convo me to get rid of any un-wanted T2 BPOS |

Finally some confirmation of what we've always known. The Star Fraction Pirate Coalition is officially acknowledged as being a fact. It's good to see the Star Fraction is no longer going to try and "hide" their true identities and instead are open and accepting of the understanding that they are indeed pirates who have only used "anarchy" as an excuse for violence. In the past we've seen them ally with pirates only to claim "we don't support piracy". Now with this official coalition there will be no more need for them to try and hide their true selves.
Thank you Tomahawk Bliss for that confirmation.

Nothing has been confirmed here except that Archbishop's command of the facts is as shaky as his command of anything other than a cloaking Bestower.
The Amarrian nationalist definition of 'pirate' really doesn't mean anything anymore. Not that it has had a meaning other than 'people we don't like' for many years.

On the contrary, as an entity weakens it's not at all unlikely that it would consider its allies more valuable than ever.

Ah. This would be the explanation for the CVA allying with pirates lately. It is useful to get an Amarr loyalist insight into this issue, even though it does no more than confirm conclusions already drawn from simple observation.
Thank you, Rodj Blake, for that confirmation that the CVA's alliance with various piratical entities is a sign of its weakness and desperation.
Of course, I take it to be such a confirmation by your standards because that is what the logic of PIE 'Spiritual Director' Archbishop would have it be and I am sure you do not disagree with his logic.
Or is it perhaps that his logic is only to be applied to enemies? I would hope not because that would make you, what is the word? Ah, yes, hypocrites. That would be truly shocking.

AS we've been quite occupied with several CONCORD-Sanctioned police actions in the Kingdom, we've temporarily shelved this issue for the duration of our current campaign. Temporarily being the key word.
We have not forgotten your insults against our Homeland and King, and we still await a public apology from PIE regarding the embarrassing conduct of their subordinates.
A simple public apology will suffice, given from any authority figure within PIE. Please take this opportunity to right this wrong under your own aegis, right now, for Honor demands we have satisfaction regarding this issue, and we certainly will.
AS for the Fraction; the fact that we both, temporarily, have issues with the same organization in no way indicates any support or agreement with any of your vile lot. We consider our issues with PIE an Amarrian matter. Outsider opinions are not wanted. We beseech your members to embrace the Lord, beg His forgiveness, and be Saved.

Have not an inkling of doubt that the sentiment is entirely recipricated. The fact that Khanid Provincial Vanguard is a more honest and manly representative of Amarr/Khanid nationalism that actually considers fighting in space an important pre-requisite before coughing out the words "Amarr Victor" though somewhat refreshing (after years of watching PIE hide) in noways excuses your support of regressive imperialism and we are sure we'll have opportunity to blast your slaver vessels to atoms some time soon.

As I said the information I had about the internal strife of the Star Fraction came secondhand. While some DX4 pilots have spoken publically about it and the "trend" matches previous examples of SF breakups again its all secondhand. If Jade and Cosmo wish to state it isn't true and are instead acknowledging that the breakup of SF corps was due to the forming of a pirate coalition (as they now have) that's fine with me.
The Star Fraction has a long and colorful history of aligning with piratical elements. In the past though they've always sought to deny this and claimed they weren't. To now see them step forward and proudly proclaim not only are the pirates but they are also co-founder of this new pirate coalition is refreshing.
While I deplore piracy I must commend the Star Fraction on this occasion for having found the courage to face the truth about themselves. While piracy is of course a great sin being true to yourself and not lying about is commendable. Now we see the anarchists stand to proudly proclaim their status as members of a pirate coalition. Refreshing honesty from an alliance not exactly known for it.

Another pack of lies.
I don't know about refreshing honesty but the falsehoods from Archbishop are getting rather stale.
There has been no 'internal strife' with DX4. DX4 left because they wished to operate outside of the Star Fraction's RoE. That's quite fine.
There is no 'pirate coalition' being formed here. There is, rather, a free Providence region with various entities in Providence allied to one another.
But, again, if Archbishop wants to call that a 'pirate coalition' then by the same logic he must call the CVA and its recently acquired allies a 'pirate coalition' too. Or he's just a disgusting hypocrite.
The truth is that the Star Fraction are not pirates and do not shoot neutrals.
If I adopted Archbishop's style of debate and logic there is much I could say about PIE and if he or any of his comrades were to deny it they would be hypocrites of the blackest die without they repudiated the nonsense Archbishop puts about on the basis of his twisted logic.
But I won't do that. I've made my point about Archbishop's logic (if his twisting and falsehoods can be dignified with that status). I won't stoop to his level. What we all see here is that Archsbishop proceeds from rumours and innuendo to lies and slanders without any sense of shame. That is the 'spiritual' guidance that Archbishop represents.

I really don't know why the claim that Star Fraction co-operates with pirates is so controversial.
Tatusue Nuko (who knows a thing or two about SF) once confirmed that "The Star Fraction does not shy away from co-operating with pirates when it is beneficial for the revolution to do so" and of course Jade herself has previously implied that she's more than happy for SF to provide cynosural fields for pirate capital ships when it furthers her alliance's aims.

The controversy is not about working with those who may be pirates against common foes. After all, the CVA do it and I have seen some sights involving PIE pilots in my time, to be sure.
The controversy is that Archbishop is claiming we are pirates, a false claim; he is claiming that we are members of a 'pirate coalition', a false claim; he is claiming that we have admitted being pirates, a false claim; he is claiming that we have admitted being part of a 'pirate coalition', a false claim.
He just spews these false claims out while ignoring all sense and rationality.
Defend him if you wish, Blake, it just proves that PIE as a whole is tainted by this man's lies.

Actually Cosmo I did see the confirmation by Tomahawk who was a former member of the Star Fraction. You'll see back on page 2 of this thread he talks about how leaving the Star Fraction and being in a coalition means you're now part of a pirate coalition. You'll note he even mentions Bane another well known pirate alliance.
No what we have here is clearcut evidence and an admission by a former Star Fraction alliance corporation leader that pilots leaving the Star Fraction are simply joining a pirate coalition and "tags don't matter". He even compares it to pilots leaving PIE and joining other loyalist corporations who we fly with.
As you can see by the quote below he's quite clear in what he's saying. He's saying there is an official "coalition" of pirates. He's also clearly saying the tags on your ships mean little and you'll continue flying with them and they'll continue flying with Star Fraction pilots.
Originally by: Tomahawk Bliss
Originally by: Archbishop --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
the fact your alliance is falling apart and your most active members are leaving isn't really an effective tactic when you've been completely exposed.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I think you misunderstand how supporting a coalition works. you think tags matter? people change depending on the job at hand. in fact, how many PIE pilots have gone and worked for other Amarr loyalist groups but remained in the fold and fought along side their brethren?
go on and try to cause some damage to The Star Fraction and you can see first hand how "falling apart" adding another whole alliance has been.
maybe you missed the whole Coalition part? possibly getting your golden butts blasted off by Bane and Mode in Amamake everyday has made you confused.
Given these pirates also have secured offices in and around your outpost and the fact they don't fire on you (while shooting everyone else) makes it very clear you are in league with them.
I have to say it's pretty easy to catch the Star Fraction in their hypocrisy. All you need to do is sit around and wait for them to open their mouths and something (like this pirate coalition confession) will come out. I'm sure Tomahawk didn't mean to spill the beans on the true situation here and you'll try some spin-like damage control but the truth is out.

It's just more lies from Archbishop.
He lies about there being a 'pirate coalition': there is no such coalition in Providence (well, there's the CVA and its pirate allies but he doesn't call that a 'pirate coalition' such is his hypocrisy). He lies about what Tomahawk Bliss's words mean: Tomahawk Bliss is not talking about a 'pirate coalition' rather he is talking of the Providence allies which includes the Ushra'Khan and others. He lies about the Star Fraction: the Star Fraction are not pirates and do not shoot neutrals.
It is just non-stop lies.
There's no point even engaging with it. I see no need to say anymore than that he lies and anyone who reads him critically will see it. He provides all the evidence for his mendacity himself, that's how ridiculous he is. Not only does he lie and lie and lie. He's simply bad at it.

Lets evaluate what Tomahawk, a former Star Fraction corporation leader and fleet commander said and the context he said it in.
1. I heard the Star Fraction was "falling apart" because it had members and corporations leaving and thats what I said (secondhand knowledge).
2. Tomahawk Bliss countered by stating tags don't matter and implied you will still fly together in making the argument that the alliance was not "falling apart".
3. He used the word "coalition" to describe that group of pilots.
4. He even compared it to the situation where PIE pilots have left but have joined other Amarrian loyalist organizations and we've flown with them later on.
5. Tomahawk Bliss is a member of The Final Stand a known pirate group and referenced Bane another pirate group in his comments.
Conclusion:
1. There is a coalition.
2. The Star Fraction pilots who left are a part of it.
3. The other members like The Final Stand and Bane are known pirate organizations.
4. The now ex-Star Fraction pilots will still be flying with the Star Fraction and don't view "tags" as anything seperating the organizations that are a part of this pirate coalition.
Tomahawk has made it very clear that the fact members and corporations left the Star Fraction mean nothing because there is a coalition and you will still fly together. I can only conclude that Tomahawks comments were errant in nature and not desired by the Star Fraction. In other words he blew it and let it slip accidently and now you're trying to do damage control.
Tomahawks comments are very clear and quite concise. There is a coalition, Star Fraction pilots are freely moving in and out of pirate corporations, the Star Fraction is not falling apart and the other members of this coalition are known pirate organizations. We shouldn't forget these pirate groups also convienently have offices at your outpost.
Obviously the Star Fraction has committed another blunder (like the backroom deal with Daisho and the IRED incident in Malkalen) and now they're trying to spin it into something positive. Fortunately Tomahawks comment is here for all to see and it's quite concise in describing the links between this pirate coalition and the Star Fraction.
It's quite apparent this exposure of your coalition wasn't intended. I fully expect the Star Fraction to continue calling it a "lie" or try to claim its a big Minmatar coalition. Fortunately the words are here for all to see and all will make their own judgement. Joe the Citizen can decide for himself what the pirate coalition is all about and if you're involved or not.
I agree with Graelyn... who could've imagined you'd to come right out and say it like you did.

More lies.
There is a coalition but it is not a pirate coalition. It is the coalition of free Providence allies. It exists to defend Providence from the CVA slavers and their pirate allies. It does not exist to promote piracy. It does not exist as a coalition of pirates. It is not a pirate coalition.
We all know what the Amarr loyalist definition of 'pirate' is. It is anyone who operates in 0.0 or low-sec that they don't like. We saw that when Aralis, bizarrely, described a CONCORD technical support subsidiary as 'pirates'. We saw it when he called the Ushra'Khan 'pirates'.
Yet we also see Aralis and the CVA allying with people who have openly engaged in piracy and others who have the same policies as some non-NRDS free Providence allies but, curiously, that isn't a 'pirate coalition' as Archbishop sees it. Hypocrisy? Let the general reader decide indeed.
Ultimately, those who are loyal to the slave empire will believe this drivel. No loss there. Those who know us and fight with us will discount it. No loss there. Those with the intelligence to actually read what has been said and see how Archbishop twists and distorts it will see who is telling lies and who is speaking truth. A net gain for us.
Keep it up, Archbishop. The more you spin white to black, hot to cold, good to evil and truth to lies, the more you help demonstrate the vacuum of morality at the heart of Amarr loyalism, the more you help us.
Meantime, here is truth for those willing to hear it:
The Star Fraction are not pirates. The Star Fraction do not shoot neutrals. The Star Fraction advocate and argue for NRDS RoE. The Star Fraction welcome free transit and free trade with neutrals. The Star Fraction view piracy as undesirable on economic, ethical and philosophical grounds. The Star Fraction are not and never will be a party to a 'pirate coalition' anywhere, never mind in free Providence.

What are the Final Stand then? Revolutionaries fighting for freedom?
If you claim this was just 'a change of tags', then you are suggesting The Final Stand and the Star Fraction are currently very close in terms of ideology and method of operations. The Final Stand has a very clear reputation as a pirate alliance. So a few options remain:
1. You are lying 2. The Final Stand has seen a sudden change in principles and methodology after you joined and now resembles SF 3. The Star Fraction has seen a sudden change in principles and methodology after you left and now resembles The Final Stand 4. The principles and methodology between the two were always nearly the same to insiders, only the SF profiled itself as non-pirates while The Final Stand profiled itself as pirates.

Either these points are fairly minor and irrelevant to general Star Fraction policy, or else the fact that many former SF members believe they are 'just changing their tags' implies that you either are lying, or are grossly hypocritical in your dealings.
On the other hand, it is also possible that a real rift has occured after some internal struggle in SF, and you are trying to cover this up. The truth will set you free. ____

The never-ending dribble and bickering going around star fraction is getting quite tiresome.
Star Fraction is an enemy both to the Kingdom, the Empire and surely the Caldari state as well (I would go as far as to say they are enemies to all forms of governmentàexcept their own). Given this fact I would say less talk and more fighting is in order, as I donÆt understand what exactly all this communications exchange wants to achieve. If there is a problem or disagreement that diplomacy cannot solve, well then, thereÆs always war, an extension of diplomacy itself.
Some should make use of that tool more often, and perhaps gain a bit more of leverage before trying to win some sort of logical victory through words.

The reason these threads and arguments are endless is that PIE leadership have long ordered their pilots to consider the Star Fraction "irrelevant" to action in space, while "super-relevant" to IGS propaganda. PIE recognize that they cannot match the Fraction in any kind of war or military contest and hope instead to cover their weakness with sporadic deceitful posting of the kind we have seen from the cloaking-bestower piloting Archbishop in this thread.
This war of words will never end. Because PIE will never be driven from the IGS while their forum-personalities remain active (Blake and Archbishop) and Star Fraction will never be defeated in space by these toothless blowhard remmnants of fallen amarrian nationalism.
So it continues and in many ways the status quo helps the Fraction since it is becoming appparent that many pilots are driven away from ideals of Amarrian Nationalism by the rather pathetic images of this self-proclaimed Archbishop trying to give out gifts and prizes coughing out empty choruses of "Amarr Victor" while hiding the Empire's capital station.
New pilots want to join martial organizations and those prepared to walk the walk rather than follow the faded cleric into obscurity and incontinence in the shabby halls of PIE.

Your use of the word "uncover" implies there is something to uncover. Now that your new pirate coalition has been exposed I would say you are correct in saying this is an embarrassing revelation for the Star Fraction officers.
Quote: The reason these threads and arguments are endless is that PIE leadership have long ordered their pilots to consider the Star Fraction "irrelevant" to action in space, while "super-relevant" to IGS propaganda. PIE recognize that they cannot match the Fraction in any kind of war or military contest and hope instead to cover their weakness with sporadic deceitful posting of the kind we have seen from the cloaking-bestower piloting Archbishop in this thread.
We consider you irrelevant because you are. Efforts on galnet to expose your hypocritical activities are simply a public service. As men of God the pilots of PIE are committed to the truth. When we see an obvious lie as we have here with first denying the existence of a coalition then acknowledging one does exist (but claiming it's not a pirate coalition) we speak out.
Unfortunately for the Star Fraction the existence of their coalition has now been confirmed and confessed to. Given Merdaneths observation that each Star Fraction position above is directly counter to those of the Final Stand a known pirate alliance proves only one thing. The Star Fraction are in leagues with these pirate groups. But this isn't anything new. They have a long history of collaboration with pirates. After the backroom deal they cut with the territorialist, enclosurist, NBSI alliance the Daisho Syndicate was exposed they can hardly claim the mantle of "freespace revolutionary" because they themselves have crawled into bed with those diametrically opposed to their stated positions.
I guess the big questions are:
1. Why do pirates NOT shoot at the Star Fraction when they shoot at everyone else?
2. Why does the Star Fraction pariticpate in operations that clear space of peace enforcing groups (like Mito) only to leave them for pirate takeover.
3. Why does the Star Fraction allow pirate corporations to have office space in their outpost?
4. Why does the Star Fraction feel it's OK to provide cyno jump capabilties for pirate capital ships?
5. Why does the Star Fraction feel there is no problem setting up a warp bubble at a gate while pirates sit nearby shooting those who are caught in it?
Rodj is right. I really don't understand why there is any controversy over this. The Star Fraction is quite clearly a member of this pirate coalition and have embraced the pirate lifestyle long ago. While they claim they don't shoot neutrals they have also admitted in the past they have had "accidents" but claim they reimburse their victims. Of course when they've griefed a corporation into quitting the pod completely and abandoning the Eve cluster paying for a few lost ships when they realize they made a mistake is hardly a remedy to the damage they've caused.
The truth is very clear. Tomahawk spilled the beans. Cosmo admits there is a coalition but tries to paint it as something else. In the end the Star Fraction will go along with their pirate coalition members as they always have. They made their bed. Now they can sleep in it. If they think people in Providence associating with and supporting CVA makes them guilty of being pro-slavery what does crawling into bed with pirates make you? I think we know that answer.

Don't pay to much attention to them Jade. To be honest... it is to be expected. When corporations and alliance begin to crumble such as PIE Inc.... they generally tend to scream the loudest. Survival mechanism maybe? So much for the glorious and almighty allies of the CVA who were never there to defend CVA sov space eh?
Another note: Archbishop **STILL** doesn't realize that Tomahawk Bliss(wether it be true or not)... was speaking on his own behalf and not that of Daedalus X.
You see Bishop... we are not a "hive mind" such as PIE Inc. or you false religion... we have individual rights and freedoms DESPITE the best efforts of the Amarr.

Sorry Icarus, your words are exactly why I always thought Star Fraction was our closest ideological organization, but the reality is: the way Star Fraction have acted towards loyal Minmatar and their own statements to defend those actions completely contradict everything you said here.
You see, SF can't claim the moral high ground when they are right...AND when they are wrong.
I don't know why the Amarrians are going on and on about SF working with 'pirates' I really don't. Not when SF has stated they will sit by and watch Sansha supporters fire on those defending against slave raids simply because your 'leader' sleeps with someone who supports Sansha.
Obviously Star Fractions' view of both what is good for the revolution and what is freedom are quite different from the actual definitions.

If this was really true, then why did the Star Fraction put forth every effort to stop the Sisters of EvE a few years ago on their missions of mercy?

I can assure you, had we put forth every effort to stop that mission it would have been stopped. I commanded that day and our force was overwhemingly superior.
We took no steps against SoE vessels. You possibly are confusing the issue with our legitimate dispute with Mordu's Legion (a dispute that has not ended I would note, hence our status as a formally designated enemy of the Legion) and our destruction of a Legion vessel piloted by one of the Legion officers that had chosen to slander us.
As for wars, I admit to some puzzlement at your remarks. At the time of the incident we were in a campaign against the Cyrene Initiative and the Intaki Union, for I can only think you refer to them, were an ally. The only time they have been a war enemy was during our later war against Amarrian loyalist entities when they were a member corporation of the Aegis Militia. None of that had anything to do with the Sisters of Eve.
So much for history, which while informative as to certain issues of this thread (such as the relative merits of certain Amarrian loyalist organizations) is probably straying far too wide of the matter.

Edited by: Emperor on 16/07/2010 13:53:27 Is this discussion nearing resolution, compromise on both your houses? The only agreement here is disagreement.
This endless bickering brings no honor the fallen of the Battle of Mekhios, and this divide that separates, yet no smaller!
To those of you who believe in The One True God; I call on you to remember that beside holiness and righteousness, our God also has the property of forgiveness, mercy, and grace. Sometimes it is better to let a transgression pass, than to re-butt or to rebuke endlessly. Emulate your God.
For if one cannot talk to one's opponent dispassionately, one cannot effectively proclaim His Glory, for no one sees it reflected in us. This endless cycle of senseless arugument distracts us from our true mission.
To those of you who do not believe; What do you seek in this endless chatter? Acceptance? A Minmatar sage once wrote The Sebiestor learns wisdom, only once he realizes the futility of trying to move a wall..
Argue .. or don't, move on, or be trapped in an endless cycle of words, but whatever you do - consider what this is achieving.

A false claim. You're telling lies again, Starsparrow.
Why do you continue to call me a liar for simply stating what yu yourselves say publicly for all to see? It's pathological if not downright psychotic.
This is Revan supporting slavery.
In that opening remark she clearly says this : Originally by: Revan Neferis In advance, before the silly question appears, no, The Star Fraction won't be targeted because I don't target my lover's alliance.
Yet in another thread, when asks you Cosmo, why Revan isn't on your list of Sansha supporters you say : Originally by: The Cosmopolite Our standings and war declarations in this matter concern organisations that as a whole are actively supporting the purposes of Sansha's Nation...If and when particular independent corporations or alliances actually take a policy position we will consider the issues that arise.
You then go on to say : Originally by: The Cosmopolite
I repeat that we set standings on an organisational basis and for reasons pertaining to the policies and actions of organisations and those acting in their name. Revan Neferis will not be shot at by Star Fraction pilots for the simple plain reason that the alliance of which she is a member is not hostile to the Star Fraction.
But then it gets confusing. I mean...I understand Revan has ALWAYS been a Sansha supporter, but saying nothing's changed? Everything changed the day Sansha opened their first wormhole in Empire, and everyone seems to see it but you.
You were asked again and again if you would fire on Revan and co. In thread after thread you made clear you would not. Like this :
Originally by: The Cosmopolite Now, no policy has changed...In this instance, we are quite clear that the Final Stand has not committed to any policy or taken any action that requires any diplomacy or would be likely to lead to a change in posture. We are also satisfied that no individual has taken any action in the name of the Final Stand that requires any such discussion or change.
To be clear...we are talking about this :
Originally by: Revan Neferis
The Covenant and the Sansha Nation have shared positive standings since times immemorial. Hereby I confirm that I'll commence operations to facilitate the incursions of my allied forces in Amarr Empire Space.
I'm giving 24 hours warning to Corporations who have interfered with Sansha incursions inside the Empire, to withdraw their support and interference.
When 24 hours from this announcement has expired, I'll start to issue formal concord war declarations against corporations and / or alliances of my choice, organizations who will be faced with specialized military forces and become unable to operate against Kuvakei's affairs.
I mean, you saw that right? How is it one entity within a larger one can unilaterally declare war on people defending against slave raids without that larger entity being held accountable? These are the people you have set blue, so no matter how much you protest against the Amarr and their brand of slavery you are willingly, obstinately blue to slave supporters. More so, to people who are attempting to weaken our defense against these slave raiders for no other stated reason than to see the raids succeed.
Continue pretending I'm lying if it'll help you sleep at night but it would be a refreshing change of pace if Star Fraction actually looked to themselves and honestly re-evaluated their position. Your reputation has fallen from great defenders of freedom to liars, hypocrites and sycophants. How did that happen?

A false claim. You're telling lies again, Starsparrow.
Why do you continue to call me a liar for simply stating what yu yourselves say publicly for all to see? It's pathological if not downright psychotic.
We have said no such thing and we act in no such way. I repeat, the claim is false and you are telling lies. You've even conjured up a new lie or two to sprinkle in between your ridiculous collage of chopped up quotes.
Your motives in all this are not obscure. You want revenge because we have exposed you as the dupe and creature of slave-trade profiteers, race-traitors and agents of the Amarr Empire. You will therefore not stint yourself to smear us at every twist and turn. You say 'everything' changed with the Nation incursions. This is typical of the hysteria that has been generated by the Nation attacks and it is a hysteria deliberately promoted by those, like you, who see an opportunity to shackle others and bend them to the will of a herd mentality.
I admire those who refuse to abandon their principles to this hysterical lowing and braying of panicked ungulates masquerading as capsuleers. I even admire the principle of the Amarrian paramilitaries who refuse to have any truck with their foes even as I abominate them for refusing to act in sensible accordance with better principles than those fed them by their evil old priests. It was with amusement that I saw you abase yourself before Amarr slavers and paramilitaries and beg them to co-operate with you. Here is another group of people who will fire on anti-Sansha forces simply because their overlords order them to do so. Yet no condemnation or torrents of abuse are hurled in their direction from you. Rather, you and your race-traitor confreres saw fit to whine and wheedle in the face of the fact that the Amarr paramilitaries still see you as subhuman. When is this going to sink in? The Amarr loyalists are not interested in peace and well-being for all. They are interested only in the supremacy of their empire and the enslavement of all others under its lash.
As for us, it isn't that our reputation has changed. After all Amarr paramilitaries, Ammatar and other race-traitors, Hethites, Federation ultra-nationalists and Midularist Republicans alike have long reviled our name. What's changed here is you. You swapped the noble cause of freedom for the base goal of profiteering and subversion. You allowed yourself to be suborned by race-traitors. It is no surprise that you try to portray us as enemies of freedom now you yourself have abandoned it as your prime cause. It is the classical tactic of those who from guilt or loathing act against freedom to slander those who fight for it. Meantime, I think you will find that those with a rather longer and more consistent record of fighting freedom than you can claim still regard us as stout allies in the cause.

Read the threads Cosmo. And you have yet to supply the slightest bit of evidence to the claims that I am a traitor to my own people the way you are a traitor to yours. Unless somehow being in Star Fraction is not really at odds with supporting the Empire? It apparently isn't at odds with supporting Sansha which puts us at odds.
I in no way wish to honour the fallen Amarrians at Mekhios, but I also don't believe in dishonouring the dead, nor those that wish to honour those that have passed. This is the second time I have been made to feel sorry for the same Amarrian, and the second time I feel sorry to enemies trying to honour their dead due to Star Fractions complete and utter disregard for common sense and decorum.
PIE, I have been at war with you before. I am against CVA and PIE and the Empire (and Sansha, but who's counting). All that considered, I'm sorry for any part I played in allowing SF to derail this thread considering the nature of it.

Starsparrow, you really do wax pathetic.
Am I an apostate? Yes, certainly. Am I a heretic? To be sure. Am I a traitor to the Amarr Empire? Obviously, I am. Am I a traitor to the Amarr people? I do not see myself as such but when all is said and done I am content to await the judgement of the Amarr people when they actually gain their own voice.
As to membership of the Star Fraction and supporting Sansha's Nation incursions, attacks and slave-taking, it is as incompatible as support for the Amarr Empire. Which is to say it is completely incompatible. You just want to smear us with this brush of 'Sansha-supporting' tar because you know the current hysteria designates that as a crime akin to baby-eating on an industrial scale. You do so on the basis of our refusal to breach a diplomatic agreement with an ally that does not support the Sansha's Nation incursions. Yet you deny being a slaver-supporter even though you engaged in bad-faith diplomacy, portraying yourself as a mediator, and then declared actual war on us in support of slave-trade profiteers who support the Amarr Empire and Khanid Kingdom. In other words, you're a complete and utter hypocrite.
I understand you are trying to provoke me but all you are succeeding in doing is to provoke even more amusement.
As to your own status, I think it is, at a minimum, in some doubt. I have not myself named you a race-traitor. I remain of the view that a toxic brew of pride, self-delusion and the attentions of some race-traitors undoubted has caused you to lose your way. However, I do fear that if you continue on the course on which you are set you will eventually become nothing more than a tool of the Amarr Empire and its agents of subversion.
What I note is that once more you caper on all fours with Amarr loyalists. Are you so bovine in your stupidity that you seriously think this rally was a simple memorial? Have you even read the triumphalist ravings of these paramilitaries? Their rally celebrated, above all, the destruction of the Minmatar fighters seeking to liberate millions of slaves. It celebrated the victory, as they see it, of the Amarr Empire that day, and you come here saying you feel sorry for these evil slavers? Are you in your right mind at all any more?

I went to the battle site for a short time, to think about things.
Mostly how after two years, all that's happened is that the extremists have managed to spend many lives, and generate more lists of things to avenge and acts that invite vengeance. A motherless son may see the Empress as a substitute. A fatherless daughter may see Shakor as a substitute, And together they will create more orphans.

And she said this with JadeÆs dizzy head in her lap.
If you want Star fraction to be taken seriously; if you ever want to have a shred of legitimacy among the rest of the Capsuleer community, then deal with the lies and hypocracy of your own organization before you try to find fault with someone else.
If Star Fraction is against SanshaÆs Nation, clean out your security risks, man up and send some ships to help out the next time there is an attack. Because your words might be pretty, but deeds count more chummer.

The Star Fraction have participated in counter-Sansha operations in space so any suggestion that we haven't is just another baseless piece of nonsense thrown out for the effect of smearing us as secret Sansha-supporters.
You know, if you want to be taken seriously you should learn to tell the difference between personal relationships and political actions. I do not know quite what it is that so befuddles, obsesses and, as it were, marinades the contents of some people's skulls in a glutinous and rather opaque sauce when it comes to the fact that two people who don't agree on every jot and tittle of politics, and who act quite differently politically, economically, militarily and so on, happen to love one another. One would think some capsuleers are innocents to the complexities of love. Possibly that's the simple truth of the matter.
Look, the fact is that tabloid journalism smears are the only currency being dealt in by our enemies here. There is no political substance to any of these charges of collusion with Sansha's Nation on our part. Not a drachm. Not an ounce. Not a drop.
The Star Fraction carries out its political, military, economic and social actions without reference to the personal relationships between individuals. That is simply a fact. I suppose it is a hard fact for petty, small-minded people to accept but it is nevertheless the fact.
There is no hypocrisy here. Indeed, quite the reverse for all this turns on the fact that we refuse to interfere with and dictate to an allied entity when it comes to the matter of its individual members and the personal activities of said members.
In summary, as usual, our foes, the slavers, and the hysteria merchants of the contemporary moral panic over the Sansha's Nation incursions can't stand the fact that we are being consistent and sticking to our principles.

LetÆs break this down so there is no cause for confusionàor chance at chicanery.
Cosmo, you said:
Originally by: The Cosmopolite
As to membership of the Star Fraction and supporting Sansha's Nation incursions, attacks and slave-taking, it is as incompatible as support for the Amarr Empire. Which is to say it is completely incompatibleàYou do so on the basis of our refusal to breach a diplomatic agreement with an ally that does not support the Sansha's Nation incursions.
I just showed you that not only does your ally support Sansha:
Originally by: Revan Neferis The Covenant and the Nation share positive standings towards each other. This is no news since the beginning of times, in case you have missed the clock of the universe ticking.
But one of your own members was present at this declaration of support and did or said nothing to refute it then or since:
Originally by: Revan Neferis
* Looking down, caressing her lover's hair who is resting peacefully, head on her lap whispering "where the sun doesn't shine hum? * shaking her head amused and turning off the comms *
So there is every reason to call you a hypocrite. Despite that, IÆm not trying to be inflammatory. Many legal systems maintain clauses that protect one spouse from having to testify against the other. This is due to a basic conflict of interests. Most corporations do not allow spouses or lovers or relatives to work together in the same department because of the inherent risk of favoritism. By every ethical standard, a professional relationship ceases to be a professional relationship once it becomes a personal one. And sex has always been at the forefront of espionage. From the oldest stories of mankind to the popular holovids of today and in history after history we see evidence that lovers always reveal to each other things they shouldnÆt.
That you back your friend is commendable. IÆm a big fan of love and a romantic at heart too! That two people who are so diametrically opposed could form a deep bond like this is every romanticÆs dream. But this goes way beyond the realms of romanticism. Millions of peoplesÆ lives are at stake. Even if she never hands the Nation a slave herself, by not doing everything she can to end RevanÆs support of the Nation, she is an ally of everything Star Fraction claims to fight against.
Maybe IÆm just a slave and a ôrace traitorö in your eyes (and arenÆt you one too?), but my Master didnÆt raise me to be ignorant. Tell me how this doesnÆt constitute a massive conflict of interest for your alliance?
You canÆt say that you are against slavery and yet maintain an alliance with someone who supports slavery. That goes beyond hypocrisy and illogic and teeters on the brink of the sociopath.

What you being a slave condemning Sansha's Nation slavery that only exists because the same people you serve (your master's people) enslaved a few hundred million matari and sold them to Sansha to experiment on new methods of slave holding. That kind of conflict of interest?
Quote: You canÆt say that you are against slavery and yet maintain an alliance with someone who supports slavery.
Isn't that what you are doing? Or perhaps the fact you are a slave absolves you from "forming an alliance" with your master (who very definately supports slavery).
Amarrians, race-traitor matari and bottom-feeding ammatar lickspittals condeming Sansha's Nation for slavery. That's really the only conflict of interest in this matter and your arguments are getting increasingly desperate, illogical and piteous.

What Andreus Ixiris and others fail to realise, is that they are living in the time of the Greatest Love Story Of New Eden Ever.
i.e. when history books are written, that's what will be written about. And holo-films too. Eyes meet over a glass of fine wine, while in the background a planet explodes for no readily apparent reason. That sort of thing. Other events are not really as notable.
This lack of realisation is what causes so much idle posting, and accusations of hypocrisy and conflicts of interest. E.g. a recent accusation was that Captain Neferis was no friend of the Minmatar, despite her efforts against CVA, PIE, etc. Because allegedly she called some Minmatar subhumans or something. The details of the accusation are not important. If the accusation is false, well, haters gonna hate, as the young people say these days. In the unlikely event that it is true, then it is not actually hypocrisy. Instead, and this is what the people don't realise, it elevates Captain Neferis statements of poetry to Captain Constantine even further. That is, if Captain Neferis did say something about Minmatar that might be considered mean if it was said by someone else, then when she says such nice things about Captain Constantine, e.g. that gift she made recently, then the depth of feeling that is revealed is so much greater.
Hence, Greatest New Eden Love Story Of All Time. And the bit-players and by standers will not be mentioned in history, so would do better for themselves by not talking about it.
Yes. Yes, I am. |

The hang up isn't over who is sleeping with whom. If that was the case weÆd be all trying to see who Seriphyn Inhonores falls in bed with next.
It's about Star Fraction claiming to be an "anti-slavery" alliance who is in bed figuritvly and literally with people theyÆre supposed to be fighting against. ItÆs about Star Fraction decrying the actions of SanshaÆs Nation while they keep close ties with Sansha supporters. They mucked up a peaceful ceremony with the claim that they were making a stand against slavery but they allow their people to fraternize with the enemy.
It kind of makes me wonder if UÆK is guilty of the same level of complicity. They want to ôfree my peopleö but if they have to work with the likes of Star Fraction or Final Stand to do soàarenÆt they just supporting a different brand of slavery? Given Star FractionÆs actions at the memorial and their alliance with Final Stand can UÆK really trust them?
The purpose of this facet of the debate isnÆt just another excuse to slam Star Fraction. We covered their disgraceful actions earlier on and thereÆs more than enough other threads open to indulge that pastime. When Sansha puts several dozen ships over a densely populated planet, people want to know who they can trust to stand against them. Cosmo says Star Fraction is against Sansha, but thereÆs a worm at the heart of his rhetoric. Is the offer of assistance self-aggrandizement or is it true? ThatÆs the hang up.
The love story is irrelevant if thereÆs no one left alive to read about it.

#1 - Star Fraction /= Jade Constantine
The two were together when Revan was a slaver and I dare saying that she supported slaver organizations back then as she does now. What makes you think that Nation being one of these slaver organizations will change anything? And while it may be hard for you to understand, there are people who can divide personal and professional interests, or who love each other enough to not care.

#2 - Final Stand /= Revan Neferis.
She is a Blood Raider and Sani Sabik, The Archaeus of Blood is a Blood Raider and Sani Sabik organisation. The Final Stand isn't. While it may be hard for you to understand, there are people who can and do divide corporate and alliance interests.

Originally by: The Cosmopolite The Star Fraction carries out its political, military, economic and social actions without reference to the personal relationships between individuals.
Out of curiosity, do you understand the definition of the term "conflict of interest"?
I do indeed. I also understand the difference between political interests and personal interests and I do not accept that the one is necessarily affected or influenced by the latter. Indeed, I regard the assumption that personal interests always and inevitably affect political interests as pernicious and deadly dangerous to the struggle for freedom.
If you want to say there is a conflict of interest between personal relations and political actions then you are at one with those who, for example, would block the promotion of a Federation Navy officer because his wife happens to be Deteis or Civire or Achura. If you believe that it is legitimate to query the public life of someone on the grounds of their private life then you can have no real problem with what happens in Caldari MegaCorps where, very often, personal relationships between those employed by different MegaCorp combines are treated with suspicion and hostility. Those relationships are a conflict of interest so it's OK for them to be treated badly, yes?
These and a myriad other cases where people try to justify their mistreatment, scorn and slander of others on the basis of a 'conflict of interest' will have to be accepted as in principle fine by you if you want to say that a personal relationship between two people who differ in their political outlook and in their political actions is to be condemned as a 'conflict of interest'. This from you, someone who supposedly believes in the highest ideals of Gallentean notions of liberty, such as they are. I suppose it should not overly surprise me.
To me, on the other hand, a conflict of interest is properly drawn to the attention of relevant parties when it is a political, economic, or otherwise properly defined conflict between interests relevant to the parties involved where their relationship is political, economic or what have you. Then it become a question of deciding the actions that can be taken to resolve any such conflict.
The simple fact here is that there is no political conflict of interest between the Star Fraction and the Final Stand that justifies any diplomatic discussion between us and, by definition, nothing meriting the military response that so many odious hypocrites are so obviously calling for.
As to the personal relationship between Jade Constantine and Revan Neferis, it is a matter for them and I see no merit in the Star Fraction or the Final Stand pontificating on the matter, let alone waving weapons around meaningfully. In fact, I think the suggestion is simply absurd.
The irony here, to me, is that the hysteria and the hue and cry about 'Sansha-supporters' and so forth, the vile and prurient obsession with romantic relationships and the calling up of violence as the response, leads quite clearly down a path of homogeneity and regimentation that will rapidly come to resemble the soullessness and monotony of the propagandist's portrayal of Sansha's Nation.
An ancient philosopher's proverb as to monsters and the fighting of such would seem to me fairly apt in such a circumstance.

Originally by: The Cosmopolite I also understand the difference between political interests and personal interests and I do not accept that the one is necessarily affected or influenced by the latter.
Then you clearly don't understand the concept of a conflict of interest! They exist wherever two sets of mutually conflicting goals are held by a single individual or organisation, regardless of the source of the motivation. There is absolutely no reason that a conflict of interest cannot exist between a personal interest and a political interest. In fact, if anything, it is more likely, because personal interests are often more strongly held than political ones, and due to the fact that personal interests are far more often held on the basis of emotion than logic (not, of course, that there's anything wrong with that) there is often a distinct temptation present.
Originally by: The Cosmopolite block the promotion of a Federation Navy officer because his wife happens to be Deteis or Civire or Achura
Does not follow. There are tens of millions of Deteis, Civire and Achur citizens in the Federation whose loyalty to our nation is not in question - membership in an ethnicity does not imply anything about one's beliefs - as you, an Amarrian anarchist, should know. Your statement thusly carries some rather unpleasant undertones of racial profiling. Vremaja Idama has a Caldari wife and no Intaki (or at least, no rational Intaki) suspects him of colluding with the recent State occupation. Additionally, I never said that any relationship between two individuals holding differing political outlooks is a direct conflict of interest - in fact, if you take the time and effort to reread my post, I never actually said anything other than asking you if you knew what the definition was.
However, now that we're on the subject, there is a very clear difference between merely holding differing political views and being:
a. a member of - and official spokesperson for - an organisation that claims it will spare no expense to combat the Sansha b. in a close relationship - of any kind! Doesn't even need to be romantic - with someone who claims they will spare no expense to support the Sansha
This is clearly a conflict of interest - for both parties, actually. There's a clear and undeniable difference between two people personally and privately holding a differing set of political beliefs and openly and publicly supporting opposite sides of a war. There's not two but three different sets of interests here (one each unique to each party - allegience - and one held mutually - romantic involvement) that conflict with each other.
Of course, that a conflict of interest merely exists does not mean that it will inevitably be acted upon, and I'll be the first to admit that just because there's a conflict of interest around is no reason for two people who truly love each other to end a relationship. What I'm saying here is that when such a conflict exists, it's a relevant, legitimate and, frankly, obvious line of questioning and, respectfully, you can't really legitimately act upset or offended when people bring it up.
To some, my co-operation with members of the Intaki Prosperity Initiative, a known coalition of corporations who have a generally pro-secessionalist agenda represents a conflict of interest, and that's a perfectly legitimate postulate, one I'm more than willing to address - and a line of questioning that I in fact must address, if I'm to maintain my credibility. I have nothing to hide in this regard, however, so I have nothing to fear, and so I have no need to turn aside questioning. I am confident that the same situation exists with your leadership.

First, let's deal with your confusion of an example of a falsely-drawn conflict of interest, as I view it, with my own views.
Originally by: Andreus Ixiris
Originally by: The Cosmopolite block the promotion of a Federation Navy officer because his wife happens to be Deteis or Civire or Achura
Does not follow. There are tens of millions of Deteis, Civire and Achur citizens in the Federation whose loyalty to our nation is not in question - membership in an ethnicity does not imply anything about one's beliefs - as you, an Amarrian anarchist, should know. Your statement thusly carries some rather unpleasant undertones of racial profiling.
Of course, I know it. I am giving an example of what the view that personal relationships must needs conflict with political and other public interests can lead to. Are you being deliberately obtuse?
Originally by: Andreus Ixiris
Originally by: The Cosmopolite I also understand the difference between political interests and personal interests and I do not accept that the one is necessarily affected or influenced by the latter.
Then you clearly don't understand the concept of a conflict of interest! They exist wherever two sets of mutually conflicting goals are held by a single individual or organisation, regardless of the source of the motivation. There is absolutely no reason that a conflict of interest cannot exist between a personal interest and a political interest.
On the last point, you speak as if I have said otherwise. You're very fond of telling people to read what you say more carefully but you don't actually practise what you preach in that regard. I said I do not accept that there is necessarily a conflict of interest when there are two people of different views involved in a personal relationship. On the point of whether such a conflict must exist, you do appear to take a more absolutist view that there is always such a conflict or, perhaps better to say, you seem to be one of these people who thinks that people are guilty of a conflict of interests until they can prove otherwise. Very liberal of you and once again I repeat that such an attitude puts you in company with some very unpleasant people.
Now, on the subject of conflicts of interest that may be present in this case, I think you are, like others, confusing the relevant spheres of interest. Most people are doing this entirely deliberately in order to embroil the Star Fraction and the Final Stand in allegations that we are 'Sansha-supporting' organizations. You will have to speak to that yourself and I am not yet going to accuse you of that.
The problem here arises, in my view, from an inability (either willful, pathological or simply through stupidity) to separate individuals from their respective organizations and to distinguish between what individuals do and what organizations do. One basic error, repeated even though it has been pointed out time and again, is to assert that Revan Neferis has spoken for and commited to a course of action the Final Stand alliance. Simply false. She has spoken and acted in an entirely private capacity. It is therefore inadmissible for the Star Fraction to start making diplomatic queries or threaten violence against the Final Stand: which is what all these hypocrites want.
Is there a conflict of interest at all here? Yes, possibly so. Just not one for the Star Fraction to deal with. That is the key point.

You're putting words into my mouth and acting in a particularly disrespectful manner - I'm going to politely ask you, once, to stop. I never took an "absolutist view" or said that a conflict of interest always occurs, so stop trying to imply that I did. I said that in this particular circumstance there is absolutely a conflict of interest. I proceeded to illustrate why this is.
Originally by: The Cosmopolite Now, on the subject of conflicts of interest that may be present in this case, I think you are, like others, confusing the relevant spheres of interest.

Well that's certainly a refreshing and unexpected change of pace, maybe we can...
Originally by: The Cosmopolite The problem here arises, in my view, from an inability (either willful, pathological or simply through stupidity)
... oh...
Originally by: The Cosmopolite to separate individuals from their respective organizations and to distinguish between what individuals do and what organizations do.
The Final Stand never even came into this. I don't believe I ever mentioned them. In fact, I'm certain I never did. When the people in question are leaders or VIPs within the organisations they represent, however - people whom it can be logically inferred hold executive power over the strategic, tactical and operational levels of those organisations - questions that revolve around their personal choices and beliefs will inevitably touch upon the affects those choices and beliefs are having on the ends to which that power is being disposed. This question occasionally arises even when the individual has absolutely no bearing on the organisation's leadership - see Eran Mintor and Annwn Matari. So no...
Originally by: The Cosmopolite Is there a conflict of interest at all here? Yes, possibly so. Just not one for the Star Fraction to deal with. That is the key point.
... if your leader - or any organisation's leader, for that matter - is experiencing a conflict of interest, it is your problem. You have historically shown yourself very willing to demand that other organisations rid themselves of what you see as conflicts of interest - our allies, I-RED, being a foremost example. I'm not even asking you to address this conflict of interest (although that would certainly restore public trust in your organisation's dedication to fighting the Sansha) - only admit that it exists, and that it affects Star Fraction, not just its leader.
Originally by: The Cosmopolite Clearly I am. It isn't as if this line of questioning hasn't been addressed, over and over again.
All that I've actually seen in this regard is either assertions that the subject is irrelevant, assertions that the subject is not really Star Fraction's concern, or, in the case of Revan herself, accusations of "stalkerism", which is a large part of why I make a point of attempting to avoid talking to or about her directly. ----- Andreus Ixiris CEO, Mixed Metaphor

Ixiris, you are not the only interlocutor in this discussion. You would do well to stop taking everything I say as a comment about you.
You may not have mentioned the Final Stand but others have. You may may not be willfully or stupidly refusing to recognise the distinction between individual and corporate positions or actions but others are.
This problematic line of reasoning that ends up painting us as 'Sansha-supporters' arose quite some time before you decided to offer your views on the topic. If you want to deliberately and perhaps for rhetorical purposes take everything I say as some kind of insult then there is no point in us discussing anything at all.
As for me misinterpreting your words or 'putting them into [your] mouth'. Very well, did you or did you not say:
Quote: [Conflicts of interest] exist wherever two sets of mutually conflicting goals are held by a single individual or organisation, regardless of the source of the motivation.
The answer is of course, yes, and I take the view that this is an absolutist position. It's open to you to demonstrate quite why this very clear statement, which has no qualification or limit clause to it, is not an absolute statement that a conflict of interests exists in the circumstances you describe. You even go so far as to say it exists regardlesss of the source of any motivations involved. This, to me, is absolutist. It says a potential conflict in fact is a conflict. If your words mean something else, please do enlighten us.
As to your comments about other conflicts of interest that we have perceived with others, this is precisely to the point I am making. We only act on political or otherwise relevant conflicts with organizations or individuals clearly acting on behalf of defined capsuleer organizations.
You will not find one single example of the Star Fraction making demands of anyone, or any organization, on the basis of the personal and private relationships of individuals within those organizations with any other individual. Rather, you will, on occasion, find the Star Fraction adopting political positions and entering into diplomacy on the basis of political conflicts of interest arising from the political, economic, military or diplomatic relationships of capsuleer organizations to one another. That is the basis on which we operate. We don't go around making demands of people because we happen not to like who they sleep with or oppose the views and private activities of those they sleep with.
Yet, even then, you won't find us going around demanding that organizations take hostile action against other organizations on any basis, including political or other relationships. You won't find us going around demanding that capsuleer organizations change their standings to other capsuleer organizations on any basis. You won't find us attacking any capsuleer organization because of its standings. We only act in a military sense against those organizations who have acted against us in the past or are clearly and actively supporting our ideological enemies and have been given due warning.
This is the point. There is a deep hypocrisy behind these accusations on the part of many of the accusers. They want to deny that their open political affiliations and relationships, as organizations, do not mean that they are compromised in certain ways yet on the other hand, finding no political conflicts with regard to the Star Fraction, they want to drum up a false case of conflict of interest on the basis of the love life of our executor. It's hypocrisy on stilts.
When it comes to the case at hand, I repudiate the notion that the love life of our leader represents a conflict of interest affecting the Star Fraction. We are opposed to such a notion. We consider it a deep affront to personal liberty and we will have none of it. In the end, others will have to act as their consciences dictate.

Whenever a person holds two sets of interests that clearly mutually oppose, this is a conflict of interest. Is this an absolutist position? Perhaps. It is, however, a logical one - heck, it's tautological! A person who holds conflicting interests is experiencing a conflict of interest.
Originally by: The Cosmopolite We only act on political or otherwise relevant conflicts with organizations or individuals clearly acting on behalf of defined capsuleer organizations.
Eran Mintor's views do not neccessarily - or, actually, in point of fact - represent the views of Annwn Matari as a whole, yet they have been painted as Ammatar and Amarr sympathisers, race traitors, blood traitors, etc. by Star Fraction mostly upon the weight of views he specifically states to be his own, and on Cheiftan's prior dealings with the Caldari. This seems to me very much like Star Fraction interfering with personal matters.
The rest of your statement is deeply contentious, and I could cite your continuing, outrageously hypocritical ideomilitary conflict with I-RED to support this, but the thought of getting into another six-page argument over something that's already firmly established gives me the urge to reach for my bottle of vodka and drown myself in it, and regardless, it's certainly not relevant to the current topic.
I will say only this: A member of your leadership has a clear conflict of interest, and it will, whether you like it or not - whether you accept it or not - affects your organisation's already dubious credibility. If you do not like people bringing it up, take steps to resolve it. I do not believe, as some do, that Star Fraction is supporting the Sansha. If I did, I would not beat around the bush - I'd come right out and say it. However, I do believe this, so I'll come right out and say it - I think that you not are as firmly committed to combatting the threat as you say you are, else you would be less reticent to address the matter we are discussing. The details of Revan and Jade's relationship itself are certainly not in the public interest - not to mention that for my own sanity I think I'd prefer it if they were kept secret - although they seem remarkably eager to make it public when it suits them. The relationship itself isn't important; what it implies is, and what it implies, as I have spent laborious effort establishing, is a conflict of interest relevant to Star Fraction.
I think if I say "conflict of interest" many more times I'm going to take myself up on that idea of vodka-catalysed drowning. ----- Andreus Ixiris CEO, Mixed Metaphor

I think the problem really is that your position is indeed fairly tautological when we get down to it. You seem to me to view potential conflicts of interest as in fact actual and realised conflicts of interest. As a result, your accusation of a conflict of interest is circular. You assert a conflict on the basis of appearance and possibility, from which you proceed to say that because of the conflict that you say is a fact you are entitled to cast aspersions on people. Just as you have done when you say that the Star Fraction is not as commited to opposing the Sansha's Nation incursions as others.
You're not alone in this. The concept of a 'conflict of interest' has long ceased in most discourse to be a neutral term describing a possible conflict with the possibility of allowing people to explain why no conflict is realised. Rather, it is just another means by which to smear people. There's a possible conflict, so there must be a conflict, and if there is a conflict there is a moral wrong so we can raise a hue and cry. It's cheap, petty nonsense.

This seems to me very much like Star Fraction interfering with personal matters.
Here you proceed from a total fallacy. Our view of Annwn Matari is not primarily formed from an examination of the personal views of Eran Mintor. Indeed, we formed our view before he even joined the alliance. It is, to be sure, supporting evidence for our position that a former member of I-RED and a former Amarr militia crusader is warmly welcomed into the organization without any modification of his odious views. However, it is merely supporting and not the main point at issue.
No, Annwn Matari declared war on us in explicit support of I-RED, an organisation that was hostile to us, hostile to the Minmatar militia and hostile to the Ushra'Khan. I-RED's public position at the time was one of support for the CVA, for the KPV and for the Amarr Empire and Khanid Kingdom both. This was their public policy. Annwn Matari decided to become hostile to us in support of I-RED and that was a public policy. They then decided to engage in a propaganda campaign in support of I-RED. It has since been revealed that Cheiftan actually called for the war declaration against us. So all in all, I think when he has directly influenced the public policy of Annwn Matari it is fair to note that he's a race-traitor with a history of opposing freedom-fighting Minmatar.
This is the problem for these people. Our case is entirely based on their political history and their political acts. It has nothing to do with who has a romantic relationship with whomever. We couldn't care less about such things.
On the one hand you have our view based on the political record and on the other hand you have views based on tabloid smears. You seem to be another who thinks that our case with regard to Annwn Matari, based on political acts by organizations, can be dismissed while the odious smear against us based on two individuals happening to love one another must be answered. If so, you're just another hypocrite.

A conflict of interest exists, and has been actualised. Revan Neferis has threatened violence against those who attempt to halt Nation activities. Star Fraction has, to the best of my knowledge, done nothing to halt this behaviour, whether by diplomacy or military action. It is clear to most others - and should be clear to Star Fraction that a person with the intent and means to hire mercenaries (however ineffectual they have proven to be in the past ) is far more dangerous than the plethora of five or six man corporations that mill around trumpeting their devotion to Sansha's Nation and not actually doing anything particularly useful (that would be pretty much every Sansha loyalist corporation involved in the current conflict).
Yet who, indeed, has Star Fraction chosen to target? Oh, wait, that's right - you didn't even go after the mouthpiece corporations! You were busy helping the Sansha assassinate members of CONCORD!
As for the rest of your post, I'm going to take a leaf from Star Fraction's book and simply say that the accusations you make are so misinformed and beneath notice as to not be worth answering. This may or may not be true, but the fact is I really just can't be bothered to argue a point that most sane capsuleers already agree with. ----- Andreus Ixiris CEO, Mixed Metaphor

End of the day, Sansha Nation is -10 to us, I will assist any neutral or blue of ours against this threat, I may or may not help -10's with the Sansha incursions, that is a decision each free captain can make for themselves.
This is my policy, Revan has nothing to do with it. Jades personal relationships have nothing to do with it, it has simply evolved from our RoE and engagements with the Sansha in space. We will not and do not dictate policy for others, if you have a problem with a non-Star Fraction pilot, such as Revan then you need to resolve it with them.

We have many potential targets and hostile entities to prioritize, CONCORD is among them. It is not our primary concern at the moment though. We have killed far, far more Sansha puppets than we have CONCORD employees.

Hummm, PR is of little interest to me or I expect the majority of our membership. Don't get me wrong it is nice to see our efforts acknowledged by the media and capsuleers in general but this is a side effect of our actions not the driving force behind it.
Credibility? It only ever seems to be questioned by our enemies. Most individuals I come across take us at our word and wish us well on our struggle.

No you haven't! You've actually sustained more losses to "Sansha puppets" than those you've killed, your own killboards attest to this and the two most costly kills of the entire conflict were Star Fraction pilots directly assisting Sansha pilots in the destruction of CONCORD battleships lawfully patrolling Republic and State space by consent of their respective leaderships, trying to co-ordinate attempts to repel Sansha incursions.

The fact is, you tried to silence me once with Outlaw Jenner, once with Trinity Nova and then once again with the, ahem, Uranus Assault Team. None of it worked. I noticed that I didn't appear among the list of wardecs by "specialised military forces" you promised against people who tried to halt the Sansha - perhaps it's because I am of "no consequence", but then again, let's face it, that's exactly what you said about me when you paid Trinity Nova to try and shut me up, which backfired spectacularly, not only handing us an easy victory on a silver plater but restoring our credibility as a combat force after the Operation Shiva debacle.
Continue to believe I consider you anything other than a sad nitwit with a mouth that writes checques her courage can't cash and no sense of style, and I will continue to smirk, safe in the knowledge that I'm pretty much proof against any sort of "sanction" you could dream up, and the knowledge of that, even if you dare not admit it, even to yourself, drives you utterly insane.

We did not demand I-RED renounce slavery. They asked what was required for peace with the Star Fraction. The specifics were provided at the time by The Cosmopolite and refused by John Revenent, upon which he was promptly executed. I-RED made a choice when they supported slavers and when they opened fire upon free Fraction vessels, they made a choice when they refused our humble terms. At no stage have I-RED been held to ransom or threatened or forced to capitulate. We merely maintain a hostile relationship.
And remember - they fired first.

This kind of action is constant day in day out.
As for the rest of your rhetoric, if you want to try and force me into your little boxes of with or against fine I don't much care. Those who genuinely want to fight the Sansha will take advantage of the assistance I and my fellow free captains can offer. You can ignore it to your own detriment.
Oh, and for what it's worth I don't recognize either the Republic or the States claim to space. Nor do I acknowledge their "laws". These are all very primitive concepts and certinly don't create any kind of moral ambiguity for killing CONCORD employees. To whomever it was that managed to reduce CONCORD's stranglehold over Empire and the pseudo-governments, even slightly, I say bravo!

Oh, right, so the public demand for I-RED to renounce slavery, enforced by the outright military desecration of a memorial service and the assassination under flag of truce of their leader was really just a polite suggestion, then?
Originally by: ChipMo if you have a problem with a non-Star Fraction pilot, such as Revan then you need to resolve it with them.
Already did. She's still bitter about it.
Originally by: ChipMo We have many potential targets and hostile entities to prioritize, CONCORD is among them. It is not our primary concern at the moment though. We have killed far, far more Sansha puppets than we have CONCORD employees.
No you haven't! You've actually sustained more losses to "Sansha puppets" than those you've killed, your own killboards attest to this and the two most costly kills of the entire conflict were Star Fraction pilots directly assisting Sansha pilots in the destruction of CONCORD battleships lawfully patrolling Republic and State space by consent of their respective leaderships, trying to co-ordinate attempts to repel Sansha incursions.
This makes you not only directly and wilfully complicit in Sansha atrocities, but also terrorists.
Mr.Ixiris, I would ask you for evidence of your claims, but judging from the pattern (you've now been accused of being a stalker, admiring Archbishop and being a 'liar' all while subjected to various other insults, innuendo's, and general contempt), to use the Star Fraction Test, chances are reasonably high that you are telling the truth. While I will still retain judgement on how much Star Fraction may be helping Sansha loyalists, Star Fractions' remaining blue to them in wake of their public declaration to fire on those defending from Sansha attacks made pretty clear they aren't to be trusted on this issue anyway.

*Silas hold her temples in a pained expression*
90% of these posts have nothing to do with the topic of this thread, the Mekhios Rally.
You all (mostly) seem like educated individuals; excercise your God-given talents of reading comprehension (by reading the title of the thread) and please take the five-page arguments (on both sides) about whom is sleeping with whom and supporting whatever factions-fractions-sanshas-what-have-you to other venues. Some of the arguments have merit, some don't but none belong here.
Those points regarding conflicts of interest, and the arguments disputing those points, have been made ad-nauseum in other threads, to no one's entertainment or enlightenment. A cheerful guide to this particular thread:
1. Does my comment have anything to do with the events surrounding the Mekhios rally? If yes, procede. If no, consider posting elsewhere, or ignoring the baited comments you are about to respond to.

The Star Fraction are not blue to any Sansha's Nation loyalists. Another lie falls from your mouth.
As for Ixiris, he has his facts wrong. I imagine this is because he hasn't bothered to properly research the matter, not being motivated to look for evidence counter to his case, in which event he's just a bad faith critic or he has found the countering evidence and decided not to mention it, in which event he's a liar. Neither speaks well of him.
What are the facts with regard to the Star Fraction and counter-Sansha operations? The facts are that our pilots have participated in the destruction of ten True Power capsuleer vessels: three True Power Archon-class carriers, two True Power Chimera-class carriers and five True Power Nightmare-class battleships. In addition, we have destroyed many conventionally crewed True Power vessels during Sansha's Nation incursions. As far as Sansha's Nation capsuleer supporters, we have destroyed one such vessel and taken two losses.
We have also participated in the destruction of two CONCORD Special Ops-class battleships piloted by Haeldone Dorgiers. We make no apology for this. We regard CONCORD's role in these events as deeply ambiguous and highly questionable. It should be remembered that there are indications that this particular CONCORD pilot has passed information to pro-Sansha forces. In any event, our pilots are authorized to exercise discretion against valid targets and CONCORD vessels are valid targets when practicable.
To round out the picture, we have also participated in the destruction of one Amarr Navy Apocalypse-class (Navy Issue) battleship, for which again we make no apology, particularly given the Amarr Navy's policy of ordering Amarr militia pilots to fire on Minmatar pilots fighting against Sansha's Nation.
All taken in all, I think the picture is rather different, when you look at all the facts, than the one painted by Ixiris. For example, his assertion that the most costly loss involving our pilots was a CONCORD Special Ops-class battleship is plain wrong. In fact, the most costly loss was the True Power Chimera-class carrier piloted by Slave Endoma01, with the other four True Power carrier losses following quite closely behind. Again, it's fairly clear that Ixiris is only interested in facts that seem to support his views and not in the whole picture.
He says we are terrorists as if such a charge should dismay us. I would have thought it is passing well known that we advocate insurrectionary anarchism and revolution against state power. When it comes to statists and imperialists we certainly are terrorists.
What I want to know is whether he has the courage of his convictions and will state that in his view anyone firing on any vessel involved in counter-Sansha operations is "directly and wilfully complicit in Sansha atrocities". That, while not something I agree with, would at least be consistent.

The wisdom of Vulkor tells us that "...When two predators come face to face, either both will turn away or not. If not, the greater predator will have a fresh kill...". From all that I have read here Star Fraction has proven to be the greater, if not shrewder and more cunning predator.

Given the lack of a negative in what I said, I believe it is clear to anyone with ears attuned to what I said, rather than what they want to hear, that the answer to that question is 'no'.

Obviously, I bow to your expertise when it comes to this particular construction but your variant would appear to include a comparative. I see no such comparative in what I said, so again, the answer to your question is a clear 'no'.
