Kalle Demos Amarr Hysteria Nexus	Posted - 2010.11.12 01:30:00 - [1] Edited by: Kalle Demos on 12/11/2010 01:34:52 Perhaps if alliances had something rare to compete or fight for maybe blobs wouldnt be such a bad thing, I think the problem is the growth of production and lack of usage thats **ing people off. I dont think people have a problem really with blobs I think they just have a problem with blobs continuing to grow, at the rate things are going to quote someone from MC Quote:** this time next year "field ready" will mean being in a titan or sc Something of rare value needs to be introduced that will allow alliances to clash Then again saying that judging by the comments here the bigger blob will always win heh
Kalle Demos Amarr Hysteria Nexus	Posted - 2010.11.19 14:07:00 - [2] Actually Finn there has been alot of great ideas and suggestions but your obsessive replying makes it impossible for any discussion to continue. It is really creepy how you are always replying right after minigin and MF, I dont want to start an argument as I really dont have time to reply to everything you say but you need to put your personal hate aside. Obviously there is problem here and quite honestly if you want to flame minigin all day then you may as well bump his threads in AH and continue the flaming
Kalle Demos Amarr Hysteria Nexus	Posted - 2010.11.20 19:29:00 - [3] Originally by: Tu Ko I can't be asked to read this entire thread, and frankly I don't even care. However, the only thing that is really holding back the fighting in Eve is the simple fact that everything involving sov is wrapped around some stupid space structure. This allows for people to 'batphone' in their power bloc blues, so basically your alliance doesn't actually have to be active or fighting as long as your blues are powerful enough to hold the space for you. Enter the 'renters' These typically small alliances will pay their way into 0.0 and be stuck in a quicksand of 'never quite enough'. As they gain players they have to very quickly get into the fighting before the older players get bored, however they have several newer players that aren't ready at all for 0.0. End result the older players leave to join more powerful groups and the renters stay put until they just sputter out.They never get their hands on enough people to beat back the opposing power bloc and never do much more than bankroll their landlords. The problem is that for far too long the focus of CCP and its player base was to get every idiot out to 0.0 regardless of how little time they have played or how much per week they actually play. Most casual players have no business out anywhere in 0.0, but because of lack of content in low sec they go from newbie cub out of school directly into someone's carebear corp and have no idea what they are doing. They don't have the interest to pour through endless wiki's and how to guides and so they just end up just ratting until their eye's bleed. This pretty much is the best description of 0.0 For me I left 0.0 because of this, I get more enjoyment out of anything unrelated to 0.0 @ Finn - I think Blob Warfare isnt just linked to how many people are brought to a fight, I think it was pretty obvious what peoples issues are. I dislike the nap tactics where most alliances have adopted to have any chance at living, sov warfare is completely broken now worse than it was before and now everyone is blobbing with supercaps. You cant really blame people for quitting the game or 0.0
Kalle Demos Amarr Hysteria Nexus	Posted - 2010.11.21 03:01:00 - [4] Am I correct to assume you are saying "handle it or GTFO? "
Kalle Demos Amarr Hysteria Nexus	Posted - 2010.11.28 09:14:00 - [5] What about supercap blobbing? There is a thread in general chat atm where someone comments about the future of supercaps and I guess 0.0 I think it is a fair assumption I really would hate to see 0.0 turn into that
Kalle Demos Amarr Hysteria Nexus	Posted - 2010.12.02 09:33:00 - [6] This was a reply I made on this thread, I figured it would be more appropiate here, I know it is todo with lag but as you can see lag and blobbing go hand in hand. Originally by: Kalle Demos Ok well this is how I see it, bare with me here and I will try to be nice, I have noticed theres alot of damage control going on when supercaps or blobs are mentioned, I cant really understand the need for it either. Obviously it is common knowledge that players are willing todo anything to win so it is understandable why they would as you say 'cram everything in one system', I am going to assume alot of players are fine with this. By the looks of it ccp are too which would probably explain why they are focused on increasing the limit of nodes, my question was is there was an eta on when this would be fixed. I agree with what Akita T said, I am surprised theres little discussion on supercap blobbing (that really is the best way to put it), I know theres been a few comments that CTAÆs will eventually turn into Titans > Supercarriers > Rest, what concerns me and I would assume others is how much truth there is in this. The other problem is ofc no one risking their fleets anymore but I guess thats a different story, so while ccp have declared a battle against lag I was wondering how long before they estimate victory?
Kalle Demos Amarr Hysteria Nexus	Posted - 2010.12.11 23:09:00 - [7] Titans > Supercarriers > Carriers > Rest This makes me sad because I trained for dreads, commands and black ops In fact the only two ships I avoided were Titans and Supercaps, does this mean 0.0 is not for me?

Kalle Demos Amarr Hysteria Nexus	Posted - 2010.12.13 09:59:00 - [8] I too love my damnation, seems to be the popular command like an EOM BC It seems like supercap blobbing has become an open topic, I think once botting is somewhat fixed blobbing will become the new fotm Now I dont mind people building or using supercaps I just dont like the idea that their used on subcaps often, like the C3N- battle the other day for example, what I would like to see is a mixture of caps and subcaps being used, I would like to be able to use my dread for a change, or be able to use my command or battleship without worrying about getting DD'd Originally by: Kool StoryBro <--- Originally by: CCP Spitfire Spam post removed.

I guess we know why 0.0 is dead or full of botters, there isnt much a person can do without ****ed amounts of numbers / lag.
