You know i love eve ,i like meeting the devs but every time i talk to them i'm awe struck how clueless they are about 0.0 and whats going on there and they learn NOTHING from what happens out there.
Hey remember when dominion first came out and sov was stagnant for nearly a year.That was the hey day of alliance small gang pvp, it sucked the life out of eve no one even cared to even log on, empires fell apart out of boredom.
Look at what PL has done with capital moblity in the last year, punching much larger alliances in the nose and getting out and moving on when things get too hot. Nerfing carriers down constellation range is mind bogglingly dumb, remember in the old days when you'd still get the oh **** where did that cap fleet come from hot drops that you've "balanced" out of the game, you know the stuff that made 0.0 warfare and politics fun.
I hate the people that complain about "the blob" it's the stupidest argument there is.If your a raven getting ganked by 3 hacs on a gate i'm pretty sure thats getting blobed in your small alliance paradise would last about a week till 1 alliance teamed up with another to fight a third alliance and take their stuff it's human fricken nature and the numbers game is one of the most god damn important parts of the alliance meta game, using diplomacy to get more numbers creating an alliance culture that people will fight for ****s important and makes the game worth playing stop trying to kill it.

The main problem in this game is a skill and resource gap that can't be filled with nerfs and tweaks to gameplay.I've been in a few renter corps when they first fly out to 0.0, most times their membership have zero exposure to real pvp everyone is skilled towards missions, mining/industry and now their going to find them selves up against a alliance like goonswarm federation where many of the pilots have years of 0.0 pvp experience, with high SP chars, they just can't compete on the sov level against battle hardened opponents.
Also the out of game support structures are a huge contributor to our success we have a proper forum with comms and jabber.Many corps and alliances just use corps mails to give vital info for ops and news and don't give you much idea of whats going on if your not at that second playing eve.

The funny thing about botting is CCP created the current botting epidemic. After the moon mining nerf/rebalancing the only place an alliance can get that kind of cash needed to run it's self is botting check some of the botting forums and you'll find major alliances renting systems to botters since it's now the best way to pay the bills

Just noticed that only two of the nine CSM are in sov holding alliances.
CSM's talking out of their asses about stuff they know nothing about, this shouldn't be a shock CCP has been trying to kill null sec power blocs for 2 years now. The funny thing is that remember when we had the second great eve war, that was really fun the entire of 0.0 was set up in 2 camps it had a feeling of immenseness to it that made eve something interesting to play with all sorts of emergent gameplay and giant slug fest fleet fights that was amazing what their suggesting is a devolution of eve and will turn 0.0 into just another pve zone

Not everyone appreciates dividing Eve into two camps and duking it out in 10000 person fleet battles. To me, the only kind of epic that is is epically stupid.

Then please join a pirate corp that does small gang pvp or an empire war corp but don't destroy 0.0 so you can enjoy your style of eve.

I would argue that the enormous NAPFest Blobtrain that it has become what is destroying 0.0. Bring back the small scale 0.0 wars, and nerf the everloving **** out of massive blobs and NAP Coalitions. Don't destroy the older versions of 0.0 so you can enjoy massive PVE moon goo naptrain.

You know thats impossible right thats the thing that every one with your argument forgets that you can't nerf more being better then less at least not with out turning eve into something like wow battlegrounds Alot of us like big climactic fights they are a reason to log on thats why when the post goes out hey guys big fight coming ,700 people a side log on just to be apart of it, the game even sells it's self with that idea.
I don't understand the people that live in empire and think full well that in the wilderness of 0.0 they should be able to have a small alliance of less then 200 people with zero diplomacy no spys be 100% self sufficient from empire with all production being done in house and be unattackable from any one larger then them selves.

At the same time please consider that with only two out of nine CSM guys being in SoV, then CSM guys have no place in being in charge of what the majority of Eve SoV players want. (since mathematically the seven non-SoV guys will overrule the two SoV guys).
You make the very incorrect assumption that the "non-sov" CSM guys haven't been heavily involved in sov warfare for the last 5+ years. In fact, most of them have significantly more and better experience in Eve than you do.
-Liang
What are you basing this on? your using a highly subjective argument about your own style of enjoyment of eve and applying that to every one. EVE is a sandbox game that people are allowed to derive their own style of enjoyment from be it sov warfare empire production or amarr role player. All your arguments so far have been I LIKE IT THIS WAY YOU ALL SUCK FOR NOT LIKING IT THIS WAY!
