Good evening all
Just brought to my attention by a frend in XETIC this is there latest brainchild......
On the topic of increaseing XETIC's numbers with alt corps...
Quote: This was already discussed earlier and turned down. I please the council to discuss it again and eventually vote on it.
As the war against S.A.S. has shown, some ppl tend to declare war on the largest alliance in game just due to the fact that we have the most "targets" for them to shoot. Declaring war on their main corp is also ineffective - they simply switch charachters if spotted.
I think this behaviour combined with a press release explaining our intentions would for ce CCP to change the alliance war system. From an ccp official we know that increasing the alliance by alt corps is not an exploit. So we are allowed to do it. To prevent bad reactions, we act offensively: We post our intentions. The griefers will complain for sure (what do you expect ?), the good players will understand.
Brought forth by: XF President
Yes im a alt (and a fa alt at that ) but belive it or not this info IS accurate.
I invite the XF President to say otherwise

Nykon, First off, it's sad that I'm even replying to an alt, but under the circumstances, I'll make an exception.
Secondly, if you have an issue w/ Conram or CYVOK, take it to them. Again, just like before, this is a proposal.
Third. It's not that XF doesn't fight, or can't win wars. We're not really concerned about the defense of our alliance, we have that well under control. This motion that has been suggested simply is being brought forth to help address the current (poorly planned) game mechanics. It's no more unfair than using dual MWD when it was allowed.
If it does go through, then the majority of the voting power in XF wanted it to happen. I don't see what is so difficult to understand why this is being brought up, or discussed.
The game has flaws. Every organization uses the current game mechanics to the best of their ability. I'm sure if CCP had an issue with it, they' contact Conram or CYVOK.
Why is it there are the vocal minorty who continue to see this as an issue? We could just as easily immediately surrender all wars dec'ed on us, but that would be a "sploit" too by your definition I'm sure....
If the game were perfect, no one would play.
Get over it, move along, nothing to see here.

Still pretty lame to be honest. Don't get me wrong, not labelling Xetic exploiters or bad people, but bringing alts into an alliance to artifically inflate wardec costs...that's weaksauce.

Personally I'm against the idea... but by the same measure, declaring on a 4000 member alliance with your 5 member corp, ganking solo travellers in a 0.9 system, and using noob corp alts at every gate into that system so you can hide at a safespot whenever even an even sized force of fighters comes to take you on isn't any better.

if a 4000 member alliance is whining about how they can't control a 4 member corp that has declared war on them... well that's pretty pathetic. -----------------------------------

if its small corps your so worried about why not use location agents to find out where they are and avoid those areas by smamming alliance chat. if ppl still get ganked thats thier own fault for being stupid and are probably the same ppl who send hatemail to someone after they get blown up while bein afk in .0 space. if the largest alliance in game needs to make alt corps to make themselves invincible against other ppl its pretty pathetic and shows your true weakness. it all comes down to if your not capable/willing to accept the rules of how alliances work you shouldnt have made/be a part of an alliance in the first place.
and tbh you guys do a good job of locking down empire i rly dont c why u need to make yourselves invincible to anyone who doesnt hav a 9 figure wallet, after all this is a fighting game. yes i know your goin to say "well if you want a fight why not come to our space" because 1) as u guys hav said many times its way the **** outta the way 2) youll get blobbed even more 3) u cant refit/repair get new ship ect.
your sheer numbers should make up for the fact u hav a few less corps than other alliances. it rly makes u guys look bad when u want to raise costs cuz u cant/unwilling to defend against "5 member corp", while theres all these other smaller alliances defending against other 5 member corps and u dont c them wanting to make alt corps to make it harder for the attackers.
your the biggest in numbers and claimed area, start acting like it.

FA would never do this. SE would never do this. G would never do this. FoE would never do this. Imperium would certianly never do this.
Hmmm... interesting pattern there.
Why does XETIC want to do this? To 'change the game mechanic'? There are other ways to go about it. Email the devs, post in the Idea Lab & General Discussion, petition when things go wrong, etc... But inflating war costs with dummy corps to "prove a point"? Bah.
XETIC is the largest and potentially most powerful alliance in the game. They should be trying to set the example, not proposing half-baked schemes in an attempt to provoke a response out of CCP. If anything, it's just as likely to backfire when CCP says:
"Due to the flaws in the war system, we have decided to impose a flat war fee cost of 100 million per week against an alliance. Thank you and happy hunting."
Personally, such a solution would suit me just fine but that's not the point. There's just no reason to do this. Small alt corps are lame. They always have been. I know many people in XETIC share this opinion and I hope they stop this silliness (assuming this information is real) before it even gets started. -

This argument is stupid and forfeit. I will respond, take it as you will, I will not post again on the subject after this.
The decision was one that Xetic DID NOT want to make. However it is our hope that by taking this action CCP will give a poor war system some much needed attention.
If you have an issue with XeticÆs decision to do this flame CCP not Xetic.
Simple fact is that EVERYONE in EvE knows that trying to hunt and kill a 5 member corp when you have 800, 2000, or 5000 members is nothing but a waste of time, all they do is log off an wait on an OOC alt until an easy target pops up. I challenge ANY alliance in this game to prove me wrong.
A 5 member corp that declares an official war against a 5000 member alliance are nothing more then cowards and grifers looking for easy kills and easy ISK.
If you are a 5 member corp that is truly looking for PvP your going do what Botox has done. Move your corp into the heart of ôenemyö territory and go after every target, combat pilot or carebear. Botox may be small and annoying but at least they have the balls to look for PvP against a PvPer instead of looking for the easiest no glory kills they can.
Just remember, if you log in tomorrow and find Xetic with 600+ corps complain to CCP not Xetic. As soon as a war system is coded that heavily penalizes greifers or at least forces them to declare a tough goal for the war, Xetic will recycle all the alts.
If you are a 5 member corp looking for easy kills in empire, we are going to make you pay through the nose for the privilege.
In closing 1) Yes it is true, Xetic has voted to take this action. 2) If you have a problem with this decision, complain to CCP not Xetic. 3) Real PvPers go after other PvPers, not haulers. 4) Once a new war system is patched in Xetic will remove the alts. 5) I will not post on this topic again.
Sincerely -CYVOK- =Xetic Vice President=

Edited by: RollinDutchMasters on 09/03/2005 07:05:05 Don't worry about it CYVOK. Xetic didnt have any respect that could be lost.
Could you do some alliance scamming operations next week? Fill escrow with trit labeled battleships, to illustrate that problem.
The only reaction you're likley to get from CCP on this is a drastic increase in the fee to maintain your alliance. I look foward to the maitenence fee being 10 times the current number of corps in your alliance, paid weekly.

still, for a 5 member or so corp to even declare war on the biggest alliance in the game and have the funds to do it, if they got the funds they deserve to declare war on the biggest corp in the game, whether its to gank little solo indys in empire or not ----------------------

Wow to think that someone would stoop so low as to accutally do this is beyond me.
I'm sorry but if an allience of 5000+ people can t effectivily defend and immobilize a force fo 5 then something is wrong. Even with said corp loging off and using alts, it should be dreadfully easy for any group to stop all offensive efforts of these people.
Resorting to questionable game mechanics in order to do it is simply below anything I thought you were capable of. In fact I'm so asamed I have decided to take my alt out of Xetic, in order to allieviate him of the stench of cowardness that will be inflicted apon him.

Speaking as a devil's advocate (geeze, this really sounds bad as my corporation is a trial XETIC member, doesn't it?), I'd challenge your question with this question: Why wouldn't they? You yourself have posted about war declarations against alliances being broken. The devs have said they would fix it, but it doesn't really solve the entire problem.
It's a bit like the jump in point camping. It doesn't make sense not to do it.
That said, I would disagree with the artificial expansion of XETIC. But we are a democratic federation, and my corporation are only trial members. ------------------------------------------- "My main griveance with the Caldari state was that once I had finished my work for them, they wanted me dead."

The 4 man "coward" corp wars the 5000 member alliance looking for "cheap" kills, so the (obviously quite brave, honorable PVPers they are... ) XETIC federation in its infinite wisdom creates alts to make wars cost more...
If all 5000 members post drivel like that, im opening a hardware store. The demand for shovels must be IMMENSE...

You yourself have posted about war declarations against alliances being broken. The devs have said they would fix it, but it doesn't really solve the entire problem.
First of all, I'm very surprised that this initiative would have Cyvok's support. But, moving on...
Why wouldn't or shouldn't they do this, you ask? For one thing, I'd wager that a large majority of their membership doesn't want this. I've talked to a lot of people in XETIC over the past few weeks since FoE declared on them. The vast majority love all the PvP. I know for a fact that a few weeks ago, XETIC was losing people left and right due to boredom. These new wars gave a lot of people in XETIC a reason to do something they felt was productive: defend their comrades!
I've made no secret of the fact to anyone that asks that I like XETIC. Everyone has always treated them as the underdogs, never given them enough credit, etc... Granted, XETIC has it's share of idiots, but for the most part they are good people, especially the CLS guys. I understand the logical reasons that the XETIC leadership came up with this action for, but I don't think they realize the in game political ramifications.
"We don't care. The game mechanic needs to get fixed."
Fine. In the meantime, you are going to lose members (and corps) left and right because there is no middle ground on this issue. The flames have barely even begun and, I suspect, a lot of them are going to come from XETIC's own members. To many, it looks like a cowardly tactic and it makes the alliance look weak. The XETIC leadership may have the thick skin to weather the criticism that is coming, but a lot of others don't or won't even care to try.
What does this action say to those XETIC pilots who have been willingly (and happily) throwing themselves against FoE, Supremacy and the rest for the past few weeks? What are they going to do now? Mine? Contrary to popular belief, and much to the chagrin of their enemies, there are a hell of a lot of pilots in XETIC would don't mind one bit that half of EVE seems to have turned red.
However, I understand that this action is not being taken against legitimate foes such as another alliance or a corp the size and power of Supremacy. It's aimed at little alt corps and such. However, how much damage are these little corps actually doing to warrant such a response from the largest alliance in the game? The little five man alt corps, while annoying and pathetic, are hardly a legitimate reason to do this and I doubt XETIC's true enemies will chose to believe that anyway.
For the reasons I've laid out here, I think it's a bad move on XETIC's part. This is not the best way to handle the issue and XETIC's pride and public image is going to suffer near-irreparable harm if it happens. -

Every member of S.A.S has lo-slots full of WCS, use gankageddons at 60km+, have an alt at every gate leading into Manarq, and safespot/logout whenever a group of more than 4 XF warp to a gate they are camping.
That's cowardly tactics of an alt corp. created specifically for the war.
If characters can create a corp. specifically to declare war on another, why is it so wrong that XETIC create alt. corps to make them pay for their cowardice?

My biggest problem with this whole matter is that XF Council refuse to counter the BIGGEST problem with XF:
Most of their members are clueless idiots. Look at the number of tech 2 BPO's lost to members transporting them through Empire. Those morons didn't even have the wit or intelligence to use alts to transport them.
XF Council need to start recognising a few things:
1. XF get attacked because they are the biggest. 2. XF get attacked because they are the most inexperienced.
This adds up to one thing:
Members of the corps. at war with use have risen to the top ten killers in evekills.com simply because it is so easy to gank and out maneuvre XF fleets.
I'm not saying all XF are n00bs but the good pvp'ers are so outnumbered by carebears that we're working our asses off just to stay in one place.
So how about the Council stop ******* around with lame tactics like this and start using their power as leaders of the largest collective in Eve to convince the dev's with open discussion and honest reasoning.

So you say camping gate with ships equiped to gank and run if neccesary is dirty? Using bug in the game is surely dirty.
Joshua, your (xetic) way of thinking is completely wrong. This is completely NOT honorable and smart.
Its the easiest way to defeat enemy that you cant defeat with your guns. This is lame and pathetic. ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

How is it a bug in the game?
A bug is the game code producing unwanted effects.
The alliance war system clearly does not have a problem because the addition of corp. members behaves the way it should. It increases costs. Anyway, I do agree it is lame but there are so many more lame things in this game to worry about like Arma's using 8 WCS and Megaulses.

This tactic should be below us.

This is some sort of tactics, as we can see effective tactics. It might be lame in 0.0 where u have map as your friend but in empire with thousands of people passing by its very useful tactic. There are also ways to counter it.
Artificialy increasing numbers in alliance to make war costs higher and eliminating your enemies this way is not the way it should be. ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Quote: Every member of S.A.S has lo-slots full of WCS, use gankageddons at 60km+, have an alt at every gate leading into Manarq, and safespot/logout whenever a group of more than 4 XF warp to a gate they are camping.
That's cowardly tactics of an alt corp. created specifically for the war.
If characters can create a corp. specifically to declare war on another, why is it so wrong that XETIC create alt. corps to make them pay for their cowardice?
S.A.S are the lamest gankers since Killer Clowns.
Its not lame, its effective. From your point of view its lame, cos u lost ships.
And you think its lame, cos u cant find any tactic that will counter this. This is lame.
They are effective.
1. Its totally legal. The GM stated that corps put bootcamps and industrial sister corps all over eve. I bet I can find these XX industry, XX boot in many alliances.
2. If you look at the number of member per corp today...
FA 83 per corp XETIC 77 per corp SE 70 per corp IMP 55 per corp PA 55 per corp FOE 40 per corp Kieretsu 30 per corp
You can see that we are pretty well up top anyhow.
3. Funny how a ship full of warp core slabs pick of indies is somehow cool when its against XETIC. Funny how people want to dictate our policy if we decide to make it more expensive for them.
Personally, I don't support this and I doubt it will be employed. I bet that even if it was employed xetic would have a higher member per corp figure then most of those bitter enemies crying in here.

The issues is that when any force which 'may' cause S.A.S issues appears in a surrounding system, they move to a safe spot.
If scan probes appear, well they log.
Then when everyone goes, they log back in.
This is not honorable and does not make for good game play.
The best descriptor I can come up with right now is lame.

I think the better approach for Xetic and other alliances that have a problem with the war declaration issues to just disband their formal alliance.
There no rule that says you MUST use the formal alliance system, it makes some things simpler, mucks up other things. If it doesn't work the way you want it to, then just don't use it.
Sure it'll be a pain to get everyone to set standings and all the other things you need to do to revert back to an informal alliance. BUT it will send a message to CCP that the biggest formal alliance in the game disbanded because they were slow to address and fix the problem.
So either disband until CCP gets it fixed OR just deal with it. Inflating the war costs by creating alt corps and joining them to the alliance is a Public Relations nightmare in my opinion. Perhaps you should you reconsider.

However about we let alliance play their game how they want to. Again, I doubt this policy will be done much and still believe our member to corp ratio will be a lot high then FOE for example. The arguments here are mute.

Originally by: Nyk0n Good evening all
Just brought to my attention by a frend in XETIC this is there latest brainchild......
On the topic of increaseing XETIC's numbers with alt corps...
Quote: This was already discussed earlier and turned down. I please the council to discuss it again and eventually vote on it.
As the war against S.A.S. has shown, some ppl tend to declare war on the largest alliance in game just due to the fact that we have the most "targets" for them to shoot. Declaring war on their main corp is also ineffective - they simply switch charachters if spotted.
I think this behaviour combined with a press release explaining our intentions would for ce CCP to change the alliance war system. From an ccp official we know that increasing the alliance by alt corps is not an exploit. So we are allowed to do it. To prevent bad reactions, we act offensively: We post our intentions. The griefers will complain for sure (what do you expect ?), the good players will understand.
Brought forth by: XF President
Yes im a alt (and a fa alt at that ) but belive it or not this info IS accurate.
I invite the XF President to say otherwise
Thats whut deep space is for, free warfare for all !

Let me teach you something.
They only ever sit on gates in inty's. If you see them at a gate in a BS it's because they're fleeing from XF.
They switch around positions arond the gates in Manarq every 10-15 minutes to prevent slow-arse cloaking ships getting a slingshot position on them. They see lots of XF in local? They safespot. They see probes? They log. They can see us coming from all directions due to alts - Slim Pickin's and MegaJay to name their 2 favourites.
Their love of running away from any force makes it incredibly difficult to kill them.
The tactic SAS is using abuses the power of megapulses, the virtual invincibility of 8 WCS, and the ridiculous state of probes being visible on the scanner.
Even if we DO catch them, the methods involve using a lot of ships. So we just get accused of being gankers and any hardwork actually getting a kill is lost.
That means SAS never get any hassle from pvp'ers. They're just way too lame and we prefer to fight people like FoE who have the balls to take it to a bigger force (most times).
If people want to pretend they re l33t pvp'ers because of their number of kills, fine.
Most of XF know SAS's kills are all ganks and never from fighting equal numbers.

Originally by: Rysse Andrama TBH its interesting to see that the people on this forum calling Xetic lame are probably the biggest griefers and lame smacktards in the game.
You lot use logon tactics and alts corps for this and that and when someone else does basically something similar you start smacking again calling other people lame.
The only reason you war dec someone like Xetic with your alt corps is so you can gank indys flying around empire and all in the name of PVP???? yeah right.
lame lame lame
And you are who? I'm at work, dont have access to the game, but you look like an alt for me. Isnt that lame?
I repeat. Xetics, you are pathetic in your actions and we WILL bring you down on your knees. Decision you have made, make you look stupid, unhonorable and lame. It will cause problems inside your alliance (some people in xetic know that what you have done is not right). You will repeat the same fate as CA. To much politics.
For me... Happy empire ganking of funny Xetics ahead of me 
no more posts from my side.
I thought these were public forums, and my opionin in the eyes of ccp is as valid as yours seeing we both pay the same monthly fee.
Unless one of you is from the US and the other is from Europe

Just cos a corp that attack is small doesnt mean they are all alts y'know. I know plenty of corps with memberships under 10, does this mean they are all alts? If so only about 5000 people play eve and the other 5000 online at anyone time are alts. I dont think so.

Bottom line is and EVERYONE HEAR KNOW'S IT, it's greifer tactics and lame.
It's done for soft large volume targets and no other reason. What makes me really laugh is the people shooting at the soft targets actually think they are great at PVP. Thats the biggest joke tbh.

Originally by: Tholarim Prometheus: You're making it sound like SAS exploit while they don't. CCP can't remove the oppurtunity for smaller corps to declare war on big alliances just because these alliances don't like the way that small corp fights. That's plain stupid.
Yeah, you're right, Tholarim.
I've largely changed my mind regarding the legitimacy and impact such a move by XF will have. I NEVER thought nor inteded to give the impression I didn't think it was lame. To a large degree I'm now of the mind that it won't solve much of anything. We're the biggest, and are largely "care bears:" we should expect to have griefer war decs made.
While no one should have to deal with the cheap and cowardly tactics griefers employ against our n00bs and mission runners, they cannot possibly be making an impact so large as to warrant this sort of reaction. Any member of XETIC should know damned well that such a distinction carries with it the liability of looking like a nice, juicy target. If you can't figure out that afk traveling through a war zone is f00king STUPID, evolution is going to take its course: maybe your next clone will be smarter. 
XF coddles its idiots too much. There are plenty of methods that can be used to avoid being victimized by griefer corps: inflating our alliance with alts to drive up costs will mostly help to preserve people XETIC is better off without.

They switch around positions arond the gates in Manarq every 10-15 minutes to prevent slow-arse cloaking ships getting a slingshot position on them. They see lots of XF in local? They safespot. They see probes? They log. They can see us coming from all directions due to alts - Slim Pickin's and MegaJay to name their 2 favourites.
Their love of running away from any force makes it incredibly difficult to kill them.
The tactic SAS is using abuses the power of megapulses, the virtual invincibility of 8 WCS, and the ridiculous state of probes being visible on the scanner.
Even if we DO catch them, the methods involve using a lot of ships. So we just get accused of being gankers and any hardwork actually getting a kill is lost.
That means SAS never get any hassle from pvp'ers. They're just way too lame and we prefer to fight people like FoE who have the balls to take it to a bigger force (most times).
If people want to pretend they re l33t pvp'ers because of their number of kills, fine.
Most of XF know SAS's kills are all ganks and never from fighting equal numbers.
Yeah, its abit hard when your opponent isn't a npc from an agent mission that sits still and lets you kill him, but actually moves around and apparently outmanoeuvres you. But then again, pvp experience isn't gained from npc missions.

I can't decide which is stranger:
a.) That one small corp like SAS is causing XETIC so much of a headache.
b.) That XETIC is letting it bother them this much.
I stand by my earlier statement - If XETIC does this, they are going to lose more members / corps out of boredom and embarrassment than if they just let things go as they are. Something needs to be done, yes, but this is not the way. -

The issues is that when any force which 'may' cause S.A.S issues appears in a surrounding system, they move to a safe spot.
Xetic did this in 0.0 for a fair few weeks when CA attacked do you think thats lame to?
This post is my personal opinion and not one of my corp.
If you are out-numbered and you want to safe spot thats fine with me.
If you log when I deploy my probes then, yeah thats lame IMHO. So if your saying a Xetic fleet logged when you guys deployed scan probes, yeah thats not on, but if your saying Xetic went to a safety, thats fine, thats why scan probes were added to the game.
Logging off when probes are deployed is very very poor. Exceptable reasons for logging of are as follows. 1) your house is on fire 2) Wife wants sex 3) Beer 4) Beer

Woa, didn't take long before this topic raised it's head again. I do hope for Xetics sake that they have been in contact with the dev's to see what was happening in regards to the war decs and alliance rules, rather than just complaining in private.
Personal opinion? Not a smart move on Xetics part from a PR POV, but smart from a "we don't want alt people fighting us". Thing is, from many people's POV, it just makes you look like you don't want to fight anyone. The leaders might not care, but membership? thats a whole 'nother story.
Alternate suggestions:
a) Have the corps that are seriously effected leave the alliance in the intervening time. They will be safe from the 5-alt gankers, but people who're *really* out to hurt Xetic in a meaningful way will go after them or hire others to go after them. Allows those that want to fight to fight, and those that don't to hide.
b)If you're having trouble in empire, move your empire ops to 0.0. There won't be enough targets for the empire killers and they'll either come to 0.0 after your numbers or they'll leave you alone once targets dry up.
c)Utilise third partys to engage your enemys as well, but due to the boredom factors you will have to pay them well. 
d)Camp them down continously, harry them continously. They have 5 members, you have 4000. Use that advantage, don't give them a break and ruin their "fun".
e)Protect your non-fighting members with your fighters. Have convoys with adequate protection. Don't go solo, group up. Have agent runner bases with protection on the gates. Hell, pay your own members to look after your people if they won't do this for the alliance.
f)Modify your tactics. Right they're using 8 WCS geddons, yes? okay, a good warpable, 2 stilletos with 3 scrams each. Might take some trying, doesn't work? Try something else. Put in a bait ship, they'll concentrate on that while your people warp in. Doesn't work? Chase them off, as long as they are SS'd they can't kill your people. During the JQA campaign, SUPRM came up against a whole lot of guerilla tactics. Some of which we beat, some of which we didn't. Luck of the draw and you just need to work at perfecting things.
These are a couple rough ideas, i'm sure with 4k people you guys can come up with some more and the logistics behind them. Remember, at the end of the day, if they're not killing your people, you are winning even if you don't get a fight.
COME ON XETIC, THINK!
There are ways to protect your people if you're organised that aren't pseudo-exploits frowned upon by a high proportion of enemies and allies alike.

1. Its totally legal. The GM stated that corps put bootcamps and industrial sister corps all over eve. I bet I can find these XX industry, XX boot in many alliances.
Hmm... I think I remember the wording of that petition and it wasn't giving the whole story. If i remember correctly, it was in regards to allowing training academys and industrial wings into the alliance, not in regrads to making 500 1 man alt-corps and stuffing the alliance with them specificaly to preclude wars.
Personally I'd like word from CCP on this one or a more evenly worded petition to the GM's. If something isn't forthcoming by the end of work, I think I'll petition it for clarification myself.

Unforunately scan probes were not around back then :( If so I would have been rich from all the abandoned BS left in deadspace.
But no Xetic were not outnumbered they outnumbered on many occasions and sat in safespots/stations/logging.
Anyway this is all off topic. People are saying that you are fighting alts with alts. To that I say use alt chars not alt corps. The above text is my own views which may not represent my corps views.

The fact remains that the LAST time an alt brought this type of information here, the same thing happened. Mindless spitting on us. Yet, we still have a much HIGHER number of members per corp then most of the alliances in the game.
Here it is again. Internal discussions posted by an alt in light of the fact that no action has been taken and again you got the anti xetic people spitting on us.

i have always wondered why i disliked Xetic so much, well this has made me realise why. Your members put themselves across like they are the best in pvp so deal with it like the rest of the alliances and fight it out.
If CCP allow this to happen i will be disgusted. CCP sort this out and slap these lamers before they get out of control.
i am personally looking forward to the day that xetic falls and we can have a decent alliance that will not whine so much.

Do you not see how sad you look moaning on about SAS,and thinking the plan is fine and defending it on the forum, i would quit EVE before i backed this move if FOE did this i would come on and say it myself, "its lame i quit" but i also know if anyone in FOE thought this was a good idea, they WOULD BE KICKED IN TO THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK!

Let me clear some things up for all of you:
*S.A.S are not alts and is not an alt corp, all of the characters are mains. We are a group of people who have fought many fights together and make a good team. *Our Arma's certainly don't carry 8 WCS, why do you think they do so much damage? *I fight XETIC on my own, usually about 3 vs 1 or worse, everyday before downtime when the rest of my corp is offline. We choose our fights and don't mindlessly jump into blobs. There most certainly have been fights between S.A.S and Xetic with about even numbers (we were still outnumbered), I recall a fight in Du Annes and one in Oursulaert for instance. But we would be plain stupid to engage 8+ BS when we have 2 floating about at that time. *One of the lowest amount of ships we've killed have been of the type: Industrial. *Upping the war cost with alt corps is lame, but you drop enough loot to pay for it.
Thank you for reading.

Dude it doesn't matter what the numbers per corp are now. You're the ones trying to lower that by putting alt corps in. FoE can hardly help that their corps are not as huge as your corps are. But they aren't actively trying to lower the average member/corp count by using fake corps.

Fact is, this was blasted over the boards by an alt a month or two ago. Nothing happened, we still have one of the highest number of members per corp and as such, SAS gets far more target per unit isk against us then against most alliances. Since that time, NO alt corps have joined XETIC.
Here, here we are again. Another alt, and again the masses of ignorant jumping on board to have a spit at XETIC without looking at the fact. NOT A SINGLE ALT CORP IN XETIC.

Still doesn't keep anyone from wardeccing you guys. RCU II BPO, 3.5b.. that's 35 weeks of war.. Random drop off a BS is worth 10m-ish. Kill 10 and you have your warfee sorted for another week.
All I can see is bad PR and zilch accomplishment by doing this. ------------------------------------------ I am a love machine, feeding my fantasy, give me a kiss or three, have fun!

Sometimes I think Trooper B99 should be made emperor of eve lol. Not once have a seen him make a retarded comment. I agree with what he says aswell, i`m sure that with 4000 members you could do something more constructive than use alt corps... herd SAS up and lock them in a system...like a flock of sheep hehe.
Using Alt corps isnt that way forward guys, you didnt survive the CA war for nothing! wheres the fighting spirit?
I`ve tried to think of a way to fix the war decs etc, but cant (ask trooper, he'll know)

you guys are. That's the whole issue. Not what the member/corp ratio is atm
NOT A SINGLE ALT CORP IN XETIC.

Quote: So what's that then primer? the fact that they aren't in yet doesn't really weigh up against the fact that you guys decided to go ahead with it.
To be perfectly honest, things get passed which sometimes are really not very popular. XETIC corps have the OPTION of making a bootcamp or whatever but I seriously doubt any corp will go that way (or very few). Nor has any corp gone that way in the past.
I think the alert observer should just keep an eye of the XETIC corp list and then judge the alliance on this issue. In my view, the fact that the corps did not flood the alliance with alt corps since the motion, is a testiment of how very wrong people are about our guys.

Ok so MoM is now dead if I was in an alliance I would be thinking of kicking removing it but keeping it in would suit your current affairs..
As for the Empire State Holding Corp isn't it suprising that it was created only 2 days ago? Coincidence I think not. This corp I assume it has active players in it yes? You have multiple holding corps why do you need another one? |

XETIC tried to act in "honor" for a long time, what gave them, nothing?

Make 200 alt corps with 1 member each to make the rich pirates broke 
If we keep giving away tech II bpo's then we may need to make an alt corp. each

But it is an alt corp   
As for being none of my business this maybe true but when something like this is brought into the public eye that a vast majority of the population don't like, a lot of things are going to be under scrutiny thier business or not. |
