And as the smug NC. bro said, evoke, solar, br1ck should be nowhere on the list anyways... (and probably not NC. as they couldnt do squat without evoke/ewoke and black legion propping up their numbers.
I'll tell you who else should be no-where on the list: Raiden. |

yeah... I just started hanging around in null for a few weeks. So... I'm pretty green on this stuff. Making judgement from what I heard on the alliance chat mostly.
Fact is that no alliance can claim to not have a twisted view of other alliances. The war in the North is the perfect example of this. NCDot claim "they didn't want the sov anyway" and talk a lot about how when the war is over and the CFC have Tribute that NCDot will go back to Elite PvP ~WulfPax~ and strike at their enemy from NPC Null and everyone will be happy and no-one will fail cascade. The CFC on the other hand, which for full disclosure I am a member of, mocks them mercilessly for it as we think 9 times out of 10 alliances go to NPC Null to die.
NCDot really believe their version, CFC members really believe theirs. I'd like to think that I believe NCDot wont survive being kicked out of Null because of impartial factual logic, but the fact is I'm bound to be influenced by the people I speak to. Another example being that I have never even dealt with say Solar Fleet. They could be mega powerful but I wont know that as we aren't near them (yet h0 h0).
Realistically the only alliance in game that has consistently projected it's influence in any meaningful manner over the years and is still around is Goonswarm. That's nothing to do with numbers or anything like that, I think it's do to intelligent and focused individuals coming up with creative ways to influence events. I personally don't see that sort of metagaming creativity from anyone else. They may have more creative FCs or more creative Industrial plans etc, but when it comes to bending the tools and the rules to achieve what you want IMO Goonswarm comes out on top. |

I don't really agree with their no prisoner podding strategy tho.
Not to mention the massive number of recruitment scammers .
I'll be honest I haven't fought anyone else in Null Sec who hasn't tried to pod me if they get the chance. If anything the Goons would be less bothered about podding you as they don't care about Killboard stats, and to shoot a pod wastes at least 1 shot you could use on someone else.
In terms of the scammers all I can say is vOv. A recruitment scammer only manages to scam the rich and stupid, for example google "goonswarm recruitment" and you see this on the first link:
Quote:If you gave isk to join GoonWaffe then you were scammed and you're S**t out of luck.
Likewise the easiest people to scam are the ones who really want to join Goonswarm, which generally know who they are. Even 5 minutes of research shows they only accept people from the Somethnig Awful forums.
While scamming isn't ~e-honourable~ you can't scam newbies (because they have nothing to scam) and you can't scam the poor (as they have no money), which just leaves the rich and the stupid. Let's face it, losing 200-500 mil in a recruitment scam is basically the same as losing a decent fitted T2 ship. |

People will mourn, but actually ,how many of them will come out and put themselves between the charging train on the track? I doubt if you'll want to know
If it was my call and some asshat had declared war on RvB I'd weigh in on RvB's side. Not that they'd need it mind, some of the best PvPers have alts in RvB and they have some pretty decent "non-alt" players. They've shown in the past that they can easily punch a lot harder then people think were they to need to join forces. |

And I am lumping several other alliances in with NCdot here, our bros in Black Legion, Nulli, and Gypsy, <3 you all. But on a battle hardened player for player basis? NCdot.
I wouldn't add your bros from black legion here. Sorry m8t. Not very smart move from your leadership... http://themittani.com/news/ncdot-leadership-conflict-puts-dotbros-risk
Good call. |

If you had to say best alliance in terms of PVP activity and achievement, organisation and fierce independence I would have to say -A- but many Alliances in massive coalition blobs would take offence at that.
Looks like the brainwashing is stronger then I thought in -A-, kudos to their leadership.
Please don't confuse "fierce independence" with "treats all your allies like crap so they abandon you". |

Lick faster .. the goon masters are watching!
Don't remember treating anyone like crap, I remember defending allies space night after night. Allies that then decided they didn't want to fight a massive blob and stopped turning up to defend their own space so they could Evac whilst we fought the blob? I remember people coming down saying 'death to goon pets' and then joining them first chance they got. I remember fighting every night to help our allies and some good fights.
Ah but you were not there .. not a good view from down there I guess?
Ahhh good, you're not letting trivial things like facts get in the way of your opinions. "If an injury has to be done to a man it should be so severe that his vengeance need not be feared." - Niccolo Machiavelli |

Don't worry, between the 70k of them, they'll keep finding groups that they can outnumber 5:1 and then chest beat aboot it on all forums. Sucking at Eve = new meta.
