Stormfront	Posted - 2005.05.28 14:40:00 - [1] Actually Cold, G logged off before we did. :D
Stormfront	Posted - 2005.05.28 14:43:00 - [2] Nope, local in that system dropped by nearly 40, signaling no fight was going to be offered. So we logged off.
Stormfront	Posted - 2005.05.28 14:56:00 - [3] Doesn't not putting up a fight = nullify a great percentage of this game? Anyhow, we still havent reached a conclusion to this war. Some ships lost does not mean we have lost. Or that would mean the Allies lost back in WWII
Stormfront	Posted - 2005.05.28 15:18:00 - [4] Quote: You sir are stepping perilously close to the line that your ilk crossed last night, and earlier in the week. Were the historical context you mention in any way accurate, I for one would have been proud to have opposed the tyrannical agressor you currently represent. No more now thank you. Aww get a life. First of all, I have no idea who posted that. So him being my ilk? Heck, for all I know it was you. Stating a simple fact is not stepping out of line? Seems you are very touchy about what happened. TBH, my reference was only to the tactical aspect of WWII. People win and lose fights, but we have yet to reach a conclusion to this war. If you did take it in a manner that it wasn't intended to be, maybe you need to lighten up and stop feeling guilty.
Stormfront	Posted - 2005.05.28 15:29:00 - [5] Anyhow, my objective in this game is to get fights and kill stuff. I'm not here to hold space, neither are most of the people I fly with. In the end of the day, I'll be happy if we finish on killboards with a better ratio. Happens 99% of the time. I lose some fights I win some, it happens on a larger scale, my only sorrow is when people will not present a fight despite having a very good opportunity of ending up even or even a victor. For most it represents time we put in from our daily lives to do what we like. If your intention is to bore us to death, then yes you succeed to some extent. But I doubt your members take any pleasure in that. If they do, then I'm sorry to say you are playing the game for the wrong reasons. Yes holding tactical advantage is important, but sometimes its fun to actually go in outnumbered and lose a fight but atleast come out happy that you didnt spend the last 2 hrs positioning and waiting just to log off.
Stormfront	Posted - 2005.05.28 15:31:00 - [6] Quote: you coulda used a he-man vs skelator reference I use any reference I so please. If you have a problem with the context.. I don't give a...
Stormfront	Posted - 2005.05.28 15:41:00 - [7] Yeah the North is a pain in terms of smack no doubt. We got told by your buddies up North to get Aids and die. Dunno if anyone petitioned it, I didn't. Though I probably should have. Shame he has been in the game for 2 yrs.
Stormfront	Posted - 2005.05.28 16:01:00 - [8] Quote: g/iron are 'defending' their region - so they'll sit tight and expect you to bring it. so why sit back behind a bubble, knowing full well you'd never jump into that situation and say "ok its your turn now"? am i missing something here? Yes you are missing quite a bit infact. Download and watch the ATUK vs FA video of them jumping into 5 warp bubbles and a giant FA fleet and doing well (not that much lag then). Next, keep in mind that G/IRON outnumbered us almost 2:1 with just there fleet, and had 90ish PA coming down the other side. That 2:1 odds (easily in BS numbers) they should have jumped in. But oh well there $15 and there 2 hrs.
Stormfront	Posted - 2005.05.28 16:02:00 - [9] Quote: Its a lie and you know that So you are saying you still had 117 in local with you in the system? Also, you clearly said in local, you would not give us a fight... so another brilliant reason for us to stick around wasn't it? ffs
Stormfront	Posted - 2005.05.28 16:12:00 - [10] Edited by: Stormfront on 28/05/2005 16:12:15 Quote: Errm...sorry, no idea whats going on there I was told I was treading a very thin line. My response was simply using a factual reference is stepping a thin line? I think not. Quote: Well yes, I must admit I was a touch taken aback, in fact I immediately petitioned the relevent GMs and got a most timely and satisfactory response, which did'ent quite erase from memory what had occured, thought my admittedly frail and oversessitive nature was somewhat soothed Again, my point about you being touchy had nothing to do with an alts post. It was to do with my reference to the Allies winning/losing fights in WWII. If you are touchy about any reference to this war or the time period. I don't really care. Quote: If you did take it in a manner that it wasn't intended to be, maybe you need to lighten up and stop feeling guilty. (shakes head as if dazed or mesmerized) Errm..ok...and the last portion, about the guilt thing...whatever might you be referring to? Sorry can't help you any further if you have issues with understanding simple English.
Stormfront	Posted - 2005.05.28 16:14:00 - [11] Quote: Honour? Don't make me laugh - invading someone who has no real interest in you is hardly honourable. Podding indies with supplies is hardly honourable. Hiring mercenaries to assail empire-based industrial members is hardly honourable - Maybe you're not to blame for that however. Go and be 'honourable' by yourself in the corner over there and when you're done come back and have a war with the North. We have had G and IRON fleets in our space. Just returning the favor.
Stormfront	Posted - 2005.05.28 16:18:00 - [12] Edited by: Stormfront on 28/05/2005 16:20:06 Nope they just flame us for not being honorable in game. Got flamed cuz I killed a [OCC]Wolf in my Raven and made the enyo warp out in our home system. Guess they do like even fights when they are dying. Got called a carebear, noob and plenty more. Didn't mind the tech II loot though :D
Stormfront	Posted - 2005.05.28 16:24:00 - [13] Quote: I just cant believe it, i actually fully agree with Diana for a change. Play the game and stop talking about it. Regards Plz do as you preach. Stop dictating terms to others.
Stormfront	Posted - 2005.05.28 16:32:00 - [14] Quote: you can post another 1000000000000threads about [G] not jumping into your fleet. Might have to, would probably take that long before they do... if ever.
Stormfront	Posted - 2005.05.28 16:36:00 - [15] Edited by: Stormfront on 28/05/2005 16:38:40 Quote: Then my point stands? I'm not saying that smacking doesn't go on! Look up there's plenty there for everyone, and it sucks. I'm just saying that if you want to fight someone else then don't claim to be anything. just do. Freedom of speech. I'm not gonna demand my corp mates(I have in the past however) to not go on forums and flame. They do what they wish. Morals are such an iffy topic TBH. I flame people in local, and if I wish to I will on forums. I'm not here to wish death on someone from some illness, nor am I gonna jump into a racist rant (I'm brown if that matters). I don't claim a moral high ground of no flames, cuz I do flame. I just keep it in check of MY OWN morals. Whether they are upto your standards is not my concern. And Christo stop frothing at the mouth, it looks so silly.
Stormfront	Posted - 2005.05.28 16:48:00 - [16] Quote: We said clearly in local, we would not jump in UNLESS THE WARP BUBBLES WERE REMOVED. A few minutes after the bubbles were removed, our gang then indeed jumped in to find your gang safespotted and in the process of logging off. Thank you for clarifying that then. You would jump in your 2:1 fleet with another section to make it 3:1 only when you had everything your way. Oops sorry, we don't wish to entertain you any more than the 2 hrs we spent waiting on you.

Originally by: Stormfront Sorry can't help you any further if you have issues with understanding simple English. Indeed, thank you for reminding me to further my linguistic proficiency in the Queen's own tongue, I promise I will endevour to do better in the future Originally by: Stormfront Again, my point about you being touchy had nothing to do with an alts post. It was to do with my reference to the Allies winning/losing fights in WWII. If you are touchy about any reference to this war or the time period. I don't really care. Perhaps you misunderstand me! In RL I am from what would have been regarded as a 'nuetral' nation in that conflict, so have no 'feelings' one way or the other about a long past conflict which I had no part in...though I do regard myself as a keen student of military history from that period, and would be delighted to have the opportunity to further my knowledge. The EVE universe though is set in a far away future, in a galaxy far far away, and I am at a loss to apply the lessons of a past conflict to our gaming adventures in EVE! Help me please, you may have insights and perspectives that may enhance all of our gaming experiences Oh one last little thing is still unresolved for me, I'm sure you could be of assistance... Originally by: Stormfront If you did take it in a manner that it wasn't intended to be, maybe you need to lighten up and stop feeling guilty. The guilt thing you mention, Im still at a loss, could you please give us some more pearls of priceless wisdom as to what 'guilt' I may be harbouring? I confess a selfish motivation here I must admit, for as soon as this distructive emotional problem is resolved I will of course be so much the better person I must repeat what I have already said. Learn English and use some common sense. I'm done with you anyhow. Back to making the 10000000000th post about [G] not jumping in till they do.
Stormfront	Posted - 2005.05.28 16:51:00 - [18] Quote: Perfectly valid, but then people who have the same view of morals and so on as you rarely have the inclination to bother looking at anyone else's. And you seem to have oh so much time for that from the posts in the above thread. Spare me the free speech argument as well, because I can discuss all day without even resorting to that sort of rhetoric bull. What I object to is people stating their little ideology (i.e. the corps and alliances you're all in) is waaaaaaaaaay better than someone else's because a) they're just Better(TM) b) they don't employ 'lame' tactics and fight with 'honour' and c) they are so more chilled than everyone else about everything. This can be applied to the northern forces as well, but I picked on your ATUK buddies' post because it exemplifies what I dislike most about the attitude some people bring to this game. Blah blah.. and then some blah. You may object all you wish. Makes little difference. Hope I made that clear in my previous post.
Stormfront	Posted - 2005.05.28 17:46:00 - [19] Quote: Yay i found the post where stormfront has contradicted himself. (see my post above) Yes, you are quite right. Infact, [G] do jump around systems 24/7. Heck just 45 mins ago, I saw one of them jump into EC from EWOK.
Stormfront	Posted - 2005.05.28 17:47:00 - [20] Quote: Were as you guys attacking are by ya own info, just pvpers with no family to support or protect, that should make it more easy for you to push the risk scales. Yeah, at night we do raid them with frigs. But then they wish death upon us by somehow catching AIDS.
Stormfront	Posted - 2005.05.28 17:49:00 - [21] The problem is you always wanna fight at your own ranges. Close with 2:1 odds and some 50 assault frigs to help tackle.. Sound familiar? We dont whine about how you fight, rather about how you DONT fight.
Stormfront	Posted - 2005.05.28 18:15:00 - [22] Edoo, keep in mind that most of the time we have to jump in on them to get them to engage. Yeah we lost some fights and won some, but least we went for it. Its what we are there for. Would be nice if they reciprocated every once in a while.
Stormfront	Posted - 2005.05.29 10:37:00 - [23] Edited by: Stormfront on 29/05/2005 10:40:47 This game makes it nearly impossible for a small group to jump in on a large group and have an even chance.. and yet we do jump in. Invasion isn't over. Far from it from what I gather.
Stormfront	Posted - 2005.05.29 10:57:00 - [24] Guess they didnt like your parties raiding there space either
Stormfront	Posted - 2005.05.29 12:24:00 - [25] Quote: i look that has [5] in it though is full of racism accusations, tasteless drama, smack, hurt feeling and generally blah Based on this premise, I would like to generalise that IRON/G/PA are all about smacking in local. Asking for people to contract AIDS and die. Stop this now. kthxbye
