 Originally by: The Cosmopolite
Jericho Fraction and Omerta Syndicate are conducting guerilla warfare operations against PA/IRON/G/FE and the allies of those alliances and will be doing so for the foreseeable future.
I would suggest you add a number for us to the Pure Blind warzone marker.
This has just been a statement of fact aimed at helping the mapmaker.
Regards,
Cosmo
I believe he has this marker in place already : (1) Pirate Infestation.

Your right, that really isn't fair to the pirates.
(1b) Roleplayer Infestation

I'm not sure why the JF/O-SYN fight against a few of the northern corps would warrent a marker of its own. At most its a minor fight, one of many dozens that occur in any region, alliance held or not. There is no territory being disputed or claimed, no threat to the continued existance of an alliance and the scale of the fighting is likely to be tiny.
It's your call, but I would say that JF / O-SYN vs Northern alliances would still fall well into a generic "Pirate Infestation" marker.
Or my suggestion of "Roleplayer Infestation", which more accuratly describes the level of threat this presents.

Your ignorance is exemplified in your post in a number of respects.
1) The word 'many' hardly describes the ranks of JF and the vassals of JF that have heeded the call of their master to war as a mangy cur heeds its drunken master.
2) The fighting is limited to small skirmishes in the North, even if over a large area. The total fighting is minor compared to alliance vs alliance conflicts.
3) I repudiate the claims of the Southern Axis over their various territories. Also the Eastern, Western and Northern territories. Please place the map markers accordingly ("Contested" Hawkings SJ vs [Alliance] will do).
4) Pirates shoot anyone. They also generally do not hold territory, and favor small skirmishes over the fleet sized engagements necessary to take regions (usually). The difference is you don't shoot anyone. However, the marker in the Pure Blind area already serves as a generic warning of "Danger". A marker for "Danger (if you happen to be in a Northern Alliance)" seems redundent.
5) Yes, you are roleplayers and proud of it. Moreover you are also not dangerous to 95% of EVE, since you have not found a reason to fight with them. Hence you are often of no threat whatsoever to someone in 0.0, compared to the average pirate (They like the term PVP-enabled) who is. And it isn't all about endearing yourself to the mapmaker.
Whatever the case, I leave it to him and will not cavil at his decision. (Though I anticipate groans and moans from other quarters if the mapmaker does not awards you a marker.)
I've tried to approach this issue in the spirit of simply providing another viewpoint (and poke fun) in a community resource thread but obviously some have to smack it up. From those with no discernible interest at least it is understandable since thats how things are done here, but from those actually involved on the other side of the matter it is just pathetic.
I now give my word that I will say no more on this since others can hoot and bray much louder then I, I am done.

I think that not only should we include JF/O-SYN, but every single other fight between people that we can doccument. We may need to use map markers 1 - 193,242 to cover the updates for this month.
But it will be very informative.

The counter argument is pretty simple:
The map shows regional conflicts between alliances, for the most part, or conflicts that could be expected to result in an area changing ownership.
JF/O-SYN I believe may not recognize the soverienty of the northern alliances, but have no intention of taking the area for thier own. Also, you have said you dont shoot people other then those in the aformentioned alliances.
Why would the general public need to know that someone who isnt' going to shoot them, isn't contesting the control of that region and isn't in control themselves is around?
I mean really, what use is a "No Danger" sign?

Right, because when I point out that marking every small conflict on the map might create needless clutter on a work that mostly shows large scall conflicts (historically, not conviently) I should make my own map, and your ideas should be implemented. How about you make your own map and my ideas get implemented? Especially since mine would require no change at all.
The map could show every fight, and all the stances the fighters hold in relation to one another. But really, think of how many fights must be going on in EVE right now. Showing smaller battles opens the door to a wave of people wanting to get on the map for recognition/political/bragging/wang-waving reasons, more then the ability to actually change the face of the map significantly.

Actually my suggestion was for "Roleplayer Infestation".
But Pirate Infestation, a general warning of possible danger, would service just as well.

And Roleplayer Infestation would not communicate that clearly enough?
