Edited by: Elenia Kheynes on 04/08/2005 23:05:34 I guess it made a while people had seen any official statement from a dead alliance 
Although I'm not part of the XF, this is an official Press Release (as long as I don't flame too much I guess ).
This evening at around 21:30 eve-time, the station held by Supremacy in JV1V-0 in Tenerifis fell under the fire of a Xetic, RA and Foundation strike force consisting of around 90 ships.
The operation had been worked on for weeks, requiring heavy logistics to maintain the XF sovereignty on JV1V-0 and in order to prepair ammo stock piles. Its original goal was to cut Supremacy members' access to their assets for a decent period of time.
However, it came to our attention a few days ago that the whole ATUK corp had come down to Tenerifis to mine, and this 1 jump from JV1V-0. the goal of this huge mining operation was obvious: build dreadnoughs. Many of them.

Actually only one of the posts here could be considered a flame. Lets hope that wqe have some fun times.
Just so I know, why does xetic continue to try and take tenni? Its 74 jumps from anywhere, and as far as mining its only sub par. Surely, we own some regions that could be better.

At any rate, outstanding work. Now hit the cavalry when they come for their station again. Blast everything. Sit back, drink a beer, collect insurance...we all do eventually.

Fair enough. Guessing it would also be the easyest system to take, as it has onlu about 4 moons or so. 2 of which were bugged untill recently, and xetic mangage to jump on them quicker then we could.

5 play this down in public but in private...
Xetic, Foundation (VIRII), and RA invaded JV1V in Tenerifis tonight and successfully gained sovereignty as well as taking Supremacy's station.
There are 4 moons in this system. 3 belong to them, 1 to us. Apparently the moons were bugged prior to this point so Supremacy couldn't claim sovereignty. So, Xetic have sovereignty. Alas, they took the station.
Let me tell you what was in that station: A combined total of about 30 billion ISK worth of minerals (..from the ATUK mining op/Supremacy's stash) and a large portion of Supremacy's battleship fleet.
Therefore, these enemies will need to die. They have awoken a sleeping giant...
Our mining operation is suspended until a time which suits us better. We will first help our allies finish this job by eradicating EVE of all RA and Xetic.
Until we have killed these ********s, you are expected to be PVP ready at all times.

Oh noes, we napped most of eve and this happens. WE NEED MORE NAPS.

I do find this laughable that you guys are trying to claim this as a marvellous victory and I nearly wet myself when you said this had been a logistical campaign. Its been a campaign of CCP mess ups which sadly I cant get into what with the forum rules as they are.
However on the flip side its going to be so fun finally finishing you off for good and now that sovreignty issues look to be sorted you can finally be destroyed for good. Enjoy this moment you wont be enjoying any more. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Guess I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue...... |

personally i wouldnt say it is easy to catch 5 off guard. as stan said you have spies in all our alliances and corps.
we went from empire 30+ jumps into 0.0, without any opposition which surprised me. secondly we flew past losts of 5 in empire, surprised we werent spotted.
it was a well planned operation, well executed, and prepared for. its going to take you guys a long time to get that station back.

Two alliances (RA and Foundation) plus friends plus whatever is left of XETIC, planned an operation for several weeks to take back one (1) station deep in one (1) region, are cheering because they caught a corp on a mining op and were able to take the station. Furthermore the two alliances plus friends plus XETIC are now planning a joint op to hold that one (1) station for a long time.
Gotcha.

That kinda puts it in a different light, now, doesn't it?
It's a great PR move, but it's not the sort of strategic win that can break, or even really hurt an alliance. It may give your corps a great morale boost, which is always good, but unless you can hold onto it, it's not really a true victory at all. Given the effort that had to go into it, it actually doesn't amount to much. It would be like France bragging that they conquered Micronesia. Would anyone really care?
GL, and have fun, both sides, but don't get too pig-headed over the victory/loss and make this turn ugly.

The station (afaik) is now unassailable as the system is claimed by the new owner...
And it stays that way until 5 destroy 2 POSes...
Given what's left over in the station after the [5] guys who logged there undock.... losing 30bil & a bunch of Bships'll hurt anyone.
Sooooooooo - yeah, I'd call that a small victory  ____________________________________________

Planned for weeks in advance? You gotta be kidding me. There is no such thing as a perfect crime. Luck (or spies) 4tw tbfh. Still - credit where credit is due. Umm I guess that goes to Xetic - uh no wait, RA for their BS, or maybe more to Foundation for the sheer intimidation factor. Whatever - credit to the 5 haterz - you done good apparently.

GMs won't give them back anything because it was the way 5 invaded Cache and WC. Now there is massive sovereignty BUG and GM's can't do anything with it.

Well done then. I was having diner at the time but heard the news on ts.
JV1 is an odd system only having 4 moons, from what i hear its been a problem for Suprem with secure containers at those moons, various bugs, usual station problems. I have to give credit where its due to XF and so on for organising this neat little op and catching us off our guard.
However as others have pointed out this from a strategic point was... well pointless. We will see how the pos situation is, if worse comes to worse we have to wait for our dreads to be delievered.
Olyyy and XT, a nice last stand but i hope you see when we have that station back that XF is dead, it died a fine death to superior military power. Dont let it be remembered as a small force worth nothing. ----- Eris Discordia; I think the proper term is <3

Granted, Xetic took JV with deft precision. Granted, it was a well planned and well excecuted. (if lucky) Granted, we thought Xetic was dead and they surprised us.
Therein lies the key. We were surprised. Now think very carefully about the present situation.
5 still hold the surrounding regions. Xetic & co. are behind enemy lines with their position exposed. I put it to you that far from claiming any kind of victory, Xetic have merely backed themselves into a corner and are waiting to be bbqd.
Good PR exercise. VERY bad long term planning.
Have a nice day.

Collection of 3 badly bruised alliances (XF, RED, F) doesn't make a potent military power. They can coordinate one attack of this sort, but the nature of things is they can't sustain it for any meaningful period of time.
Their only objective was to "stick it to 5" which they somewhat achieved. But strategically they have nowhere to go.

Furthermore the two alliances plus friends plus XETIC are now planning a joint op to hold that one (1) station for a long time.
Gotcha.
Maybe a measly (1) loss for the 5 but it was a big (11111) win for xetic.
Gotcha.
Good point, actually.

Originally by: Griseus GMs won't give them back anything because it was the way 5 invaded Cache and WC. Now there is massive sovereignty BUG and GM's can't do anything with it. They decided do not interfere in that, and i think this remains untill next patch (who knows then it will be)
So the, by RA, claimed GM's/dev's in [5] can't help us? Damnit, I guess it's another weekend of shooting stations then, while I could have been mining veldspar.
Well, I think Shinra has only 1 POS there and the others 3, so basicly the alt above was posting from 5s point of view

Well, Foundation and RA be prepared for Xetic not fighting :D
We have been playing the POS game with xetic for months now.
Taking an NPC station does not mean much, if you cant hold the space. Lets see how long RA can hold it up. Xetic themselves will not fight.
TBH, we were bored with only having some random VOTF around our space not doing anything. This gave us a nice bump to actually get together and do something other than mining :D. Ooh this is gonna be one very nasty weekend.

Originally by: LoxyRider Well done then. I was having diner at the time but heard the news on ts.
JV1 is an odd system only having 4 moons, from what i hear its been a problem for Suprem with secure containers at those moons, various bugs, usual station problems. I have to give credit where its due to XF and so on for organising this neat little op and catching us off our guard.
However as others have pointed out this from a strategic point was... well pointless. We will see how the pos situation is, if worse comes to worse we have to wait for our dreads to be delievered.
Olyyy and XT, a nice last stand but i hope you see when we have that station back that XF is dead, it died a fine death to superior military power. Dont let it be remembered as a small force worth nothing.
I don't think this operation was pointless at all on a strategic level  Afterall... how much already ? somebody said 30 billions of [5] assets stuck in station. Well I guess it ain't bad
Although this might just be temporary, I'd say it was worth the effort and it's more than just some Alliance PR. We chose the right target and attacked at the right time. We did actually hurt the [5]. It won't kill them, but it will annoy them. And there is also the funny part of the story... How can an alliance which died approx a dozen of times according to all the statements you made get so many ships in one place and do such damages to the invincible [5] ? =] *cough*
Oh and one last thing Loxy: the XF lost all its stations about 3 months ago. It regained one from time to time to reloose it afterwards. Even if you manage to retake jv1v-0 someday it wouldn't mean you won and XF finaly died.
Be sure of one thing tho: whatever happens and XF or not I won't stop fighting the [5] until you get out from Tenerifis 
Dear friendly customer... Can I have your money ?

As has been said before. There is NO way to kill an alliance in this game if it choses to not disband. Basically, I can start and alliance and sit in station 24/7/365. And it will be alive as long as I chose to leave it that way.
This is temporary be assured. We had fun time with some Russians BS in F-E just later that night . Xetic have tried previously to take stations, but they lack the ability to fight. The only fight we get is the "planned logistical manouvres" every few weeks that backfire on them a few days later. And they disappear for another few weeks.

Assets are not lost, and i dont think any bs or ships have been either (there may have been ganks i havent heard of but there hasnt been any fighting). You havent done anything except annoy us a little as you say.
Originally by: Elenia Kheynes And there is also the funny part of the story... How can an alliance which died approx a dozen of times according to all the statements you made get so many ships in one place and do such damages to the invincible [5] ? =] *cough*
You call in 2 other alliances thats how, XF (which is actually just XT tbh or is there another corp still in XF?), RA and F, three alliances not just XF. And again no damage except take up some of our time.

So be it. You cant completly destroy an alliance and if XF wants to hang on to past impressions of glory continue as you are. But any ideas of actually getting Tenerifis back are nothing but delusions.
I think most of us are pleasantly surprised at this turn of events , gives us an excuse to stop mining lol. And no, this in no way effects our plans for dreadnaughts, im sure your pos will make fine targets when the time comes. ----- Eris Discordia; I think the proper term is <3

Lovin the Xetic last stand bull.....all this praise for an alliance (which admitidly I was once part of) can get all these logistics together to doggedly keep hold of a single region in a small part and with less than 300 members, yet in the dying days as over 1000 couldn't keep said area secure. Where was the effort in them days and what changed to make Tenerifis, and not Impass, Omist, fethybolis and Immensea a target?
Time will tell on this but IMO the end for Xetic is not near, but the last of the last ditch efforts to hold onto long lost regions will be over soon. -----------------------------

I dont really think XF is delusional or hanging to any impressions of past glory ... (actually when was XF ever that glorious? )
But whats left of XF, well actually its very core, XT, might be sticking to XF and its former territories because they ARE XF? XT founded Xetic back in the beta of EVE, i d be surprised if they d gave it up that lightly. Others might have done so, but for myself i can only respect the decision to carry on, no matter what. XF never was a fighting alliance (even if some part of it believed so at later stages), it was founded initially as a trading alliance. XF ultimately failed on a large scale because parts of it became delusional and were confident of their own greatness. Reality catched up with them. But i dare to say these are not the (few) ones who are left in XF. Whats left of XF is quite traditional, they are aware that they are no pvp gods, and i m pretty sure they are aware that they cant compete with a pvp force like the 5.
In the hard time XF obviously had and has i would say what they did certainly was a success for them. No matter if they had help, no matter if its only a nuisance to 5, no matter if its only temporary. They never gave entirely up, and decided to chose the hard way, and stay in their former territories. The easy choice would have been to disband, join another alliance, or just go elsewhere where its easier to live.
They stayed, and chose to fight. Maybe not as vicious as some pvp corps or alliances would, maybe they need more planning time, and maybe they have a lot more losses. Nevertheless they do fight for their space, for their ideals. And that deserves at least some respect i would say.
With that said, congratulations to XF for showing a new spark of life, and a well planned and successfull operation. Good luck for holding what you gained. And at the same time good luck to the 5 in retaking what was lost. I m pretty sure you ll manage eventually, but some POS's should be a challenge even for you. But then challenges are whats most interesting here ;)

An alliance that had the biggest player base in terms of numbers, and used to claim they destroyed CA has been reduced to a few dozens freedom fighters that has to call in two other alliances plus friends to retake one station, in an op that was weeks in planning.
You find it funny... I find it tragical.

Well done whoever was involved ...it has made heartening reading, Luke skywalker taking down a death star comes to mind...although the evil empire vowed they would destroy the rebels and threatened everyone with their plans for lethal weapons to crush alliance opposition lol...this sound like the ebil [5] alliance to anyone?
Originally by: FalloutBoy if its true suppremacy had 3 pos claiming soveriegnty they should jsut pettion it and ccp will prolly give the station back since its a bug :P
I think you mis-read the statement from 5.2s official forums...XETIC had 3 POS's (not 5), which goes to demonstrate that the real "victory" is the dispelling of myths:
1. That [5] control their occupied areas...as somehow XETIC managed to set up, supply and maintain 3 POS's next to a [5] station where their had been over 40 active pilots for several weeks...this is a greater achievement than firing guns and taking a station
2. That as XETIC managed to do this the claims that the uber [5] pvp alliance (5) killed off the ultimate carebear alliance (XETIC)may have been a bit premature
3. That [5] aren't loveable carebears at heart really who even blob roid belts with 40 ship mining parties
4. That [5] always "jump in" as they did not on this occasion, as their relief force (mostly frigates class ships), DID not engage and the operation sustained zero losses
5. That [5]'s uber spy network (which we are led to believe knows what we all eat for breakfast), didn't seem to pick up on a 100 ship operation planned for weeks...or maybe they did and let it happen to motivate their bored PvP'rs to seek "vengeance"?
...ooo and watch out of claims that they are "kicking" people for not mining, thats the cover story for getting their members into target corps and alliances

What XF did or should we say XT, is try and hold onto a region they hoped had no meaning to anyone. If they would have faught for Impass or Omist where ever it was they origionally resided for Months then maybe they could have taken some honour in their actions, but what they do now is hold onto some glory of the old XF in hope that Tenerifis a long forgotten part of the old XF territory will be left alone.
True its valiant if somewhat fool hardy of them to try this against the might of [5] but lets not mix this up with ideals, as if it was about ideals they would have faught like this a long time ago and many months before moving to Tenerifis.

I was gonna comment as i've been the one handling the petition going for the last 4 weeks, but then deleted it as it involved GM communications which would get this thread locked faster than people could say IBTL. We'll see what comes of this.

The sovreignty issue has been a pain in the arse for a while now and as Sengh says above me matters have been raised with CCP only for our suspiscions to be raised higher by their actions and subsequent Xetic actions. Of course to even suggest anything that has been suggested on our teamspeak here would invite a ban and ridicule on the forums so hey lets not go there but suffice to say there are many unhappy Supremacy members but of course if we say anything it looks like sour grapes.
Still as I said earlier this should be fun and maybe Xetic will have to fight for a change although I'll believe it when I see it.
*WARNING SLIGHT SARCASM AHEAD*
I think what has happened is surely a chapter of utmost importance in Eve's history. After all 3 alliances managed to get 90 ships together and take ONE station with a messed up sovreignty situation. So props for that  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Guess I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue...... |

it's thanks to my GM account I bought on ebay mmkay ?  Otherwise, when I noticed the 2 moons were locked I remember that in the past a pilot from Omega Corp (yes, Supremacy's daddy ) got stuck in the Amarr championship arena which was in jv1 and petitionned it to get it removed (in fact he simply got killed there by a Xetic ship and found necessary to find an explaination to this unlikly event). GMs removed the arena (in fact moved it). So thanks to Omega Corp I knew it was possible to petition to get the moons cleared  Since XF are quite fair game (in fact busy elsewhere), we waited 3 days before setting up our own POSs, Supremacy had 3 days to do whatever they wanted, which they didn't 
Finaly we also waited several days before attacking jv1 in order to make sure the sovereignty ain't too bugged which gave ATUK and supremacy a LOT of time to move their stuff. But they didn't.
ATUK and Supremacy got overconfident. Happens 
I'm sure u'll come back with dreads to clean the area yes, and then make a nice fluffy post about your final victory (yes, another final victory *cough*). But well, we've got some time before you get your dread built Enough time to invite some exotic dancers and finish the stocks of cookies and Quafe ultra you left in the station

What really broke XFs neck was internal disagreement and corps leaving. Same reasons, well the only reasons any alliance (nearly) dies.
What broke Xetic's neck was poor leadership. There was very little communication to the rank and file. Not once did I ever see the president or minister of defence or any official except for Conram in alliance chat trying to buck up the troops. Bad decisions, poor leadership and abysmal morale. There was more but a lot of Xetic's problems came from the top down. Anyway GL Xetic. Keep fighting.

So thanks to Omega Corp I knew it was possible to petition to get the moons cleared  Since XF are quite fair game (in fact busy elsewhere), we waited 3 days before setting up our own POSs, Supremacy had 3 days to do whatever they wanted, which they didn't 
Finaly we also waited several days before attacking jv1 in order to make sure the sovereignty ain't too bugged which gave ATUK and supremacy a LOT of time to move their stuff. But they didn't.
ATUK and Supremacy got overconfident. Happens 
I'm sure u'll come back with dreads to clean the area yes, and then make a nice fluffy post about your final victory (yes, another final victory *cough*). But well, we've got some time before you get your dread built Enough time to invite some exotic dancers and finish the stocks of cookies and Quafe ultra you left in the station 
Are you willing to post the date of your petition cos you seem to be under the misapprehension that we didnt know you could petition this, if it was found that we petitioned before you that would make people ask some interesting questions. Best not say anymore as it will be thread locked and a trip to Banzor City for me. Still fair play its made Tenerifis a hell of a lot more interesting. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Guess I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue...... |

What really broke XFs neck was internal disagreement and corps leaving. Same reasons, well the only reasons any alliance (nearly) dies.
What broke Xetic's neck was poor leadership. There was very little communication to the rank and file. Not once did I ever see the president or minister of defence or any official except for Conram in alliance chat trying to buck up the troops. Bad decisions, poor leadership and abysmal morale. There was more but a lot of Xetic's problems came from the top down. Anyway GL Xetic. Keep fighting.
That shows how little you know with what happend :/

HI MR. ALT!!! Can someone check his corp, I am at work and can't play atm. I smell alt troll all the way from here. Good show man, I bet you had all that bottled up inside for sometime now. Its good to release that hate once in awhile.
Feel better now? 
I do feel a lot lighter and more elated thank you for enquiring I couldn't post with my main as you might uncover an internal spy 
remember hate is a great emotion and motivating force...[5]'s leadership is using it as we speak, to quote... "Therefore, these enemies will need to die. They have awoken a sleeping giant...
Our mining operation is suspended until a time which suits us better. We will first help our allies finish this job by eradicating EVE of all RA and Xetic.
Until we have killed these ********s, you are expected to be PVP ready at all times." ouch...,feel the love

Yep they were, just depends which way you look at it right? Go controll GW slothe....
I love how you guys like to **** around with formalities while every1 in eve knows xetic and foundation are done for. You might not have given up, that's fine. it's like the body of a chicken after the head got cut off. It wanders artound a little bit longer (and might even lay an egg) but fact remains. IT'll die pretty soon.

Well i know for sure that theres 10regulars in xt and thats it. U proclaim ureselves uber for sittin inside fishbowls for and month and then hirin foundation and those tech 1 monkey mercs to come down to tenerifis and shoot our station whilst suprm arnt even there, congrats u are soo uberr. Soo now that u have the station what is ure next move maybe go retake another? then go and hie inside ure pos and let us take them back. What a f***ing joke, the reason everyone says ure dead is beacuse fu are dead u have no-one willing to fight for you unless u pay them, theres only 1 word for that im afraid pathetic. And whats this about "Although I'm not part of the XF, this is an official Press Release " whats the matter xetic not got the balls to post themselves maybe?? like Thol said ure already dead ure just throwin ure cash away to make ppl think ure alive.

And no, we're not neutral to anyone in 0.0.
Btw, I though you should know most of SNRA was happy when you quit as most didnt like you anyway, including the mangement team. I was the lone person sticking up for you.
Actually LD plenty of people left SNRA after that and said that had big problems with you and Nebba. I stuck up for you too.
This little revelation does however shed a lot of light on why that last meeting was deliberately scdeduled while I was at work and how my rl pic ended up where it did. If you recall, merging with SNRA was your idea, not mine, and you did it while I was busy with the BoSox making history and partying outside fenway park. Even when I left, I said I did not want to burn any bridges, and if we fought, it was to be a fight amongst gentlemen. But Lallante posting with alts, Nebba's lies and then the incident with my RL pic made me lose all respect for you and your corp. Its nice to know that I did not start slinging the mud. As for 'letting' go of these insults, you know me better than that. ----

Edited by: Saladin on 05/08/2005 20:51:37 I can't speak for the spec op guys, but you never killed any botox guys without a full on gank squad. Your skill is directly proportional to how many pilots outnumber people with. Its ironic that your last words in the botox channel were "enjoy your precious ganks", see as you are the one who goes looking for them. You skills at graphic editing are second to none, I must admit though.
Of course your e-mails to me everytime one of us died were all class. What I regret so much is that so many people told me what kind of person you were, and I didn't listen. All of us x-KOMR people regret ever knowing you.

But allow us our moment of triumph because that was what it was, a moment.

I'll describe how the [5] are trying to take over one of the POSs atm: -ships are tanked, come to POS and all launch drones ! -POS gets lagged so bad it fires every 5 minutes, and half of the time on drones -lag is so bad it takes 5+ minutes to log in system
You would have gained my respect by using some tactics with shield/armor transfer, the drones are just soooo lame ^^

stop being a joke fang, last time you killed a small POS sniping it from 155km because you found that due to a bug sentries weren't firing that far now you're using drones to complete your lame tactics. You wouldn't be able to do **** with your armor repairers imo without drones. ;p

Yep it was timing i must say.
Doesn't it seem a little shallow tho, the effort you put in, for what little you achieved. I mean the xetic POS is now in reinforced mode (the large one) and already we are retaking the sysem.
Surely you guys should spend more time or working on your organistation and general communication so you can mount a proper resistance, give us a proper fight. Or is it as we've been saying for a very long time, that your days are infact over (i dont not include RA in that statement, they are not dead yet).

Originally by: Elenia Kheynes I'll describe how the [5] are trying to take over one of the POSs atm: -ships are tanked, come to POS and all launch drones ! -POS gets lagged so bad it fires every 5 minutes, and half of the time on drones -lag is so bad it takes 5+ minutes to log in system
You would have gained my respect by using some tactics with shield/armor transfer, the drones are just soooo lame ^^
Do not insult the work of players that are better than you, resent meant is a very bad thing and from someone who requested the assistance of 3 alliances to bring a fleet down that was near impossible to engage b/c oft he instablity of the servers your words wreak of hypocrisy.
edit: also regarding lag, if we were using it as a tactic why in hells name would we request a GM to visit the system and also request to GM's that the system resources be boosted.

stop being a joke fang, last time you killed a small POS sniping it from 155km because you found that due to a bug sentries weren't firing that far now you're using drones to complete your lame tactics. You wouldn't be able to do **** with your armor repairers imo without drones. ;p
summary: waaa waaaa waaa my POS is getting toasted oh noes I thought large guns was supposed to make it invulnerable.
Also if you read the forums the 150km on smalls isnt a bug. Its just an undocumented feature

Well as said before. They are capable of well planned logistic moves. But Xetic don't fight (least whats left). Its setting up POS to put us in a deadlock. Which failed and now Ollyyy is unhappy.

LOL...i can't believe this. I was out with a corpmate and RL friend yesterday (actually,the one that got me into this game) and we were discussing the new POS and sovereignity issues. At some point we were thinking just that,how a smaller force could cause problems to a larger one through superior logistics instead of the traditional PvP approach.
This is a totally new approach to territorial control,especially if someone has some more members to enforce it with. Imagine 2 freighters with a strong convoy and good scouting coming to supply POS once or twice a month.You could leave a hauling alt logged off in system,dump all the fuel from the freighter in one POS and move it to the rest with the hauling alt.Dreads will make this more challenging,all in all more variety and new things to consider in the game,which can't be bad.
In general,nice move by XF,i just wish there was such stubborness in the alliance when we were part of it and getting constantly outblobbed in immensea.
It may not last,but it sure is a nice way to spend any surplus money. ****ing off enemies is always cool You can just disregard any comments about it being strategically useless,it's true but i'm sure it makes you all warm and fuzzy inside that you caught them with their pants down.Plus the flames are funny

you need the station to dump the fuel 
cant dump it directly from freighters. that makes it alot harder
on another note, the exploit accusations are hilarious. But time will tell who will prevail.

We went to the pos with remote reps on and some other skrits and launched drones (mostly light) to draw the fire of the guns from us, whilst we worked together repping eachother despite the lag and yes we lost a couple of bs but thats to be expected taking on a pos with 2 large 8 medium and 2 small arties on, not to mention the warp disruption and stasis webification batteries.
Just because you used FSA's trust to decieve people and got kicked, dont be bitter, if anything respect us for doing something i dont think many other people in eve would and thats kill the pos with all these guns and warp disruption at close range

Yes. 4 hours of hard work taking down an armed pos was ruined on the whim of a GM who doesn't seem to have a clue what he's doing. We have alot of angry people here. They are classing using drones as a bloody exploit.

Okay..... that is absolutely lame. If using drones to draw fire from a POS is an exploit, then shouldn't it be an exploit for doing the same thing to NPC rats?  
How bout it being an exploit to run a POS out of ammo, or starve it out, or remote rep it's damage, or heck, even kill it with anythign but a dreadnaught. CCP doesn't much like player creativity beyond what they planned anymore.....

the problem:- using drones a POS to draw fire has the side effect of lag
the solution:- implementing manual targetting for the POS so you just shoot the bships.
thats really meant for a different section, but just an idea.
on a sidenote it would have been better for XF to not say anything, and let 5 acknowledge them for the achievement, rather than all the 5 forum warriors promising death, and all the 5 haters congratulating. -------- wannabe gangsta |

1) Petition and have a [5] rep contact kieron via e-mail at [email protected]. Might be worth seeing if any are on irc tomorrow and have a chat as well so you can get the full story for yourselves and everyone else thinking of hitting POS.
2)Don't post while angry, get an early night, sounds like an immediatley unfixable problem.

Edited by: Elenia Kheynes on 06/08/2005 00:24:04 I'm going to specify:
-edited: I won't describe an exploit -8/9 drones per ship, replaced when shot down. Drones were not able to shoot POS (so were not used as a weapon) but were used only to take fire. -to summarize, this tactic permitted to avoid getting shot by POS. -you could with a small fleet take over any POS without any risk (weeee Dominix ftw !)
Consequence: Dreadnough = USELESS.
This tactic had also a side effect: terrible lag
It was a stupid idea and it was lame. And all this to retake a station that had no strategic interest heh ?
and finaly, XF POS was bugged: it was using 1.5 days of strontiums in 2 hours ^^
Oh and I forgot: the [5] are the ones who called the GM =^.^= (they were complaining about the lag they had created)

Organising 80 people to attack an armed POS, having the entire dynamic of the sitation totally skewed against you after your entire *effort* to destroy a POS over a period of 4 hours rendered a waste of time on the quickly decided whim of a GM to declare an exploit in drones attacking a POS. Hell we had tactics that required constant micromanaging of our ships through this entire attack that required utter dedication to keep yourself and your friends alive through the assault. That is effort and skill.
Drones have been used against POS' ever since they first came into the game, we've used them before and they did damage stations and pos, they did infact add a significant amount of damage. No-one intended any exploits, hell no-one even knew that large guns are bugged against drones.

I remember when target painters first got introduced to the game,shinra took the e8 station in immensea by using tons of tech2 painters and drones in just 1-2 hours with a 28 ship fleet.It was the first time i saw so many typhoons instead of tempests in a fleet(there was no lag as the "effects off" command was introduced in that patch along with painters). People in XF petitioned it and nothing happened,although painters were subsequently considered overpowered and got nerfed.
Stuff like that happens and is to be expected in a game like EvE,where there are so much different variables to balance,not to mention the bugs that will surface every now and then.
NBSI suffered from a series of issues when taking down Xelas POS's in v7-mid recently.Stations would re-enter reinforced mode as soon as the timer expired and GM's weren't able to determine if it was an exploit (where they would take them off reinforced mode) or just a bug,so we had to keep people logged on for ages,just to see when we would eventually be able to shoot them.
If you use different stacks of strodium (which is an exploit afaik),this happens.However,having sovereignity (Xelas did at that point) reduces the amount of fuel required. The GM's couldn't tell if Xelas deliberately used different stacks,or the fuel bonus resulted in leftover stacks of strodium,hence a new reinforced cycle.In the end,we had to wait 1-2 days more untill all the fuel ran out.
Generally,POS's are having lots of issues,it's not worth risking a ban by insulting CCP employees over this. Sure,you got the shaft,others did too though.No big deal imo.

Well, you happen to use whatever drones you happen to have, hell, they weren't even planned to be used, you just use them to expedite the unpleasent wait involved in draining 40mil odd worth of shields.

Originally by: Elenia Kheynes Edited by: Elenia Kheynes on 06/08/2005 00:24:04 I'm going to specify:
-edited: I won't describe an exploit -8/9 drones per ship, replaced when shot down. Drones were not able to shoot POS (so were not used as a weapon) but were used only to take fire. -to summarize, this tactic permitted to avoid getting shot by POS. -you could with a small fleet take over any POS without any risk (weeee Dominix ftw !)
Consequence: Dreadnough = USELESS.
This tactic had also a side effect: terrible lag
It was a stupid idea and it was lame. And all this to retake a station that had no strategic interest heh ?
and finaly, XF POS was bugged: it was using 1.5 days of strontiums in 2 hours ^^
Oh and I forgot: the [5] are the ones who called the GM =^.^= (they were complaining about the lag they had created)
lets sum up here....
1. Drones have been in the game all the time and been a part of u DEFENCE right?..... saying u cant use drones to defend u against fire from a pos is kinda the same as saying well u cant use drones to take fire from anything... tbh what they should do is fix the target rotating time vs loocking time..
2. Dread are planned to be POS killers... ohh well glad i am not gallente cause the mosros cant use one of its weapon..
3. that pos where not DefenceLess Cause 5 lost BS and loads of drones.....
4. and u point about drones cant be launched when not shooting others are kinda way out in the forest cause then u also say u cant lauch drones in long range fleet battles to make it harder to target(some dont use overwiev ROFL) because at 100 km u cant attack whit u drones.
thats a few points of wiev and i could go on..... but lets stop here for now.

Originally by: BlackDog Rackh'am I remember when target painters first got introduced to the game,shinra took the e8 station in immensea by using tons of tech2 painters and drones in just 1-2 hours with a 28 ship fleet.It was the first time i saw so many typhoons instead of tempests in a fleet(there was no lag as the "effects off" command was introduced in that patch along with painters). People in XF petitioned it and nothing happened,although painters were subsequently considered overpowered and got nerfed.
Stuff like that happens and is to be expected in a game like EvE,where there are so much different variables to balance,not to mention the bugs that will surface every now and then.
NBSI suffered from a series of issues when taking down Xelas POS's in v7-mid recently.Stations would re-enter reinforced mode as soon as the timer expired and GM's weren't able to determine if it was an exploit (where they would take them off reinforced mode) or just a bug,so we had to keep people logged on for ages,just to see when we would eventually be able to shoot them.
If you use different stacks of strodium (which is an exploit afaik),this happens.However,having sovereignity (Xelas did at that point) reduces the amount of fuel required. The GM's couldn't tell if Xelas deliberately used different stacks,or the fuel bonus resulted in leftover stacks of strodium,hence a new reinforced cycle.In the end,we had to wait 1-2 days more untill all the fuel ran out.
Generally,POS's are having lots of issues,it's not worth risking a ban by insulting CCP employees over this. Sure,you got the shaft,others did too though.No big deal imo.
someone didnt come nerf target painters on the spot, or fix anything else within 5 minutes, they let it ride found possible problem and fixed it, not reverse and change the game in 5 minutes. -----------------

That's true,although if they had fixed it on the spot,it would be your side on the receiving end again.I believe we would be seeing even worse flaming from both sides in that case,since things were much more intense at that point.
In anyway,good luck to all parties involved and,even though it might be difficult, try to have fun. Siege situations are always boring for everyone and most of the time the side that is the most persistent is the one that wins in the end.

Hi in regards to this incident, and actually several others that have been posted by xetic in the past... We did not have a lot of painters on the station. I was there for more or less every station taking that xetic complained about, and at no time where there painters used in excess. And if you do the math, 28 ships, doing only 250dps each, can take a station in a couple hours.
As for the POS in the factory system (the one mounths ago, and nearest to the refine station) there was a GM onsite during the opperation. I'm certain that if he saw an exploit, or a bug he would have stoped the opp.
As it stands right now, I wouldn't blame my allience mates for being rather pee'd at the whole ordeal. Who would have guessed that in a million years that using drones to draw fire wold be considered an exploit. And yes, we did lose ships to the sentry guns fireing on us.
Guess I'll have to remember the drones next time someone jammes me and launches drones to prevent FOF's.

From what I heard some ships warped alone to POS at the beginning and died. 1 or 2 died like this.
You lost what... 3 BSs in attacking a POS that was FULLY FITTED with defenses and had for 36 HOURS of strontium chlorates ?!???? You gotta be kidding me. This drone thing was a complete joke. I found it extremly unhealthy/ironic to have the [5] petitionning CCP for a lag they were voluntary creating ! The XF POS had EVERYTHING. I mean small guns, medium guns and large ones. And your 40 BSs fleet could take on it like a chainsaw on butter ? It was a joke.
I mean, I really started to get ****ed whne reinforced mode activated for 2 hours instead of 36... So now you can prepare thing as well as possible and it just doesn't change anything because a stupid bug gotta **** everything up ?
This drone trick was an abuse. I hope I'll never see this again. Concerning the comments on the gallente dread, remember it has 3 turrets hardpoints. Drones were prolly thought as a nice advantage for battles and not for siege mode.

U didn`t flew one so refrain from making assumption on how it was suposed to or not to work, we have the patience to wait for a response from CCP concerning this matter ... btw they changed the rules without a prior warning...so we`ll see

ollyyy use your main for once dude. Every1 knows it's you.
It's a pathetic way of defending space. Also when ccp takes away our only way of dealing with pos's atm. I don't care how. But either way those pos's are going down. we'll do another tactic tommorow that won't make you go run to the gms. But if they keep this decision, things will change. And i want my pos lost to an exactly similar attack back as well. kthnx.
IMO they should let this ride like targetpainters, sovereignty bugs etc etc. Since in the long run it ain't gonna make a difference.

I think the total BS losses were 5 all-together. Not certain, thats the number floating around.
As for the drones. Its the same principal as useing light drones against a jammed raven. No one at the time knew that the did no damage to the structure, how could we, theres no log for drones hits. Why sit and take a beating from large sentrys when you can have your drones do it for you. We've done it before, and had it done to us as well. No one complained untill now.
And the petition that started this whole thing was indeed made by xetic. If you want to call drones abuse then your entitled your opion, though I'm certainly not going to agree with you. I'm actually fairly certain that nearly every POS that has been taken down since the patch, was done with drones in space as well. No one yet has considered it lame untill xetic were lossing.

Slightly offtopic, but: Has anyone else noticed that The Five have raised forum propaganda to a high art? It appears that whenever anything occurs that does not go their way, a veritable flood of people crawl out of the woodwork (like kicking over an anthill) to vomit forth their displeasure in front of all. I'm sorry if I just can't build any sympathy toward you guys, not that it matters.
The same effect is interesting to watch in other contexts as well; it is used to give other players the impression that they are winning, and thus discourage the enemy from fighting.
Yes, I'm an alt, and damned proud of it. Anyways, carry on!

The bottom line here, which is what is causing so much bitter arguing and poleswinging, is that certain aspects of this game are not sufficiently developed enough to be made such integral parts of the game. POS are a perfect example and represent one of the worst (if not the worst) implementations in this game to me. A complicating factor is the far less than perfect response from the game's customer support in handling these issues. Although, to be fair, you couldn't pay me enough money to try and fill their shoes. Ya know, it's days like these that playing Eve reminds my of using that piece of crud called Windows Millenium Edition.
There's no use in bickering with each other. What's really at the heart of this is not your in-game adversary's uber skills or complete lack thereof, but the people to whom you send your monthly fee to play.
No ggz today tbh.

Well, if an enemy is going to give up that easy, they don't deserve the pleasure of a fight in-game.
There is a heck of a lot of [5] on the forums tho. Still, no one should have to get bent over a barrel when the game doesn't work right - not even [5].

After seeing drones being used by THOUSANDS of players each day including POS killing I find it extremely odd and totally outside reason to suddenly catagorize it as an exploit.
From taking stations and POS' down several times I can tell you that 100 ppl in local in a remote 0.0 system taking a station lags, no matter what you do (drones in or out).
There has been absolutely NO exploiting going on in taking the Xetic POS down and any one including GMs to state otherwise is pure ignorance and should result in a stripping of their GM rights as this specific situation is so biased it's not even a little funny.
I hope CCP has the enlightenment to fix this utter disgrace and biased GM act - it's treason against the EVE playerbase and a total outrage.

Originally by: Coasterbrian Okay..... that is absolutely lame. If using drones to draw fire from a POS is an exploit, then shouldn't it be an exploit for doing the same thing to NPC rats?  
How bout it being an exploit to run a POS out of ammo, or starve it out, or remote rep it's damage, or heck, even kill it with anythign but a dreadnaught. CCP doesn't much like player creativity beyond what they planned anymore.....
kind makes you wonder if you jump into a fleet with tons of drones out. Can you now petition it as a exploit since they increase lag ???

What really broke XFs neck was internal disagreement and corps leaving. Same reasons, well the only reasons any alliance (nearly) dies.
What broke Xetic's neck was poor leadership. There was very little communication to the rank and file. Not once did I ever see the president or minister of defence or any official except for Conram in alliance chat trying to buck up the troops. Bad decisions, poor leadership and abysmal morale. There was more but a lot of Xetic's problems came from the top down. Anyway GL Xetic. Keep fighting.
That shows how little you know with what happend :/
I was grunt. But Olyyy was in my corp and so was SJ Talsar so I'm a little more informed than you think. I also fought for Xetic until the day CLS and DDC split off. Fighting against MASS in Feyth and RA and Devil's Brigade in Omist. And I remember seeing how lost we seemed. How few true leaders there were in Xetic. How few people could actually motivate people and get things done. Xetic needed better leadership than it had. It's not just the fault of the leaders there were plentyu of people who decided to sit out the war and either hang in empire or npc. But there were plenty of people willing to fight if someone showed them a way to win.

The question should be: Does CCP intend for the game mechanics to allow drones to both distract and lag POS defenses such that a fleet can more or less easily take out a fully armed, online, defended POS without the use of dreads, with minimal losses, and in a relatively short time? If they do, then this is not an abuse of game mechanics. If they do not, then it is.

Just in summery of what was said by the GM, not an exact quote.
[5]: When was this classifyed as an exploit? GM: A couple minutes ago.
But, do you know what it truely pathetic here?
The fact that in a vitual world, you are so cowardly that you need to hide the idenity of your fictional charactor, when making a statment against your enemy.

Originally by: Melea So you now consider yourself the arbiter of whether or not something is an exploit, rather than GMs who are employed by CCP? Wow.
I think you missed the point. If it was an exploit, how come CCP has never moved itself to do anything about it (including identify it) until now? Where have they been during all of the other "exploited" POS assaults? In addition, the way this situation was handled left quite a bit to be desired. They write stupid logic into their POS guns and we lose a whole two days of work as a result. Not to mention the fact that a GM made the call on whether it was an exploit.
It's stupid to argue over it. POS (and soveriegnty to boot) have been the source of so many headaches in Eve since the day they came out. How many threads have we seen lamenting their unpredictable behavior to be followed up by the same from the GMs? This is just more of the same. I mean, seriously, why even bother? If CCP want POS to be a major part of Eve, they need to eliminate all these problems before they make these concepts so significant in the game.

Originally by: Drilla After seeing drones being used by THOUSANDS of players each day including POS killing I find it extremely odd and totally outside reason to suddenly catagorize it as an exploit.
The question should be: Does CCP intend for the game mechanics to allow drones to both distract and lag POS defenses such that a fleet can more or less easily take out a fully armed, online, defended POS without the use of dreads, with minimal losses, and in a relatively short time? If they do, then this is not an abuse of game mechanics. If they do not, then it is.
Quote: From taking stations and POS' down several times I can tell you that 100 ppl in local in a remote 0.0 system taking a station lags, no matter what you do (drones in or out).
There has been absolutely NO exploiting going on in taking the Xetic POS down and any one including GMs to state otherwise is pure ignorance and should result in a stripping of their GM rights as this specific situation is so biased it's not even a little funny.
So you now consider yourself the arbiter of whether or not something is an exploit, rather than GMs who are employed by CCP? Wow.
Quote: I hope CCP has the enlightenment to fix this utter disgrace and biased GM act - it's treason against the EVE playerbase and a total outrage.
It's "treason against the EVE playerbase"? Somehow, I doubt that.
Guess what nubby, ONLY CCP can decide what is or isnt an exploit.
Feel free to read the EULA.
If you're talking to me, I would suggest that your reading comprehension leaves something to be desired. Drilla feels that he is the one who should decide, and that the GM, as an agent of CCP, is wrong.

I agree with you. When M.Corp took out 2 POS in GW that had become detached from their respective moons following the Cold War patch, that incident should have been taken care of in a similar fashion by the GM's/CCP as well. CCP, in my opinion, does need to fix game mechanics in regard to POS operation and defense, and to treat everyone fairly and consistently.

I think anouther part of this whole ordeal, is that the POS in question had a significant role in the sovernty of the system.
It wasn't your normal POS, as this one would have turned sovernty over to us (if the system worked correctly) thus influcancing the entire region. And more or less shutting down xetic, as thier only defence in the last 4 or five mounth has been a logistics one. Meaning they can set up and fuel POS's, which in turn gives them the hope that they may one day take the station.
Though this has been ruined, as the work we put into securing the region, has been reversed. And its always nice to see the little xetic resistance squashed in a matter of a few hours.

Drilla's points are valid enough tbh, regardless of how you interpret the semantics of his post. I've been hearing a lot of people say that the GMs are not allowed to determine what is or is not an exploit.

See, that's just jacked. I don't see why so many ppl are flaming each other over this when the more likely culprit is the one you fund with your monthly fee.

Wow, this is total BS. I guess a lot of NPCers need to be banned for using drones as exploits too.
Moros for the ban!
