The last great challenge was how to conduct combat as a coalition, but there is a lack of motivation to conquer others and non-pvp content continues to be stagnant in wspace. We've pretty much proven that once you're willing enough, you can break any wspace system in the game. The process is long and amazingly taxing on people; it really isn't fun. The fun came from trying something you weren't sure that was even possible. Well, it is possible, but it's so arduous that nobody wants to do it.
I do agree its painful and horrible to do but i don't agree that making it easier to evict people is the answer as it would just result in a lot less active systems if they have no protection at all.
I do love my old SSC/KILL blue donut though, keep blobbing them all.  |

Are the large entities who are still left dirty blobbers?
No some are just lazy and some are left with the fact that the doctrines they are stuck with due to having to match what the other side uses. CCP should really make that module to allow subcaps to have a much smaller mass to shake up doctrines.
Are we vile trolls who are going to failscade in a few months. (everyone already knows that kill will failscade over a bottle of jack sooner or later)
All alliances will have dramas at some point, it's inevitable. SSC's one corp alliance is the only way to go.
And for personal opinions about the major entiies and their practices. Do you think our "bring fights or get invaded" rule is BS or do you feel its fair.
In all honesty that is complete bullshit, i have seen over time some of the biggest names in WH space run away from fights then to sperge on the forums a week later about how bad carebears are when they POS up its such bullshit.
I do agree that if people use underhanded ****** tactics to screw other people over then it should incur the wrath of BOB, crap like not honoring their word in WH space is always seen and remembered by BOB.
Final question is in all honesty, when you roll into a major group that you arent blue to. And you have sufficient numbers on, what are your honest thoughts? Do you turn tail and run, do you hope that they didnt see you, or do you get scouts out there and start doing the numbers game trying to see if you can bring a fight?
I'm just a solo guy these days playing skill que online mostly but while in my days in SSC i don't recall a time we ever rolled away from a possible engagement, it was always balls in deep.
I do believe you had good reasons to hit R.E.P.O in the ass after them convoing for fights then rolling out, and the other crap but to use the reason that they warped in an unfair advantage of caps in their home WH after you went in balls deep is a pathetic one to choose to bring up IMO, you went in balls deep in their home and lost it's the way it goes. You should have sucked that loss up and moved on really. |

The reason for this is that earlier we engaged them on the wormhole, trapping their fleet in so they lost the ability to escalate endlessly (what you call blobbing). The fleets was rather evenly, we fielding some BS and a archon for logi and they having 3 guardians and a decent t3 fleet. Some kills were made but basicly either fleet coudlnt break the logi of the other. However. By accident, or by batphone, KILL joined in on the fight doubling the numbers already fielded by SSC. Ofc we lost the fight at this point. But when SSC then rolled into us again we denied them because suiciding is only fun to a certain point and we knew they would outnumber us rather than loose.
Big bad meanies they are... |

We took a small T3 fleet with a lone dread into Polarized.'s wormhole, not too long ago. RFed a tower, all while begging for a fight in local. Does that count?
Actually no it doesn't really, you can never get a fight with them unless they use an out of corp alt to get a gank on you and then they only ever run away and roll out the chain stopping a further engagement with them. They are well known for only ever engaging on terms and numbers that suit them, they are weak and have been so for some time now. |
