Ok, let me educate you a little.

fight:
1. take part in a violent struggle involving the exchange of physical blows or the use of weapons.
2. a violent confrontation or struggle.

Have you ever seen BoB struggle? Perhaps you're familiar with Old School Soviet Doctrine?

They were given an unfair advantage early on and they have never had to suffer or pay the consequences for it.

RvB will see soon enough how foolish it is to try to eat at their table.

You will never be their equals and will feed only on the scraps that they throw down to you.

really? its not Dinsdale? learn something new daily.

I am not a frequenter of the cesspool that is the EVE-O forums. However, this is amusing. Does that make me a bad person?

For people who can actually be rational about such things, this shouldn't be considered an alliance so much as a neutrality agreement. Both sides have come to the conclusion that's there's no reasonable way to prevent the other from destroying their stuff if they really want to, and that such an attempt would cost both sides tons of isk. Instead, by supporting each other's POCO attempts, we can both make isk, and **** off everyone else at the same time - two things both Goons and RvB really, really like.

13 pages of whaling, crying and grrr goons? And you wonder why they chose to do it?

Just gives you a somewhat higher rating on the bitterness scale.

EVIL GOONS only charging a 5% tax rate along with EVIL RVB how /dare/ they

Everyone knows your little stake in all this, don't pretend to be impartial.

Must be nice to have devs on speed-dial...

Oh yeah, you're so witty

one of these days hisec will finally have had enough and rebel agahahahahahaha

I would normally add something witty and original at this point like post with your main... but i have the dreadful feeling that this might actually be your main... in which case i feel so terribly sorry for you.

Never underestimate the power of stupidity!

Those people obviously do not understand economics. Or are doing it for fun.

If you want reasonable tax rates, come up to The Forge and look for an RvB-R or an RvB-B owned POCO, we have good rates for neutrals - 5% from us, and a recommendation to train Customs Code Expertise to V to knock the NPC tax down to 5% also, giving you a very favourable 10%

(When compared to the Interbus basic rate on the remaining Interbus Offices).

Why does this **** thread gets 13 pages?

Err... I'm seeing a base rate of 15% on RVB-R customs offices. If it was 5%, that would definitely be a level most wouldn't care about, and RVB-R could just sit back and collect the 5% for future FFA events. It isn't practical to wardec RVB-R either.

RvB-R and RvB-B are probably the two alliances people won't mind paying to, compared to the alternatives.

Eugenics was never proven to be unsuccessful or unethical.

The analytic and the systemic approaches are more complementary than opposed, yet neither one is reducible to the other.
