After fleeing from the north and covering the move with false propaganda and lies Jade herded her followers down to Curse where she posed to fight RA. Her real plan was to reforge her once famous corporation to be a PvP force to be reckoned with instead of the efficient guerilla warfare band they were.
Free will that makes the Jericho 'freecaptain' so unique and the ability to do what you want being eliminated in this process.
Also the very efficient punishment dealt by RA forces to Jericho caused not only the loss of many battleships but also several haulers of loot worth 200M Isk !
This partly due to the lazy handling of standings of JF leadership giving their members no chance to recognize an enemy in time.
Of course any responsibility issues have been already washed away by Jade and her henchmen telling the victim, a director of her own, that it was more or less his fault.
This and other reasons resulted in having several of her directors, mostly the ones organising PvP, leave the member base her plotting to change the face of the corporation she made and obviously is bent on breaking became more and more visible resulting in a general insurrection of JF members.
Currently this is being beaten down with the flood of words Jade is so well known for, assisted by her henchmen doing the side advertising of her ideas and feeding half-truths to herd them where she pleases.
This time doing it to her own corp members that are mostly oblivious of the fact that they are being manipulated to do things they do not want to do.
But not all members are accepting the brainwashing and signs are that despite a last attempt of getting her people together with propaganda, things have changed for Jericho forever already.
Some excerpts of Jades words of an internal post that has reached this reporter here:
***********
"Having been a pretty bad week for Jericho Fraction to start with, I've checked in today to see more departures and more bull**** criticism about "the directorate", poor leadership.
So. Lets have some plain speaking. If anything is wrong with this corporation over the last 3 months its YOUR ******* fault.
Everyone has the responsibility for things that haven't gone right and walking out the door with a huff and claiming that you were an undervalued uniquely vital sunflower pushed into the exit by a rubbishly innept self important directorate with its head up its ass is talking utter unmittigated venal bull**** and YOU can **** RIGHT OFF.
I get to hear everyone's problems and frustrations and disappointments and I am telling you now that the chief reason why decent people in positions of responsibility leave Jericho is that they are ****** off with ungrateful whinging backbiting from elements of the JF member base.
I've spent about 16 hours on ventrillo this week talking over this "crisis" with everyone concerned
If JF in two months time is just me, cosmo, marie, vesk, atan, jonny, some hardcore committed oldtimers and a bunch of new players enjoying thorax-warfare and learning their pvp spurs in the name of radical freespace ethics and the guerrilla warfare implicit then I'm very happy with that. If we drop from 90 members to 40 and we actually have some unity and agreement that that's where we want to be then excellent. It's the best result possible.
Maybe this is an end to the old Jericho Fraction democratic debating shop format of random direction and general fractious anarchy. Maybe it's the death of the "best corp chat in eve" and the beginning of something new JF as "merc cruisers 2" or something.
***********
Word on the street is that Jade already has successfully gotten rid of those who oppose her new course and cowed into submission whoever was left to oppose.
Together with her sidekick Cosmopolite they start a new area for the once so open Jericho Fraction.
