the point of locking down a system for pos shooting is exactly to prevent any opposition
Preventing it by creating an excessive amount of lag is an okay strategy ? I DO agree that it would be ok if there was no lag involved. I would LOVE to take part in a 1000 people battle. But my view on the current warfare system is that if you bring more than 200 people camping a gate you CANNOT expect enemy to try to break in regardless of the size of their fleet.
Exactly.. they don't play EVE to fight, but to win - whatever winning may be.

There are some hostiles in the system too, and those dudes get respect, for they actually try to fight, unlike those fleets that from time to time seem to try to grow a pair and slowly crawl up to a gate leading to EC-P before they get too scared and run away...
Like you guys would jump into a fight where you knew you would lose 30-50% of your fleet before they even load their screen and be outnumbered like 5:1 for the rest.

weve done that alot of times,
im sure G/iron can verify this.
Keep patting yourself on you back. 
Yes you may have jumped in on slightly larger forces of disorganised alliances without decent leadership occasionally (read: NSA, FA, ...).. But that is a lot different than jumping into a complete suicide.

Its too bad for GIRON that they didnt really help PA/NBSI/FE when the 5 invaded, or maybe they would still be alive and/or allied with the rest of the north. But I guess politics aren't your strong point.
Did it ever occur to you that G/IRON have consciously chosen not to ally with PA/NBSI/FE... Uber-blobby alliance politics lead to insanely boring game-play.

Right, so then why are they complaining when their enemys have more numbers? They COULD have had tons of numbers themselves, but, as you claim, they chose not to. So why are they blaming BoB/ASCN?
Because the game-play would be just as boring and pointless if G/IRON had the same number of people - game mechanics do not support it.

As boring and pointless as not being able to do anything and instead crying on the forums?
The fact that ASCN/BoB are camping 1 system on the map, which I haven't visited for months before they came, doesn't impair my ability to play the game at all, thank you very much for asking.

Cause we don't care about lame ass alts, or any other single person in EVE. We have defined targets and goals, which we are accomplishing. If this doesn't affect you as you say, why do you care?
It does affect me insofar as this moves the game yet again further towards the ultimately boring uber blob-wars that don't come with any actual combat. Be happy about causing a few billion of damage to one of the richest neutral entities in EVE, I'm sure their wallet won't be all that hurt in the longer term.
