I tend to agree with Dalman on this, it is bogus that Merc corps arnt fighting each other. You get phrases like "if the price was right we would" and garbage like that. Come on? if BA charged 2 billion to fight MC is it worth it? Obviously not which is why the would ask for such money, specifically because they are not worth 2 billion to shoot MC.
The whole pricing system seems designed around their own friends list isntead of being based solely on the target in question. That it itself is contradictory to the idea of being a merc.
Ultimetly its their corp and their choice but the merc industry died when bandwaggon politics became the norm in eve.

Did you miss the part where Persh said FE didnt want BA to fight MC or are you just using this thread to discuss "merc philosophy" whatever that may be?
No i caught what she said. Doesnt change what i have written. Yes im using this thread to discuss merc philosophy as this is a thread about a merc conract with stipulations that they will not shoot another merc corp for reasons dash and eddyz highlighted. My comments are in response tho them not persh.

Well if you and dalman want to get together and hire some mercs to attack mc that'd be fine by me. I'd reccomend KIA, KOS, and ROA. However FE is paying BA for a service. That service has nothing to do with MC. I'm not sure what is so confusing about this.
Did you even read the part where I commented on the price of hiring merc vs merc? No where in my posts have i given an indication that i needed to hire mercs or someone needed to hire mercs against mercs. Im simply commenting on the current state of the profession and why contracts like this one are affected by it.

I think you are mistaken. This is a thread letting the public know what BA will be doing so people who don't want to be caught in the firing line, have enough time to get out and people who have to set standings, can do so. It is pretty obvious that the OP did not start this thread so random people from places nowhere near BA's area of operations, can make random comments about what a merc should or should not so.
This is the corp and alliance DISCUSSION forum. Maybe there should be a corp/alliance press release forum where discussion is not permited.
My comments are not random at all. I gave thought to the points i made and you seem to have either not read them or disregarded them without giving it some thought yourself.

I find it absolutly hilarious that Darken Two tells me that my comments are random and have no place in this thread, yet there are so many one liners in here that are in fact RANDOM comments. At least i have something to discuss and contribute to the subject, but still some people would rather flame others to attempt to discredit them.

Lol, good one.
What's there to discuss and contribute to ? This is an announcement, not oprah winfrey.
A thread consists of more than one post you know. This is a discussion forum and from the OP a discussion followed regardng mercs being hired by oposing factions yet not shooting each other. I responded to those comments. Unless you didn't read the whole thread, you already knew all that yet you still felt the need to flame away.

Please point out wher I flamed you? It seems to me that Curse Coalition, have recently started butting into threads that have nothing to do with them, spouting opinions that have no relevance to anything.
And trust me boyo if I was flaming you, you would feel the sting.
Purhapse "flame" was the wrong word to use regarding your comments in particular. Lets just say they were comments intended to discredit rather than address the topic I put forward in a constructive manner.
The CC hasnt been posting here, I have. My comments are relivent to the subject im replying too. I quote people so you know what specifically im responding to. I havnt quoted the OP so im obvioulsy not responding to that.

My comments were not meant to discredit you. All I said was that they were not relevant to the topic at hand.
Perhaps that was not your intention when you hit reply. However, saying I am a random person from a random place tends to indicate I have no place even commenting on this subject. Thus, any opinion I have should be disregarded on that basis.

Thus making your comment off topic. Stay on topic otherwise the thread will be locked. 
If thats how the forums really worked then it would be a boring place where no discussion took place. Everyone cant respond directly to the OP. Sometimes the OP is the subject itself and from that other topics relivent to the OP are brought up.
edit: the discussion we're having right now is in fact completely off topic. So lets just leave it at that please.

I stand by my statement. You, your corp and your alliance have nothing to do with BA current operation. Considering this thread was made to let everyone know what BA would be up to in FE controlled areas, your comments are indeed irrelvant to the thread. "Merc philosphy" is best left for another thread expressly started to discuss "merc philosophy".
I guess your definition of a thread and a discussion are different that my own. I hope in future you'll point out when other people are posting irrelevant or off topic comments (like the 20 or 30 other (by your definition) irrelevent comments in this thread).
Its easy to pick at comments that challenge something your involved in but much harder to pick at ones that are not. But hey, such is the culture of these forums.

alt scouting
Thats my lasting memory from our war with them.
I logged on in our home system to see more alts that CONIN corp members
Don't get me wrong, everyone uses scouts but you do overdo it more than a touch
QFT... This kind of alt use is why so many alliances have an NBSI policy. You dont know how many there are until your war deced and theres more alts than pvp pilots!!
