Originally by: pershphanie
no. we asked BA not to engage MC. MC are our problem. BA are there to put all the jokers who like to jump in/out from p3 to obe back in their cages
The client has said don't shoot MC, so BA won't shoot MC. Mercs follow their client's instructions. Whether anybody else believes this makes no sense is irrelevant. BA are professional and will do what they are paid to do, end of story.
Have fun guys. :) ______________

Originally by: dalman
You see BAs ability to negotiate a No Fire Policy with MC as a negative, Persh and any potential employer sees it as a positive.
Ok, look here: FE hires BA to deal with Obe gate. BA goes camp that gate with 10 ships. In jumps 3 MC ships on their way up to go kill FE. I think BA killing them would help their client.
Actually it doesnt. If BA diverts their resources to fighting MC than the original problem (the reason we hired them) does not get solved. BA has a clear objective. We think that them worring about MC distracts them from accomplishing that.

Actually tzu and tsu are two entirly different characters. One looks like a backwards 7 and the other is a backwords 7 with a small circle in the upper righthand corner. Woohoo! Those hirigana/katakana classes finally paid off!

Originally by: Seleene Dalman, here - try the new M.C. Ham, Pepperoni, and Cheese Sandwich. It will take your mind off of all this nonsense. Move along... nothing to see here.

At the end of the day, if BA are given a list of targets which doesn't include MC, why should they engage MC? It doesn't make sense. So stfu and stop telling people who they should and shouldn't shoot. I haven't got a new sig yet :)

Originally by: Zzazzt Question to Dalman..
Why the hell do you care anyway?

I thought this topic was a release to the public, as it's posted on the public forums. Me = public in this case. You = not public in this case as you're the client. So, this thread is for me but not for you. Get it?
So, then the public release states "We shall be operating under a NBSI policy and making use of the current F-E/KAOS/5-friendly list". And this turned out to be incorrect.
Hence it's very natural that I comment/ask questions on that and that BA responds to that, as the sole purpose of making this thread in the first place is BA's relations to me (= public).
If you don't get that, then there wouldn't have been any point in making this thread at all, k?
Originally by: Recluse XXX And Dalman, why dont you go and shoot BOB instead of telling everyone else in Eve who they should shoot or not shoot..?
Read above. The thread is about BA, not about me, nor BoB. K? (And for the record it was downtime and before DT I tried, but they all docked/logged as soon as I entered local so it wasn't very easy) Am I forced to have any regret? I've become the lie, beautiful and free In my righteous own mind I adore and preach the insanity you gave to me |

Hey, that picture is manipulated!  It used to contain Dash standing beside Hugh. They both stick to the same story though; Hugh just wanted to give poor Dash a ride. Home.

You smell like a mix of rotten pineapple, dead kittens, and naphtalia's socks. no one wants to be in the same system as that smell. We had to contract out for that.

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?

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
