When you have a 'diplomatic situation' sometimes a 3rd party is needed as mediation. -- We are recruiting

And sometimes the 3rd party has an alterior motive and dies...
Motive? Yes. Ulterior one? No.
I'm interested in stability and development in 0.0. (After all, I'm not a big fan of making round trips to empire for more ships) I think the ISS stands for that, and even with this move, still does.
BoB are still shooting ISS as far as I'm aware, this strikes me as something that _could_ be acceptable to everyone concerned. ISS is not a military power, and therefore no 'threat' to the area. The best defense is to be something where attacking is less of a benefit than not doing so.
I'm pretty sure that having some of the current military forces in the area occupying it would prove enough of a threat to warrant further fighting. -- We are recruiting

Originally by: Astarte Nosferatu Edited by: Astarte Nosferatu on 07/04/2006 12:16:54 It's a shame such a good alliance has to die like this. I'll be more then happy to loot your T2 BPO's though .
Oh, I'm glad I sold all my ISS shares aswell, I can only see them go downhill from now on.
I ain't got no T2 BPOs. Tell you what, lend me one, and I'll let you loot it. Cap Recharger II or Rook would do nicely, thanks. -- We are recruiting

Conveniently ignoring the fact that you're also major shareholders?
The vast majority of shares are outside the ISS. We're too poor to buy them ourselves 
Oy, shouldn't you be mining Veld? Count's in need of a couple more carriers :) -- We are recruiting

Originally by: Skank Is ISS an alt alliance of Bob ?
(just joking but this thread just reminds me something ... )
Sometimes I wish that were the case. The number of ships I've lost to various members of BoB is starting to get depressing. -- We are recruiting

Originally by: djNME I do think it was bold move for a nuetral alliance.Only because of the events that unfolded there.Well not only that but, if I was trust I would be hiring every merc corp in game... but I would of also did that the day it happened to camp off torrinos etc.
Personaly I think people are just happy to shoot at ISS due to the thoughts of tech II drops.Another twist in the plot and more things to go pop.
enjoy to all parties
djNME
Tech 2 drops? I'm still impressed that people think we're doing well. We're constantly fighting in frigates and cruisers, and we've been getting public funding for our outpost construction.
We're not doing _too_ bad, but we're really not one of the rich alliances. -- We are recruiting

Originally by: Princess Alvilda Bob ascn/axe .5. etc cant dock at ISS in the north.
Why they give it to ISS?
Presumably because they can't blow it up, and they don't want to have to hold it. And maybe, they respect our position - we're trying to be the infrastructure that allows 'proper' economies in 0.0. Personally, I think that's only to the benefit of EVE. And maybe BoB et. al do to. After all, at a worst case it's more targets and better battles. -- We are recruiting

Originally by: prsr So as a prospective investor, uhm, how is ISS going to protect this station from takeover?
It seems a bit odd that ISS expects people to buy shares in a second hand outpost that is quite likely to be captured again soon.
There's a reason that announcement is delayed. If investment is to be opened, it's got to be done 'right' and at a guess that'd have to involve 'residents' of the area at a diplomatic level. -- We are recruiting
