We've been running almost nonstop fleets for the last week killing sov structures in the east. The remark was in reference to the small guy and the "thousand little pricks". You have a 37000 man alliance. 37 thousand pricks is a completely different story. The first goon corp in Eve had something like 15 people in it. Stop trying to play Eve like a single player game and make some friends.

So far every entity that has tried to form a coalition to kill the CFC ends up being a toxic environment that drives line members from the game.

Actually that's a horrible idea. Marlona is just mad that they lost the war.

The current status quo of defending and attacking anything from anywhere benefits them far too much for them to ever want that changed. You're talking about a coalition that is willing to grind sov in entire regions using stealth bombers. What makes you think we wouldn't be willing to take a few gates to get a fight?

The current status quo of defending and attacking anything from anywhere benefits them far too much for them to ever want that changed. You mean like Goons were so opposed to tech being fixed? Oh, wait, they were the loudest proponents of fixing it. A change like this would make the tech nerf look like childs play. Also, the tech nerf didn't threaten their entire infrastructure. It only threatened some income. You have no idea just how much our tech empire was worth (it was a staggering amount of isk). If you don't know what you are talking about you should probably just stop.

This can be seen by noticing that I'm not the one polluting the thread with pointless personal attacks instead of actual rebuttals. I guess you missed all the rebuttals to your points.

This would just encourage even bigger coalitions.

The same thing that allowed them to take the systems to begin with. I can't be the only one that sees the humor of a member of NC.....of ALL alliances.....calling to nerf jump drives. Not like that is your schtick or anything. Surely NCDot could fall back on their proven record of subcap supremecy.

This would just encourage even bigger coalitions. Would it? Coalitions mean you have to travel farther to get a fight. When jump logistics (bridging) is limited, so you must fly in space, that 50 systems to find an opponent matters much more than flying 30 systems. And if most of the coalition is fighting in the south, they won't have the ability to quickly move back and forth to curb-stomp a new threat. With strict limits on teleportation, where troops are in the universe matters, fronts matter, etc... It is more likely coalitions will collapse under their own weight, especially if they are fragmented across too many zones and members feel left out or unsupported. Why would we bother moving back and forth if we could just plant enough people at each front?

Have you looked at how the CFC has waged the last few wars? We are already doing this because we haven't (until now) been able to rely on a supercap advantage.
