WTF? When did this slaughter happen? Are you crazy or just stupid?
IMHO every Eve player who appreciates freedom should stand together and declare war on all Russian corps and alliances. N3, Goons, Provibloc, -A-... Ok maybe not -A- since they are losing everything they have to HERO by the second. |

Interesting development. All systems dropped simultaneously and alliance disbanded. Can't see where the corps have gone yet but I wonder if someone high up got uber isk to do it.
Or have they decided to merge with -A- ? I don't see them supporting A then abruptly disbanding. So either a merger or a mittani style espionage ?
Awaiting news on this. |

Did you even read what I replied to?
No, we shouldn't ignore their disbanding. But at least wait until an announcement comes out (from something more reliable than Reddit, as has been mentioned) before we start up with the "Grr, Russians video game players that somehow have anything to do with the events in real life!".
It happened like, an hour ago, dude. Settle down.

You shithead, do you really think the leaders of EVE corps make real life military decisions?

As unsettling as current events are in the Crimea, yes... LEAVE IT OUT of the game.
Alliances come and go all the time, but the game goes on.

Reminds me of Fletch Lives (1989) in Thibodaux, Louisiana:
Fletch (Chevy Chase): You ever heard of the Emancipation Proclamation?
Calculus Entropy (Cleavon Little): Well I heard something about it, but I don't recall exactly. It didn't get too much publicity around these here parts. |

Hmm, I probably shouldn't be joking about this, but I was expecting this thread to get a lock. As long as the crisis in Crimea is actually having an effect on EVE politics, the line gets a little fuzzy then about what is and isn't related to EVE, and what is and isn't real political drama. I will point out, though, that this discussion is not likely to end well, and it will probably still get a lock.

I don't understand you people who say leave RL out of eve. When eve is featured in RL everyone is quick to throw dollar amounts around on how much damage was inflicted, then why shouldn't real life also affect in game events?
It's an international game, one cluster, it should be affected by politics and real life events. Personally I tried before to pit the Ukrainians against the Russians because it would have benefited me in game. All is fare in love and war, right? |

This game is about the most political game in existance. I'm not sure it's even possible to keep it out of the game. The truth is real life and real life politics effect in game play.

Because that "dollar damage inflicted" making it to RL newsletters fad is cr*p aswell and shouldn't really be a thing.
I would also add that EVE getting publicity for a feature that doesn't really work properly isn't something to write home about either, but that's another talk for another time.
Edit: And honestly, it doesn't matter if in-game event happens because of RL influences or not. It happened, now go figure out what you can do with this and fast, before others outdo you. |

Quit calling for censorship. If CCP wants to censor us, that's their call, but if you're afraid of the topic, just get out of the thread. It's your right to cower in fear from words and ideas, but stop trying to force that choice on the rest of us.
If you think people talking about scary things is frightening, you should see what happens when they stop talking.

I'm very glad that it turned out that the disbanding had nothing to do with what the OP claimed (read the articles on TMC and/or evenews24). Otherwise it would have been very sad.
That said I still feel pity for the line members who have to evac their stuff and risk getting blopped or else get it locked in stations soon belonging to non blue entities. (Maybe it's time for the diplos to start talking - this might be a great opportunity for both sides to come to terms.  )

EVE is Real
Slaughter by the millions? Tince the intervention the death count is zero. During hwole revolution is like 80.
Sensacionalistic fake news of real world subjects should not be in these forums. Woudl create unecessary tension.
