the gal/cal warzone is broken
gallente are way better and everyone knows it
almost everyone with a brain joins gallente because they dont want to get steamrolled in a computer game in their free time
there are only a few kinds of people who join caldari 1. idiots 2. farmers (russians/ukrainians doing rmt) 3. corps/alliances who think that "getting pounded = content creation for our members" (test/borg) (see #1) 4. roleplayers (diana kim & ibanez) 5. people who join accidentally, realize it's not fun, and then defect later (baron soontirfail)
sure there is the occasional case of a decent group joining caldari (b2k). but then the gallente cowards start batphoning every single fight
now the forum is like this
gallente forum posters: omg theres nobody for me to gangbang with my huge gallente blob, this is not fun. i try to gangbang the farmers but they just run away or fit warp core stabs wtffffff
caldari forum posters: omg all my buddies were sick of getting gangbanged so they quit FW and now I cant even undock cuz it'll be such a savage gangbang that it makes me depressed even thinking about it wtffffff
TLDR: the only way to fix the warzone is for half of the gallente poofsters to defect and fight against their former allies |

There are certain advantages to being the underdog. It is very easy to find fights. Go to system X. Open a plex and wait. Someone will find you. Because it is so easy to get fights you can also demand your own terms. Got 4 guys an they show up with 20? Blueball. They won't leave their home system? Blueball. They cart links around with them when they roam? You got it- blueball.

In all seriousnessGǪ.
There is nothing wrong with the warzone. The problem is that eve players are just like football enthusiasts. When the team WINS = Great team When the team loses = **** management/coach.
The problem with Caldari is that many people (especially EU players) are less active atm. This can be for a number of reasons such as GÇô better weather = people leave the little square screen and go outside. Students are on holiday and are away from home and are not playing eve. And of course my personal pet peeve - people who canGÇÖt handle losing. They will leave their faction to join the winning faction to feel a sense of self achievement for being on the GÇÿwining sideGÇÖ.
The Gallente did a great job of taking Innia, nobody can deny that. No excuses can be made.
All I can say is The Only Thing That Is Constant Is Change.
So maybe not todayGǪ maybe not tomorrowGǪ. Hell, maybe not even this monthGǪ BUT SOON, things will change and The Gallente will have to defend a system themselves. Prolly not InniaGǪ cause I mean, we didn't want that ANYWAY 
Again GÇô good fights guys and props on all the hard work. Friendship is like peeing on yourself: everyone can see it, but only you get the warm feeling that it brings. |

Pfft, whatever. Most of those are duplicates between your two corps, and anyways 90% of your kills are you guys joining JUSTK fleets so you don't fall too far behind  |

The problem with caldari is noobs seem to love to join them. For some reason Caldari is the most popular, yet the worst. Look at the top alliances/corps for gallente vs caldari and it is no comparison.
In my experience, there are only a select few in Caldari that are any good. When they try to organize/teach other players, the Wonderful Caldari players don't listen or don't care. They continue to fail and then leave. The good pilots leave out of frustration.
Been this way for the 3 years I've been in FW. Its only gotten worse since the FW update.
Gallente on the other hand seem to collect all the vets. Noobs don't fail as much and actually listen.
OP is obviously a troll alt, but there are some merit points. Currently Caldari will never win unless they blob. Simply because of skill level.
Simple, the end of the story. Caldari will never be as good because of the noob ***** that farm/stay in high/don't want to learn.
TLDR; screw noobs in Caldari

Look, here's the issue;
Gallente: Lots of chiefs. Not enough Indians. Caldari: Lots of Indians. Not enough chiefs.
Solution?
We send some of our chiefs over to you to balance the situation. As a gesture of goodwill, we will send our top two chiefs; Guiynan and Perunga. Free of charge!
So between those two and Mira, you will have very memorable fleet experiences every single day and they will be the anchor of Caldari power for years to come.
Problem solved. You're all welcome. High Five. Yeah! C'est La Eve . |

Awww... I got called out.
The main and defining difference between the two militias is not how experienced they are, it's the attitude of the players.
The attitude of Gal Mil is, "Who cares about killboard stats, I want fights"
The attitude of Cal Mil, "Who cares about fights, I want a good killboard."
As someone who spent about the same time in both militias, this is basically what it boils down to. There's a 4v5 frigate fight about to happen? Galmil will take the fight all the time. Calmil will run from it. CalMil is too worried about dying to take fights, and then when you actually get into a fight, they wonder why GalMil pilots have so much more experience. In CalMil when we would lose a plex fight, people would dock up and log instead of trying to re-ship and trying to fight again. Can you imagine what would have happened to the warzone if we did that during the Test assault of Eha?
TL;DR CalMil needs to start taking all the fights it can get, even if warping into a larger force. (Also, calmil drama is incredibly stupid and dumb) |

Blah blah blah culture wars, blah blah blah.
It's much more clear cut down our way. I get drunk, we kill amarrs, I post otters in local. Amarrs are basically all autistic and generally rubbish.
The warzone turns like the seasons, I drink more beer and find ever cuter mustelid macros while the amarrs flail aspergically into increasing irrelevance.
My little corner of space is largely unaffected by the ones who are meant to be the enemy (#BurnHuola), we get more involved fights out of the local piratey types than the enemy. The warzone is more target rich than it's ever been but the amarr are not an organised part of that environment.
Oh they can beat their chest about their PvP ability, while farming for all they're worth (then get shown up again once the farmer horde switches sides to get more offensive plex action) but in truth we just farm them for cheap kills until one of the more grownup adversaries in the local area puts together a proper fleet then we go and respond to that instead.

The gallente generally have a high skill base (player not SP) than the caldari.
The gallente are more of like a few good corps that generally do their own thing but help one another out when the time is need. i.e. to push/defend a home system etc. The Caldari seem to get these power hungry dictators that want to control the ENTIRE militia.
And why would I join Galmil and fight a militia that is fragmented and of low skill when I can join Calmil and get good fights with the Gallente?
Unfortunately all long as calmil keeps getting these power hungry dictators it wlll never really amount to much. It needs a few good corps to go out and do their own thing and capture their own systems. The militia never functions as a whole unit, it just doesn't work, but a few good units working together for pushes/defense will be more effective and will give the noobs a proper guiding group to look up to/listen too. I would have a go but being in the AU TZ is very difficult to 'manage' a developing corp and lets face it when Laney rejoins would just show me up anyways  That is the Way, the Tao.

1. not complaining. simply telling you plebs what's wrong with the warzone AND how to fix it 2. u act like i cant rejoin gal mil whenever i feel like it (i have several times and it's so boring i cant stay for more than a few days)
but really why focus on me??
let's focus on the real issues here:
the warzone is boring as hell
most gallente are cowards who only want risk averse pvp against mongoloids and farmers
the solution: gallente people need to defect |

Ask any caldari FC what the biggest gripe is and it might be something along the line of "grumble grumble doctrine ships grumble grumble"
We have/had a guy named Cyrus Mierre (probably didn't spell that right) who is basically an EFT genius mixed with a zen bhudda. I envy his patience...most of us veterans can't stand the mainstream caldari attitude of "Well if he ain't bringing it, neither am I" therefore nobody brings what's needed. Of course I'm exaggerating.
I love calmil 'cause I started there, but there's a reason I've left so many times...most FC's simply do not have the patience for calmil line members to do what's needed to win fights. The cycle repeats before anything solid can be established for more than...maybe two weeks tops. Haaaaaalp my head's on fire |

LOL @ Wilgotna's post. I almost spat soda across the computer screen. Wil may be trolling but he makes solid points. If he was some scrub pilot who soley brought attrition fits, I'd troll him back. But when he was in FW, he had no problem bringing out his shineys when he flew with me or others.

Yeah, but let's be honest. Maintaining a decent KB efficiency when you are killing pilots who are new and don't know how to fit their ships next door to us isn't that hard. This is the equivalent of SNUFF curbstomping Galmil fleets every other weekend and assuming that it's a special accomplishment. It's not.
How any of us are still getting a kick from killing the umpteenth Templis noob who can't fit a merlin properly is beyond me. They literally bring 5 ppl to blob Yuri all the time inside a plex. What does that tell you about the competition?
It's true though. Most of us don't want a real challenge. Because if we did, some of us would FC more. Or fight stiffer competition like various neutral or pirate gangs. Or move to a different area to find new competition. Or stop bringing derp fits. Or bring better comps. Etc.... There are many ways to challenge yourself in FW without having to fight the same people. Not sure why Vesk keeps harping on about the KB metrics. Put corps like Qcats or Blfox in the same pipe that JUSTK lives in, and they'd have similar kill metrics. Kills mean nothing unless you aspire to be better.
Respect to guys like Gavin, Vick, Mira or whomever over there that has the patience to herd cats on a consistent basis. God knows without you guys, there wouldn't be any content.

Yeah let's give respect where it's due. Gavin - gone. Vyck - gone. Mira - not around very long. Maybe (s)he'll stick. Maybe (s)he won't.
Anyways, wilgotna's a nice guy and all that. However, if I was interested in "Fair Fight Club" I'd go join RvB.
And if we weren't interested in challenging ourselves we would have disengaged from defending Eha for 6 months against ridiculous numbers and "found something more interesting to do." We would have given up on trying to integrate "common militia rabble" into our fleets. Whatever.

Pretty much...
Making plexing the no-risk LP farm it is and having it control sov which in turn controls station access was the most backasswards thing ever done to FW, imho.
Five years I've been in FW...and this is where we are at? Sorry, but bitter vet is bitter and my 'FW love' has run out...
PS - It doesn't help that the squids are the main 'farming' faction so their numbers/ambition/persistence/willingness (as a militia as a 'whole' - some individual corps are exceptions) to fight is as fleeting as farts in the wind... |

The majority of people on both sides of the warzone are happy with FW. Apart from the extent of farming. Having a gallente PVP corp change sides isnt exactly realistic since there are few established corps as described that either desire to throw away the foundations they have built or have the standings to make the move.
Therefore, you complaints are not common to the people who are actually in FW and you solution is practically impossible.
Thats why your post lacks any content.
On top of that, i personally like the farming pendulum. It ensures action is focused on each others home systems from time to time. |

Don't worry Wil, there is bound to be some failure at blue donut nullsec diplomacy blob alliance that will breath new (same old) life into Calmil. The lack of imagination in such groups is telling.
Easy access to Jita, check. The bottomless carebear Navy Raven market, check. The fact that most the members probably already have high Caldari standings from mission running days in some overstocked caldari navy mission hub of yore, check. Level 4 Calmil FW missions a breeze compared to Galmil missions against endless range and jamming rats, check
The cycle will repeat.

it certainly doesn't help when the only lp store stuff you want from caldari are cnr, hookbill and faction ammo. On account of just about everything else being better from other lp stores or costing a gorillion tags which as has been noted elsewhere are practically impossible to attain.

Latest iteration of Caldari wasn't too bad. For a good 6 months, they had decent FCs, ran weekly fleets of all sizes (I saw 30 man drake fleet and 40 man AHAC fleet once) and alliances were working together.
But someone on their side decided it was a great idea to split forces and move into Oicx and the resulting loss of that system created a domino effect which eventually resulted in them losing Fortress Innia. One bad strategic move costed them the foundation they had built for 6 months.
If you don't want this to happen again, tell your leaders don't try to grind sov against the Gallente, who are far more organized. Though, as I speak, I'm sure some genius over there is scheming a way to reclaim Innia again.... High Five. Yeah! C'est La Eve . |

Agree with most of what you say and Oicx was certainly significant but it was just one factor in the chain of events that led to the loss of Innia. Two bigger contributing factors were a) losing a large number of our FCs to real life in a very short period of time (Cyrus, Mnemic and a number of others) as well as losing Vicktor Hark to other areas of the game, and b) the opposition shifting up a gear. A sudden gutting of the militia's regularly scheduled fleets obviously had a big impact on activity and we can't overlook the fact that the Gallente brought a new degree of concentration of forces to the table at exactly the same time. Oicx had an effect but I don't think it was the main cause.
Quote: @ Gavin- I think some of your FCs are too ambitious with constantly trying to do these big 30-40 man gangs all the time. It simply doesn't scale at that level. Shrink your ambitions down to 10-20 and you'll have more fun and get better uniformity.
This was Vick's biggest problem - he wanted to lead fleets composed of players who didn't exist rather than aiming to get the best out of those who did exist.

Solution?
We send some of our chiefs over to you to balance the situation. As a gesture of goodwill, we will send our top two chiefs; Guiynan and Perunga. Free of charge!
So between those two and Mira, you will have very memorable fleet experiences every single day and they will be the anchor of Caldari power for years to come.
Problem solved. You're all welcome.
Yes once they finally have some new/more/replacement FCs they can join a giant fleet every day and roam around baiting and ganking individual plexers with their mighty blob.
Afterall, why have a diffuse group of players on comms running multiple plexes when you can have a fleet of 20 dudes with an FC and blob the **** out of one plex.
Pretty soon you'll have enough pilots that are good enough to know they shouldn't undock unless *that* FC is on. I mean, who cares if the system hovers around 40%, its not like anyone loses their homes due to sudden offensives.

Is it really that bad out there? I see Caldari Militia in Badgers all the time leaving Jita. Almost shot one until I realized I am not in the Militia! Actually more importantly they didn't have anything worth ganking or I would have anyway.
The stats do look kinda ugly against Caldari and Amarr. I am guessing that Caldari Militia have more alts and low SP characters and therefore are more likely to farm and avoid combat.
Not sure what CCP can do other than limit the # per side enrolled in Militia.

I think people seem to miss the whole FW idea sometimes.
I joined as I got tired of sov warfare, and also didn't particularly enjoy the fact that I was forced to log on to do a CTA. FW is great for logging on GÇô getting some fights GÇô logging off GÇô rinse GÇô repeat.
Unfortunately FW has become a place that people see as an area to grind isk by means of LP farming. Now IGÇÖm not even going to go into the whole GÇ£Farmers ruin the game for all of usGÇ¥ saga. All I want to say is that we need to remember that the Militia is not an Alliance. Most of the time they are an alt of a HS mission runner or miner who would like to try out PVP. These guys can barely fly a proper stabbed rookie shipGǪ let alone a fleet doctrine that was made by someone who belongs to an alliance where they actually use doctrines.
Doctrines are great for people who can fly them, and when the whole fleet flies them. Otherwise you have a few people in doctrine cruisers/dessies/afGÇÖs who are supported by the kitchen sink who are just there to see what itGÇÖs like to fly in a fleet.
We can debate who **** is and who is not, but the fact of the matter is: - The side with the best organisation wins - The side that wins will get more people who want to fly with them or grind LP on that side as that means the tier side will be higher meaning better lp/isk.
Its simple logic GÇô the kid with the nicest toys will have the most friends. OR The guy with the hot wife who hates underwear will have more friends over at his house.
But like I mentioned beforeGǪ it will change. As soon as the Gallente LP becomes useless due to market flooding the farmers will change sides and put more systems into vulnerability which in turn will be flipped.
Or based on the example:
The kid with the cool toys.. as soon as the toys break the friends will find the new guy with the best toys. OR As soon as the hot wife mysteriously falls pregnant GÇô the friends who use to come over will find a new place to hang out.
Right now Calmil is bleeding members. As said before it can be attributed to a number of reasons. Regardless of the reasons GÇô Galmil has the strength in numbers and therefor will have the upper hand in the warzone.
SimplesGǪ Friendship is like peeing on yourself: everyone can see it, but only you get the warm feeling that it brings. |
