I checked the last map thread and noticed: "Omg, so many alliances I never ever heard of!"
In Example the Vox Imperium. Why are you, what do you do, what do you want and expecially where the hell do you come from?
And why is the smash alliance back? I though thy died long ago, and why are thy in Firmus Ixion space? Werent you somewhere around the south-east last time?
Who are [GHOST]? Your really a ghost! Never ever heard of you guys and I browse this forums on a daily base!
OSS is working together with TCC? Whats TCC? Some new drug?
Then we have an alliance called [UK] clamining assah? Whats special about assah? (except my stuff from 2003)
IAC? Claming the mining part of providence??
[ALE/ILN/PHA] ?! Interesting!
And I still dont know who Knights of the south are...
Come on guys, use this forum like intended and tell us whats happening. If I would want to read some kiddies alts I could also read some CS forums. This is for politics, let politics happen!

Well it seems everyone and their mom is creating alliance these days, i too stumble onto new ones quite often wondering where the hell they come from and why they actually exist.
Makes the map more colorfull though i guess.

I'm sure taking territory from the traitorous, enslaving, cowardly Ammatar is right up there with blowing up Amarrians. Plus it puts them in striking distance of CVA presumably.
Their most recent RP shows disgust for the Republic, so they are probably camping in the enemy's backyard to take the fight to the Amarrians and their lapdogs.
Erm ...  nice Amarrians ... please put those lasers away - kthx.

Maybe we need a sticky in this forum where each alliance gets a paragraph to describe itself and where it claims.

You aren't the only one to have this thought.
If someone can figure out a way to implement such a thread without constant flaming and off-topic posting, they should email it to us at the mod team. [email protected].
A thread that is already in use that I believe may be suitable, at least partially is linked here:
Linkage
Maybe the application can be easily modified to include the requested information maintained on an outside website. I suggest an evemail to Amataras about this.
There are several decent descriptions to be had on the E-O alliances page here:

Damn dude, did someone in FIX eat your firstborn or something?
Take it easy.
VOX and Smash are doing exactly what Sarmaul said they are, riding SA and HF's bandwagon. There's no need for the rolly eyes and the zingers.

Yeah, it's all good dude. Everyone wants a piece of the 0.0 pie and there's not enough of it to go around. Simple soldiers like us just shoot anything that isn't blue.

THe problem is that this forum has become an absolute joke to read, the amount of spammy off topic **** that gets posted day after day makes reading anything here feel like it is the chat area of the average counter strike game, case in point : 'MC - We make great sandwiches and kill people.'
It wouldnt come as a surprise to me if any of the smaller entities did make a post about what they were about, only to get flamed by alot of the older established/more powerful alliances here. The current trend is if you dont like the poster or topic to fill it up with as much meanlingless crap as possible.
Im surprised moderation isnt stricter tbh.

Its not fair to attack someone who's already been attacked by someone else, you have to wait for your turn.

Isnt just posting QFT a little hypocritical of the point you are trying to make? 
TBH, if you want hardcore (and boring imo) discussions in character, use the summit..
Anybody here is welcome to discuss their alliance, and there are no rules that say it must be 100% serious al the time. if a small alliance wants to declare their intent, they can: useless replies are dealt with accordingly. It just so happens that few people want to declare their intent nowadays; after all, staying below the radar is much safer than the other options..

Why should I bother making a post about this subject when Unleashed pretty much sums up my oppinion about it?
Hardcore discussions in character? What are you on about?
And finally; Yes I totally agree that people are free to post whatever they want to post, but same goes for people replying to these posts. And there's an increasing tendancy to just ridicule anyone not sharing the majority's oppinion, or just post rubbish in order to derail the thread...
And now I have no idea where I'm going with this. Totally lost the red line... 
Stay tuned for EDIT

The person you were agreeing with was whining about spam and off topic posts, when his own post was off topic and was followed by two quotes of QFT and no other discussion
See where I'm coming from?
Uhhh.. back to discussion:
IMO i think it's healthy for the game for there to be more small alliances out in 0.0, developing things. Eventually with constellation sov, I think that huge expanses of territory will be much less useful. Soon I think we will see more alliances with a neutral policy, developing the economy in 0.0 with the use of their outposts and gate defences to ekep it safe.
It's a great idea really

Yay I wasn't totally in the wrong by QFT'ing Unleashed...
In regards to smaller alliances popping up everywhere in 0.0 nowadays; it's greatly benificial to EVE and I hope people continue to inhabit 0.0 without taking BS from all the big boys.
In regards to actually being visible on the forums (and thereby the EVE-landscape as such), I do think it's hard to punch through, because there is a tendency (as previously mentioned) for some people from larger alliances to generally think less of smaller, unknown alliances and hence find it necessary to ridicule them.
This definitely doesn't make any other of the smaller alliances want to publicaly announce their intentions, which is sad as especially this forum-section could do with an injection of what it's supposed to be about; namely corp-discussion and politics instead of omgbobwtfbbq'edus/gmssuck/etcetcetc...
PS. Obviously it's not only forum-*****s from the larger alliances that derail threads.

You aren't the only one to have this thought.
If someone can figure out a way to implement such a thread without constant flaming and off-topic posting, they should email it to us at the mod team. [email protected].
Its a crazy idea but maybe you could specify what the thread is for in the title and opening lines, leave a couple of post lengths free for the index, then invite the executors of alliances to post a maximum one post description of themselves in the thread to be linked from the index. Then (and heres the clever bit) say that any post other than an official representative of a given alliance posting/editting/updating or adding new info for that alliance is offtopic and will be removed. Repetition of off topic posting will get removed AND a warning. Sure it'll take some knuckleheads a couple of warnings to get the idea but eventually you'll make a pavlovian style impact and bobs your mothers brother.
I'd suggest the format of the individual entries should be:
Full Name of Alliance
Alliance Ticker
Executor Name
Diplomatic Contacts
Geographical Data (Fixed Claim/Capital System/Roving)etc.
Approximate Size (Huge/Large/Medium/Small/tiny) 5000/2500/1000/250/100 (pilots)
ROE [NBSI/NRDS/Psychopathic/Mercenary/Pirate/Pacifist/Nationalist) etc.
Management Style (How the Organisation makes decisions)
Brief Description of Alliance Goal (intentions/aspirations/what its for)
Longer Description of the Alliance Background and flavour (250 words maybe)
Wider Political Affiliation (which big bad friends you have)
Invite Only (Yes/No)
Accepting Applications from Corps? (Yes/No)
At War 0.0 (Yes/No)
At War (Concord sponsored) (Yes/No)
Roleplay Friendly? (Yes/No)
Closing Statement (maybe a rousing motto?)
For Example:
Name: Raiders of the Lost Arkanor
Ticker: ROLA
Executor: Indianna Johannson
Diplomats: Christian Peterson, Tiger Lilly, Mongo Jerry
Geography: Roving, chasing the Arkanor, wherever Indy hangs his hat
Size: Small (but perfectly formed)
ROE: NRDS
Management: Adrenaline-fueled meritocracy
Goal: To seek out and ninja mine reserves of Arkanor from under the noses of sitting territorial alliances. And to do so in sexy ships employing an archetypal
1930's style of old earth "smack talk" when threatened.
Description: ROLA is a deep space mining corporation with a nose for trouble and an attitude of profound disrespect for established territorial claims. We go wherever the lost Ark can be found and will meet any opposition with a unique blend of derring-do and wise-c-racks to disarm even the most jaded of gate-camping alliance thugs. Combat experience is useful but the ability to tell jokes in local while camped in stations is essential.
Political Affiliations: ROLA has no formal political friendships with any 0.0 entity but is very fond of Miners with Attitude and the ISS.
Invite Only: No
Accepting Applications: Yes
At War 0.0: Not formally but everyone shoots us!
At War (Concord sponsored): No
Roleplay Friendly? Yes
Closing Statement "The Amarrian Holy writings speak of the Ark leveling mountains and laying waste in entire regions. An Army that carries the Ark before it... is invincible."
***
There you go. All thats needed is for the forum mods for this section to put the template in a stickied thread along with the rules for submission and it'd grow and be a useful resource for the community. Maintaining the index would be slightly onerous task I guess but I'm sure some enterprising player would volunteer. Hell I might even offer to do it myself if you give me a sticky
All the best.

Parm is correct. The smaller alliances don't post here because they don't want the attention. They don't need "Bloated off Crokite Alliance B" that is bored to come after them, or derail their plans, etc.
Best for smaller Alliances to fly under the radar.
I will have to agree with the OP, this forum has gotten a wee bit boring here lately. I to like to read up on juicy politics during the day, but all I see are "OMG Another Bloated off Crokite Alliance B" Thread...etc.

Too much attention can be a bad thing.
For the smaller alliances making a big noise on the forums is like waving a red flag at a bull.
Keeping their head down on the forums is just another way of avoiding unwanted attention and getting on with battling their current enemies rather than encouraging waves of new ones...

and ALE/ILN/PHA well curse is always fun to be in.
ILN = Italians, who split from Shinra. Started as a small corp in curse, but got a lot of new members, still friends of Shinra/LV and the anti-red faction in the south east.
PHA = Ex-Force Of Evil. After FoE disbanded, they settled in Curse. FOE were friends of Five. So PHA settled in the part of Curse were most ex-5 friends lived for some time or still live.
ALE ? Sorry, no idea at the moment.

Becuase (for some silly reason) you can't get soveriegnty of a system (and the benefits that come with it) without being an alliance chances are some alliances will be formed specfically to get these. They may not have a politcal or territorial agenda beyong getting access to some "alliance only" benfits.

Couldn't agree more. There was a time when this section was alot of fun to read, with real politics and drama going on. The garbage that's spammed here every day is depressing and if you're lucky there is one worthwhile post in it at any given time.
The rest is either spam, flames or people giving each other "mutual handjobs" to flatter their egos.

Yay I wasn't totally in the wrong by QFT'ing Unleashed...
Just some friendly advice to yourself and any other forum posters who take up this practice while we're on the topic...posting "QFT" in a thread without any other constructive thoughts in your post is considered spam by the moderators. It doesn't offer anything additional to the thread, and only creates clutter.
Continued QFT'ing will very likely result in forum warnings for spam being issued, so please try and back up your future QFT's with some constructive thoughts/opinions.

when im *****ing, why do ppl still insist on making threads in the ships and modules forum with "[RMR] thorax fitting" like is it going to be anything other than RMR?.
so people know that when they are using a tool such as eve search or the official forums (or even the setups sticky) that the setups are valid for the current patch. the [RMR] trend started because RMR ****** so many things up that all the old setups didn't work anymore (new stacking penalty, ship changes, new modules, new skills, new drones, etc). it's far easier to start a new thread and shove [RMR] in front of it than to keep the old threads alive which are full of (now) misleading information.
that's why :).

yea. I dont know who they are either. Regardless of the 'bandwagon' i guess they are doing something to show up on the map to claim space.
We've been fight alongside them in Querious space especially in H74 and they even helped out in V2-VC2 against BoB, don't you wonder who some of the non Huzzah in combat gangs are?

I checked the last map thread and noticed: "Omg, so many alliances I never ever heard of!"
In Example the Vox Imperium. Why are you, what do you do, what do you want and expecially where the hell do you come from?
And why is the smash alliance back? I though thy died long ago, and why are thy in Firmus Ixion space? Werent you somewhere around the south-east last time?
Who are [GHOST]? Your really a ghost! Never ever heard of you guys and I browse this forums on a daily base!
OSS is working together with TCC? Whats TCC? Some new drug?
Then we have an alliance called [UK] clamining assah? Whats special about assah? (except my stuff from 2003)
IAC? Claming the mining part of providence??
[ALE/ILN/PHA] ?! Interesting!
And I still dont know who Knights of the south are...
Come on guys, use this forum like intended and tell us whats happening. If I would want to read some kiddies alts I could also read some CS forums. This is for politics, let politics happen!
Ghosts, Smash, KOS (knights of the southerncross is too long for joshua ) and ILN have all been mentioned multiple times in threads that have to do with RA and the Coalition, although i guess it might be hard to spot between all the flames :P

Exactly... Why post on the forums telling everyone who you are what you are doing and where you live... The bigger alliances who dont want to attack each other will come pick on your eventually. If you avoid drawing attention to yourself then you can operate in your corner of 0.0 space for a long time.

Too right.
I remember the good old slag fests that one would parttake in, blindly defending your own alliances superiority in a digital conflict of words and emoticons, fused in with Eris Discordia's vengful finge...clicking!
Oh how i miss it! :(

Agreed , even now important posts get sooo inflated by useless comments but there is also another trend , Alt posts are 99.99999999% flame festivals coz mainly they are made by ppl who want to flame or just make a ruckus dunno if the mods have a solution to make ppl post with their main although i cant think of way around it
