the problem is that you talk bullcrap, i dunno where you take ur numbers but its either an outright lie or utter stupidity.
dont only take ur kb into account, cause its what it is, a pure killboard, most of the losses are missing.
First of all, I would suggest re-reading what my fellow alliance member wrote. He was talking about gang size--not kills.
There is no bullcrap here. Any screenshots or videos of the 3 different days where D2 sieged our POSes, at the infamous loss of 9 dreads total, display a simple fact: D2 constantly outnumbered us on each and every engagement, only to leave after twice unsuccessfuly sieging a POS and once putting a non-critical POS into reinforced. Moreover, two of the (three) main D2 engagements occured during waning European primetime, many hours before US primetime.
GoonSwarm has always shown up to defend XZH, incindentally the sole obligation of a defender during war, when D2 has done what an aggressor's job and attacked. It is not our job--nor is it even common decency--for a defender to attack on terms beneficial for the attacker. You will find no evidence of such "tactics" anywhere in modern warfare, nor will you find such occurrences in the EVE universe. Such logic would make any military tactician roll their eyes so frantically their faces would resemble slot-machines.
Furthermore, GoonSwarm in no way intentionally hides numbers. While our own killboard may lack losses, its ratio of kill:loss representation is still much greater than D2's or YouWhat's. We do not hide behind our killboard. There is something grand in the idea of a relentless pursuit of our goals--and that is what our losses represent. No matter the odds or casualties, GoonSwarm will continue to fight for the things we want.
A few weeks ago we stumbled into a region that had fallen into disarray, that region was Cloud Ring. Once this was made public the boards were filled with comments by D2 and SteelViper pilots alike to the tune of "GoonSwarm will be gone within the week". We seized an opportunity, and we have defended XZH against everything you have thrown at us thus far: double-digit dreads, relentless sniping, and POS spamming (which we did not initiate, something that the EVEmails concerning what alliance erected what POS and when fully support).
What matters isn't who has the most killboard losses, or who lost the most dreads, or who lost the most POSes, or who stays up the latest at night. What matters is who is left in the system once the space-dust has settled. null It may not be GoonSwarm in the end, but I know I'll be spending my time once downtime is over flying my frigate head-on into anyone that suggests otherwise.
ahhh now comes the knowledge ^^
