There's something I've been curious about but keep forgetting to ask. Is BOB an alliance that plays or used to Planetside as well as Eve?

Don't think so. BoB was formed a good while after eve was begun, the seperate corps coming from different beginnings.

I'd like to know the history.
When I Join a corp called Oblivion systems, we were about to join an alliance called the phoenix alliance. For some reason The Famous Reikoku Must have caught wind of this and we faced a War declaration in out home system of Avada (in the aridia region).
Needless to say after relentless fighting. (More relentless RKK killing us) We joined the Phoenix alliance, and out of our own saftey lived in Venal, Tenal, Branch etc....
Where we were introduced to the Evolution, Arcane technologies Black nova corportation, Rough necks incorporated (I think it was them not sure) and Obviously those dudes mOo. (please correct me if im wrong)
BKG became a hotspot for the next 12 months. As Conquerable stations had just been introduced. There was also no such thing as an alliance. only groups of corporations calling themselves alliances.
Noone in our corp at the time Even knew what BoB was an Acronymn for, And Showing my gullability I asked a corp member (Xrak, That was you) He said it stood for Battery Operated Boyfreind, I then proceeded to tell everyone in eve that I knew what it meant. Didn't I feel a Tit when someone said Band of brothers must be repelled, and my response was : Who ?
So In a nutshell, I'd love to hear the history behind them.

Bob was forged during the GNW and was Atuk, BNC, Evol, m0o, Reikoku and Rough Necks.
It is ran by the 4 ceo's - Stan, Blacklight, SirMolle and Galavet. None of them knew each other before this game.
Originally we were called CCP... the cookies, cake and pie alliance but CCP asked us to change it.
Rough Necks were absorbed by RKK. m0o was disbanded and the decent pilots were absorbed by all four corps. ATUK became DICE much later. BNC split down into BNC and BNC.E for logistical purposes but are still one corporation in all our eyes.
Considering the recent folding of Norad, FA and SA, that would now put us as one of the oldest, if not the oldest, alliances still in the game in any serious capacity.
As Gunstar says above, you can get more info at our history page.

Rough-Necks were always Rough-Necks. We were a CS clan who migrated to Eve. RN is still in existence at this time. We were part of CFS, then the members joined m0o, then rejoined RN, then were absorbed by RKK. The RN players have been together for around 6-7 years. AS well as EVE, we play BF2, CS:S, Hidden:S together on our own Vent server. Don't worry sir!! They couldn't hit an elephant at this ra..... |

Oblivion Systems had formed from 95% of the membership from a PA corp called DDNN. We broke away and wanted sometime to get the corp together and get some funds etc etc. OS didnt re-join PA straight after splitting away. I cant remember at what point the RKK war dec came. I thought it was just after we split (splat?) from DDNN.
And just because you didn't know what BoB stood for, doesn't mean we didnt, TH.

That would be Sturmgrenadier (SGHQ) who are now part of R I S E alliance. In Planetside (on the emerald server) they were known for pretty much going where they wanted and taking over the whole continent that they are attacking. Sort of like BoB in a lot of ways, especially in their organization and dicipline, which they carry over to EVE just as much but in fewer numbers than their PS portal.
Very honorable guys to the nth degree. No smacktalking, no forum whoring, just plain hard hitters. Hell, even BoB war decced them awhile back from what I have heard. Definetly guys you want on your side.

I will give Xrak right about, what he wrote. I also knew that Oblivion Systems derived from DDNN, whom were a part of PA, but after that had little love for them. Oblivion then joined FA, for a time. Furthermore, if Xrak said something wrong about what Bobs name meant, I am sure he was joking. Oblivon were well versed in the game of eve, and its politics to my knowledge. Furthermore, it would be strange, if they didnt know Bob, as I am pretty sure DDNN were part of GNW. _______________________________________

Ok, these notalgia threads are tough to avoid. As I think DBP pointed out, there is a great read on the BoB history. I also thought I would pop out of the wood work as I was in DDNN and Oblivion Systems as well. The RKK war dec came not too long after OS had formed and was getting reassembled down in the armpit of Eve space, also known as Aridia. OS rejoined the PA (let's face it OS was the entirity of DDNN minus Drake Dragon and Nikek Notlad). A little more fighting, mostly along side GODS for me since they were US timezone peeps and I made several good friends then and learned the fine are of losing ships and then later causing people to lose ships from our infamous enemys of the day, BoB. Anyway, it is a strange cycle of gaming that one time enemies of course are now the same pilots I proudly fight beside.
Some day I will have to do a comparison of a corp coming of age with that of an alliance because in many ways they are the same. The key of course is getting the right leaders in place early on for the group to have long term success, otherwise you just end up with endless changes of leadership that hinder the proper growth of any group.

Because the PlanetSide Band of Brothers was entirely wiped out by a banstick.

There are PlanetSide players playing, BA and The Republican Guard have corps here, M7 from Markov did, I'm not sure about any other Emerald outfits, but Markov has a corp/channel that you're welcome to join. (Assuming you can find the password)
As someone mentioned, Sturmgrenadier is here in Eve, but they're everywhere in the gaming communitites.
But no, as far as I've seen the BoB here is not the PlanetSide BoB. -----

Thank you for clearing up that question. I've observed some of BoB's work on Planetside and they were impressive in their tactics and would like to see how they do things here in this game (even if that means having my ships being targetted by them :| ). It's nice to finally know the BoBs from each game are seperate groups of people. |

Hi clashy! I'd do my normal greeting but its a but too public here.
Hello draco! OS didnt join FA for a fair while after they had left PA.
Welcome Back Presidio! Last time I remember speaking to you was on PA TS, probably with Krullz moaning about not having any weed, and claiming I was Jade.
Hello yolan!
And hell yes, it was simpler back then. Cycle jamming anyone?
Anyone miss shooting at the station to claim it, rather then spamming annoying boring POS's?

Newsflash, not every Legolas in any MMORPG is the same player.
Uninventive names tend to get picked up over and over again. So yeah, when naming your character or corporation, don't go for obvious pop culture references unless you're fine with getting "oh but aren't you that guy from..." tells over and over again.

Edited by: Horb on 04/08/2006 03:48:00 GNW really took it's toll on just about every entity in the north. FU, COD, NORAD, PA, Unicorn, ect... were all destroyed or weakened significantly because of the war. There were a select few that came out of the war stronger. That would be what we know today as BoB. As I see it anyways...

Those were the days. At one point during the war the stations in Fade became non-news. The German corps of PA would take it during the day and the US based FU would take it back at night. Rinse and repeat every day for about 3 months.

Evolution came from the Homeworld community, and quite a lot of seperate people came from CS, dunno for the rest.
But aside from a few single pilots, i'm pretty sure BoB has had nothing to do with Planetside.

Ahhhhhh, The days of station claiming ! those were the days. Shame BKG was such an Armpit of a system. But spamming the station for what seemed the best part of a night in a fleet, Only to have Those guys at BoB retake it when we logged off. Control of that station was hilarious, it used to be about 80% BoB 20% PA occupancy. Timezones played a Massive role back then, you really noticed Euro/US timezone differences with regards to occupancy.
Ah those were the days, None of this PoS nonsense. Maybe they oughtta have the PoS system inplace for outposts, and return the conquerable stations back to that. (Then again maybe not)

I know what happened. I just watched my version. I split it, and posted it in two parts, and you were in the first part after the Crielere event, in the bit where I ran my Mega into a sentry gun barrage. Unfortunately, all the credits were on part two, which was the zombies bit.
I don't think we had a chance to fight that evening, as I was going for your wingman just before I concorded myself. .

dbp
Not all that accurate tbh...but pretty close.
Originally the starting partnership of the BOB corps started with evolution and m0o who were known as "m0ovolution". As the GNW was starting Evolution invited BNC and RKK into the partnership, while m0o vouched for Atuk to come into the partnership. (Can't remmeber how RN came in need a reminder if anyone remembers.)
At first when flying together there was tension between m0o and BNC/RKK because of their previous history vs eachother. But it soon worked out and went on quite well. The alliance really started to take on solid form through out the GNW. During the GNW Atuk started taking on side ventures away from the alliance, by taking on sponsored industrial corps. It was frowned upon by the other member corporations but was taken worse by m0o who had vouched for atuk and look upon Atuk as "Sell outs".
Right before the end of the GNW m0o had disbanded and went back into hibernation. Not long after Atuk had left bob aswell to form The Five. My personal experiences within bob ended there, so the rest of the details you'll have to gather from other peoples posts.
And DB "m0o was disbanded and the decent pilots were absorbed by all four corps"? hardly... Frankly that's insulting, You know jack about m0o and it's pilots and history so don't pretend like you do. Bob got some of m0o after the disbanding. The majority of m0o's "decent" pilots resides in FZN.

Edited by: DB Preacher on 07/08/2006 20:01:32 Well, actually odet, with respect, you're talking a pile of crap.
You want the actual timeline from someone who has a memory?
Evol triggered a war versus the newly formed PA. Evol leave. RKK trigger the GNW. Evol return from day 1 to assist at the same time as BNC, then in NORAD, and pledge to fight. Later, m0o are asked to join the fight. Evol, m0o and RKK become Cookies, Cake and Pie alliance. Then ATUK are asked to join the war. BoB is formed after CCP ask us to disband the name. It is originally ATUK, EVOL, m0o and RKK. BNC are asked to join and agree after a short period of time. RN splits off from m0o. RN join BoB. GNW is won. RN merge with RKK. m0o disbands and all important members from the GNW left join the other BoB corps. The remainder of m0o join your corp (possibly after a brief foray with another corp which I've forgotten the name of currently).
I guess we'll have to disagree with who was the important m0o people from the GNW but I know that I still fight alongside those who I fought with mostly in the GNW. The only ones missing currently are people like sass, stav and a couple of others who are no longer in the game but were an integral part of the GNW.
But hey, I'm sure you're still important in your mind.

Bob was forged during the GNW and was Atuk, BNC, Evol, m0o, Reikoku and Rough Necks.
It is ran by the 4 ceo's - Stan, Blacklight, SirMolle and Galavet. None of them knew each other before this game.
Originally we were called CCP... the cookies, cake and pie alliance but CCP asked us to change it.
Rough Necks were absorbed by RKK. m0o was disbanded and the decent pilots were absorbed by all four corps. ATUK became DICE much later. BNC split down into BNC and BNC.E for logistical purposes but are still one corporation in all our eyes.
Considering the recent folding of Norad, FA and SA, that would now put us as one of the oldest, if not the oldest, alliances still in the game in any serious capacity.
As Gunstar says above, you can get more info at our history page.
dbp
Not all that accurate tbh...but pretty close.
Originally the starting partnership of the BOB corps started with evolution and m0o who were known as "m0ovolution". As the GNW was starting Evolution invited BNC and RKK into the partnership, while m0o vouched for Atuk to come into the partnership. (Can't remmeber how RN came in need a reminder if anyone remembers.)
At first when flying together there was tension between m0o and BNC/RKK because of their previous history vs eachother. But it soon worked out and went on quite well. The alliance really started to take on solid form through out the GNW. During the GNW Atuk started taking on side ventures away from the alliance, by taking on sponsored industrial corps.

That's more or less how I remember things with a couple of small differences. While RKK definitely had BNC support in spirit from day 1, I'm pretty sure it took about 3 days or so to actually get the NORAD council (/me shudders) to agree to any direct involvement.
I was also pretty sure BNC were in on the Cookies Cake and Pie alliance shortly before the name was changed to BoB. Could be wrong on that one though, I'm not going to claim it's a clear memory and it was always more about who we were flying with than what the label was at that point tbh.
Also there was a period where RKK, m0o and EVOL were collectively known as Reikom0ovolution or some such long winded thing before Cookies Cake and Pie came about. Had some fun co-ordinating fleet actions so that m0o and BNC wouldn't meet in space during that time.

tbh it took norad council back then days to decide on anything. Biggest mistake for norad was letting bnc leave.

Man I never thought I would agree with one of DB's posts but that's pretty much how I remember it as well. Watching through the barrels of my guns ofcourse (I was there during the first Evol war and the GNW). I also remember quite a few m0o members joining Evol during that period.
What I find really funny is that after all that time and effort we all invested to regain control of BKG none of us are there now. Suits me fine though I am so sick of that god forsaken place. I was suprised my monitor didn't have a BKG burn-mark in the corner.

Do youmean Equilibrium? I think they were formed from pilots from Unicor mainly Everlasting Vendetta. I remember Josh C was part of them. They didnt last long up north, neither did Mercury and Solace (sp?), (the pvpers from Xanadu, or somethimg)

I know where they came from, check Lorth's employment history. I just don't know to what extent they were involved with BOB, or at the time CCP. Its a piece of history that I don't know the answer to.
But just as an aside. Go to page 255 of this section, and start reading. Its really cool to watch the politics of the GNW start evolving, esp since you know what happens in the end.

Odet, re-read what I wrote the second time.
I said all the important m0o pilots who were involved in the GNW.
That meant the m0o pilots who were in Venal day after day, fighting alongside evol and rkk until the end of the war.
If you can't understand the difference between that then I guess your ego really is blocking your view.
So either way, stick it up your rear port thruster to chill off for a while.

Oh no, I lost your respect. I'm sorry, but the respect of a 3rd generation dictator m0o peep doesn't really mean all that much to me.
The day I lose the respect of the guys like TWD, Sass, omni etc, or any of the dudes in BoB, I might be slightly worried.
Till then, I'll just keep doing what I do. dbp

As I was just slightly involved in the GNW, Post, Present and Past I say this is a pretty accurate assessment of the way it went down. At least from the outside looking in. Also as has been stated it is all on the RKK Forums and a very worthwhile read for those that want to really be in the loop. May I suggest you go there and spend the time learning and not here smacking about something before you do.
