I too miss the old city state days, but there isn't much you can do. The power projection and potential sov changes can help bring it back to a limited extent, but the coalition advantage is going to exist no matter what is done at this point.
In general, it is human nature to be risk averse, so most will flock to who they perceive to be the safest choice.
That said, the most fun I ever had in null sec was when Triumvirate and PL were both based in Venal, and fleet size hit 30 if you were lucky =D |

Loads of memories flooding back in this thread...
FA, The 5, LV, KIA...
...all great fun to be in at the time - shame there are so many sheep in this game now who just see the blob and what they can get from it...
...maybe someone should start an old fashioned corp leading to an old skool Alliance...
...oh wait.....

Ah I remember within the first 3 months of EVE my corp was drafted into a new alliance called the "Free Space Alliance". We were shortly war dec'd by -5- and than a month later Red Alliance. Red Alliance really put the fear of god into us, glad they are still around.
Also fun times in Against All Authorities and An Eye for An Eye
Wish Curse would reform though, make the current coalitions run for the hills. |

Roman Lynch wrote: What ever happened with Tortuga and Seleen?
Disbanded extremely quickly after BoB originally threw the Goons/RA out of Delve and turned their attention to their old friends who betrayed them. Really quickly as in like a week or two, if memory serves (which is questionable). Seleene had a great goodbye post - check it out here. BDCI is in PL now, alongside RKK.
As for the rest of the question, I do miss those alliances. Obviously BoB, since I was there from the beginning (but missed the end, due to inactivity). But times change. For a long time, the alliances you listed where the ones that had been around forever. |

m0o will continue to sleep. Or most of their members couldn't bot any more and when someone came along to evict them they had no idea how to defend themselves? I.e. the old Northern Coalition alliances. Those lists are like a who's who of botters and RMTers. Can't comment for NC. (without the dot) But we held Delve pretty good back in the day. Shoot, going even far back.. m0o was the epitome of my time while playing EvE. Not sure who even here remembers m0o (the definers of pirating before MC and PL came along)
m0o kinda predates nullsec as anyone knows it and if I recall were mostly a lowsec alliance, they also weren't really around for long and have probably been "sleeping" longer than they were active. They kinda hold that claim to fame of being the first really feared pirate alliance from very early in the game (nasty enough to get CCP to intervene directly to halt their camps, something that has not happened since).
m0o were probably the first alliance that got CCP to change game mechanics specifically to nerf them. |

Jeez a bunch of easy kill scrub alliances being listed.
How about:
BOB(honestly the best all time evil alliance) MC(So many great people) FA & NORAD which then became RISE(Personal experience in my first 3 years makes me mention this) Old RA Old AAA (Evil thug) VA? Some others I can't remember.
RL Culture is effecting the alliance quality of player IMHO.
Players today seem to have less patience than ever. (Even with how easy the game has become) Players seem to be even LESS inclined than ever to try some asymmetric ideas for the sake of content. Players who whine about everything and are basically entitled little pieces of ****
I know all these have existed ever since EVE has been live. But it just seems to be so much more prevalent.
I'll admit that a 10+ year player like myself has a bad habit of telling the old "Uphill both ways to school" story to newer players. But when I hear people whine about Probing nowadays or how long it takes to reinforce a POS..... I just want to beat them with my space cane. |

Only one attempt has ever been made to legitimately take goons out since we took Deklein and it ended in an entire supercap force being trapped by us.
Please invade us, I've been wanting a defensive war for ages. I've literally never fought in one. |

Wasn't some of the BoB corps in Norad before Band of Brothers was created? I was in BNC and I thought we were before joining what I think was RKK, Evol, m0o, and ATUK to form BoB. Sorry if some of the corps are wrong, it's been years. |

Yes some were in NORAD for a short while before joinjng BoB and rolling through to S4 its ok it has been many yewrs now for me as well but I was looking at old screenshot and memories flooded in. Seems a lot has changed since then now a days I run missions or mine to manufacture the great warmachines we all use. |

Ive been in NORAD, oh the good old days, i made my most memorable kill there with my eagle a month after it got released , Zarquon Beeblebrox was the victim, i didn't had a clew back that time that Zarq was the most notorious pirate in the game
Eventually i ended up in Celestial Apocalypse [CELES] for 4 years, not an alliance but a corp that acted as an alliance ^^
Celes made the alliance "Insurgency" somewhere in 2007 i think, best time i ever had, 1 alliance leaded by Darth Solo / The Dark , taking on the entire north, unbelievable what we accomplished back then in such a short time, eventually we lost tho, but with pride.
Almost all my buddies from those times have stopped playing, these days im drifting alone through cold hard unforgiven space not knowing what to do, all what remains is emptyness... |

No love for The Big Blue?
I've had four periods of, "Oh man this game is awesome," and the first was when I was in E-UNI during their nullsec experiment. It was a beautiful, mad dream that was never going to last forever, but it was a hoot for a while. |
