A quick look at Dotlan shows that the top 10 alliances in the game are pretty much the same.
Do you miss the days when there were more than just a few alliances in null sec at any given time?
IAC, Foundation, IO, Aggression., Sc0rched earth, Atlas, Firmus Ixion, BoB, MC, TCF, YouWhat, Axiom, et. al.
What ever happened with Tortuga and Seleen?
IRON, BRUCE, Morsis, BDEAL, Zenith
Did we ever "free Kartoon"?
When did the game turn into everybody on team A or B?
and do you miss having more teams in nullsec?
Do you think these changes will make that a thing again? |

And not to mention SE, SA, FA and Curse alliance.
And yes i do miss some of those alliances, or at least the content theat was created because of them.

Nope, because once players made it to that level they can never turn back.
But to the first question, yes i miss it personally. Both because the forums was filled with multiple groups of people shouting at each other (Not just smugpost from those few at the top and "grrgoons" from the noobs.. It was a colourful and interesting setting in forums (and ingame) then), and because the game itself is choking now.... in contrast to a live and vibrating nullsec.
But as stated, we will NEVER have that again.. there will always be a way to clump together obscene numbers of people to become more powerfull than "the others". And since it has been done and demonstrated (cfc/N3), it will be done again.

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. |

When people started all dogpiling into the biggest groups, abandoning their alliances which fell apart, and all just congealed into a steaming mess of CFC, N3, and Proviblock. I mean, sure, there's Hero coalition, but they're basically just an N3 pet/interest group/meat shield.
I think a lot of us would rather not be in these giant coalitions, but when the game favours them, and going against the status quo is practically impossible (under current mechanics), it has forced even those who would rather things be as they were, to adapt to the current system.
Hopefully over the next year, we can see some of the good old names resurge. and some of the players who once carried their banners returning to bring back the glory.
Also Grrr Goons. |

I remember Lord Zapp and co terrorizing fountain alliance as well as the I don't even remember who controlled querious at that time. C something. I rememebr when the first player controlled npc stations were introduced and how there was a mad scramble to claim them. With jump fatigue I hope smaller entities will pop up and hold their space leading to more small scale engagements. It's better for the game overall. I feel that CCP is heading in the right direction and that's why I am back in the game.
If this game can get back to the 2008-2009 era where this game was at its peak we would have a lot more fun. Hell, I am all for bringing back the old POS sov mechanics..... bash me all you want but I enjoyed those way more than the whole ihub none sense. |

Quick look at dotlan? Okay.
Northern Associates: 652 systems. 10617 members.
Shadow of xXDeathXx: 272 systems. 6084 members.
Brothers of Tangra: 126 systems. 4057 members.
Greater Western Co-Prosperity Sphere: 82 systems. 2363 members.
I do miss the old days where people actually f'ing did something about renter empires. NCdot is renting out almost 1 in 4 claimable systems that exist. Look at that big brown shitstain in the south. The alliances I remember would jump through their own assholes to shove their collective dicks in that pie. |

Really miss those days from The Five, Band of Brothers, FIX, Ascendant Frontier, IAC, D2, Lotka Volterra and much others. They all had charismatic leaders in wich a single miss understood line about one of them in these forums could spark a war in game with devastating effects.
Today we have alliances and leaders that were (are) happy in growing rich for years and uncapable of turning the table up side down, because they were in the mood of it. Today the leaders are the ones of the "Botlord" kind.
TBH I have to give a special word to Vince Draken from NC. for actually "turning the table" when they went to war against the entire CFC knowing that they would lose in the end but didn't give a **** about it. It was the last time I saw some old fashion "**** politics let's smash them the face ... why ? Do I really need a reason ?"

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 |

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 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.

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... |

C something. I rememebr when the first player controlled npc stations were introduced and how there was a mad scramble to claim them. With jump fatigue I hope smaller entities will pop up and hold their space leading to more small scale engagements. It's better for the game overall. I feel that CCP is heading in the right direction and that's why I am back in the game. If this game can get back to the 2008-2009 era where this game was at its peak we would have a lot more fun. Hell, I am all for bringing back the old POS sov mechanics..... bash me all you want but I enjoyed those way more than the whole ihub none sense.
C something was the Coalition of FreeStars. Wasnt controlled by anyone. The intent was for it to be open to everyone. Black avatar was one of the big corps at that point kinda the only one i remember as i was in it. This made a2 and hed profitable places as well as being very close to the xanadu bears in fountain.

Disbanded extremely quickly after BoB originally threw the Goons/RA out of Delve and turned their attention to their old friends who betrayed them.

Seleene had a great goodbye post - check it out here.Seleene wrote:To the members of Band of Brothers - to paraphrase a line from GÇÿKill BillGÇÖ: GÇ£Those guys deserve their revengeGǪ and we deserve to die.GÇ¥ 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.
Some great memories with great folks and fun Alliances/Corps mentioned in this thread. It was rarely ever dull.
As for the MC Seleene certainly had no stomach for the fight, odd I thought, for someone who was supposed to be bold. The interesting thing is if he had it may well have been a much tighter affair with the distinct possibility of a BOB collapse. BOB were also in a little bit of a quandary too (I wont go into the detail of it). As I say though he wasn't interested and had BDCI remove its assets from PB leaving those of us who were up for the fight stuck on the then front line in Querious and a little light on hardware. He also handed off the Alliance CEO position to MyndPyre Ryche, (a great guy) long before he made that forum post leaving the poor guy to handle the anger and distaste coming from those of us who were up for the fight. Ultimately of course that lead to the breakup of the MC. So just to clarify Myndpyre was at the helm not Seleene. History is history though and ultimately the victor tells it their way.

Jericho Fraction and Star Alliance were better IMHO!
Fought against BoB (PA), with BoB (EVOL) and for BoB (20th) in the GBC and yes I miss the old Alliances and the vast content they brought to the game. I miss the content that used to be here in CAOD also. The Daily Jade, the propaganda from Molle, the PA is Dead posts the fact that a few well thought out words and you could start a regional war. I miss the emotion that used to permeate throughout Eve, the anger, the bitterness and the fights and campaigns they would drive. It was always easy to motivate a bunch of pissed off pilots to fleet up! War had a reason, a cause, there was more at stake than a lost ship. People now with a few exceptions are happy to sit back and count their Isks and act like they are a threat rather than be one.

I started playing eve back in early 2004 under the character name Kaleeb. On my second day in the game I thought it would be a good idea to go and explore 0.0. My first jump in landed me in a Black Omega Security gate camp and I was promptly sent back home via pod express. Since then I have several good memories of famous alliances/corps and people:
Force of Evil (FOE) - A few months after the above incident I joined a pirate corporation based in the Mara/Dantumi area called Shadow Squadron and we ended up with the Force of Evil alliance which was based out of OBE and was a combination of the most dysfunctional, colourful and crazy pirate corps such as Forsaken Empire and Corp 1. We were led by Foyle and an often drunken C4w3. We had some great fights against Xetic (the alliance before ASCN) and the newly formed Mercenary Coalition.
The Five - What's not to like about flying with ATUK, Shinra, M.Corp, Supremacy, Black Omega Security! I'd joined the game around the time Curse Alliance disbanded and having heard so much about them I was keen to see what these powerhouse corporations were all about. There were some fantastic pilots in the alliance and I even got to chat to Commi and the rest of Black Omega who had welcomed me into eve so warmly! However joining The Five led to my first big break from eve. The most notable memory is fighting Red Alliance. We started so strongly, rapidly taking huge areas of territory and winning most of the meaningful fleet fights. However RA were so resistant and determined, they embraced the logistical challenges of POS warfare and gradually took back their space. They were putting up towers faster than we could take them down! After fighting what has to be the worst and most draining POS war eve has ever seen against Red Alliance I was burnt out and quit the game for awhile! A special shout out has to go to MACTEP and the rest of RAT for being excellent opponents!
Celestial Apocalypse - The chance to join the "white knights" of eve was too good to be turned down. I'd heard about there infamous Yulai camps and fights against Curse alliance and was keen to see what they were like. When I first joined they had just moved to Fountain to fight against Xelas and Bob. When I looks back it still amazes we what a group of 30 good pilots and one Scotsman can accomplish. Over several months we beat Xelas in a series of fights where we were often outnumbered. Gradually they pulled back further away from us and called in Bob to help them.
The next several months saw Bob rotate one of their four corps against us each month. We had a series of fights against them but gradually we were worn down as we were unable to make isk easily to replace losses while they rotated with fresh pilots. Outbreak then joined us and gave us a fresh breath of life which resulted in some fantastic fun 80-100 man fleet fights.
Mercenary Coalition I joined MC while they were still the roaming menace they started out as and before they become a space holder. Definitely the most organised and strategic group I've played with. They were ruthless killers who had a great talent for setting traps and causing a lot of grief to their targets. My regret is that I joined when I wasn't that active and probably didn't give my best while I was part of the group. Still I have some good memories and North Star Networks will always be a corp I wish I could have joined - if only I was Swedish!!
Omniscient Order Those old enough to remember Cult of Cthulhu will know that Omniscient Order grew from it's ashes. Pound for pound these guys are the best I ever flew with. For such a small group we punched so far above our weight. There were some amazing pilots such as Mitchman, Noobjuice, Jamesw, Hzub and Elgan and it's the one group I probably felt I learned the most from and always felt that bit slower than the rest :)

Well, there is 2 good news for you. 1. Mercenary Coalition is fully back and we are now the biggest true mercenary alliance in EVE now (with almost 400 members) i believe (correct me if i'm wrong). 2. North Star Networks are also back and are invited to re-join Mercenary Coalition. But the CEO have plans on re-building the corp up before he goes anywhere.

Noobjuice is also back into EVE now . He was looking for a new corp earlier and have found a new home now it seems.

So many old alliance being remembered here omg the memories.
I was in the initial MAX campaign with BoB when they absolutely steamrolled the north, what fun times.
A very good friend of mine who lived 2 blocks away from irl (has quit eve now) who got me into BoB was actually the person who mananged to probe down Lord 2evils titan, it was an avatar I believe, forget the system name, I think it was an IRON main staging system. Either way the battles, the wars in eve back then were awesome, I miss them sincerely.
And remember when word got out that BoB had a baby titan in the oven somewhere in delve, back when titans were a big deal, PL and friends didnt know which Pos it was at, only knowing it was 1 of 2 possible towers? BoB set a plan to put all defense on the one tower (the one that didnt have the titan) making it look like it was, and the battle happened there, and I believe PL and friends lost many dreads in that fight 30+ maybe more cant remember, maybe a few titans, not sure, just scratching the service on this whole battle but all I remember is that going down as one of the greatest jukes in eve history. Such good memories though.
I wish we could bring back the old days, or atleast move back in that direction.

if by "absolutely steamrolled" you mean "noobtrain half of the game to the North and still crash and burn in the end", by all means, go ahead...
Burning down BOB, Kenny and IT was fun though.

Love this thread. Anyone remember the warp to 0 bookmark packages we would shell out for?
Old BRUCE Rep and FC here (Remember when we tried that whole political democracy thing?). One of the most memorable times (among many) was when MC DD'ed us in Syndication when we had hundreds of BS's on the way to take Fountain. At the time (early 07' I think) it was the most damage ever done by an AoE DD in the game.
Lots of nostalgia here.
Also, to a post before, when people are complaining about scanning and reinforcement....lol. |

I remember copying them for hours because we had to 'share' our set because we were poor, so you had to set them to copy then go away for 3 hours. Then CCP introduced a thing in a patch where you could only copy 5 bookmarks at a time so then it took hours of shift clicking to get it done.
Xelas, Bruce, Rise and old CVA were good opponents. Bob were all mouth, I remember their pets doing 90% of the heavy lifting. |

And their leader was also the finest RMT guy in the realm.

That basically means that we deemed you low threat enough that we didn't need to get involved very often. Otherwise, your recollection is wrong. It wasn't like BoB was full of carebears hiding behind the skirts of allies... |

I believe your answer is really about leadership and being able to look at the big picture.
You have the large Alliances with an infrastructure already established. The GOOD smaller well run alliances will have to fold into the larger ones in order to survive.
To me the exciting part of the game is to watch the old established alliances without DECLARED Coalitions intimidate small alliances that belong to small coalitions. |
