I understand that this was a test but really, you keep your valuables in a cardboard box gaurded by a crippled hamster and someone is going to take them. You don't need to test that.

IMHO, the Big Blue's big mistake was to go for a neutral's policy which always encourages pilots in the area, wether in Big Blue or not, to see the facilities provided as a free ride.

Neutrals in 0.0, specially where conquerable stations are concerned, does not work. CFS proved that pretty conclusively back in the day.

I still don't understand why an entity like EVE-Univerity would forego a fantastic recruitment opportunity like providing 0.0 access to new players, in order to satisfy the unworkable idealistic notion of free access to 0.0

BLUE did the same mistakes CFS did back in the day.

There are no neutrals in 0.0, only blues and not-blues..

Zz might kill me for saying this given his ties with U, but its awefully convinent that with Naga/Blues outposts and ship yards gone, one of the MCs prime competitors in Capitals Building goes bye bye.

A shame to see their enterprise go under.

It is common knowledge that there are one hell of a lot of people in this game who do not want to see twenty more corps like The Establishment running wild through their territory with nigh-unstoppable, fleet spawning monstrosities.

That alone is reason enough to remove an alliance, at this stage of the game.. Perhaps in a year or so, when Motherships are beginning to replace the carriers in the large alliance capital front, perhaps then, there may be room enough for alliances such as Trust, and The Big Blue to start rolling motherships etc off the production lines..

If people wish to place blame for TBBÆs ultimate fall, they might want to look at the continued efforts of corps like SAS over the past couple months. Even with the number of people in this and previous posts who have pointed out the two months of near constant siege the constellation has been under after the MC left, there are still those who wish to lay the blame at our feet for the fall of Big Blue.

By their own admission on more than one occasion, TBB has no one to blame but themselves for failing to put their foot down and hold their own space. Of key note in all of this is that they failed to create and fund a dedicated military force, such as what ISS has done with the ISS Navy, to drive off the riffraff and opportunists that plague any 0.0 resident. Depending on the good will of the community goes only so far because, eventually, someone is going to come pounding on your door looking for a fight.

..... With the Nyx though, we can simply up the ante by jumping it in, and we do use the Nyx in a very unrestricted way. Will most likely be our undoing, but we see no reason to hide it because it *might* get blown up one day to a trap.
