This is a simple question before anyone thinks this is flamebait or whatever. I just want to know and that's it. /paranoia
So recently I've been wondering what happened to FIX. I know they're still alive. They've simply disappeared from Joshua Foiritain's map and I remember them claiming Querious. But now (and I know it's been so for a while already) it's just BoB in Querious. Has FIX simply been accepted by BoB as "residents" of Querious while BoB claims sovereignty or something? That's my conclusion based on what I can see but I really don't know and am simply curious. I haven't looked at the sovereignty map in-game before posting this topic so please bear with me. Thanks in advance for informative answers. --- High quality pics of ALL EVE ships!

Do not take my word as gospel, but they are basically under BoB's roof. Querious is owned by BoB, FIX live there and control it, with certain limitations. As to what they are actualy doing, I'm not sure and was pondering this myself. -------- www.bydi.org - Mercanaries for Hire |

Basically the way we see it in Q.
It's almost entirely populated by FIX with very few BoB (at least in core).
BoB seem to have sovereignty though.

Edited by: Dark Shikari on 08/09/2006 14:05:27 We are doing quite well.
BoB don't really have anything to do with us... they own sovereignty in three systems, and we own sovereignty in about 20.
BoB hardly even visits Querious, so we're pretty much on our own there fighting off AAA and the like. The only difference that the "BoB deal" has made in our daily lives is that now we have to watch a few corps who BoB is charging to use the region ("renters") strip the belts in systems we don't care about.
Basically, everything is pretty much how it was before with some small changes.
For those interested, from what I know, the deal was something like this:
1. BoB doesn't kill FIX, because BoB likes FIX and would rather not wipe us out (they could if they wanted to, obviously, as they could wipe out pretty much anyone else). 2. BoB owns the three stations and charges us very minimal fees to use them (renters get far higher fees). 3. FIX is required to defend the region. BoB will not help FIX, because BoB are not FIX's babysitters. Nor are we paying BoB for the region. It is entirely our job to keep the region secure, and nobody else's. 4. FIX will not recruit loads of small corporations and dilute its leadership structure. BoB will keep oversight to ensure that FIX's leadership stays streamlined and able to deal with possible future crises.

So...basicaly...you're miningslaves for BoB?
And you're for sure paying BoB for the region in form of the station fees/taxes/rentals...and since they do not need to do ANYHTING at all it's a nice trade off i would say... ;-) --

BoB owns the stations, but FIX does a very good job defending them...take a trip down to 9CG sometime if you think FIX are just mining slaves...

Don't forget at the time BoB took the region FIX had in all intents and purposes lost it. Their last stronghold in 9CG was falling and it was back to empire for them. BoB comes along, offers them a good deal and why not take it?
Anyway they seem to be alive and kicking and no doubt still making raids into Catch although I'm sure they miss me being red on their overview.

We do indeed own the stations.
We did so, originally, to prevent our enemies from using them.
Do we insist that FIX use them? No. Do we insist FIX refine at our refineries? No. Do FIX get a completely free roam of Querious? Yes. Have we had to involve ourselves in Q since we took it? No.
So ya'll thought that FIX were an easy mark, a nice easy way to BoB central. Well, they aren't. Primarily because, well, they just are_not an easy mark and, secondly, if you ever get past them, you've gotta get past us AND them.
Any wonder why no major invasions have since occurred? No, nor me.
FIX did what they had to do and, as far as I know, it wasn't a hard decision. Perhaps you could give them a better one?
I look forward to seeing FIX on the sovereignty map once more, for at that point the egg will be well and truely on your face.

We have absolutely ZERO to do with who is in control of FIX. They have their own internal methods of government and BoB has, and will, deal with whoever fixians decide that is.
If that's what a babysitter is, then sure, that's us.

We don't give them a cent except perhaps those who pay them the minimal factory fees.
Basically, we do whatever we want, BoB doesn't bother us as long as we don't **** them off. Not much different than the rest of EVE I would think...

Ah, Dust Angel, so bitter. So bitter that you will troll every FIX-related thread and flame me in D-C every time I chat (requiring me to ban you from the channel every single time!). Maybe you didn't like the fact that your favorite alliance, SA, broke up?
It takes a fool to claim that alliance X is "babysat" by alliance Y when even alliance Y doesn't believe that (and moreso, Alliance Y never has more than 1 or 2 people in all of Alliance X's region).

Edited by: Yodaron Ballsithor on 08/09/2006 16:29:49 I have to laugh at most of the posts in here. Once Dark becomes the official spokesperson for FIX you can take what he says to the bank. Otherwise, I would ignore most of what he has posted, along with what most everyone else has posted.
Suffice it to say, we have a very mutually beneficial arrangement with BoB, the actual terms of which are not open for public viewing or discussion.
Two (2) tidbits of truth in the above posts, though: We generally do as we please in Q, and we do it when and how we please as well. We also do not take kindly to hostile entities in Q space.
To the Axiom Empire chap: We were glad to have you as an enemy and are now glad to have you as an ally.

Oh noes. 100k isk per day.
I can already feel BoB's wallet exploding at the seams. Clearly if we ignored the half dozen outposts, billions of revenue made per day, and hundred ship capital fleet.. the seven hundred man alliance known as Firmus Ixion will have contributed the significant force of one Battlecruiser per month to our arsenal.
Seriously, just end yourselves. I'm pretty sure that some BoB stations charge more to its own members.

When i started my PvP career Querious and FiX were my PvP classroom in T1 frig and Cruiser gangs.
You can have the 7 Tristan's and ill keep the 7 battleship's i got as a newbie.

remeber about 2 years worth of " u live under fountain, ur there bit***,.... ect ect " and in all my time there we fought with them once,, maybe even at that. I belive bob even thought that for a bit ,, but things changed once they started to fight fix with regards to bob thinking Fix where FA puppets and thats how they got to be friends on the battle field, so ... stop the talking and off u go! tell us how you get on and if its bob or fix killing/being blown up by what must be ur oober skill cos u seem so perky today.
