To the pilots of Celes, you will continue to be engaged. All you have achieved from this is put some fire in my belly which is a good thing.
To the would be newcomers to Fountain, I say this, get some bookmarks, pack all your precious stuff into a hauler, set destination to a-1con and make the journey that Darth promises will make your dreams come true.
When your putting out the flames on your loved ones backs you will regret it.

The Celes fleet has removed Xelas from fountain core, some do remain and lose there ships daily, the majority of xelas have moved to their sanctuary of PNQY in which they have admirably constructed a space station. Even though they cannot muster enough force to drive our pod pilots from there own home system. Lord knows what would happen if the mighty ACSN with there vast capital fleet could do to the Xelas outpost. Prehaps this is something to consider for them?
However the main Xelas corp, Dark rising has now fled the alliance after constant bombardment from the forces of Celes. Xelas are weak at the knees and ready to fall the only thing holding them up was the safety of there pos' which are now being brought down faster than they can be put up.
Now Mitch Taylor the head of Xelas has abandoned this already weak alliance, is this a sign of the constant in fighting within the alliance? It brings me to the question, why do they not unite there hundreds of pod pilots to kick us out of Fountain? Maybe new leadership will be able to restore Xelas. Who knows what the future will hold to the members of Fountain and the Xelas alliance.
We are not fleeing from Celes fug, I love you too much.
I just cant stand serpentis rats! i fly tempests!
In all seriousness, Celes are an excellent PVP corp. They are fighting an alliance made up of a mixture of PVP and Industry Corps. Therefore I am not suprised at the losses so far.
Dark came to Xelas to help them grow, with them sitting at 6th in the rankings, I have achieved my goal. Sadly I get bored quite easily, therefore Dark is moving onto pastures new, to seek out a new thrill.
Good luck Xelas!
Good Luck Celes!
p.s. fuggy... pull my finger?

Good luck mitch i`m sure Dark will do well wherever they go next. One thing I would like to ask is will someone be taking over xelas or will them remaining corps make a new alliance?
Blue Flame has been the top dog in Xelas for a long time.
I was his number 2.
My replacement has already been found afaik.

words
I am an old man in relation to the EVE universe, I have seen many great alliances prosper and many great alliances fall.
One factor is constant in all alliances. PVP corps always do well fighting them. The reason for this, with the exception of BOB, most alliances are not really that good at pvp. The whole alliance mentality is not cut out for effective fleet operations. Some alliances have mastered it, but most rely on one or two big corps to prop them up. Celes know this and as such should stop the chest puffing on here, its not a pleasant attribute. Ever heard of being quietly successful? its much cooler!
Leadership of an alliance is always a tricky job. All individual corps have their views and want to feel heard. Whilst sometimes decisive action needs to be taken to ensure an outcome that is for the good of the alliance as a whole.
The members of Xelas will be aware that as the XO I removed the constitution and all forms of democracy under my rule. Whilst privately maintaining a open channel for coaching with individual CEO's. Those corporate leaders that experienced my style of leadership will understand the benefits of showing a strong directive leadership in public but in private softer side.
Within my ranks I had three types of CEO. The first, and most suitable for alliance membership, the followers. Unquestioning obedience. You know who you are and have my corps respect until the end of time. The second, challengers. These CEOS were willing to tell you about the problems, sometimes in great detail! but normally issues can be worked around through discussion. Finally you had the shadow corporations. These ones had a special place in my heart. I spent many hours watching these people and making analysis of their movements, communications and behaviours. These corporations are the most damaging to an alliance. Not necesserily due to their lack of activity, but due to there inability to communicate effectively. The longer you abstain from communication from your leadership the harder it is to eat humble pie and open a convo.
Your corporation decided early in your time with Xelas that you did not like the lack of power your corp held. This has been stated to me by members of your corporation in open conversation. As the leader of the alliance at times I had to pull rank. At this time your corp went into its shell and dissapeared behind MN5. Pshycologists call this behaviour in adults 'child mode' or victim syndrome. The specimen knows they are in a bad situation but refuse to accept any responsibility for their own behaviour.
As your leader I am ultimately responsible for your corps behaviours. Sadly at times you have little time to deal with all issues, if im honest I hoped your corp would change. But regardless I had little time to coach you through your resentment.
In response to your claims I motivated the alliance through threats from BOB. I would like to confirm the following. BOB treated the xelas alliance leadership and memberbase with the upmost respect, a business relationship? yes, friendship? of course.
I response to you leaving the Xelas Alliance to be 'neutral' in fountain. Im afraid this was not a very intelligent move. Your corporation has been set -10 to the xelas alliance and more exciting to me, -10 to my corporation.
Your CEO has dissapointed me with his actions. His words in government channels towards me were not acceptable to me as a leader but more so as a human being.
I will destroy your corporation as recreation for my brave pilots. You will not infect fountain for very long.
Mitch.

Its ping pong time until the 5 days are up and sov takes affect. Meantime we'll have it back in a few hours and Xelas will start dying again
The fact that they can't do it head-on...I didnt come here to sit for 5 hours doing nothing. I came for a fight. We'll fight for it, the fighty bit is all were here for, but were not robots, getting a fleet organised at 5am when you've got 8 hours of work starting at 9 isn't my idea of fun, infact its L-A-M-E.
Welcome to the world of station taking/holding. If you want to keep it you have to do these things. I predict celes new found interest in station holding will change the moment its member base realises that they just wanna pvp again.
