Fair point, but why are you trying to be in an alliance situation which requires you to be online alot and put in a lot of hard work in eve in order to maintain that alliance?
Surely you would be better off being mercs or something?
Or is it just that you enjoy the benefits of 0.0 without the hard work that many other alliances have to put in?

DBp is bang on the money...
Ill give you my situation as an example..
Frankly put I do not have the time to be online and participate in 0.0 affairs the way I would expect others to.
There was a period when I did have the time, and the alliance I was in, fought tooth and nail for its right to be in 0.0
Those days are over for me atm.... Im trying to win at RL, like CEO pyrex put it.
So.. you know where you are gonna find me in EVE? .... in empire doing missions now and then, and not even low sec, I cant be bothered, just a random 0.5 system.
Its not fancy, its a bit dull sometimes, missions kind of get old fast, but I still enjoy pottering around in EVE, kind of like when I first started playing.
What you will never see me do is hanging out in 0.0 pretending I can afford the time to put in the hard work needed.
Its all about being realistic and honest about what you can and cannot afford to do in EVE, time wise and isk wise.

Come on now, the time you spend in these BoB threads is probably as much as it would take to create your own outpost 5 times over, dont sell yourself so short.

but for real, I hope you keep in mind you're facing ASCN. if they dont disband because of internal stuff and call for their fleet leaders + allies to fight you; you will have some hard times... BoB is alone. ASCN is rich in isks, peoples and allies.
just dont anger them too much or they must be capable of annihilate you totally.
saying that you'll *****ASCN frigfleets as you raped the Goons makes me shakle lol

Just go kill some more npcs, will you? And try to avoid ATUK spawns, those proved too hard. -------- The BoB model is bad for business. Incidently the BoB model is more suited for a game such as WoW where as the ASCN model more suited for Eve.

I was reffering to ceo pyrex. First - dude involving himself into 0.0 life, politic, building cap ships, pvp etc. Then - he is stating "ok, guys. you can take it. i didn`t want it anyways". If you didn`t want it - why you involved in this ?
You can tell yourself as much as you want "hey, its only game, this is not real". Ofc game enviroment is not real. Human relations, however, is. If you are lying to your alliance members to "motivate" them - you will do that in RL too. If you preffer to run from problem, instead of solving it - you will do the same in RL. Basicly, you-ingame just mirror of you-in_rl. Think about it.

Originally by: CEO Pyrex Its good fun
Wish I had the same amount of time to play but frankly im busy trying to win at real life. so far my RL char has job level 5 (1 step from a Junior Executive role) and new GF level 4 (not as hot as a minmatar slave but hey she makes a *****ing Cosmo) so cannot be logged in as manically as most of our contestants but that isnt smack, its just truth.
DS1 does not take this game too seriously, sure we get wound up and ****y with people who yank our chain but our underlying moto is a close group of friends who have no interest in spending our lives logged into a computer game to win something that doesnt exist (and certainly as the detriment of our real lives). We are not egotistical, we just dont take much seriously. its entertainment only to us as it should be to all.
All i can say is that there really isnt any need to smack each other. If people want to use GTC to win eve, thats totaly fine it is their money afterall. Winning eve by killing all the 0.0 alliances - wow what a cool goal but requires months of game time and the end result? is it worth all that time spent hunched in front of a pc? in my mind no its not.
I have been playing eve for many years and still do enjoy it but as always there is so much to be done in real life if one wishes to enjoy a fruitful healthy life. spending 4+ hours logged into eve is not what any expert would call healthy and one simply cannot win at RL if you do spend that amount of time playing a game. its an endless balancing act we do to try to keep all the things in a persons life juggled. Some people have less balls, some have more. surely if you have 1 ball with 'eve' on it, thats something to worry about no?
ATM i have too many balls (hehe)
The war is interesting and fun but it does seem to have quite a nasty unspoken undertone that does smell rotten. Have fun and good fights to all i say, everything else is bull****.

dbp
hehe nice retort.
DS1 is a hardworking corp with support in all 0.0 alliance areas. im not saying we dont work hard. My post was more to the fact that eve as an entity is meant to be a vehicle for entertainment. From the many posts over the last few years in this forum we see that it has become much more for some players.
I was always shocked that people would spend their real life money on obtaining something in a game (GTCs) As you so politly put it DBP 'your rich so i can afford to do so' which is cool, its your cash. I do have to draw the line at that myself as it stops being something you enjoy for recreation and time passing and becomes a whole new kettle of fish. Its a money pit as well as a time pit and when looking at it from a global point of view, what benefit is that investment obtaining you? (plus i can think of 100 other things to spend my hard earned salary on such as that nice shiney new M3 i have had my eyes on for months, cant take a sexy lady out for a spin in a titan can ya now)
I have always been in awe of what bob acheive with the numbers they have, i seriously do believe they are the strongest 0.0 alliance and probably always will be as they have no doubt about how good they are and what they want to do. My 'smack' aimed at DICE from the OP was done in anger at something said to me in local from a DICE guy but it was wrong.
Really wish i had that focus but to me eve will always be a thing to enjoy after perhaps watching a decent episode of Battlestar Galactica with the GF and certainly not something to obsess about. Sure if you dont have the other things going on in life, eve is a great way to fill ones time but again its all about balancing those balls.
So when we do get the time spare to play eve, lets do it in entertainment and leave the personal hatred aside. BOB rock and so do ASCN. all other matters are mute.

Aye, I wasn't dissing him because he likes to play with his friends in his corp.
I understand that there are peeps who chill out in this game, don't want to let it dictate their lives in any way etc.
But if you are one of the rl leaders of one of the largest alliances in the game, you would think that maybe you might need to put in a little bit of effort now and again.
Especially when one of the other largest alliances is knocking on your door.
I dunno, I guess I just don't understand it.
How many more ASCN members just want to play this game without any real effort at all?
How many of you think you deserve to remain in Feth uncontested forever?

That's a very interesting post considering your real opinions on the ASCN forums.
I'd post a few clippings here but to be honest, I don't really need too.
I think we both know that you, as much as anyone else in this war, has been doing exactly what you are accusing others of here.
nice backtrack on the post above though. dbp

Actually just to go off topic slightly
How much real life money do people spend on GTCs and such to obtain isk in game?
Never thought about it much until this post, are we talking tens of GBP or is it upwards of 1,000 GBP (or equivilent)?
Why would anyone do that?

Why do you pay money every month to do something in which you have:

Lets imgaine were having a civil discussion for a moment and stop trying to score points young man (ignore the ascn ticker)
If you cannot resist the temptation to spin things to an ingame vent then fair enough, thats your right. All i was saying was that perhaps everyone needs to chill out and relax while enjoying the game. nothing more, nothing less. No Anti bob posts, no pro-ascn posts. just a simple statement of purpose..... eve is for entertainment only. taking it too serious WILL damage ones health (and it seems ones wallet also)
Meeting starts in 10 mins so bye for now and see you in AZN when i have time to play

Don't come preaching to us about how you don't care about this game, aren't interested in winning or want to make it better for everyone.
You couldn't stop answering back so, here are some choice quotes from you.
Originally by: CEO Pyrex when you see a post by KSU Druid, just chuckle at the looney asshat cos he is a prime example of someone who has lost all connection to reality with this game - (seen the southpark episode where they play WOW? Druid is that griefer lol - shame cos i used to quite like the guy but that is what bob does to people, turns them into bitter nasty *******s, his hatred towards cyvok has shown he has RL issues)
Originally by: CEO Pyrex Bob cheat - yah yah no really they do
Originally by: CEO Pyrex Laugh at KSU Druid - a daily group chuckle at the master of the chuckleheads is always great. We also like to sing the mantra - "Blacklight is a retard oohhiiihhooo" rince repeat laugh.
Originally by: CEO Pyrex we all take the hit of being one team. BOB are so segregated and split into BOB UBER PILOT or blacklight **** miner bear (im amazed bobs slave corps live that way) ASCN is one team and thats our biggest strength.
Originally by: CEO Pyrex Respect - BOb have no concept of respect, im going to evefest this year and will happily buy anyone a drink and chat, but i know full well that BOBBITS will be taking this seriously in RL. i have no problem with this as i enjoy boozy fights but i really dont understand why they take it to heart so much.
Originally by: CEO Pyrex To dice - nothing but disappointment. They smack, they log, they use WCS. they desearve not to be in bob as they draw down the strong repuation the original corps have. one day i hope bob wake up and kick their asses out as its obviously dice that duped bob leadership into this war to try and obtain PS.
Originally by: CEO Pyrex XELAS ARE LITTLE *****ES
Originally by: CEO Pyrex But how do we kill those which have no life? (lub southpark) keep the faith, keep loggingon and most of all, try not to immerse too deeply within the game. Above all else keep positive
Originally by: CEO Pyrex And to the forum spies - thank you very much for making my life hell again (4th Deaththreat in game now) and making me fear for my life and my family over a MOTHER******* GAME! to ally yourself with retards who think its funny to scare people in RL....well **** you.
Originally by: CEO Pyrex Sirmolle has prooved once and for all that bobs players are the Evelamic fundamentalists of the game
Originally by: CEO Pyrex Worrying that some of them doing this hate campaign are prolly over 18 and have jobs of responsibility (probably in IT lol)
Originally by: CEO Pyrex I saved all their posts and sent it in a .doc to a collegue i know who works as a behavioural social worker for my local council. When she took a quick look at it all she said was "this is a game for toddlers right?
Originally by: CEO Pyrex We have seen over the past few weeks that bob hold nothing sacred and 'out of order' constant forum spies and TS infiltration combined with personal attacks on ASCN leadership show that to be honest bob are sociopaths of the highest order.
It's just a game though right?
