Been around too long I am afraid, and too much of a cynic to be wishing Cyvok a good rest of his life just yet.
Eve is in your blood, it is IMPOSSIBLE to walk away as easy as this.
Cyvok will be back, and I for 1 will reserve my good byes for when he sells his account or does some other drastic measure.
Leaders are born to lead, nothing more and nothing less, its what courses throught the very arteries that run the length of his body, and his natural desires will eventually push past the self pity he wallows in now, and he will return with a new zest and passion. This is the way it is, I have been there myself many times in many games, as have many other online gaming leaders.
The question will remain as to what he will ply his efforts to next, Remedial stormed back in and took Goons to new hieghts, Foyle for example didn't achive quite that, what the future holds for Cyvok will play itself out in good time.
For Cyvoks efforts I commend him, no one can doubt the mans passion and beliefs, and if nothing else this is a stark reminder to us all that play this great Eve, just how much this means to us really.
This isn't and hasn't been for a long time "just a game", for many of us its far more real and tangible then the other 18 hours we spend breathing per day, and certianly commands more of our passions and desires. It can hurt just as much and it can bring moments of joy rarely felt, it can take us to the depths and bring us soaring into the air, it has the power to bring us to our knees, but its human nature to stand again and rebuild.
Good luck ASCN in the near future, sometimes a change of leadership is needed to see a perespective, and sometimes it garners support and momentum, we shall see where this one leads you.

Can't say I ever met Cyvok, but from what he achieved as leader of ASCN, I can imagine he was a damn good'n. Good luck to Virtuozzo in filling those shoes

Good luck CYVOK, you're an eve institution and no matter what you'll be missed by a lot of people. Hope everything works out, and hope you recover from the pretty stressful situation of leading a major alliance, especially with the added complexity with having to deal with the biggest, baddest pvp alliance around atm.
Just out of interest though, why didn't CYVOK make this statement himself?

CYVOK acheived a lot as leader of ASCN and there's no taking that away from him.
I'm sure he's a good guy in real life and it sounds like that's where his focus needs to be at the moment.
Good luck and all the best to him.
Shocking to see that come from a BOB leader, yet quite reassuring as well. Good to see you don't have a skewed take on the situation.

Beside all that emo bla - iam not a fan of such bs and iam not a fan of cyvok nor to emo leaving with "love will last to eternety"
Best thing that could happen to ascn, time to pull ur finger out of ur ass and accept the challenge. That titan lose, no matter how it hapen, is not ur defeat but can be ur moment of greatest vicorty, cause now its time to stand up and defend what ur so called "friend" builded. So if u want to be something special and be a cyvok fan stand up login, get into a gang and blow up that mofos that made ur alliance leader leave.
@ cyvok dont take it to personal, leave the game and njoy ur rl cause that what keep u paying the bills - eve is just a game and no full time job but ppl tend to forget that.

Good luck, Cyvok, I hope you are able to find something to enjoy out of the game again in time.
Personally, I don't blame you one bit for stepping out of the limelight. People have proven time and time again in these forums that they have no concern for the feelings of the people behind these characters. The way people talk to each other here is a disgrace, and this is supposed to be a game, that you participate in for fun. If people were insulting me constantly I certainly wouldn't be having fun, and fun is the only reason to stay.
People giving you crap for not "staying the course" need to step back and think for a few moments. The ASCN/BoB war is not a real war where real humans die or real freedoms are lost/gained. It is a war in a game, that is by definition supposed to be fun. When you stop having fun is when you leave. It doesn't matter if you're just a little newbie or the head of the biggest in-game alliance. Recreation time is valuable and I fully support anyone making a change when they stop having fun.
I didn't know you at all, even though I was in ASCN for about six months, but that isn't the point. The point is, there is no question that you accomplished a lot in this game and I am sorry that recent events (whatever the cause) and people's very poor manners have driven you away from the alliance that you built and loved.
I do sincerely hope that when I get around to scheduling a Texas meetup like I've been pondering doing for quite some time that you will join us.

It will be interesting to see whether the old maxim "better the devil you know" comes to play and what Virtuozzo will do differently. I won't wish him good luck in that.
However, I will wish CYVOK the very best in what he does next, in eve and otherwise, what he has achieved in EvE, building ASCN to be one of, if not the most effecient peacetime industrial alliances in eve history is no mean feat. Building outposts pre-freighter or jump-enabled craft takes a dedication that I have nothing but respect for.

My personal opinion.
I dont like ASCN or BoB. But I do like leaders with visions and put them into reality. Cyvok was such leader he has been a part of founding the biggest Industrial Alliance build in Eve-Online.
This fact is a major feat and is admirable.
ASCN put up the first Outpost and launched the first Titan,
two new historical achievment under his reign.
I personaly wish the person behind the Avatar Cyvok the very best in RL or if you continue to game in Eve-Online.
Cheers and signing off Galnet.

Amazing, not a single "Can I have your stuff" post.
Im sure Cyvok has a lot of valid reasons for leaving but it doesn't exactly look great does it?
Lose titan
Throw wobbly on the forums
Quit EvE
I've seen people get ripped on for leaving (or threatening to) over similarly valid reasons in the past. So why the change in the community?
That being said I shall be sorry to see him go, he achieved a great deal during his time here, and no one can take that away from him. Regardless of what one may think of him, his accomplishments speak for themselves.
I would, however, have liked to hear about this from the man himself.

It is sad to see you leave. I never had direct dealings with you but your alliance has been great to fly with.
And It is sad that your farewell had to be tainted by someone with so little respect for common decency. You should have been able to say goodbye in your own time.
Fly safe in whatever you do I hope you come back soon and see what your dream has accomplished. |

From the Genesis region, through Xif, the Curse war, the 5/Mass/Ra war, G invasion, complex exploiters, and Bob, you have been a stalwart rock.
From the first Outpost, to the most Outposts, to the first Titan,
you have been an inspiration.
Your legacy will always be wriiten upon the very fabric of EvE Space.
Rest well,it is richly deserved.

Cyvok can walk tall and be proud of what he achieved as a CEO and alliance leader, regardless of recent events. I for one would've been unable to do what he successfully achieved.
Best of luck to Virtuozzo.

Daelin, ever heard of the straw that broke the camel's back. By the sounds of things, it isn't just this one event that has lead him to his decision.
"Can I have your stuff" is reserved for whining nobodies who usually contribute nothing to the game, and that nobody will miss. Cyvok falls into neither catagory.

The change in the community is because he endured exactly those things, but thousandfold more than most. Leading an alliance is quite hard work, espec. when it's 4k members. He has also contributed an amazing amount to EVE, both as gaming environment and histroy. Feythabolis will now forever be one of the most developed 0.0 regions, and it was created under his leadership.
I doubt you'll hear anything more from than man himself on these forums. Actually, he hasn't said anything at all on these forums for a great long while.

Dark day for me, Cyvok was the reason my corp is in ASCN. i wont sing his praise anymore as i have done that in other threads but i do agree on one thing....the HATE
Everyone goes too far....
Eve is a good game becuase it does inspire you to get deeply involved, but it goes too far....
We all get angry and want to try to get advantage on others....but it goes too far....
Look at any eve-o post and see how much hate and anger there is in this game. goto a random eve general discussion section and see "CCP SUCK GIVE ME THIS ETC"
goto the sell forum and find the usual "OMG LOL AT YOU NUB SO AND SO DONT SELL FOR THAT"
Were all a bunch of emotional car wrecks - we get angry at entertainment, we say abuse and hate to each other....
Look at how much hate went into the ascn-bob war posts for the last 3 months....pick one...see? is that healthy competition? no its mindgames and is sociopaths on soapboxes. (on both sides)
You all see the char name and see the ticker and that evokes a emotional reaction "i like him" or "i hate him" and something else clicks that says "im gonna be an ******* to him" or "i agree with him yarrr"
If people want to win wars they should do it in game and leave this forum clear because after 3 months of warring posts i honestly dont think i like the eve community anymore.
At evefest i spoke with people from all the alliances in eve, top people who were so cool and nice and i did have to wonder "are these the same people that i saw write this and that?" if anyone spoke to me like i have been spoken to in these forums at the fest, Rekyavik hospital would be busy and that is my point! keyboard warriors! nice and safe saying outlandish stuff when your anonymous isnt it? were all civilised yet we can act like animals cos CCP let us get away with it! and i know i cant be found so that angry person cant harm me....
Unless something changes it will get worse. Alliances will use constant mind games of the forums as a weapon and the gaming press will continue to think of eve as "specialists only" while it dwindles into obscurity as a middle of the road MMORG. what do you think new players to the game thing of it when they come into this forum?
CCPs playground concept doesnt work when you allow total free reign to a certain behaviour.
