I haven't shared sensitive information with Butter Dog since about 6 months ago when we first kicked him out of ISS. If he has tried to represent my views in his various dealings with people in Eve, he has done so maliciously.
He has now been kicked out again, and this time he won't be coming back. Despite a clear agreement not to post on Eve-O, he was unable to control himself. To be honest, I don't know what drives BD to do things this way.
After IAC declared war on ISS, our goal with the war was to let IAC know we wouldn't accept random aggressions and threats from longterm neighbours. We decided the goal should be to take the F4 outpost to prove our point. In addition to some of our friends in Eve, we asked MC and VETO to provide shock troops to help bridge ISS's lack of experience with offensive warfare. This they did and they did it the way they always seen to do things: gung-ho and effectively. We always enjoy watching those guys in action because they love what they do :-) It is the first time we work with Veto. Veto is a real closeknit Tlite pvp outfit who impressed in specialist roles which perfectly complemented MC's capital fleet. Everytime we have contracted MC for something, we have learned something about pvp.
We took F4R-, mission accomplished.
All the POS work we did in JBY and elsewhere in IAC space was tactical dispositions to distract IAC and provide additional vantage points for future talks. AAA showed up to bolster IAC at a difficult time. AAA stopped us from doing some of the things we wanted to do: we would have wanted to gain footholds in both G-7 and JBY to have an even better position for negociating with IAC. AAA stopped that dead in the water. We asked all our allies to stand down from that moment on because ISS have NO desire to even try to fight a top alliance like AAA.
We are ready to enter peace talks with IAC. They have chosen Tyrrax as their spokesperson to us and we have talked to him, not with good results so far, admittedly, but we keep trying. We have now worked out several possible solutions to the problem which we will present to them. Stay tuned and fingers crossed for a good result. War is bad for business.
Chairman, ISS
