Originally by: Nesa Generally the term 'pets/slaves etc etc' may not be accurate in the literal sense
You should put this new meaning of the word "slave" on dictionary.com. It's insane people will twist the meaning of a word just so they can have their daily bob bashing on eve-o.

Originally by: Ab Initio So many people are willing to criticize the choices of these vassal states, and call them cowards for not standing on their own. Often Xelas is mentioned as an example of this behaviour, by people that know nothing of that alliances history or heritage.
Consider the alliances that at one point set out to destroy them: PA, FE, G, VC and FA... Xelas are still standing, where are they? Lets hope that your courage holds when you are set upon by the same kinds of forces.
You call it standing, I think 'living on their knees' is more a appropriate description.

I can only speak for myself, but I was never a BoB slave/pet.

Harsh words from a former ASCN member. I am tired of guys like you who have never stood on their own two feet, bar two weeks, coming here preaching about slaves & pets and how horrible it is to be a pet.
Play the big boy game for a couple of years longer and then you'll be allowed to voice your opinion. Whether we'll actually listen to it is a different matter though. --------------------

Bad phish.
it ok. we dont need to phish. as a bob member you would know. new blog up btw.
The tenant/slave/pet system works very well for carebears who dont want the responsibility of fighting for their 0.0 space, and great for pvpers who dont want to carebear. anways if people dont like being a slave, they should do something about it rather then whine on the forums. not many people have.

I touched a nerve I see.
Point is that its hard to break an alliance that doesn't have a backbone. Surviving as an alliance is not necessarily proof of strength, it can just as easily be proof of a lack of inner fortitude to stand up for yourself.
And note I wouldn't call every alliance living in BoB space a 'pet' or a 'slave'. From my point of view, an alliance with a clear goal to remain small (lean and mean) like the MC for example, can determine for itself with justifiable reasons to seek a tenant position. It would not be very practical for them to own space on their own, they're away on contracts a lot and lack the numbers (by their own choice) to defend their own space at the same time.
But a large alliance, like for example Xelas, still needing protection from a landlord is in my opinion different from MC.

Originally by: Nero Winger btw guys. some insider informations but pls dont tell to outsiders.
did you know?
D2 is a pet alliance of BoB existing only of alts (all 1600 my alts) hauling all the day to finish out 25 Titans and selling 0.0 living rights to other so we can maximize our profit due to a comparative advantage that bob space is better and not "infested" by everyone. Also splitting the 0.0 of bob into our Alt Alliance (D2) helps you guys to not turn mad and see some changes in the game.
Awwww, u didnt need to reveal that to the community did u. However u are spot on.

Edited by: Redbad on 30/01/2007 10:21:01 Arguably, its more terminology like, medieval feudal system, that reflects how some alliances are working in this game.
Feudalism were legal and military obligations of the warrior nobility of Europe during the Middle Ages. A sort of political concept of lords, vassals, and fiefs.
In short: The Lords grants the Vassal a fief or the revenues in order to obtain an oath of fealty and will protect the land of the Vassal from harm. The Vassal will provide aid and millitary service in return, which he ofcourse obtains from the fief.
History learns us that the system stopped working properly when the Lords ran out of land to conquer to "give away" or when the vassal got its own wealth through other means of the fief, like economy driven projects of gold and assets. You then get a sort of Bastard-Feudalism. It is at that point that the oath of fealty or homage to the Lords will dwindle in strength.
So, in theory, a Feudal system can only work if the vassals have something to crave for. It therefore is considered an aggressive political form to many people. It can be "traded" to death if the Vassal get into more luxury and have nothing to wish for anymore.

Originally by: Hatuk ok im not to much into alliances stuff so pls help me out here.
i read over and over again about BoB slave alliances or BoB pets alliances... can someone tell me which alliances are considered to be that today?
thx
Wouldn't be too suprised to find a lot of entities in EVE can find ground for a profitable relationship with other corps. Call it 'slaves and pets' if you will, but ... well surely that kind of thing is just a well run protection racket. "Sure you can mine on our turf, but we'll have to ask you to contribute to the defense budget".
Or maybe use the kinder analogy of 'government services' + 'taxes'.

If you wanna call out Xelas all the time why not call out FLA again and Goons and prolly even Axe. Ever powerful allainces has smaller alliances that have allied with them, the only difference between bob and the napped north is Bobs allies don't put claims down on josh's little map. Take a look at in game Sov pretty sure Xelas has their own stations and systems as well as FIX and MC.

I love it how people manage to completely ignore the fact that this is a video game where people have TOTAL CONTROL over their actions. If BoB was screwing us half as much as the forum *****s claimed they were, FIX could just pack up and move to empire tomorrow...or the individual members or corps could leave. Fact of the matter is we abide by BoB because its a great arrangement. We keep enemy alliances and corps from establishing footholds near their turf (on the turf we administer that is) and in exchange we get to live, rat, mine, and pvp in 0.0 space. Quite frankly, it would be retarded to reject what is arguably the most powerful pvp alliance in EVE as your ally. Not to mention (again) that this is just a game so if it got to the point where BoB was being overbearing and dominating we would just leave the agreement, sure they might invade, but its just a game, its not like they can do ANYTHING to intimidate is IRL. So the term slave/pet/(insert deragortory term to boost your epeen here) can't be applied in the least; we (BoB allies) are vassals at worst. Honsestly its just a game, if you think people a sacrificing their principles over some digital turf then you seriously need to have your head checked. But this has all been said before, so maybe it needs to be dumbed down.
The guys with big gunz said they'll watch our back if we watch theirs. If they were mean to us we would say no and leave.
Simple enough for you?

All this op is trying to do is have a dig and create unease between BOB and its relationship with other factions who live within the BOB area of influence.
Its very similar to people moaning about why MC dont literally shoot themselves in the face by war dec'in BOB for 3million isk on a paper thin stratergy.
My message to all BOB and related parties...ignore this s**t stiring.

If FIX are BOB allies and not pets, then it is about time you put up POSs to claim sovereignty of the region you own.
Can't do that?
Well then I guess you are just cute little pets. But do not be sad, BOB is good to you. Praise the mighty BOB

Congrats you failed reading comprehension, read the whole post before flaming out of left field moron. But I guess thats too much to ask from the average forum *****, guess I misunderstood the situation, people like you are just here to boost your epeen by flaming an alliance you've probably never even seen in game, let alone actually fought against. Anywho what i get for trying to explain things to chronic WoW addicts, have a good time trying to sound significant over the forums.
