CO2 Reset standing with the Imperium!
At last they found the Kahunas to do the right thing. |

At last they found the Kahunas to do the right thing. Like all other events in this war, they were offered a big wad of money to give up their loyalty. And if a little bit of money is enough to tide you over, "we don't want allies like that anyway". CO2 set a trap for their own coalition and it didn't work. Now they may join a coalition of alliances that is being held together by nothing but promises of free money and Goon super kills. Once either of those start drying up, someone in that coalition is going to backstab the rest and everything will fall like dominos. And that will happen long before "The Good Guys" even have a chance of taking Deklein. So enjoy the good fights for as long as they last. These are exciting times for EVE no doubt. But Goons and the Imperium are not going anywhere :)
I think you are just towing the party rhetoric with your first sentence, Loyalty/Isk wasn't the reason and you know it, Being pushed to one side by the Diplo's/leaders and keeping them in the dark over issues time and time again was more the case.
I agree with your second sentence but which one is first to dry up should be your concern.
There is no doubt that by them leaving you have lost a big offensive/Defensive force.
If the other two alliances being talked about also leave then you have serious problems. |

If the other two alliances being talked about also leave then you have serious problems. I don't know the exact history with CO2, of course there was more leading up to this than mere cash, but it was definitely a factor. Their own CEO admitted as much. From their own goodbye statement it became clear that they often didn't see eye to eye with the leadership and chose not to speak up about, even though they could have and should have. Instead of bringing their issues to the table they chose to backstab their allies over their own built up frustrations. That is their decision and it will come to bite them in the ass at some point, but such is the nature of EVE politics I guess. As for how much of a loss their departure is in the current climate only time will tell.
I believe they did address the issues and frustrations but being ignored long enough makes you think about what you are actually doing and worth, Being taken for granted eventually leads to decisions of this type and to say they backstabbed you begs the question of who backstabbed whom first! Might be an Idea to get Scion's take on this as he was directly involved if he can be objective and not use spin. |

How disgusting of a corp, alliance or a single person to be offered isk to break their loyalty.....hmmmmm wasn't this has The Goons disbanded BoB? The promise of riches for one and infamy for another!
It does make you think doesn't it! |
