Originally by: Noreen I'm going to tell you what we learned first hand in ASCN after fighting BoB for months, we were nicknamed "hobbits", but we managed to keep a pvp force at bay, these are our findings.
i thought the war lasted rathger week or 2 ... 
Is it a virtue to manage to keep pvp forces ''at bay''? I had a feeling gunships are made to be undocked, im a noob so correct me if im wrong

Well at least your arguement is based on the ingame facts and not personal attacks. That wont help you or make you more right you know..
You claim that the op listed things that he would have done in retrospect. ok. well lets take a closer look.
"1) Your alliance reads the crap on EvE-O, get off your high horse and post some propoganda on here, Fill these forums with YOUR posts, not BoB's. You want to win in EvE, start on the Forums."
How is that "inretrospect"? ASCN tried that. It didnt help them.
"5) BoB and BoB slaves have a symbian relationship, 1 cannot live without the other. Divide them."
Don't remember ASCN attacking fountain? Don't remember their gangs around delve? Tried that too. Didn't help them.
" 1) BoB cannot HOLD more then 1 system at a time."
Don't remember bob taking out a system in feith while killing off stk's dreads in fountain?
In retrospect my ass. This is just the same old bull**** that has been tried over and over again. Go ahead, keep calling me names. See if that changes the outcome.

I certainly do not want to hear or start rumour mongering by asking this; and i am sure CCP would want to make sure that we all know this isnt the case and that we as players of eve know that CCP are trying their best to make Eve as fair as is possible in game.

Actually the question was already raised on our own forums Lyer, i thought it appropriate to ask the question here for clarification and appologize if, as i said in my previous post, that you have mistaken it for rumour mongering. Im sure Bob has its spies in our own forums, as was said above, perhaps you should ask them to confirm it for you. But at least i can ask the question with my main char and tbh was expecting a retorical answer from a 2 month old char like yourself in a 1 man corp which screams at me and everyone else here alt.

A mature answer to a flippant comment from myself. Do I know you as you seem to refer to OUR forums, I dont think so. As for being an Alt - sure this is one of a number of accounts I have and certainly older than 2 months. Your'll find thats the corp age I set up. This way I answer to me and only me and get to say what I think. My remarks run no risk of tarring other people. It complies to forum rules and doesnt change what I think about certain aspects, It just allows me to express my opionins in a more liberated way. Its very common, you should really try it.
But enough of the deflection from your statement.

How is that "in retrospect"? ASCN tried that. It didnt help them.
ASCN were just very bad at forum trolling, goons on the other hand are at least as proficient as bob at forum whoring and drafting internet forum smackdowns.
Originally by: pershphanie "5) BoB and BoB slaves have a symbian relationship, 1 cannot live without the other. Divide them."
Don't remember ASCN attacking fountain? Don't remember their gangs around delve? Tried that too. Didn't help them.
ASCN never had the numbers to do both properly, at its peak in the war it had what, 300 ppl online (remember a big chunk of the A&A channel was AXE) of whom about half were willing/able to fight. This was not enough to try to hold bob and attack the pets successfully.
Originally by: pershphanie "1) BoB cannot HOLD more then 1 system at a time."

What protection did STK's dreads have? next to none and a dread in seige mode at a hostile POS lagged to hell is just a big fat sitting duck unless it has a big support fleet with it.
And by the time this happened ASCN was already a dead man walking.

Hindsight probably.
Knowing what to do is one thing, persuading an alliance to do it is the real battle. Luckily GS directors have experience herding cats.

LOL, just LOL
Goons play one part in this conflict. Causing lag.
If the goons did not have the assistance of 5+ other alliances, they would have been mining veldspar in empire days after they decided to attack us.
Goons, in general, lack skillpoints, pvp experience, and the isk to even consider attacking a 100 man noob corp in empire, much less LV.
Jeez, bitter much?

That applies both ways I think.

How is that "inretrospect"? ASCN tried that. It didnt help them.
There some reason why BoB isn't doing it now then? I'm noticing a lack of BoB posts lately.

"5) BoB and BoB slaves have a symbian relationship, 1 cannot live without the other. Divide them."
Don't remember ASCN attacking fountain? Don't remember their gangs around delve? Tried that too. Didn't help them.
Didn't D2 take a station there while BoB was busy?
Originally by: pershphanie
"1) BoB cannot HOLD more then 1 system at a time."
Don't remember bob taking out a system in feith while killing off stk's dreads in fountain?
So what you are saying is that if BoB had a fleet of 200 at one system and 3 different alliances with a gang of 200+ a piece attacked systems that are each 20+ jumps from each other, BoB could fend them all off at the same time? Don't forget what happened to that LV cap shipyard system. Those kind of numbers are not impossible.
For the record, this isn't a poke at BoB. I just like pointing out how people ignore other facts.

Id just like to point out that for all the accusation at BoB they are some very fine PVPers yes ganking and 5v1 odds will help kill them but the satilite nations eg the bob pets will act as a front for bob as there currently doing.
i'm not to sure about LV's current status but with everybody seeming to take out LV before they move onto bob it cant be good. As for Bob fearing Goon i dont honestly think they fear them, bob are more the type to go down fighting with a smile on there faces and enjoying every minute of it. yes they'll feel regret but lets look at there history .... they go out and fight the biggest alliances they can for the challange. They enjoy it ! ----------------------------------------------- -Who would bring a charge against God's elect ? it is God who justifies- Romans 8:33 |

I disagree, the goons are a force to be reckoned with on their own and saying that their only role is to cause lag is absurd. Perhaps 1v1 LV could beat them but who cares? Same could have been said at the start of LV's anti-RA coalition.
GoonSwarm has been around for a year+ and some of it's members have been playing for 2-3 years now, maybe not the majority but yeah. Putting them down like that is just him being angry at losing space, which is all right cause nobody likes to. Still though that doesn't make that true.
Sure the average goon in space doesn't have as many skill points to match the average pilot in another alliance, but they've got all the experience and more in terms of hours fighting. I'm not saying they're better/all that great to begin with but is statements were patently untrue and mostly unfounded.
