Just a general question:
Ever since the coalition campaign started, the replays has been posted more and more seldom. Does this mean that they are out of propaganda to throw at the enemys or are they slowly dying from within with lack of motivation to keep up the forum wars? http://blh.scorpionshops.com/blh42_sign.gif http://sigs.griefwatch.net/phpbbsig.php/h4xx/argentblue/blh 42.jpg Please only use one image in your signature and make sure that it adheres to the 24000 byte filesize limit -Sahwoolo Etoophie |

Well i see 2 alternatives:
1) They actually fight the war ingame, where it belongs.
2) They got their forum posting privilages removed

The less posts bob make the less you coalition lads will flame post them, tbh im not surprised, i enjoyed the bob posts they were factual and entertaining. Now we are stuck with "Zomg we killed a carrier" posts from everyone. Bring back the bob threads.

Hi,
They have been told not to post as they overdid the last campaign of smack vs ASCN as far as i can tell.
Plus the idea is to paint all the D2 & CA guys as the smacktards so potentially stop people from allieing with them etc etc.
Another form of social manipulation.
Everyone hates the forum smacker...
Tis a good plan really. Only down side is the increase in alt and alt corp posts that come from it. And the number trying to re-inforce the "D2 and CA are the worst forum hoes" line, which we have seen a few times now.
luv & hugs,
SC xx

When either side in this war posts a battle report; it just degenerates into a flame war, as inevitably the posting side puts their biased opinion into it. Hell, some of the flames come from people who aren't even involved in the war. So, why bother reporting at all?
Anyway, there are a few decent unbiased battle reporters out there.
Also, it could simply be down to not having much to report. At the moment it's all POS ping pong.

Nothing BoB would have posted after what happened would have made the crowd calm down. Their overly self-loving, arrogant posts would have just fueled the engine of the coalition even more, something BoB imo doesn't really need right now 
My guess is that BoB realizes that every post they make will be followed by "STFU cheater!!" replies anyway, so they're waiting for the coalition to pwn themselves on the forums. I don't want to see that, so please stop making "we killed XYZ carriers", "what after BoB", "FIX is dead (for the 5th time)", and other similar posts. Let's keep the fighting in game apart from some battle reports.
On the other hand, BoB not posting doesn't mean that they're any less arrogant or that they got rid of their annoying superiority complex. They're still the same self-loving, easy-way out, arrogant "elite" PVP'ers...the only difference is that now they're trying to hide their superiority complex  _______________________________________________

As others have noted its a very transparent strategy to:
(i) wait for the allegations to die down that i cant talk about without getting snipped so they can post without everyone just typing /spawn t2 bpo etc
(ii) wait for all the chest beating being done by the fringe players in the coalition to turn the neutrals against them as has already been seen with youwhat
(iii) that last post by molle was the most restrianed and factual bob post i can ever remember so clearly they are going for the "look at us acting professionally while you are all a bunch of noobs" card probably whilst trying to recruit the best players from both friends and enemies
(iv) they are relying on alts, fanbois and other "elite" players such as MC and outbreak members to get their message across that the cool kids are alll on bob's side.
Best thing the coalition could do is to stop posting on eve-o themselves right now. Seriously unless it was a "fair cop guv'nor we got pwnd fair and square" post when has your opinion of any group ever been improved as a result of their posts on this forum?

The bitterness is strong in you, young Padawan 
Why are you posting here anyway? You are not fighting for BoB (forum fights don't count), and you're not on the coalition's side...the only reason you post is to show people how incredibly bitter you are (for the gazzilionth time).
And in regards to the HULK BPO(s), proof or STFU! All you do is spew around accusations without any proof whatsoever  _______________________________________________

Yeah, I agree. The forum moderaters should immidiately ban everyone that's not in BoB or one of the pet corps/alliance from the forums, so you guys can cheastbeat without getting flamed for it. Go ahead, tell everyone how big your e-peen is, we all love to hear it .

So right now (if I understand you lads right) posters on these forums are:
1) Members of the glorious coallition to bring about the destruction of the bob.
2) MC & Outbreak
3) Fanboys
4) Alts of BoB
Or to put it in other words anybody who is not smacking BoB and is not Outbreak or MC is a fanboy. Well let me say in the most kind manner possible that if you think that you are idiots 
There is my contribution to the flames ... have a nice evening.
Arguably my opinions represent to an extent the opinions of my alliance and in particular circumstances give rise to a valid "casus belli" claim. |

I've got to agree with Grimster and Crellion. This forum has turned into sewer. At least when BOB were posting there was a kind of balance with smack talkers on both sides.
What we have now is the anti-BOB coilition seemingly E-peen waving and chest beating at any opportunity and basically making themselves, with some exceptions, look like fools.
If anybody posts anything that can be in anyway construed as being favourable to BoB or even dare I say neutral, out come the smacktard brigade who accuse the poster of being a BoB Alt, pet or fanboy.
Personally I think BoB have won the forum war by simply not replying.

Oh shutup with the BoB worship already.
In the GNW, BoB and their allies were here smacking all teh time because teh PA had a no forum posting policy for a while.
Same thing happened during their war against FA.
Didnt see you singing praises for PA and FA's restraint then.
The shoes on the other foot this time. Atleast they have people like you barking for them.
I especially remember their holy crusade against CDI for "cheating"

So your respect is strictly reserved for people whom your support politically and noone else is deserving of any respect? Is that the logic you're trying to use.
Oh I see you conveniently avoided the rest of my post. Thinking of an answer?
And the funny thing about grownups is that we can think for ourselves we don't have to hero worship to get our jollies.

I respect my enemies of course, I never stated that I didn't. at least the ones that have shown they deserve it. Nice of you to put words in my mouth. A common practice of propganda, a failing one at that.
As for the rest of your post that I ignored. Simply put I didn't care enough to reply to it, but I'll indulge you this once. What happen in the past is of no concern to me. If BoB or CDI whoever cheated, then thats their problem not mine. I judge by my own experience not by someone elses. Once again you are putting words in my mouth. Try harder.

Personally I think BoB have won the forum war by simply not replying.
Wow some people have short memories. I joined this forum in the closing stages of the Bob vs ASCN war. The abuse Bob, and others, were poring onto ASCN made this forum the most personalist and abusive forum I have ever read. The aim of many posters seemed to be to drive as many ASCN players out of the game as possible. Then we had the Bob witch hunt along the same lines of abuse, abuse, abuse but with the boot on the other foot. So saying things have got worse now is really amazing and says more about the poster making the comment than anything else. Why are you editing the past out? Methinks this is just more propaganda.
The forums are if anything better since the witchhunt receded as you have something substantive to talk about. People have stopped trying to get CCP to deal with Bob and started doing it themselves.
As for Bob not posting - yeah it is smart as it gives people a chance to forget how they behave. Of course you have to have the attention span of a newt for it to work . . .

So saying things have got worse now is really amazing and says more about the poster making the comment than anything else. Why are you editing the past out? Methinks this is just more propaganda.
The forums are if anything better since the witchhunt receded as you have something substantive to talk about. People have stopped trying to get CCP to deal with Bob and started doing it themselves.
As for Bob not posting - yeah it is smart as it gives people a chance to forget how they behave. Of course you have to have the attention span of a newt for it to work
I don't remember saying that BoB behave any better on the forums than their current enemies, and to my mind the only reason that the whole Dev name calling thing has receded is because the mods have come down on it pretty hard.
What I did say was there was a kind of balance when both sides smacked away at each other, (perhaps you have the reading skills of a newt ).
At the moment with only one side smacking basically anybody that might disagree with them or sound even neutral, it is the coalition that are coming across as arrogant fools, not BoB.
And what I say is just propaganda? Which by inference makes me, in your eyes, a Bob Alt or a fanboy.... I rest my case..

Yes, it is sort of funny that you think that. I mean, you yourself may treat it as such, but you are in MC. One of the biggest political influences and 'influencers' in the game. Made even more so by the fact that your CEO sided with BoB.
Your CEO sprouted many things about being a neutral entity and never 'siding' or 'aligning' with anyone. But eventually did a backflip and did.
Having said all that, I do agree with you. It is just a game. Hard to separate emotion from it though. We are human after all. The only thing that saved you is your reference to Mr. Iverson. A very good player. However KG is better. You know he is.  _____________________________ Eldo spanked my sig but I can't be bothered changing it just now. |

Originally by: Krychton I give them credit. It takes alot more balls to not reply to insults.
I'm not so sure that it is worthy of credit.
I've been concerned about their absence, I mean they were arrogant, frequently referenced their dev button, and made many inappropriate posts. We see inappropriate posts by others as well though.
What has concerned me is the greater context. It has been alledged that several of the BoB corps have given full account data to their leaders. This is of course unproven and likewise would be a major violation of the EULA.
However I am concerned that this might be true. That the BoB people are to afraid to post, because of the backlash they might receive from their leaders as much or more so than any flaming they might receive from the Coalition.
How free are they really?
It is something I've thought a lot about in recent days.
I would like to see BoB reappear on the forums. I think in many ways it hurts them more than they see that they have not posted. Yes they should refrain from mentioning dev buttons, should generally avoid commenting to allegations of cheating and such, but I think it does them a disservice to completely withdraw.
It is almost as they believe they can ignore the problem and it will go away. But its not going to go away that easily. Nor are people going to forget so easily.

Same thing happened during their war against FA.
Didnt see you singing praises for PA and FA's restraint then.

Seems to me is there are one lot of people that support BoB, and the other lot that flame said lot and call them Bob slaves/lovers/alts everytime one of them even hits to support BoB.
I think the bottom line is that there really isn't anything to say. Every day there is a post/whole topic on how BoB are cheating etc, etc, BoB trying to argue innocence at al would simply be a waste of time weather it be true or not.
And anyway - why do you need BoB to post, you have all the BoB "fanboys" to flame and insult instead!

1. Smart Leadership to make the decision (no forum whoring), in the given situation. 2. Disciplined grunts, who actually do follow orders.
There you have the two main reasons why BoB will never go down.

To be honest BOB members will always be able to post their opinions behind alts. However I have seen a reduce in the amount of flame.
Not blaming it on BOB but rather that 1 team is out of action, what does the other team do? Yea they sit around and don't do anything. Could of been the other way around and probably been the same effect.
I would still like more concructive posts out of everyone though.

They are clearly intimidated by the immensly powerful and incredibly scary reformed curse alliance. You guys have proven yourselves so greatly in battle, never relying on tons of allies to bolster your ranks, that BoB fears incurring the wrath of your mighty alliance.

A highly educated newt thank you! But seriously you did write "This forum has turned into sewer" impling it wasn't one before which I objected to. If all you had said was the comment on balence of smack I wouldn't have responded.
Originally by: Der Pfaffe At the moment with only one side smacking basically anybody that might disagree with them or sound even neutral, it is the coalition that are coming across as arrogant fools, not BoB.
Bob may not be smacking but plenty of people on their side are. Yes elements of the Coalition are pretty smacktastic however the only ones I would compare to Bob are the Goons. Bob's smacking of ASCN was well beyond the normal semi-incoherent rants. Spies selectively using forum material and a campaign to dengirate individuals came across as a calculated move to demoralise/humiliate their enemies and encourage them out of the game. The Goons campaign against LV shares many features in terms of the propaganda war. Such a shame spying is considered ok in this game. The consequences are nasty and that is the problem - it is not a moral issue.
Originally by: Der Pfaffe [And what I say is just propaganda? Which by inference makes me, in your eyes, a Bob Alt or a fanboy.... I rest my case..
The propaganda comment referred to "So saying things have got worse now" - it wasn't a blanket statement.
Don't know where you are going with resting your case by presuming that I think you are a fanboy or Bob Alt. I don't think you are a fan boy or a Bob Alt and I have alot of respect for MC. However you are on a side in the war and that is what I'm taking into account. MC are not fan boys and if you are Bob alts then somebody isn't sleeping.

[off topic].... if you still think Global Warming is a natural phenomena and not man made... I strongly recommend watching "An Inconvenient Truth" by Al Gore. He presents some very compelling evidence and its kinda scary. [/off topic]
on topic
I've been expecting a thread like this for some time now, with readers wondering why BoB is not utilising the forums as a propaganda tool.
The answer is simple, they know full well that they have no moral highground to stand on. The anger within the EVE community about a *certain issue* is still strong. And rightly so. It is quite possible that CCP itself has requested them to tone it down but thats just speculation.
BoB aren't posting because it would be counter-productive for them to do so...... thats all.
Now what does that mean for the coalition?
Well, to be honest it means nothing.
The forums are part of the EVE-experience, and yes sometimes its a dirty smelly place, but its also part of what makes EVE fun.
Should everybody else stop posting just cause BoB ain't posting?.... Hell no.
Enjoy the game, enjoy the forums.
The task for the coalition remains the same, forums or no forums.....
BoB is still doing what it does, its just that they aren't procalaiming it to all and sundry anymore.
Nothing's changed.. only the signal to noise ratio. The forums have changed very little in over three years they are still the place where you can find the most ridiculous posts you could ever imagine and the most sane ones, all within single threads.
In other words, BoB are missing out. For the Coalition it should be business as usual. Have fun with the forums, they only have as much effect on what happens ingame as you let them.

Well there is another side to the forum whoring that noone seems to see (or talk about)
Used as a propaganda tool by bob, the smaktalk was backed up by some pretty good fights .. with the coalition... i've yet to see one interesting post followed by a nice fight.
Excluding the "we killed a carrier" and "we took xxx station for a day" noone is actually fighting bob (and yes i dont mean a 30-50 man gang roaming gang). D2 was the only one to actually tryit...
So what bob is doing is let the coalition talk and sane ppl see that for a long time now... that is all they do... talk

You know, that is a very good point,
However it falls down, as does every other comment about Both BoB and the coalition being unable to do anything except fight forum wars..
Because..
Simply put for even the most dense of pilots..
The VAST majority of combatants in this war on both sides are not fighting on the forums, they are fighting in space.
a tiny minority of vocal forum contributors are not representative of either BoB and its Allies, or of the Coalition(s), anyone who judges the sides on the content of these forums is idiot

Well, whether or not global warming is attributable to man is in any case a scientific challenge with many potential economic and political consequences. Seeing that certain oil-companies have offered large amounts of money to scientists to publicly downplay the issue shows that.
The "heretic" accusations come when people try to use political talking points to attack scientific findings. Science isn't a democracy in the end, evidence and reason wins over authority and the status quo everytime. It's not so much that you can't have a dissenting opinion, it's just that scientists will want to hear, see and reproduce the evidence you base that opinion on. When that isn't supplied or just old and hollow arguments are used, yea, then you risk being scoffed for your opinion. Rightfully so I might add.

The Earth is getting warmer. This is a fact. It is not disputable. Some other undisputable facts...
The Planet Mars, and the moons Luna, Diemos, and Phobos, are all increasing in temperature. The moons are less affected, presumablly from the lesser, or lack, of an atmosphere. Mars matches the Earth exactly. Obviously, the martians have the same oil companies we do.
Volcanic eruptions produce many more times the ammount of Greenhouse Gases that human activity does. Some notable single erruption cycles have produced in the order of 100:1 a year.
The earth has been warming, at nearly the exact same rate a year, each and every year, since the middle of the Ice Age.
Global Warming is a snake oil swindle.

But whatever other people think of MC I think they are a pretty good mercenary alliance (shock - I must be a fanboi) and if they had of been offered a contract ($$$) they would not have taken BoB's contract ($$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$).

So lay off the accusations of 'siding', when they where clearly paid, D2 never even offerd contract so they lost out on what I believe could have been a valuable point to hurt BoB.

This is above my knowledge but a diffrent perspective would you think MC would think that there space would be left alone .. and being nice here when and if .. BoB space would be taken .. Beacuse from my personal viewpoint i see them as the same entity and i do think that many others saw that removal of BoB would be removal of MC .. But i dont make thoose decisions but that was what i thought atleast so why hire someone your going to kill anyway ..
