What I find strange on these forums is that D2, IRON, RZR, RA, GOON & CO refer to themselves as the coalition while the Xelas, Coreli and LV guys refer to themselves as BOB.
Coalition statement: "We killed the POS".
BOB&pets statement: "BOB killed lots of capital ships".
Grow a backbone please.
Not pets right?

Is funny to see BoB and BoB pets complaining about meta gaming.
From my point of view, I see no problem in getting your 4ss kicked by a force twice your size. It's not a blob, it's their fleet. I think we all remember the EC lock down, so BoB pets should whining.
I'm sure that with 200 capitals (half of the total number of the defending fleet) the coalition, in proper gaming condition would have had no problem in killing the pos + killing the enemy fleet or jumping out.
I think that everybody agrees that with 200 capitals on the field tactics don't matter that much as capitals don't really care about doomsdays.
While I tend to side with the coalition in my statements (partially because of the GM incidents), I'm sure that in a proper gaming environment the coalition losses would have been halved in the worst scenario and the defending team would have lost more than the POS on the battlefield.
Overall seems that the coalition achieved it's objective. I don't know about BoB as they haven't made any statement on this, altho I would agree that they had more fun in this battle than the other side, and in the end all is about having fun.

How is the feeling the coaltion is able to take a POS down and you are not able to do anything against it?
Killing all those caps was not doing anything against it?
What price to take a whole system from them? Not to smack you but please...accept that both sides are at least on equal footing. The only winner here was the lag.
Killing enemy ships is not an objective in a war.
You kill enemy ships for fun. The objective is to win the war and capital assembly POS killing is surely a step in winning the war.
BoB had fun / the coalition achieved their stated goal.

I've about reached my limit reading stupid threads like this one.
Let me spell it out for you.
I'm in Lotka Volterra. Ticker is LV. I am NOT BoB. I DON'T work for BoB. I'm NOT BoB's pet. I do what want, when I want, short of fulfilling the orders and requests of my CEO and those of LV Management.
Read this carefully: I don't refer to my self as BoB.
Do yourself a favor. Try putting your brain in gear before you set your mouth into four wheel drive.
Backbone? There's plenty of backbone here.
Anyone with more questions? Please feel free to convo me at your convenience.
I just said what I noticed on the forums.
MC might have the right to say BoB killed a lot of caps as they are hired by them but the other alliances involved on BoB's side ...
BoB allies clearly act as pets. Coalition members act like proper allies and that starts by refering to themselvs as 'we', not D2,RA,IRON,RZR.
'I was involved in the fight on BoB's side and BoB killed a lot of ships.'
vs
'I was involved in the fight on the coalition side and we killed a lot of ships.'

A much more interesting question is: how can an allianes like D2 work with Goon and RA? 
Politics have nothing to do with personal grudges. At least Goons, RA, D2 and RZR aren't tagged as backstabber by the rest of the universe.
Anybody remember the easter egg hunt last year? How can FIX be BoB's allies?
Anybody remember the EC episode? Who can Axiom be on BoB's side now?
Your logic doesn't stand up mate.

Post with your main.
What makes you think that 'Mss Alt' is not my main.
Originally by: Noluck Ned
Anyway my response was to the blatant flamebait/smack/untrue statement about "Not being able to do anything about it" I say a large scale cap ship loss is certainly not nothing.
It would have taken an act of God to save the POS from that many attacking dreads. When I set out last night I did have a small seed of hope, but the pragmatist in me already knew it was a lost cause. After that I was simply speculating on the amount of enemy capitals that would go down and may I say it exceeded my wildest expectations.
Well done to all involved.
This brings memories from Stacraft games. The winner "I won the game."; the looser "yeah but I managed to nuke all of your drones in the last 30 seconds of the game, I wouldn't call that nothing."
I don't think these days anybody is stupid enough to bring things he can't afford to lose in a fight.

The flip side of the coin is that the "we," (on the LV side of the fence) uopn request from our superiors, respond to offer the support to BoB as we are directed to do so.
Congratulations BoB. Well done.
Clearly a master-slave relationship. And I don't think that LV are the masters.

LV guys, you lost your home region to the coalition.
They lost a couple of ships to BoB&pets.
Get over it. Stop being frustrated.
I didn't say BoB didn't do a great job on killing capitals, but EvE is not rl. They didn't kill 50 carriers that need years to produce and 50 of the top generals. Those guys can come tomorrow in the same ships.

As my last post on this degrading thread.
The thing is that the coalition managed to do something that nobody did before.
They killed a TITAN.
And that without using meta gaming or crashing the node.
I sincerely don't think that anybody is stupid enough to think that the coalition would send it's capitals in with no support to an almost sure death without knowing for sure that was a titan cooking in there. I'm sure you guys realize that not only BoB has spies.
Mss Alt out
