Seems somewhat obvious, since you don't seem to be asking for short or long term tactical goals. Bob players are after challenging things while feeling they are among the top dogs of the game.

this game is about capitalization, industrialization and colonization.. add on the fact you've got a significant number of single-minded individuals that just want to cause chaos and destruction in any organized environment and now you have to add on militarization.
seems to me bob are just playing the game.. better than most in fact. have they stepped on toes? who hasn't? it's impossible, even when you're off line.. people will make stuff up if they have to to create conflict.
nothing comes without a bit of work. what differs bob from most alliances in this game is their ability to live cohesively with this fact. so many others just want isk at the fastest pace with the least effort.
bottom line? bob does it right. everyone that stands against them seems to like to try and find shortcuts to compensate for lack of skill and dedication to the cause.. never seems to work.

Edited by: Phrixus Zephyr on 11/05/2007 13:16:10 First day and there is already a 'Look at me' thread. Yet you all fall for it. Like it matters what you think they want, in comparison with what they 'think' they want.
What they are willing to sacrifice to win a game would have been a more prudent question... but really.
Who cares?
Edit: Change my statement. There is nothing wrong with the other thread. It is ultimatly a stats thread.

Wow ok nice thread I would like to throw my 2 cents in and this is my main.
When I first heard about BOB I heard that they were the strongest alliance in EVE that forced thier rule opun thier Tenants.
From what I have seen thier methods are unorthadoxed and sometimes below the belt (choosing my words carefully)
I cant imagine what it is like to be in BOB but I can imagine with a name like Band of brothers you guys are quite close. I also take it that you guys are also quite diciplened and run alarm clock ops like MC do.
Lastly I have only met 1 BOB member and chatted with him, it only lasted a few minutes basically I dropped connection after the shipyard attack logged in the next day in my dictor and local was full of bobbits.
So I hightailed it out of there found a faction spawn on the gate and didnt stop to kill it(not that a dictor could kill a faction BS ) so me being a nice guy I convoed the last guy to speak in local, told him about the spawn. (right im going to get spanked for this by my ceo) he thaught I wasnt being serious but checked anyways and thanked me and wished me the best of luck on my way home.
I forgot his name though.
what bob want ? well i guess 0.0 domination fame and fortune...

Well BoB are that alliance that takes this game to a new level within their ranks, at least for me you are not and alliance but more of a big corp with people meeting the same goals and comiting to them.
Now most of us may not like the arrogance of some of your members or friendly alliances, as sure as hell i don't, but credit must be given you guys know your stuff.
At first i was lead to believe you guys were kinda pirates, then i read your RKK stories in your foruns, made some digging around other alliances and , at least for me, you guys are doing what most people likes to do, be it in a MMORPG or a single player game, you like to beat your oponent.
Now i like theory's and mine is that you haven't found your match, and it will be very hard to do so because of the sheer numbers either in isk and ships that you now possess, the greed of your foes that turncoat and join you, the lack of proper foes sometimes, etc, an new oponent would have to take time and numbers to build up the necessary skills and player base in order to take you on and i say a new one simply because most of the good players that could do it won't.
This last war is a perfect display of it, you guys comited, the others didn't, thing is i feel that you take this game a bit to seriously like almost a job, i believe you have fun in that, its your way, others don't and end up getting crushed, later they simply, quit, join you or leave, disband alliance and enter random smack in foruns without doing anything else of credit.
Now i really hope you don't get to conquer all 0.0, low-sec and sort, because that would make this game a weee bit boring. _______________________

BoB wants world peace! 
Seriously though, they want to win. And to achieve this goal, they have managed to recruit some of the most hardcore players of the game. Not only SP wise, but also experience wise, and most importantly: Time spent online.
Atleast, that is the impression I've got. I wonder if BoB will continue to exist, if their objective with the game truly is facing challenges. If challenges is what they want, they go around creating it in an odd way, gathering a large amount of the most dedicated players in their corps.
BoB, destroy your own alliance and create havoc all over! I bet that would be fun!

A holiday. 0/ then some time cleaning polishing skulls and medals. After this comes the disturbing part, more and more bob players will get fat, start running baths and listening to kenny G, eventually they will only want penut butter sandwiches.
so penut butter sandwiches it will be, for now a medal and bath.

This is actually probably the best thread I've read in months lol. Very interesting to hear these perspectives without most of the flame that usually accompanies these threads. I have to say, some of the ideas have amused me greatly but I liked the one with the life force energy thing, made me think a little... (cue creepy sci fi music)

People have been answering two different questions...I think...that being what does BOB the alliance want? and what do the players in BOB want?
The players want PVP action, fun fights, victories...same as the rest of us.
What does BOB the alliance want? I would bet they have staged goals, which I doubt include the conquest of all of 0.0 I suspect their goals are limited to certain regions. I know many of the people I speak to believe BOB wants all of 0.0
I just don't believe that to be the case, managing that much space is too much work. Seriously anyone in command of any alliance can tell you even controlling and organizing a few regions takes alot of time and effort. Now try to imagine controlling all of 0.0?! 
My experience with leaders of alliances has shown me that they understand that this is a game, they want their members to have fun, and they want to have fun. To manage all of 0.0 would be full-time work...which would suck balls...BOB want to control more systems than they currently control, that is for sure...but be realistic, they don't want it all...who the hell would??
YAAARRRR!!!

Do you really think that's possible, to conquer and control all of 0.0? Yes, you could possibly control the majority of 0.0, but total dominance? Hmm I just don't think so.
But what do I know, I spend most of my time langers off my face shouting at people that aren't there in a empty TS channel.

What does BOB want?
If its about winning EVE, I think its safe to say they've actually done that. Sure they don't actually control all of 0.0, but anyone with half a brain can look at the methods they've used to conquer what they have and see the writing on the wall.
They'll never stop the game, there will always be alliances that will fight them, but for all intents and purposes, BoB is the fifth empire. Most of you fight their pets, but the reality is, the core corporation leaders of BoB itself are now as ubiquitous and untouchable as a CCP employee playing a Caldari CEO or the Amarri Emperor.
Is this what they wanted? From what I understand of EVE history from second hand sources, BOB was originated as the anti-alliance. Yet here they are, on top of the game. The revolution has become an institution. I'm not above thinking that over time, as the ball was rolling and gaining momentum, that their goals weren't revisited, and this crusade across no sec evolved from a desire to show the world how it ought to be done.
Whatever they look like to the rest of us, I'm pretty sure their inner workings haven't changed much. I think what they saw in the alliances they formed to protest hasn't wormed its way into their operation. Ego, metagame. They play EVE for what it is, for what they want, and to say "BOB wants ________" as if its the sum total of their desires is really missing the point behind why so many people sign up for their cause.
What does BOB want? I don't think the real answer is going to be a simple one by a long shot.
This is my sig, there are many others just like it. With me, my sig is worthless. Without (or with even) my sig, I am worthless... |

Not to derail, but PotBS is terrible, and most likely will flop in a major way.
BoB wants PvP as do almost all the hardcore gamers in 0.0.

I don't normally post on CAOD, but this one I'll bite.
Personally, I hold little against any group, I'm sure that the people I shoot and their organisation are just like me and mine, except maybe better or worse at it.
I would assume they want total dominance, as they are in a position to achieve it (after all, would you not dream of such things?). If/when they achieve that, I'm sure that some part or other would split (would be boring otherwise), so life goes on.
In the history of EVE, alliances have come and gone, but they are still the same people, just recycling. If your alliance dies, there are plenty of others out there, so again life goes on: their is little point getting hung up about it the same as there is little point getting hung up on k:d ratios and the like.
In addition, they want fun (comes easily) and perhaps respect for creating / being a part that organisation.
I'm sure most people respect them for their accomplishments (not everything was the spawn of the devil) even if they show that as anger/jealousy. Sure the other 'issue' and 'at-all-costs' tactics lessen them (and for me, as does the fact that every time I've run across a BoB member he has been a smacktard, but I guess thats the vocal minority as in every group, and I've been unlucky ). However, the fact remains that BoB are the single most powerful group with fingers in all the puddings so to speak.
"Do not question their power, only how they choose to wield it" - I forget 
Kudos for posting with your main, this sort of topic is normally the result of alts but having it posted by a main adds more to the discussion and creates a different atmosphere to 'omg post with your main' every other post.
Just my opinion, feel free to flame ;)

What Molle wants is to completely control just not 0.0 but the whole of EVE and will use every advantage he can
As for the average BoB member well most are either bored vets or people who find it easier to join the winning team. Its easier to bask in the success of someone else then make your own way.
