tbh, i hope bob take over a large part of eve, would be great fun.
imagine how many bored pilots with no one to fight, banding together for internal sabotage etc. thats what id spend my time doing, and i expect most self respecting pirates will do as well.
so bring on the large iron fist of bob, i will merely slap it with my leather glove and spit on their shoe,
such blaggardom will not be tolerated!

The day BOB takes over all 0.0 will be a fun day indeed. Many of my buddies ingame have started small corps and are creating alliances waiting for the day BOB gets so big that an attack on all sides will create mayhem and disorder in their ranks....of course looking at it from a different perspective it may of course take a few more years.... Man I cant wait to get back in the game.....8 months is a long time to not be able to play EvE and my clicky finger is itching to start firing some pew pew in 0.0. -----------------------------------------------

I think BoB are awesome, tbh. They are organized, motivated, and so far, successful. They've held their alliance together, despite predictable infighting, which is an important test. Whether or not they can take all of 0.0 is debatable, but only time will really tell. Even if they don't, they can still be proud that they impacted the ingame lives of many people.
I'm not gonna be a ******* BoB pet though, I'll tell you that for nothing. And I might have a Something Awful forums account, but I'll never be in Goonswarm either.
It makes for great vicarious drama, however, and I'll cheer for BoB until I don't. And we'll continue to kill the occasional pet when we can.

It is impossible for 1 entity to take over all 0.0 space. The number and diversity of eve players makes it that way. As soon as waters calm a bit, a so called pet will rise against the master or the master will no longer accept peace and start killing some more. It's just the way it is.
Oh.. and I win eve :) So donate me isk and then move along, no paper signing, no nothing.

Originally by: Krysta Gemme As a new player of Eve, the only thing that upsets me is that BoB is in the position they were at thanks to CCP and solely thanks to CCP.
They cheated, they got an unfair edge and were allowed to keep it. They would not be the force they are without it.
Arguments can be made all day against this, but nobody will believe them, or should. As far as I am concerned, BoB is a manufactured entity created by CCP for the simple purpose of having a megaalliance to rule the galaxy.
It's sad they couldn't have left the players do it themselves. I don't see any force being able to topple them, lest CCP help another alliance to cheat and catch up.
LOL! Wait .. this WAS sarcasm right?

I would love to see BOB take over 0.0, all of it I mean... I am sure if they did, a huge uber-neaf would suddenly appear just like it did for the Privateers.
I personally don't see any alliance ever being able to control all of 0.0, but
I'm happy enough in low sec pew-pewing people in the face.

I was about to abandon this thread since it degenerated to BoB fanboi/haters discussion forum what we will and wont be able to do. But since you made this nice post, that predicted the fact that we will conquer all 0.0, and BOB (alliance) will be nerfed, and had the intelligence to put Privateers in the same sentence, I had to reply.
First: How in the name of god, can you compare a alliance which griefs in empire, all noobs/alliance noobs/noob alliances/noob corps to Band of Brothers?? (The alliance which I am talking here is Privateers, who "exploited" warfee mechanic of the game, and the mechanic was changed so that it couldnt be exploited anymore)
Second: How in the name of god do you think they would be able to nerf something that is just as any other alliance in game, without actually nerfing everysingle alliance in game in the process.
Third: If they would do a nerf that nerfs BoB in particular, how do you think that would be done, since I cannot see a 1 way to do it, so that it would only affect Band of Brothers.
Just my 10Ścents.

If bob takes over all of eve it will quickly fall apart when they suddenly discovery they have no more war targets.
Problems like this solve themselves eventually.

I'm not sure if you mistook my post for more than it was meant to be.
There was no irony in my post... I would like to see BoB completely over run 0.0 I would.
And my Privateer compliant was actually a jab at CCP not BoB, or you... I am sorry if you think it is, I just meant that when ever a player group is gaining an advantage or having fun doing what they do, CCP goes neuf-tastic and aligns with all the screaming players and caves.
It was a throw away statement, I would carm down if I where you, but think of it this way if BoB did have control over a large percentage of 0.0 (I am talking 80-90% f regions), would CCP be happy if it was effecting the game mechanics / player experience.

I could not pass this up. The minute you cause CCP to loose subscriptions and cost it money is the minute they will think of a way to nerf you. If you cause em enough trouble they will place you in the trash just like they did the Privateers.

Edited by: Belenkas on 22/06/2007 11:18:56 If people around would have much alive brain cells... it is obvious that CCP earns money from this game. Why in the god's sake would you create a game and then win it yourself, what would essentially mean no more money coming towards you? That said, there were some facts about certain DEVs helping BoB. It happens, you can't control every employee of yours. It was taken care of, measures taken to avoid it in the future. So what if some DEVs play the game? When they play it, they can test it first-hand. So what that they joined one alliance, although I really doubt there are no DEVs playing in other alliances, just rules of conduct doesn't allow to tell about it.
Facts are that the more people play this game, the better it is for the DEVs and their families. Thus they will do everything, I mean EVERYTHING, possible to increase the happiness of players playing the game, so that the players recommend the game to their friends, they to their friends and it continues. That means... they will NEVER allow BoB to 'Win' the game. Especially after China's server lessons. There will come some nerf, maybe it will touch all alliances, maybe only the largest holding alliances, but something will happen that will prevent BoB, or anyone else for that matter, from ruining everyone's gameplay and cause large money losses to CCP.
I have played game(luckily round based, where game resets at intervals) where a group of us would just dominate eventually. After complete domination, of course, there were people who broke off our group, but the 'core' members of organisation who made it all happen stayed together and of course slaughtered any opposition, even if it was equal in numbers, but much worse in organization and tactical intelligence. In the end, noone even tried to resist and everyone(including us) started begging for early round end and reset. What I want to say with this, the talks about some pets uprising and so on... It's is just impossible if the core of BoB, the guys who made this all, and the actual number I bet is way below 50, not the 2k+ members of BoB, stays together, they will face all the uprisings and come over it. Unless some serious stuff happens inside the 'core', I really doubt the well-oiled machine of BoB can collapse. Thus they will receive the famous nerfbat to their gameplay, preventing them from conquering the game.
On the other hand, it would be very much fun for all the role players around EVE to stand on empires' side(yeah they should unite then) to fight the mighty GBC attacking the empires from all sides Wonder if empires could really resist the 50 titan force instapopping all the capitals How about GBC vs Jove war? 
P.S. I am not an alt of somebody who has 'CCP' in front of their name :)

Well, I see one legitime way to "nerf" alliances such as BoB, however, its a feature, not a nerf, and a logical one.
The Empires grows weary and afraid of the power of the BoB alliance (criteria for this to happen == number of alliance systems owned in 0.0 space, and applies to all alliances that meets the criteria) and thus goes to war against it.
It means, npc fleets engaging BoB targets, no access to high-sec space in order to force/put some pressure on alliances of significant sizes.
It means, that any alliance that steps over a certain boundary, the Empires will react due to fear. This makes it difficultier for alliances such as BoB to conquer all 0.0 space without a propher fight, HOWEVER, it doesnt mean it shouldnt be possible to conquer all, just harder.
Its an extra stick in the wheel, but not forced and limited borders of alliance growth.
Other gameelements that support the spawn of internal conflicts, or guerilla warfare tactics could also be an option to put pressure on almighty alliances, to add more flavours to the gameplay. Want to own it all BoB? it should be some rocks and downhills towards that progress in terms of supportive game elements.

Quote: What is this game going to be like when BOB take over?
A long time ago in a Galaxy far, far away....
Revelations 4
A NEW HOPE
It is a time of civil war. Rebel spaceships, striking from 1.0 space, have won their first victory against the evil Galactic Empire of Bob.
During the battle, rebel spies managed to steal the origional blueprints to the Empire's strongest weapon, the DEATH STAR, an 2nd generation Titan with enough firepower to destroy an Avatar.
Pursued by the Empire's sinister Mercenary Coalition, the Sisters of Eve race home aboard their starship, custodians of the secret plans that can save the people of EVE and restore freedom to the galaxy....

In all seriousness, BoB has made so many enemies between the cheating (oh, THOSE blueprints), arrogance, and naked agression that they'll have plenty of enemies for years to come.
I'm not worried about them talking all of lowsec space and besides; all space operas need an evil empire anyways.

Noticed there`s alot of talk going on about BoB and Goonswarm.
While many find them annoying apparantly; I like the strive between the two. Makes sure there`s always something interesting to see/happen.
That said; imagine of one or both would suddenly vanish. True taking over certain sectors would suddenly be easier; and less worry about the superalliances. But wouldn`t that take away a bit of the game & fun?
And yes; I`m pretty new; just an observation I made.

With the changes of Revelations, one can imagine that, once BoB takes over 0.0, they'll charge 0.1+ corps to "allow" them to mine in 0.0 space. Soon, OHGOD and others will be "leasing" these systems to stay alive. If you've ever played Ryzom, just think of BoB as the Kami and the Karavan spliced into a single, giant, heaping Deus Ex Machina for 0.0 space.
Yay.
