Hi everyone!
I think it will be good for everyone - both BoBs and anti-BoB coalition to sign a non-aggression, or, at least, no-take-territory pact until CPP solves problems with server desync?
(I don't even hope that cpp will solve the immense lag in foreseeable future, so...)
For BoBs and CCP, it will help save a reputation, 'cause it is very strange that lag/desync helps BoBs a lot and spoils the game for others. For others - it'll save them from extinction = leaving the game.
?
Your turn.

Not gonna happen. Right now all the major alliances* are probably trying to find ways of exploiting it.

The problem is with a very strange "coincidences" in 46dp, 6t3 and 77se-8. Where GMs did nothing. One side was disconnected (de-sync'ed? frozen?) and other side was ok and slaughtered the other side.

Edited by: Estel Arador on 28/06/2007 15:13:50 I'm sceptical of supposed server/client issues which habitually affect one side only.
Are you sure you're not exaggerating the effect it has on one side or playing down the effect it has on the other side?

Sorry, Lag/Desync/Computer Meltdown/Server Issues effect everyone. It is very strange that only our enemies blame their losses on it. I can tell you right now how many ships I have lost due to Lag/Desync/Computer Meltdown/Server Issues. But I wont, because I would rather laugh at it and get back in a new ship. But I will give you a clue. The percentage of my losses since the war began due to lag/desync etc starts with a 1, ends with a 0 and has a zero inbetween.
In a battle, expect the effect of terrain and weather. Should everyone stop and have a cup of tea just because there was a bit of rain? Did the other side stop to take a break during lagfests of J1V1?

Edited by: Laah T''Sin on 28/06/2007 15:30:42 Sorry but if you really think CCP or some CCP-affiliate would intentionally crash a node or cause lag for a single group of players then i really wonder what pills you take in the morning... i also want some!
No but seriously... do you really think that CCP built in a new feature for the GMs so they can de-sync players by pressing a button to support an alliance?? I mean LOL... just LOL! 
Edit: SO this post ins't purly OT: I think the idea of a temporary NAP is good tbh. I mean currently it's not a question of skill or even a question of how good the FCs are.. it's simply a game of chance... if you de-sync then you'll die and if not then you may be able to kill a few hostiles.. not exactly a wonderful situation. The problem about your idea is that no alliance will ever agree to those terms... if a target of opportunity presents itself then i doubt anyone will let it pass.. NAP or no. Just think of the amount of espionage that could be done as soon as all the important systems are no longer protected.

Just be aware that the lag, conenction losses etc.. are not political inclined. but theyare sure not fair. They behave differently when you are beign jumped by, you are jumping in, you are warping in, you are jum bridging or beign jump bridged etc...
And these are things that must be solved, avoid the chances of one side forcing a type of engagement that they know will cause more lag to enemy than to themselves (that is for both sides)
If brute force doesn't solve your problem... you are not using enough |

For one thing, if there is a new 'Tactic-That-Is-Not-Yet-An-Exploit', then I wanna use it against Bob until it is an Exploit.
For another, we're not gonna stop fighting while Bob is counting down towards Soverignty.

That's a difficult thing for many people to accept.... To do that, their fragile ego would have to accept that others are better than they....
"NO... THIS CANNOT BE!!! TO THE FORUM!!!" ...is the usual reaction instead....

....seriously?
You think that this desync issue helps BoB while it hurts everyone else?
Do you honestly think that the BoB pilots were in sync when the titan went down a week ago? Don't get me wrong, I'm not blaming the lose on desync. The fleet that RAGoon jumped in would have accomplished their task whether we were in sync or not. But the fact of the matter remains...everything that we saw on our screen that night happened 2-3 minutes in the past. _______

Then post with your main otherwise you are automatically assumed to be a troll alt. Also if you want to be fair, post factual information and not opinions of why you fail. --

It's indeed a bit odd to use my NOS to probe if I'm in blaster range because my overview refuses to tell me how far I'm away from my victim. But as long as our enemies yell and cry on their TS instead of giving and following orders I can not see why I should not slaughter them.
Ohh and all those nice insults in local I have to read pretty much every day will not raise sympathies for my enemies either.

Edited by: Tzrailasa on 28/06/2007 15:58:42 Are things really going that bad that you need to NAP?? 
FACT: RA/pets has lag/desyncs/disconnects/etc. FACT: BoB/friends has lag/desyncs/disconnects/etc.
The only difference is that only one of the two parties mentioned above whine about it....
If you have bug issues, submit a bloody detailed bug report to help CCP solve the problem. Whining endlessly on the forum doesn't help anything...

as an outside observer who isn't involving himself in eve pvp yet, I have to say that this is the typical response in an mmo of a side that has some unfair advantage. you aren't helping your cause at all by posting things like this.
as a veteran of many mmos and MANY instances of overpoweredness/exploit/etc, the group with the advantage always claim some mythical skill/tactic/whatever as if they are better players than the others. it is something I have seen time and time again.
this may not be the case here, but i wish to honestly let you know that posts like this will not help your cause at all. you are exhibiting the classic behaviour of the over-advantaged in a game trying to attribute it to some magical skill.
i hate to break it to you bub (bob?), but given a large group of players in a game, in comparison of another large group of players, skill levels are going to be equal.
if you really think you are just better than others, you are deluding yourself.
ok, 3rd party commentary off.

Can't you come up with something better? This is getting very boring this always 'WE ARE BETTER' mantra. You are not better, where were you better when you lost the titan? Where were you better when you just now lost the stations to goons? Your mantra is complete nonsense.
There are reports all over Eve of desyncs. From every party. Goons, TCF, BoB (yes also them, the honest ones agree), Razor in the north, Tri etc. Not only in large fleet engagement but also in small gangs of 20 people.
SOMETHING serious got broken with Rev2, that becomes more and more obvious. It is NOT LAG, it is desync - something completely different which happened in the past only in extreme rare situations. Now it happens all the time.
To the op: I doubt that a standoff would work, especially not with the new sov system. Time is running for one side now, they can setup cyno jammers when the time is up. The other side surely doesn't want this. So...fighting and more fighting.

You are exhibiting all the classic signs of a underachiever, a person that always wanted to be the guy that was just that bit better then himself. You need to reassure the people on the forum you have alot of experience with these things, because with no factual information what so ever you won't score any points with anyone.

WOW. This is highly disgusting and pathetic.
I lost a ship last night in 9-9. Our 95 man fleet got jumped in on by a 95 man BoB fleet and my screen froze. I had to log out, and I knew that when I logged back in I would be in a pod. Oh, well. No biggie.
But was it BoB's fault? No. WE JUST HAD A MAJOR PATCH A WEEK AGO. There are STILL issues to be worked out. I have made a personal descision to not participate in HUGE fleet battles until CCP sorts this out. Its not that I lost a ship, I fly what I expect to lose. Its that I didnt even get to participate or fire ONE missile, and that sucks. I LOVE big battles like that, and the lag ruined it for me.
I WHOLE HEARTEDLY DISAGREE that this is some CCP/BoB conspiracy/exploit, and the suggestion of such IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS. I am sick and freakin tired of people like Van Burren, whoever you are, perpetuating this CRAP on these forums. I dont think you are a Goon Alt or a BoB Alt, I think you are someone totally unrelated to the situation trying to play everyone like a marionette. Go stick your head in an oven, you *****.

Once you get involved in eve pvp, you will understand how wrong you are.
Lets say 10 fully t2 fitted hacs take on 10 t1 cheapist fitted cruisers. How many HAC's will die? Probebly not even 1, since they lack the discipline to even focus fire on one target to break its tank. Now if the cruiser pilots were to start yelling "Aimbot, H4x, I wiz l4gged" then that is the excuse, not the reason they lost. The reason they lost is that they were not setup correctly for the job at hand.
Another example. I took on a raven in my curse. I have a scrambler on him and I am shooting him away. I hear all maner of accusations as to why his explosive torps do almost no damage to my ship, and that I was hacking. Obviously he never knew that I shiled tank my curse's and shield tanked curses usually have around 90%+ explosive resit due to their fitouts. He then had the good grace to warp out, so fitting a stab is now the flavor of the raven ratter again. Obviously the stab nerf is not enough.
But thats what we face day in day out - people who have not got a clue accusing everyone else of using aimbots. We win battles because we are better - not because of h4x. That is the point Lickity is making. --

If you go in and dont expect to lose a ship to lag, then you probably shouldnt be in the battle in the first place.
