Besides the rush for a huge land grab, what do you think would happen if a large alliance simply just disappeared out in Nulsec? Doesn't matter which one, just one with a hefty chunk of real estate. I'm curious as to the ramifications.
Let the musing begin.
You could just, you know, read about the multiple times it has happened before due to espionage. |

Also when someone forgets to pay sov bills. /o\
As for what happens when an alliance just up and leaves, with no one still hanging around, I can refer to when IT bailed out of Deklein from personal experience - basically, it turned into a lukewarm landgrab, lots of people coming in but no one excited about the prospect of burning through all the infrastructure in order to stake their own claim. Delve is still kind of a clusterfuck, lots of smaller alliances living there. |

Previous examples have the ones losing what they had moving to rebuild, so on and so forth. I'm talking complete and total disincorporation.
Thank you Iskawa! This does not happen because players do not just simply disappear, you cant stop players reforming an alliance either under the same name or a new one or just joining an alliance blue to the previous one. As people have said they either get disbanded and reformed or just join another one and retake the space under that alliance  Well I mean.... There was that time when people got the power turned off to their house via RL sabotage to keep them out of a war. :P I guess you could take it a step further and do something along those lines to EVERY SINGLE PLAYER in a mega alliance.
good luck planning an operation to attack the energy infrastructure of several dozen nations at several thousand points, all at once, without showing up on every terrorist watchlist on the planet. |
