The 'ignore them and they will go away' attitude changed when it was discovered that a number of Goon members had been making fun of the real life death of another EVE player. This incident was widely condemned by the majority of the EVE community but it particularly incensed the BoB
membership. Coincidentally this incident happened around the time Goons took their first tentative steps in 0.0.

On this particular story, and with a better knowledge of the Goon spirit than when it was flamed everywhere, what can I say is : what the ****.

This story again ? One post decided the fate of this war ? I think it's not true.

I am not fighting for one post.

If I mock someone like "oh your mama died, cool because you suck" today, I'll be probably expelled from my alliance, and be podkilled in cycles until I quit the game. But my alliance wouldn't start a war vs an alliance for this.

Bob fight us for, at first, a view of the game that RSF don't have.
We fight for another view.

RL issues have nothing to do about it. And if I told somebody died in my corp to any Goon, they'll be the first to flame it. That is their spirit. My alliance is allied with iconoclasts. My alliance point of vue is that they don't care.

My personal motivation is fighting with the original guys vs the uncreative-conservative people. I like creativity. Too much is a flaw. But I personally don't care this flaw. The conservative mind, to me, is a greater flaw than the "OMG I'm Alice in Wonderland" flaw because Eve is a game. I want each day to be full of surprises.

This "omg this guys died truck" bull**** is the only excuse of a war Bob have against Goons.

Some people would say too late in the Coalition. I'd say too bad you've though of nothing else.

I continue to read the thread now :)

The M.Pire turning point and the rift with MC also came with the realization that BOB can't possibly win. Now they are just living on borrowed time while the coalitions and other former friends jockey for control over strategy and the disposal of their space.

Speculation has moved on, to whether the BOB plan to cut its losses and static assets, and go mobile will keep the resulting smaller 700/800 man PvP alliance together, and how many of their 23 stations need to be succesfully sieged before they run.

This is fairly accurate except for the stuff Mittani pointed out. Good read.
