Originally by: bigred monkey just to comment that not all corps that left kos were weak pvpers, some of us that have left, have done so for legitimate reasons!
That maybe but you BRM cried when ever a pvp op was called cause you were busy ratting or mining. You cried loudly, nearly as loudly as Stokar... And now you are gone and are others like you and the crying has stopped. And yet our pvp fleets are as strong as ever...
Bigred was cool leave him alone. He does suck at pvp though

Quote: theT already has the majority of its assets safe. In fact it was probably the first corporation that knew in wat danger the alliance as so they secured most of their assets.
Sorry Blaf but this time you're incorrect. I know in past events this was true, but this time theT lost a crapload of assets, mostly towers and mods, and ALOT of them in my own 2 carrier losses to AAA, as well as the freighter they killed while I was piloting it. (Hmmm maybe I should stay away from expensive ships).
And YES I told alliance members to pull out, BECAUSE of the fact that KOS's leadership had crumbled and people were still very unsure about the new leadership.
And as for Pimp Dog's comments about "wussy" corps. Well, many many times when defense fleets were called for, 10 or 12 guys tops would show up, Even when I threatened to make it mandatory. and I believe this happened for 2 reasons, #1, poor recruiting practices, and #2, alliance lost trust in leadership. I can't say I blame them for that.
There are a few reasons for KOS's fall, all of which have been discussed time and time again. I was hoping the new leadership we were forming would be able to make the changes needed to make KOS strong, but we didn't have the time.
Anyway, sensless hashing it out over and over again will get us nowhere. the KOS name is badly damaged and most members have left, and gone on to new places in Eve.
A few of us still hold out, waiting to take care of final details.
I want to wish all former KOS members good fun in Eve and hope to fly with some of them again.
On a side note to this i must point out that there was one point when things had actually improved and werent too bad. We could easily pull a 50 man defence gang without much effort and during new years when -a- started to show up we pulled much larger gangs.
Not saying kos were amazing pvpers or anything just giving credit to the guys who would step up to defend.

Originally by: Miner Maya The fall of KOS.....
There was a lot of things which was playing a big role in falling of KOS. The main reason was the lack of Leadership in last time.... Sure some peoples tried to work as leadership, but noone respected them or they made bad decisions..... So in last time was no real leadership The leadership worked in last months was so blind they dont noticed what would happend. They trusted too much to they allies(Goons and RA) what was the biggest mistake they made. They dont built any real defence, they just hoped RAGOON would hold all the enemies around. That was an extreme big fail...we saw more times what means to have RAGOONS as friend(look at Frege or DMC). Lack of FC's. KOS had some very good FC's, but not enough. in 90% of the time there was no FC around to lead the gangs and so a random team without any "head" was easy slaughtered. An important reason was the unhonorable work of IAC and -A- in the last time of KOS. -A- made lot of small gangs roaming in KOS space and i think both sides liked this fights. Than -A- wanted to take the KOS sapce and they made bigger and bigger gangs to get the pilots of KOS(which mostly fought without leader) a bit tired. If that dont worked(in this time KOS was able to get together 200+ fleets) they made a dirty trick and trapped KOS in 49- which was mostly a trap for KOS and not for BoB. They called for help and KOS was asap answering and sending pilots to the target system. The pilots was attacked even on the route to 49- by random -A- gangs and after Shrike escaped -A- was firing on KOS and KOS pilots answered for this challenge. But IAC was on the side of -A- and they attacked the KOS members together and than IAC set KOS red and made heavy attacks on C3. That was a well planned move from -A- and IAC, because most of the pilots which had fun to fight -A- knowed they have a hard time against -A-, but if IAC attacks too they have no chance and the best move to avoid a big loose is to avoid the fight and they moved out of KOS space. After this happend IAC, like a good guy moved back and left the space for -A-, which used the time where KOS was the weakest(KOS was never extreme strong :) ) and began the siege. If they would so like to fight as they like to describ himself, they would be attack KOS if he was the strongest. So the time of KOS is done, there would be just 1 little chance for KOS to survive if -A- would let them a ssmall part of space with a station and set them blue for 6-9 month to let time to be stronger, but that would never happend, because -A- alone cant fight any stronger enemy. Except some extreme good pilots they are a BoL(Band of Loosers)
are you serious..............
You cant tell by his lack of paragraphing?

KOS would have totally kicked your ass honest. TBH i was always disappointed that when the main -a- offensive started we were too screwed on the inside to really respond properly. If you compare the response to the invasion to the response around new years there is a massive difference.

I will remember it.. KOS would have totally kicked our ass.... KOS would have totally kicked my ass.... KOS would... KOS couldn't even kick MY ass... What about an alliance where i'm dunno-what-number-in-queue-for-best-PVPer-of-the-week... But i will remember. KOS would...
Jesus did people not get the sarcasm of the first sentance...
