the announcement here was the first i had seen of any public announcement of changes in the FA
You missed an earlier locked thread wherein an FA memo was publically announced. In this memo the action was declared a Coup by those involved.
This announcement is an announcement relating to the resolution of this Coup.
Fair enough, but i would have expected there to have been continuity in the use of langauge between announcements. Not everyone who reads the boards does/is able to read every single thread.
Therefore the point that this post would appear to be attempting to put a positive spin on the events therefore stands.
Exactly, quite simple yet some ppl just ... dont get it.

Of corse, which is why i think it is always a good thing to have a single public voice for an alliance.
Some Corps/groups i have known in the past have even gone as far as to have accounts/characters specifically for the job (something like FA Diplomat, for example) to avoid problems such as you state, and to provide points of contact for anyone who needs one.
Makes shure things like this dont happen, and helps ensure that what any one member says doesnt indicate 'policy' to those reading, rather policy/relations/announcements are only that which are indicated by the spokesperson. I am shure some corps with active members on these boards have found themselfs in a position before where a member has run away with themselfs and said something which caused problems for the corp later.

How would you, having admittedly not read what I have written have any idea as to whether I do or do not get it?
Stop Trolling. If you want to participate, at least put some token effort into it like Ridarri.

That is a fair assesment. One has to keep in mind, however, that the statements were written by two different individuals and that the second statement had little need to refer to the coup itself as it was a summary of its results more than anything else.
I think the idea that the event needed a possitive spin assumes a negative view of it. In my mind the post would have been unchanged by the inclusion of the word coup.
Thats what you think/assume/perceive etc etc etc. An average player/outsider doesn not think the same Baun. You dont need to admit that you were wrong, just stop posting :P OR you can spin it, i guess :S

Edited by: Insane Angel on 13/04/2004 01:29:56 LOL. Five pages since my last post (work).
Skimmed most of it from there to my current post (this one).
Aneu. Absolutely I am a liar. Anyone who claims not to be a liar is a liar.
As far as ship damage/losses in the 8BSs(FA) vs. 22BSs(Pirates). There were none. The only damage to any ship was probably to Stans as all of you hate him for some reason (BTW Stan I'll be in your gang anyday ). I remeber ANN S losing shields and then receiving major armor damage as she warped. My other 3 targets had also been hit by my gang and me and they had no shields. See Aneu, its not like mining. Roids dont have those little status bars that show the shields/armor/structure going down around the side of the ships. The left side is the sheilds, the first half on the right side is armor while the last half is structure. So ends lesson in PvP interface use 101.
ANN S, I give you credit. It is brave to be the first to drop in to a system with hostiles all around you. Whether by accident or deliberate I salute you.

The fight we had last night wit them... (sunday)...
Also you may want to check the current kill count, we just slaughtered one of your scorpions, and we are not pirates, we are freedom fighters fighting against the oppresion that is Xanadu and its allies.

Actually, a few cruisers uncloaked first, then i uncloaked, warped to my alt, and warped back (was only 1au and it was planned) and by the time i got back you had ran...
You didnt get Ann's shields down, nor any armour damage im afraid, checked it out and reports sudgest she was fine. We have it on fraps too if you like... im sure one of our guys will upload it someday. Cheers,

Possitive spin is not the same as not having admitted at all that it was a coup. We did admit this, whether or not it was in this thread in the initial post, and for that reason Riddari is wrong. He, having acknowledged that we have admitted this previously, has himself admitted he is wrong. That is my only point, and has been for the last several pages of this thread. You can argue yourself blue in the face about whatever spin there is or is not percieved to exist by the average player. The person who posted acknowledged as much, just citing that he percieved the omission of it in this thread as a sort of spin.

It's a game, i died. Not happy about it, but it happens. I'm just ****ed off i lagged so hard. Not the best timing on my part to come out of warp as 5+ unfriendlies are coming thru the gate. Maybe next time i'll see more than a screen of my scorp with half armor, and then a screen of a pod, then a new body.
I'm ****ed off i didn't get to shoot back at those i don't agree with. I'm not ****ed off about dying for FA and what i hold true.
*awaits the flaming*
and somehow my new clone still has a scar over his eye...You'd think they'd fix that in the regrowing process.

Lol, i think its spilled into aridia as well, with the Revol attack on a XAN mining op, followed by hit and run by us.

I can't be the only one who sees the parallels between the reformation of the NVA into the PA and the latest...events...in the FA. The claims of a split between the fighters and the miners in battle. It's giving me nostalgia...
I think I can, however, sum it up thus:
Democracy is a great thing, until it becomes inconvenient. If you are not prepared to take on the challenge of a democracy, do not join one. After a purge such as this, I cannot see how ANYONE with a straight face could call the reformed FA democratic.
Mind - I'm not saying if it's good or bad for anyone. Just that the reformed FA is NOT a democracy. And it seems the status quo on borders - closed with limited for-pay access - will continue. I never have and never will agree with that.

I to noticed the similarities between the VA/NVA/PA Story and the Current Fountain situation. Rather amusing from my POV . Even the nick of the old FA has changed, i've amptley started refering to the old FA corps as "NFA" since some of the corps are missing. I'm sure others have done like wise, as i've seen it apparent on the this and the last NFA related thread .
I wonder how long this bit will last, until it falls and reforms under a new banner, T2PA (The 2nd Pheonix Alliance) perhaps?

Kudos to Xanadu and FA.
The wheat has been seperated from the chafe in a thoroughly professional manner.
I am sure that whatever short term difficulties it causes FA will only be strengthened by this cull of dead weight...
Once again Xanadu demonstrate their complete mastery of politics and manipulation.

That is not a suprise comment coming from an Amarrian! PIE is well known for it's mistreatment of others. I would not expect any less from you Hardin. Although I beleive you misinturpret the far reaching consequences of angering so many people. It is quite obvious that more then just a few people were unhappy about this. NFA also has old enemies that've never gone away... Which will no doubt take advantage of the chaos in Fountain at the moment.
Only time will tell who had the right, and the might to make right the events that transpired .

I think that most people forget real quick and after FA has killed them all few times they will just stop attacking and find a nice little system and start mining again.
After all most of them are miners and have attention span of micro seconds when it comes to combat.
Wich was seen when the people who were kicked fought against m0o in the past, it just seemed to me that after they activated their weapons they started to think about something totally different, like the next system to mine in, and then all of a sudden their ship was gone.
Was amazes me is that this didnt happen sooner since when I was fighting in fountain most of those people were trying to mine instead of fighting us. Spawn of the Devil

Ah good morning. 11 pages and still we are open for business!
Nothing amazing happened since last night obviously except for the surprising addition of Hardin of PIE inc jumping on the Xanadu bandwagon? That came out of nowhere!
Are PIE looking for a 0.0 home all of a sudden? 
Happy battles gentlemen and ladies. For which ever banner you fly.
