Is there a logical reason why whole alliances aren't also allowed to join FW ?
If you allow individual pilots and whole corps to join, why not alliances too ?
There is a logical reason to bring alliance wars within FW? The possibility to bring Corporate wars can be bad enough.
As someone suggested: The alliance of intellectual challenged is composed by Corp A, B, C and D. They join the Caldari side, but Corp B is totally Gallente and they go with the gallente on a individual basis, still staying in the alliance, Corp C is Amarr and they join the Amarr militia, corp D join Minmatar instead.
Server ha a seizure trying to comprehend the standings.
So it is hard to see how it would be possible to join on a individual or corporation basis while stayng in a alliance.

Venkul Mul, I meant the CEO of the alliance executor corp would "join" the ENTIRE alliance to a SINGLE militia, if the ALLIANCE standings are high enough with that empire to join in.
The same way a corp joins : you can't have half the corp join Caldari, the rest Gallente or Amarr... it's whole corp for one single militia.
Now, what's the problem with allowing the same, but for entire alliances ?
P.S. Just so we have no misunderstandings... the way I read it, in order to join individually, you have to QUIT your corp first to join the militia... if the corp joins, all corp members are automatically affiliated with the militia (and you have to quit the alliance to join the militia as a corp)... the next logical step would be to allow alliances as a whole to join, so that all corps and each and every member of those corps are alligned with the same militia.

if you were listening into the Live Dev Blog, the reason that was given for not allowing alliances to join in was so that that element of gameplay wasn't affect as much, and that they didn't want alliance wide co-ordination taking park in the Faction Warfare zones (I'm struggling not to refer to them as arenas, haha...)
Or something along those lines anyway.

That would be all we need.
Goonswarm join up and promptly make FW a complete waste of time for everyone involved.
I really hope that doesn't happen.

given their desire to ruin the game for everyone else expect hundreds of goons to sign up. That said there are so many players that havent been in ( still recon CCP should put all macro miners and gold farmers perma into FW) just to ruin the accounts but not ban em ( give us some targets) but dont allow em to escape farmers will eventually abandon the accounts end outcome is the same

Hmmz... myeah, makes SOME kind of sense, but then again... oh well... not too convinced.
And, you know the drill... if goons could fight in T1 friggies at the very start a long time ago... what's stopping them from creating one fresh alt each and forming a Goon FWarfare militia corp from scratch ? The sheer numbers they could bring in without much effort should be sufficient to cause a lagstorm severe enough to make everybody else but them leave the systems on that node... then take over objectives effortlessly.
I guess we'll have to wait until the actual test to see.
No, scratch that... until somebody decides to do it like that on TQ after EA/FW hits.

Devs don't want the coalition NAP train extending to NPCs i don't think.
