1 (and only). They care about this game more than you do.
Your post actually has quite a bit of truth in it, unfortunately you kinda fell off the path of righteousness when you said we sacrifice other parts of our lives to do so. You see, whilst that may indeed be true for some, it is not the "norm". Sure, we set our alarms when we have to and work the next day with bleary eyes, much the same as people do when they go drinking on a "school night" and then go to work with a hangover.
We've been accused of having no lives, we've been accused of living in our parents basements, we've been told we take this game "too seriously" (which may indeed be true, to an outsider). But, ultimately, you're right - we put effort in to this hobby of ours and we reap the rewards of it.
And the envy.
I didn't mean anything derrogatory by it. In any hobby or passtime for which one doesn't get paid, there are always those who casually engage when the notion strikes them, and then there are the enthusiasts who make it their primary (or only) passtime. Anything that you put that much time into, whether it's an MMO, or racing mountain bikes, requires that you trade some things off in your life if you want to be "elite".
What BoB has shown over and over again is that their membership has a level of commitment to the game that is pretty tough to match and compete with, and yeah, probably de-prioritize a lot of other things in their life to have that level of commitment. Whether that's a good thing or a bad thing depends on who you ask, I guess. -----------------------------------------------

Sorry, I didn't take it as derogatory, just misunderstood part of the point you were making I think.
All in all though, as I said, not much to argue about in your post. Reikoku Diplomatic Forums

Im just waiting for the day it comes down to the Russians (AAA, RA, etc.) vs BoB. What excitement that will be.
Of course before that happends CCP had better find a way to keep a node from crashing due to a 800 vs 800 fleet engagement, or it'll be a long, boring war. x-103 Azrael Pilgrim

I don't think either side want to engage in the longest guerrilla war ever.

Corp tax at 75% and supply your members with T2 ships and T2 Fittings, thats what EVOL does and maybe thats why they get the high partisipation in their gangs and are so effective in what they do.

21. When traffic is set to high dont shoot the car tailing you the whole straight away cause you might rear end some npc cars and get passed.
22. Always greif the guy who messed up your car or killed you with grenades on the first lap since that is more rewarding than finishing 5th.

1. Whenever you need something, ask a Bob Dev, T2 BPO? No problem! 2. When in doubt of the outcome of a fight, crash the node. 3. After the node crashes, get back in 5 minutes early.

Hey Diana, you must be ecstatic over CCP's new plan to get FCs to inform them of attacks 24 hours in advance so they can "reinforce the nodes". With those MSN dev contacts you've bragged about, you'll never be caught off guard by an attack. |

So goons are you planning to attack BoB again? Then all you have to do is just tell your goon devs about it to get them to reinforce the node for you. Or are BoB devs just better then goon devs?

Considering there are more ccp employees within your own failed alliance I should think you guys will get the biggest boost, what with so many numbers failing over themselves to achieve anything, but we'll just wait and see shall we? Reikoku Diplomatic Forums

The difference is that if there are any devs in OHGOD they're not, you know, cheating with us. Like how t20 did you with you and the rest of the BoB leadership. Remember that? When BoB and t20 got caught cheating? Spawning BPOs and giving you inside information? Just checkin'
Oh, and I know beating up on shitty northerners in your latest morale-booster may have confused you a bit, but next time you're whining about a "failed alliance" it's probably not best to call the alliance that removed you from most of your space that if you want to maintain any credibility. Well, if you had any in the first place to maintain.

Cynojammers are overpowered! (Apart from when used by the NC).

Of course, T20 is the only dev / CCP employee to ever cheat in EvE. That must be it, because otherwise the great failswarm would of course announce every one that has ever done so, because they know all of them, right?
Of course you do. But hey, it never gets old, why don't you show us all the evidence of him cheating WITH us, and not as has been consistently and constantly stated, WITHOUT our knowledge.

"Your" alliance didn't achieve that, Mongo dear boy, and we've still got "our" space, or shall we take you back to the only reason we had that space in the first place?
Such revisionism really does need to have some basis in history, even just a little, otherwise it is nothing more than you and your alliance.
