Okay I really just have to expose this tactic which, I admit, is 100% legitimate in terms of being within the game mechanics, but gets a Big, Fat LOL Grow Some Nads! in my book.
So for the past 2 months or so, up until about 2 weeks ago, we (The Pirate Syndicate) had been wreaking havoc on UNICORN forces. Our kill ratio was about 10 to 1. Haa, we even were able to take down 2 or 3 battleships with only a couple frigs. Anyway, then, as is expected, they smartened up and stopped feeding us straggling noobs in battleships.
UNICORN then moved their entire industrial fleet out of 0.0 and back into empire, or somewhere. Everlasting Vendetta went from 244 members down to a record low of 166. Some of their top pvpers (Synapse, Blue Velvet, etc.) left to join Evolution. Recently a new splinter corp was created called Equilibrium, people who we have been fighting down in the Vale for the past couple months.
So they wizen up. This is expected, you can only lose so many ships, get your head stomped on so many times, before you smarten up and learn to punch back. So the past 2 weeks have been much more of an even brawl, some losses on their side, some losses on ours. Very recently (the past week or so), what is left of UNICORN (the non-Millennium people - MLM stay hidden up at JZV) moved down to FDZ4-A and we have been having fun watching each other from safespots (UNICORN won't fight unless they have about 2 to 1 odds in their favor - this is around the point we decide that it isn't worth losing ships to them if they want to be wusses).
 Which brings us to tonight. Tonight's affair with UNICORN alliance was possibly the lamest, most cowardly thing I have EVER seen. What they resorted to was definitely the lamest thing, surpassing anything the NVA or PA or FU or any other force I've fought against has EVER done.
So we are sitting outside the NPC society of conscious thought moon six station in FDZ4-A. We have about 8 battleships and a couple frigs. Once again we are waiting for AGES (literally hours) for these guys to scout us from their 300km bookmarks. Lets not forget to mention that they outnumber us - they've got about 12 battleships, outnumbering us by at least 1.5 to 1 which is fleet standard (just like their 4 warp core stabilizers and 300km range). LOL.
Back to tonight. After killing Penance about 50 times (their disposable bioslag clone), they finally decide to warp in. They had about 12 battleships. Then comes the kicker! EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM had sensor dampeners fitted to their ship! WHAT FUN! None of us could target - literally every single battleship in their formation was running dampeners and a few had target jammers.
So we're all basically asking ourselves what the hell are we supposed to do against this? So we start heading away from their fleet and we basically get to stare at each other while they waste ammo against us. The best part was that they had 5 or 6 frigates that wouldn't come near us! If their frig pilots grew some testes they might have scored a couple kills, but they never came within 70km, the few times they did soon as u squint in their direction they warp off.
Anyway the situation ended with them warping away and us warping to safespot, frustrated, most of us logging. No capital ship kills for either side. I have never in my Eve career (about a year, a month, and a bit) seen something as cowardly as this lame little tactic they pulled on us. It would be one thing if they had an inferior force and pulled something like this, it is quite another when they significantly outnumber us and resort to this kind of lameness.
The crux of it is that if they will find themselves safespotted or camping forever without a fight. Honestly I am not interested in fighting a foe in a straight-up fleet battle if they are gonna "exploit" overpowered modules like this. Sensor dampeners, I am sure everyone agrees, are way overpowered and most people aren't lame enough to pull the kind of crap we saw tonight.
UNICORN folks, if you are wondering, we aren't going anywhere. Our guys (former M3G4, BioMass, Paladins, etc.) have made our home in the Vale of the Silent and Geminate since we started Eve last summer and many from beta. We aren't leaving anytime soon. We all love a good fleet engagement but if you are gonna pull this kind of lameness you won't get them from us - we will simply hang out and prevent you from doing anything constructive.
You can camp your safespots and stations but you won't get a fight out of me and I am sure most of our guys feel the same way, if you resort to these kind of ridiculous tactics. UNICORN, you guys really have sunk to the lowest levels of cowardice I've ever seen.

Cassiopia and Sochin u guys are the ones trolling I hope they discipline you. If you don't have anything constructive to add please don't post. This is a totally cowardly tactics they used tonight and it is 100% legit to have a discussion about it. So please go find a hole to bury yourself in.

Your distortion of the truth, prior to the fight amazes me.
Regarding the fight, while I wasn't there, we were receiving word that you outnumbered them for the majority of the night.
and......well, my ***** is larger than yours.
Rumors of my clones death are greatly exaggerated. But I am still INACTIVE

Erdric, why don't you come out of empire space and see how things are done in 0.0 before commenting where your comments aren't appreciated, deserved, or legitimate. For your info they warped out first, and also for your info, it's either go to safespot and log or log in the station which is a no-no in 0.0.
So how about you pull out your UNICORN main and put away the alt poster and explain what you morons were thinking tonight?
