Congrats to Goonswarm if this is legit and it seems to be. I seem to get snowbound at work on the best days it seems.
However that still leaves -A- and its allies as well as the former BoB Bloc alliances. A Major Victory but the war might not be over yet.
I wonder what BoB will reform as, Sons of Bob (SOB), might have a nice ring.

yeah we just downed the jammer in hed vOv
no big deal, disband bob, nuke hed~~
I don't think they'll heroicly defend bob persay but just pointing out that they are still fighting far as I know but I'm snowed in at work and can't get in game :(, maybe in a few hours.
In a way its probably a good thing for EVE that BoB has finally died. With the big expansion in a few weeks, who knows what the future has, a brave new world perhaps has been born :).

Originally by: Jesse Jamess so would this be an end to the "MAX campaign" ?
I'd say the Max campaign turned out very differently than Molle ever envisioned....

Originally by: Pimparella it will be very interesting to see how CCP reacts on that. to disband and wipe a whole alliance out of their space on this way is more an exploit than anything else. this will affect a large number of players and it will define how the ppl will see the game.
freedom is good. but borderless freedom will bring you back to the stoneage.
It is within the mechanics of the game though. CCP can't really afford the PR hit to change the mechanics and save BoB with the box set hitting stores in march. To many have been disbanded by failing to pay fees, spies etc in the past. What you might see would be a change in mechanics in the future where it takes a vote rather than one click.
I have no doubt that the various BoB corps will reform into a new alliance. Whether they all go along can't say, but I doubt its the end of them.

CCP can afford the PR hit. Since their acquisition of Whitewolf and their supposed expansion into tabletop gaming and the World of Darkness slated as their next MMO, CCP could decide to take the PR hit in regards to EVE and simply favor their new development over their first child. I doubt CCP would close EVE over mass quittings, but to be honest, EVE is relatively obscure in the MMO market since SoE puts out MMOs like a triple-kunted hooker and WoW has every 5 year old wondering what "****ed my pants" means.
I hate to say it, but as far as games go, the 50-100 thousand players of EVE can be considered a somewhat expendable body of people.
The quality of your opinions is far outweighed by the quantity of your money, as far as corporations are concerned.
SOE once thought they could take a hit on SWG and it didn't matter......
They have yet to launch a successful MMO since the NGE to SWG from Nov 2005.
Trust me if CCP bails out BoB in this case it would be no different and WoD would never succeed. |

"Our goal is to control all of EVE," SirMolle told The New York Times. "It's totally impossible to claim all of EVE physically. But it's possible to control the people. It's possible to control the alliances, be it by economic means or fighting means or political means. That was the goal and that is the goal."
Welp. 
Can't wait for the followup article, you guys should contact the writer who wrote that article...

Originally by: Private Piyal Haha, Bob just got bent over and hard! So is the game over now? 
Difficult to say, always in motion the future is. A new beginning it is.

Originally by: Jebidus Skari Truly epic..but im sure CCP because its bob will reinstate the name to its owners - not sure about sov tho..epic fail if they really did forget the bill. After lots of years playing strange not to see Bob splattered all over the map
You didn't read the thread did you?
It was not a bill issue.
A director in the executor corp defected.
During defection he claimed all assets he could. Claimed all isk he could. Removed roles from as many as he could. Kicked folks who had no roles previously. Dissolved the executor corp which in turn dissolved BoB.

Originally by: ghost437 Am i going to get flamed for pointing out that the account was used without permission due to haargoth being away at basic? So basically mittani found out that he could log into the guys account I assume probably shared his log in details in a PM on the forum like a bright newbie, posed as haargoth in IRC ( if it was a real spy he would have just told him the leadership password rather than mittani pretending to be haargoth to get it ) to get the leadership forum password.
So really there is high likelihood the alliance will be returned to bob, assets returned and **** replaced ( not sov levels as afaik they never replace those.
But good effort mittens :)
Be hard to do that since Haargoth was also on bob high command irc chat at the same time as well as all appropriate chats in game from reports.
I'm sure CCP is investigating to make sure. For now it looks legit though.
