Originally by: Molly Flanders I agree - mechanics should be changed.
It is not like any country disappear if you shoot its president down.
CCP definitely did a botched job of this one.
Do people really think of this issue like this?
Not trying to be too mean here, but did the corporations, the Posses, the members, and the assets (other than the ones that were stolen from corporate hangers and such) dissapear when BoB disbanded? No. They are all still there, but have no governing alliance to keep them organized.
Think of it more IRL as a country's government failing. Garuntee you if a country's government fails theres gonna be utter chaos in that country. Thats what BoB faces now, utter chaos untill they get it resolved (IF they get it resolved). |

Originally by: milllo Building a corporation and alliance takes years of hard work by many people. If the disbandment of Bob by one person stands then every corporation and alliance has to fear the same fate.
Why then should anyone spend the time and effort to build large organizations?
Something has to be changed to prevent this in the future. A simple fix would be requiring a week countdown for corporation disbandment and month countdown for alliance. It is not rocket science...
Or maybe something like an executor corp so not every director can disband an alliance, maybe put in roles so that only certain people can do certain things. Oh wait, they have that. Band of Brothers put their trust in the wrong person, it is not CCP's fault, it is Band of Brother's fault. The only person who should have full director status in the executor corp is the alliance leader. Simple, like you said, "not rocket science". This is BoB's fault, not ccp, not goons, Band of Brothers.

Ahhh, proud proud little corp alliance goes down the hole.
Let me quote CCP's FAQ:
Originally by: CCP
1.11 How does the massively multiplayer aspect of the EVE affect game play?
The basic role-playing and space simulation aspects of EVE are really just the tip of the iceberg. When players band together to form factions and alliances, the game progresses to a more grand-scale strategic level. Political intrigue, corporate espionage and the very essence of Darwinism bring dimension and depth to the game as the struggle for fame and fortune ebbs and flows with each new day in EVE.
I know espionage is a tough word for some of you, as we all know french best for being the folks who surrender all the time. Meanwhile, it does apply.
so GTBE (get back to eve)

The disband should have been a thing that took 24 hours to go into effect... the fact that it happened instantly is a broken aspect of the game that needs to be looked into. To disband an alliance at least half of the members should have to agree to it.
All a corp should be able to do instantly is leave.

Maybe you shouldn't do it if you think its about hard work and is serious business. This is a video game, if you take it too seriously this sort of thing is inevitable.

most roles can be applied through other means than director. (look at role management and organisation.)
But my personal oppinion is that there should be voting systems for something like disbanding an alliance and corporations. Depending on shares and livetime. Except for dictatorship ofc. =) where the rule is absulute
A counter should be a factor of how long the allinace or corp has been active.
- if majority agrees
- (24hours default)+24h/pr year of existance, then shuttdown'
else
24h/pr'year should be plenty of time to 'cancell deletion' if the need arrises. Alliances less than a year old shouldnt/(does it deserve to be saved?) be prone to this type of attack anyhow.
As for the topic
Quote: Not worth building corps/alliances if they can be disbanded so easily
My answer would be: "don't make one then, im pretty sure no one is forcing you to make one. And there are allot of issues in this game that has been developed further throughout the game history. remember pre'insurance times not as much fun loosing ships then. Things change in eve. And CCP might even consider this event as turnover into checking into creating a timer in disbanding a whole alliance so easilly. maybe not? The players are still around to do things and the game continues. "

In the larger sense, CCP are careless game designers for constructing an interface that lets this happen. No vote, no cooling off period, nothing. Pathetic

I would support a game mechanic where a company/alliance's solvency is determined by it's share holders.
Real simple and it's already in place. Your corp/alliance makes isk and pays out monthly or weekly like it should, shareholders have votes. It would be very rare to see shareholders want to disband an alliance or corp that was profitable. Which I'm sure BoB was.
I'm sure people smarter than I could come up with the exact details & workings of this.

Suppose you have an alliance. Now let's say there's a rich minority and a poor majority in this alliance. One day the Proles decide they've had enough, and they begin blue-on-blue violence. Camping stations, offlining towers, the whole shebang.
Immediately the Bourge directors move to take swift action and kick the offending corps.
It gets put to a vote and the Proles stay. They vote it down every time. Being a director should mean absolute power, you want this corp gone and you want it NOW!
Even if there is no vote, what if you had to put up with them for 24 hours or however long you fellows are suggesting these things take?
These roles have power for a reason.
Just sayin' |

Edited by: Kyvon on 05/02/2009 19:50:23 id hope they are referring to a vote...between dic/ceos

Originally by: "ATLAS Board" Another Fine example of CCP fail code.
This shouldn't be allowed, it takes month of corps inside an alliance to get to sov 4, etc... it takes week, to drop sovs when attacking, it takes 24H to leave a corp, but one guy press a magic button and it's instant alliance disbanding withoutany warnings, votes of all the interested parties, etc...
lol...
Just look at it :-/

Because the risk(or work) vs reward ratio is so ridiculously lobsided it makes no sense that this is possible.
This basically equates to Stalin being ******s spy in the USSR and giving him the keys to the USSR. This goes far far far beyond the level of spying or a multi billion ISK heist. IMHO ludicrously so.
