Is there a thread somewhere that explains which neutral/red regions we can go gently caress with now? There's a lot of ESS tags to be stolen over there on the eastern side of the map that were protected by Publord or whatever.

I think you're confusing B0TLRD, which was an agreement between the CFC and PL to not shoot each others renters and I think* ended some time ago and PBLRD, which were our very own renters.

Edit. *Actually, not at all sure what the status of the B0TLRD agreement is.

I am disappointed we didn't get to shoot FA. I'm also betting we pick up a corp or two of theirs. :sigh: On the plus side, at least we won't have to go very far to shoot BRAVE.

My corp was in lawn for more than 2 years but parted ways for bastion last fall. The whole thing sounds weird and out of character for Basil. As it is now, I think lawn only has one corp left from the cloud ring sov dropping days. It would be a little sad to see them fold up.

A few months ago, they were ousted from LAWN leadership, and Thoric was installed as leader. Thoric managed to rejuvenate LAWN and turn them around. The Vulpines -- especially Eingang -- were not happy about the changes he instituted, nor that they were largely successful.

Initially, they announced that they would be leaving peacefully and staying in Fountain when LAWN moved north. Then, they tried to pull a BRAVE and steal executorship of the alliance, but didn't do it quickly enough -- they couldn't reach a critical mass of votes before Thoric was able to get altcorps in and secure his control. (That's why the two corps besides theirs are blacklisted.)

After that, they tried to do a few things both out-of-game (taking down LAWN IT services) and in-game (holding R64s hostage) in exchange for control of the LAWN name. So, gently caress them, may they rot and die in Fountain Core.

Correct. It will last long enough to do sov transfers and move everything in Fountain north, and then they will be reset.

Or, at least, that's what Brave leadership is telling their guys.

I would honestly love to read a more in-depth analysis of this, like with chat logs and stuff. I want to know what led them to believe that they could conceivably get away with what they tried to do. I mean, even if they successfully kept the LAWN ticker and alliance name they must have known they would be removed from the Imperium after such a stunt. Right? Please produce me chat logs that show our former allied leadership is smart enough to realize they were committing political suicide and that this was all a planned (at the barbeque) troll as they moonwalk away from EVE Online forever.

It could be coached as a case study on how to actually conduct these sorts of things and not gently caress up royally like Brave did.

I've been an outsider for a while now.. but my guess is it went to poo poo a bit before Zagdul gave away the alliance to Lux. For a while, Zagdul had been sick and acting very weird. A lot of drama was being caused over a bunch of poo poo and was not being dealt with properly. Lux took over and it just got worst. There was a lot of favoritism in the alliance. People who literally knew nothing about EVE got to call the shot on the account of being popular and "The cool kids". More drama ensued, forums were being moderated excessively. At that point my corp got kicked and I've only received tid bits of information.

On the military side, FA always had FC's that were just incompetent. Ask PL how often they wiped the floor with FA in Esoteria. It was as simple as making a small detour, murdering us and then going to their real objectives. Simply put, Fountain was way too hardcore for FA. When the move from Fade to Fountain was announced, many people were discussing this but leadership didn't give a poo poo. In their mind, Fountain was a reward too good to pass up. They didn't really realise that Fountain is not Fade and the NPC space over there is a lot more loving dangerous than the one in Fade.

I would also love some log chat porn (or just basic porn), but I'm pretty sure plenty of it has been deleted. FA's leadership after Zagdul was not about transparency.

E: And a lot of the FA membership are too loyal to leak... weirdly enough.
