Whole Squid is not allowed to shoot FCON. If we are attacked by FCON or any other Imperium alliance we are to run, or if we can't, we have to roll over and die. We are also not allowed to negotiate blue standings with Imperium alliances off of our own initiative. Also Corps Diplo won't do it on our behalf.

With the fire of a thousand supernovas. POS role security is probably 75% of the reason why the Whole Squid alliance exists rather than just having goonswarm characters in WH space. The other 25% is that having a bee ticker in WH space tends to encourage the wormhole CFC to come and evict us. Which leads us to:

Whole Squid is still made up of Goonswarm/Imperium players and therefore we are not supposed to negotiate our own standings. Fair enough. When I last asked why Corps Diplo wouldn't negotiate on our behalf then, I was told the answer given from Corps Diplo was "why should we?"


Something something CREST API and new infrastructure will allegedly solve a lot of our "not quite in goons, not really out either" issues but I've been hearing that for 6 months. :shrug:

Since we are a for-fun entity, any friction from internal sources (based on the question of "why do they get special privileges") creates a negative value situation that cannot be ameliorated by strategic contributions and also if we got standings then every squad/sig would want an alt corp with standings.

Unofficially, I was driving wholesquid to fuckgoon hell and also I'm not very good at talking to people. :v:

Probably fair. Illum have long memories (Elitist Ops :argh:)

It's still a shame because we are totally under utilized and I truly believe we could do a lot of good (recon, path scouting for Reavers etc).

This is stupid, everyone's already blue on other accounts. That's a poo poo tier answer from CD. If they don't want to do it, whatever. But stop being bitchmade about it if others want to put in the effort.

PL couldnt have any greater advantage than they had for the last 5 years which meant gently caress all when the poo poo hit the fan at B-R. They still have a big advantage by keeping ncdot blue and in the family.

http://evemaps.dotlan.net/sovereignty/campaigns/all/Providence I see 95 thingies on the provi sheet but cant be assed to count all the ihubs, is the whole region reffed? Mission accomplished if they all die Wednesday?

Not every IHUB has been reinforced, but a pretty good number. From what I can see, we ran out of time on one IHUB in the GSF constellations, which is actually pretty good considering our slightly slow start and the initial supply problems. Some of our allies also met quite a bit of resistance, but overall, this doesn't look all that bad for a first testdrive and for working out some of the details as we go along.

http://evemaps.dotlan.net/map/Providence#sov -> dotted lines and weird orange glow means at least one structures (if not several) are reinforced.

Holesquad has always had a member of cd in its leadership or active in the squad for over a year :v:

It's probably why it wasn't he'll purged during its inception. If sion says no standings it does not matter who is where policy is policy ect. Hs will always be in a weird spot as its active in pvp but doesn't use alliance funds and most of donate to the server drive so leeching services arguments are retarded.
