Regardless of his personal views, you'd think a dude so obsessed with coalition building would not condone his directorate openly making GBS threads on said coalition members at every possible turn.

aren't these illum logs? if so then he's not letting them openly poo poo on them; he's letting them poo poo on them in private, so as to avoid letting all that frustration bottle up and lead to apathy or fuckgoons

Yet here you are chastising us for not doing what you think we should be doing to give you guys content? Do you honestly think we loving care at all to try to fight those kinds of odds? We aren't loving retarded, we know we'll get loving rolled. So what do we do? We continue to troll the gently caress out of the rest of this dumb game because we know it pisses you off so much that we rolled over and let you take it all and denied you the fights that you guys are howling for. You know that once the rest of your coalition gets bored enough the infighting will begin, half of them will gently caress off because goons have no more sov so they will declare victory and then move on. PL will gently caress off to the alliance tournament and whichever group of morons thinks settling in Deklein is a good idea will find out the meaning of guerrilla warfare as we retake Deklein and the surrounding regions. The only potential pitfalls is that GSOL might murder us all in our sleep as they are tasked with rebuilding our home.

I can see the point, but I don't really get it. If we really want to just deny the enemy the opportunity to do anything to or with us then why not just have a directive handed down from on high for everyone to just unsub for a month and hey look there's conveniently another game that we're going to go invade. If our goal is to flatly deny them EVE Online content, then why are we even forming up the fleets that we are? If our goal, as various people have painted it, is to effectively just roll over and wait for the invaders to fracture then come back and reclaim the space in a month or so, then why not crack down even harder on absolutely denying content?

i mean, the problem you have with this narrative is mittens shared the email privately which is a completely reasonable thing to do

lemba was the one who spread it all over the internet, so if you try to prod ccp into banning someone over it getting out it's much more likely to be lemba that gets in trouble

This thread is getting to Reddit level.

Anyway that is a weak defence, but the logs are in paste bin, and the chats are logged in third party software - IRC. If CCP decides to do anything, it's likely that they say the paste bin logs are made up and deny the email's authenticity in public, then loving hate mittani in private.

If CCP really ban mittani over this, it would open the flood gate of inditing logs to accuse duders.

You're wrong because if the text in that log exactly matches the email they sent him then they can be certain that part is real.

Better idea, why not ship down into something cheap and fun. The end result is the same given the numbers situation and believe it or not, flying a shinier ship is not automatically more fun.

MBC loves to mock Swordfleet but it does elicit howls of rage in local when it's FC'd well.

Pretty sure this has never happened.

Flying 30 command ships into 100+ intys and bombers supported by white legion is a lot more fun.

it doesn't really matter if CCP can match the email on the paste bin to the actual email on their server, at all.

This whole thing is dodgy, pastebin, logs on IRC, consequences, etc. CCP being a company, want to make money, not loving being a court of law, so I think they prob play it low key and it's all water under the bridge, and mittani please keep on making people pay for our game and free publicity.

Unless, mittens go crazy and personally leaks every correspondence from CCP.

It wasn't long ago that I suggested we go 100% in character on a hunt for frozen corpses for the Mittens Golden throne. High sec, low sec, null sec.

Just kill anything and gather up all the corpses.

Every now and then we let a T1 hauler get killed by wardeccers and then it's just filled with a thousand corpses.

We have absolutely no way to contest prime time stuff and any chance of escalating to solve that is off the table so again idk what you want us to do because throwing ships into the fire doesn't do anything but keep the enemy around longer because they know we will undock and die. This isn't damage control or "didn't want that sov anyway" this is just common sense.

If we threw away our war chest and super fleet putting up a hopeless defense of Dek we wouldn't have the resources to get back into sov null.
