Well when GSF left the south after helldunking N3 they crept out from under a rock and dropped TCU's in the collapsing DD territories and claimed victory

So the precedent set forth by the vast majority of MBC alliances is that: yes, when GSF takes sov back they can claim they won world war bee

I knew a guy in Gorgon who stole a Rorqual years ago on an awox alt (pure accident). He insured it and the used it to salvage capital ships after fleet fights.

I believe this was back when salvaging capitals was hard because (I think?) if you salvaged a ship and lacked the cargo space for the parts. They just vanished. So very few ships could actually salvage capitals.

What area of null? My opinion is these folks are terrible for EVE if they are just trying to get newer players to be the equivalent of slaves to get materials to make a Rorqual. I would also love to get practice in on hunting people as I am currently pretty poo poo at it.

Yes its normal. The instructions don't match the current iteration of the forums software, and nobody has fixed this in ages. Just hang tight, they will get your application sorted in a few days assuming you did everything right.

They run pretty quick when a neut comes into the system, but they're actually having a mining op in like ten minutes, so if you're still interested.
