UN Authorizes Aid Flotilla To OWN Territory

[Tez]

At 23:26 EVE Time, the United Nations Council For The Assistance of the Citizens of New Eden passed a proposal (213-2: United States and Israel the negative parties) for the United Nations to intervene in the central Deklein region of space. The party involved in the reception of aid is an entity knows as "OWN Alliance". The people of this country are ruled by a a dictator that is entirely unconcerned with the well-being of the citizens of his nation. The people live impoverished, unable to receive any sort of recourse for the vessels lost in combat engagements.

To aid in this issue, the The United Nations has approved an aid flotilla consisting of members of Test Alliance Please Ignore to CU9 in an effort to relieve the citizens of OWN Alliance. This flotilla will be carrying construction parts, water, food, livestock, and other commodities essential to basic living. Hopefully, by alleviating the need for the members of OWN Alliance to devote resources to their basic living, the citizens of this impoverished nation will be able to raise their standard of living to that of other spacefaring nations.

This will not be an easy task; the dictator of OWN Alliance has already ordered a no-contact policy for all members of OWN Alliance against interaction with members of the TEST Alliance Please Ignore aid flotilla. However, the flotilla has already arrived in the OWN Alliance capital and is currently distributing medicine, food and various supplies to the citizens in need of it most. We expect a full aid distribution infrastructure to be in place within the next fourteen days.

The dictator of OWN Alliance imposes draconian taxes on the citizens of his nation. Monthly dues, office rent, and other fees/costs are all imposed on members of the nation, and while taking such exorbitant fees, the dictator refuses to implement any infrastructure. The United Nations believes that these systems are essential to the survival of any spacefaring society. These underdeveloped systems include, but are not limited to; ship replacement, industrial assistance programs, and resource allocation infrastructure.

The United Nations is consistently committed to ensuring that all citizens of New Eden are cared for at a basic level; we feel it is our duty to assist developing spacefaring nations and ensure their ability to support themselves is stable.

I't's just so sad to see a CEO treat people this badly I'm just waiting for a written apology.

own CEO you can contact me in game my name is szcwczuc.

[Daddy Whorebucks]

Nice to see a force working for the good of others. Thank you TEST for having the courage so many others lack.

[Kesper North]

I <3 TEST.

[TestPostPleaseIgnore]

We take our relief efforts in OWN space very seriously. The outpouring of support for OWN pilots has been overwhelming. If you would like to help out OWN in your own way, just donate to Test Alliance Please Ignore. Each and every donation goes to making sure that OWN pilots get to experience the same privileges that other alliances' pilots enjoy.

This does not have to happen - you can help change the universe - you can help ensure the well-being of an OWN pilot.

Please, do not ignore the pleas of these poor, impoverished individuals.

[BiggerDangDude]

I was one of the first aid workers on the scene. I have to say the conditions were appalling. All of the OWN pilots were docked and were told to ignore me. Eventually after enough prodding the OWN CEO cornered me and tried to forcibly remove me from their space. Thank God the UN Aid Flotilla showed up. I don't know what would have happened to me had they not gotten there in such a timely fashion.

OWN didn't seem poor, although they did charge A LOT in alliance fees for what they had. I don't think they actually paid rent either, so it seemed like alot for the 4 systems and all. Or if they were paying rent, then make them less poor by reducing it :-P Seriously, a lot of people seemed to think OWN was/is shit, but they seemed to have it together for the most part while IC was in there and they pulled a lot of weight during the Cobalt Edge campaign.

But yes, I lol'd. Such compassionate souls <3 I salute you, brave captains.

[Dr Cheeto]

Our peaceful hauler flotilla only brings basic supplies for the people of OWN.

We encourage other alliances to give supplies and sustenance to the people of OWN. I think we can all agree that, regardless of your feelings toward OWN, there are basic standards of living which each human is entitled to.

Some information:

OWN has 6 Technetium moons and 1 Neodymium moon.

They collect the following dues from every member corporation:

Corporation payment structure:

Corp Dues are to be payed to the Alliance holding corp on or before the 1st of every month.


1-25 members = 200 mill isk per month
26-75 members = 250 mill isk per month
76-125 members = 300 mill isk per month
126-175 members = 350 mill isk per month

This is in addition to the 100 million ISK / mo office fees they charge to every corporation. To be fair, that is a pretty common office rental fee though.

They collect all of this money, but at the alliance level they only reimburse interdictors and logistics.

This is somewhere in the area of 30b-45b in alliance income, while doubtfully paying out anymore then 5-10b in reimbursements / sov costs.

I invite OWN to correct any of these numbers.

[Aokisensei]

Wow, I was under the impression they had no valuable moons at all and that was why they were charging corps up the ass.

Glad we left when we did =/

YOU SEE THE PAIN YOU HAVE CAUSED OWN LEADERSHIP.............WELL DO YOU.

[Aokisensei]

YOU SEE THE PAIN YOU HAVE CAUSED OWN LEADERSHIP.............WELL DO YOU.

I know. Whoever their leader is (I never really paid attention and don't know the name) will now have to put off that shiny new 4th personal Aeon for his collection while I dick around rent-free in Vale.

I feel so shameful

Aw crap, I've been contemplating whether to try to make some time for EVE lately, this gave me an urge to go join up with TEST.

Huge +1 for TEST.

Vidya took OMFG's apple sauce and they won't give it back and then, and then Mr. Montolio took away their lunch box and won't give it baaaack. c/d?

That's one way to do it!

Thank god I only deal with moons, and not diplomacy.

as the days go by the galaxy will watch with bated breath to see an attack from GSF which simply /will not happen/

own could literally bend their members over a table and rape them every day and i will ignore their cries and not care so long as they show up on ops to help against ev0ke, i am not running a fucking humanitarian organization here even if TEST apparently is now in the refugee relief business

in fact if own had slaves chained to computers forcing them at gunpoint to play eve online and someone posted pictures of the child-slave-eve-players with big sad brown eyes i'd grunt appreciatively and say 'good, they will be useful in the next campaign'

child sweatshop jokes will blend in nicely with the jews in ovens jokes on the ev0ke campaign anyway

See this is the key difference between TEST and GSF. One is run by a benevolent group of people while the other is ruled with an iron fist by a communist dictator that has no qualms about enslaving children as long as they help killing nazis and further progress his every growing moon empire.

Also, this is why comrade mittens is so awesome.

Maybe they'll actually show up on ops now?

Besides comedy is greater than strategy anyhow. Make yourself funny enough and recruits will be bagging down your door, alliances will want to join, and people will want to participate.

This can only be good.

All Hail Montolio! All Hail Comrade Mittani! Child Slaves and Humanitarian Aid go together like pancakes and maple syrup!

[Mr Coloredshirt]

I am waiting patiently for the israeli-style hotdrop.

[Endie]

The toilers of the OWN proletariat seem happy enough living in ignorant bliss and they have on occasion brought nearly as many fleet members as TNT to ops so it's hard to get worked up into a righteous fury over a few missing billion. Our job is not to liberate all of Eve's serfs.

That said, those left-leaning, Doonesbury-reading, sandal-sporting, right-on liberals in Test are funny as fuck.

[Kythren]

Dear Test Alliance,

the IMF endorses your efforts, we are looking forward to give support and compassion for your ongoing endeavour of helping OWN Alliance to prevail over this fraudulent leadership. May we all move on strengthened and united once this vicious vermin has been evicted from our loving and caring society. This atrocity must not go unpunished, you will be fully backed up by our liberating prevalence in means of interstellar funding.
