    Perfect time for people to step up since expectations are low. If everyone else is sucking, then the only way left to go is up hopefully.

    And sometimes leaders do have to be away from the game, and I don't think any of the hyper-competitive types at the top of the game are above taking advantage of that as soon as it's known. The timing here, as I understand it, is leader had to step back, then hostiles attacked, not the other way around. It's in no way an excuse. The cut-throat nature of this game is such that cultivating a deep "bench" is mandatory if you want to stay on top, unless you either have no life, or are willing to make Eve your #1 priority in life. I think that inferring cowardice in someone who isn't here to defend himself is a little low, though.

    First we were too scared and didn't want to fight even while out numbering you. Idiots seem to forget even one SC is tough to kill let alone doing it in sub-caps? Now try to do it with more SC's backing it up. Inbeforebringyoursupercaps herp derp

    Proceed into smack and 'We want fights.'

    We fight and lose a battle to large amount of super caps and caps. Combination of good fights are said followed up with more tard-talk from everyone.

    Thinking we'd get another decent fight then have to deal with SC's which are backed up MOAR SC's. hurr durr


    This is a prime example of what I said in local to which I was flamed for even though is was right. Truth hurts I guess. No one wants fights, not even PL. People always claim that, but realistically everyone what's to gank with impunity or fear of loss. Nothing wrong with that and who honestly wants to 'lose'? Exactly, no one.

    So who wants to play WOT?

    Your whole line of thinking there pretty much sums up Grand Space Admiral Shadoo's comment about you, but you're apparently too dumb to realize it.

    It would be so incredibly awesome if one day the Russians just reset PL in the midst of one of those supercap blobs and they fought to the death. Might be the only chance to see those mass supercap deaths that CCP was promising us.

    Hey look, you made me create a posting account just to address that steaming pile of shit your calling words.

    We don't want a fight, REEEEEEEEEEEALLY?

    So, just to be sure we recap properly:

    First we beat the shit out of your pets, but you left them to die, wouldn't come fight us
    Then we crippled and crushed HTA, you came, got the crap beat out of you by like 100 dudes (when you brought 7 alliances and like 500 people), after the initial battle, you didn't come back
    Then we attacked C-J, and rather than fight, you stacked 900 people in the system to AVOID a fight entirely
    Then, we raged, and attacked you all over the place, thinking, MAYBE, you'd come and fight. You didn't.
    Finally, running out of options, we attacked 0-W directly, thinking theres NO WAY you could avoid fighting, unless you didn't mind ALL the rest of your space burning.

    And we don't want to fight?

    I've seen shit about the russians "accidentally" EUU and shit like that, you guys must be deluded on a never before seen level, EUU fell because it was literally camped for a solid week, the same way HTA lost TTP. The only people here who don't want to fight, is you. You only attack when you think you have the number advantage, you only come out when you think you can win, and you, are failing at just about everything you try.

    We came to fight, and I stand by what i said to you in local last night, you're a faggot.

    The problem you described in 10 sentences can be described in 3 words - lack of leaders. You dont have anyone with a plan. Atm you only react to PL+Russians, and they ~control~ your game. As long as the initiative (not The Initiative.) is in their hands, you will loose, loose fights and loose morale.

    You need someone, who can motivate and inspire people enough to log, fight and win. The only thing your fcīs do are oshit, lets safe the stuff, PL is here unless we have 3:1 odds and even then we fear to deploy stuff as it might die. You will loose morale of pilots sooner than your precious things. Thats if Bobby isnt around you can say Atlas dead in few weeks. So you should prey, that he finds time to play, and you all should pay him for doing so

    Btw. Iam just in WOT, so go and TK me

    More like PL resetting the Russians. They just haven't managed to coax enough of them into their fleets yet to spring the trap. Will be the greatest bait and gank in the history of Eve.

    Read comprehension, get some. Within the context of what I said I am implying people will 'fight', but only when the advantages are stacked. It's obviously stating the obvious, but you're too dense to get it.

    Wipe away your own ignorance bra, the atlas train of thought is obviously failing.

    I'm always mad, don't you get it?


    And your the only people who seem to think we're fighting you with some kind of advantage, you have 10 times our numbers, 10 times our supercaps, multi time zone coverage, but you refuse to use any of that, and its not my fault.

    There is no secret oppression of Atlas, the only people holding you back from the fight is you.

    Nut up and fight, use your supers to fight back, DO SOMETHING.

    I camped you in 0-W the first night with TEN GUYS.

    TEN.

    You were so fucking scared because you couldn't see local that the 90 of you in the station wouldn't un-dock and do anything about it. I mean, TEN GUYS.

    Tell me one alliance you helped to survive some crisis, instead telling them they are retards and let them die while grabbing one, two of their corps and than being fofofo. Followed by tears and complains of blob.

    Many of your renters and allies were shit, however they wanted to fight. You cannot await that if they see, you dont really care, they wont be like, hey Atlas needs us, lets give em our hand.
    It takes a brain to sometimes help others in order to get helped later on.

    you cant help someone who's alliance has collapsed, and thus has no control over timers, jammers and all the stuff that, you know, assists with defending.

    Two steaming piles of shit don't make a gold brick. There were no Russians to speak of involved in the taking of EUU other than to be handed the station by you, their dutiful employees. You did not come to EUU looking for fights. My little alliance got exactly three fairly evenly matched fights from you that I can remember. One we lost, one was a stalemate, and the other you ran from as soon as some of your vagas and cains started to get hammered.

    Frankly, having fought all of you, we've got more respect for Red, and way more respect for Darkside, than we do for you. Those two bring a straight up fight. With you, it's all about the gank, and the spy, and the hot-drop, or some other cute angle. After you hot-dropped a half-dozen Macs on a domi to avenge the cynobal you lost to a bait Raven, we were done. Don't get me wrong, pressing the advangage when you have it, and using every cute angle you can think of is perfectly fair game, but then trying to say you're looking for "good fights" is lame, and there's no sense throwing a tantrum when someone calls you on it.

    Your a means to an ends, an unfortunate bystander who got accidentally ran over in the attempt to get Atlas to fight for something.

    That would be part of the basis of me offering to let your corps go, for a price (something which only 2 corps in all the pets has taken seriously).

    Basicly (as grath alrdy pointed out) U painted yourself in a corner by letting all ure pets die 1 by 1 more or less alone. Most of em was more or less "FUCK ATLAS" after a week or two of Graths crusades. Mainly not because we are by any means Uber, but more that they felt betrayd and left alone to die (and laughed at) by the ppl they have been paying in blood and isk to. You was the Strong corner that the pets could rest their shoulder at in times like that, but rather u felt like mocking em, and at best sending a symbolic relief force not suited for the task at all that died horribly giving us the biggest propeganda card we could ask for. "Your overlords can not save u".

    I see many of the qualites or lack of quaities and signs from TPP currently in O-W.("PL cheats" claims ,1:10 local but still u will find PL controlling system, lack of proper FCs, balls and members loosing faith/not willing to risk asset because of lack of faith, members evacing their asset as best they can while driving bikes/unsubbing).
    Now its your turn to get mocked at by your allies and left alone to rot.

    PL are by no means experts in defending asset/space,(fountain anyone) but should you pick a battleground why not let the battleground be some pets space rather than waiting til ure sitting camped in ure main station. The "correct answer" in my eyes would have been to give the attacker as such a bloody nose in the beginning that they lost the faith that they could achive victory to a price they could accept. Waiting and letting em win nonstop for 2-3 mothns steamrolling your pets is basicly asking for trouble as the confidence level and "smoothness" of the warmachinery is skyhigh, tactics adjusted and well oiled by the time it hits u.

    That would be part of the basis of me offering to let your corps go, for a price (something which only 2 corps in all the pets has taken seriously).
    I've been playing for almost as long as Eve has been around, and I don't recall any major alliance putting up much of a fight to defend rental space, do you? If you're renting space, and you've got any smarts at all about how this game works, you make hay while the sun shines, and then don't give any back when things go sour. Its about the only way right now that a young alliance can hope to close the wealth gap with older alliances. If it wasn't you, it would have been someone else, if not this month, some other month. EUU was very very good to us.

    First, I would like to congratulate you on playing Eve for a long time. Clearly, your experience has served you well. Secondly, I would also like to pay you the proper respects for clarifying that you are not a carebear and are instead a true deluxe carebear. Furthermore

    We defended our renters once or twice, BOB defended their renters before they started really not caring about EVE as much.

    It happens, just not on Atlas's end.

    Who us? Nah. If anything we probably should have carebared (is that a word?) more and shot at our Russian friends less. We've had a lot of fun though.

    HTA is the alliance that got all respect from each member of PL ! (orange we still want you !)

    They fought every day every time until the last man.

    Mad props for that.

    0 props for last night when SOLO PL titan warped on your 80 guys and they all docked up.

    Thats wrong, there are ways. Plus you just prooved that being a renter made you better how? You made isk? Cool, but the isk didnt saved your space, it didnt make you fight, it made you soft and you just will move to get another renting spot, instead saying no and fight yourself up to the top. Cause thats the only way.

    Its not in the isk, or lack of supercaps, its in the mind. You cannot buy yourself the way to the top, noone can.

    The whole concept of renting space is pretty much making you shit and never ever achieving anything in this game outside being a slave for some fat guy shouting on you in ts and wanting his rent. So while its good for some carebears, its absolute dead for any group trying to be glorious pvpers like any FOTM group out there.

    HTA did indeed fight like lions. The Orange will always have a standing invite to PL based on pure tenacity.

The cut-throat nature of this game is such that cultivating a deep "bench" is mandatory if you want to stay on top, unless you either have no life, or are willing to make Eve your #1 priority in life. I think that inferring cowardice in someone who isn't here to defend himself is a little low, though.
    Much like how Seleene always dissapeared when one of the alliances he was "leading" got into a tough spot. All of the sudden work and family and everything is in the way of EVE When they are owning then ofcourse there is a lot of time for EVE. You can basically rinse and repeat that shit for most EVE players in 0.0. When shit gets tough "omg work is brutal cant play my wife beats me"

    You should concentrate on being more chill brochico.

    well most of them collapsed once they got hit by and received you suck, we wont defend you message. Cant blame people for not willing to fight for someone who wont help em

    Actually the whole argument is stupid. Thinking these people will have under control when PL+russians hit them without you helping them actively is sci-fi of highest lvl. Noone in eve outside of few groups would have it under control and seems you dont have it either.

    Once or twice, but still, stands to reason that home space is home space, and rental space is a luxury to be cut loose quickly when it becomes more trouble than its worth. It's pretty noobish for a renter to think that they're paying protection money. Rent buys you access, no more, no less.

    You sieged 0-W a few hours before EUU station was coming out of reinforced. I would have been amazed if Atlas had come riding to our rescue under those circumstances. I don't know if you planned it like that, or if it was a coincidence, but it no doubt had some effect on how things went down. Whether they were unwilling, unable, or just didn't think it was the right strategic move to fight for EUU, I don't think either you or I know. I for one don't feel slighted by them though. They rented me some very nice space in which we made some very nice isk, and improved a lot as an alliance. Fair deal in my book.

    If renters are a buffer then ignoring the buffer and making no attempt to slow down your enemy's jolly waltz over it means its not really much of a buffer at all. Atleast you know your place: your betters don't owe you anything.

    PL didn't really give a shit about buffers. Ever.

    To be fair, Atlas used to use super capitals. They'd just lose a few everytime they did

    Is this a recorded message, maybe you just CBA to read a killboard? We've killed more hostiles in Insmother since this started than some "major" allies of Atlas have. No, I'm not going to suicide fleets into super-capital blobs sieging my system with no backup just because it might suit you. Sorry. We've improved quite a bit in every regard while we've lived here, and we'll continue to, and your little speech here notwithstanding, yes, we'll have to get a lot richer and a lot better armed if we want to compete with older alliances. Unless you think that the 50+ super-caps in 0-W right now make no difference.
