    Talk about a win on an epic scale.

    BoB has fallen, and will never get up again, ever. Took long enough :P

    Thats the hardests thing to do sadly.

    I will bet one billion isk that there will be no roleback in the next month and am happy to use Chribba as the escrow.

    If you have an amount that is more 'convenient' for you I will consider it.

    There's a bit of good to come from all this.

    Now CCP has no choice but to fix/revamp the alliance system.

    And that my friends is a win, win for all of us.

     

    PLaying: EvE, Ryzom

    Waiting For: Earthrise, Perpetuum

    Now THAT'S why I like Eve.  It's as close to a sandbox game as we can get, these days, where the players, their scheming and their  PvP can actually shape major events in-game.

    I really wish they had some sort of fantasy equivalent to Eve - I'd marry it!

    Have to agree with you there.  In stead of looking at the biggest MMO's out there and trying to copy them I wish more devs had a look at how CCP is able to make a profit with a reletively small game. 

    I started playing Eve after reading about the Guiding Hand Social club and the great bank heist, thought I'd give the game a go and never looked back.  This is another event that is going get people to talk about Eve.

    I support Belgiums efforts to get noticed ... at all.

    ccp devs will just spawn bpos and titans and such and put them in the apocrypha systems so tht BOD may reform using all those goodies.



    plz dont talk crap
     
    the only corp robbed is BNC and is not the biggest corp in bob
    i bet bob remake the alliance and fight their way up again


     
    it is DOCUMENTED that they (ccp) have done things exactly like what i said on different occasions.  to deny this is to be a liar, uniformed, or intentionally not-smart.
     
    don't tell me to not talk crap when i'm not talking crap.  just gbtw, mmmkay?  (isn't that what you told someone the other day on this board?  maybe you also should gbtw.)

    Damien if you're gonna rant about the T20 incident be accurate
    1... ONE dev did this
    He spawned a Sabre BPO and some Ammo bpos

    CCP dealt with it poorly but they did deal with it when it came to light.... granted they dealt with it poorly AGAIN when the community found out they'd dealt with it poorly the first time but they did deal with it and they put shit in place to keep it from happening again... and it hasn't as far as anyone knows... and with all the people involved in EVE now they couldn't keep it quiet if it did.

    So, please, quit with your tinfoil hat nonsense. Yeah, T20 f'd up and helped BoB 2 years ago. The BPO's have been long gone at this point so just drop it already.

    replies like the above are why ccp can get away with stuff time and again.

     

    really?  that is all you remember ccp doing, as far as cheating, over the past several years?

     

    thanks.  you are one of the people (in)directly responsible for ccp NOT being called on the carpet about these things.  it's not tinfoil hattery if it's true. 

    but hey, that's ok, you're a fanboy, it's the fanboy mentality to not get facts str8, nor to remember anything that happens that is against ccp.

     

    grats, and thanks for keeping the fanboy flames alive!

     

    could we please get correspondent writers and moderators, on the eve forum at mmorpg.com, who are well-versed on eve-online and aren't just passersby pushing buttons? pretty please?

    I sense much emorage and darkside in you.

    Were ignoring the big white elephant in the room..which is CCP has left the alliance management borked.

    Cheating back stabbing scheming BPO copying t20 incident happening aside, thats what this boils down to.

    Just like the fallout from that incident we now have representatives from the gamer base so im pretty sure CCP will address this sometime as well.

  • NicoliNicoli Member Posts: 1,312

    Yeah it will get changed because otherwise we'll have every alliance ran by the alt of the Current Executor corp's CEO in a 1 man Executor corp for security reasons. Anyone who has actually been an Executor knows how much of a pain in the ass it is as you are extremely restricted in what you can allow people to do. I mean it takes the Director title in the executor corp in order to just change the standings for the alliance with no other options on that.

    I guess you are puting your opinion about Eve over the fact and impact of the situation. If you claim it isn't epic, then please state other things in other MMOs (in game) that can compare?

     

    Basically, an alliance (i.e. guild of guilds) that has dictated the world of a sandbox MMO for like 5 years has now finally been put to rest (at least for now). Please, give me another example of such a guild/alliance in any other MMO with as much impact and influence as BoB held over a game world.

     

    There are a few incidents in MMOs that I will personally remember. One is Lord British getting PK-ed in UO, and this. And I have played MMOs for a long ass time.

    what did they call the csms way back when, or was it csm back then too?  why did they disband that group?

     

    oh... didn't know that eh?

Call it exploiting bad mechanics, but the same could be said about can flipping. Yet elitist vets will come and say can flippin is legit. Well, guess what, so is disbanding an entire alliance with the click of a button.
    Eve Online has one thing going for it, realism. Everything else screams waste of time and money. From criminalistic activity by IEB corp taking several billion isk from investors to rumors of CCP dev intervention in gameplay and control. Now this whole disbanding of BoB and I'm sure it won't stop there.
    Realism in MMO's is fascinating to a certain degree. However, Eve Online has far surpassed the enjoying portion into a flat out frustrating prank. I won't be suprised if next week, Ashton Kutcher sponsors the first ever, "You've just been punked!" episode of Eve Online.
    Next...



     

    i don't know if i can quote you or reply to you without breaking forum rules, thereby giving you the opportunity to report me.

     

    please tell me you play eve.  that would make me laugh nonstop after reading your quote.

     

    it's epic because of the scale which it happened.  it's epic because it happened to the largest group of epeening blowhards in new eden.  it's epic because it sounds like some noob directors smacked an old school player and that player showed he wouldn't take that garbage from a bunch of noob losers.  it's epic because it's cost is in the trillions of isk.  it's epic because it's what you would expect goons to do to each other, just for gits and shiggles.

     

    dunno, maybe i didn't break forum rules in replying to you.  i just have to wonder why you're posting in the eve forum with that kind of quote.  it's very anti-eve.

    Makes me think of how flawed the game is. What's stopping people from doing it in....well......every single alliance out there?

    Quite the gamebreaker.

    it's been done before.  everyone is making a big deal out of it because it happened to the biggest epeening cheaters in the game - bob.

    Spying would be cloaked ships spying, not getting passwords from a forum cause a gamer is being a little brat.  Of course Eve Online players think this is cool, they are a community of greifers and gankers.



    What's next?  Credit Card number theft?   Ooh, identity theft.  Hey it's a realistic game isn't it.  REALISM!  Except for the part where the guilty person goes to jail for the rest of their life.

    I have been part of the EVE community since 2006. I am not a griefer or a ganker. When I lose a ship I don't bitch and moan about how terrible everyone is to me... I examine what I did wrong and try to learn from it. And see if I can get a chance to blow their ship up.  When I kill someone else I don't smack talk them in local.  I have seen griefers/gankers in every game, stick to a PVE game if you ar unable to laugh off the crap from the occasional idiot online.  It's a PvP game, remember?
