10/10 troll, for what it's worth. Hope to see you in the future for more epic Basic roams!

Trolling without realizing it yourself = Best trolling.

Case in point, NC has just roamed into K3, run away when they realised we were offering them a fight at only 2:1 odds in their favour, come back with 4:1 odds and spammed bff and pussies in local when we stayed docked. How do you think that's going to look from the outside?

Like they're controlling our game? Damn you NC :shakesfist:

So the OP accidentally -trolled- himself?

I think the point needs to be made that we don't hate the NC, hating someone in a game is just a waste of time and energy, and in fact many of us have friends in the NC. You have to look at our standpoint based on our corp ideals. We like fights, we like PvP, we like excitement and we don't like stagnation. The fact that we are fighting NC is just a natural progression of our ideals, our idea of heaven is a game where we can log in and always get good fights, always have something going on, always play in a dynamic environment. The NC prefers stability, we prefer chaos and excitement. This puts us at odds, but it certainly doesn't make us hate them. And we always go where the fights are regardless of political affiliation. This is a social game, and I've had some great fights and convos with people in the NC. We will always try to maintain our good social standing within Eve, and we will teach and enjoy teaching anyone who wants to take our courses and learn. However things turn out

Very true and as I am now on my way out of being blue to NC etc I feel comfortable saying what I think those that remember rho will know what is coming lol..

OMG!! I guess being in AU spoilt me, While the ideals of NC and BFF were nice in theory as was the jump bridge network, there ability to think out of the box or actually to bring a good fight was almost nil, many times we formed up and if we couldn't get atleast 20-50% more than the estimated enemy fleet numbers the fleet stood down, I was in the 020 battles (miscalculated timers) and the debacle in lowsec when NC decided to "hotdrop" the DRF with titans and the priceless moment when a titan pilot informed the FC "Sir we can't use our DD's in low sec".

A fleet of 90 maelstroms me in one of them masacred NOT because we got hotdropped on a jumpbridge (cudos to evoke etc I believe it was them) but because our bloody FC kept telling us to anchor on him, ONE massive problem He was in a ship going twice the speed of the maelstroms and thus while all our logistics could keep up with the FC 90% of our ships ended up out of range of logistics and flying in a straight line wonderful target for the enemy fleet.

Also let us not forget the amount of times NC commited us to a fight then refused to deploy there Supercaps even when DRF deployed titans to the field.

There is some good people in NC, some good FC's but there high ups and general crap shoots that happened make me happy to be out of 0.0 for awhile.

I tried so hard to get people to use different tactics and ideas, explaining that fleet doctrine is fine but it makes the enemies job very easy if they know exactly what you are flying, if the enemy has 100 ships 30 of them logistics calling only one primary makes there logistics job very very easy 1 primary + 30 logistics = invulnerability if the enemy logistics fleet is up to par.

<-- was not the most popular person seems the one skill I never even got to level 1 was keeping my mouth shut

Also, this just in:

We are not blue to PL, and during a pretty one sided scrap with NC (battle report), PL confused an Agony Abaddon for an NC one (source)

The highlight was Shadoo raging over not being able to beat lanis lecrosis' tank (name is from memory) he was called primary 4 times and got reps at 20% armour every time.

For some reason the secondary and tertiary dropped much faster, but this dude refused to die. It turned out he was friendly, nice logi work AGONY, there was a good 50+ tengu shooting that baddon

Damn you PL nooblets, use that alliance ticker in the overview!

Confirming this. I was one of those that tried my damnest to punch trough the logistics on this guy but he just refused to die. Then suddenly someone said.."wait, this is an AGONY guy... is AGONY red?" and the Shadoo went "NO... is he AGONY? aaaaaaaah, okay my bad, new target is.... ". Looks like he had a true massive EHP fit because we were all shooting him and those Tengus dish out some serious hurt. Since then we have seen the occasional AGONY pilot or two in NCdot/Merciless fleets but have managed to aviod shooting them
