Sort of too bad. They were the alliance who had resided in the same place for the longest, since back in 2004, before BoB moved to Delve (where they no longer are) http://ansalon.cz/eve/map/1_7.jpg
Who's the longest in one place now? Razor, or Morsus Mihi, or Against All Authorities I should think?

If it was an account hack, as shown by IP logs, then there's a chance CCP will undo the disband, right?
Interestingly, Providence might become quite valuable in Dominion if it's upgraded, I believe.

Proably still less worth than *good* space...
I doubt you can change the type of rats/roids and so on you get? You can just influence the amount of *stuff*?

Sounds like a GM is going to revert the disband.

such a fun read, sounds amazing. Shame it's such a time sink

cva has been restored, devs confirmed it was a hack, not an espionage action.

it doesnt really matter how much isk you lost when all you lose is subcaps

our alliance leadership seems to actually like these inbreds

2009.10.30 23:06 Privateer Alliance has declared war on IT Alliance. Within 24 hours fighting can legally occur between those involved.

You say, "That's IT?" insinuating that what they did was something small. Yet you immediately run back to the ultra nap train getting blues. So its either:
1. IT did something small and that was all it took to make you hop back on the nap train. 2. IT did something big and you needed the nap train to deal with them.
Which one was it?
I don't see a problem there...PL withdrew all unnecessary fighting in preparation for a war against a large coalition of forces (Not just IT).
I think the general feeling here is IT didn't do much, but we all know its going to get messy soon. Playtime in the north is over. Smart move by PL.
It is less than a month till Dominion so it will be a interesting Winter.

I don't think anybody claims that PL is invincible and will win every single fight ever. And definitely not fights where the other side outnumbers our battleships with capital ships. I mean, it even says so in big bold letters at the top of that the battle report on their killboard: Friendly [NC] (372), Hostile [PL] (193).

Looks like a waste of time to read that topic...?

Essentially nobody likes these changes. I expect the cost to be reduced by a factor of 3 or 4.

In addition, we had screwed up the diplomatic side of war. When you think about invading a target and you run the idea past your allies and friends and they respond with crushing disinterest, that needs to be carefully weighted. The reaction of our war-buddies and allies to the Esoteria adventure was a resounding 'meh'. We went through with it anyway, and found ourselves fighting nearly alone, save for Zenith Affinity. By contrast, SysK had friends close at hand geographically and motivated emotionally. Goonswarm's allies had nothing to gain from attacking SysK (just like Goonswarm had nothing to gain) while SysK and their allies were fighting to protect a near and dear friend. This little miscalculation saw the normally blobtastic Swarm outnumbered 700:100 at one point. Yikes. If you're going to invade somewhere, make sure you consider the diplomatic situation more carefully than we did.
