You thought that was cap spam?
1st off, I sent a message to a corsair ( a Sails I believe) 30 minutes or more before we even headed to Theta. Then we waited in Theta at free port 9 while both sides gathered up more troops ( & it gave me a chance to insult Joe in his Corsair beer can, cause lets face it, he needs mocking now & then)
Then we moved into Gamma, Role played an attack on Skiros & let the Corsairs come to us for the fight.. THATS when all hell broke loose.
Although this might not have been as organized as Joe's event, it was still a mutually attended fight with role play & pre-warning to both sides in an attempt to make it somewhat fair. All in all I thought it was fun (& I was the first Outcast killed.. go figure)
But with today's little calamity, we have an opportunity to do another role play event. It's 101st's ball, lets see what happens & enjoy it instead of nit picking every lil thing
Perhaps Karolis ment something else.. Bah just get frustrated. Same day aboiut 4 hour before your raid we had to deal with 4 bs 2 cruissers and 2 sabres. Quite intresting team.
Yes its fun to smash bs fleet time to time, but it starts to look more like a chour sometimes.

Here was the message I just received on Skype (cause I got a life that doesn't let me get online 24/24 in week)
<<< In eta is a convoy of 20 OC we need backup in gamma!— Jeroen - Recast, Hier 22:08
4 of our pilots where online ... for how much of yours ? I was told about 20. I told my mens in any case of probable "rape", they leave or don't get in.
When I read all about what is being done on both sides ... I feel like we have ton of work before the Black Sails fix this place.
PS : A faction proposal can't sadly be done well in less than a week or two, since the OPG disband was a perfect surprise even for us, so we can't make so much big decisions for now.
Okay I didn't read the entire thread, only the first few posts.. So those will be what I respond to..
If you have a problem with OC docking FP9, deal with it in-RP. Grimly, you're saying Sails wants to be as in-RP as humanly possible.. And your saying it in an OORP thread where you're complaining in an OORP manner about something that should be dealt with in-RP..
Send a message to the Zoners. Send names of Outcasts doing it, or we can't do anything, because we don't know who to talk to/boot out.
On your claims that the fighting should never happen in Theta/Gamma because the frontline is Eta, perhaps less hypocrisy would be nice. I remember 2 weeks ago when I undocked my Switchblade HF to find 2 Osirises, 4 Legates, and a single Titan attacking Malta.. And then again the next day a similar fleet dock-killing right in front of Malta.. Before that we had 4 BSs, a cruiser, 3 GBs, and a single Praetorian. Three days before that one we had 3 Legates and 3 Titans attacking a Switchblade and a Sabre.. 6v2 being bad already, but it being done with Battleships as well..
So if the frontline really is Eta, keep YOUR people out of Alpha. Then we'll keep OUR people out of Theta/Gamma. But you can't demand one thing and then do the complete opposite yourself.
I'm not flaming you, but I am letting you know the facts and the problems I see here in the steps your taking..
Grimly, don't try to argue about a fight you haven't been to. 4 Corsairs wouldn't even cover the amount of caps we destroyed, the corsair numbers were quite some >10

Was you there Grim? Just asking, cause dont remember seeing you.
As i mentioned, we waited with out a single shot being fired at fp9 for the corsairs to gather more people. Once it was about equal both sides, then we went into gamma. a full 45 minutes from when HAF had exited Eta, till our chase group entered Gamma, along with a note sent to a Sails pilot informing them we was coming , in large numbers. This wasn't one of those lolwutting raids that happen most the time, yes it was short planned, but every attempt to make it a fair fight was also done.
As far as the capwhoring raids from both sides ( it's about equal ) I don't really see an answer to this unless Admin get involved, Cannon can find a way to make any OC or Sair guard tagged ships not able to fire in their enemies home system, or Factions get to control cap ship purchases.
All right, enough cheese and whine from the lot of you. I don't know why I left this thread open in the first place, since it is a thinly concealed trial by forum, but I am fixing this mistake now. Thanks, bye.
