2nd, let's call it extreme prejudice, as you guys would. Right heeeere.
You were in Mu.
I would have expected the exact same in Rho. If I led ships to Rho, your HOME SYSTEM, I expect extreme prejudice. I expect to be attacked with everything including the kitchen sink.
This happened in Delta.
That would have been a much different encounter and mindset, whereas I would have held back ships or not engage with the rest of my allies.
In short Mu =/= Delta. Rho =/= Delta.
I expect home systems to be living he'll to invade at any time and all times.
As such, I needed a message dump since I barely did it and that one qualified.
Have a good one.
That's exactly the kind of attitude that provoked my actions.
I'm sorry, bro, but this is how it is.
You ask for it, you shall receive it.
When I can keep fight fairs, I do it. I treat people how they treat me.
I try and keep fair fights, Implo.
But the upset caused when people go out of their way to GLOAT when they defeat forces in a home system and win is meh. You do a fair fight in Delta or Minor cool, it's a cool fight and we good.
But the mentality of "YEAH WE CONQUERED THE HOME SYSTEM" that inevitably comes by? I expect it way too much. As such Mu isn't supposed to be a tea party.
But if it's that unagreeable I will strive to return fair play once more. Alright?
No, no.
I've already been told to go , ahem, let's not quote your leader.
Either way, I'm not against fairplay, I'm against the logic behind "it's my system , I'll gank you with fleets."
If we look from a RP perspective, sure. Everything is justified from RP perspective.
But if we look at it from another angle, ganking my members and then telling me to quote/unquote Golly ( again, I won't drop the F-bomb here,) after I return the favor?
That's no fair play, that's hypocrisy.
Every single fight I tried to balance, I lost. Why? People gathered more than they need to take us out while we were waiting for them.
Most of my members got utterly and horribly ganked at different occasions in the past months, 0 of them complained. We lost, we swallowed it and we carried on.
To sum it up, you reap what you sow. You want fairplay, you'll get it, but only if it comes form both sides.
