From a outside point of view, surprises atacks favors the atacker, as it was in this case. Then after some time to organize, the defenders fight back, but when they were ready to fight the atackers already left.
Ye, but this is not a GRN bashing thread.
We can agree that it was not a great fight.
Granted.
So, focus on the next one.
Make it better.
Both sides should easily have understood by now how they can improve the next one.
Now lose the negativity, please.

Omi, you know in the past I've fought the GRN frequently. This has always seemed to be the case in combat. I don't think it really has anything to do with numbers, because you yourself should be perfectly aware of the skill bar difference between the GRN side and LN side. I wasn't even present for the event, and I probably won't take part in it, either, but I know you had two Solaris gunboats, and several snubs. You outnumbered any opposition at first, then vanished when more came. Its always been that type of push and pull when fighting breaks out in this particular war, in my opinion.
My suggestion, even though I know it's fun and nice to fly with your friends, maybe try and balance the skill bar more? Getting your faction active is nice and all, but when you have a force of what is essentially the best PvP team on the server fighting side by side constantly, its really crappy for the other team. Maybe if you guys went on opposing sides more, the event would become more challenging and less of a push-over/poorly timed/he said she said gank/tear fueled festival, and perhaps become a balanced and fun encounter.

I know that TS screenshot was taken after we logged off to boot, but it's still very indicative of my point. I am very sorry that nobody felt like logging back on after waiting around for a while for some sort of resistance, and that most of the channel either dispersed to go to sleep or to return to playing other games which we'd been doing prior to the whole shebang anyway. Unfortunately, at the end of the day, I won't be asking either myself or my faction to do anything that they don't want to do.
If you have a problem with that, then I'm afraid we won't be seeing eye to eye any time soon.
On the forums you can just call me SeaFalcon, since there is no reason to use my personal name since we never actually talked personally and you just heard from me via other people.
Aside from that I don't mind not seeing eye to eye, the screenshots of the fight speak for themselves.
And so does the way the GRN behave.

That TS screenshot was the buildup of forces after you logged off and here you claim that you were unaware.
The pictures in your feedback could give a completely other story and other context of what was going on.
Your snubs outnumbers and outskilled the Navy but when the numbers changed GRN| is gone, all of them.
Hell the 2 Valors and 1 BC that engaged that Liberty fleet still got about 5-6 kills, go figure.
Well to be fair we came with all snubs and 1 GB, we were met by fair capspam, there was like 1 cap per our snub I guess. After dealing with all of most of us were exhausted, then we noticed LN snubs that kept chilling at LA for quite a bit of time and waited for them to come, they didn't so we logged off.

Yea I am "proud" of the type of players we have on this server nowadays. No worries I am chilled, been through too many problems since 2008 to lose my temper.
