I have nothing to do with this site, but I'll try to answer your concerns anyway.
Soraya Xel wrote:Your corporations and alliances tabs are somewhat unfairly portraying a lot of groups. First of all, many of our alliances are much larger, but misrepresented because you don't bother to pull the alliance list from the API, and query for the details of all the corps in any given alliance. So your "Largest" Alliances thing is incorrect, as is the supposed "Greediest" Alliances. Valid complaint, although I think BGoat has chosen to only show corporations that holds districts. This site isn't about showing the biggest alliance overall, but rather about showing the alliances presence in PC. Therefore it is correct to only show an alliance's corporations that actually hold districts in PC.
This is his choice. The site is about PC and I think it's reasonable to only show corporations with districts. If you want to see all the corps in a given alliance you can use other sites (Dotlan etc I would guess).
Quote:On the "Greediest" Corps/Alliances topics, you're dissing corps for collecting 10% tax, even though that means that they're unable to support themselves on district income, and have to eek out a living on a paltry tax rate. If anything, the "Greediest Corps" are the ones sitting on 40-60 districts for no reason other than to farm them for literally a billion ISK a day. So I have to argue that this is extremely prejudiced. I don't think he's "dissing" any corps here. He's just listing the corps with the highest tax rate and gives the column a fancy headline. Sure it could say "Corporations with the highest tax" instead, but I don't have a problem with a fancy headline.
Quote:Your "Bullied" Corporations/Alliances are actually the corporations and alliances using an exploitative game mechanic to lock their districts and avoid combat. Again, your system is putting the wrong people in the wrong light again. Again, he's just listing the corps with the most districts under attack and gives the column a fancy headline. These are the corps with the most districts under attack whether they attack themselves or not.
Quote:The inherent problem to these displays, is you add loaded language to these dialogs, and they are in fact, incorrect. If you are unwilling to pull the alliance list, to accurately portray an alliance, you should not display alliance size info at all, since you are doing it incorrectly and incompletely. Do it right, or don't do it. As said above, he's not trying or wanting to list whole alliances, but merely the parts of alliances that hold districts. That's what the site is about.
