WOW that's a lot of assumption and tin foil hattery.
Alright, so let me break it to everyone being as - up until three days ago - I was one of the lead directors in ANONYMOUS (still am but I'm not acting like it).
Here's the jiffy. We got out of the war with TSOLE, did the ceasefire agreement, yadda yadda yadda. Got attacked by Outer Heaven, all fair and well we knew they were going to attack us anyway; it's just their nature, they're like Russians in Eve Online the only guarantee you'll ever have with them is that they're going to attack you at some point.
Now, what was really interesting is when we were talking in our public channel about which districts they attacked - something we were highly amused with being as all the districts they attacked were previously owned by TSOLE before they failscaded and even more importantly OH didn't attack the two districts we were going to be giving back to them as par our ceasefire agreement, as well as our home districts on Aeditide.
Literally within five minutes of me saying that those two districts were attacked and we knew there was someone spouting information to them; we just didn't know who.
Little while later Vivi Nos, who had only recently returned to the game, ran off with a whole hundred-eight million (108,000,000) ISK and the "inside" threat was pretty much nill because ole dude said; "Eh, **** ever being trusted by anyone again" as many have before, which is perfectly fine because this is something we [ANONYMOUS] had prepared for long in advance and many of the directors had safety stores of ISK in case it ever -did- happen as we had, on a few occasions, jokingly robbed ourselves in fake "turn-coat" practice runs.
Now. As far as being taken out from the inside? This is absolute, 100% bullshit.
What -REALLY- happened is we played the first few matches against Outer Heaven and considering that we had already gotten out of a war with TSOLE a lot of the directors all came to the same mutual conclusion: The game ******* sucks.
ANON Illuminati, our previous CEO, resigned when he got the PS4 and gave it to Harlequin 13 who had also quit Dust 514 because he was experiencing the (much better) game Eve Online. Originally he and I worked very closely to get the corporation back on track but eventually it occurred to the rest of us that playing on the same ******* maps over and over and over again wasn't fun for anyone and there were way too many mechanical imbalances (Logi master race, grenade spam, terrible map design) in the game to justify being king of **** mountain.
Just saying, 75% or more of PC is the Cargo Hub infrastructure and that will -ALWAYS- be the Orbital Artillery Outpost, which just happens to be the most broken socket in the entire line-up simply due to the rings and towers.
Cross all of that with PC Lag and round-the-clock timers and anyone would get pissed off and throw their controller through the television like I did.
So no, it wasn't because of ONE turn coat or because of some insider conspiracy; it's because we all pretty much came to the same fuckin' conclusion just about everyone else has (or will depending on how long you've been in PC).

funny thing is i explained to him as well he also facebooked me telling me i was right lol i have the message to prove so but im not going to continue this i know i have alot of stronger friends on dust and in other games who will love to have me if i decide to ever comeback goodluck to you all.
Joeboa, if you couldn't make any sense of that then you obviously haven't been playing this game long enough lol.
ANON Illuminati, I got the message(s) too. Here's how it went when I said, "You were right" and it was PURELY out of sarcasm.
[REDACTED]: but i heard ppl were leaving the clan like preston state egypt you
Simon Marcus Myers: Mhmm.
[REDACTED] vivi robbed the wallet i predicted this. i clearly said it right before i left
Simon Marcus Myers Yep, you were right, all hail the king.

DAMIOS82 wrote:Well perhaps its time for me to voice up and say wow, you know its truly sad...When egypt recruited me i was a bit reluctant, but after playing with you guys i truly thought i entered a brotherhood of gamers, that would continue to play with each other over many more games to come. Yet the last month or more you could see this brotherhood fall apart one by one. Anon/ Iz yes you where the better leader and under you it was a brotherhood. But lets face facts you abandoned this brotherhood over a fight/ps4. You know whatever your reason was, offcourse i don't expect you to just accept it all, but abandoning your brothers in game over that, really? No offence bro, but to be a leader you must act like one and perhaps with those words some may learn from it for other corps/games to come.
I do believe that after Anon left, Aeon and Harl tried to do there best in keeping a sinking ship afloat. But some people are meant to be leaders and some are not. And Aeon your meant to be a politician, but not a leader in the sence of that leadership, despite it beeing a game, is a full on job. And i believe that once you lost your interrest in the game, that bit of leadership went away with it.
Egypt and State, i don't persay wish to speak ill of you's two, but hey you two got very loud mouths. Sure i was not there when your arguments occurred, but lets have a look at the hear say, if i hear from other corp members, ow bla bla bla left, because egypt or state got into a fight with bla bla bla, over and over again. Hey don't you think that there is something wrong there, if your constantly fighting with your fellow corp members. Or hearing things like egypt or state was pulling his rank as a director and saying i'm the director bla bla bla. No offence buddy, but beeing a director means jack ****. It entitles you to **** all. Not to mention its a ******* game for crying out load, so lighten up a bit. If you had leadership abbility's in you, you would know that trying to be a dictator in a corp, that was if i'm not mistaken founded on democracy, simply does not work other then have fights with eachother and people leaving in the end. And State i might not have played alott with you, but when i did your agression was truly felt, to all parties playing and dude thats not normal.
So as for the ship sinking and yes even i jumped ship in the end, i think each and everyone of you had your parts to play in this and you's need to own that, be mature.
As for my final words; ANONYMOUS is/was a group of players that come together to just have some fun in whatever game (these where the words i was recruited with) and i believe it all just became a bit to serious. Allthough i would endorse conquering every other corp here, it should not come at the cost of eachother, for in the end we are just that, mate's, friends, fellow gamers that just come here to have some fun.....remember those words..
Honest to god I never really tried to be a leader though. I'd get served up on a silver platter to take command on the field and I would often do so reluctantly or outright refuse, I enjoyed being the politician because it was my strong suite =P
A long long time ago someone told me that Democracy doesn't work in Eve Online and I believe it. We gave it a good, solid effort but you can't have democracy in a game like this, where different opinions always clash. We all have different goals and ambitions. ANONYMOUS truly started to die off when we stopped Q-Syncing in Faction Warfare, which is where that 'brotherhood' bond was most prominent, albeit that was before we made a solid try at PC and started frothing at the mouth with ego.
Harle and I knew it was going to happen one day or another. Took a lot of preventative measures to make sure no-one wound up with too much power and we worked our asses off day-and-night (Harle especially) to stick with the alliance (Renegade) and do our part. In doing so we sort of lost touch with our own corporation, our own affairs. Nothing really wrong with that so long as there is someone willing to step up when we couldn't always be there and in my case it wasn't that I lost interest in the game (christ I'm still playing it lol) it's just that I lost interest in Planetary Conquest. We had 23 districts and were without any real direction other than surviving.
One more thing I want to add, we didn't leave the districts unlocked because of some stupid inside job - we ALWAYS left the districts unlocked because we thought it was a bullshit tactic. Only times we ever locked our districts up were for practice matches with Unknown Killers and holidays xD but I love propaganda so whatever people wanna believe.
Anyway, good on you Damios. It's a small game, I'd imagine we'll be sharing a nanohive again at some point or another.

It's not nearly as useful as one might imagine. Specialist Assault Rifle has 50-60% reduction in CPU/PG whereas the Specialist Plasma Cannon has a 17% reduction in CPU. Which is a whole 19 CPU (which becomes less and less as you figure in other skills). Not really worth the price.

I agree it's not amazing or anything but my PLC fit is quite restricted by CPU, even with light weapons op at 4 and PLC fitting op at 4 and electronics at 5. Sometimes all it takes is that couple extra to make the "perfect" fit. But yeah, I was kind of disappointed that it wasn't a little better.
I got a post about it somewhere >_>;
