FA did this one with nothing but Black Eagle Scouts on Bridge.
THE BRIDGE IS CLOSED
We didn't even take the point, we just shot anyone trying to go for it on both sides.
10/10, we got the fight we wanted after both sides realized that they needed the middle point to win the match

Your response only raises another question.
Why are you playing Domination?
Why not?
Because Domination is a trashy gamemode and is the reason you are having such a bad time. If you queue Skirmish and Acquisition you are going to have a much better time.
I don't understand how people do not realize by now that the way Domination is set up is absolutely ******.

We got into 2 teams of 3 or 4 and instead of going for the objective we pick out a location where we would only face each other and not bother anyone else.
This worked out great and conditions were to only use starter or basic gear so no one will lose massive amounts of isk. Also both teams would have a healer so no one would lose suits even though they are cheap.
We had dropship battles, nova knive battles, melee only battles, and more. Lots of fun and lots of laughs. Any poor soul tring to ruin it was either killed or the fun was moved else where.
I knew you are booster.
I knew that from your past articles XD
BTW you can manage scrim without mode with points.
Like ambush for example ;)

Ok, so this thread mad me look at things a little differently.
First, what you were doing is boosting, and should not be done. no questions asked, it was wrong.
Now, that is not to say you cant do it. hell I have done it before, but normally it is just me and a friend who que on opposite teams, to see who is better at one particular suit, with one particular weapon.
Normally we do a best out of three or the like, and then get on with the match like a normal red/blueberry.
I find nothing wrong with that morally, due to it being a competition, and not 'lets boost one guy to the top of the leader board so he can get X from a mission, or event.'
As to whether it is right as the game rules go, probably not, and honestly I don't care. That being said, if we get interupped, we don't keep doing it, we get on with the battle, until we are both free to continue. (normally we do this during when one of us is getting stomped.).
I just want to say, is if you have the time to set up this battle between friends, you have time to put an uplink in a position to bring your team closre to the objective/s.
Do I see any thing morally wrong with what you are doing? No.
Does that mean as far as the game is concerned you should be doing it? No.
Does me having done similar things in the past give me a place to say anything on the issue? Not really.
But whatever, just my 0.02 isk.
MUSIC!

The game is terribly boring because of players who hide in the sides of the map/redline not fighting because they think they'lll get stomped. But this is just making things worse. If both team would fight and retry, stomp wouldn't be a thing.
That untrue on a lot of levels. Dont think we dont try when we are synced together. We use our proto on the enemy team but we are later forced to stop because we end up wasting them due to the fact that the rest of the team is not helping for whatever reason.
I dont understand why we have to try hard and lose hard for the rest of the team over and over. The fun dies and people get frustrated so we say forget it because it is no longer worth it. The reward is not great enough when losing isk that isnt so easy to get back. We have not left a battle that out numbered us but that dont mean we like that battle. Its a waste of time and isk.
