For those of you who don't follow EVE politics, there's been a breakdown in relations between Goons and TEST this last week.

Basically Monty, the CEO of TEST is going a little mental over tiny, tiny things, people are jumping ship from TEST into Goons as we've been exceptional friends for a few years and things are starting to spiral out of control, things could very easily spill over into Dust. It maybe worth you all doing a little research as if this explodes, this could be the next great war, it could easily last 12-18 months based on the Sov we both own and considering that Nullsec is likely to be dropped into Dust around summer time it's perfectly possible it could spill over in a massive way into Dust.

Here's a wee link for you to all have a nosey at:

Tensions Mount: http://themittani.com/news/tensions-peak-between-hbc-and-cfc

The Madness of Montrillo: http://themittani.com/news/gsf-ceo-update-madness-montolio

first of all. they havent even considered how dust is going to effect nullsec. So there is zero chance it will effect 0.0 by the summer.

And second, theres no way its lasting longer than 12 months.

A vote is taking place right now about whether theres going to be a war happening right now in the HBC.

Bluefest turns eve pilots into space farmers and makes it lame. it would be more fun if TEST and Goons hated each other but Ill take a manufactured crisis/tension/war over nothing. Lets hope for good fights all around too. If dust gets invovled in time then I would love a piece of that action.
Zat Earthshatter Osmon Surveillance Caldari State 304	Posted - 2013.01.22 22:07:00 - [8] - Quote Yes on the videos, and yes for letting it spill over to DUST - this kind of large-scale war is the perfect way to begin the Open Beta. Not only can the videos help advertise the game, but archiving this conflict will help fledgling DUST commanders form doctrines and strategies to use on the battlefield.

I'm aware I was only meaning as a more immediate sink, since currently the only people that lose isk on a corporation contract is us dusters. In pathetically small sums at that.

Frodaris Sortana 2100058545 ZionTCD Legacy Rising 43	Posted - 2013.01.23 01:43:00 - [27] - Quote Given what I read about Montolio's track record in terms of his behavior in the past, this situation will only escalate further into a war of unbelievable proportions. The funny thing is that it would appear that out of the major parties involved in this, only Monotolio himself is interested in starting this conflict. I could be right, or I could be wrong, its hard to tell actually We will just have to watch and see what happens as time passes, for in any online game, major fights can break out over the smallest of gripes...
PAUL BERNARD Pink Fluffy Bounty Hunterz RISE of LEGION 76	Posted - 2013.01.23 01:59:00 - [28] - Quote Most alliances in the HBC hate the CFC. but to quote shadoo: (he uses a kinda weird analogy comparing sov war with having kids and having to stay up and take care of them and **. then they grow up and your forget about the hassle and think it would be a good idea to have another one) I edit out alot of where the "....." are Shadoo_Test_Forums wrote: .....And if block wars are like giving birth to babies, then the SoCo war was a sleek little cute baby girl that kinda just slipped out of the uterus. Let there be no mistake -- the CFC war is a *** turkey of a boy. It will RIP UP on the way out and sex just won't be the same afterwards. So here's a book on planned pregnancy, I'd urge you to read it and reconsider for a moment...... ........But my god people, we JUST wrapped up the last war. Don't be in a hurry to start another one...... .....Embrace the chill and just shoot ships, not structures. That's my modest proposal v0v..... tl;dr: reset standings, shoot people, use condoms. And if you're OK with that -- I have something little planned in a few months that'll cause 10-20k characters to converge in a single region to shoot spaceships in up to 1500 vs. 1500 style. Daily. The HBC just finished a sov war, and dont want another one so soon. Plus he alludes to possible other fun ** coming up in the nearish future.

First of all, they have considered how Dust is going to effect Nullsec they just haven't told you yet. I have CSM friends who have let slip a few things here and there that's not covered by the NDA as you'll likley see when the mins are released from the summit. It would easily take 12 months when you consider if you took the CFC's space unopposed it would mean grinding 165b hitpoints in stations and ihubs. The HBC: 240b Thats a lot of grinding without the damn fleet battles and you have to take logistics into it too. I know about your vote, i still have access to your forums, but i also know we just RESET TEST. Dent, i know you've been trying to catch me on jabber etc mate i'm just really busy right now, we really need to catch up though.
