lol I'll just say it was obvious trolling and thank you and xero for all the fun so far - I'll make sure to get another topic going for us later . It's 4 AM and IRC has me drained with talks of PC... no new maps man... no new maps.... :(

You Pink guys are the only ones who are any fun to forum pvp with - you don't cry imps and will get down and dirty in the trolling ^_^

I have deleted a troll from this thread.

Sure im was forged and tested by the hottest flames known in all the known worlds. I am death incarnate such is the way of the IMPS, your puny yellow-colored flames are like air conditioning to me. I will use the heat to melt your suit and feast on the charred carcass you leave behind.

You're screwed no matter how you slice it, honestly. Pretending that Molden Heath is where CCP decides to start this off (nowhere near certain), Hedaleolfarber III is a huge economic asset. It's in a dead end system, and that's EXACTLY what makes it worth more, not less, than other planets in systems with many adjacent planets. It's very defensible because attacking it costs more.

In addition to being very defensible, I think it has something like 20 districts on it, right? That's nearly one tenth of all the districts we're expecting to be able to capture at all.

So Dust Uni is saying that you want 10% of potential PC income for free on a planet where that income is nearly guaranteed.

Sugar coating things isn't my style. There are two words explaining this whole situation: Misguided and stupid.

I guess the word "diplomacy" is different in your books than in mine, because in mine "diplomacy" involves talking to other parties first, and then taking action. You've done the opposite here. If you had stopped to talk to other parties in the first place, you'd know that your plans...

You still have a chance to make the smart decision for Dust Uni and pull back on your plan to go into PC. Use Fac War for additional training exercises and wait until the major planetary sov holding parties settle down a bit after the starting pandemonium. Then negotiate 3 districts or so somewhere.

You have the whole spiritual support of Onward! Defrosted Tuna Team!

Trying to deny it now? oh wait that's right - your only denying you guys didn't start it. Oh well - if you guys don't want the cred I'm sure the imps will take it :) or red star lol

What we are asking for is a pledge from anyone who wants to be taken seriously as a kaiju to leave us alone and perhaps to help us if we need assistance running off griefers and/or sharks.

Any corp that is worth fearing has absolutely nothing to gain by smacking down the colleges.

Any "big name" corp that attacks a college has proved that they are either too incompetent or too chickenkitten to fight the real badkitten kaiju corps. Everybody knows that a corp like Imperfects could roll either college. All that doing so would prove is that the attacker is completely unable to stand toe-to-toe with Noir, Orion, or the other kaiju alliances..

He can't hear you I stomped him too far into the ground.

First off....Bojo, please tell me you're talking to Vaerana Myshtana about becoming a diplomat...

Secondly, DUST University orginally posted our intentions to take a specific planet for two key reasons, NEITHER of which involve asking for donations or agreed upon support.

1. Maintaining our neutral stance by declaring our intentions to the public so that our mission is clear to all. Our goal is a subset of districts on the planet, period.

2. To fulfill the promise of transparency we made to the communinity during our original discussion regarding our participation in PC. This also ties back to our stance on neutrality.

Also, to be clear, Bojo's School of the Trades does not have the same stance on neutrality as DUST University. By taking such a hard stance on neutrality DUNI may in fact be making things more difficult for itself but we have a vision we want to fulfill...and we won't let the difficulties of our mission deter us from our goals.

We've staked a claim and we will do it again if the region changes. If organizations or individuals want to support us because of what we're trying to accomplish that's completely up to them. If they want to attack we will defend. If the claimed districts are taken we will take them back unless WE deem it to be counter to our mission. We will continue to support the community at large regardless of what the future brings.

Great speech Chief Diplomat Golden, to bad we are still taking your stuff.

Free Beers
Chief Taker of Other People Stuff
Director of Trolling, Extortion, Public Belittlement

To be honest Beers, I could care less about the titles...just wanted to be clear that I do in fact speak for DUNI considering some of the side conversations going on in this thread. :)

As far as taking our stuff...the harder we fight to keep our stuff or to take our stuff back the faster the education process becomes...mission on target.

Continue Beers, not that you need my permission ofcourse, but you often have good points

And they'll still be able to rally defenders. By some twisted variant of honor(dunno, maybe professionalism? basically, douchebags attack schools, most people don't like douchebags, even in new eden.) or calling on their recruits who have moved on to bigger and better things. Or by simply getting the attackers to point out EXACTLY where(it may be a backwater planet, but you keep saying you'll want it the second a flag is down. that leaves you to either dedicate all resources to attacking, or you look like the chest pounding paper tigers you are) they're going to be, setting up perfectly for anyone who doesn't like their MCC afk'ing asses to step right up and wear their hobnailed boots while they stomp.

So you are siding with Bojo

While we can only field a couple of squads (on a good day) and don't intend to get much bigger, the 0RCS are willing to help whenever we can. Whether you are a small or a large corporation, if you believe this is an effort that will make the DUST and EVE universe better, show your support. If not, I suppose we'll see you on the battlefield.

It's very naive of these corps to think they can just "claim" a planet without fighting for it. I wish you the best of luck though you never know what might happen.

Who will protect our schools from invaders?

They are expecting to fight for it. They are just looking for those that are interested in helping in order to establish a school planet. Funny thing, people trying to build something interesting in this sandbox.

...My point is, every corp. is planning ahead for PC, why can't the "academic" schools do so as well?

He can't hear you I stomped him too far into the ground.

1. Our upper limit for training requirements is 3 districts. One as a sovereign where we can regroup if needed and two that will in no doubt be in perma PC combat for our students to practice in a friendly fire enabled environment. The reason that we need 2 extra to Bojo's one is that we have a few more players that require the training.

2. We're not in this for the ISK.

3. Attacking a University of new players maybe fulfilling a need to make a point or simply be just a laugh. But others may just be waiting to take advantage of the situation. I'd watch your flank while spending resources on attacking us or Bojo.

3. I'm hoping it does cause people to attack us, fighting is what this game is all about. You don't enter a queue and get ported into battle only to sit in the MCC do you.... wait.

IMPS rule, 0RCS drool
