--A- is stuck in the mindset of the old EVE master-pet organization. They have a hard time understanding the relationships TEST has with other alliances because they can't understand anything that isn't a master-pet relationship.
+- All enemy offensives have collapsed into nothingness.
-HBC is intended to be a collaborative community. Anyone who is willing and capable of leadership can be part of it. TEST has handled logistics for the most part, Pandemic Legion has handled the military side very well.

-Montolio does not want dictatorships or beaureucracy. At the same time, the coalition will not tolerate shitlords and/or faggots. If you are culturally incompatible, you will be recieving the boot.

-We've been firmly beating the SoCo. Their fleet numbers have dropped sharply, and they can not form large fleets any more.
+- We want communities that exist for reasons more than simple convenience.
-Many of us wish to push into Catch. -A- continually attacks our structures. If they cease this, they will be allowed to stay where they are. If not, we will be forced to invade. -A- wants us to invade Catch so that they can retreat to Stain so they can fight a guerilla war in Catch till the new owners leave. If we have to push into Catch, we will focus only on key staging systems, which will become freeport systems. We will salt the earth and harass their renters as much as possible, forcing them to fight for Catch.

-Shadoo has personally attacked Delve four times, and defended Delve three times. This is the most impressive assault on Delve he has ever seen, and the most impressive defense of Fountain and Delve he has seen. There is no great glory in defensive wars, but it is important to recognize this achievement, against one of the oldest and most knowledgeable coalitions in the game.
+
-Logistics has done spectacularly in these last few months.
+
-We have done better than entities like BoB in projecting our power over short spans of time. We have been able to form counterfleets in hostile primetimes and halt their offensives in their own timezones. -A- successfully countered our Rokhfleet with changing their Tengu fits, but by changing our own fits we were able to counter their new fits.
+
-One of the most impressive things we've pulled off were the doctrine changes we made. In under a week we were able to completely counter -A- Tengufleets by switching to Foxcats. To this day, -A- has not been able to counter Foxcats. We will have to remain ready for swift ship fitting changes and doctrine changes to remain relevant as a coalition. To everyone, thank you and well done.

-Foxcats were designed for a defensive role. For them to serve an offensive role, we need more logistics pilots. We will have to be ready for -A- to make a mistake so that we can punish them for it, and for this we need as many logistics pilots in fleets as we need.
+- Logistics has done spectacularly in these last few months.
-Foxcats will not be our only fleet doctrine. Shadoo will be calling for more fleet concept tests, so be prepared to participate in those tests!

-Massive changes are coming in the upcoming winter expansion. Those coalitions who adapt to these changes the fastest will be the most effective in the game, and PL, and by extension the HBC, wish to be at the forefront of this change.

-Hostiles have split off into four regions, and are looking for excuses to disengage with the HBC front. -A- will likely be re-deploying to Curse in the near future, in no small part to avoid fighting with the HBC. Prepare to make this as painful for them as possible.

-Wrik Hoover is amazing. He has recorded the fleet comms of seemingly every single -A- fleet, and he has single-handedly shown to EVE how terribly -A- treats their allies, as well as each other. Much love to you, Wrik.

-TEST is now the largest alliance in terms of pilots, as well as by the number of systems we hold. We are only 8 stations behind the largest station-holder in EVE.

-(Unverified) TEST has more German players than Ev0ke.

-Baki Yuki is a controversial person among these new German players. Montolio believes in giving him the benefit of the doubt, but if he does give reason he will be drummed out.

-Supercapital sales ban has been lifted. Montolio apologises for handling this announcement in the way he did. The policy was a CFC carryover. At the time, the policy made sense. Then, supercapitals were incredibly powerful. But then is not now, and we are no longer part of the CFC. Supercapitals have been repeatedly nerfed, to the point where Montolio believes the policy is no longer necessary. There are also economic benefits. We do not have Technetium reserves like the CFC, so we need to look to other sources for making money, such as supercapital sales.

-Supercapital subsidies are expected to be returning in the late fall now that TEST finances have stabilized.

+- TEST supercapital manufacturers are required to make a good-faith attempt to sell supercapitals within TEST or the HBC at bro-prices before selling them on the open market.
-Montolio has decided that CCP has most likely begun moving to prefer active income over passive income. While we were up North, everyone had so much technetium that renters were not necessary. In the South, we don't have those sources of income.
+- Supercapital subsidies are expected to be returning in the late fall now that TEST finances have stabilized.
-Montolio believes that the problem TEST has with renters is not, in fact, the renters. It is the landlords that we hate. We hate them because they have taken the master-pet relationship to the extreme, and have been complete shitfucks to their renters. How could we make our policies different from this, to avoid treating our renters like shit? When renters buy into the system. They join an alliance called Honey Badger Coalition, who is +2.5 to us. They get to live in Fountain and use all of TEST space in Fountain. They have no fleet, auth, or services access.
+- DurrHurrDurr and Rob3r are both retarded and sort-of-leaked the news about our new rental policy.
-People will not be disallowed from scamming, so long as you are not impersonating a diplomat or dishonestly representing our rental program. The alliance description will be adjusted as such.

-Being a cunt to renters will be considered bluefucking, and will be treated as such.
+- People will not be disallowed from scamming, so long as you are not impersonating a diplomat or dishonestly representing our rental program. The alliance description will be adjusted as such.
-Rental program revenue will go towards sov costs in Fountain first, then into other programs. One such program is a "Supercapital Welp Reimbursement Fund" in the case of a supercapital welp. This will only pay out if the pilot was not doing something stupid that lead to their loss. The rental income will be shared, in one way or another, with the entire coalition. We are a community, and we will treat one another as such.
+
-If the program is shown to not work, it will be disbanded. It will be given a few months to prove its worth, but if it shows to not be worth what it costs us, it will be ended.
+- Renters will not be recieving sov or exclusivity, they will have access to all of Fountain and own none of it.
-Overall, we have been very surprised and happy with our new allies, Raiden. and The Initiative. We should welcome them with open arms, give them the benefit of the doubt, set aside our preconcieved notion about them, and try to help them join us as a community. Sov will be handed over to them over time.

 Q&A With Paul Knuth
 
 Q: What is the goal for renters?
 A: We are already making >8b per month. Eliphal estimates revenue up to 50-60b per month.
 
 Q: Are regions other than Querious up for grabs for our allies?
 A: Fountain will also be divided up amongst our allies. Delve will be remaning TEST space as much as possible.
 
 Q: How will renters that go into other regions be dealt with?
 A: All of TEST space in Fountain is open to renters. Renters found outside of Fountain will be politely reminded.
 
 Q: How does ratting priority work with renters in Fountain?
 A: First come first serve. Right of refusal will be avoided as much as possible.
 
 Q: From Dovinian: What do you think about buttsbuttsbuttsbuttsbutts?
 A: Completely for them.
 
 Q: With no central authority in the HBC, what concerns are there about disagreements?
 A: There have been disagreements, but they aren't a concern. If an issue arises a more rigid structure will be implemented, but thus far no such changes have been needed.
 
 Q: How will supercapital subsidies tie in with public sales?
 A: Flipping supers to the market is not cool. That will be treated as bluefucking within TEST. There will be a grace period for supercapital flipping.
 
 Q: When will Dreddit be able to use corporation taxes for activities?
 A: Complicated question. Dreddit is thought of as TEST, and by extension HoneyBadgers. Corporation-only operations are going to be avoided, and should be oriented towards the whole HoneyBadger community.
 
 Q: With all of these new doctrines, will these fittings and their pertinent information be centralized?
 A: We are currently in a transitional period, but they will be pushed to be available on the wiki (wiki.pleaseignore.com). Montolio is looking to trim down the number of doctrines the coalition uses.
 
 Q: What are the plans for dealing with awoxers within renters?
 A: Corporations with awoxers will be kicked and barred from returning till they fully repay the losses.
 
 Q: What is the status of sov upgrades and the jump bridge network in Delve?
 A: Upgrades have been filtering into Delve, Querious has been shaky, and will most likely lag behind. Donations for upgrades are welcome (logistics will dislike you, but they're still welcome). Stations are being handed out to corporations that upgrade the systems.
 
 Q: Have we decided on what constellations in Querious will be given to our allies?
 A: Not yet. Don't attempt to set up a base of operations in Querious till everything shakes out.
 
 Q: Will renters be able to join TEST?
 A: Renters can apply to DAWWW, and they will go through the same process as any other corporation. Plans are being made to raise corporation recruitment standards. No priority will be given to renters looking to join TEST proper.
 
 Q: Will renters have access to our services, and will that affect their ability to integrate with our culture?
 A: Complicated question. Do we want to integrate these people into our social structure? This is a purely business transaction. Integration will not be required.
