- [ 2012.01.20 23:51:46 ] Captain Rivel > it doesnt show strength, it shows weakness, you are the 3rd group of players to attempt to take down high sec moms
- [ 2012.01.20 23:51:53 ] Darius III > That doesnt hurt either. there many wind for me on this, personal, political, for my corp and alliance as well. many motives
- [ 2012.01.20 23:51:57 ] Captain Rivel > teh way they are formated wont allow that to happen consistantly

- [ 2012.01.20 23:53:18 ] Phattecia > back to bussiness please
- [ 2012.01.20 23:53:25 ] Darius III > I would like to see, ideally a unified responce from organizers of major incursion fleets
- [ 2012.01.20 23:53:33 ] HardinSalvor > You want us to decide on a nerf to incursions, together, and presumbably present it ot CCP and the players?
- [ 2012.01.20 23:53:46 ] Darius III > Regarding the coming nerf and to run my proposal by you guys
- [ 2012.01.20 23:54:13 ] t8xxic Thiesant > make them harder but more isk too
- [ 2012.01.20 23:54:13 ] Captain Rivel > as a CSM member and as CSM as a whole, for the amount of issues you bring up about incursions, there has been very little action in getting in touch w/ the incursion community
- [ 2012.01.20 23:54:21 ] Darius III > I believe a nerf /adjustment is in order. I have run incirdsions daily for around a month and a half before I started on the moms
- [ 2012.01.20 23:54:23 ] t8xxic Thiesant > also more sites
- [ 2012.01.20 23:54:39 ] Darius III > I dont think any other CSM has even been to a site
- [ 2012.01.20 23:54:43 ] Darius III > But I wouldnt know
- [ 2012.01.20 23:54:52 ] HardinSalvor > Mittens ran lowsec ones briefly
- [ 2012.01.20 23:54:57 ] Captain Rivel > a nerf for incursions only helps nullsec, not high sec.
- [ 2012.01.20 23:55:01 ] HardinSalvor > but that's a little different I guess.
- [ 2012.01.20 23:55:07 ] Captain Rivel > an incursion buff would be a better way
- [ 2012.01.20 23:55:12 ] Darius III > I know I wanted to spenbd as much time as I had to to get a comprehensive grasp of incursions themselves and the incursion community
- [ 2012.01.20 23:55:30 ] Captain Rivel > expand upon incursions, not limit them
- [ 2012.01.20 23:55:35 ] Phattecia > this^
- [ 2012.01.20 23:55:37 ] Darius III > "Nullsec" doesnt care about incursions incursion runners
- [ 2012.01.20 23:55:51 ] Darius III > So many nullsec pilots run incursions it isnt even funny
- [ 2012.01.20 23:56:03 ] Captain Rivel > all the reports made about incursions are people upset with the income made by low risk high sec incursions
- [ 2012.01.20 23:56:07 ] Darius III > The ISK vs Risk is out of line
- [ 2012.01.20 23:56:07 ] Phattecia > besy way for combat pilots to make isk
- [ 2012.01.20 23:56:23 ] HardinSalvor > Can I propose one at a time?
- [ 2012.01.20 23:56:28 ] HardinSalvor > this isn't gonna go anywhere like this
- [ 2012.01.20 23:56:35 ] Captain Rivel > i do agree that isk per hour and isk for risk is not correct
- [ 2012.01.20 23:56:43 ] Darius III > Incursions are pretty much the best guaranteed income in eve right now
- [ 2012.01.20 23:56:55 ] t8xxic Thiesant > risk for isk.... the ships we fly are expensive and they get lsot
- [ 2012.01.20 23:56:59 ] Captain Rivel > the way to fix that though is far different then what you have in mind
- [ 2012.01.20 23:57:06 ] Darius III > I assure you there is no nullsec conspiracy
- [ 2012.01.20 23:57:07 ] t8xxic Thiesant > all is needed is fro logis to mees up
- [ 2012.01.20 23:57:11 ] t8xxic Thiesant > or fo rfc to mees up
- [ 2012.01.20 23:57:26 ] t8xxic Thiesant > the large wantities of isk include having shiny ships
- [ 2012.01.20 23:57:31 ] HardinSalvor > Again - maybe we should have darius speak, then rivel, then...etc? because there is WAY too many people talking
- [ 2012.01.20 23:57:32 ] t8xxic Thiesant > hence the more risk
- [ 2012.01.20 23:57:33 ] Phattecia > while you say that now Darius, it just makes me think there is one
- [ 2012.01.20 23:57:33 ] Darius III > I never said what I had in mind to anyone or wrote it anywhere so, again please no trolling
- [ 2012.01.20 23:57:46 ] Darius III > I wont lie in this convo nor will I troll
- [ 2012.01.20 23:58:00 ] Phattecia > go ahead darius, spit it out
- [ 2012.01.20 23:58:14 ] Captain Rivel > so long as you get to hear what the incursion community wants, and from the ppl who have been through incursions from teh start; youll see that theres a fair and reasonable way to fix incursions w/o 'nerfing' them
- [ 2012.01.20 23:58:26 ] Darius III > I myself organized Bricks tro make this mission a success. There were many participants and key players invilved, but Brick cam because I led them
- [ 2012.01.20 23:58:44 ] Darius III > RIVEL I AGREE I said nerf/adjustment
- [ 2012.01.20 23:59:01 ] t8xxic Thiesant > ask ccp for more nullsec incs
- [ 2012.01.20 23:59:02 ] Darius III > My proposal is to move isk away from Vanguards and into assaults
- [ 2012.01.20 23:59:07 ] t8xxic Thiesant > or bump up them
- [ 2012.01.20 23:59:35 ] Captain Rivel > ill let you finish what your saying, we can debate ideas later
- [ 2012.01.20 23:59:52 ] HardinSalvor > :D
- [ 2012.01.21 00:00:13 ] Darius III > I believe that assualts difficulty at the site and difficulty of organization are underpaid
- [ 2012.01.21 00:00:22 ] t8xxic Thiesant > agree
- [ 2012.01.21 00:00:55 ] Darius III > Similiarly I believe Vanguards are rediciuously overpaid and far too easy+fast for the money recieved
- [ 2012.01.21 00:01:02 ] t8xxic Thiesant > ask to double p nullsec isk payout and ass payout
- [ 2012.01.21 00:01:08 ] t8xxic Thiesant > all of you would be hgappy?
- [ 2012.01.21 00:01:12 ] Phattecia > all sites should scale, with hardest sites, most profitable
- [ 2012.01.21 00:01:27 ] Captain Rivel > its not as simple as skewing the payouts
- [ 2012.01.21 00:01:46 ] HardinSalvor > for the love of all that's holy, if we have 5 people talking we won't get anywhere
- [ 2012.01.21 00:01:50 ] t8xxic Thiesant > vanguards are easy witha proper fleet and fc
- [ 2012.01.21 00:02:13 ] t8xxic Thiesant > a lot of things can go wrong
- [ 2012.01.21 00:02:26 ] Darius III > this convo will be saved, and analyzed by me. Talking by 5 poeple will sort itself
- [ 2012.01.21 00:03:03 ] Darius III > vanguards are very easy agreed or no?
- [ 2012.01.21 00:03:10 ] HardinSalvor > That won't help us right now unfortunaatley - if you want to ahve a debate, we need to understand what each other are saying right now rather than to be analyzed later
- [ 2012.01.21 00:03:28 ] Captain Rivel > vangaurds are too easy for an experienced fleet
- [ 2012.01.21 00:03:34 ] Phattecia > this^
- [ 2012.01.21 00:03:40 ] Phattecia > but not for nubs
- [ 2012.01.21 00:03:45 ] Darius III > agreed
- [ 2012.01.21 00:03:50 ] HardinSalvor > agreed
- [ 2012.01.21 00:03:51 ] Darius III > progress
- [ 2012.01.21 00:04:06 ] t8xxic Thiesant > make additional sites , harder ith mroe payout?
- [ 2012.01.21 00:04:15 ] Darius III > Assault fleets are harder to organize and harder to run for less isk agree or disagree?
- [ 2012.01.21 00:04:18 ] t8xxic Thiesant > harder with more payout
- [ 2012.01.21 00:04:24 ] t8xxic Thiesant > agree
- [ 2012.01.21 00:04:27 ] HardinSalvor > agree
- [ 2012.01.21 00:04:31 ] Phattecia > agree
- [ 2012.01.21 00:04:38 ] Captain Rivel > harder to maintain, yes
- [ 2012.01.21 00:04:42 ] Darius III > Progress again
- [ 2012.01.21 00:05:29 ] Darius III > Buffing assault fleets with ISK from A reduced payout from vangurads would be more properly scaled, agree or disagree?
- [ 2012.01.21 00:05:41 ] HardinSalvor > disagree
- [ 2012.01.21 00:05:51 ] t8xxic Thiesant > disagree
- [ 2012.01.21 00:06:10 ] Phattecia > disagree
- [ 2012.01.21 00:06:11 ] Captain Rivel > disagree as well, its teh site and fleet requirements that make it unappealing
- [ 2012.01.21 00:06:22 ] Phattecia > for the payouts
- [ 2012.01.21 00:06:46 ] Darius III > So you maintain that one site pays too much and is too easy while anothe is more dicfficult and pays to little but that balancing them would NOT be better scaled?
- [ 2012.01.21 00:06:46 ] HardinSalvor > Darius, may I elaborate why we disagree here?
- [ 2012.01.21 00:06:56 ] HardinSalvor > Yes, may I explain why?
- [ 2012.01.21 00:06:59 ] Darius III > Please do. I am doing this to LISTEN TO YOU GUYS

- [ 2012.01.21 00:07:25 ] Captain Rivel > thats horrible logic darius
- [ 2012.01.21 00:07:29 ] Darius III > I spent 40 hours arrainguing this just to talk to you guys
- [ 2012.01.21 00:07:32 ] HardinSalvor > first, there#s a lot I want to say about the many things which I disagre with about this convo, but skipping voer that for now in the interest of progress
- [ 2012.01.21 00:07:39 ] HardinSalvor > the reason we disagree
- [ 2012.01.21 00:07:42 ] HardinSalvor > is twofold, I tihnk
- [ 2012.01.21 00:07:45 ] Darius III > Also I did it to get the votes from BTL and TDF members in coming election
- [ 2012.01.21 00:07:56 ] Darius III > but my logic is poor
- [ 2012.01.21 00:07:58 ] HardinSalvor > we know, darius, please one moment
- [ 2012.01.21 00:08:06 ] HardinSalvor > let me talk :)
- [ 2012.01.21 00:08:13 ] t8xxic Thiesant > wait you popped mom to be liked?
- [ 2012.01.21 00:08:20 ] Phattecia > pfft
- [ 2012.01.21 00:08:23 ] Darius III > go on Hardin
- [ 2012.01.21 00:08:26 ] HardinSalvor > Thank you
- [ 2012.01.21 00:08:58 ] HardinSalvor > Everoyne here agrees taht the payouts for sites are somewhat inverted
- [ 2012.01.21 00:09:05 ] HardinSalvor > The sites with fewer poeple earn the most ISK
- [ 2012.01.21 00:09:25 ] Phattecia > most isk/for time
- [ 2012.01.21 00:09:42 ] HardinSalvor > which we all assume is not what CCP originally intended, nor is it encouraging for team play which we feel is the point of "group PvE"
- [ 2012.01.21 00:09:48 ] HardinSalvor > yes, sorry.
- [ 2012.01.21 00:10:01 ] Phattecia > ♥
- [ 2012.01.21 00:10:06 ] t8xxic Thiesant > having 21 ppl cooperating is very hard
- [ 2012.01.21 00:10:26 ] HardinSalvor > We also agree that the inherent risk of running incursions is low compared to the reward they generate, as a trend across all sites
- [ 2012.01.21 00:10:35 ] HardinSalvor > pleae one moment more toxic
- [ 2012.01.21 00:10:38 ] t8xxic Thiesant > kk
- [ 2012.01.21 00:10:57 ] HardinSalvor > There are, however, two issues which darius is merging together
- [ 2012.01.21 00:11:13 ] HardinSalvor > First: The imbalance of the sites in relation to each other and the co-operation required
- [ 2012.01.21 00:11:33 ] HardinSalvor > Second: the imbalanceof the sites in realtion to other ISK generating activities aka sanctums, wh's, etc
- [ 2012.01.21 00:11:59 ] HardinSalvor > So while I think we would agree that assaults as relative to vanguards should be moved in favour of assaults
- [ 2012.01.21 00:12:24 ] HardinSalvor > the second issue prevents us from accepting this point, because of the increase/maintaining of ISK generated which would result
- [ 2012.01.21 00:13:20 ] HardinSalvor > This discussion could be easier by taking these two issues seperately - how do incursions sites pay in relation to each other, and how do tehy pay in relation to teh rest of eve
- [ 2012.01.21 00:13:25 ] HardinSalvor > ~fin~
- [ 2012.01.21 00:13:50 ] Captain Rivel > as you can see, each of us have thought about this for a while
- [ 2012.01.21 00:13:57 ] Captain Rivel > and we have different thoughts on the matter
- [ 2012.01.21 00:14:01 ] t8xxic Thiesant > k guys this was fun i got to log now
- [ 2012.01.21 00:14:07 ] Darius III > o/

- [ 2012.01.21 00:14:13 ] Darius III > thanks for your input
- [ 2012.01.21 00:14:13 ] Captain Rivel > so a simple questionare of 'agree' and 'disagree' wont cut it
- [ 2012.01.21 00:14:13 ] Phattecia > o/
- [ 2012.01.21 00:15:07 ] Darius III > For me a simple agree or disagree is all I am in search or
- [ 2012.01.21 00:15:38 ] Captain Rivel > and thats fine for starters, we would need to go back and go into further detail on those questions though
- [ 2012.01.21 00:15:51 ] Phattecia > you will not find that here darius
- [ 2012.01.21 00:16:04 ] Phattecia > the 3 of us
- [ 2012.01.21 00:16:10 ] Darius III > Again, I have spent numerous hours to get this input from you guys
- [ 2012.01.21 00:16:12 ] Phattecia > have been here since incursion began
- [ 2012.01.21 00:16:37 ] Phattecia > you will find no better input on incursions , @ least from the shield fleet side of things
- [ 2012.01.21 00:16:39 ] Darius III > I invuted you guys for a reason, to listen
- [ 2012.01.21 00:16:59 ] Phattecia > im listening

- [ 2012.01.21 00:17:27 ] Phattecia > different kinds of sites
- [ 2012.01.21 00:17:31 ] Phattecia > harder AI
- [ 2012.01.21 00:17:41 ] Phattecia > scale up payouts for ass, and HQ's
- [ 2012.01.21 00:17:45 ] HardinSalvor > HQ > assault > vg in terms of pay
- [ 2012.01.21 00:17:48 ] Phattecia > hell
- [ 2012.01.21 00:17:52 ] Phattecia > scale scout sites for the nubs
- [ 2012.01.21 00:18:11 ] Phattecia > they make shit compared to the next highest lvl
- [ 2012.01.21 00:18:18 ] Phattecia > hey
- [ 2012.01.21 00:18:20 ] Phattecia > wait a minute
- [ 2012.01.21 00:18:21 ] HardinSalvor > (and compared to everything else)
- [ 2012.01.21 00:18:23 ] HardinSalvor > x
- [ 2012.01.21 00:18:25 ] HardinSalvor > xD
- [ 2012.01.21 00:18:29 ] Phattecia > shouldnt scouts be the farmanble ones?
- [ 2012.01.21 00:18:36 ] Phattecia > not VG's?
- [ 2012.01.21 00:18:38 ] Phattecia > wtf CCP
- [ 2012.01.21 00:18:44 ] HardinSalvor > lol
- [ 2012.01.21 00:18:46 ] Captain Rivel > incursions had a great launch, they gave a good sample of different types of sites, challenges and fleet comps. when incursions change they should be expanded to a new level, not lowered and made less attractive
- [ 2012.01.21 00:18:56 ] Phattecia > incursions saved this game
- [ 2012.01.21 00:18:59 ] Phattecia > imo
- [ 2012.01.21 00:19:15 ] Phattecia > also, what rivel said
- [ 2012.01.21 00:19:23 ] Darius III > Non PvP players make up a majority of eve players
- [ 2012.01.21 00:19:34 ] Captain Rivel > i do have a semi lengthy explanation to what exactly "expnded" means but that would wait until im not talking over everyone
- [ 2012.01.21 00:19:41 ] Darius III > BVut they are not organized nor do they have discipline
- [ 2012.01.21 00:19:42 ] Phattecia > i disagress
- [ 2012.01.21 00:19:46 ] Phattecia > eve is pvp
- [ 2012.01.21 00:20:01 ] Darius III > Captain Rivel: you have the floor
- [ 2012.01.21 00:20:02 ] Phattecia > there are just varying degree's of targets
- [ 2012.01.21 00:20:05 ] Captain Rivel > these incursion channels and fleets were setup by pvpers
- [ 2012.01.21 00:20:21 ] Captain Rivel > incursions began as a gold mine for pvpers who knew how to fly in fleets
- [ 2012.01.21 00:20:24 ] HardinSalvor > I'm really sorry guys, it's half midnight here and I@m out of time. I will write my personal stand on this issue on the incursion guide tommorow for all to see, and I'll get this chatlog from someone, but again sorry I need to go. o7
- [ 2012.01.21 00:20:46 ] Captain Rivel > and when it started, it got ppl into a decent high sec training ground for incursions
- [ 2012.01.21 00:21:01 ] Phattecia > laters bro
- [ 2012.01.21 00:21:05 ] Darius III > PHAT
- [ 2012.01.21 00:21:16 ] Phattecia > ?
- [ 2012.01.21 00:21:40 ] Darius III > I didnt see hardin was leaving I was going to say mail me if you you had more but you stayng
- [ 2012.01.21 00:21:51 ] Darius III > Rivel, continue please
- [ 2012.01.21 00:21:52 ] Phattecia > ♥
- [ 2012.01.21 00:22:04 ] Captain Rivel > hardin will mail you what he wants to say regardless if you let him or not
- [ 2012.01.21 00:22:14 ] Phattecia > cconfirmed
- [ 2012.01.21 00:22:22 ] Captain Rivel > so getting back on track w/ teh expanding incursions
- [ 2012.01.21 00:22:47 ] Captain Rivel > theres 3 problems w/ incursions, payout scheme, risk vs reward, and the format
- [ 2012.01.21 00:23:23 ] Captain Rivel > isk per hour is inverted, as mentioned before, but that doesnt exactly mean a nerf in payouts
- [ 2012.01.21 00:23:55 ] Captain Rivel > just needs to scale better, which means a small nerf on vg payout, or an increase in site completition
- [ 2012.01.21 00:24:05 ] Darius III > I am against taking isk out of incursions
- [ 2012.01.21 00:24:18 ] Captain Rivel > 10m isk per site is fine, so long as the risk is there to justify that
- [ 2012.01.21 00:24:34 ] Phattecia > agree
- [ 2012.01.21 00:24:47 ] Captain Rivel > the risk vs reward, every single site in incursions needs to be reviewed
- [ 2012.01.21 00:25:05 ] Captain Rivel > some sites need to be completely revamped or removed, but all sites need to have some level of randomness to them
- [ 2012.01.21 00:25:16 ] Phattecia > agree
- [ 2012.01.21 00:25:50 ] Captain Rivel > the AI can be focused on different things, attacking as much as they can, focus on defense and avoidance, ewar, or a combination of the above
- [ 2012.01.21 00:26:02 ] Captain Rivel > but never should they do exactly the same thing everytime
- [ 2012.01.21 00:26:18 ] Phattecia > cconfirmed
- [ 2012.01.21 00:26:21 ] Phattecia > agree
- [ 2012.01.21 00:26:46 ] Darius III > I believe I know how CCP will approach the problem, and it will be to make no major changes that involve work, and merely adjust the numbers
- [ 2012.01.21 00:26:58 ] Captain Rivel > and it should be an ongoing process as well and ccp should put the time into incursions as they are definatly worth it
- [ 2012.01.21 00:27:25 ] Captain Rivel > thats a big problem, if thats whath ccp intends to do
- [ 2012.01.21 00:27:43 ] Phattecia > players will def NOT like that
- [ 2012.01.21 00:27:53 ] Captain Rivel > the last solution of the 3 problems is going to require just that, time and major changes to incursions
- [ 2012.01.21 00:28:13 ] Captain Rivel > you can talk to any leader of btl or tdf and they will agree that we do not own incursions
- [ 2012.01.21 00:28:14 ] Darius III > Well I don't have any insider knowledge about it that is just my personal opinion. I am very distrusting of CCP's ability to "do the right thing"
- [ 2012.01.21 00:28:29 ] Darius III > I, of all people, know that you do not
- [ 2012.01.21 00:28:42 ] Captain Rivel > the problem people are having and the reason why these channels have got into power is becuz of hte format in which incursions are formed
- [ 2012.01.21 00:29:00 ] Darius III > 'own' incursions. But what you have done as far as organizind incursion channels etc you have provided content
- [ 2012.01.21 00:29:16 ] Darius III > Content that is rewarding for the player and ultimatly good for the game.
- [ 2012.01.21 00:29:35 ] Phattecia > we agree
- [ 2012.01.21 00:29:35 ] Darius III > Go on Captain
- [ 2012.01.21 00:29:49 ] Captain Rivel > teh format of incursions right now is very easy to take advantage of
- [ 2012.01.21 00:30:02 ] Captain Rivel > so long as theres a large enough group to take on a single site, the incursion can be ended
- [ 2012.01.21 00:30:25 ] Darius III > DO tell :)
- [ 2012.01.21 00:30:29 ] Captain Rivel > the 3rd part of my plan, fixing the format of incursions would fix a lot of problems ppl run into incursions
- [ 2012.01.21 00:30:44 ] Captain Rivel > how do you get ppl to stop running vaguards? dont have them
- [ 2012.01.21 00:30:58 ] Captain Rivel > instead of an incursion spawning w/ set systems being vgs, assaults or hqs
- [ 2012.01.21 00:31:04 ] Captain Rivel > have them all start as vgs
- [ 2012.01.21 00:31:13 ] Darius III > ahhh
- [ 2012.01.21 00:31:24 ] Captain Rivel > once a certain number or influence bar is finished for that system, the vg sites stop and assault sites spawn
- [ 2012.01.21 00:31:38 ] Captain Rivel > if you want to continue vgs, you go to another system, but eventually youll be forced into larger sites
- [ 2012.01.21 00:31:38 ] Phattecia > we actually discussed this...what...9 months ago, among ourselves lol
- [ 2012.01.21 00:31:56 ] Darius III > THIS is what I came here for
- [ 2012.01.21 00:31:59 ] Captain Rivel > this system continues from vgs to assaults to hqs
- [ 2012.01.21 00:32:05 ] Darius III > Go on, in great detail please?
- [ 2012.01.21 00:32:22 ] Captain Rivel > eventually a mom site or a special hq site will spawn
- [ 2012.01.21 00:32:39 ] Captain Rivel > once that is taken down the system locks down for a set amount of time
- [ 2012.01.21 00:32:44 ] Captain Rivel > before it resets back to vgs
- [ 2012.01.21 00:33:24 ] Captain Rivel > in order to end an incursion, a certain number of systems have to be locked down before the mom site or another special site spawns
- [ 2012.01.21 00:33:28 ] Captain Rivel > in which ends the incursion
- [ 2012.01.21 00:33:56 ] Captain Rivel > it makes it a lot harder for a single fleet to end the incursion and forces smaller fleets to merge into larger ones
- [ 2012.01.21 00:34:31 ] Captain Rivel > in order for the end site to be spawned, the incursion community has to be working together to get it to spawn
- [ 2012.01.21 00:34:33 ] Captain Rivel > and then take it out
- [ 2012.01.21 00:35:20 ] Captain Rivel > your lp pool also becomes at risk then
- [ 2012.01.21 00:35:40 ] Captain Rivel > unless theres a large amount of people working towards this, incursions will actually die out
- [ 2012.01.21 00:36:05 ] Captain Rivel > it doesnt become an isk farm, it becomes an event that people have to work through to finish
- [ 2012.01.21 00:36:21 ] Phattecia > and mix live events in there somewhere
- [ 2012.01.21 00:36:25 ] Phattecia > sorry!
- [ 2012.01.21 00:37:11 ] Captain Rivel > if you have any questions about that format let me know, iv gone over it for months to ppl so im most likely missing something
- [ 2012.01.21 00:37:27 ] Captain Rivel > so if theres a part you dont understand about it i can fill it in, brb for a sec though
- [ 2012.01.21 00:37:35 ] Darius III > ok
- [ 2012.01.21 00:38:26 ] Darius III > I think your ideas have much merit, and that they are well though out
- [ 2012.01.21 00:39:10 ] Phattecia > but?
- [ 2012.01.21 00:39:23 ] Phattecia > theres always a but
- [ 2012.01.21 00:39:36 ] Captain Rivel > alright im back
- [ 2012.01.21 00:39:48 ] Darius III > No actually no buts. just what I sad
- [ 2012.01.21 00:39:55 ] Darius III > [00:38:26] Darius III > I think your ideas have much merit, and that they are well though out
- [ 2012.01.21 00:39:59 ] Captain Rivel > the but is ccp already has a lot on their plate and dont respond to things quickly
- [ 2012.01.21 00:40:16 ] Phattecia > there is the but! ( i knew it!)
- [ 2012.01.21 00:40:47 ] Darius III > Well yes frankly this
- [ 2012.01.21 00:40:55 ] Darius III > [00:39:59] Captain Rivel > the but is ccp already has a lot on their plate and dont respond to things quickly
- [ 2012.01.21 00:40:59 ] Captain Rivel > incursions are a very important part to eve, its something that works and hasnt been done before in high sec, ccp would be wise to put the effort into it
- [ 2012.01.21 00:41:35 ] Phattecia > ^that
- [ 2012.01.21 00:41:38 ] Captain Rivel > just to throw this in here b4 i get sidetracted, mom loot. never understood that
- [ 2012.01.21 00:41:58 ] Captain Rivel > it either has to be taken out of high sec or something in site needs to change
- [ 2012.01.21 00:42:15 ] Captain Rivel > im perfectly ok w/ ninja looters attempting to take teh loot
- [ 2012.01.21 00:42:27 ] Captain Rivel > but theres almost nothing that can be done to stop the person
- [ 2012.01.21 00:42:31 ] Phattecia > but @ least give us time to kill them!
- [ 2012.01.21 00:42:54 ] Darius III > The theft mechanic wont be changed IMO forget about it
- [ 2012.01.21 00:43:02 ] Darius III > You do have time to kill them
- [ 2012.01.21 00:43:10 ] Captain Rivel > a simple fix like a delayed warp field or an ae dmg field from the mom when it blows up
- [ 2012.01.21 00:43:11 ] Darius III > You need Lachesis with 1100 scan res
- [ 2012.01.21 00:43:37 ] Captain Rivel > i dont mind that ppl ninja loot
- [ 2012.01.21 00:43:43 ] Captain Rivel > its a part of the game that shouldnt be changed
- [ 2012.01.21 00:43:58 ] Captain Rivel > it just doesnt give any advantage to the fleet who did the work
- [ 2012.01.21 00:44:21 ] Darius III > Neither does any loot drop anywhere
- [ 2012.01.21 00:44:31 ] Darius III > Except suicide ganking ;)
- [ 2012.01.21 00:44:44 ] Darius III > But thats off topic and wont be changed
- [ 2012.01.21 00:44:53 ] Captain Rivel > fair enough
- [ 2012.01.21 00:44:54 ] Darius III > Ok so where do we go fromo here?
- [ 2012.01.21 00:45:02 ] Phattecia > http://kb.eve-incursions.net/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=660
- [ 2012.01.21 00:45:07 ] Phattecia > been there, done that
- [ 2012.01.21 00:45:21 ] Darius III > I am going to be forced to kill the rest of the incursions because TDF didnt participate in the talks. Sorry
- [ 2012.01.21 00:45:23 ] Captain Rivel > from here, youv only got information from a couple of the incursion vets
- [ 2012.01.21 00:45:56 ] Darius III > Thats all I needed
- [ 2012.01.21 00:46:04 ] Captain Rivel > there you go w/ that backwards logic again, BTL and TDF down own incursions and we have worked w/ tdf from the start of incursions
- [ 2012.01.21 00:46:19 ] Captain Rivel > there easy to get annoyed but they are a large part of the incursion community
- [ 2012.01.21 00:46:26 ] Darius III > A great idea, drom whoever is still a great idea and I think the escalation MS fleets would be pure awesome
- [ 2012.01.21 00:46:56 ] Darius III > Scouts>vans>assaults
- [ 2012.01.21 00:47:24 ] Captain Rivel > scout sites were added as a last minute feature by people outside of the incursion team
- [ 2012.01.21 00:47:39 ] Captain Rivel > unless they are revamped, they should just be removed
- [ 2012.01.21 00:47:46 ] Darius III > I think the idea presented is very good.
- [ 2012.01.21 00:47:55 ] Captain Rivel > maybe have them drop random items needed for sites
- [ 2012.01.21 00:47:59 ] Captain Rivel > like ore or civies
- [ 2012.01.21 00:48:12 ] Darius III > The thing with CCP is that they have VERY INTELLIGENT HARDWORKING PEOPLE
- [ 2012.01.21 00:48:28 ] Captain Rivel > if you want a more detailed work up on that incursion reformat, i could work it up and then mail it to you
- [ 2012.01.21 00:48:32 ] Darius III > But somewhere along the lines the good ideas seem to get weeded out ;(
- [ 2012.01.21 00:48:56 ] Darius III > Captain Rivel: That would be very appreciated
- [ 2012.01.21 00:49:14 ] Darius III > *very much appreciated.
- [ 2012.01.21 00:49:41 ] Captain Rivel > ill work on it when i have time and am not busy dealing w/ a channel upset w/ 3rd party greifing fleets
- [ 2012.01.21 00:49:49 ] Phattecia > +1
- [ 2012.01.21 00:50:07 ] Darius III > CCP people are good, even The Mittani does good work, CCP and CSM both dedicated but CCP management is what I fear most.
- [ 2012.01.21 00:50:13 ] Darius III > Lol
- [ 2012.01.21 00:50:20 ] Captain Rivel > also if you want a list of other names that can give you opinions on incursions ill give you them
- [ 2012.01.21 00:50:58 ] Darius III > I was going to announce I would no longer form fleets to kill MS aftrer our discussions, but since BTL left, we are forced to double our efforts
- [ 2012.01.21 00:51:32 ] Phattecia > i take it you meant "TDF"
- [ 2012.01.21 00:51:36 ] Darius III > No no I have talked to many, many people about this and gotten many opinions, but I waited to talk to you guys till Ihad strong position and provided you motivation
- [ 2012.01.21 00:51:50 ] Captain Rivel > as a CSM member ill help and provide any information/input that will help the game, but as a person working w/ krissada against high sec incursions, i dont see a point to your methods
- [ 2012.01.21 00:52:02 ] Darius III > Yes my apologies TDF. It will be publically recorded that we will continue because of them.
- [ 2012.01.21 00:52:18 ] Phattecia > oh no
- [ 2012.01.21 00:52:28 ] Phattecia > please say what you want about BTL
- [ 2012.01.21 00:52:50 ] Phattecia > what you are doing, has been done before, and is nothing new to us
- [ 2012.01.21 00:52:53 ] Darius III > Captain Rival, I have a convoluted sense of logic, and at times people express doubts about it. For instance, killing people in hisec to get their vote
- [ 2012.01.21 00:53:16 ] Captain Rivel > we arnt tdf, but we work with them and we are both major players in teh incursion community, even if you left btl alone we would still help tdf
- [ 2012.01.21 00:53:27 ] Phattecia > +1
- [ 2012.01.21 00:54:06 ] Darius III > What I did and what I am doing is new to eve. Never before has a 'pickup fleet' formed from crime and punishment been successfu;
- [ 2012.01.21 00:54:31 ] Captain Rivel > you havnt been invovled w/ incursions much have you?
- [ 2012.01.21 00:54:32 ] Darius III > Now with some notable successes, and more publicity, it will b every easy for me to form up 50 man fleets in a day
- [ 2012.01.21 00:54:44 ] Captain Rivel > over the last year 3 groups have tried what you are doing now
- [ 2012.01.21 00:54:50 ] Darius III > I have done all levels of incursions daily for months
- [ 2012.01.21 00:54:53 ] Captain Rivel > and you rank 3rd in terms of greif caused
- [ 2012.01.21 00:54:57 ] Phattecia > in that respect, "mebbe", but with killing high sec MOM's? this is like the 3rd or 4th time this exact thing has happened
- [ 2012.01.21 00:55:04 ] Darius III > thats ok I didn't come to cause grief
- [ 2012.01.21 00:55:12 ] Phattecia > riiiighhtttt
- [ 2012.01.21 00:55:33 ] Phattecia > the grief works into your publicity
- [ 2012.01.21 00:55:34 ] Darius III > Well then if thats what you believe, I cant change your mind
- [ 2012.01.21 00:55:47 ] Captain Rivel > there is something you have said in your forum posts that is wrong btw
- [ 2012.01.21 00:55:59 ] Darius III > Yes that is very true. In that sense of course I tried to cause grief. But not as an end product.
- [ 2012.01.21 00:56:08 ] Captain Rivel > you mention that btl and tdf control incursions and wont allow 3rd party fleets to kill moms, that is not the case
- [ 2012.01.21 00:56:13 ] Darius III > Captain Rivel, what is that?
- [ 2012.01.21 00:56:16 ] Phattecia > means justify ends?
- [ 2012.01.21 00:56:39 ] Captain Rivel > the only time we ban people for taking down moms is when they do it before the withdrawing phase
- [ 2012.01.21 00:56:44 ] Darius III > I dont think I have EVER said that, but if I did I would like to see it
- [ 2012.01.21 00:57:18 ] Captain Rivel > it was either you on the forum post when you were talkign about the campaign against incursion runners w/ you and krissada, not brick squad
- [ 2012.01.21 00:57:20 ] Darius III > Your bans do not affect my ability to spy on you, organize peolpe or anything that helps you by banning us
- [ 2012.01.21 00:57:22 ] Captain Rivel > or later in the post by neoshocker
- [ 2012.01.21 00:57:46 ] Phattecia > we see everything you guys do, just as well as you see what we do
- [ 2012.01.21 00:57:55 ] Phattecia > it works both ways
- [ 2012.01.21 00:57:58 ] Captain Rivel > banning is done to protect the players in teh channel, we know that its very easy to get alts into it, that comes w/ running a public channel
- [ 2012.01.21 00:58:02 ] Darius III > In fact the more people you ban, the more of those people that come to fleet to assist in killing/forcing the destruction of the MS
- [ 2012.01.21 00:58:19 ] Phattecia > we ban peeps that already support you
- [ 2012.01.21 00:58:24 ] Darius III > Because they want to prove something/exact revenge
- [ 2012.01.21 00:58:24 ] Phattecia > they are lost to us anyways

- [ 2012.01.21 00:59:37 ] Captain Rivel > there was plenty of brick squad pilots who would fly incursions and were welcome into btl pub
- [ 2012.01.21 00:59:51 ] Captain Rivel > w/ your actions and involvment they are currently banned
- [ 2012.01.21 01:00:01 ] Phattecia > and then they come to us, say they are sorry, and we re add them
- [ 2012.01.21 01:00:16 ] Phattecia > which is turn, makes more work for us
- [ 2012.01.21 01:00:17 ] Darius III > With our successes, it will now be easier than ever to form fleets. Thats ok if they are banned, we are at war so often again that they have to use alts anyway
- [ 2012.01.21 01:00:26 ] Captain Rivel > it doesnt have to be forever but it wont go away until your campaign dies out
- [ 2012.01.21 01:01:00 ] Captain Rivel > both kill it with fire and skunkwork have been banned months before you involved bricksquad

- [ 2012.01.21 01:01:16 ] Captain Rivel > the only group that has been banned afterwards was bricksquad
- [ 2012.01.21 01:01:29 ] Darius III > The ban means nothihng whatsoever, please believe me
- [ 2012.01.21 01:01:49 ] Phattecia > [00:58:04] Darius III > In fact the more people you ban, the more of those people that come to fleet to assist in killing/forcing the destruction of the MS
- [ 2012.01.21 01:01:52 ] Phattecia > means nothing?
- [ 2012.01.21 01:02:23 ] Phattecia > or you were referring to RAWR only?
- [ 2012.01.21 01:02:24 ] Darius III > no no that you have banned Brick Squad. The more banned people the morew people that join the "illegal" MS fleets

- [ 2012.01.21 01:03:54 ] Captain Rivel > illegal refers to the agreement and only applies to our channel, people seem to remember that we dont own incursions yet always bring up that our channels have power w/in incursions
- [ 2012.01.21 01:04:02 ] Darius III > Our members ARE FORCED TO USE ALTS SINCE WE WILL HAVE WAR FOREVER. Our guys are welcome to leave and come back in 1-2-500 days if they dont like the wars/bans/anything. Truely we dont care about being banned from your channels

- [ 2012.01.21 01:04:24 ] Phattecia > duely noted sir
- [ 2012.01.21 01:04:55 ] Darius III > I really was hoping to end the 'illegal' fleets and let you guys get back to business. I really was
- [ 2012.01.21 01:05:09 ] Captain Rivel > what i want to understand is whats the point behind your campaign
- [ 2012.01.21 01:05:14 ] Captain Rivel > what is your goal and your focus
- [ 2012.01.21 01:05:26 ] Phattecia > just for shits and giggles, what would it take to end this?
- [ 2012.01.21 01:05:47 ] Darius III > Ah
- [ 2012.01.21 01:06:13 ] Darius III > I dont have any demands, and I couldnt "make it end" I could only take 40-60% of the guys off the table
