Last I heard they made an attempt at the drone regions. I'm sure they are still around somewhere.

Based on some BoB chat porn that I can't remember specifics about, lots of former FIX are in Atlas or EXE now?

[MahrinSkel]

EXE wouldn't surprise me (Executive Outcomes was in FIX, once upon a time).  Also a lot of FIX in Outbreak and always have been (there was a revolving door between the two for about a year, with some people having characters in both).  And a lot in BoB, and a lot in MC, frankly after 5 years there were a lot of ex-FIX in just about everything that wasn't strictly Russian (PURE was another FIX spinoff that headed north after the CODA war, one of the reasons the McFix steamrolling of the north stopped at Morsus Mihi was that the next up was PURE and some of FIX didn't want to do it).  We used to joke about how FIX had trained half the FC's in 0.0, and it wasn't much of an exaggeration, we had to keep re-writing the playbook because the other side had read (or helped write) the old one.  ImpTech (my old corp) was the last founding corp in FIX, and they broke from it after the withdrawal from Q.  All I know is that there are no systems claimed under the FIX ticker anymore.

Thol (and everyone else who has an issue) stop fucking bitching like (as you all so eloquently put it) every other no mark shit head alliance and fucking FIX the shit you have a problem with. No, seriously. No, we're not up to mark on LOTS of stuff, I have spent the last month speaking to my directorate on how best to contribute to this alliance. It has taken longer than I wanted it to but it is being done. But, you know what? It's getting done. It's getting done long before it becomes an issue because I've still got my guys out there, in fleet, on ts, on command, TRYING to help.

And that is the best we can ask of any of us. No, LOTS of us aren't as active as we used to be. Hell, LOTS of us aren't as active as we WANT to be, but fuck me that's just the way it is. We've always punched above our weight and we've ALWAYS fucked with people far above our numbers, and ya know, if we eventually (now or some day) come up against people who we can't take then woopy fucking doo, honestly that don't mean shit to me - and it shouldn't mean shit to you.

We DO need to adjust our play style. We can NOT just blasé in to any old encounter anymore, we need to EVOLVE... but we ain't gonna fucking do that by WHINING (hi everyone!).

So, this forum has had a grand total of "fuck all" posts on this issue, other than cflux (<3) post on bs fittings - sort your shit out people. If you're active, start posting, start fucking fixing it - if you're not, wait for those that are and then CONTRIBUTE (if you can) (if you can't, hi, merry xmas).

But jesus people, one thing is gonna kill this alliance before anything else and that is the people at the top bitching and not FIXING.

Those that lead fleets every day, I salute you, I always have and I always will - eventually i want to BE you (shit, I used to BE you!), when my time allows it, but in my time in BoB I have lead BoB, whilst every other corp has had to take a back seat. In my time in BoB I have been lead BY BoB, because I have had to take a back seat - I have followed every corp in this alliance by hook or crook and right now we all need to follow each other.

If we can't then, inevitably, some of us will split - but for the fucking love of god, don't let us split because we're fucking average. We're not. If we need the evil end of time ceo meeting then let's have it but I am getting really fucking bored of seeing the logs from #bobsecure that make me think "lol".

Ya'll know what I'm saying here guys, let's fix this shit.

When i joined bob there was a sence of pride in being that little bit ahead of the curve. Which for me is why i play games, as i am a very competetive person. But nowadays people don't care if their members use t1 guns, or undock their dread when told not to, bouncing 250 of the station with hostiles in local and the friendly gang 16 jumps away.

I do get pissed off about many of these things, mainly becus we have portrayed ourselves as being better then the rest, and now we're applauding mediocracy. Hell i even had people tell me that my ts rants on ppl that fuck up were not really appreciated. I should pat them on the back ofc

Yaay was stopped from FCing by what was essentially a popular outcry/OH GOD SAVE US appeal to Molle. This was unprecedented at the time and has not been done since. There was a good reason for it.

The main problem was that he never took responsibility for ANYTHING. He'd kill an entire fleet by warping it into a bubble vs 4x numbers and then spend half an hour ranting about "goonie spies" on TS. The guy's voice would start to crack and you could hear the spit hitting the mic, it was pretty gross. It was also absolutely demoralizing to the point that USTZ became about 10-15 people unless Twd/Molle/someone was alarm clocking and then suddenly they all came out of the woodwork. The guy managed to take one of the most enjoyable, intense, and morale BOOSTING periods of time (the battle of delve) and make people not want to log in.

Bob porn, best porn.
