I think BOB/IT remains the gold standard for that definition. It is arguable as to whther either Razor or Morsis, on their own, punch in the same weight class as BOB or Goonswarm of old. Putting BOB/IT down for good would define the end of an era in the EVE metagame.<br /><br />I don't think AAA regards what's happening to them as "good, accessible pvp". Nor should IT Alliance. As the next obvious target once AAA is mopped up, IT Alliance would be foolish to think that the forces that gobbled up Atlas and AAA, and are close to surrounding Delve and Qerious, are going to forget past grudges and go back to business as usual.Mord Fiddlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01734756410122516725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604973112865316634.post-40919008740804903882010-10-01T05:29:55.120-07:002010-10-01T05:29:55.120-07:00This time I'm going to disagree, probably to m...This time I'm going to disagree, probably to my regret as you will demolish my arguements with proven ability. However I will persist.<br /><br />"last of the pre-Dominion 'great powers'." - With Morsus Mihi and Razor alliance still strong in the north, andLegion of xXDeathXx in the dronelands - off the top of my head - I think your proclamation as a little off unless your definition of "great power" is different.<br /><br />Also, I am not sure IT is making a mistake. Perhaps they want good PvP more accessible to home as the days of going on month long road trips is apparently over, so a large power like IT might prefer to have a challenge to work against rather than a buffer to have to prop up and defend. As long as IT can protect itself from serious Sov threats, having good pvp close by is preferable to the alternative (and I speak from very recent experience).Kirith Kodachihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12322297953184168725noreply@blogger.com
