lol It's hilarious to see you STILL going on about that. I wonder if you wake up in a cold sweat every night, cursing my name and shaking your fist at the sky. bahahaha Go delete your own account and make up more stories kid, cause this one is old and frail.

I'll take your response as you concede defeat. Good day sir.

So um, do I have to state in every such topic that there won't be a wipe or can we take that as a default?

Its just wishful thinking by a lot of folks who see it as their only way to catch up. Easier to spam tickets/forums than to play the game.

I'm totally against a reset as a new player, if I was an old hand I'd stop playing but Rex's suggestion makes the most sense well that and forcing the big groups to actually fight one another somehow and get through some of their resources, maybe make infrastructure really expensive too.

Why don't you guys fight each other?

You can do some variation of the everything is fine post as much as you like, meanwhile as it has been for the past three years or w/e, any influx of players has been followed by a mass exodus, numbers from steam launch have already dropped off a cliff. So, if there are no broken mechanics, theres no problem with power projection, etc, etc. Why does this consistently happen?

It consistently happens because every newbie CEO comes in, and despite ample advice and warnings,  thinks he's smarter then everyone else and aligns his newbie corp with a vet alliance too soon. A vet alliance is usually involved in a campaign against another vet alliance, and the newbies simply can't survive in that enviroment. No EP, no stockpile, no experience. Dead meat.

+ Lack of content was also a big factor in the early days.

Dazz why don't Rad do pvp training?  Why don't you standardize your fits so your fleets aren't Hodge Podge?  Instead of all these people pointing a finger, why not do more?  You have some great resources in Rad.  I.E. Mark Zima.  Watch pvp videos posted.  Learn from them.  Like well rounded fleet comps, primary target priority, terrain usage, how to kite, fittings and teach your ewar pilots how to us ecms properly. 

Are you going to die?  Probably, but that's the point!  You learn from your mistakes and you learn in small gang pvp to know what to do in big gang pvp!

These new corps should be doing pvp ops every other night.  And in between doing corp ops to gather resources.  The corps should be handing out bots/t1 or t2 gear.  And go out engage and don't try to run away.  Actually fight.

Two battles I've fought cons their biggest mistake is their FC ran.

It'll be fine when people start playing intelligently and stop using tickets and Devs as a crutch to make up for their own lazy stupidity.

Some classics for example:
- "HERP DERP IMMA WALK IN UR NURALGIS N BLOW IT UP FOR LULZ HUEHUE U NO TOUCH ME IM NEWB"
- "RESTARTING CLIENTS BE4 BIG FIGHT IS FOR GIRLS"
- "WE PLAY EVE LOWSEC WE STRONK N SMART SO GUD"
- "SLURP SLURP RESET BE UR WORST MISTEAK HIHIHI"

If your corps not doing what I listed above you should not be complaining about not holding territory, because your not trying.

-There are ways to hold territory through peaceful means.  It's called Diplomacy.  If you think your too good to engage in diplomacy, and then cry on the forums after an incident your going to get trolled.  Hard.
