GRN feedback thread

[Haste]

Code:

[25.11.2013 17:59:11] 27th|Matilda.Antioch: need a hand with that gaul?

That "five" wasn't made up.

I did not imply the Liner helped either, or that the Illustrious fed in this particular case. Just that it's a ship known for doing so, and thus deserves all the bombers planted on it we can get.

And good lord, I didn't even bother to mention all the times where we had two or three snubcraft but faced half a dozen of your ships, including that Zephyr you like to bring out.

Or hell, that huge cluster[censored] in Leeds a day or two ago. Your pilots ended up happily helping out a force already twice our size.

The odds might not have been in your favor in this particular case, no. At least not during the entirety of the fight. But I don't like how you (plural) are trying to twist the facts so that it looks far more like a gank than it truly was.

Again, if people on your side die, that doesn't mean that the fight is suddenly a gank.

I'm sure that Rod is more than willing to talk, although seemingly leaving out facts, ooRPly "deceiving" (by abusing game glitches, no less) us so you can throw dirt in a feedback thread, and so forth, likely doesn't help your case.

Edit:

Looking at the chat log, we had five players, with a sixth arriving late (after you headed for the Freeport), by the way. The majority of the fight, and the part wherein you took the most losses, you had an equal number of opponents. One or two arrived later on to deal with the multiple capitals, that's true. You weren't really targeted though. In fact, you decided to stay right on my rear the entire time even though I was targeting the Illustrious. You could've just run off once 'all hope was lost'.

And another edit.

The more I read this, the less I understand it. Every time GRN goes into Magellan, we basically know that we're going to end up horribly outnumbered sooner or later. It's a given. We've accepted it. We go in, and if feces hits the fan, we can always try and make a run for it.

Nine out of ten fights I've seen that had 27th| involved, you either had a force matching us, a larger one, or were assisting one substantially larger than ours. This claim of "our new members don't like being outnumbered all the time" just doesn't match what I've seen ingame.

Now, I'm going to be brutally honest. You do seem to have a fair number of newer / less experienced members. You don't have very many players who are good at PvP. This is fine. But you're a PvP-oriented faction - as in, your primary goal is something along the lines of "shooting GRN" - if I'm not mistaken. It might feel like you're getting ganked because you're facing more experienced players (sometimes).

My advice would be to try and take a more relaxed attitude to losing. GRN loses a whole lot of engagements because there's so many factions that'll log on to shoot at us. Knowing this, we can do two things. Either we accept our fate and have fun regardless (my preferred option), or we complain about it even though it's unlikely to affect things in the long run.

Don't take this as an insult, please. Things may seem like a gank if you lose very rapidly / by a great margin even when the odds are near-equal because of difference in skill. That's simply how the game works.
