Funny it's coming from a guy who was flying Battleship all the time. I still remember your attempts to pvp my lone merc sabre with Dirk being accompanied by Outcast snub near the stationed baf cap, yea, sure, hello.
But let's be honest - as I said - it's two edges sword. I, myself, was flying alone for most of my time duo to my time zone. When I'm playing Europe is still at work so not much of a company. So I'm speaking on behalf of my own.
Actually I left Sails because of the reason you mentioned - was trying to make them fight fair but was told that I'm not right. Well, okay - doesn't really matter now since Sails have died out successfully. The Bretland had some people I'v enjoyed to fight against - it was some BAF, MM~ and others. Old players mostly. However those people got pissed by the BAF majority and left - being part of the complete gank leaves a bad taste yn.
However I can also say that many people here different understandings of the term "gank" so I assume we're talking about the different matters.
For me fight is fair if equal amount of snubs is used against the equal amount of snubs. No matter the skill. But I see a lot of attempts of putting the "skill" as a balance param. Funny enough - it's stupid at best.
Good luck flying your battleship.

Your OORP hatred representation in 80% of the encounters with BAF| were more than enough to cut the string of understanding and totally put in a grave any possible good relations. Sadly you were not the only problem...I admit there were many things done by both sides...but you simply begun the circle of hatred.
WOW, and you think the respectful Bretonia factions have failed just at that moment? That is not correct for it started before you even came to the server - you've probably missed how it started and how it went ballistic. A lot of people was trying to play nice at Bretonia but gave up on being greeted with poor-arse attitude. The last attempt of changing things was done by Dieter but as I remember well he failed and trashed the idea down.
And then it's we are who sank the damn think. Sure thing. Every time I'll fight against BAF that don't want to fight unless have an overwhelming numbers, withbattleships to feed snubs if possible, against a couple of VHFs I'll remember your truly wise words that it's I am, personally, who forced the whole BAF to solarisdirk everyone around in Bretonia. What a real honor.
