We come in with two people at first. Naturally, you find us with four and engage.
More of us appear. There were five in total in the end. More of yours appeared, eight fighters on your side engage.
Despite you having the number advantage, you shieldrun your way to Planet New London and try to fight us in orbit. This is five versus eight and the planetary defences/NPCs/bases.
You call in two solaris gunboats against five fighters, while you have eight already engaging. The cherry on top is a battleship that began sniping fighters.
Many of your members often say they encourage fairplay and complain that they didn't receive enough. This is demotivating people from bothering to log.
Please explain your hypocrisy. Don't use the excuse "but ur aces!!" as only two of our five could actually deal damage to your fighters. Those that got damaged went away to restock.
As the Leader of BPA), let me respond to this original (it seems to be the first feedback in 18 months) Post.
There is no need to hijack (and I noticed the pun) this Thread. We are happy to receive Feedback, good and bad.

I am very interested in this statement, because, as far as I am aware, most of the Members of BPA) do not post in other Feedback Threads.
The Members consist of:
Myself
Pulha - 2 i/c
*Omicega - Logs once every blue moon
*Jack - Logs a bit more frequent that Omi, but is rather infrequent
*Legionaire - joined yesterday
*Shaggy - joined 2 days ago
*Saurissimo - tends to be fairly inactive
Smokey
Ayman
Homeros
And a few others that may log once in a while.
Now those 'many' of the Members, without the asterisk (*) tend to be the more active Members. What they lack in PvP skills, they more than make up for in their enthusiasm. We do tend to die a lot, but we try our best.

I would like to understand where this comes from, because I think I have explained that above. I would suggest that you aimed this 'Feedback' at certain people and not at BPA) as a whole. If so, please make your feelings known in a more constructive manner or even take it to pms/Skype/TS.
As for whether you had PvP Aces or not, quite possibly 1 or 2 of your people could have quite easily 'wiped the floor' with the more active Members of BPA).
Quote:Nobody currently good at snub PvP got there by being defeatist and just throwing huge numbers of snubs, capitals and gunboats at small groups to win (and to ensure the other side has no fun at all and will be bitter, and likely try to take revenge in the future). They just accepted that you lose sometimes. More people should consider adopting that attitude.
No, I am not condoning this, and on behalf of my Members, I apologise, if this is what happened. In their defence, when I am in a fight, I become very focused, to the extent I don't read messages as they appear on the screen, as I am generally trying to stay alive (I don't even type and fight, as I die even quicker whenever I try, if that is possible).
Haste - In all the years you have known me, my ability to shoot open space has never improved, is a skill that I mastered very quickly and something I excel in.
'I would like to be half as clever as some people like to believe they are' Life is full of disappointments, it is how we handle them that helps to define us, as a person
