I have read this Thread with interest (I generally only play in the 2 Houses that are involved in this conflict).
I was not involved on either side, but did watch from halfway through the 3rd part and the whole of the 4th part.
Not everyone who sided on the Bretonian's behalf want to 'delete Gallia', but possibly don't want to see Bretonia 'burn'.
Likewise not everyone who sided with Gallia want to see Bretonia 'burn'.
The allowance of the 'Freelancers' to participate in the 1st part could be seen as the 'Dunkirk spirit' that was seen in WWII when Britain's back was against the Wall.
Any Event that allows the Players to decide the outcome will always become 'one-sided'. This has to become an accepted fact, as one side will always have a bigger 'Player Base' than the other/better PvPers than the other or a mixture of both.
For all the 'we were ganked by 3 vs 1 or any other such number', looking at Durandal's Post, whether you call it a 'Win' for Gallia or a 'Draw', it shows that the outnumbering really didn't make much of a difference other than if the sides had been equal, it would probably have been a complete whitewash for the Gallic side.
On both sides, there was some that were using the 'must win at all costs' strategy.
I find it strange that there appear to be a lot of Gallic/Corsair Player's that are complaining about how 'unfair' it was, even though the Results appear to show otherwise. If there is so much invested interest in seeing Gallia 'win' how come Gallia is the Ghost Town it is?
I feel that the biggest problem here is, that people forget that this is a Game which is supposed to be played for fun. That people take it too seriously is the reason why we have so much 'hatred' at times.
We have a mixed Player Base, some that live for PvP, whether in Caps or Snubs, others like the Trading (not necessarily to make money for 'Big Ships'), some come here to Chat and relax. Each of you have your reasons, for being here, just learn to accept that your way, of seeing things, isn't necessarily the way others see it.
EDIT: Also, throughout the Event 1/3 of the Players, on the Server, appeared not to have a vested interest in being involved in the Conflict.
'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
