Its not deranged imaginings. Its Akuma continuing his faction bashing here in a balance thread. He has always had problems with factions vs indies, so he tries to bash them whenever he can. No faction got an unfair capship just because the leader wanted it. IGISS dictates how a ship is. If its too powerful, he says so and reduces turrets, power, etc to what it needs to be. Faction leaders don't choose how powerful a ship it, Igiss decides that. Akuma should be blaming Igiss if he wants to blame anybody, but there is no one to blame. The game is never going to be perfect. EVE has dozens of people working on balance in the game, and even they make mistakes. (nano-HACs anyone?) We had 1 person on balance up till now, where we have more. That one person is Igiss, and even though he is a spectacular mod maker, he isn't perfect, and just like any other human, he makes mistakes. Since he can't test each version for a year, he doesn't know if balance will be perfect. No matter what the game is, balance can never be perfect, so there is no reason to lay blame when it is not needed.
There is simply the rebalancing of what needs it. Blame has no place here, logical and clear thinking does.
