Internet drama episode 2

Yes folks, its that time again. Eve politics is on the horizon for the current post. We've had a fissure within our ranks, a pruning of sorts. I'll start with a little backstory.

Our alliance was founded on the principles of pirating. Now most would expect only active, contributing, PvP corps to join this. And for the most part this is true)*. But as our alliance grew, so did the undeseriables. These 'undeseriables' come in the forms of a horrific beast, so terrifying it causes people to blow chunks the moment they hear the word coming out of another mouth;

Carebears.

Ok, I understand that these guys are needed for the Eve-conomy to work. Hell, I was one for most of my eve career. But they're boring, never want to do anything that involves losing money (other than paying for a game to sit in a ship mining). Anyhoo, these guys are fun to explode. Not so fun when they never want to make other people explode.

There is another type of player that gets on my nerves; the AFKer. Sure by themselves they're fine. But when your alliance is full of them, not so much.

So, it seems that we're doing some pruning of our stocks here. Kiradax, a well respected (rightfully so) fleet commander is planning to leave the alliance and start his own. The reformed voted unanomously to follow suite. Only time will tell gentlemen. Only time will tell.

Also, I had a really nice pizza, and got my manticore running! Screen's otw.

*- The reformed usually forms about 70% of a fleet at any given time...
