I know it, you got me once, before plate buffer were introduced… in Uedama…  
I still remember that…

Great, you showed CSM that wanted Marauder nerfs, that’s not what I understood you to say. I thought you were saying that they did want to buff them, not nerf.

I’ve survived against them now in an active fit. Besides that, I’ve yet to see a marauder death that has them travel fit.

Yeah, apparently it needed just one bad CSM actor, to repeal the Marauder safety act that tooks years to advance, and it then disappeared. NOT SO EASY SEARCHING for the CSM proposal, or personal careers archives/achievements&programs taken.

The gankers awaits your return from the mission at the opposite gate end, so Marauder pilots don’t get to refit when going out for a mission only. It would take A: A viable docking station where to store your travel fit.  
B: A Mobile re-fit unit with all the travel fit, that take cargo space, and time wasted IN A SAFE SPOT.  
In both cases, a huge waste of time for simple system [1-2] ops. AND IRRELEVANT to the thread, once again.  
If on the other hand, You think to be able to make a research for when the Safety Marauder act was passed, CSM involved, etc, kudos to you.

The Marauder Safety Act was legislated by corrupt individuals, and only the Ganker Safety Act can be trusted to advance our galactic civilization!

Yeah, Next thing we know we will need SuperCarriers to run C5 sites or LV5 Agents, as clearly  
Marauders are not meant to get its hand dirty…

You laugh at this? this show of how EvE has fallen? That the once great Marauder hunter Aiko Danuja has been reduced to hunting MTU?

For shame.

So what was the problem in low-sec in the beginning?  
People were starved of Moros?  
Couldn’t Afford to fly them anymore?  
That a bunch of Marauders could swipe through all known space without ever being defeated???

If that is so, it’s Marauders being overpowered OR the costs for building MOROS and other Capital ships skyrocketing and Fleet and corps being unable to recup all the losses, and simply decided to switch to Marauders too to even the fight?

Not even that?

Every tantrum being thrown against the Buffered Marauders is just that. A Tantrum.

Dreads cannot go through acceleration gates, they also cannot go through wormholes. Dreads cannot go into highsec, where war deck aggressors were using marauder fleets to guarantee a win. There was no way a subcap fleet could counter a marauder fleet, hence all the nerfs.

Dreads can be counters by a subcap fleet already, no need to use marauders that would only get obliterated by any dread weapon.

And your obsession about Marauders that should be UberPwnM0biles is just that. An Obsession.

They have their niche in which they are _exceptionally good_ and they actually _are used_ _for multiple purposes_. Every day. Yet the only ones complaining - as usual - are some HighSec dwellers being “afraid of gankers”. So funny.
