I’m wondering…if everyone is starved for content and want to liven things up, then why don’t Goons and Test just… **not** blue each other and let the chips fall where they will? ---

I wouldn’t be surprised if those two were run by the same people, with a bunch of alts on either side. A secret surprise attack would be unlikely. ---

Dont be so sure, they have enough loyal players who can secretly move fleets on positions. ---

When player actions are your content sometimes you have to grease the gears to get the machine rolling. War has changed. It is now a tool used by the hyper affluent of EVE as a means of entertainment. Losses? What losses? People have played for years and have enough Plex in reserves to fund a war of attrition that would last just as long. War is now a social gathering, a sincere reflection of Valhalla as capsuleers cycle between feasting and combat in its own immortal cycle. ---

At this point, I think the EVE playerbase will jump at any opportunity for meaningful PVP content. This is why there is so much support and hype for both sides. TEST did the gentlemanly thing of announcing _the end of the nip_. They did not go into this announcing a war. Since the announcement, things have been escelated. I say bring the war on. Let the fights happen. The best memories in this game are created when you give players a reason to fight, with the tools and political landscape to do so. No other game on the market compares to EVE with the feelings of laugher or dread caused by a major conflict. People need to quit complaining and enjoy the ride. ---
