Transcript with United Freemen Alliance [UFA]
Gendril (UFA XO / CEO PURIFY)
Posted 3-7-2009
Transcript follows:

Reporter: Mr. Gendril, it's nice to meet you.

Gendril: Yes it is isn't it.

Reporter: Er, let's get down to business. Tell me about you and your alliance.

Gendril: Gladly. I'm UFA XO. Now some people think that means I'm the top dog and commander of a huge big bloated space alliance and there's lots of truth to that, but really XO just means a Kiss and Hug. Would you like one? You look sharp in that suit.

Reporter: Um, I'm quite straight thanks.

Gendril: Well if you are tempted just keep in mind that I have tech 2 pleasure implants.

Reporter: I'll take a note. Let's refocus here. Is that it for your positions?

Gendril: Well aside from being the top dog you mean? Ho ho. Let's see, I'm also the CEO of Purify. It's sort of an actors guild who like to fly spaceships and say “zap zap” all the time.

Reporter: Zap zap?

Gendril: Yeah, it's so much safer to say zap zap than to actually zap zap.

Reporter: Well about that UFA advertises itself as some sort of force against pirates and aggressors in Eve.

Gendril: Yes.

Reporter: Well doesn't that involve some fighting?

Gendril: I suppose we have to field a force from time to time. But listen, it's so much more important to have a good marketing campaign. Do you think we could become a huge big bloated space alliance without a good PR department? Ha! Come on. We have what, 35 separate corporations. We rock! And I'm top dog.

Reporter: Well let's talk about Pod Liberation Authority. They declared war against you and they have what, like 5 active members and have been in existence for something like a week or two.

Gendril: Exactly. They are tiny and we are huge big and bloated. So we are winning.

Reporter: I don't understand. This small deadly corporation is gutting you folks and serving you up like cold sushi fed to cats and rodents.

Gendril: Whoa whoa! Stop right there. Did I mention that we are big? And they are small?

Reporter: Yes.

Gendril: So we are winning. Ipso facto. Ergo. Matzah ball.

Reporter. Um, ah, never mind. Well look, you say are some defender of trade in Eve but where does the rubber meet the road? Pod Liberation Authority is pulverizing your forces.

Gendril: I don't know anything about that and, if I did, I deny it.

Reporter: Well UFA seems to be in denial. According to UFA's public records, http://www.unitedfreemen.net/ufakb1/ Pod Liberation Authority has had 41 kills and 19 losses. But according to API verified sources, the actual number is far far worse for you. It's more like 80 kills and 19 losses for PODLA. Take a look at http://podla.griefwatch.net/?p=main Does UFA need to lie?

Gendril: You talk about facts and truth like numbers. You need to understand something son, as top kisser and hugger, the XO I mean, I get to make truth. And you know what truth is? It's not some number or true facts, it's belief! If we believe something then it's true.

Reporter: But Pod Liberation Authority is gutting you!

Gendril: You are not listening to me. Look, have you seen our logo? It's polished artwork. It's a fierce lion with sharp claws. What does Pod Liberation Authority have? I laugh at their art department. They suck. When our members come to work, they see the lion and feel good about themselves. Again, it's all about belief.

Reporter: So you are winning the war because you have a better art department?

Gendril: Yes! Look, Pod Liberation Authority might scare us silly, and they might cut us to pieces, but at the end of the day we have our Lion logo and 35 corporations. What do they have? Maybe an accurate kill board. But they will never have XO in their title! I rock.

moved to recruitment. if we had a slander forum it could go there, but (unfortunately) we don't.

but i should suggest that to the CSM, an entire subforum, that's all devoted to slander. like caod with no battle reports.

Slander is spoken. Perhaps the term you are looking for is libel. Regardless, this is a parody of a fictional character in a fictional world. Chill.

Leave it to an ex executive outcomes to try and pee on the party cake.


UFA is big.. but for the most part.. bloody brutal at doing anything but blobbing.. oh wait.. now I see why this dork is whinging...

UFA are friendly with goons. Goons never tell the truth.. ergo.. UFA feels like they should emulate their big brother.

The PODLA Kb has the kills.. and so does battleclinic. UFA is simply trying to fool their own membership into thinking they are not as mega phail as they are.

I'd like to weigh in and confirm that the UFA are really incredibly bad at this game.
Also - this probably should be in C&P.

I agree that it should be in C&P. Seems a better place for it. I posted it here because, a long time ago, I posted another fake news story and it was moved by the moderators to this area. So in keeping with that decision I plopped it here. Looking back on it I suppose that was not the right decision.

And if anyone likes the humor here check out the visual humor on our KB poking fun at UFA. A handful are there and I promise to make more in the near future. http://podla.griefwatch.net/?p=gallery#id=images&num=8

Neither libel or slander or funny.

Essentially a bit of chest-beating with some whining about KB inaccuracies.

And yeah it should be in C&P.

"Neither" is properly paired with "nor" and whining is a form of complaining which was not present in the parody above. It's more of a sly recruiting move actually. Thank you for the feedback.

Not very sly either, being rather transparent.

You could also have pointed out that strictly speaking, I shouldn't have used more than two items in conjunction with 'neither'.

As my excuse, I would offer that I was wholly underwhelmed by a parody that hit new literary heights in "Zap, zap" and am unused to such strict grammatical standards here.

The intent of a parody being critical imitation of a slightly humourous (very slight in this case) even ridiculous nature, the charge of 'whining' stands.

We put a whole lot of effort into beating you back, didn't we? Hardly
Imho, if pilots are stupid in empire and get killed... Fair enough, as far as KB inaccuracies, alot of our "empire creatures" dont post kills/losses at all, and that can't be helped, we'll get APi verification some day (I want it badly personally).

Oh and funneh comics, I like them =) I'll put you in the art/propaganda department, if your application to join our alliance get's approved, I heard you had been trying =)

I think what your trying to say is size does not matter, I'm afraid I'll have to disagree.

Smile Thanks Gendril. Obviously you know it's all in good fun. Some forum rats take this sort of thing all too seriously. Now I know that I've earned payback from you and UFA and I'll take it as gracefully as you have. And enjoy those implants. Smile

Wow. Nice little bit of ego stoking here; an imaginary conversation designed to convey one side of a private war, few of us actually care about.

Nice work. This should likely be kept in the proper forums CAOD.
