no issues then 
I'm just emptying a bottle of shiraz and talking
on the forums. been lurking for ages. There are not enough neutrals talking and god knows not enough AAA talking. I think y'all can benefit from other POV

Well boo....so much for having a drinking buddy.
You are probably looking for the Peglegged Parrot. Ask for Berta.
Is that the Bertha Cocktail? honey margarita?
As EDF was back to "reclaim" their system, no need for us to gain control their again. Taking over EEF was a test to see the relationship between Anarchy and superpower ships. By taking control and loosing it later on, we know what will happen in Carcosa. The Axis' goal for EEF is to retreat The Nameless from there. They are working on bringing LPV into the system to have 4 factions there to actually be able too. The Nameless having a high inf makes it harder for them to do. Now with another war triggered we can just gain another 10% easily again or maybe they help us out again.
Their goals were stated since the beginning of the conflict 9-10 months ago. Not here but in Colonia's diplomatic channels. Remove all Anarchy systems in Colonia and more important make Loren's Reapers leave Colonia by any means necessary. That were and are their objectives, just now they (SEPP, CIDE) got the help of SPEAR and some other big groups from the bubble.
All the retreats are meaningless in the big picture, we are not empire builders and couldn't care less about being present in these systems. The high-g planets are a killer of fun, but I did get my personal normal space speed record on one. So there's that. Working against the retreats once every week was to keep the Axis busy there and burn out some of their people, it worked splendid. [1]
We also know what their goals are for Carcosa, it's easy to read in the data even for somebody not in the know. In the long run they probably succeed in removing all Anarchy controlled systems in Colonia. You have to remember that the free Colonia citizens [2] are up against the largest bgs groups in the game. Not all of them are listed here.
You are right on the player driven community goal, and this is one of the reasons I joined the Reapers. It makes playing the game so much more fun and I'm sure the new FDev arc and our own will cross at some point.
And the silence is easy to explain. Just read some of the older threads on (SPEAR) actions and motives. They all ended once neutral CMDRs started questioning SPEARs actions and motives.
It's the one by the installation, not to be confused with the bar right next to the reactor shaft at Robardin Rock.
[1] You know that the Axis claimed a "big" victory in flipping Coma from Anarchy? Noteworthy is that Phisto was part of the group who flipped it to Anarchy in the first place against all odds. Newton's Fusiliers moved on to other things since then and SPEAR "won" against nobody opposing them. Another hollow "victory" for their mantel.
[2] Independent local CMDRs and many of the smaller groups who want to see Colonia not become the playground of the make-numbers-bigger groups. We suspect that some other bigger local groups are helping out too in Carcosa.

Spear, I can confirm he does. Plus I ganked an unarmed DBX. It was a teachable moment.Btw, SPEAR, i have notoriety 10,so that's in your domain, right? Just launching from the Rock, in open, on ps4.
Limpets in, time for some mats collecting
So your telling me they will create the "monster" they said we were?

That little white,pasty spot on the corner of your mouth after walking through the desert without water for three days.Lol
No, we are evolving
Survival of the fittest, right?! And if/when FDev repair instance problems, i see 2-3 full wings of ps4 Loren's Reapers spreading "peace & love" thru galaxy.
Future is bright
Edit: when that time comes, even I will buy carrieer for logistic purposes
Nice idea, but if flying around Menguru for 2 days turned up nothing, I doubt we'll see anything significant where we are.Btw, SPEAR, i have notoriety 10,so that's in your domain, right? Just launching from the Rock, in open, on ps4.

Generous of you to assume that they have women.

I would certainly hope so, it would be dreadful if the AAA were following orders, directions from spreadsheets and being forced to shoot their own players for bounties, wouldn't it?
Do you believe we are illiterate?
Obviously the assistance Jane provided was essential for them to progress in the very recent past, although a pretty reasonable 'long game' has been played over the last 10 months...
Of course - that is a splendid motive and goal... Obviously one in which they will fail, but I don't wish to dampen your enthusiasm too much.

Well, i have a 26mil cide bounty on my head for now.. Rearming, repairing, refueling, go...Nice idea, but if flying around Menguru for 2 days turned up nothing, I doubt we'll see anything significant where we are.
It is. They don't participate in forums or Discords where they are likely to be criticized. A great example of this is what happened in the CEI Discord: EN's reps brought in SPEAR reps (against protocol) then wilted like a flower when people didn't welcome them with open arms. EN intended to sponsor SPEAR for membership but soon decided against a vote.
We've had several dissenters in their group tell us they consider CEI a "toxic no go zone." This isn't the first time they've done this sort of thing.
They should speak up, then. It's their job to defend their position. No one else's.

As an outsider, its a war on many fronts with many battles and wins and losses. Neither side have declared clear 'win' scenarios, so its hard to measure. Both sides seem to be having fun, one side is almost certainly winning the propaganda war (see title of this thread) but they also support Cmdrs that would be considered gankers that could weaken this propaganda, both sides have gankers now I think but not sure if one side is faction targeted or system targeted though so could be argued if faction that alls fair in love and war and BGS and not 'ganking' per se,
Theres too many factions and acronyms lol I think I have most of them on the right side now at least.
Darnit! Ignore everything above
Indeed it is, as another outsider it does appear to be 'interestingly chaotic' at times.
From observation CIDE will continue their quest to landgrab systems to continue building their "City of God" (Which, as they are a Dictatorship does beggar the question who their perceived God is - perhaps their leader?) So no change there.
SPEAR, I'm entirely uncertain of - as the self-proclaimed "ATR" they don't seem to have much to do in Colonia, but obviously have their own agenda to remain, as time goes by we may become better acquainted with their hopes and aspirations.
The people of Colonia have shown a surprising level of support in the conflicts, even to a squadron with known 'gankers', so my guess is that label is of minor import to these people.
I have no idea of what the Reapers would consider a 'win' - but suspect it isn't the same outcome that those on the offensive consider it to be - of course I could be wildly wrong about this.
