Once again, a couple of our larger guilds have gone completely fucking overkill with conquest and caused one of our smaller guilds to lose. This has been a problem for awhile now -- even though officers are constantly reminding people not to do this -- so it's time we got our shit together.
First, let's review how this previous week went since it's a perfect example of the problem. Take a look at the insane leads that some of our 1st place guilds have, then look at how far Pub 2 was from hitting 1st place. This is the type of math you learn in elementary school so the issue should be pretty obvious to everyone.

It would've took just 15% (yes, only FIFTEEN PERCENT) of those wasted points to claim a victory for Pub 2. However, many guildies chose to ignore Pub 2 and instead earned completely unnecessary conquest points in guilds that do NOT need them -- as usual. Why does Imp 1 need a 5 million point lead? Winning by 1 point is the same as winning by 100,000,000,000 points, so I don't understand this logic. Any guildie that wanted to get their Makeb conqueror title is shit out of luck because selfish/lazy/ignorant guildies can't put a tiny percentage of their point income towards a guild that truly needs it.
This is completely unacceptable. You should ALL care about your fellow guild members and you should ALL care about the guild as whole. We are literally the most dominant conquest guild in the entire world and we've conquered more planets in the last month than 99.99% of guilds will conquer in their entire lifetimes. When you reach this point, nothing but 1st place is good enough. We don't invade just to get on the leaderboard, we invade to win. Period. No exceptions. If a BBB guild is on a planet then we are going to WIN that planet.
So how are we going to solve this issue? I don't even know. I've increased the conquest contest rewards by a fucking crazy amount of money and even reworked the entire contest system. Anyone that enjoys making easy credits could've moved toons to BBB Pub 2 last week and made a fuckin killing off of the conquest contests, while simultaneously getting BBB Pub 2 into 1st place. Win-win scenario.
I've also got an entire team of staff members and officers reminding you all to add/move toons to guilds where points are needed most, but only a small fraction of players think they need to obey commands from management. Ranks exist for a reason, so when these guys with Mafioso/Capo/Underboss titles tell you to do something, you need to listen. If they're giving out orders then there's a very good chance those orders came directly from me. When I ask you guys to do shit, you tend to listen, so why not listen to the rest of the staff team too? It's essentially the same thing.
Just to clarify: I'm not telling anyone that they're not allowed to get certain titles on certain weeks. Need a title from one of our BBBs even though it already has an insane points lead? That's perfectly fine, we WANT you to get your titles. Simply hit your conquest goal with 1 toon, then afterwards you can work on helping another BBB with a different toon. It's that easy.
My main issue is with those of you that already have Galaxy Conqueror title but refuse to move your fucking toons around. You guys can't even get anymore titles from this so you have absolutely no excuse for blowing your entire load on a guild that doesn't need it. It's disgustingly selfish and a big fat "fuck you" to your fellow guildies who do NOT have Galaxy Conqueror yet. How would you guys feel if you needed a certain conqueror title but couldn't get it because your careless guildies would rather waste points on guilds that are already guaranteed to win? The only reason you BBB veterans got those titles as quickly as you did is because of the old invasion polls where I let you vote on what to invade. How would you have felt if I had just been a selfish prick and invaded whatever I needed for my own Galaxy Conqueror title, while ignoring everything you guys needed?
This all seems so stupidly easy to understand which makes me that much more frustrated. Our biggest competition is ourselves and that makes no goddamn sense at all. PLEASE let this message get through to you so this shit can finally stop. All you need to do is add/move toons to whatever guild needs the most points. With our BBB channel it is ridiculously easy to do so -- just type "/cjoin bbb" to join the channel then say "inv to pub 2" or whatever guild you need an invite to. Better yet, just choose a main toon for each of our guilds so you never have to worry about adding/moving. It's not hard.
TL;DR: Stop wasting conquest points and fucking over your guildies who need titles.

- BBB Imp 1, Imp 2, Imp 3, and Pub 1 have a combined lead over the 2nd place spots that adds up to a total of 8,789,972 wasted conquest points.
- BBB Pub 2 just needed 1,339,538 conquest points to get from 8th place to 1st place.
