As I pointed out to somebody else ingame, I-RED takes great pains to avoid strongarm tactics other smaller Caldari corps. At least under my guidance, we have made an effort to avoid that sort of activity. We tend to play gentle with all RP groups that are smaller than us, but make a special effort to forgive Caldari groups.
Granted, a lot of this is an effort to shake off some of the 'traitor to the State' reputation we seem to have picked up over the years. However, it's also because a lot of smaller corps tend to avoid anything more than smacktalk with us. We're being gentle to encourage people to play with us, instead of hiding on the other side of the playground because we're two feet taller than all the other kids.
Yes we're big, yes we can fight, yes we have lots of ISK. No, that doesn't mean we're going to make it unfun for you if you just want to do some RP conflict play with us.
EDIT: This doesn't mean we're going to meet you in frigates if you come reinforce one of our towers. If you become a threat, we'll treat you like one.
