Not really, it's a reason to be mad at TR again for incompetence. When NC command chat can see that TR is pushing a winning VS, it's advised that NC platoons attack the VS as well. Of course there will be 1-12 or 12-24 groups of NC doing their own thing, but it's the same with TR and I don't hold that against them.
It's when VS is winning, and I see one or two 48+ TR forces making my map blink up by Rashnu or Zurvan on their way to our last facility which we WILL defend against them successfully unless there is a big screwup that I wonder what kind of sorry state TR must be in right now, because they could split VS with us and one of us will end up with a facility. On top of that it's likely to be them if the VS are given a choice because at least that way everyone ties and NC doesn't win. Now that I think about it that wouldn't matter as much for this alert as it was covering all Amp stations and not Indar ones only, but it happens every time I can think of recently when it's similar situations in Indar only alerts where VS has TR's facility near the start of the alert. TR will make an attempt on the one on their border, give up, then conquer their way across of the continent against usually minor resistance for half the alert until NC redeploys once they get close and kicks them out and pushes them a few facilities back for a buffer zone while sacrificing offensive stopping/delaying facilities to Vanu like the Crown or Crossroads or one of those plateau bases you can't get vehicles into.
EDIT:
Any yells about Ginyu force are Goku being dicks to Goons and the NC in general. Goku is the splinter group off of Goon that happened before I joined Goon. I don't know what caused it but the two groups' leadership despise each other despite all being from Something Awful. Despite that the rank and file Goku are not disliked by Goon leadership, just a few of the leaders who the Goon leaders have hard feelings against (without knowing why I would say with good reason because it f'd up the server.) I don't know how much the average Goku wuvs the common Goon but the common and leadership Goons don't dislike the average Goku, annoyed is even too strong a word usually. If anything it's minor disappointment. To be honest I don't know the leaders of Goku myself so I don't have much of an opinion, but I do like winning against Goku more than any other outfit because they are the worst when they are winners. That said though I think the server would be better if the schism was mended and they played LWTX more often if not rejoin Goon, but they may have too many purple certs already.
Goon has over 2000 characters in it's outfit but now fields only 3 squads on a good night. At the start of the server the Goons were the balancing force of the server's NC side, and with the schism literally hundreds stopped playing PS2 according to what I've heard from other people. With the defection of Goku to VS it turned the server on it's head, and when they shout Ginyu Force they are gloating about it. It's also why when you see LWTX NC around, NC tend to do well. That's Goku's NC alts and the subtraction of a not-bad platoon which is then added to NC can turn the balance.
Ginyu Force Rules was yelled at one point by Goons before I joined. The period I joined was when Goon had become a shell of it's former self at barely a squad after the fall of Goondolin so to speak. It's making a slow comeback over a period of time to it's current size of an easy platoon when bolstered via public squad or about three squads of just Goons on a decent night with a full platoon on special nights.
You probably know this already since you are on the internet but Ginyu Force are Goku the character's antagonist in the cartoon at one point.
