Well, like i said. Research requires bodies when you are doing something truly economy impacting.
It is also nice to have just secured the western Oxytopes. So others cannot do the same to us.
It is really nice to be sitting on over a billion isotopes myself.
Goons billions more.
It is like sodomizing a huge conga line of industries out there on a bed of sweet sweet ISK.

Didn't you know that you are already a Staff-Writer for TMC.com? You're a Goon, therefore you're already in. They only discriminate against Non-Goons, like Grath, Alekseyev Karrde, and Marlona Sky. |

You have a lot to learn about the mysteries of shampoo.
I recommend you buy a lot of isotopes, the wisdom of generations of shiny headed individuals can be found therein |

Look at the goons gangbang against whoever is not fully aligned with them: that's what I was meaning earlier when I told Mynna that "freedom of speech" is not their forte. You should apologize for the possible intellectual property theft (but notice: I am fine with my stuff being published, just not with *these forum posters* ( not Mittani.com's) when confronted with reality) but no, arrogance and strongarming is your way even for RL matters.

Tell us more about how you not following the procedure for becoming a writer is our fault, and how telling you what the requirements are is "us looking dumb" because the guy used a quote from 2013 to describe a process which hasn't changed substantially since when the site was launched. And please, tell us more about multiple people telling you this fact is "blobbing".
You must just adore public debates, with that line of logic. Cyno's lit, bridge is up, but one pilot won't be jumping home.

Considering the FW exploit has been fixed (so no need to write about it any more) and that the price action article covers whatever I'd want to say there quite well, I'd not feel to write anything else. Thank you for your care though.

Hi,
Not sure how I got into Goonswarm. It must have been through a sponsorship, because I'm obviously some sort of pubbie spy (SUAS called it first!).
But since I'm here AND I'm such a sperg, LMGTFY. Perhaps we can diagnose your reading problems.

If this were the Goonfleet forums, I'd highlight them with frogsirens. But, this will have to do for your apparent reading comprehension problems. We do our best to aid the disadvantaged.
I would include a witty insult, but since I'm quoting stuff anyway, I'll just leave it to The Mittani. It will be done in italics because apparently there AREN'T ENOUGH QUOTES TO MEASURE YOUR READING COMPREHENSION LEVEL:
...we reject four out of five Eve contributor applications because our beloved playerbase seems to be populated by howler monkeys who nevertheless consider themselves superior to Shakespeare.
Cough cough the summer 2012 expansion update comes before your quotes...
But anyway let's see the use-case of a random guy who goes to send an article on the website, usually after reading a link provided by an EvE forum post.
- He reads the article.
- After reading it, he may click a bit around, expecially the News section (duh).
- Despite the many articles in News, he does not see anything promptly visible about restrictions on contributing to the site. Look right now, 27 articles, no mention, despite the last request for editors is recent.
- Not having seen such specific rules anywhere, he does not immediately think: "look, go back whatever amount of pages till you find the rules".
- If he wants to send an article and does not see rules he will act like any perspective article writer would do: search for an About or Contact Us page and check them out.
- Staff, is a list with no mention about rules or anything. Next.
- About shows a lot of information: in "The Future" section the guy may read a general blurb about contributing: "Contact us via the site and weGÇÖll discuss your break into gaming journalism!"
- Last - and also pushed by the above paragraph - comes the "Contact Us" link. It says: "Please use this form to submit inquiries, story ideas, intel, or suggestions for site improvements to our staff."
So what would a normal person do when finding a form that may be filled and whose description says "Please use this form to submit inquiries, story ideas, intel, or suggestions for site improvements to our staff"?
He fills the form with some data about him and about his perspective article.
I hope you may spot the use case and how it worked for me.

My... I hope you get over that cough. You're obviously sick with something.
This is the launch post for Themittani.com: http://themittani.com/features/welcome-themittanicom
It was posted on August 13th, 2012. Furthermore, the Wayback Machine provides an archive of the website dating on August 17th, 2012:
http://web.archive.org/web/20120715000000*/http://www.themittani.com
It's amazing. You must have read the website in the past through a time machine looking into the future. I've heard that the radiation from Time Machines can cause all sorts of illnesses. Perhaps if you laid back on using your time machine, you might get over that cough of yours.
My condolences. |

That's a wonderful idea! Following up with TMC is exactly what you should do. Using this action in the past while looking from your time machine to the future would have helped you greatly at getting published at TMC in the first place, I'm sure. But you're a Time Traveller, so you already know that. I apologize for repeating things that you already know... I'm just not in the habit of thinking fourth dimensionally.
And no no, I appreciate your relatively constructive criticism on the application process. There's some great ideas there. But I was keeping on point with my original post where I did some of my own special "investigate journalism" concerning your hostile claims of the fine folk at TMC. I mean, at least as hostile as I was.
But anyhow... those suggestions are really something to submit for the TMC folks. I'm not staff for TMC, so I couldn't tell you what they'd do with your suggestion, but who knows, perhaps they'll take it to heart. They do keep putting out more calls for writers, after all.
Good luck! |

Like, "I lost the argument because I was outnumbered" isn't even a thing what is wrong with you. "Do not touch anything unnecessarily.

As in - if you write an opinion piece it would literally be you vs the entire readership, which as has been pointed out is a few hundred 1000 now.
Surely you wouldn't want to write anything because you would just be blobbed? "Do not touch anything unnecessarily.

There really should be some form of thread icon to state whether a thread has anything of relevance or is nothing more than just a troll filled, blob infested, mind numbing ramblings of people who take this game so seriously ... maybe a bloated bee wearing a horned tin foil hat
Prices will rise until 2 things have been acheived the price level that is required to meet the expectations of those causing said rise (yes a no brainer that one) and until the content that the interdiction provides is no longer enough to keep the masses amused within the Goon Nation.
