That's pretty much the trade description for MMOs right there
Seriously though, why not start a war for no other reason than the sheer enjoyment of it? No alliance is so great it can't be defeated.

You are correct, it is quite telling. What it tells me is that if you insult most people, the thread gets closed, yet if you start up a threat to attack members of goonswarm, calling them racists and the like, it gets left open. Clearly the moderators are all anti-CFC. Thank you for pointing this out Dinsdale. The Indecisive Noob - EVE fan blog. Wholesale Trading - The new bulk trading mailing list.

How do you beat goons? Same way they beat everyone else; get them to stop logging in.

Robert Sawyer wrote:Ever since I've heard of EVE, the most terrifying tale is that of Goonswarm. After looking up their history, they had two Great Wars with an alliance called Band of Brothers, which was defeated. After that, CFC was born. They seem to have their roots in the Something Awful forums. I've paid a visit there and no post seems to make sense. All their content seems to be primarily composed of stupidity, racism and homophobia. Their fleet is also made out of reckless players that have no moral qualities whatsoever. So essentially you're saying Goons have tons of fun and you would give anything to join them?

CCP created them by doing two things.
1) Created a way to have unlimited people blue 2) Are unable to deliver a node capable of hosting x2 that many numbers
So, yah, we can kill goonswarm by blobbing them back for the entire 7 days it'll take for them to die off on paper, but in the game, we get Tidi before we're even 110th of the way there.
So, they live on and we just shake our heads at CCP and their sandbox. *signature is not allowed on the EVE Online forums* |

1,3,4. A combination of what's in my sig and the ultimate lust for money.
2. What player doesn't wish to exploit the game mechanics to their advantage?
5. Goons are like Hydra, cut off one head, two more take its place. Elite PVP - The use of huge blobs, capital ships, and metagaming to defeat a target you already significantly outnumbered. -masternerdguy |

Where'd you get the idea they're better than that? You said you saw the website. Does "SA" mean anything to you? How about (if it's still there) that nice comment about their founder in the upper left hand corner of the homepage?
Goons maintain what hold they have by myth, and brutally ganging up on people. (That's the "swarm" part.) They're not unbeatable. It's just that no one's gotten around to it yet. One of the reasons they didn't claim a significant part of space after the BoB incident is, they didn't do that alone. Alone, they aren't THAT big.

1. rest of us lack coordination.
2. they are not.
3. they are not.
4. because there are none left; save for goons.
5. Make highsec absolutely safe to play in and increase the ISK highsec players make by 100 times it current level. Guarantee that goons heads will explode in a panty bunching tizzy fit. Yawn,-á I'm right as usual. The predictability kinda gets boring really. |

Robert Sawyer wrote:...Who disagrees with Goonswarm and who doesn't? Meaningless question. Goons earned their place at the top of stagnant null by years of disciplined recruiting and play. I don't know enough about their world to say how much brilliance or panache was involved, but whatever it was, it was enough. Just a bit more tightly bound than the competition, with strategies and FCing just a bit better than anyone who went after sov. That's all it would have taken...that and a decade spent in the same damned MMO. How often does that happen?
CFC is pretty much the endgame of libertarian capitalism. One team was always going to become the biggest and baddest, and if the rules didn't restrict their economic and force projection, we would all be speaking Goon now. Or the language of whatever other bunch lasted that long.

But you aren't.
Every corp, every alliance in EVE can have a decimal chopped off if you want true active membership. Of course to scale that, you have a possible log in potential of 1100 and no other alliance can do half that so you still win. |
