I would say it doesnt matter at all... When an alliance grows too big, it wil at some point fail, and havent seen Goonswarm around my area for over a year now, so I dont really have a feeling they control much of EVE anyway.

You must be talking about that game where the only "meaningful" pvp happens in instances with capped numbers.
Yeah, your point is just so spot on...

I will admit that hearing about giant wars involving BOB is what got me into this game. But since I have joined my only contact with bob was getting a ship bowled out of a POS (the day before it was declared an exploit ) and my only meeting with a goon was watching one of them suicide some poor miner.
So I can say that these huge alliances only really matter to other people in huge alliances, so I don't really care what ether of them do. It makes for good reading on the forums though.

Yeah, our space dramas are pretty funny and entertaining but I cant imagine it really having much affect on how the majority of EvE plays the game, and I'm cool with that.
Different strokes and all that.
By the way, that goon who suicided that poor miner is a hero to us all.

In both EvE and WoW you have a bunch of SERIOS arrogant egoistic asshats. They like to pretend that they're better than you at flying internet spaceships/killing internet orcs and generally take the game way too SERIOSly. Both TAFKAB and the OP fall into this category.
Now let's go over methods of possible lulz extraction from these nerds in both games:
In WoW, you can beat them in duels/arena, maybe steal their spawn, maybe get farther in 'PvE Progression' (OLOLOLOL I CAN DO MORE DAMAGE THAN YOU AGAINST A MAGICAL DRAGON).
In EvE, you can take everything they own. Their ships, their alliance name, their territory. Then you can invade with your pals (who they consider 'n00b children') and completely wipe them off the map. You can watch their egos crumble as they desperately try to control the damage on the forums.
Personally, I prefer EvE. Judging by your name/spelling/number of 'z's appended to your name, you might like WoW better (or you're a good troll). To each their own.
Enjoy your elitism until someone notices you and decides it deserves a strong kick in the nuts.

Missing punctuation.
Quote: personally

Quote: i
"I" should be upper-case.
Quote: think Goonswarm are just a bunch of kids, arragont
"arrogant"
Quote: n
"and"
Quote: stupid, but you add that with 5k in numbers you give the rest of EVE a problem
Poor grammar. Try "...numbers and you will give..."
Quote: Now with this stupid sov
"sov" should have a full stop as it is an abbreviation of "sovereignty"
Quote: thingy
Not a real word, but may be permissible as a colloquialism or slang
Quote: and there
"there" denotes location. You wanted "their", which denotes ownership.
Quote: constant posts does anyone feel like this is turning into a wow pvp
Both "WOW" and "PVP" are acronyms and should therefore should be in upper-case (and possibly with full stops after every word, depending on what rules of grammar you are following). Quote: server where the msot amount fo online children win?
Spelling mistakes: "most" and "of". Also, "on-line" should be hyphenated.
Quote: discuss
Upper-case "D" missing, punctuation missing.
You know, for someone complaining about "a bunch of kids" taking over EVE, your grammar is remarkably similar to someone not yet old enough to have completed their schooling.

Please get your facts straight.
Actually, there are over 1 million subscribers to the Something Awful forums, and roughly 15,000 goons "playing Eve", in one shape or another. Of which, 3,000 are our dedicated scamming members not within GF. Basically those Jita scams - mostly all goons. These goons generate the majority of corp income. 5,000 are corp spies with no GF history, spread out across every major corporation/alliance in Eve. Going back years. 1,000 more (the lobby crew) keep us up to date on the latest games and insult anyone dumb enough to enter our Teamspeak. 1,000 more are present on our forums and EVE-O forums, ensuring quality assurance on our posts.
After that, about 5,000 of us are actually playing Eve.

I know the goonies mentality is hard for a lot of people to fathom, especially some of the older players but here let me break it down for you.
Goons are basically at there core predominantly a group of North American players who are Generation X / Wired Generation age range. They were the kids back in your school who sat in the back of the class and drew pictures of there fat teacher naked and giggled. They were the kids who would pick there nose and eat it for a quarter in elementary. In the internet age there the adults / young adults those kids grew up to be. Now there the guys who surf the internet for disturbing **** and get there giggles by being mock racists or from any topic/action they think can push your buttons of moral outrage or from causing mayhem online to compensate for perceived slights in there childhood.
I'm sure not all the goon membership fits the above description. The majority are coat tail riders or the disenfranchised who joined with a grudge (probably mostly against bob) hoping to have some kind of victory in the business of internet spaceships that they had never experienced before. Some ofc are there for the "lulz", some are there to experience the ego boosting feeling of p33n power they get by being worshiped as internet spaceship serious business heroes by the goon masses. Some are script kiddies who like to find a hack, some are just noobs along for the ride.
There common link originally was the somethingawful forums, a pay forum board community for ppl to join that mainly served as a jump point for online community building for a group of like minded people in one way or another.
Now the real interesting thing is none of the above was a flame or smack and that most of the older goonies deep down cant dispute it as a factual representation of them

But since I have joined my only contact with bob was getting a ship bowled out of a POS (the day before it was declared an exploit ) and my only meeting with a goon was watching one of them suicide some poor miner.
So I can say that these huge alliances only really matter to other people in huge alliances, so I don't really care what ether of them do. It makes for good reading on the forums though.
only worthwhile post in this ****ty thread.

I think eve is sorta turning to WoW, but only cause carebears are getting there way over pvp. I think the war between goons and bob/ken is one of the greatest things to happen in eve online. I only come to caod to read about them. What really hurts me about eve is the fact a freighters can just Ctrl-Q warp and vanish from scan within seconds getting out of any situation even if it's scrammed by 10 hic's. Now that is eve of warcraft that hurts the most!

Originally by: Ria Sotori I know the goonies mentality is hard for a lot of people to fathom, especially some of the older players but here let me break it down for you.
Goons are basically at there core predominantly a group of North American players who are Generation X / Wired Generation age range. They were the kids back in your school who sat in the back of the class and drew pictures of there fat teacher naked and giggled. They were the kids who would pick there nose and eat it for a quarter in elementary. In the internet age there the adults / young adults those kids grew up to be. Now there the guys who surf the internet for disturbing **** and get there giggles by being mock racists or from any topic/action they think can push your buttons of moral outrage or from causing mayhem online to compensate for perceived slights in there childhood.
I'm sure not all the goon membership fits the above description. The majority are coat tail riders or the disenfranchised who joined with a grudge (probably mostly against bob) hoping to have some kind of victory in the business of internet spaceships that they had never experienced before. Some ofc are there for the "lulz", some are there to experience the ego boosting feeling of p33n power they get by being worshiped as internet spaceship serious business heroes by the goon masses. Some are script kiddies who like to find a hack, some are just noobs along for the ride.
There common link originally was the somethingawful forums, a pay forum board community for ppl to join that mainly served as a jump point for online community building for a group of like minded people in one way or another.
Now the real interesting thing is none of the above was a flame or smack and that most of the older goonies deep down cant dispute it as a factual representation of them
Who can dispute this? this is the exact and pristine truth, put in CAOD for all the world to see.

Last time I checked no members of GoonSwarm were employed as designers or programmers at Funcom during the development of Age of Conan.

Originally by: Grunanca I would say it doesnt matter at all... When an alliance grows too big, it wil at some point fail, and havent seen Goonswarm around my area for over a year now, so I dont really have a feeling they control much of EVE anyway.
Confirming this.

Originally by: Evocationz Just a quick observation
personally i think Goonswarm are just a bunch of kids, arragont n stupid, but you add that with 5k in numbers you give the rest of EVE a problem
Now with this stupid sov thingy and there constant posts does anyone feel like this is turning into a wow pvp server where the msot amount fo online children win?
discuss
Interesting. The fact that you you can't spell 'and', 'most', or even use punctuation has nothing to do with EVE feeling like a wow pvp server. Yet, when goons insult the crap out of Kenny, it does?
