Im not sure "hate" is the word.
But in game you treat them as people you hate - or you end up getting podded/screwed/scammed by them.
Wherever you went - Here you are.

Welp.
First it started with BoB. Vee are ooober vee are elite vee are better than yooou. You know the type.
Then a new alliance came along based on the concept of paying $10 a month for forum access, basically paying to be a member. Having 6000 members means you can pretty much bulldoze anybody you want, if only by lagging them out of the game.
Replace "We're better than you" with "What do you know you stupid pubbie."
What do I know? I know I wouldn't pay $10 a month to join an alliance
You know somewhere there's a "king goon" collecting his $60,000 a month and laughing all the way to the bank, while another goon is walking to his job at McDonalds to pay his forum fee to keep being a goon.
Meanwhile what do you think some alliances are doing with their dyspro moons? Raking in the moolah and selling the isk at wholesale prices to isk sellers, who then resell it to regular players.
The other %90 of the players aren't even aware, they think they're playing a game when in fact they're being used as meatshields to protect the isk farmers' dyspro moon income.

Its hard to hate anyone in a computer game unless you have 'difficulties' differentiating reality from 'pixels'.
Only person I've ever been truly upset with in this game is myself.
However, many have made me laugh in this game. Some of them Goons

bitter bob/ken/ASSCAKE tears nom nom nom.
I'm pretty sure -a- have done some things that are banned from being said on the forums from some reason and I'm also pretty sure the $10 fee for goons is a once only as a way to keep the owner of the site/forums from crying about server fees and such.
Your confusing the goons with the russians fyi.

Because even though they claim not to they treat internet spaceships as even more serious business than anyone else.

Edited by: Sidus Isaacs on 23/03/2009 01:42:24 Goons play it like its their life. If that is what they want, fine.
I did not know that they had to pay 10 dollar for forum access. I can understand some payment if they got their own server, but a server hardly needs 50000 dollar a month to keep going .
Now, I do not know what this server is, or if it is used by anyone else. Or if its even true.
But if it is, its very silly. Paying double up for EVE. Oh well, their loss, and one mans gain .
Kudos to the guy that actually live of the goons tho, if that is the case. Nice easy job (again; if its true).
I for one treat EVE like a game, since I got lots of other stuff to do in RL as well.

I dislike them because:
- they give no respect, yet they think they are above everyone else - they don't create, they only destroy - they add nothing to the game, only hurting it - they are terrible pilots and terrible FCs - they cheat and metagame more than anyone - they are just jerks - they are the type of loser who would pay RL cash for access to an internet forum.
they succeed in this game only due to their numbers. unfortunately eve works in a way that gives a huge advantage to the side with greater numbers of pilots.
Now I'm not saying that everyone should hate them, just that I do. Hell, I'm 40 years old so it's hardly surprising I have a different set of values and resent the negativity they bring to the game.
but overall, I just think they are a cancer in the game and it would be 100% more enjoyable if they didn't exist as a group.
They are just normal people when you get them on their own, but as a group they are corrosive little turds and I despise them with every joule of energy I can muster.
I would happily give my 30b wallet away if it would remove them from the game, but I realised a long time ago that there's absolutely nothing that can be done.
Ironically, I was actually a somethingawful regular back when lowtax first started the site after leaving shacknews. I had even exchanged an email or two with him when he got fired from planetquake.
But I slowly drifted away once it was obvious that lowtax had realised how much money he could squeeze out of these oily turds. Nowadays, SA is just a festering abscess on the internet's unwashed hairy fat gut.

Originally by: chatgris Because they don't honour their agreements. It is a routine trick of theirs to offer membership to their corp for a fee, or offer to rent some 0.0 space for a fee. Then they take the money and run, rinse and repeat.
I think someone from goonswarm tried to do that to me. Was telling me how great it was out in 0.0 with a good alliance like they are and would train me into a good pvp pilot. After a long conversation about the corp seeming like a somewhat legit interview coming to a close with location details for applying and the very long journey to 0.0 all the sudden the red flag flew high.
"oh btw we do have a small deposit before joining which you would get back after 30 days"
me, "oh yea, how much"
"250 mill"
Didn't take hardy any research at all to find out this is a common scam by them and the people that fall for it get turned into the laughing stock of their forums.

Originally by: Doctor Mabuse Edited by: Doctor Mabuse on 23/03/2009 00:27:40 Where to start? Well try this:
Some goons
see the Goons are bigger than just Goonswarm in Eve, they have decided that your tastes in entertainment and game play are pathetic, and should be ridiculed and destroyed, and they try to do this as much as they can in many different arenas. They really want everyone to stop playing Eve and will try and break it in any way they can.
Its a bit like people in your local leisure centre deciding that you take your weekly squash games far too seriously and run amok all over the court whilst you're trying to play. Apparently to get upset over this behaviour would make it all 'serious business' and the target of even more disruption.
Personally, I really, really hate people telling me what to think and trying to dictate what I should like and dislike.
And now they own the richest part of the Eve universe, bad times ahead I think.
If that's what you got out of that article, I'd suggest taking courses in reading comprehension. === This Space For Lease or Sale. |

its not that they're dishonorable. BoB will gank you just as readily as Goon will- it's that they're ****ing ******ed 10-year-olds who read Encyclopedia Dramatica and post on 4Chan, and Something Awful. Lets face it, flip through 4Chan and tell me if the people on there are NOT ******ed.
Or alternatively we know that the goons are all furries and should be burned.

No no no no, you gotta commit to a forum spaz out if you're going to engage in one. Don't hedge your bets and add a qualifier to everything you say. Let it out. I'm here for you.

this is the kind of post that goons fap to, their behaviour produces whines like this, which is why they behave the way they do

Goons don't ruin the game, moronic "HONOUR" obsessive players do. The goons handle themselves like any other alliance, except they don't make some outlandish fake image that they need to live up to; they are exactly what they appear to be.
If you don't like it, tough luck. It doesn't matter anyway, they'll just kill you if they can. I know I would, the majority of EVE has far too much money for their brain size. I've never been in an alliance before that made me laugh so much and just enjoy myself. Goons rip on their FCs when they **** up, hell they might even pod the guy if he really ruined it. They'll cause diplomatic disasters with a few "mishaps" of friendly fire and if you give them an inch, they'll take a mile.
Honestly now, the goons get to be *******s because they've earned a semblance of power. Oh well if you don't like it you can always just write more idiotic posts how they're destroying the game that was made just for them; they don't care nor do they need to care.

Well one thing's for certain.
Internet spaceships is serious business. And lucrative business too.
I find the concept of Goonswarm members being farmed like Philipino sweatshop workers to be mildly amusing.
