Think about it. It wasn't long ago that the DRF beat the Northern Coalition. They can do the exact same thing to the goons and they don't like them either. Let's pool our isk together so we can pay the translators and work together to bring the goons down.
Down with the Mittani.
The DRF were always pretty terrible, they succeeded because
(1) The NC was even worse (2) Because they contracted PL first.
Now there is no DRF; RA and XiX have been kicked out of their space and are too busy trying not to fail altogether, SOLAR hates both of them and are having the time of their lives tyvm, and PL won't face 1000 bees in arty Maels.
If you want to beat goons, you'll have to do 2 rather unpleasant things
(1) You'll have to admit that goons are right about a number of things and do them extremely well; training and retaining new players, managing a coalition, instilling a culture of indifference to losses so long as goals are achieved
(2) Put in a few years of constant effort to build up a large alliance and a powerful coalition like they did.
I wish you the best of luck. Malcanis' Law: Any proposal justified on the basis that "it will benefit new players" is invariably to the greater advantage of older, richer players.

You know, we should make some kind of special arrangements.
Highsec has Red vs Blue
Maybe we (and by we I mean you highseccers, of course) should start up an alliance called Band of Brothers. (BoB.) and then have regular fights. Like an unending Great War or continual gladiatorial games.
I'm not sure, but Cobalt Edge has a group of people living in it who love to fight us but sadly are NC. pets. You could try living there, but be independent ! Except on your military industrial machine, of course. Those who cannot adapt become victims of Evolugalbugaslugakjlwsdhvbzxd |

just one question...
what language is spoken by the goons? goonish ?
and you havent mentioned the players that use located clients and doesn't speak english or russian aswell !
so if "you" want to take them down you should rethink your wording to get "all" involved ! because you would need "all" to get rid of them !

You do realize that the moment any fleet is created, with the sole intention of invading goonswarm space will cause an "emergency" reboot to tranquility. When the fleet logs back in they'll just find themselves back in their home stations...
This is one of the "cool" features to EVE... 'twas the night before Jitageddon and all through 4-4. Not a freighter was undocked, not even the transports. Outside the undock was Goonswarm, floating with care. |

Now if people could just act in game instead of talking about it on forums... Kind of tiring to see goon thread after goon thread. I think that if all the Goon haters would have put all those efforts whining about them on the forums into doing something in game something may have already been "achieved". -Death is nothing, but to live defeated and inglorious is to die daily. |

Is the OP a Goon by any chance? Do they have an internal competition for the most creative "kill all gewns" thread?
Or are there really so many sad guys running around in this game?

Nope...I want Goons to stay right where they are. Frankly if Goonswarm didn't exist then every single ******* in that alliance would be scattered about and potentially in my alliance. At least this way we know where they all are. If you don't like Goons then join an alliance and go kill them. EvE is not about PvP.-á EvE is about the SANDBOX! |

The problem with Goons is that due to the game's sandbox mechanics, there is no intrinsic end-game, and so the Goons invented one.
Unfortunately the end game they decided on was to bring around the end of the actual game, in other words, to break out of the sandbox and to force others out too.
While it's certainly a valid goal, I don't believe it is in the best interests of the actual game. |

The only way a large group of whining hi-sec PVE players would lower their paranoia shield to attack a group, like the Goons, would be if there was a magic mid-slot wand-like device that converted the enemy ships in to asteroids so they could be mined. (Can't use a high or low slot, that would have a negative impact on their yield, but they never really use their mid slots) The Unified Inventory system for Inferno, which I would recommend everybody tryon SiSi, is going to be the next 'Door' for CCP. What it adds is worthless when we lose so much functionality.-á |

To be honest, i found this entire thread extremely funny. I think it would be great to see all of high sec and CFC's null enemies combined into a single attack force, if only to be apart of the epic and massive battle that follows. But i also agree with others that the Goons are too much fun to get rid of. I had an absolute blast in jita-geddon, kill mail whoring on all i could the other downside is that even if a single attack force formed they would need to take out tech moons to slow income. this would then bring about the entire OTEC which = titan blobs from PL super carrier blobs from PL Maelstrom blobs from CFC Drake blobs from CFC Even larger blobs of logi ships and triaged carriers and pantheon carriers from every alliance in OTEC. I also want to bet that there will be a shield repping rorqual, because why not.
Their drakes would literally blot out the sun of that system, if the maelstroms werent already doing it. Then the carriers will blot out the maelstroms on our overviews. Then the titans and supercarriers will blot out our screen and we wont see anything. then TIDI would be at 110% effectiveness and the game would simply stop. |

I've just had a epiphany, all cats are trolls used to playing in a sandbox, ergo if cats evolved thumbs they would be goons. War hasn't been fought this badly since Olaf the Hairy, High Chief of all the Vikings, accidentally ordered 80,000 battle helmets with the horns on the inside. |

Forum games are fun and all (who doesn't like a good forum game, after all?). But let's not kid ourselves.
The goons, and the CFC in general, could probably take over all of Null sec if they wanted, given enough time and planning. They have more money and resources than God herself, superior organization, ability to recruit and retain large numbers of cannon fodder, and a mastery of the game mechanics.
The only thing that will kill the CFC are themselves, through various means, or some uber-uber meta gaming. Empty bromides on an Internet forum, while somewhat amusing, aren't going to do a damn thing.
Think about it: what is there left to do after you've proven that you can take on all comers like the CFC have? You raise your ambitions. What could be more ambitious than taking over New Eden? Turn high-sec and low-sec into ghetto while CFC rule null. |

I have heard of people getting banned for engaging in combat in Jita. since Goons did it, it is now legal to smartbomb the undock of Jita 4-4.
IT IS. (did it the other day)
CCP will not ban you for undocking in scorp after scorp and smartbombing the undock. it is the only conclusion after the burning of jita by Goons. its not like the Goons paid/are supported by CCP and ban others that do what they do.
it is now officially encouraged to do this type of thing. CCP likes it when you this. Everyone can now burn jita.

Goons are not the problem. If Goons didnt exsist the same minded people would fly under another banner and history will repeat itself.
Before it was BoB, now it is Goons. Eventually Goons will fall and another group will do the same things.
I dont care tbh. |
