Oh hello. I was just thinking back a few years and remembering that goonswarm used to think themselves edgy and unique. They used to be:
- One of the few alliances that admitted new players (though charged them large amounts of r/l money to join) - Innovative and amusing - their video pitch to increase the alliance cap was truly awesome. - Shocking - we all know what those incidents are, and it's best not to discuss them here since it will only result in flaming.
However in recent months Goons have:
- Failed against an alliance 1/7th their size (Sys-K) - Lost titans to pitiful alliances
Actually I can't be arsed finishing this post.

Honestly the r/l money to join thing was a mistake though. If any prospective recruits are reading this, our fees are now much more reasonable and payable 100% through in-game isk. Convo our recruitment director penifSMASH for details on how to put your toon in goon!

It's not RL cash anymore. We only take ISK now.

I'm going to give it another go in a few minutes, but right now I can't muster up enough care to finish the post.
Feel free to fill in the blankety blanks. The basic gist is that I've spent years hating them, and now they're not even doing anything worth bothering about.
Read back and check a few of my old posts to get a sense of the kind of witty quips and barbed put-downs I'd use.

I remember that time some of their WTs were having a funeral, for a player who died IRL, ingame. Goonies showed up and killed everyone there. That was epic FTW
Also, detecting some butthurt in this thread.

If you can't get any for free, you have to pay for it.

You obviously have no clue what an actual goon is. To point you in the right direction I will give you this hint; Goons were around before EVE existed. You figure out the rest.

Much like paying for gametime via in-game isk, you too can join GoonFleet with a low refundable deposit using in-game isk.
Convo me in-game for more info!
We are also renting out Querious, Period Basis, and parts of Delve to prospective corps and alliances who want to make that bold move to 0.0 space. GoonSwarm is here to help your corp or alliance meet its goals and needs.
Convo me in-game for more info!

Hahahahaha.
Large amounts of real life money. What sort of income does your Oxford education afford you that $10 US is a large sum of money?
I don't remember us claiming to be good at this game, so why would it surprise you when we are in fact terrible at it?
Also, thank you for spending years thinking about what we might think about ourselves.

Well first I'm destroyed on vodka. Then they did lose thier first titan to smash which is worse than anything. then it took em a while to kill smash which had no leadership when I walked away. Right now they look pretty decent and again mars is in the alliance they are attacking which isnt good.

The mere fact that you feel the need to explain this to me makes me believe you are somehow mad... 
My point still stands, and you just reinforced it. Have fun, fly safe.

Tell me about it... How do you think I feel? My entire raison d'etre for 4 years has been to expose Goonswarm as a sham of a mockery, and a mockery of a sham. I woke up this morning hoping I'd have some enthusiasm back for the whole thing, but I don't think I'll even get this post past 4 lines.

Yes, because of the state of the global economy, virtual money is worth much more then RL money.

I miss the time when the people that were most dedicated to hating goonfleet were actual bitter goon vets that had a reason to hate us and could provide at least interesting conversation
