I think from a psychological point of view, Butteswarm feds are pointing out to CCP that a better way of getting people into 0.0 is needed. [img]http://i53.tinypic.com/bebnf8.jpg[/img] |

So.... Goons are ( in their eyes at least) positive people, they hate bots ( Russian bots only it seems) and scam recruits ( and anyone giving them all assets and money deserves to get robbed). Normal eve people i guess.
DRF are kinda neutral on their standings ( or they dont care), they dont hate bots, and dont scam recruits....
Really confusing :)
On the other hand, honestly, Goons should keep a list of how many people had fallen for that scam, i am really wondering if the old saying is true, "there is one born every minute". |

Why don't you own several regions of 0.0 about it? mittens' best trick is to persuade you that he is all about serious business~ |

The difference between DRF and Goons is like the difference between a frugal shopper with lots of coupons and shoplifter. YA DRF will squeeze out every penny they can out of the game, but they won't outright steal it. Goons on the other hand, will do a grab and run because they really aren't clever enough to balance a checkbook.
The first is annoying, but the latter is just outright ********. |

To quote munchkin "Goons have no class." They do in fact scam, and heavily, at times. I know some people over on Penny-arcade forums. The forums have a corp in Goons, and even there they will tell you goons scam people. |

Firstly this is not a Goons alt or any major allaince alt
Secondly, thier is a serious point here, Goons are a major allaince in this game and Im sure they must get many applications, now IF they are scamming ppl then chars do need to be warned
However if a few of the goons are scamming ppl without the leadership knowing then surely they also should be made aware of it
As the topic asks, do they really do this
It is known Khalissi. |

Yes it is 100% true. infact if you listen to the latest episode of the Lost in Eve podcast there is an interview with mittens (Head of Goonswarm) and he say's that anybody offering to let you join eve is scamming you 90% of the time, NONE of the goonswarm main alliances recruit from ingame, they get their recruits from the Something Awful forum, there are a few corporations such as the Wildly Inappropriate corporation or some others that where friends to goonswarm and have been allowed in that may recruit ingame, but 90% of goonswarm will scam you.
Also to those saying it's not right, the alliance leadership is fully aware that their members are scamming people, this is goonswarm, this what they they do, nobody is going to stop them, and if you get scammed by them tough luck. EvE entirely encourages scams and tricks, look in Jita ect, if eve was to start banning scammed i'd be a sad man. |

You'll be approached by a member of Goonswarm who will tell you that they're recruiting (Goonswarm don't recruit), and can get your ships ferried out to null sec for a small payment (only a few hundred million ISK). So you give them your ships and your money, and never see them again.
A variation of that scam is where someone claiming to represent Goonswarm will offer your alliance access to some area of null sec. "We're desperate for industrialists" they'll tell you, "rent this system off us, and we'll buy ships & ammo from you." They will of course require a downpayment to cover infrastructure costs, and then they'll meet you at the Torrinos gate in EC-P8R to escort you to your new home. Only they blow you up instead. You never see your ships or money again.
yes they do. There are many many variations of this. Sometimes it accepted into goons, somtimes it renting, somtimes its blue standing etc... They all end in one way > POD kill and all ur valuables blown off or in their posetion. Anybody that has played this game for years, know this too well. Anybody that denies this, is either too new to the game or playing you for a fool. If you want to be the next fool, try it XD |

Goonswarm not only will kill you and take all your money, we'll take over the market as well.
But we don't scam. |
