Most interesting read, can't judge how factual it is though. However, it appears that there's a long term goal to push Eve to a point of stagnation in order to break it badly enough that CCP will have no choice but to fix it, or let it die.
Quote:In truth, the end result of all of this pairing off and conquering is a goal which has been conjured by the CSM. A statement of absolute meaning to CCP: Fix EVE. Fix EVE fast or we'll stagnate the game to the point where there'll be no wars, no need to fight and no need to play. It's a vicious message, a brutal message and it should, hopefully, be significant.
But there is profit to be made here. Money for the man with a keen eye. Control of all of null-sec under a large coalition allows certain resources to be controlled outright. Embargoes on resources result in hi-sec and low-sec being starved of crucial materials needed to build ships and continue the cycle of production and destruction that keeps the EVE Online economy functioning.
You see this? This is why they suddenly are so concerned about mythical "daytrippers" mining ABC in wormholes and want ABC removed from them. This is why they want ice removed from high sec.
Small wheels in a long term plan, not to benefit Eve, at least in the short run, but to push their agenda. The real question is... these are Goons. Are they really ultimately trying to save Eve, or is this the ultimate Goon Eve agenda... to bring it all crashing down and laugh as they transfer to their next MMO victim? Six months in the hole... it changes a man. |

Yeah, but in theory, CCP's quick fix to any such embargoed resources is to add the resources to high-sec or to buff resource gathering ships. Meaning, the level of effort needed to control null-sec doesn't mean much if CCP can counter by simply tweaking a few database entries.
If you want to "force" CCP to do something, then go after subs and hit CCP in the pocket book.
P.S. Generic tinfoil isn't worth the money. Use the name-brand stuff instead. IME/IMHO.

They have two choices, burn it all to the ground (much more entertaining I must say) or conquer and/or establish a game wide win where no one is left with anything to do but sit idly by and pray CCP breaks the stalemate.
The former option, one that is near and dear to my heart as the plan I would go for given the opportunity, is not possible in today's EVE because not enough people would agree to it.
The latter, can be foisted upon the player base by anyone with enough clout and power. What is stopping them? If they do not do it, DRF will.
I say let them, we can all both hate and cherish the fact that they are on the one hand attempting to willfully ruin the game for the rest of us and on the other hand calling CCP's bluff on whether or not CCP will wake up and smell the coffee before it's too little too late.
I know I for one, rather dislike the idea of being on the receiving end of what may or may not be their grand design, but the game will indeed be better for it, if the plan succeeds. If they fail, the game goes down with them and they have made a new name for themselves in a most bombastic way.

embargoing abc would be a pain in the ass
we simply embargo technetium, where we can easily check who owns what moon, and suddenly you can't make t2 ships (even after a tech nerf), or we embargo prom, or whatever is easiest to monitor
ice is much easier to control, it also has limited chokepoints that can be easily monitored |

Exactly, given enough clout and power I would make the same decisions as they may or may not be making, what with the general state of the game and all, it could not really do more than accelerate whatever is going to happen anyways, and I for one have waited two years since Dominion for CCP to at least address the issues they introduced.
I neither would wish POS spamming back onto players nor desire for the current trend to continue... which leaves two options, destroy everything I can get my hands on, or just simply stop participating in the grand space opera, convince (or force in this case) as many others as I can to do exactly the same, and sit and wait for CCP to crap a brick, pull all the stops, and finally do something legitimate and tangible about it.
Stoic is right though, it would have to be excessively drastic and effectual (in this case he argues that it is not) for CCP to take action, otherwise the only real way to get their attention is through subscriptions. ...clearly the Ishukone Watch Scorpion is the fifth horseman of the Apocalypse, i.e. the Brown Rider, otherwise known as Poopie. |

Well, that means no more POS-bashing, no more supercaps online, no more Zealot/Guardian fleets. Still can't see the downside.

Disband the CSM, ban the rebel leaders. Problem solved.
It seems some people think they can fight CCP with the gloves off. I wonder how much CCP is going to flex an iron fist to prove otherwise. The way I see it they got two choices, kneel to the rebels or nuke 'em.
This is CCP's game afterall, it says so in your contract. These actions could be seen as a violation of said contract and could be a very fair and legal grounds for a perma I.P. ban.
By all means start wars, turn entire systems insideout but do it the right way as in not broadcasting you're trying to wreck the game as a whole. Right now that line is getting obscured.
What's going on is a minority is starting to make a negative impact on the game, they do this because they have people in the CSM. I kind of figured the CSM would breed contempt for the rules as the saying goes "power corrupts".
CCP showed weakness over some issues in the past now select players think they can abuse that fact.
The question is then: How far are you willing to push CCP? |

Tbh it's a great storyline and kudos for pulling it off.
Uniting highsec-ppl to fight against that will be quite hard, because when threats arise, most ppl tend to ignore/try to defend/give up, instead of fighting against the enemy.

This is to be expected. Given a sandbox game where any size power bloc can be created, and used to whatever ends desired, entities such as Goonswarm were bound to form and have their lulz. Nothing here to be all that alarmed about.
I do think its ironic though, that by declaring Eve as being full of "rampant stagnation" and going on an all out campaign to embargo resources, attack highsec, and invade Delve, they are creating quite the firestorm of activity, giving many players some much needed excitement and / or something to do.
How one promotes stagnation by engaging in the very large-scale conflicts they say are dwindling, is a little beyond my understanding. But I'm just an armchair observer, I just gather bits and pieces from news articles, forum chatter, and the occasional pompous Mittani tweet. Maybe someone in GSF can better explain how you further stagnate a "stagnating" game by kickstarting a combined military push and market manipulation scheme across Empire while simultaneously reclaiming some hotly contested territory. What happened to Mittani's statement that nullsec resources weren't worth the hassle of claiming and holding Sov?
This is why I stay out of such things and just stick to my corner of the universe.... |

Ugh, I've had serious cases of norovirus like three times in the past ten years and it nearly landed me in the ER twice, hope you get well soon Geal!
But I mean, yes, they are probably enjoying themselves to a degree for sure. But whether they are going beyond the EULA by claiming they want to monopolize the entire game just to cause CCP to address the issues they feel need addressing... well... CCP cannot really ban people for playing the game, can they?

...Just want to double check - the problem is lack of reason to fight in nullsec. The solution - to take over all of nullsec through military and economic force? Isn't that like saying saying we're going to protest peace through a violent revolution, only to take control to implement more peace again?
To say it'll all be over soon and back to boringtown - is to make the blanket assumption that any campaign by the GSF will be 100% successful and take a minimal amount of time to achieve. (Probably true, but we dont really need to feed the egomachine.)
I say, in the meantime, until the GSF's plan comes to fruition it looks to me like Eve's stagnation problems are solved. :)

When it comes right down to it, who cares if they are going after ice miners? Thanks for the warning. Stop mining ice! They will get bored and probably hit Veldspar miners next. So, stop mining Veld and do missions. When they finally get around to harrassing every mission-runner in all of New Eden, they will be stretched so thin as to be part of the nameless background.
The only way this campaign of their can "break" EVE is if a huge number of players either join in the destruction themselves (copycat campaigns) or get frustrated and quit. If the first thing happens, then everyone will at least be having fun burning the world down. If the second thing, CCP will do something to stop player loss. |

Nothing to be taken serious. Quite a few work at CCP and in high positions for game direction etc. So CCP trolls itself now? Please substantiate this or is it just another "my friend has a brother. who knows..." statement?
I assume you mean other than the guys that have announced themselves on the forums, IE Sreegs. Or didnt you know the head of security is or used to be a Goon? **** FiS Its Called EVE |

However, it appears that there's a long term goal to push Eve to a point of stagnation in order to break it badly enough that CCP will have no choice but to fix it, or let it die. Quote:In truth, the end result of all of this pairing off and conquering is a goal which has been conjured by the CSM. A statement of absolute meaning to CCP: Fix EVE. Fix EVE fast or we'll stagnate the game to the point where there'll be no wars, no need to fight and no need to play. It's a vicious message, a brutal message and it should, hopefully, be significant.
But there is profit to be made here. Money for the man with a keen eye. Control of all of null-sec under a large coalition allows certain resources to be controlled outright. Embargoes on resources result in hi-sec and low-sec being starved of crucial materials needed to build ships and continue the cycle of production and destruction that keeps the EVE Online economy functioning. You see this? This is why they suddenly are so concerned about mythical "daytrippers" mining ABC in wormholes and want ABC removed from them. This is why they want ice removed from high sec. Small wheels in a long term plan, not to benefit Eve, at least in the short run, but to push their agenda. The real question is... these are Goons. Are they really ultimately trying to save Eve, or is this the ultimate Goon Eve agenda... to bring it all crashing down and laugh as they transfer to their next MMO victim?
Welcome to last month.
...and CCP is more than happy to give it to them. The rage should not be targeted at Goons. It should be targeted at CCP for agreeing with it in the first place. We want breast augmentations and sluttier clothing in the NeX! |

Not a fan of the Goons, but one thing that can be said about their activities is that they actually get Eve. Its a sandbox, they are playing in it. They are doing in Eve exactly what Eve is for, creating content.
So they have made a few select systems unsafe in a small part of the galaxy for specific type of pilots doing something very specific. How in the world is this a global problem. Its a butterfly sized problem.
Avoid the systems in which they are active (which they have conviently listed for you) .. problem solved. |

Nullsec is under the control of a small band of egomaniac warlords who love nothing but to fight.
Is that a problem ? I believe it breaks immersion a bit. If EvE was a game in which fighting was conducted by dishevelled barbarians on horseback clad in animal skins and wielding bows and arrows, it would be absolutely fine.
However, I cannot help finding it odd to have that sort of mentality while we are piloting spaceships. I do not believe a space-based society could survive long with that kind of mentality. As a result, the whole thing becomes quite surreal and, yes, eventually boring.

CCP has banned 10,000 members for Botting in one go. If it came down to it CCP could wipe out GSF in a heart beat. And the funny part is they don't even need to have a reason to do it.
For that matter CCP could reset all of 0.0 just as quickly. Personally though if I was CCP and felt it was time for a 0.0 reset. I would let loose the dog's of war. ie - CCP in there special ships going from system to system destroying everything in there path. It would be a ton of fun "RUN FOREST RUN" 
PS - I would like to volunteer for this if it ever happens. Just hand me the ship and skills and I will kill anything you want me too
