dear ccp,

i am biased against goons, do something.

yours tearfully, some scrub on the forum.

I fully endorse this product and/or service. We will become meaningless in 2013, just you wait and see!

Want to become a Goonswarm member? Please contact me in game or send an eve-mail!



Proud recruiter for the Goonswarm Federation.
We have space for rent, contact me ingame!
Supers for sale via the trusted third-party service of TheMittani. Dozens of satisfied customers bought or sold theit super, join their ranks. Convo me!

CCP doesn't allow it, we all do. Or rather, Goons take their EVE much more seriously than most other players to a point where 500 poopsocking neckbeards will make for victories on the battlefield. Cultural victory at it's finest tbh.

Check out this recent analysis of Something Awful forum web traffic over the past 2 years, done by Alexa.com. Put the interval on max (2 years) and you can see the clearly decreasing web traffic on Something Awful forums. In another year or 2, they will be even less consequential. For those of you who dont know, this is the main internet forum that Goonswarm recruits from. This allows them to run recruiting scams on new players who dont realize that Goonswarm doesnt recruit from the main Eve population.

Goonswarm's player base has already decreased significantly this year. My point, is to stop kowtowing to an alliance that will be relegated to minor status in the not so distant future. Frankly there are other alliances, and not to mention hi sec players who have deserving of more attention than GS deserves.

What has CCP to do with this?

I am merely pointing out to CCP that they can finally stop bending backwards everytime the Goons scream about something. This is good thing for the game. Whats wrong with that?

Au contraire, I am merely a concerned Eve citizen who sees that dangerous misbalance of power in this game can have a detrimental experience on everyone's game experience.

As you can see by GS's declining player base, esp. this year, and now the death knell is sounding , with the decline of the Something awful forums from which they recruit, you can easily see GS is in decline.

this mentality amuses me.
"they do something we can't, must throw an insult in here because..."

actually, why do you do that? does it make you feel better about yourself? is it a way to vent jealousy? honestly, it baffles me.

That's a lot of words to say "umad" so props for that. And no, as much as you'd hope me to be, I'm not mad or care at all, I'm simply replying to the OP explaining that it's not CCP that makes it happen it's us the players. Me, you and everyone else. People who want something more than others will probably get it. If I wanted it I'd probably do something about it but as I don't that means I'm not "mad", no.

The last time I lived in 0.0 (and for a short stint only) was in 2009, I simply can't deal with morons, clowns, retards and jokers and as being in a large corp/alliance by definition means you'll run into those quite a lot I choose to pass on that. As such I'm not affected by anything that happens in 0.0, or anywhere else really.

The only influence I am currently seeing is that apparently they are capable of generating hysteria in you.

and what was the last thing ccp did to "bend over backwards" for goons?
if you can give me a proper answer to that, i'll give you a pack of tissues to dry your eyes with.

i fail to see how there's a misbalance of power anywhere either, to be blunt. at least, not one caused by anything other than the players.

Its strange that 90% of the tech moons in this game are controlled by Goons or their pets. Sorry that is not balanced, when multiple people and alliances have called for redistribution and CCP does nothing?

Let me also give you multiple instances where CCP bent over backwards, due to the demands from Goons to nerf hi sec.
1. Removal of lvl 5 missions from highsec
2. Removal of alot of minerals from missions
3. Huge tax increase on npc corps to 11% due to whining from GS again.
4. Believe it or not, members in GS were the most influential in getting this current NPC AI disaster that we currently have.

There you go, multiple instances where CCP bent over backwards to satisfy GS. Granted you are not the biggest allliance anymore, but you were a very vocal crowd and vocal crowds often get their way if they scream loud enough.

this thread will soon turn into nerf high sec
