I do my best to inform you dirty ignorant plebs through monkey friendly sign language but alas...

I am afraid your monkey friendly sign language is not so monkey friendly. But perhaps the GOON monkeys just speak a different Dialect.

No matter, any one who is shocked by GOON market manipulation needs to give there head a shake.

First of all the GOONS are just rapping up the take over of fountain. Which means a lot of GOONS that have been very busy lately suddenly do not have much to do. They needed something to keep the simple minded grunts busy while their dark overloards put together their next campaign.

Secondly, every GOON endevor has a few common traits, Have fun while impeding the fun of others, and exploit the fallout for profit.

Now the average EVE player has very little knowledge of what that fallout will be, but I can assure you, every action by the GOONS was carefully planed with the profits from the fallout being the primary goal, not actions themselves.

Personally I enjoy seeing a new GOON plot be put into action. As an outsider it is a challenge to try to determine the true goals behind the actions. I was actually pretty close a couple times. Another ICE interdiction seems a little boring, but hey, it worked so well the last time, maybe they just need to refill the coffers after the war. ICE interdiction is not about the ganking of miners, that is just a bonus, it is about creating predictable market fall out and maximizing the profits made off it. perhaps they will not even run another ICE interdiction. With the success of previous ICE interdiction's, the rumor about one alone will create enough fallout to generate some profit. But then again GOON grunts do so enjoy a good gankfest. A nice reward after the hard work in fountain. Either way ICE prices are going up, and if this is news to you, you already missed the boat.

When it comes to the GOONS the only thing guaranteed is that their chess pieces are set up for the win, long before the game even starts.

Some times I wish I was single, living in my mothers basement, with nothing to do but play EVE all day. To have time to be a part of such plots.

But then I remember how much better it is, to actually have a life, in the real world. Where achievements actually mean something.

They wouldn't even need an interdiction:

1. Organize mining ops for a week or two, keep the topes OR buy a pile before others do
2. Announce a planned interdiction
3. Wait for Jita crowd to go nuts and start stockpiling topes
4. When the price is high enough, sell their stock days before the interdiction is supposed to start
5. PROFIT

Bonus points:

6. Release an email about the interdiction being cancelled
7. Watch Jita traders go crazy shedding tears with all those piles of isotopes

But knowing goons, they would still want blood, so

Extra bonus points:

8. Buy a gazillion of another type of racial isotopes
9. Go for the interdiction in a different racial ice region (chosen in point 8)
10. PROFIT. AGAIN

I have not been accepted as writer.

gotcha anyone who has been quoted in a newspaper for any reason is a good enough writer to write articles for that newspaper

It's somewhat different interviewing / quoting someone vs copy pasting their writing without permission (nor informing them at all).

But hey, you guys make the rules in EvE so you have to be right.

You write like old people ****.

Do you bet that you talk worse in my mother language than I do in English?

P.S. Look at the goons gangbang against whoever is not fully aligned with them: that's what I was meaning earlier when I told Mynna that "freedom of speech" is not their forte.

You should apologize for the possible intellectual property theft (but notice: I am fine with my stuff being published, just not with *these forum posters* (not Mittani.com's) when confronted with reality) but no, arrogance and strongarming is your way even for RL matters.

given your best defense against the charge of your writing being crap in english is "well your italian probably is bad too" perhaps your first assumption when you were rejected from a slot writing for an english language website shouldn't be goonie conspiracies

If the goons are smart, and i believe they are when it comes to mass market manipulation...they will use the terror of the nitrogen ice event to refill their pockets twice.

...

What do others think of this?

I have not sent them a single line of my writings, I only asked if I could write an article.
Did they use telepathy to judge?
