I take it someone took offense to Goonfleet's rising popularity and ultra-sexiful news post.
I'm not even sure why they bother. A loss of 200 ships for goonfleet is the fiscal equivelent of a box of paper clips.

Ohhhhh Noooo! Not another War Dec!
I seriously do not understand why all these empire carebear wanna-be pvpers constantly declare war on us. We dont live/produce/work/participate in empire, AT ALL!!!!
But thanks, now that i have gotten back to -1.9 from -10.0, I will gladly bring my assault frigates and interceptors to empire to gank you morons.
Also, if you actually grow the cajones to step foot into our little area of syndicate we call home, make sure you come with new clones.
I offer you this as a truce. Just bring uninsured battleships and eject outside of a station for us, make sure to have T2 complete fittings. Itll save you the isk of insurance. We promise to let your eggs fly home. Hell, Ill give you 9K to buy a shuttle :D

Sorry, we get on average a wardec a day from Random_Two-Man_Pirate_Corp_01., and since the news story those have spiked. We usually don't even see them, but it's annoying having to delete the corpmails. I think Azaeren just assumed this was yet another of the same variety.

I know what u mean from my last corp , but if anything it will give you guys a bunch of people to practice on, and reason must people declare war rather than just turning up in 0.0, is to stop people from going to empire to avoid getting shot.

Evidently they are actually a real pvp corp. Since they are, I look forward to the good fights ahead of us. As a director, I just get tired of seeing all the useless wardecs from 3 man corps filling up our inboxes.
As for smacktalk, we like a little smack on the boards, and nice converstations in local after a fight are ok. But dont look for us to act like tremendous morons before/during/after fights. We "smack tax" our members so to say.
Looking forward to filling the corp tax hangar with new shiny t2 mods.

Yeah. Thing is that just pushes all of us even more densely into our little home corner systems. We have production running full tilt out here, so the only time most of us go to empire is podjumping to buy skillbooks.
If people really wanted to cause us trouble they'd get everyone to cancel their wardecs, then attack us heavily in our home systems; that might split our forces a little. As it is though, too many enemies, that's never gonna happen :P
Last night we broke. . 160? in corp chat, and almost all of those were right around our little home base area.

Oh, the 21st of Feb with the server upgrades cannot come soon enough.
Anyways, looking forward to some great fights. Although I still can't understand the logic of hiring a mercenary corp to take down a bunch of T1 frigates. Unless your retainer fee is something like a bag of peanuts and permission to sleep on the couch, I'm thinking that the contracting party isn't going to come out ahead isk wise.

We didn't do it to protect goonfleet we did it because we wanted to kill you. You camped the empire entrance gates in 0.0 and could just jump out when something of threat came but with the empire war you weren't as safe jumping out.
Hopefully this war will trim the goonfleet into a even more deadly swarn of pilots. GL HF

Goonfleet contain many of the ingredients for a great corporation.
- Dedicated brotherhood of players, both dedicated to the game and their corporation.
- Loads of members, able to defend themselves.
- All players stay in the same relative area so the corporation is not spreadt out at all.
Problem is, 98% of them are all noobs, but give them a few monthes and they will put a hurting on alot of the people in this game. Mainly because most corporations can not keep their members dedicated and contained enough to be as successful.
And NSN will probably rip them a new one.... --------

In all seriousness, one great thing about being in Goonfleet is that we're always the underdogs. Since we're always fighting established vet corps, and we're always flying t1 frigates and such, our losses don't really matter financially, and what's more, don't really reflect badly on us as a corp, either, due to our massive skillpoint deficiency.
But our wins. . oh man, those are sweet =).
It's like the old adage about never fighting anybody smaller than you are. If you win, you're a bully, and if you lose, you're a bum. Always fight people bigger'n you -- either way, win or lose, you're a hero.

Be nice. We come out there because we want a fun fight. You dont "chase" us off, we all have ADD and wander off if nothing happens for more than 3 seconds.

you never chased us off. We come in we blow you up we leave its what we do. Ask any one else out there. Dont start thinking your uber because you can have 200 friagte pilots show up in there 100k frigates that are bought for them.

Not trying be rude, but you need to realize we aren't going to jump in on a force of t1 cruisers and frigates 4 to 5 times our size. We don't have the luxury of flying cheap ships, because we don't have 70 members on all the time. Its hardly a "notch on your belt." I have respect for you guys, but don't go on the forums and mouth off that you won the battle because we left. Smacking for a fight that never occured just makes you look like a tard. Real.

Errr....
They're mercs, they're not paid to entertain you they're paid to carry out whatever specific objective their employer wishes, so bemoaning their tactics is not exactly going to do anything other than make you look a bit daft.
Considering you're from a self-confessed corp of newbies who according to this thread hardly even knew who Eve's premier mercenary outfit (MC) was then your opinion of what they are capable of compared to the people in here giving them respect is not exactly going to carry a lot of weight.
Besides which aren't you like barely even into the first 24 hours of the contract, so how on earth can you judge?
There's an awful lot of smack and attitude eminating from Goonfleet considering their startling lack of achievements in game so far, other than to gather a horde of newbies under one banner (I'd never even heard of you until a couple of days ago). It might be a good idea just to chill out a bit, have a laugh with all these war decs and get your corp built up (and I don't mean just in numbers) before you start crowing on the forums.
People who shout too loudly about how cool they are tend to attract a bit of attention and numbers won't save you if you **** the wrong people off. Just a little advice from someone who's been around the block a few times and is used to attracting that kind of attention .

Well....we were 8 in gang when we got reports that the Goons were heading our way. We were going to sleep but got curious what they had brought so we stayed up a bit longer.
10 minutes later local went from 47 to 93...the Goons had arriwed in 9 BS 10 Crusiers and lots of tacklers...So, we have 8, they have 30+....hmm hmm what to do what to do...
All I can say is, its to bad you guys didnt stay longer, we had cake ready and were just about to hand out plates when you left the system.
And yes we were out traveling in 0.0 a bit erlier, the game lagged so much that half the gang got warped after every jumpin so we said screw it.

It's about fun, win or lose. And I personally expect to be losing alot more before I start putting dents in hulls.

We have a lot of members, maybe less than one percent have posted in this thread and unfortunately we're not going to be able to stop everyone in our large corp from talking smack. I think generally we're a lot more respectful than we're coming off in this thread. We're not arrogant, we're just used to war now, and I think a lot of doubt this one is going to hold many surprises, but I hope I'm wrong. We never really asked for the attention, but we do like the experience it gives our new players. Variety is the reason we live in Syndicate.
Anyway, I just want you to put the amount of smack talk in perspective, it's a few people in a corporation of over 500 active members.

I have respect for you guys, but don't go on the forums and mouth off that you won the battle because we left. Smacking for a fight that never occured just makes you look like a tard.
That's a fair point, and we've been telling our members to try to keep things polite, but, well, we only have so much control over them.
That said, it's just annoying to continually have people wardeclare us, bring a force down, we gather a response fleet, and new_mercenary_group runs away and never engages. . .
I mean, honestly. You have to know we're going to bring numbers, it's as unreasonable to ask us to fight on even odds as it would be for us to ask our opponents to podkill themselves without clones until they had equal skill point totals. Even when we outnumber by 4 to 1, we probably still are facing skill point totals that are 2 to 1 or more against us.
So if people come in expecting us not to blob, you're just wasting everyone's time. Either bring a force that's significant enough to engage one of our blobs, or don't bother -- and i don't mean that as a slight, it's just that it won't be any fun for either you or us, so what's the point of playing a game that isn't fun? If you aren't willing to engage an 80-person fleet, then coming down to bother us is just going to waste your time and ours both. Nothing personal, not meant as a slight. Really more just a tactical "why are you bothering?"

I know of Maya out of game, running back several years, and we (unfortunately) hang out in some common chat channels and on some common out-of-eve message boards. I've been hearing the same smack from Maya for months now, it's just gotten old. But that's a personal matter, not a corp one. For all I know the rest of his corp are all paladins of the eve technocracy or whatever. I'm just sick of Maya injecting himself into every single goon-related discussion when he's not involved in the slightest. But like I said that's just a personal annoyance, not corp-related.

I'm just sick of Maya injecting himself into every single goon-related discussion when he's not involved in the slightest, and doesn't even hang out within two hour's travel of our space. To my knowledge Maya's never even seen a single goonfleet member in-game, but he still shows up, talking smack, in every single thread. . .. But like I said that's just a personal annoyance, not corp-related.
Ever heard of the phrase "forum whore"? Maya's definitely one, and thus reserves the right to inject himself absolutely anywhere he likes...
Definitely refreshing to get a non-smack response, though. I can say I did not expect that -- Proud member of the [23].

Heheh :P
We are trying to teach our guys not to smack and to stay polite and civil (for the most part) -- those of us who've been playing longer than a few weeks know that things turn around, anyone who's top one week can be bottom the next, and it doesn't pay to smack, long term. But we do have a lot of guys who've only been playing a few weeks, so bear that in mind and try not to hold it too much against us :P Yet another area where we have lots of room to grow =)

Hoooray!
I also apologize for the less-intelligent members of our corp. There's a lot of us, so you'll inevitably get some screwballs. You also have to realize that you are about the 7th wardec since our feature in the news, so its hard for us to know if you will be a real opponent or just another group of pirates who look for easy kills and end up getting on the wrong end of a goonrush.

In my limited experience with EVE, I've come to the conclusion that out of any given corporation, it's almost certain that 5-10% of them will be just itching to fling horse excrement at the slightest provocation. Unfortunately, when you're as big a corp as goonfleet, you wind up with a lot of those people.

Kladdkaka apparently is a swedish dessert, the name of which roughly translates to 'sticky cake'. I may have to try my hand at making it, it looks quite tasty.

Something I've noticed here is that people take most goons entirely too seriously, but that's okay, they probably aren't familiar where we're "from". Anyways, if we can get a few good battles out of this war, I'll be happy. I'm more than willing to lose some ships if it's a good fight. You NSN guys sound like a nice enough bunch, I look forward to fighting you.

There are 700 frigate losses on the goonfleet killboard, And we estimate there is another 300-400 that people didnt bother to post. The total cost of all the frigates lost since goonfleet's inception is around 100mil.

This was probably done either by Cheface, or one of the other corps that don't like us but have oodles of money, yet not enough back bone to come fight us themselves. Anytime someone even gets close to our system, they'll typically stop short 2-3 systems when they do whatever ( check their star maps? ) and see eighty billion people sitting around in system.
Other enemies will wardec, then sit in empire where only a few of us go back and forth occasionally, usually at a university, waiting for one of us to jump out in a shuttle to kill us.
The other enemies actually DO come to S-U, usually in a destroyer, interceptor, or stealth bomber, and either annoy us by killing 2-3 people in newbie frigates that are easily replaced, kill a single mining cruiser, or warp from station to station at 100kms then back to a safespot as soon as anything bigger than a frigate gets closer than 90kms.
None of our enemies have our respect, hopefully this will be different. If not, just another annoyance to deal with. No biggie. As for the blobs, if warping around from spot to spot without doing anything is a tactic, as is running from any real fight, then no one can really go against the blob tactic.
Just sounds to me like some pilots that have trained up lots and lots of stats are annoyed that we won't come out in anything bigger, and their battleships will get taken down by hordes of worthless ships.

We do, for good enemies. The french guys, as I've stated before, were six kinds of awesome and were great enemies that could have posed a serious threat.
Morons like Scallen that come into the system and warp from safespot to safespot to stations in their destroyers aren't. But they are pretty funny.
Either way, I don't really care. At least this means I won't have to go out pirating to get a PvP fix.
Don't forget Conin and Shadows, they're often good for a fight.

Reading it correctly, they decided to not engage at nearly 6:1 odds (46:8)
That's all there is to it.
Oh, I agree that it makes sense to not engage those kinds of odds. The problem is, against Goonfleet, those WILL be your odds. Which means one of two things. Either they didn't know how many members GF has or hadn't noticed how large GF gangs tend to be (very unlikely), or they're being paid to gank lone travellers in empire.
Which is what the last few wardecs have been all about.

Anyways, tonight I bore witness to my first NSN kill. Yessir, that intercepter and sniping tempest sure took care of Annover Haf in his very first Merlin. I am sure you really set him back.
I purchased him two more with fittings because of it, and he was even more happy that he got blown up. So he will be there the next day scrambling and webbing and all that other good stuff. See you there!

Everyone should care about the respect of the people they deal with in-game. You shouldn't care about me at all, AFAIK we have never ever crossed paths in-game.
It is a lot more fun to fight people you have a certain amount of respect for, and that respect has to be earned. I will not respect someone because I am told to, I will remain neutral until I interact with those people.
With regards to NSN, I heard you had a good reputation and was expecting a fight. We know you were in Syndicate, but you only went about three jumps in before returning to Empire. When you got back to Empire space, you setup camp to catch our members who were doing a little shopping or picking up skillbooks. You would definately not get more than a T1 Frigate kill there.
There are two types of people who fight us, those who take ships/fleets up to S-U and arn't afraid to engage, and those who try to gank those of us minding out own business in Empire space. I really hope that you guys can live up to your reputation and come to fight us, but your first impression was a bad one.
You should have expected us to 8:1 blob you guys, and if it isn't something you can deal with, you should never have accepted the contract in the first place.
I really want to be proven wrong, I want an enemy who is prepared to fight, who will find and exploit the weaknesses we have, who is prepared to lose ships, who is capable of inflicting heavy damage on us.
I do not want to fight a corp who sits in the safety of Empire, 20 jumps away from our home system, ganking random people.

Trac3rt, as you seem to be one of the more well-spoken members of GoonFleet, let me offer you and yours a few words of advice - stop spamming the forums barely 18 hours into the war. In case you didn't know, NSN earned its current reputation by being one of the front-line corps of the old Phoenix Alliance in the Great Northern War. Since then, they've spent the last year in the MC.
If you don't know what that means, let me spell it out for you and your members - this isn't some random cabal of griefers out for cheap thrills. This isn't a pirate corp looking to get some laughs. NSN is a hardened group of PvP veterans with over two years of blood pooled around their boots. They will fight and they will "bring it". They will also gank you, ambush you, pod you and generally try to cause a lot of explosions.
My point? Leave the morality arguments at home, please. They don't care about your expectations. They are being paid to hurt you.
Regardless, NSN is a good-natured crew and you can have some fun with them so long as you keep it civil. Take advantage of it.

Anyone can out blob it takes a true fighter to out Strategize.
I have personally led gangs that have chased your gang up the pipe (with your interdictors laying bubbles at every gate so we cant follow). If that doesn't count as being chased off, I dont know what does.
TBH it takes a lot of foresight and planning to blob a bs gang in frigates. I've lost 35-40 man frig gangs fighting CI 30 man BS gangs for no kills learning this.
There has never been a 200 man GF gang. Ever.

To be honest, I didn't know much about NSN before this weekend. I am relatively new myself, and I am learning the politics of this game as I go along. I had heard people say good things about NSN, and I was expecting more of them than an Empire Gank squad.
NSN should have a word or two with the enemies who have brought the fight to us. The people who have fought us toe to toe, know what to expect, and how to fight us. This way we will have a lot of fun

They will also gank you, ambush you, pod you and generally try to cause a lot of explosions.
o rly!

Originally by: Trac3rt Edited by: Trac3rt on 14/02/2006 13:15:24 To be honest, I didn't know much about NSN before this weekend. I am relatively new myself, and I am learning the politics of this game as I go along. I had heard people say good things about NSN, and I was expecting more of them than an Empire Gank squad.
NSN should have a word or two with the enemies who have brought the fight to us. The people who have fought us toe to toe, know what to expect, and how to fight us. This way we will have a lot of fun
A lot of us are pretty new, and the politics of EVE is something you can only really learn over time. Hell, I don't know who 90% of the major players are (aside from the big blobs on the alliance map).
However, Seleene does have a point. These guys aren't newbies and this war has barely just begun. We've had success in the past against pirates and mercenaries, but that doesn't guarantee our success in the future any more than forcing an 8-man HAC squad into station constitutes a victory for GF. This war has barely just begun. I have no expectations for how it will end, but I believe it will be good fun for both sides.
I implore all Goonfleet members, as your fellow countryman and brother in arms, please, show a little self-respect and keep the smack to yourself, or at least keep it on our private forums . We won't win this war on the forums, if you want to say something, say it with guns & ammo .

This is stupid. We don't want a 8:1 blob, but a lot of our active members are about 3 months old. We don't want anything, we just work with what we have. If facing a group of players whose characters have been developing for atleast 2 years is what we have to do, then by god we're going to use what we have wisely. Don't be proud of yourself for picking off people in a corp who, more than likely, have only been playing for the last two months, whoever the hell you are.

Wow, you beat a corp that has less combined sp's in it's entire 10,000 man memberbase than your hauling alt. GJ. What's more amazing is the fact you felt the need to tell everyone about it. Congrats Fred0. You beat a 30k sp n00b. If you ask them nicely they'll make you a banner.
You talk about 8:1 odds, but GF are often engaging (despite the numbers) with a 10th of the combined sp's on the field than their enemy. You want to engage GF in a fair fight sp for sp I doubt you'd have the guts? You want to criticise people for using their SP advantage over GF ... course not. You want to criticise GF for using their only advantage... their numbers. Course you do.
Anyway, congrats on your mastery of the 30k sp char. I hope it fills a void, and brings you the respect you so obviously crave in eve.

I sometimes wonder if there's still people that don't go "oh no, another Tolon post..."
On topic, GoonFleet leaders needs to whip a leash around their smacktalkers. Doesn't really help them, now or in the future. If eve history has something to teach us, that would be that big mouths need to be backed up ingame, by big guns.
I wonder, what excuse will you guys come up with, in 6 months time, when the SP argument will no longer hold ? --------------------

Azararananananaenenen is right, alot of us do snipe. I myself am one of Goonfleet's dedicated snipers.
As to us just simply being a "blob" Corp, I would like to interject with one particular instance: Conin and 206 decided to camp the 6-u to s-u gate, (a really quite silly manuever considering goonfleet's frigate stores are about 10 seconds away.) Goonfleet with some OSS support jumped in with approximately 30 players, finding a combined force of approximately 22, some would refer to this as relatively even playing field considering most large fleet battles end up with one fleet twice the size of the other.
The Conin/206 fleet was annihilated by an assault by 6 battleships, 2 Assault Frigates, and assorted Tech 1 support. 6 Battleships and a Cerberus were killed in the first sortie, chase was given and a further two battleships were destroyed. At the cost of a single blackbird and a random t1 frigate I forget the name of.
As you can see from this battle we can ascertain that under certain circumstances a Goonfleet gang can win without significantly superior numbers. However this is a moot point when it comes to Mercenary corporations. Mercenary corporations are usually quite small to increase profit margins, and only recruit the best of the best to keep costs down. NSN will always be outnumbered on the battlefield with Goonfleet, and you should pack it in and go home if you're unwilling to fight against us. I mean no disrespect to NSN, you are established PVP pilots, I myself held great respect for your corporation while I was a member of the Stain Alliance/Empire(Pre civil war). However for all this respect, I cannot see how you can conciously make the decision to fight an enemy with such overwhelming numbers - and then have the sheer gall to complain about it, and run away!
However, I do wish NSN luck with their new contract, may we have many a good fight around my many safespots and sniping positions in S-U and surrounding systems, because you won't find us anywhere else.
PS: I use the plink of mercenary guns against my armour as a metronome these days.

They arent complaining. You cannot engage massive odds, so they dont. They will work to increase kills, not have battles to please you. IF they think they can win they will do it, if they cant then whats the point, dock and watch a dvd or something.
They accept you have massive numbers, do you think they didnt know what to expect?

"Oh, I agree that it makes sense to not engage those kinds of odds. The problem is, against Goonfleet, those WILL be your odds. Which means one of two things. Either they didn't know how many members GF has or hadn't noticed how large GF gangs tend to be (very unlikely), or they're being paid to gank lone travellers in empire. "
Or it means the possibility #3 taken from the original post:
"We were going to sleep but got curious what they had brought so we stayed up a bit longer."
if a corporation has members mainly in one time zone (and unless really large, typically they do) ... then by the time it gets late in their part of world the online presence is going to be quite lower than usual. So really, not much point in trying to project what they're trying to accomplish, from the single instance of few people staying up a bit longer out of curiosity. ^^
regarding the odds and ratio... note, in order to maintain that 6:1 things, for every extra 8 people NSN decides to brings, GF will need another 46. While doable, it's certainly easier task for one side here... not to mention at this rate of growth the server node is bound to collapse fast anyway, which makes the whole blobbing rather moot as no one will have fun. Any possible hardware upgrades nonwithstanding.

I do indeed believe they didn't know what to expect, considering the ran up Syndicate a few systems, ran out and camped an empire gate, where they know they'll get the occasional t1 frigate or god forbid t1 hauler kill. I haven't been in any of the NSN scraps yet, but I'm yet to see the NSN I remember from a year ago in the stories I hear. However, I will admit I'm yet to have a first person experience, and Goonfleet members I know are not exactly the best in telling the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Anyway, my major point is, if they're not willing to engage those odds they're out of luck for getting anything but the occasional t1 frigate or hauler. It's a simple fact of life in warring large corporations filled with newbies still being trained, you have to come to our home to see anything of value in our fleets, and then you're blobbed. We are at our core a numbers corp, nobody can deny this, our chief weapons are surprise, our shiny red uniforms and surprise.. wait wrong speech! Our chief weapons are... oh stuff it everybody already knows our secret tactics!
To NSN, I do look forward to our coming sorties, engage or not, it gives me an excuse not to play Everquest! The above opinions are the opinions of Spiritech only, and are not to be taken as any official statement or stance |

Having a frigate destroyed and a 100,000sp clone podded is a good learning experience for the new players in our corporation. I think a lot of us support it happening now and then so these members don't get complacent in our little corner of space. Boasting about picking off green players doesn't constitute "picking on." Quite simple really.

Because while 100 people in system during a fleet battle causes lag, engaging people sitting on the gates in Oursulaert with 300 people in system causes immediate death, and turns a tactical engagement into whoever gets on the gate first.
Maybe after the hardware upgrade.

Here's why I can't understand sending mercs against us... PvP with goonfleet usually plays out in one of a couple ways:
1. Headon engagements when we have the numbers advantage, or what KIATolon refers to as "an absolute pasting" over TS. No merc corp wants to suffer financial losses like that. 2. Enemies use hit and run guerilla tactics against us in S-U, killing newbies in T1 frigs who don't have instas. The employer is getting screwed here because, I assume, the point of hiring mercs is to financially damage a corp. That isn't happening because the losses goonfleet sustains are minimal and easy to repair.
Just the zyd tax a cruiser miner pays while mining crokite for an hour will cover, at the bare minimum, 3 t1 outfitted frigs, and the rest can go to his battleship fund or exotic dancers or space blow.

I believe Recluse said that they were in 0.0 looking for targets but the lag on the first night was such that it was unplayable so they moved back closer to less laggy areas in empire.
As said, I think both sides will have fun as long as things stay civil and respectful. Btw goons, if you're looking for more info on NSN you could view the NSN videos on the mc site or ask around or hunt through these forums. Plenty of info if you dig.

I think we need to focus less on whether goons are easy to kill, and whether or not they should be going to empire to fight the MC and more on the fact someone felt so threatened by them they had to pay for mercs, and not just run of the mill noobie mercs but expensive ones :)
I think if anything is going to cement these guys reputation as someone worth bothering about, AND at the same time give them the opportunity to fight against hopefully some great PVPers it's this.
TBH if I had the ISK and had thought about it, I would have done it as a valentines present for the Goons

I have personally lost a little less than 80m worth of assets (stupid implants) over the past three months. That's mostly because I'm and idiot, but still, I don't fly or buy anything I can't afford to lose. We're still out here having fun, making money, and gaining PvP experience. That's what being a goon is all about!
Anyways, I'm looking forward to some good fights in the near future, and I'm going to leave it at that.

Why donÆt you guys abandon the whole Merc thing when you run from a fight? Every time things donÆt go your way you fall back on the same BS reason. I guess that mindset is easy when you only seem to recruit balless chaps. Come back when you do something other than gank.

Pretty much. We have a core of (relative) vets who have anywhere from 6 months to a year or two of experience, and they fly a pretty wide range of stuff. They're a comparatively small fraction of our overall membership though.
Plus, even our older guys just enjoy frig blobs. It's a fun way to play eve. Low-stress, high-fun.

Those in charge of goonfleet should really advise their newer members of what EVE is all about, because smacktalking and bringing such attention to yourself in EVE does have real consequences unlike any other game. Sometimes that attention can be harmful..

Gooonfleet ftw. There is lot of players in goonfleet who from day one in eve start pvp and move to 0.0. Many of them have been living in 0.0 more than many veteran players in eve, so I think they deserve some credit for it. Lot of other new player would be whining on forums about how they need 20mil SP to have fun in eve.
Good luck & have fun both sides

Newsflash: 358 frigs on 1 BS is a gank no matter how you twist it and when facing 6:1 odds I dont think we can have a "fight" whitout getting "ganked" by the Goons. In other words...every kill the Goons score is a gank since they have to omgwtfblob like muppets just to get a kill
And we dont run from a fight, we can choose not to take the fight and that is something veeeeeery very different.

Given the huge amount of gasoline that has been thrown on this thread, I'm amazed it isn't blazing in flames.
There seems to have been a lot of misconceptions going around this thread about the role of mercenaries, so I'll chime in just briefly: they're not there to look good or provide entertainment. A mercenary force is there to satisfy the client ONLY and to do anything else would be displaying negligence with their client's money. The ultimate arbitrator of a contract's success or failure is always the client and no-one else.
I also think - could be wrong of course and correct me if I'm wrong - that some of the corporations you've faced and say are mercenaries have in fact been something else. Either they've misreprepsented themselves towards some purpose or whatever, but that kind of behaviour is actually quite typical.
Anyway, have fun with the war. I've at least respect for the whole Goonfleet concept and the sparks of smack in this thread haven't managed to destroy that.
Oh, and NSN, give 'em hell. It's not that you're outnumbered, it's just that you've found a target rich environment.

We have a couple of alternatives when answering this question..
1. Its a bug...they were actually killed in Str÷mstad (a small town in Sweden)but since we needed a more local touch (Eve) we had to rename the killmails so that it appeared thet they were killed in random systems around Empire.
or...
2. They were killed in Empire and not Syndicate beacuse we havent been into Syndicate yet cus of lagg...

Azaeren is not a newbie, he is just bitter. Our newbies are like kittens, they would never say bad things.
How does 206 plan to defeat us with merc corps when they aren't mustering enough forces to take on our frigate blobs? Getting some ganks is one thing, but if they want to get goonfleet out of syndicate like they have stated they better get enough forces to engage and defeat our fleets. With just one merc corp harassing us you guys will never have the numbers for a fair fight. No one can blame you for not wanting to go 48 on 12, but the numbers are always going to be stacked on our side like that. No one is going to win or lose here when there are no battles taking place.

Maybe for running the pipe with a hold full of zyd, but we actually discourage people from using stabbed frigs in fleet ops because there are about 10 modules that are more useful for tackling. People using stabs on frigs really are the minority in Goonfleet.

While your definition of a mercenary may be different than ours, we know of several corps who openly told us that they are being paid to attack us. In our books, that's a mercenary. Granted some of them are just pirate corps, but when money is tossed their way, they'll concentrate on a specific target. Other corps like Clankillers just hate us and attack us because of that.

This is why personally i have 3 different classes of mercenarys i refer to: Professional Mercs, PvP mercs and Pirate Mercs. There is often a difference in approach to contracts, clients and targets as well as ethics and so on.
The best way to tell if the merc corp is "for real" and in what kind of dooket they fit, is by their reputation which can only be built up over time - a la the professional mercenarys.

Well, we had to see what the fuzz was all about.
Wouldn't call it a good battle though. We tried our best to find ways to engage you with our 15 man strong gang but it was really hard.
I mean, the swarm. The swaaarm!! How many were you total at that gate? 70? 80? Many many many. And to engage that camp with 15 people where...hmm...challenging. But atleast we tried...over and over again.
Kudos for taking down 2 of our BS's. We all saw it coming, it was only a matter of time before you made that move . The commander of the day even said something like "**** it! We are probably gonna die but let's go anyway!" before going back in that time.
Well, atleast we checked out your little place and tried out the swarm. But in order for someone to earn a piece of Kladdkaka one needs to do some other plays than just the golden ratio.
I'm sure we will have many more encounters. Personally I hope they will be more exciting.
Until next time.

Sesfan, at some point in one of these threads, they pointed out that they are not here for excitement, they are fulfulling a contract to attack goonfleet. To that end, the typical sniping battleships and interceptor raids that 90% of our past enemies have used will prolly be the status quo for NSN too. Boring for us, but effective on popping unsuspecting corp members.

No, of course not, with odds like that sniping battleships are certainly sound tactically. But as he himself pointed it, it's not "exciting" or "fun" to sit around for three hours. We'll do it because it must be done, and we'll come out ahead (we killed two battleships fully kitted with tech 2 equipment and lost some frigates and a cruiser) but in the end it's really more of a waste of time than anything else. Also, every single time you come to Syndicate expect to be blobbed, the numbers we had sitting at that gate were really an average size for one of our groups.
Not smacktalking, just making a point.

They came for fun knowing full well the odds were against them, and the BS in that video certainly had a close range setup. (and cap boosters on minmatar ships... why?) Much respect to autocannon tempests.

Well, the mercenaries on contract don't really have choice about the fun, they're judged by their kill:loss ratio. (which is the reason i can't figure out why they accepted this particular contract, but that's another story)
Anyway, on the other hand it's not like GF has to outblob by such margins, when by own admission you realize perfectly well this will only result in boring engagement with ships sniping from relatively reasonable ranges. It's like one of your members pointed out, if you're seen as the underdog then it hardly matters if you win or lose, and tech.1 ships and gear aren't exactly significant financial blow, either. So might as well bring half the numbers thus allowing these of your members who participate to actually have fun, and get some training in other types of fights... otherwise complaining about lack of fun while actively contributing to that lack... there's a bit of hypocrisy in there ^^;;

Well, yeah. Heh, maybe we should set up some arranged matches, though I don't think their employers would appreciate that To be fair, I think NSN *has* managed to gank a fairly large number of us running back and forth solo in empire, but that's good, teaches people not to run solo in empire :P
You're right that we could use smaller numbers. But, then again, it's not like we chose this fight, so we can't really be blamed for using whatever tactics we have available.
I can't really figure out why NSN took the contract either; my general suspicion is just that they'd heard of us, figured it would be a different sort of challenge to fight, and decided to have a go at it. Which is certainly commendable. I do wonder what their employer expected this contract to accomplish though... .part of me thinks that the root cause of this is that the people who hired NSN got bored fighting us a long time ago, but still hold the grudge, so they keep hiring mercenaries to harass/camp us. But it's ultimately kinda boring and pointless work -- I mean, hell, we even use NPC stations, so it's not like we had a POS or any big targets for them to take out.
Ah well. Maybe if we can bore even NSN, the various other mercs out there will realize "fighting goonfleet won't be fun" and will stop taking these contracts. Then we can get back to whatever it is we do when we aren't wardec'd. Mining veldspar maybe? Been so long I don't remember!

Not really, no, and I don't blame NSN for using good tactics. But, hey, when someone comes to attack us, and we have eighty guys who want to jump to defend. . .I mean, it's not like we're the ones who brought the fight. I think it's fair to allow the defender choice of tactics.
Hrm. anyway. hopefully things will get more interesting in the future.

I have a small tip to Goonfleet...
If you rly want good and fun pvp you should split that blob into 3 gangs....Lets face it, until some1 like Robert or G decides to go down to Syndicate in numbers just to make a point you are not gonna get a blob to match yours.
The tactics we used tonight are the only thing you guys are gonna experiance (exept getting ganked when 1 of you flys around alone).
Its boring in the long run, hell, I have spent half my Eve "life" on safespots waiting for a fight that never came. Small to midsized gangs roaming around is fun and gives you a greater experiance and skill than just sitting still at a gate waiting for some1 to warp in outside you lockingrange.
It eventually will score you a kill or two like it did tonight but how fun was it...really??
As for the "neutrals" in your gang tonight....pfffft! Go and defend your "own" space :P

If you rly want good and fun pvp you should split that blob into 3 gangs . . . Small to midsized gangs roaming around is fun and gives you a greater experiance and skill than just sitting still at a gate waiting for some1 to warp in outside you lockingrange.-
We'll see what we can do =)

I wasn't present for that fight but those "neutrals" were probably our allies. They get so jealouswhen we pretty goonfleet types get all the attention.
The sniping battleships are the tactics i pretty much expect. stealth bombers too. Not exactly the manliest of tactics, but mercs don't get paid to be manly.
They get paid to be dead! ARRR!

You just wanted to use did't you :P
Tactics are tactics, to be fair. Every good strategic move any given side uses is going to be called cheap by the other side, it's all part of the game & the meta-game.

We're not the ones who started the war, NSN did. We're merely defending our territory with the maximum amount of force we can bring to bear...that's what we do. If NSN can't match our numbers then they should reconsider their strategy. They chose to attack us, not the other way around. We get plenty of small gang pvp on our own offensive patrols, but anybody who tries to enter our home system will encounter a huge gang. Also, the "neutrals" who were in our gang were our allies who are more than happy to defend our space with us.

I'd recommend to you goonfleet types to make BMs at all the gates you blob at 100k and 200k from the gate in a clockwise pattern.
That way when the battleships warp in to snipe you can have multiple frigs warp out to 100k' 3 oclock or to 200k 7 oclock or whatever sector they have warped in at to engage before they can run off. It takes time to get the BMs set but once you have them the sniping thing becomes a mute point, either they come to fight or they come to die, you get to choose which it is that they do.

It was nice to have a proper Engagement.
I fully expected the fight to go down the way it did. You guys are not going to engage close range, and we are not going to sit and get sniped at long range. We were both trying to sway the field of battle to engage on our terms, waiting for the other side to make a mistake.

I don't think it is possible for Goonfleet to engage in smaller numbers than they did. If they split into smaller groups or had just a smaller defense party then the others who werent in it would just get ganked in their home system when they are mining or ratting. When people invade peaceful corps who only have one system its not like people have much choice whether to choose to defend it or not.

Goonfleet op leaders do indeed having anti-sniper gate bookmarks like you say, but using covops to get warp ins is so much more fun :)
Respect to NSN for coming up the pipe and engaging us, we're always around so you know where to find us if you want a rematch. I and my forces are waiting :)

Glad to see there are new people fighting, with heart, to make their claim around those rich NPC station crokite fields.

Just a comment on the economic consequences of the contract:
If the merc's sponsor is more concerned about economic impact, then the contract is running a lot more successfully than it might seem. T1 frig losses mean nothing, of course, but if it only takes 15 pilots to tie up 80+ pilots for an hour, that is a lot of lost opportunity cost. 80 goon miners crank out boatloads of zyd in an hour that is not going to 5/BOS/LWTAX.
Maybe it's not the employer's intent, but it occurs to me that they might be very happy with the results so far even if NSN does not have many meaningful kills to show for it.
I'm curious about the lag in these circumstances - does anything even render?

Lag is generally exactly as bad as you'd expect it to be.
Otherwise, there's some truth to what you say, but the other side is that any given number of belts only have so much crokite/omber/etc.. in them, and generally speaking we mine all the available high-end ores out pretty regularly even when there are hostiles. Of course, some individual GF members are still going to be inconvenienced and annoyed, especially our more casual players who might've only had those hours available to mine, and now instead that ore will get mined by someone who's there 24/7. And there are lower ores that won't get mined as much (veldspar lol, etc.)
So yes, lost opportunity costs are something to consider here, but the effect is smaller than one might think just due to the high number of GF people mining and the limited nature of available resources.

It will be interesting to see how all this will unfold, especially if NSN's client doesn't make the usual mistake when mercs are involved: not keeping up the pressure long enough.
I have been in some scraps with Goonfleet. A memorable one was a big fleet battle in Reblier during an empire war with goonfleet and [5]. Another fun incident was a 2 vagabonds VS 8 goonfleet (2 ceptors,2 frigs and some cruisers/BCs) fight we had late one night. From my experience it IS possible for a small gang of older players to take on goonfleet with success. Especially if you take care to minimize your financial risk.
I was feeling suicidal enough that day and went for a ride in my HAC (thankfully we both survived), but for a prolonged campaign i would fly something far more effective isk-wise, like a fully t1 kitted autocannon/plate rupture. There are a lot of NPC stations in syndicate. I bet a wealthy corp like NSN can stock up on LOADS of t1 cruisers with t1 fittings in one of those stations.
This way, a 15 man gang can engage, kill 20-30 people, return to said NPC station after losing their ships, undock in new ones, rinse and repeat. I think it's a highly effective way to maintain some neccessary pressure without losing more than what you kill.

Trust me. For every 80 member gang, there's still a decent number of people still mining away keeping our belts clean of crok. And honestly, every fight is going to be unbalanced unless it's a formalized 'fun fight' or something. You'd be stupid not to go with every advantage you can muster. I do think it's incredible that eve is setup in which mercenary groups exist and thrive. I find it quite a compliment that someone would hire someone against us, but what kind of people care enough to pay money for someone else to annoy us instead of bearing the fight themselves? We hardly seem to be a profitable venture considering we have nothing of much value to destroy. Maybe GoonFleet should go into the merc business...
Props to this thread for avoiding the ****hole vortex.

Interesting idea, even one guy in s-u could theoretially slow down mining in the system by attacking people in belts and not getting himself killed
But this is all theory of course

This is infact very much doable.
Since the Goons cant think for themselves (they are beeees afterall) they must rely on a queen (KIATolon?) to do the thinking. So, If the queen decides that camping a gate whit 80 ships is a good idea the helpless little drones (Goonfleet) also think that it is a good idea.
However, somtimes a lone drone gets away from the swarm and decides that the queen is a ***** and for a few minutes gets a hold of his mind.
We found one of these free thinking individuals in a belt in S-U when the rest of the swarm was playing hug the gate and run from the snipers game...
The lonley brave Goon was npcing in his mighty Caracal and was doing a fine job bullying the npc population when a couple of NSN pilots thought that the "pirates" could use some help. So, they jump in to the belt expecting a grim fight from the mighty Goon. The Goon however used a strange tactic...as soon as the rescuers (NSN) enterd the belt he ejected from his ship and ran back to the hive....I guess the queen finally missed him :(

Can you please elaborate on why showing a little patience and camping the only exit with our full strength is a bad idea? Leading (for the most part) a bunch of 1 week to 2 month old newbies is like herding cats, but remarkably, the only goons who got killed during that op were unlucky enough to be called primary or just stupid enough to be AFK when we got the order to warp out.
I'll take patience rewarded with two good kills over impatience rewarded with us getting podded, thanks.

Coz eventually your 80+ man gang will be bored to death with this. What I don't understand is that you fly t1 ships, and yet you are so afraid to loose them that you have to outgank ppl 8:1, or more. Just some advice down the line. Change your tactics or you will loose members rapidly once they grew bored of being a 1 system bee hive.... Then again, to each his own...

And you don't get bored of hiding out in a safespot until your covops gives you a good warp in point, only to gank 1, maybe 2 stragglers? I don't see much of a difference between the two of us from that standpoint.
Originally by: Dracolich What I don't understand is that you fly t1 ships, and yet you are so afraid to loose them that you have to outgank ppl 8:1, or more.
We fly a lot of T1 ships but that doesn't mean we have to throw them away by getting sniped from 180km. If we couldn't get a good warp in on you we bailed instead of hanging around to get shot. As for 8:1 odds, the gang was about 80-70 against 15, so it's more like 5:1 odds. But that's completely irrelevant because our corp members are defending our home system, which you have to be prepared for if you declare war and invade someone.

It's been this way for the past 3 months and people aren't exactly leaving in droves. Not to mention they actually like hanging out in a system where you can mine top end ore, rat, do missions, and PvP isn't too hard to come by. Our members are free to go anywhere they want at any time (providing we respect our NAP/allies wishes) but we have everything we need at home.

I'll say that regardless of how I feel about 206/CONIN/CI (I do respect some of them a great deal), they did give us many fair fights, and we learned a ton from fight them. It was very common for them to have several more battleships than we did, but we outnumbered them by thirty people (we were much smaller then).

Well I believe there is a 5 mil isk to the person who finds a missing kill/loss mail after 48 hours of the incident occured. I did however spam the kill mail today, so it seems that I killed Velette 3 times instead of once, but I hope it will be fixed.

I am sure the MC has killed people with 15-1 (and more), nothing strange really. Though it is nothing we strive to make happen, but it happens. A kill is a kill even though I on a personal level would prefer "fair fights".
Fair fights are very very rare nowadays. But they occur from time to time and makes this game even better.
This discussion is totally pointless. GoonFleet does what they think is best to handle the situation from their perspective. NSN does what we think is best to achieve our clients goals.
This thread was good as long as we simply stated facts about the situation, now it has gone from that to throwing pie at eachother. Totally pointless and I won't have it from either side.
People need to change attitude or stfu. If not, the mods can aswell lock this thread.

Dracolich, you are coming to the forums and complaining about goonfleet using the main advantage that they have (numbers).

Just like you say to others, that you arent there to give good fights, you are their to fulfill a contract. Well they are defending home turf.

I would ask one thing of each corp.
NSN, please don't get into the numbers thing, goons will bring everything they have available to an engagement in s-u. Outside s-u it might be a bit less. This was previously dicussed.
Goonfleet, please don't complain that you aren't getting the great close in fights that you want. Too many involved in a fight can lead to use of tactics like that.
Its a dichotomy really. While as mercs, we're there to kill you for someone else, not to give you kills/ganks to enjoy, we really do like good stand up fights and if given the chance will jump at them jut as any PvPer would. There's something to be said for a quick easy kill, but its another thing to go head to head.

:p :p :p :p
Now that youÆve gone All thatÆs left is a band of gold All thatÆs left of the dreams I hold Is a band of gold And the memories Of what love could be If you were Still here with me
You took me from the shelter of a mother I had never known The love of any other We kissed after taking vows But that night on our honeymoon We stayed in separate rooms
I waited in the darkness of my lonely room Filled with sadness, filled with gloom Hoping soon That youÆd walk back through that door And love me Liked you tried before
Since youÆve been gone All thatÆs left is a band of gold All thatÆs left of the dreams I hold Is a band of gold And the dream of what love could be If you were still here with me
Since youÆve been gone All thatÆs left is a band of gold All thatÆs left of the dreams I hold Is a band of gold

Originally by: Dracolich We try to adapt to you not vice versa. And I wasnt trying to smack you, just give you some clue about what might happen to your corp in the future.
I know you're not trying to be insulting, but there's flat out no other way to counter BSes outfitted like yours besides the "warp in or run" tactic without sustaining heavy losses. People are told when they join defense gangs that they'd better be prepared to sit patiently on a gate or leave the op. We won't win without patience.
Originally by: Dracolich Sure.. I just thought u like to have fun, and t1 frigs is really nothing to write home about loosing, just some free advice.
I don't know how I can say this any clearer: We're not stingy with T1 ships, but we're not going to throw them away by flying at you in a straight line when you're at 6 times the range of a warp disruptor.
Originally by: Dracolich Except fun even fights. 3 months isnt long. But Cheers... Cu in space(or whatever).
Well I guess that's up to opinion. After reading about your guys rep and joining the defense op, I found even the hit and run engagements in S-U pretty fun, because it felt like we were making you work for your paycheck.

Tis our birthday outing. Goons like to bring the tech1 zerge fleet so we thought we'd go down there and get a fight. Proved to be worthwhile

I'm really not sure why you bothered to post this, it's pure and simple flaming in a relatively friendly thread. Keep it off the forums please.

Edited by: Fu Man''chu on 18/02/2006 17:57:36 For those keeping track, it appears that NSN has had to call in other MC corps (Body Count and Sharks) to help in the attack against GoonFleet. However their losses are'nt showing up on their killboard stats for the war when we kill them...
Also interesting how how only kills with the final blow performed by goonfleet is counted toward your losses against goonfleet yet any kill that any MC corp gets against goonfleet is counted towards losses regardless of who got the killmail. |

I find it interesting looking at the NSN killboard and the Goonfleet killboard... seems there are two Cerb losses missing from NSNs, and on top of that they seem to be assuming all GF ships are equipped with T2 junk.
That's all I can figure out from their wierd isk numbers, anyways O_o
If your killboard assumes opponents are using just T2 and best named stuff, you should fix it. Everyone knows GF uses nothing but T1 junk 99% of the time.

Although i dislike responding to such obvious flamebait/bollox posts, i have fixed the killboard (which is very easily done) so that the losses show on the contract page
I have also already stated the other MC corps have come to play cos we felt like doing something fun this weekend rather than making isk/carebear stuff and as it was our birthday and NSN were already busy with you guys, we thought we'd come say hi. NSN neither had to, nor did they, ask for our help

Our killboard goes purely by ISK insurance payout amount. Equipment is not taken into account at all, on both sides, its how much ISK is paid in insurance, and it works both ways before you start *****ing about that aswell. When we kill a HAC, we only get 17mil isk, and the same when we lose one. Its been debated many times before and this is, in my opinion, the fairest way to do it

Well, you thought wrong.. I've been following the progress of the whole goonfleet/NSN war after reading this thread and all the promises of the bee's..
Up until the rest of the MC joined in, NSN was beating goonfleet by a long shot.

I am still trying to figure out why MC is not listing all their losses anymore (Ceberus anyone) and why non-goonfleet ships (even enemies of goonfleet apparently) killed in syndicate are now being counted towards the contract. Seems like ship valuations are a bit off as well.
Must be that new math stuff at work.

i wish we could all get a long tho. please i am so poor, i have been living off corp frigates for almost too months now, please leave s-u alone for a while so i can mine and make some money please. it took all my savings to buy an omen and i almost lost that last night in y9g
i liked fighting the french because i could practice my french with them. i just entered the fifte grade and im learning foren languages now.
i hate war because it means that getting skillbooks is hard and i need to buy so many, please just let me learn i just want to make some freinds online and people just keep messing it up

Interesting as i thought this was a "Was NSN beating goonfleet before the rest of the MC joined in." well.. that piccy was taken after the rest of the MC had joined in for our birthday bash. How do we know this.. that piccy shows 4 battleship losses to us.. yet the MC started to party with goonfleet on friday. And well the forth battleship loss didn't happen until saturday.. So nice try.
Oh and well for the record NSN was winning in both kills and ISK only by 100 million isk wise, but the whole isk thing seems so important to many people.

Thats one of two you guys apparently lost - neither of which is listed here:
http://bdci.killboard.net/?p=contracts_details&id=63
Which was exactly my point.
It does help to look, you should try it.

You asked for the killmail ... i showed you it. And if your going to try and make little digs, please be original.. Parrot retorts shows that you lack the imagination to really get things going.. Now running along you little scamp.

Okay guys, please take the kill board discussions elsewhere. If there is an MC killboard inaccuracy you think is there, please regigister at the MC forums and post your mail evidence and we'll investigate it. If it's real, we'll pay out to your character, as we state on our board.
NSN's client will decide if he's happy or not what what occured, and we'll (FRICK/BDCI/TC) personally decide if our birthday bash was a good laugh.

Edited by: Ithildin on 18/02/2006 23:04:07 Also, a little FYI: the killboard has a few issues (edit: in this case displaying) with some of the ships, like Cerberus it seems.
We are eagerly awaiting the next version of the killboard. Since it is rented space, we can not take full responsibility for it's functionality.
