Doireen Kaundur 840	Posted - 2014.04.29 02:13:00 - [1] - Quote No troll...asking seriously. A great American humorist and author recently said: "The one unintentional flaw of the internet generation is its ability to give the stupidest segments of our population the loudest voices." I have a tendency to agree with his statement.-á
Liam Inkuras Chaotic Tranquility 954	Posted - 2014.04.29 02:16:00 - [2] - Quote To enforce the rule of the glorious socialist dictatorship known as Goonswarm. And tears, those too I guess. I wear my goggles at night. Any spelling/grammatical errors come complimentary with my typing on a phone
Doireen Kaundur 841	Posted - 2014.04.29 02:19:00 - [3] - Quote But doesnt disrupting commerce in Jita (a main trade hub) just increase the price of everything in the long run?

Pix Severus School of Applied Knowledge Caldari State 832	Posted - 2014.04.29 02:20:00 - [4] - Quote Fun. This game isn't all about ISK/hour.
Sabriz Adoudel Mission BLITZ 2753	Posted - 2014.04.29 02:21:00 - [5] - Quote Alliance morale was GSF's strategic goal. Keep the line members interested and engaged with the game so they keep logging in. Set the universe on fire - then sell the survivors ash. https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=238931 - an idea for a new form of hybrid PVE/PVP content.

Doc Fury Furious Enterprises 5001	Posted - 2014.04.29 02:31:00 - [11] - Quote for the lulz Also, there was a rumor there would be these: The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the ho's and politicians will look up and shout 'Save us!' and I'll look down, and whisper 'Hodor'.
Doireen Kaundur 841	Posted - 2014.04.29 02:36:00 - [12] - Quote Sad though that there arent enough superpowers in EVE to keep the giants busy at each other's necks instead of ganking Jita. Oh well.

Oh well. That's because about 70% of the playerbase is too stupid to organize.

Jonah Gravenstein Machiavellian Space Bastards 18146	Posted - 2014.04.29 02:49:00 - [17] - Quote To burn the ships they had left over from last year. This too. Pix Severus wrote: Fun. This game isn't all about ISK/hour. Never go full Ripard
stoicfaux 4655	Posted - 2014.04.29 02:59:00 - [18] - Quote It's done for the same reason that people climb Mount Everest; to achieve immortal glory by overcoming one of nature's most extreme challenges while sherpas carry your stuff. WASABI: Warp Acceleration System Ancillary Boost Injected(Gäó)

Kind'a shooting yourself in the foot for the lulz, no? The amount of damage done looks impressive however its just a dent in the amount that moves through Jita everyday.

Kind'a shooting yourself in the foot for the lulz, no? Goons just produce their stuff in their home systems. So any pricerise will be positive for them since they can sell their stuff for more. The corp/alliance's ships will just stay the same price since it has nothing to do with jita.

KuroVolt The Legion of Spoon Curatores Veritatis Alliance 1832	Posted - 2014.04.29 03:51:00 - [26] - Quote Its basically EVE christmas. BoBwins Law: As a discussion/war between two large nullsec entities grows longer, the probability of one comparing the other to BoB aproaches near certainty.
Corpii Herald West Khanid Blooding Enthusiasts 4	Posted - 2014.04.29 07:41:00 - [27] - Quote Fun. Emergent gameplay. Whoring on freighter killmails. Especially the first one. I'd have to check the website for it, but IIRC over 50 billion worth in freighter hulls + assets were destroyed in the main market hub of the game over the weekend. That's the kind of emergent content that makes headlines, and is why the Goons should be praised for doing what they do. The fun that came with shooting dudes too ignorant to follow the metagame was a plus as well.
Shepard Wong Ogeko GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 739	Posted - 2014.04.29 07:46:00 - [28] - Quote Threads like this are the reason why we do Burn Jita. Sure, tears are great and all. But the desert is the wild speculation and conspiracy theories afterwards.
Ramona McCandless The McCandless Clan Council of Peace and Prosperity 3723	Posted - 2014.04.29 07:49:00 - [29] - Quote Because it had ripened and started to rot on the branch * Vote MTU For CSM * *Free The Jita 1* "They feel the need to cover their ears and eyes in horror at your very presence." - Pontianak Sythaeryn "Despite others being missing, at least Ramona is back." - Scipio Artelius
Karen Avioras Unsung Heroes The Volition Cult 463	Posted - 2014.04.29 07:51:00 - [30] - Quote To make people cherish days when Jita isn't burning
