This is why we need a downvote button on Eve-o. I'd rather not be a psycho and stalk people in RL over a video game, if its all the same to you mate.
And the goons are the "bad guys"? Never heard this kind of deranged RL life threat **** from a goon. ... |

EVE Rule No1 Trust no one. 100% percent of the victims of scams, corp thefts, intel leaks, alliance thefts, and awoxings violated it. Is it possible to make a sticky about known scams that new players should be aware of? Could be really helpful for new players Ok, you can get them to use this; EvE is a game where, if you are not paying attention, you WILL get scammed. Does that work for you? Including elaborate scams from the recruitment channels such as finding your LF corp message and convoing you so that there is no way for CCP to track them down by their own add? NO Happened to me and CCP did absolutely nothing. Many, many new players including myself joined Eve because of shiny spaceships, not because they wanted to research how to now get scammed in a new MMO. Its just something people generally don't anticipate as acceptable in an MMO because in-game scamming is generally not acceptable in other MMOs.
This isn't another MMO and is explicitly advertised as being a dystopian world filled to the brim with villains. HTH.

Judging from your tone, it's no wonder that you feel eve is a lion's Den. It can definitely be a hostile game to get into but i don't see how your opinion matters on who should play this game or not. Just because eve is currently a game that makes you happy and obviously attached to it as you defend its state so ferociously, does not mean your word carries the definition on how it should be in the long run.
LMAO See guys, i was right, this guy is just about everything I've ever talked about on these forums EVE isn't a Lion's den for those who are aware. I typed that in plain English. It's a lion's den for folks like you. As for my opinion on who should play the game or not, it is not common sense? Should a person who hates WWII era armored combat play World of Tanks? Should a person who thinks that Elf's and mages and being able to turn into a bear is stupid play WoW? Should a hard core communist subscribe to a game called "Reganomics Online' (lol)? If a game doesn't make you happy, why play it when other games exist that might make you happy? That's why people like you are absolutely exasperating to folks like me lol. But the part I bolded tells the ENTIRE story here. It suggests that you think EVE should be some way other than it is in the future. Why? Why should EVE cater to people who can't Google? Why should EVE change because some people (hell, most gamers) are incapable of being honest with themselves about who they are (thus making them unable to make informed entertainment software and pass time choices)? Just tell me why dang it
Um...who said anything about hating eve? Dang i love eve with all the scammers included. You're just dying to make your point and asking for attention on the forums reassuring yourself that you are right.

my original reply was to this post. the op explains in the first post he wasn't trying to join goonwaffe, he was trying to join a six-member corp. i'm just having fun counting the posts that criticise the op for not googling goonwaffe recruitment or not knowing that goonwaffe recruits from an outside community when they're showing at the same time they didn't read the post they're criticising.
that's it. that's the joke. hahaha. |

Man this forum post has really become popular, so glad people got some type of happiness or joy out of my mistake and ignorance. Everyone is right I should have googled it, for future corporations that I may join I will.

When I applied to Northstar Cabal my contact there told me that a corp jump freighter would move all my stuff from Jita to nullsec. I thought, "hahahahah, like I'd fall for that." Turns out it was completely true. I could have trusted them with my worldly possessions, on the other hand, I didn't lose anything by being cautious.

Joke is on him if it is Preencleeve again. Still. Kid seems to be interested in politics (he's a youth mayor or some such) - I don't know how he thinks an easily-linked online persona attached to threats, harassment and fraud (no, I'm not talking about in-game actions) will shake out for him when he tries to move beyond ceremonial positions and blogging, but as a personal word of advice - I suggest you leave the creepy online alter-ego behind you and try to make something of your real life.

If by horseshit then you mean truth? Then yes, the only kind of people that play a video game for the sole purpose of ruining someone else's experience are the kind of people that have ****** lives in real life, like Goons. The world would be a better place if they all just mass suicided. |

You know, I've encountered real and i mean real life actual bad people in my life (and not just due to my job, when i was a kid there was an actual honest to God cross burning near where I lived) and I'm not butt hurt enough about it to sling 2nd grade insults from behind the double anonymity of an npc corp alt on a video game forum lol. Goons are not magic, you're playing a video game with guns, if you don't like them stop being rather....feline.... about it and kill them if you don't like them. I do .
Lets see, you call what I said a 2nd grade insult. (thats a 2nd grade insult in itself, so good job with being a hypocrit!), you talk about insults from behind the double anonymity of an npc corp alt (this is actually my main, I just don't want to dedicate myself to a corp and like flying solo, and also anyone on the internet hides behind anonymity or have you just discovered this magical thing called the interwebs?)
You say I should just go shoot the Goons... sure, do you even play EvE? Goons might all be scummy douchebags but they have numbers and experience and isk on their side. Just because someone can't physically (virtually?) fight doesn't make their voice and opinion less valid, Goons are scum and it's that simple, there is years of evidence to support this. Whether they hide behind the veil of "it's just a video game" or "we're just RPing bad guys" it doesn't really matter. |

Sure, kid. Anyone that actually calls them self rich over the internet obviously isn't. And even if you do have money, posting about it to try and defend yourself shows how much of a insecure douchebag you are in real life that you have to grief in a video game to get your kicks. |
