If you want a more culturally modernized version of the GSF wiki, replace all instances of "***" with "sperg" for what should be a fairly authentic experience.

If you want a more culturally modernized version of the GSF wiki, replace all instances of homophobic slang with a random selection from "sperg", "autist", or "Widot member" for what should be a fairly authentic experience.

Goonswarm players originated from a hellhole called the Something Awful forums, a beautiful place of trolls, dicks, cyber hobgoblins and so on. Somewhere in 2006 they migrated to EVE Online with only one purpose: wreck the game. Nope they came here to wreck your game, there's no point in them killing a game that they clearly enjoy. Quote:Example: I was out mining in nullsec when this Goon comes in a Sabre and blows up my ship. "No neutrals on Goonswarm turf", he said. Strange thing was that we were 48 jumps away from the GSF's borders. Second of all, they have absolutely no moral principles and no sense of reason. You were in nullsec, he didn't need an excuse to blow you up, that he claimed you were on goonswarms turf is irrelevant. Quote:A friend of mine lost his Rhea to a Goonswarm suicide gank. "Why would they gank you? Your hold was empty", I asked. Because it might not have been empty is as good an excuse as any, odds are that a JF is carrying something.

Anyways, let's not forget the reason why we're here and try not to derail off the topic. Summary: Goonswarm is a collection of trolling, homophobic and racist scum this game has ever seen. While the last two listed are not illegal, they are morally wrong and the consequences could be tragic. Goonswarm is also creating a hostile new-player environment, which has scared off quite a few Trialees. Let us not forget the Burn Jita Burn events where those thrice-damned Goons ganked en masse every ship in Jita, which is in 0.9 SECURITY SPACE. No place is safe from these cut-throat scum.
Moral of the game: Do NOT trust a Goon, do not interact with a Goon, and do NOT join any CFC / Goonswarm Federation-affiliated corporation if you want the game to remain beautiful. Robert Sawyer, industrialist and anti-CFC advocate. |

Not sure if trolling at V with T2 Trolling rigs and trolling mods in the lows or actually THAT mad about goons... but...
Burn Jita is awesome. And if you are adversely affected by it (for christ sake, they ANNOUNCE the date!) you have failed.

Well sir, I am sorry that you live in a country where you can be arrested for an idea. I dont personally condone either of those practices, but when you restrict freedom of thought, thats a hell of a bigger problem than a few nasty words.

If you think it's a bigger problem to at least have some restrictions to freedom of speech then full freedom of speech then you're REALLY one ignorant fool.Political freedom of speech aye , complete freedom of speech is just waiting for **** to hit the fan.

Personal opinion, but censoring speech never seems to work, cuz the hate is still there.
I like my bigots and homophobes and such to be mouthy. Makes identifying them for amusing bouts of shaming that much easier.
Random factoid: Alan Turing, the father of modern computing, was gay. Pretty badly abused by the British government, even after the amazing stuff he did in WW2. It gets the homophobic quite riled up when you mention that basically every modern convenience they depend on to spew hatred came about due to a gay man. This thread officially has 25% more pssssssshhh than leading competitors. Rick Moranis was never put on death row for shrinking his children. New York exists outside the mind of Billy Joel. A French press is not lifting weights with your tongue out. Lena Dunham is not a girl ventriloquist. |

The 'muricans in this thread like to bang on about how they have freedom of speech - except they don't.
They aren't free to shout Fire! in a crowded theatre (or they are if they don't mind getting locked up, but the freedom to be locked up isn't what I would call freedom).
They aren't free to phone up the local airport and claim to be from Al Q'aida and issue a bomb warning.
So please stop drivelling on about how you have freedom of speech and us euros live under oppression blah blah.
On topic : the stuff the OP is on about is just teenagers who like to be controversial. I won't condemn them for that as I've said stuff back then that I wouldn't do now. |

I do remember reading on the Goonswarm forums of a sig especially for LGTB people. And i know the sig for women (yes we do have women in Goonswarm) also gladly accepts transgenders associating with the female gender. So i think the homophobia in goons is perhaps a tad exagerated.
I have heard far worse in this respect in some other alliances where i used to be part of or had a SPAI account in. And those were not exactly in the CFC (far from it). *Snip* Removed trolling part of the post. ISD Ezwal.*Snip* *Snip*-áPlease refrain from personal attacks.

Wow.
My post wasnt an attack, I am genuinely sorry your country persecutes based on ideas. Your opinion of complete freedom of speech notwithstanding, thousands of people across the entire planet have FOUGHT and DIED for the very principle of it. How about you think about that before you call a complete stranger an ignorant fool on a game forum, eh?

Sigh.
Freedom of speech means that I am allowed to have my own opinion, and voice that opinion, if I choose to do so. Not that I may make fake emergency calls or cause a public panic.
So please, if your going to make a counterpoint (by all means), please have something sensible to say. Because that.... wasnt... Killboard

Never been a Goon, but I've flown with a few Goons in my time, and find them generally to be among the least homophobic people I've encountered in online gaming.
Which isn't to say they are perfect, but by god they are nowhere near as bad as the highsec miner that recently EVEmailed me to say they want to see me molested in prison by 'a pack of (vile racial slur)s'. https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=346564 - a proposal to overhaul the Logistics skill https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=238931 - an idea for a new form of hybrid PVE/PVP content. www.minerbumping.com - ganking miners and causing chaos |

I think you all need to take a refresher on the game's OFFICIAL RULES:
http://community.eveonline.com/support/policies/eve-tos/
Let's all take note of:
Quote: You may not use any abusive, defamatory, ethnically or racially offensive, harassing, harmful, hateful, obscene, offensive, sexually explicit, threatening or vulgar language. (Alternate spelling or partial masking of such words will be reprimanded in the same manner as the actual use of such words.)
Quote: You may not organize nor be a member of any corporation or group within EVE Online that is based on or advocates any anti-ethnic, anti-gay, anti-religious, racist, sexist or other hate-mongering philosophies.
I'm not taking sides or anything, just stating that it's in the rules. Just be careful what you say! |
