1) How does Goonswarm maintain influential control over the entire game? 2) What drives them to destroy the game? 3) Why are they unstoppable? 4) Why can't all the powerful alliances team up and end Goonswarm once and for all? 5) How does one kill a Goon?
1) Lots of F1 monkeys. And they don't control the entire game. They've been repeatedly kicked out of wormholes, their less intelligent members regularly die to incompetent war deccers in hisec (same is true of every alliance though) , and at most they control half of nullsec. So at best maybe 15%-25% of the game, if even that.
2) They aren't really destroying the game. They're probably a net positive, while they may do things I disagree with (*cough* doxxing *cough*), overall they've probably helped the game more than they hurt it e.g. tracking titan nerfs, super nerfs, and getting a gaming media sh*t storm rolling on incarna/summer of rage.
3) Lot's of F1 monkeys. But they're not unstoppable. Wormhole dwellers stomped them repeatedly. Likewise, their renter empire (Greater Western ...) is bleeding members slowly, but consistently due to ongoing harassment from a slew of entities.
4) They lack either the raw power or the willpower to do so. Sov warfare sucks because ~insert narrative of choice~. Also, treaties.
5) Interceptors work. So do bombers and blops, but I prefer intys. |

Your posting is as bad as your alliance. Two things: 1) Don't insult my posting like that. 2) Making fun of people who's first language is clearly not English is truly a sign of good posting and sophistication. Keep it up! |

Why hit a strong opponent head on, when you can nibble at their attention whoring (irrelevant) flanks who come out and warble? The CFC is the weakspot. It's populated with some of the biggest free-loading, risk-averse sandcastle builders in the game. I remember a lot of them from the NC (because they were bads).
This is accurate, if you want to hit them, hit them in their weakest links. |
