So does this mean "stop posting" is the new "post with your main"?
Regardless, I don't see our posting policies making much of a practical difference in the discourse on this forum. Most of our opponents will still view us through the most negative lens possible and keep plucking the worst facts out of context to justify their opinion. So as much as we can prattle on about how morale is great, we love GoonSwarm, and we are thrilled to be flying alongside Sparta, people are still going to think we're on the verge of tearing ourselves apart and hanging our allies out to dry.
Edit- May as well take the opportunity to thank D2 for all the fights, you guys are fun to fly against.

I disagree, I think this will allow all of eve to see that we aren't a faceless bunch of mindless thugs, but a group of 2500-ish people, all different with a strong goal in mind.
I was mainly referring to the usual selection of forum superstars that tend to frequent GoonSwarm threads, since they tend to set the tone of those discussions.

Originally by: Body Count I think the hostility is due to your own actions. Goonfleet came out of nowhere with hostilities to NORAD and D2. You come out of nowhere attacking established groups with players who've been in Eve since it's inception.
If you expect people to ask permission and give warning before launching offensives, you may lack critical thinking skills.

Oh wow. You really need to edit this point before the discussion goes into disscussions about 500 drones, and 100 cargo cans. Do so and I'll edit mine as well
You're precious. You certainly could trot out the same tired myths, and I'm sure goons would be willing to debunk them and address them point-by-point again, but then we'd just be going in circles. The truth is, EVE doesn't need much any help to lag to hell when massive fleets are throwing themselves at each other, the lag sword has cut both ways, and I have never heard or seen anyone directly order or allude to the use of lag tactics in our operations. End of story.

You are held in complete comtempt by 100% of the goonfleet goon community. I can't think of a single goon inside of goonfleet that doesn't absolutley despise you.
Is this intentionally ironic? I can't tell.

So what exactly was thier purpose then? They just sat there.
Which was why once we realized it was going to be a long ranged fight, we scooped them before we engaged.

tl;dr fighting outnumbered at your own POS is not likely to win you or any other alliance many brownie points
The reason we're bringing it up is the fact we're being accused of "blobbing" and lag exploits at battles where we've been outnumbered, rather than a desire for brownie points, though I do think our fleet commanders did an excellent job of maximizing the effects of the POS's support.
