And justify the reasoning people post on Reddit instead of EVE-O anyway? If ISD's weren't so over the top with moderation we would have a 20 page war thread in CAOD...so I guess if CCP really wants people to not talk about the biggest thing going on in EVE right now on their own website sure ISD's should definitely close it.

I've felt for a while that it would probably be a good thing for this game if the CFC/Imperium disbanded or imploded. Never said it publicly since, you know, I was a member. But now that I'm out it's fun watching it happen from an outsider's perspective.

so you want EvE players to go reddit instead of the official forums to discus game related things?
what's the use of this forum then?

I was around in 2011, when PL teamed up with basically all of nullsec, killed the Northern Coalition, and took essentially all Goon space except Deklein. Goonswarm had its space back and then some a few weeks later, and the alliance that tried to kill them was shattered.
I was also around and nice narrative, but not quite.
Goons lost their space down south and eventually ended up crashing on Tau Ceti Federation's couch. TCF was slowly rotting from the inside out, so Goons kinda picked up Deklein. TCF was part of the then Northern Coaltion (not the alliance). Goons were kind of like an adjunct member, IMO. They were blue and they shared quite a bit, but they still had alot of independence, again IMO.
Around that time the Drone Region Federation (DRF for short; made up of White Noise, Raiden. and a few other alliances) basically got into a pissing match with the Northern Coalition (NC, note not NC.), can't remember who in the NC started it, but they basically moved on an entry system to the drone regions.
Things got out of hand and the the DRF made use of their huge super numbers and brought in PL. Eventually the NC lost even though Goons were helping them. The DRF stopped at the borders of Deklein. Eventually the DRF settled into their new digs, started renter alliances, etc. They got fat and happy and leadership to a large extent went AFK.
Goons noticed the rot taking hold and decided to invade. Started off, IIRC, Goons and some allies moving into Branch and Tenal with TEST and other Goon allies making a feint into Tribute. Once Branch and Tenal fell, so did Tribute and Vale of the Silent. The DRF were pretty much toast and alliances that used to live in the Drone regions made their move to take back their "homelands".
So it wasn't "Goonswarm space" intially, but the old NC. Razor, Morsus Mihi, etc.

No.

While true, all be it revisionist. Mittani didn't have much to do with that, despite being credited in a comic book. According to a former GS CEO DariusJOHNSON, Mittani himself was nothing more than a fly on the wall for the planning stages of the actual "headshot".

Quote:
My memory isn't the greatest but if I recall correctly Haargoth was found out by Tamir. Tamir then went to Mittani and was like "Hey I have a guy". It is accurate that Mittani planned a corp theft. It is not accurate however that he conceived of anything that followed. XTTZ, who was a GENIUS when it came to game mechanics (having abused motherships to hold regions solo, caused numerous changes to the test server due to our use of information disclosures such as where BoB's titan blueprints were stored) is who I believe realized we could disband the alliance. Only then was the plan changed and it culminated in a voice comm channel (don't recall what we used at the time) with myself, Vile Rat, Tamir, Mittani, XTTZ and Haargoth. I can't recall if anyone else was present. Graham might have been and he'll get more credit later. Suffice it to say I should have been less dismissive when immediately Mittani's first response was "Oh my god I just disbanded bob". Not sure anyone there can validate given their current status but these are facts.
Which I believe because I don't remember Mittani being relevant in the community, outside an easily trolled CAOD poster, until after Kartoon imploded GS and DariusJOHNSON handed the keys to car after getting it set up in Deklein with TCF.
But thats irrelevant because it happend 7 years ago, and honestly who gives a **** about something a guy claims to have been a big part of 7 years ago. He ain't doing **** right now except get trolled hard and spaz out. It is funny to watch, best meltdown in EVE ever. |

Yes, you're right, it was Nosy who came up with Casino War.
Tbh, Casino War sounds way better than Mittens "War of Sovless aggression".

Only that SMA is out, and the "Casino" stated that they only paid mercs against SMA. Will it still be a Casino War?
What will likely be true throughout the whole war is, that the aggressor for the most part doesn't give a **** about sov. |

I think 'War of aggressionless sov' is far more appropriate considering mbc is taking and defending sov and those bee guys rolled over into inties (or just plain left - the space and/or the coalition) and gave up just as things actually began in earnest.
But really we all know it's World War Bee.
(incidentally far fewer people are being paid than the kool-aid would lead you to believe and most of the actually important factions doing the heavy lifting are doing it for their own very obvious reasons that really have nothing to do with isk whether they receive any tiny drops in their respective oceans or not) |

Yea... That was funny writeup:
- we are out of game organization (IWI)
- they (Mittany) cannot attack us in game
- we (IWI) can attack them in the game
- they (Mittani) used out of game means to fight us!

And this is why MBC fights (as the saying goes).
Salt indeed.... Seeing goons deploy SJW-like tactics lends a certain sperging element to all this that makes me wonder if this is a going to become a meta-demographic war. What "kind of people" are these goons? We'll find out. I don't expect the results to be the kind that raises faith in humanity.
