Arrendis GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 3884	Posted - 2017.05.24 16:54:15 - [1] - Quote What you've missed: Things happened, people who lived in one place moved to another. People who lived there moved somewhere else. This happened a few times, and nothing's really changed. Everyone living in [insert area of space you're not in] is utterly irrelevant, doing nothing anyone cares about. The people in [part of space you're in] are mostly idiots, but there's a few decent folks who seem to be ok. [Someone you don't care about] went and [past tense of verb you don't care about] to [other people you don't care about]. And a whole lot of people got their knickers in a twist over it all.
Arrendis GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 3884	Posted - 2017.05.24 16:59:42 - [2] - Quote Yeah. S'why I said it. Shocking, I know. And Ember, if I was going for brevity: Feces occurred.
Arrendis GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 3891	Posted - 2017.05.24 18:53:26 - [3] - Quote Silas Vitalia wrote: Ennui hits for wrecking damage. Nah, but without relevant context, specifics get difficult. For example: How many years are you asking about? Are your interests primarily in developments in Low-sec? High-sec/ Null? Exactly who did you know (the complete individual list) so 'oh, this person turned out to be relevant in X, that person went and became a complete drooling mouthbreather' can be done. I mean, with however many trillion people there are in New Eden 'hi! I've been done for an indeterminate amount of time, what'd I miss?' is.. uhm... really, it's so vague, the only way to answer properly was by being just as vague.
Arrendis GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 3898	Posted - 2017.05.24 23:39:49 - [4] - Quote That's not very nice, coming from a Gallente. We've all seen how fat your dreads are. I think she's more like a Nidhoggur or an Archon, all svelte and sleek, not potato-shaped like a Moros. Honestly, James, that's just rude.
Arrendis GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 3913	Posted - 2017.05.25 13:03:36 - [5] - Quote Silas Vitalia wrote: Let's stick to subject though, give me some good gossip or good cut-throat capsuleer groups to investigate membership. Depends on the scale and style of throat-cutting you're looking for. If you're looking for small groups, I really haven't paid much attention to them (see my original post). If you want something larger, then we get back into the gradations of flavor and style. If a go wherever you want, generally nomadic lifestyle of shooting pretty much anyone for reasons ranging from 'we're getting paid to' to 'I thought it'd be funny' is your thing, then the apex of that is Pandemic Legion. If you decide to go that route, but you'll probably want to start off by looking into their competent, active, and fairly baller feeder alliance, Waffles. Good guys, who know how to leave a bloody swath behind them while still having a good time. They're also generally pretty good at keeping the violence on a level and style that shows respect for their opponents, and earns it in kind. If you're looking for something on a more dedicated 'I don't care what your fight is about, I want good organization, a professional atmosphere, capable pilots, and comms that don't make me want to kill myself', I'd suggest Mercenary Coalition. They're solid and capable, and punch above their weight pretty well. They're also not afraid to lose assets in pursuit of a strategic objective, when necessary. For a slightly more semi-sedentary group that is as balls-to-the-wall as anyone in New Eden, The Initiative. They're currently in Querious, but Sister Bliss is a damned murder machine. Smart, innovative, and capable. They also enjoy going semi-nomadic, and don't tend to really get 'attached' to any particular space. If you want to be able to move seamlessly between going out and killing people 2-3 times a day and making obscene amounts of money (provided you put the work in, obviously), well, "Farmafleet is recruiting". While Goonswarm and the Imperium don't tend to go throwing our entire war machine into every fray we can, SIGS, or Special Interest Groups, like Space Violence and Hole Squad make a habit of being bloodthirsty bastards all over the damned place. There are rumors of specialized Imperium forces dedicated to extended operations within enemy space, but I have it on good authority that any SIG of that nature does not exist, and is merely rumors and gossip intended to scare ratters and miners before bed. There's more out there, of course, but that's my 0.02 ISK. James Syagrius wrote: You know despite rumor you have an excellent sense of humor, though I fear at heart you are a trouble maker. I'm really just more of a general 'joker', but most people don't seem to get the joke.
Arrendis GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 3917	Posted - 2017.05.25 13:41:31 - [6] - Quote Silas Vitalia wrote: That is indeed an excellent list and description, and a few names I was also looking into. You have my thanks for being so helpful. Will be remembered. My pleasure. One note about Init: their size and location at this point puts them as the de facto 800-lb gorilla in the Querious Fight Club (though I don't know if they're actually members, given their membership in the Imperium proper). The QFC is basically exactly what it sounds like, with groups encouraged to move in to keep their pilots sharp, make use of their systems, etc... just not allowed to evict one another. Kind of like 'living in null-sec with training wheels', in a way. Or, I guess, almost like if Provibloc was a fractious bunch of maniacs who shot each other as often as they... huh... HMmmmm.
Arrendis GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 3917	Posted - 2017.05.25 15:20:57 - [7] - Quote Gaven Lok'ri wrote: This means that Aldrith is now a Lord Consort. S'truth, he's a kept man! It's one of his hair-care secrets.
Arrendis GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 3921	Posted - 2017.05.25 16:39:04 - [8] - Quote Deitra Vess wrote: Wouldn't be a giant leap to assume Silas will be graced by their holiest of presences.... Never know, they may actually attack a combat oriented group yet. To shine that light they're soo proud of of course. I suspect that'll depend on where she winds up. No need for PIE to attack her if she's up in Cal/Gal space, for example.
Arrendis GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 3922	Posted - 2017.05.25 17:52:58 - [9] - Quote Elsebeth Rhiannon wrote: What's a Lord Consort do, anyway? He consorts, oh, lordy does he ever consort.... Halcyon Ember wrote: Also something about securing the line, no? They've got kids, so he's done his consortium duty there. Any additional happy fun-times are completely duty-free, and may be arranged in the duty-free shop at any interstellar transit hub.
Arrendis GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 3940	Posted - 2017.05.26 05:43:31 - [10] - Quote Pieter Tuulinen wrote: I think you need an heir and a spare before you can rest on your laurels. I thought they had two kids, no?

Arrendis GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 3955	Posted - 2017.05.26 15:28:30 - [11] - Quote "Bee", actually, because of both the GSF Alliance logo, and the efforts of one of the opposing FCs, Killah Bee, in coming up with the proposed name. Of course, by that point, the war had already been going on for eight months... but hey, better late than never, right?
Arrendis GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 3957	Posted - 2017.05.26 16:40:13 - [12] - Quote Mizhara Del'thul wrote: Well, we couldn't keep calling it "The War of Sovless Aggression" anymore, could we? Hey, I can't help it if Kcolor sucks at names and Mittens prefers home-grown. My own suggestion was 'The War of Damn That's a Lot of Dudes'.'.
Arrendis GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 3957	Posted - 2017.05.26 16:48:41 - [13] - Quote Mizhara Del'thul wrote: It's fine. My suggestion for the Tribute War didn't seem to get off the ground either. "Not the Greatest War in the World" apparently didn't roll off the tongue. Guess we'll have to stick to our day jobs and not make it rich as propagandists.
Arrendis GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 3965	Posted - 2017.05.26 18:13:34 - [14] - Quote AEther Galatia wrote: My personal theory is that Jamyl is in retirement somewhere sipping fine spirits. I could tell you where she is, but Alizabeth would be *extremely* upset with me.
Arrendis GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 3971	Posted - 2017.05.26 21:56:15 - [15] - Quote Woiw. Those are good drugs they're trying out on you!

Arrendis GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 4124	Posted - 2017.05.30 20:51:52 - [21] - Quote Diana Kim wrote: I am glad I am not Sani Sabik then. LONG LIVE THE STATE!

Arrendis GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 4146	Posted - 2017.06.01 13:17:20 - [24] - Quote Mebrithiel Ju'wien wrote: Oh? We're still here... ...We are always here... Are you, though? Cowering away in J-space, utterly irrelevant to the concerns of pretty much everyone everywhere... you're only 'here' in the most nominal of ways. What little relevance you have stems only from being a capsuleerGÇöany capsuleer. As a Sansha loyalist... you don't even generate the level of interest and reaction that his baseliner slaves do... and they just inspire people to come running to kill them because it's good money. And really, being all dramatic and faux-threatening with the 'we are always here' stuff? Not really working for you. Nobody running incursions does it because they're trying to save civilians. Nobody does it because the master you pledge yourself to is at all worrisome. They do it because you're a bunch of loot-pinatas. CONCORD makes it profitable to shoot Nation ships, so Nation ships get shot, no different from Guristas or Blood Raiders. Heck, most of the time when an incursion happens in Delve, we intentionally let it run for a few extra days just to get the better payday. Money on the hoof, that's all you are.
Arrendis GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 4148	Posted - 2017.06.01 14:15:41 - [25] - Quote Mebrithiel Ju'wien wrote: Arrendis wrote: . Your incessant bleating and excessive words mean nothing.

Meanwhile, the Master provides and the void crawls onwards Yup. That's totally it. Meanwhile, the Master keeps getting his butt handed to him by cogs. Soooooo scary. Soooooo omnipresent. Soooooo pathetic.

Yeah, you activate it by having half a dozen incursion runners blow up a few hundred of their ships, destroy a supercarrier, and then wake up long enough to warp home.
Arrendis GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 4158	Posted - 2017.06.02 14:41:47 - [27] - Quote Graelyn wrote: I doubt we are considered a complete success. If you can't work out serious degenerative dementia issues among our relatively low numbers, no way in the hells that you'd dump it on Humanity At Large. Screening violently psychotic tendencies out, rather than seeming to screen toward them, might be a good start. Given the number of eggers who are rampaging murderbots with no other real ambitions... I can't imagine that's a normal sampling of the population, even with my generally dim view of humanity. That has to be a trait or tendency the capsuleer programs look for and promote.
Arrendis GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 4158	Posted - 2017.06.02 16:53:52 - [28] - Quote Jev North wrote: I suspect it's (another) few filter effects. At a guess, it might be things like the nice, sane, and well-socialized capsuleers tend to stay inside Empire capsuleer programs, rather than the wild independent bunch. Or the demands of being a successful independent capsuleer requiring quite a lot of bloodshed. The gentler souls wash out, eventually, or the weight of it all simply starts fracturing our psyches in interesting ways. There's a world of difference between those who prosecute violence as part of their duties, and those to adopt violence as their raison d'+¬tre. The second group are the ones who tend toward dementia.
Arrendis GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 4158	Posted - 2017.06.02 16:55:59 - [29] - Quote Graelyn wrote: Given the low number of genome-compatible candidates, I imagine they take anything that pops the screening process. If that were true, they wouldn't have been able to expand the empires' capsuleer programs last year with the alphas. Clearly, not everyone who can be an egger gets in. Edit: And this applies just as well to every other form of the 'there's so few of us, obviously they take whatever they can get' nonsense. If it were that difficult to find people who can be eggers, they wouldn't have just massively expanded recuirtment across all four empires with an eye toward expanding the ranks of the Navies' capsuleer cadres, and doing it significantly. Clearly, they were not taking everyone they could get, or they wouldn't have been able to widen recruitment. Which means some things have been screened. Psychotic tendencies should be among themGÇöunless, of course, the specific intent is to ensure that capsuleers are constantly wigging out on one another and starting internicine wrs that prevent people from coming together to build something outside of the empires' ability to stop.. But who'd be that calculatingly inhuman and sadistic, to unleash that kind of hell on New Eden? Oh, right. CONCORD. Nevermind!
Arrendis GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 4158	Posted - 2017.06.02 17:15:03 - [30] - Quote Morgana Tsukiyo wrote: The alphas are just a cheaper clone that can get stuff done that pleases the empires. [. . .] Nothing to do with compability to become a capsuleer. The alphas also represented a massive expansion, numerically, of the empires' capsuleer programs. If in November of YC 118, 3x as many people were completing the capsuleer programs per week as in October, this does not represent a massive change in the human genome.

Do please try to keep track of what it is you're claiming. Because you've just contradicted yourself. You were arguing against the idea that the available pool of applicants was wide enough that not everyone who could get in was getting in, ie: they can be screening out the nutjobs. Tell you what, though: how about I just pay attention to the people who don't openly tell me everyone should ignore them because nothing they say or do matters. Sound good? Eh, whatever you answer isn't important, so let's go with 'ok'.
