Originally by: olzi I don't see what goons empire suiciding has to do with recruitment, most GS corps aren't open to recruitment from outside anyway. You do get alot of excess security status from ratting in 0.0, so what better way to use it than suicide some hisec miners.
Do Goons still demand R/L money in the form of SA subs?

I forsee these large scale suicide gankings of everything faction or officer to be the end of suiciding as we know it. I mean what is the meaning in striving for the pimped out ship if you know a group of lowlifes will just gank it at first light anyways?

*errhhhmm*
Recruiting through displaying your talents is one way. I guess blowing up ships where there is a larger audience could attract publicity, and through that, recruits.
I like the fact that you can do it (suicide gank), but awknowledge the fact that if overdone, it is subject to the nerfbat. I dunno, I guess it's not easy designing a game

Hmmm this gives me an idea on how to attract wide eyed empire noobs to INFOD, if suicide ganking in highsec is enough impress them, then they will be blown away by our badger and bestower kills, truely the endgame of pvp. _________

I hate to poke holes in your theory, but afaik most tri corps have closed recruitment atm. Ours certainly does and we were doing lots of the recent ganking. I guess kinda a good possible analysis even if you are reading a bit too much into it though.

I'm pretty sure that the only real reason TRI do it is because they want to make quick money. As an alliance they can get enough people to run a successful empire gank and as PvPers they like to kill.
Money - Gank - Fun
there's no depth. I'm tempted to do the same thing except I don't want to be evil. It's like, clubbing baby seals

Originally by: XxAngelxX I think you're reading too much into it.
It's just a quick and easy way to make isk for a corp without having to mine/npc/trade. I wouldn't say sitting for hours on end waiting for a good target is comparable to PVP in fun-factor =P
If this is indeed a way to make isk by suiciding stuff, then they are doing it wrong. Not the ideea mind you, but the implementation. :) You could make more if you did a bit of research first.

All I did was try to explain some current events with TRI and GS. If you really want to generalize:
- all major alliances care about their image - all major alliances will attention *****
Ganking in empire is just one way to keep your alliance on people's minds. I never implied empire ganking would attract hardcore pvpers on its own, this is like a tiebreaker more than anything when you're trying to chose between two pvp-heavy groups.
It isn't a master plan either, and there are other better examples. Most people are consciously aware of stuff that'll get their alliance some public attention.
CAOD is a better example, because you don't get kills or money for posting. There's also a good chance it'll aggravate you if you actually spend time reading, so it's not even a fun place to be sometimes.
For all the career ****posters in GoonSwarm..
- most of them wouldn't be doing it on their own, or come to CAOD at all - some of them go straight to reply, and never visit the thread again - a few are sharing threads and tag teaming
Unless these incredibly funny people are getting paid to waste their time every day, they're tryin' to represent. Cause most of their recruits are pubbies who join SA for GS.

Simply not true. "Most" is probably a more appropriate quantification.

Yes, DG, I will complain. Both Triumvirate and GoonSwarm are rephrehensible barbarians who prey on the weak when they cannot manage to sate their bloodlust on properly matched opponents. But, this is par for the course.. the 'Aligned' groups like Goonswarm and their pets, and the other side called BoB do this all the time.
There is an alternative... there are NRDS groups to join, that aren't on either side.
Don't be blue or red.. be Grey. Sure, its harder. But worthy things in life usually are. With God, All Things are Possible Probable is another matter, entirely. |
