Equinox Daedalus Caldari The Legion of Spoon Curatores Veritatis Alliance	Posted - 2008.03.06 01:32:00 - [241] Spoon stay civil plz. No need to sink to name calling and cloak waving. Cva's Growth is mostly in reposnse to the increased areas it has to maintain. Thats really the simple matter to it. No UK, Imperal Order, or anyone else in northern prov meant that more CVA ppl are needed to maintain systems areas for Prov. Goons are goons. I don't haveta defend or speak for them they I'm sure do it quite well themselves. The Legion of Spoon : Upon wings of wax I fly, never to close to the sun
Value Added GoonFleet GoonSwarm	Posted - 2008.03.06 01:35:00 - [242] CVA, you shouldn't feel compelled to defend yourselves against a self-important blowhard who wrote a 10-page dissertation on stealth bombers.
Dashboard Hard Rock Cafe	Posted - 2008.03.06 02:26:00 - [243] The second chatlog is priceless. You've got a pompous fool, a powerless flunky, and a total *******. No-one comes off well here! thanks for posting.
Montague Zooma Imperial Dreams Curatores Veritatis Alliance	Posted - 2008.03.06 02:28:00 - [244] Originally by: Equinox Daedalus Cva's Growth is mostly in reposnse to the increased areas it has to maintain. I'd say our growth is due more to our playstyle, not because we wanted more bodies to fill up Providence. Healthy, successful organizations tend to grow, while others stagnate or die off. CVA has shown a consistent pattern of slow, stable growth over the years.
Hardin Amarr Imperial Dreams Curatores Veritatis Alliance	Posted - 2008.03.06 08:08:00 - [245] Edited by: Hardin on 06/03/2008 08:09:18 Originally by: The Cosmopolite Hardin, you have quoted me saying that I don't consider it evidence of falling CVA standards. So... well, it's lucky for us both that you cannot believe I am dragging it up as evidence of falling CVA standards. Because I don't think it shows that and I've said I don't think it. It's all in that quote you helpfully referenced. You are right - which is why I had already edited the 'fallen' to 'changed' before you even posted your reply. I saw it was wrong after I had reread my post and corrected it. Originally by: The Cosmopolite You argue with Jade to your heart's content on the other points, Hardin. As I've indicated, my personal views as a player may very well not be quite the same as Jade's. (Shocking, I know, for people to hear that we don't all bow at Jade's altar in SF but it is true.) Cosmo I know that also Cosmo, which is why until this point I have not mentioned Star Fraction at all in this thread... As I have said on many other occasions I do actually admire and respect the qualities and capabilities of the majority of Star Fraction pilots. ----- Alliance Creation/Corp Expansion Services
WowZilla The Leeroy Jenkins Project	Posted - 2008.03.06 09:05:00 - [246] Why the wall of text posts? It takes greater skill and intelligence to make a point in a 100 words than it does to make the same point in a 1000 words. I was tempted to write TL;DR on some recent rambling reports I got issued to me at work. Jade - Please provide an executive summary for your issues and you may get a better response. Some of us are busy bees y'know! kthxbye ______________________ I am the worst poaster

Locke Deathroe Clan 86 Antesignani Alliance	Posted - 2008.03.06 10:31:00 - [249] The thing I find most interesting after reading the "interview" about Goons actions in empire is that they are doing this to promote people into moving to 0.0. I about died laughing at this comment. You see ATA had found a quiet spot in Detorid, NOT ONE TOWER IN THE WHOLE 6 SYSTEM constellation. We are blue to Goon, RA, TCF, UNL... so we dropped towers. Not that week, not the next...but TWO mths into getting sov 3 and having a good time out in 0.0 chasing ISK farmers and reds.... Goon comes along and tells us to leave to face obliteration. So tell me Goon, how in the hell is it you want to get people into 0.0?? Oh wait is it so you can extort ISK from them? Let them spend thier ISK to build a station then YOU come along and take it? Please elaborate on how your actions in empire are a "helpful way to get people into 0.0"

Jade Constantine Gallente Jericho Fraction The Star Fraction	Posted - 2008.03.06 11:41:00 - [253] Originally by: Baxalusx The reason people without numbers ***** about people with numbers is that they aren't good or charismatic enough leaders to gather and maintain that many people as a cohesive entity. I do understand why you produce a statement like that Baxalusx. You are after all, the product of a crusading external mono culture with an agenda to erase all competing ideology and values in your target ecosystem after all. What you mean of course, is that to "the goon" the sole element of "leadership" that is acknowledged is the assembly of numbers of drones to be directed at a common target. I will grant you that great sacrifices are made by famous goon leaders in their time and focus (well kinda) since it cannot be easy living within the prime culture of the swarm 24/7, but while it is certainly one form of "leadership" it is not "all forms" of leadership and only a zealous day-one nihilistic ideology could possibly see it thus. But it is important for YOU to keep spieling this memetic wisdom dear Baxalusx. For many reasons actually, since as a dramatically loyalist member of the swarm you have quite the investment of pride and personal prestige invested in proving that you were right to submit your personal authority and freedom to the "leadership" of other stronger men. I see such an evidently vital quest for self-justification on this matter proof positive that while the Swarm has been successful (massively so) in recruiting raw drones for the slaughter, it has not yet achieved the complete miracle of mass castration of the personal consciousness of its member base and as such chaps like you still feel a little tingling itch of "damaged pride" when people like me point out that existing in the scantily-shadowed reflected glory of a 4000 man organization is not after all, much of an accomplishment for a posthuman starship captain with immortality and the wealth of the stars at your beck and call. There is a reason that fanatical devotees of a mass-movement herd-mentality-inspired pyramid scheme come to resent and loathe that representatives of free unbowed humanity point out how inimical that demeaning collectivist process truly is on public forums. It reminds people like you of what you've lost somewhere along the way dear Baxalusx. Maybe it didn't feel much at the time? Just a little free-will, just a touch of individual accomplishment, a smidgen of fame, a touch of potential, a little cut here and there and sooner than you know it you were a fully paid up little swarmster with a uniform and pocket-book full of somebody else's witticisms and a healthy disdain for anybody and anything that didn't look just like you in the mirror of your soul. I sympathize I really do, it can't be easy to give up everything in the pursuit of somebody else's twisted conception of glory and discover after months of shaving your head and posting perfect catechisms and meme-jokes that your mass-movement isn't really the all-powerful crusading doom of all that stands against it that the SA recruiting ads painted it was going to. A little humiliating to march lockstep in ranks with the other little drones on CAOD only to discover that rather than terrifying a cringing subject population, you most often find yourselves heckled by free-thinkers, laughed at by children, and generally despised by anyone who has actually seen combat in the great battlefields of the eve star cluster. There are no great victory parades and public spectacles and arches of triumph for you Baxalusx. There are no accolades but those you afford yourself, no kind words but those dictated in your goon-phrase book, no real satisfaction or accomplishment and that is the real flaw in your heart. Its hard I know, and where does it leave us? Me laughing at the faux-conquering ranks of goon drones marching endlessly in circles on their way from one failure to another? You declaring how irrelevant my individualism truly is. But can we effect each other? "I might not have meant anything by it"
Jade Constantine Gallente Jericho Fraction The Star Fraction	Posted - 2008.03.06 11:44:00 - [254] That really is the question isnÆt it Baxalusx? I mean, I strongly suspect I (and all like me) are ôbeneath the noticeö of the Swarm since we donÆt play the POS spam/settlement/indestructible outpost game in 0.0 space. That of course means weÆll never lose a system full of POS due to you crashing a node or loading up bookmarks in shuttles or attacking with 10,000 starter frigates. All weÆll ever do is fly around in warships avoiding the lagfests and preying on your civilians and weaker members and shooting them in the head when we get the chance while fading away and hiding from any organized army many times our number. Must be frustrating right? And a real nightmare to fight of course since if you actually wanted to ôfiscally annihilateö us youÆd have to learn how to fight properly and construct decent skirmish gangs, learn to track targets, develop some decent empire reach, use wardecs, suppression, dirty tricks, basically û fight a war quite differently from the spoonfed roll into a system, lag the whole place and replace some dead pos with your own and wave a flag before declaring ôvictoryö pattern you are accustomed too. Or you could pretend that we ôdonÆt matterö that the war has already been ôwonö against such marginal threats and incidental hostiles. Maybe you should ignore all such posts on CAOD because they come from an ôirrelevantö source? (Admittedly ôignoringö doesnÆt have the same ring to it as ôround up all the anarchists and free-thinkers and intellectuals and performance artists and execute them tomorrow morningö and I can see how the chief goon passing the orders back through the ranks for a mass ôturn the other cheekö from the laughing crowd is going to lack a certain element of ... well gravitas really, but those are the breaks.) So where does that leave us? Now I could be wrong (itÆs possible) but running the numbers and a very quick analysis shows that while itÆs true, my organisation (and likely another 20 like it) couldnÆt possibly threaten your towers and 0.0 dominion, neither could you with your huge numerical advantage (summoned by the lauded goon charismatic leadership and SA levies) actually achieve anything against us. Damn, thatÆs something of a stalemate then, means that while militarily weÆre irrelevant to you its just the same in reverse. Military confrontation then isnÆt really the battleground of use to us here. I wonder if your vaunted ômass-subscription charismatic leadershipö can achieve anything where direct numerical confrontation doesnÆt decide the issue? You know, in something like a conflict of ideas, of dreams, of ideals, of ambitions, you know û all the finer things of life? IÆll leave you a while to ponder this Baxalusx (and IÆve finished my morning coffee now in any case), but makes you think, no? Perhaps the great confrontation of our time is not going to be in space since the massively asymmetrical nature of the confrontation makes decisive engagement impossible. Perhaps it is about ideas and debate, about rhetoric and persuasion, about imagination and intellect and sparkling prose? Maybe the true test of your ôgreat charismatic mass movement leadershipö is not in assembling vast node-crashing fleets but in vanquishing ideological challenges to the goon mono culture in visceral verbal combat in the sphere of public opinion. Terrifying of course for a ôleaderö accustomed only in persuading obedience from brain-wired-from-birth goon legions to engage a wider audience of individuals and free thinkers, but honestly, maybe thatÆs what it takes to stop the crowds throwing rotten fruit and laughing uproariously every time the goons come to town? Just a thought for you to begin your day old chap, enjoy. "I might not have meant anything by it"

Desiderata Fabian GoonFleet GoonSwarm	Posted - 2008.03.06 12:03:00 - [257] I pompous blowhard rolling in a sea of smug superiority telling everyone who cares to listen that he is a free-thinker and that anyone else acting differently is merely a drone. Are you sure this isn't a libertarian thread in D&D?
Papa Ina GoonFleet GoonSwarm	Posted - 2008.03.06 12:05:00 - [258] And people wonder why we think roleplayers are out of touch.
Caer Isen GoonFleet GoonSwarm	Posted - 2008.03.06 12:37:00 - [259] Jade are you seriously trying to market yourself as a free thinker by behaving like a bigot and a dumbass on the forums? Have you considered that the diarrhea of words you self-aggrandizingly describe as "sparkling poetry" might be part of the reason your alliance has been a non-entity in 0.0 politics for years? hold the line
Zyz'yx GoonFleet GoonSwarm	Posted - 2008.03.06 13:02:00 - [260] Jade constantine posts need to come with a tl;dr version. All of them. Anyway, CVA are chill. In regards to the OP, he is only the leader of the respective largest alliance and corporations in the game. Why bother knowing who he is amirite?

Hegemon Rast Amarr Viziam	Posted - 2008.03.06 13:41:00 - [262] As much as, long ago I didnt like Jade and probably still do not, and as there is admittedly some smart reply to anything as is demonstrated hundreds of times every day by the Goon post it squad, it still must be said that bottom line is he or she is right. Goons do not stand for being good at anything. If the goal of Goons was to win by being better at anything be it combat logistics tactics ... this could be respected in some way. What is interesting is the Russians with probably alot of experiance at collectivism or communism are individuals and the goons (mostly americans) with some experiance in individualism are collectivists, makes you wonder what happend to US culture these past few decades, almost Roman empiric decay. Though I hope eve survives this it is really a shame.
Vyktor Abyss The Abyss Corporation Abyss Alliance	Posted - 2008.03.06 13:48:00 - [263] Same old Jade, same old windbag. If attention grew on trees, Jade would be a Fujita 5 Twister sucking all those trees up. Hardin would be Bill Paxton (congrats), and CVA would be the Van Halen "Ride the Wind" soundtrack. ABVSS are recruiting...... Veeeeery Slowly!! Hehe!!

What a shame but I believe the disappointment will pass in time. The "one-liner" / meme-joke / perl letter script / throwaway pop-culture-theft-mechanics endlessly propagated down the goon hierarchy from the leaders to the drones and practiced as mono-cultural "passports" to goon e-respect and virtual esteem really have no compelling attraction to me beyond pure anthropomorphic curiosity Mittani. I'm sure you can understand that dear chap, but thank you for quoting the whole of my posts so reliably, it really does make me feel very special. For the rest however, allow me to explain: The TL:DR meme is something I consider as a hostile thought-virus resident as a parasite in the goon body politic and I take great pleasure flying in the face of your conventional "wisdom" on these matters. You chaps bring your memes and faux witticisms as the ancient conquistadors brought ailments and plague to isolated civilizations to kill them as surely as their swords and guns. (And all the while you hand out glittering but worthless trinkets of "e-praise" and "madprops" to those natives that greet you with welcome arms and happy animal faces even as they dig their own graves in witless mimicry of invader fashions) "TL:DR" is the most common of trinkets - thoughtlessly repeated by those hoping to get "in" with the perceived "in crowd" and yet a fully obvious element in the process of cross-cultural suicide in all its gory slasher slow motion action. To accept the TL:DR trinket is to lobotomize yourself so you can better "fit in" to a dumbed down society lacking in wit and attention-span itself. Its fascinating to see which characters realize the dangers of this contamination in time to arrest its spread and which simply surrender to the inevitability of mono-cultural assimilation. I trust that makes my thoughts clear on the matter "I might not have meant anything by it"
