Goonswarm's recruitment process follows only the strictest standards of both morality and efficiency.

No **** einstien. Goonswarm is cheating people of their lives and you complain about cash? Go and get grief-killed, THEN complain about your ISK.

Every interaction I have had to date with members of Goonfleet has been positive. I can't say the same about members of the Band of Brothers. My character is neutral to both, BoB members have been shall we say "less than friendly" and this is in HIGH-SEC not low/null sec.
Given that experience so far, I would sooner help or come to the aid of a Goonfleet member than a BoB member any-day.

I was reading goons wikisite recently and they clearly state in big red bold letters how to join, nothing is mentioned about sending them your isk.
you have to understand if you pay goonswarm 100s of millions of isk to join, you deserve to be scammed aye?

Originally by: Argathos II Being that I am new to the game, I realize now that it was a huge mistake. I wanted to join a large corporation, where I could enjoy pvp. Seeing that they have taken everything I have, I dont see how any other large corporation would even be interrested in letting me join.
Oh, I wouldn't worry about that too much.
Corps shouldn't want you for your assets: They want you because you will be a valued contributor to the Cause. Right now, I'm sure you're highly motivated to kill Goons, for example. Someone with that goal would like you.
If ANY Corp/Alliance asks you for isk to join, you don't want to be part of them. Isk is very easy to make, expecially for an Alliance.
BTW: 300 mill is not a huge sum of money. It costs me that much to insure my Carrier, and the insurance always seems to run out before I die. Count yourself lucky that you've learned such an important lesson for so little cost.

Edited by: BritishInvader on 16/07/2008 19:41:04 Actually, Goonswarm not recruiting anyone who isn't an SA member is a bit of a lie. Goonswarm have 3 recruitment methods.
A: Be an SA member who fits the requirements. B: Join through one of the processing corps. C: Be sponsored in.
The processing corps pretty much get no recognition because they're not meant to be spammed everywhere. They're not spammed everywhere because the people running them are usually lazy buggers who don't want to have to babysit and spycheck a bunch of players constantly (Like me). The basic premise behind them is that if you chill with someone for a decent amount of time in a processing corp, you'll realise if he's a dumbass pubbie or if he's actually good Goon material. Getting sponsored in is pretty much a no hoper unless you're a friend of a goon in real life.
A couple of members hold processing corps that GF trusts. A character on this account runs one but nobody seems to bother applying to it though, I'm not really bothered, it means less people for me to keep an eye on. Needless to say though, a couple of people have gotten into Goonfleet through my processing corp that i'm aware of, and it worked out fine for them so vOv.
If anyone in GS has the title "Recruiter" you can actually trust them since the CEOs don't just hand that title out. They encourage scamming but when it comes down to it the alliance has to get members from somewhere so we have to have REAL recruiters who are hurf blurf and serious somewhere. -----+----- Mail : BritishInvader for signature orders.

Apart from the "lol goons" thing, who on earth would want to pay... to get into a corp. If I join a corp they should be glad to have the extra manpower, help and effort.
Paying to get into a corp... cattle/pet mentality.

Your dog is dragging dead stuff through the house again. I am not a member of Goonfleet, or any allied corp of goonfleet. I don't even have any friends in Goonfleet or allied corps/alliances. I am just speaking of the PERSONAL interactions I have had with both Goonfleet members and BoB members and too date, Goons have been politer, enjoyed a good and reasonable conversation and have always given honest and decent advice if I have asked them something. On the other hand, Members of Bob have been some of the rudest gits I have met in local.

Originally by: Argathos II The corporation of Goonswarm and any of its members will scam you out of all of your isk for paying fake payments or "legit" to them to join the corp. I was taken for 300 million isk, and the same shouldnt happen to people Legitimately looking for a corp. Do NOT apply to them, and find another place to spend your isk and your time.
All they do their recruitment forum (http://goonfleet.com/) is take peoples isk; just read some of the previous threads in the Vandee Yarr Memorial Authentication Forum ( A public forum for "recruitment") about people applying for a sponsor. (If they havent already deleted it.)
Note: If you do take a look you will find that they have moved my post entitled "To The Admin of Goonswarm" away from the public forum to cover up what is truely going on. I also post on their public forum warning others about what I am stating here.
I know I have fallen for this horrendous scam, but others need to know so that they will not become of the same fate. Please avoid them for your own sake.
Thanks for your time to read this, Argathos II
Who cares
But I kinda understand them, since someone is going to carry their financial lossess of being kamikazee bees.

rofl. I am calm, and a Raccoon will drag in even more dead stuff and, and hide it better. I suggest a small child instead. Their trainable and make great cheap labor (why a few bucks a week and they work like little Bees...... er um now where did that song come from hrmmmm)....
Barring that; do like I do. Every few years I open my doors to the local river when it floods and let it wash away all my worldly worries.... The mud smells bad sometimes but it is very effective at cleaning out the dead things.

Originally by: Ugly scout A fairly simple search online for goons yields this page.
'Goon how to join' wiki
which includes this line.
Goonfleet is NOT a publicly recruiting corporation. We are all members of the Something Awful forums, or well-known friends of someone who is a member. To join Goonfleet you MUST either be a member of the Something Awful forums and have been a member for at least 3 months (approximately, we set a new registration requirement with every newbie drive we hold.), or you must have a sponsor who is a Goonfleet member of good standing who is willing to vouch for you who meets the above requirement.
If you think paying someone to 'vouch' for you is a good way to go then good luck with that.
