The default answer to any question with the words "Goonswarm" and "scam" in it is yes.

All dead males have a beard. Or, well, HAD, for a while. Unless they were unable to grow one.
Well, you get the idea.

Just wanted to know before I gave them 500m isk for the following.
Sponsorship Contract and Deposit to join Goonswarm
Sponsor: Jordun Pax
This money is a deposit. Upon confirmation by five (5) goonswarm members in good standing or one (1) director, your isk will be returned to you and you will be promoted the title of "bee."
After you apply, a human resources daemon will hit accept. The Evemail reply you will get is automatic, do not respond. Go to the Corporation menu on the sidebar, select "Members", then the "Applications" tab, then the "My Applications" subtab, and finally the "Offers" sub-subtab, select the offer and click "accept" to join the corporation. It's recommended you only accept it if you're going to podjump immediately afterwards, because if you intend to spend a while more in empire after accepting, you might be killed by a corp or alliance that has a war declaration against us, meaning they can shoot us (and vice versa) freely anywhere
General Rules
These are listed in descending order of severity. Breaking the ones at the top will probably get you kicked from the corporation on the first offense. Lower down, the penalties will be less severe, but successive offenses will result in increasing penalties. DonĘt act like an idiot.
Goodbye!
1. Killing, griefing, stealing from goons or the corp. This applies even if another goon attacks you first. Don't escalate the situation. (If someone shoots you kill it with fire, sort it out later.)
2. Helping the enemy.
3. Refusing to stop doing something when repeatedly confronted by a director.
4. Lying about losing a ship or otherwise misrepresenting yourself in order to get money from our reimbursement programs.
5. If you are caught (and it isn't very hard to catch) shooting blues with POS guns, we pull all your roles and boot you out of the corp then ban you off the forums forever.
You Might Get Kicked Out Or Fined
1. Warping to gang members unless specifically told to. Warping to a cloaked ship at 0 will decloak it, likely causing both of you to die. Cloaking ships are vital to a fleet.
2. Looting or going anywhere near a wreck during a fleet op unless an FC specifically tells you to.
3. Scamming, even on a non-Goonswarm alt.
4. Harassing or hindering directors when they are doing director work.
5. Giving away tactical information in local or public channels.
6. Talking in local when ordered not to by a Redswarm FC.
7. Spamming corp mail or alliance mail.
8. Shitting up Gang Chat during big ops. Questions and chatter go in the ***gotgbs channel. The password for this channel will be made available when needed.
9. Shitting up Red Arrow or another designated intel channel with anything at all. If someone is shitting it up then convo them and tell them to stop. Report hostile movements only. Ideally in this format: Shrike, 77S, Avatar, P3 M4 or Shrike, 77S, No Eyes (if you have no info on ship type or hostile location in system).
We Won't Be Happy
1. Dropping loot from Fleet Commander-run PvP ops into anywhere but the taxes hangar. If it is capital loot, definitely expect to be kicked.
2. Not understanding that mandatory defense ops are just that.
3. Not being on teamspeak if you are in a gang.
Don't Read Or Do Anything Else Until You Have Done These Things
1. For the love of god, read the rules of being in GoonSwarm. Memorize them. Live them.
2. Be sure you're in the alliance channel as soon as possible. Ask all your stupid questions in here.
3. Be sure to turn off your CSPA charges, so that we can invite you gangs etc. Open Evemail -> Rightclick Inbox -> Settings. .
And NO... I am not a GOON ALT! |

Incorrect. Hair and fingernails do not continue to grow after death as is commonly believed. The dessication of the body however causes the skin to contract a bit, which makes the hair and nails look as if they've gotten longer.

Linkage
"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."
Obviously, I seriously doubt any "Goonfleet member of good standing" will vouch for you just for giving him some ISK, but you never know, stranger things have happened.
If I'd say "send me 4 bil ISK and I'll send you a Rhea in 3 days", would you send me the ISK ?
Yeah, I figured.

And hence, the beard you couldn't possibly have shaven BELOW the skin level before you died will be exposed, for a while, giving you a... wait for it... beard 
Granted, not a thick, lush, beard, but more of a "five and a half clock shadow", still, like I said, "you get the idea"

I have to wonder the ratio of real idiots goons have scammed to fake 'I was scammed' posts they make themselves to maintain their reputation.
I know people are stupid, but giving money to join a corp is a special kinda stupid.

I guess the big question here is will anyone from GOONFLEET read this and post against what we are all saying?
If not I think CCP should post some sort of alert on this scam that is going around. |

Why would they? Scamming isn't illegal in EVE.

Not necessarily because stubble does not a beard make. This thread is now about anything with the prefix necro.

Any time a goon talks to you tell him to take his mormon ass off your porch and then suicide gank him. I have 5 accounts that have alts dedicated purely to ganking them, it's fun.

You can type shit now, they removed the filter, kinda funny they didn't remove the none swearing versions though. They probably spent more time thinking that through than the current devs do with balancing issues.
