Goonswarm came into the game to ruin “your” game. They set out to gank, grief and scam their way to becoming EVE’s boogey-men. They set their sights on Band of Brothers, a symbol of the EVE “establishment” and waged a guerilla war using insurgent tactics, espionage and betrayal to bring down their foe.


I'd say initially it was more BoB going after the Goons then the other way round. Only when that fight became more and more bitter, Goons transformed into the 'we try to ruin your game' attitude with all the meta-gaming and underhanded tactics.

Many people might hate them, but I think they make this game a lot more fun.


YEAH... BoB were totally not doing the same stuff...
And they TOTALLY didnt have CCP working in their alliance.
Its kinda different when you have ppl that were Goons first THEN went to CCP (sleeper cell) than ppl that work at CCP and join your corp (IE T20 - google it if you dont know what that is)

Well they used to.

I suppose all the goon tears lately are kind of fun.

And suddenly you're irrelevant.


Sort of like how everyone else considers people posting from a goonswarm account to be irrelevant?

Maybe he meant irrelevant like those 10k votes they were so proud of? It's hard to tell, the post is all smudged with what appears to be goon tears.
