The Best Anti-Burn Jita Strategy

On the 27th pull out any ship you have there, unless you want to try to follow in local for grins. At any rate, don't undock anything on the 28th. If the only thing flying are Goon ships, they're gonna have a helluva time staring at each other, wondering why Mitt said this was such a great idea. Mitt, the mighty leader....burn Jita. Yeah, right.

The funny part will be with no targets, the Goons complaining in local...while their complaints are scrolled out of chat by Jita spam bots. They won't even be able to smack talk.

There will always be idiots in EvE and there is nothing you can do about it. Goonswarm will have targets, no doubt about that.

Serene, what is with your strange obsession with the Goons?

It will happen as

1. 95% of people who play this game would never dream of reading these forums
2. The 5% who do will be in Jita just to watch.


Thanks for the help

Well, I guess that'll be a funny part, too. What?

Stupidity irritates me.

EDIT: Okay, I won't be glib. It's not Goons. Goons and Jita just happen to be the "problem d'jour." The solution is obvious. I just have to have it said. I've also offered the obvious solution to Hulkageddon. Same thing with that. Why go to extremes when simplicity will suffice?

better to use highly tanked cheap ships to make goons waste their ships on you might lose money but they lose more

I know that I plan on being there, screen capture running, in a cloaky scout with a fresh bag of popcorn and a six pack of beer.

What if they only target certain ships?

They've already said they're only targeting freighters and haulers.

Funny this is if people followed your suggestion & moved everything outtta Jita the goons would win by shutting down Jita.

I can't wait to see all the fail retaliations and poorly organized carebear squads tripping over each other as they fall like sheep to the slaughter. People who probably couldn't pvp their way out a paper bag actin like they're gonna be the great white hope of Jita (lookin at you Butters).

JITA BEECHES GONNA BURN!

Exactly, so this "highly tanked cheap ships" nonsense wouldn't work.

Why are you so against this happening, instead of getting highsec security to come fight them? It really in an incredible opportunity.

Or do you just want everyone to play nice in the sandbox and never try to hurt anyone else inside of it?

fUNNY THING IS i people followed your suggestion & moved everything outtta Jita the goons would win by shutting down Jita.

Didn't say "MOVE EVERYTHING out of JITA" Said "don't undock". You can't shut down Jita. It's a physical impossibility (virtually speaking).

I've said numerous times only fools believe a Goon. What I DO believe is, true to the definition of a sociopath, they're easily frustrated by no immediate reward, and get bored quickly. Our time honored response to these sorts of people is to wait them out. They wander off soon enough.

Wow, just kind of throwing out the hard diagnoses there, huh? I'm fairly certain (though not 100%) that I am not a sociopath. I just play one on the internet.
