i see "goon", i immediately think child molester.. why does the biggest alliance in the game have to have the worst name in the history of games?

Joe Skill makes you sound like a man hooker. The leather confirms it.

Because your word assosciation skills are poor.

Noun

1.A silly, foolish, or eccentric person.
2.A bully or thug, esp. one hired to terrorize or do away with opposition.


Absolutely nothing to do with child molestation. Have you considered the fact that you are projecting your own pedophilia onto others you dislike?

Joe Skill sounds like an oxymoron?

Goons see goons and immediately think of child molesters too.

The first time I heard the word Goons was in a spider-man game.

Everytime I hear the word I think of them

In jails, a Goof is a child molester. Calling someone a goof is guaranteed to get you in a fight, at the least. You're confusing that with Goon.

After the patch we're giving the market some gentle supply restriction, like tying one wrist to the bedpost loosely with soft silk rope. Just enough to make things a bit more exciting for the market, not enough to make a safeword necessary.  -Fozzie

Honestly it is better than something super cliche like United Federation of Planetary Galaxy Spaceship Enterprises. Not to say I like their name though.
