Never understood the kind of people who get off of this kind of thing. I guess there's a whole federation of them.



One could say its a goonswarm federation

Perhaps the OP is just a spy and that's why she didn't get accepted.

Goonswarm? Scam?

The shock might kill me.

This is shocking. Please tell us who scammed you and we'll go after them. If they don't make you whole, they'll find themselves looking for a new guild to join.

It's a recruitment scam.

They send you an email saying that they're recruiting for Goonswarm, they have a website where you put in your api and apply and even provide an application status.

And then they pressure you to start moving your stuff to their home system before you get accepted.

So, if Goonswarm offers you a spot in their corporation, it's a scam. Don't even talk to them.

Ok, ok… I suppose someone has to do it.

Haven't seen this kind of thread for some time in GD. Goons are slacking.

If only there was a collection of information that could be searched, possibly using computers somehow.

In hindsight my post should have had more psssshhhh

Our guild has to meet the strict standards imposed by the ClusterFuckCoalition hierarchy. Without such a code, the organization would fall apart.

This sets us apart from a coalition formed around a much weaker premise like "to destroy GSF"

Exactly. OP, if you seriously were scammed send me some isk and I'll double it because I am a good guy. Lol

Everytime you read this you are required to send 100 million isk directly to me.

Came in hoping for a sign that says "I did not enlist with Goonswarm Federation to fight for BoB"... left disappointed and dejected.

That moment when you realize the crazy lady with all the cats was right...

This is patently false. I was recruited to Goonwaffe the same way and after a month of being in the corp I was refunded my deposit. You probably screwed up your application or are a spy.

EVE is a game about spaceships and there's an enormous amount of work to do on the in-space gameplay before players (or developers) are ready to sacrifice it for a totally new type of gameplay - CCP Rise

Let's be honest here, Alavaria, who ISN'T out to destroy you guys, lmao.

Once you realize what a joke everything is, being the comedian is the only thing that makes sense.
