Hello,


You may have noticed an uptick in posting from Goons over the last few days. This is because our cultural homeforums have been down. It is now back up, so please brace for the impending goodposting vacuum.

I just wanted to pass on my heartfelt relief over the situation. Frankly, its been terrible rubbing elbows with most (but not all) of you. Don't call us, we won't call you.

Toodles.

But goons are the best provider of content in this game. I am of course talking about Dinsdale posts, less goons means less null sec cartel rage from him.

Now, more than ever, we need a dislike button.

The best thing about Dinsdale (<3) is that we don't have to post to make him blame Null cartels for everything. We just need to exist.

Everyone should register on Something awful. Make sure to make an intro post in FYAD when you do!

Some how, I don't think I score that high on the goon agenda.

Oh my god these posts are real. I don't really come to the Eve forums anymore so I had no clue.

We really do like you, just not for reasons you'd be pleased about.

I read everything you post and I know I'm not the only Goon who does.

We're gone back in time 6 years and Goons actually create content.

Meh. Sometimes nonexistent problems work for him too. Big smile

My posts are not for the benefit of the goons, and really don't care how many read my truths and wisdom.
Frankly, posting by ANYONE on these forums is pretty much a complete waste of time, given the mindset of most of the Eve forum readers and posters.

Mostly, I post to enshrine horrifically bad decisions by CCP that may illuminate the history of the downfall of Eve and CCP, when it comes. But hey, the PCU being down and the subs down is just a figment of my imagination and 2 or 6 bloggers.

Good grief. It's only Wednesday and EvE is dying already.

Dinsdale, I would be glad to meet you in real life and listen to your opinions on EVE over drinks. I'd buy you beers until you couldn't stand up anymore. Never change.

Well, it would be interesting how many did, if you ever managed to offer any.

You mean the ones that have all had exactly the opposite causation than what you're envisioning? Yeah, that's a noble endeavour but it would be a whole lot easier if you just enshrined what actually happened rather than played “perpetual opposite-day”.

One of them certainly is since there is no other source for it.

Clearly you don't care, since you don't post any. If you posted some truths and wisdom, I'm sure many of us would like to read them.

I thought you posted to suggest horrifically bad decisions that will bring EvE down.

My bad.

I won't be changing anytime soon.

That being said, I recently flew with a goon, and he was a great guy in our fleet.
But hey, out of 10,000, there have to be some exceptions to the rule.
