EVE General Discussion

Yeah because there weren't any PL spies in any NC corps...

What you've got a clown costume on, it's hard to tell from this angle?

Anyhow jokes aside, most likely history will repeat itself and the goons will be a distant memory one day only mentioned to scare noobs

I can only hope you're right. Sorta feel that CCP maybe shoulda put a moratorium on invading cap heavy sov alliances so soon after a "cap nerf" brought to you by......

[Drum Roll]

The Invaders.....

PS: Of course. That's ONLY if Mittens continues to declare his wonderful CSM achievements and "fair treatment" of ALL Eve players as he rides his war elephant into battle to control MORE of Eve's wealth.

EDIT: TLDR - CCP has been sucker punched.

From what I know he's constantly whining about people mining ice in high security space and seems to think that if he ganks enough hulks it will make CCP listen.

Same thing what happened when NC owned 66% of it.

The same thing that stopped everyone else who "owned all the wealth in the game", entropy. But then people would have to have a functional memory or an ability to research the past to know that.

The point was made several times by many that the strength of the DRF supercap fleet was the only thing stopping Goons. It is FAR too much of a co-incidence that the drive for the north came on the back of that nerf but not before. This is all too pat and smacks of pre-planned conivance between supposed enemies and a hijacking of a CSM agenda under an auspice of "fairness".

As for someone stating that 2 x PL were on the CSM to "balance" the view. Pfft. Whose side are they actually on anyway? Have the lines been drawn yet?

Besides, dissecting individual scap victories as a reason for the nerf are and were invalid. Goons could have fielded just as many scaps as anyone else and chose not to. It's a case of change the game so we can win. It happened and it's happening.

Absolutely convinced that CCP were played here and I'll stand by my "conspiracy theory" until proven otherwise.

Yes... we're so successful because we manipulate the game through the CSM. That's why we've got a game full of overpowered supercapitals and we rely mostly on sub-caps. Supers still murder subcaps.

Shall I tell you why we're successful? It's because we don't take Eve at all seriously. We're terrible at this game and we know it.

Come to Hakonen and sit cloaked off the 7-7 station. Watch us engage a hostile gang 100km off the station, we'll wander over there in a hap-hazzard fasion one by one and the wrecks will pile up, before realising 'hey guys, maybe we should fleet up and, y'know, co-operate?'

We'll send a 150 man alpha fleet up against White Noise and Raiden knowing full well that Raiden have their supercaps logged on and ready to drop on us, but it's Friday night and we've been shooting structures all week so f*ck it , let's do it anyway, and laugh while they press the win button before they spam 'gf gf gf gf gf o7o7o7o7o7o7m8m8m8m8m8m8' in local.

We read corpmails and forum posts from other alliances courtesy of our spies, CEOs sperging out over sh*t-fits and embarassing lossmails. Meanwhile our KB has a weekly hall of shame at the top showcasing our most expensive losses (Farewell morale Kronos, you will be missed). Not a week goes by in Fountain that we don't lose a 3 Tengus or an Archon because some dumbass was ratting while there were neutrals in local.

So we aren't easily affected by ingame defeat, our community is more important than ingame events. You can kill our internet spaceships, take our sov, kill our supers if we had any, but you'll never take away our local-spam, fleetchat p0rn, or our Teamspeak concerts.

I've heard of this United Hisec Front alliance that may be the goon's downfall.

had to check this wasn't a thread bumped from 2008
