It is! We can burn them in power plants instead of coal.

That is true...

However, when I logged in last night to swap out a skill, the splash screen had a huge warning about the Jita situation...
Therefore,

NO F'ING EXCUSE for not knowing what is going on!

So there.

According to goons killboards, 10 people undocked hulks in Jita yesterday.

Although morons. is closed for recruitment currently, I'd make an exception for these amazingly stupid pilots :)

How many people are going to undock/fly around Jita in Freighters loaded with billions of isk worth of stuff, even PLEX, in the middle of a GSF raid on Jita ?

I mean do you people not read anything ? Do you just live in Eve ignorant of what is happening in the world of Eve ?

I am astounded at the number of Freighter kills that the GSF has gotten already, but not only the FReighters but the actual fact that people are transporting billions of isk of stuff in their cargoholds.

What is wrong with you ?



Because Darwin's theory also applies to Eve.

Goon's just tend to accelerate Natural Selection.

You pretty much answered your own question. Most of these freighter guys are completely oblivious to the fact that they play a MMORPG.

Hmmmm... I brought a jump freighter out from Jita station through the conventional gates last night with no problem. It just takes a little initiative to avoid the Goon squads.

Probably undocked for kicks, there was a Zephyr in one of the screenshots I saw as well. I mean, gotta be pretty blind if you need a scanner to find out where the action's at :P

Dumb? I think you mean Stupid. Stupid? Probably not. Ignorant possibly, yes.

I heard about this event because I come to the boards but I usually only browse the general forum. I really didn't know who The Mitanni was honestly but I know about goons. So I had some idea that something was going on, but not sure what.

But here's the thing, even after I heard about Jita burning, I had to dig a bit to actually find out what it was and why it was happening. It wasn't like a mass email event notice or anything like Hulkageddon imo.

So you have a bunch of people that never read the forums, always have Jita local chat minimized, and don't have goonswarm marked with red standings. Why would you think anything other than the normal was going on?

People don't live and die by the word of the forums or anything else. Some people just play the game whenever and however they feel like. Does that make them stupid? No. Ignorant to the larger game perhaps, but not stupid.

Heh, if I had my Zephyr in Jita, then i'd probably undock just to see how many people would take the shot at me just to whore the killmail - theyd be on me like a fat kid on a hoho.

Always bet on stupid. This cannot be overstated enough. Continue to undock ships with 5bil in cargo into my thrashers.
