EVE General Discussion

he does not control you mind merely your sphincter...

So...much....WIN!

I'm pretty sure you use marauders to do that, right? I mean that's what it says in the ship descriptions. Behind enemy lines and all that jazz?

wehad a good fought with team liquid earlier today in vfk. They should let some pubbies fly with them andget a full fleet.

Ah the NPC corp. Such a wonderful mechanism to avoid nonconsenual PVP.

There's ganking of course, but I'm sure someone is working hard on removing that.

CCP hasn't been able to figure out why people quit the game so far... they're not going to care about this nonsense...

So I was pondering this as I consumed my body weight in tequila to connect with my "dusty deserts of AZ near Mexico" heritage in RL.

One of the most amazing part of Eve is the big sweeps in power that the badlands have provided. When my corp started we committed to the "Big Blue" experiment to let non-evil builders not breakers enjoy the wonders of 0.0. Later on we doubled down and tried the BRUCE experiment to create something similar. Prior we were part of the goons where they were just finding themselves in Empire and I watched them go from mostly useless in high sec wars to the new uberlords of Eve. So if I learned anything about Eve is it changes no matter what CCP does because the big changes come from the players, not the devs.

Along the way we saw BoB who seemed more "honest" about their intentions to own all of Eve. They ultimately failed from meta-gaming, not in Eve failures, lots of shenanigans followed and fast forward to now. So our "masters" in Eve have come in many forms, our current is definitely not my favorite.

The Goons, the defacto dictators of life in Eve define the nature of Eve. No longer just null, but the whole game. Without doubt the most successful group in Eve history. So is that it, is Eve forever going to be whatever mittnen's latest ego fart declares?

I hope not, I think we are at the very beginning of an Eve inflection point. Many grow weary of trade disruptions, market manipulation and griefing. Not to mention the domination of a part of null that easily can be described as the most wealth producing areas in the 'verse. If history in Eve tells us anything, its that nothing if permanent. So could we be at the beginning of the end of goon dominance?

While the idea of all of highsec driving the goons out of their iron throne seems unlikely, a change seems inevitable!

So I call out to the other alliances and players that would join forces to put another in the iron throne that mittens claims as his for life. I think the time for this is now. Let's come together and find a way to make the goons join the junkpile that BoB and so many other powerblocks have been tossed on. Time for a change! For better or worse we've had enough of goon nonsense.

Let's pull together and make this happen, I'm ready to push the big red button of change in the 'verse. Eve history says its coming, lets make it happen on our terms!

Lay off the peyote you fat cow.

I especially like the part where you form a coherent plan.

hahahahahaha

goons will **** up

~eleet peeveepee~ will reform voltron and curbstomp goons back to syndicate

hisec scrublords will continue to farm starter content for hours on end and avoid interaction with other players as much as possible

and eve will roll on
