I want to see all that funding in Chribbas hands by midnight 48 hours from now or we all know this is a big gassy brainfart from a scrawny long neck 17 year old college boy scrub.

So, to clarify, Chribba must post here with amount of isk you have deposited with his 3rd party service. Make it so and people will come a calling... Otherwise, you get laughed out of town, and trust me, people are already laughing...

Trust me, I almost know what I'm doing.

The way to defeat Goons has nothing to do with wars and ganking, they want to fight, they would love for you to fight them, thats what PVP is about. And thats the disconnect that so much of the highsec crowd misses.

I'm not in favor of their tactic, don't mistake this for support - But what I'm saying is that combat is part of the intent. So suggesting to fight them is exactly what they are looking for. They want highsec miners to either get pissed off an leave, or become PVP players, because ultimately, EVE is a PVP game.

So really, if you want to directly counter Hulkageddon, and other actions like it, what you'd have to do is bore them off the game by bringing endless hours of staring at a rock to them. Then they'd move on to some other game.

But, since you can't really Destroyer-a-geddon them by running your Hulks out to their home systems, it looks like instead you'll just need to train to shoot of freakin gun. Train to mine smart, and play the game in teams as its intended. Eve isn't really about solo play its about getting in a corp, learning to work with the conditions you have and making your way.

Idle money making, while it might be the play style for a lot of players, is not what Eve is about. Eve is about struggling to survive. There are already lots of games where you can sit around and do nothing and be rich. The world doesn't need another, and even if it does need another, I'd rather that it not be Eve. Get a gun.

I've decided that the best way to hurt the Goons, is by doing the exact same thing they do.
So, i have decided to turn the great amounts of real life money i have, into great amounts of ISK.
I will buy GTC's and PLEX, till i have enough ISK to pay for this and trust me, i actually do have the real life financial power to do this.

Here is the plan:
100 Billion ISK for the alliance with the most Goon kills.
80 Billion ISK for the corporation with the most Goon kills ( note: this corporation is the highest ranked corporation, that is not and has not been a member of the highest ranking alliance, during Goonageddon )
40 Billion ISK for the number 1 ranking player
25 Billion ISK for the number 2 ranking player
10 Billion ISK for the number 3 ranking player
2 Billion isk for numbers 4 to 10.
3 Billion ISK for each player who ganked a POS un Goonswarm Federation null sec space ( only the top 10 damage dealers in each POS gank get the ISK )
1 Billion ISK for each player who ganked The Mittani each time he's ganked ( only the top 10 damage dealers in each Mittani gank get the ISK )

And as a top stunt, i will offer the alliance that manages to drive Goonswarm Federation out of null sec completely, another 100 Billion ISK, even if that alliance is the top alliance already.

cool, which 3rd party will handle the rewards?

I heard shatteredcrystal.com can handle such jobs if you are buying the GTCs through them (just in case you are unhappy with Chribba, Darkness or The Mittani for some reason)

I am as surprised to see that CCP actually moderates this forum, as I am disappointed in you for deleting my posts; however much my examples may have been extreme, they were indeed topic and should never have been deleted, especially not since EVE is built to represent an environment in which individuals are capable of creating a domino-effect of change, just like in the real world. It should therefore not be a problem when I draw examples to real-world wars and paint up a possible future based on human psychology.

So, wait, why did CCP bother putting the non-PvP roles into the game again? Why do their ads constantly talk about how there there are lots of different ways to play this game.

Just because that's the way you want to play the game...

Trying out all the things to do here in Eve - it's quite a checklist. So I made a blog Jakob's Eve Checklist

Please, take a moment to find me the one that says you are guaranteed safety while doing any of those career paths.

Day one, you log in and you are given a newbie ship, it has a gun, and a miner on it. These are not the red pill and the blue pill, what they are is your introduction to the concept that you will need resourses, AND you will need to defend yourself.

Eve does not provide any mechanism or promise of risk free play.

Actually, you're wrong , I'm a highsec miner mostly, ask around. I am just not foolish enough to think I have been promised safety.

Not sure you guys actually read the guys post. Whether or not all that isk is given to a third party doesn't matter.

Nobody but the original poster is putting isk into his endeavor so whether or not he makes payout once the time frame is up doesn't matter.

It's like finding an un-scratched scratch ticket on the ground and scratching to see if you win anything. If you get something, great, but if its not a winning ticket, well, you didn't lose anything because you got the ticket for free.

wondering if all the isk OP is promising will land in goons' pockets or just 90% of it.

I should buy an Ishtar.

So what you're saying here is that goons have griefed you so hard that you're willing to drop real money on us.

Awesome.

I'm guessing your a trust fund baby or inherited your vast wealth, because I just can't imagine someone with the ambition to earn that kind of cash blowing all his time and money on a video game. They usually have far more important things to do.

We've been in eve for years, we're pretty much immune to hours of tedious boredom. We've even got a whole corp who, as far as I can tell, mine all day every day. In Hulks, since they can do that.

If you paid isk to get into GoonSwarm, you were probably scammed.  If you had the foresight to save the name of your scammer, let me know and I'll do what I can to help you.

Well if he actually wanted to make this happen he could just offer say 50% bounty on api verified kill mail values of both ships and pods (excluding pods worth under X million) making it a losing proposition to just kill alts off.
