So the Goons ultimately want to break Eve... to save it?

Confirming, the invasion of Delve is merely so the Sov map has a slice labeled - Goon?

We are not breaking eve at all, we are just entertaining ourselves.

Our plans have nothing to do with anything beyond killing Mackinaws only in Gallente space.

Some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

I still cant get how many people are but mad over the goons jacking the price of 1 of the isotopes up. Oh knoes its the end of the world. Its no different than the type of tears that are harvested during Hulkageddon. They will move onto trashing up some one else for the same reason once this gets old. If you want to avoid getting **** on during these types of events/cycles move into null sec.

Indeed. I recommend Delve. Readily-available docking, plenty or resources, and friendly neighbors!

When it comes right down to it, who cares if they are going after ice miners? Thanks for the warning. Stop mining ice! They will get bored and probably hit Veldspar miners next. So, stop mining Veld and do missions. When they finally get around to harrassing every mission-runner in all of New Eden, they will be stretched so thin as to be part of the nameless background.

The only way this campaign of their can "break" EVE is if a huge number of players either join in the destruction themselves (copycat campaigns) or get frustrated and quit. If the first thing happens, then everyone will at least be having fun burning the world down. If the second thing, CCP will do something to stop player loss.

Nothing to be taken serious.


Quite a few work at CCP and in high positions for game direction etc. So CCP trolls itself now?



Please substantiate this or is it just another "my friend has a brother. who knows..." statement?


I assume you mean other than the guys that have announced themselves on the forums, IE Sreegs. Or didnt you know the head of security is or used to be a Goon?

Most interesting read, can't judge how factual it is though. However, it appears that there's a long term goal to push Eve to a point of stagnation in order to break it badly enough that CCP will have no choice but to fix it, or let it die.

Quote:
In truth, the end result of all of this pairing off and conquering is a goal which has been conjured by the CSM. A statement of absolute meaning to CCP: Fix EVE. Fix EVE fast or we'll stagnate the game to the point where there'll be no wars, no need to fight and no need to play. It's a vicious message, a brutal message and it should, hopefully, be significant.

But there is profit to be made here. Money for the man with a keen eye. Control of all of null-sec under a large coalition allows certain resources to be controlled outright. Embargoes on resources result in hi-sec and low-sec being starved of crucial materials needed to build ships and continue the cycle of production and destruction that keeps the EVE Online economy functioning.


You see this? This is why they suddenly are so concerned about mythical "daytrippers" mining ABC in wormholes and want ABC removed from them. This is why they want ice removed from high sec.

Small wheels in a long term plan, not to benefit Eve, at least in the short run, but to push their agenda. The real question is... these are Goons. Are they really ultimately trying to save Eve, or is this the ultimate Goon Eve agenda... to bring it all crashing down and laugh as they transfer to their next MMO victim?


Welcome to last month.

...and CCP is more than happy to give it to them. The rage should not be targeted at Goons. It should be targeted at CCP for agreeing with it in the first place.

Don't ban me, bro!

Yes yes yes goons are doing it for the attention, and because the DRF is not taking over their space at the moment

This game is afraid of me. I have seen its true face. The stations are extended gutters and the gutters are full of blood and when the drains finally scab over, all the vermin will drown. The accumulated filth of all their mission running and mining will foam up about their waists and all the Mission runners and miners will look up and shout "Save us!"... and I'll whisper "no."
