Was it the Tech nerf or the inside job that everyone knows about; but test been trying to cover up ohh so badly.

Or was it Something Else

Discuss.

Don't we have a few Technetium threads already?

Epeen:  Behavior quite commonly found on online discussion boards or similar, where some loser tries to establish his superiority - and thus the merit of his or her opinion - by stating how skilled and awesome he or she is, rather than forming a sound argument. Generally also used to condescendingly refer to someones ego.

Don't read CAOD, as I can't post in it.


It's for player corps with at least 10 members I believe.

IIRC the Goons spontaneously collapse every few years which results in them behaving like vengeful arrogant fucktards and harassing people in spaceships. This begs the question is goons collapsed.

The truth is Goons exist in a hyperstatial position where they are both collapsed and alive at the same time.

I believe he/she is referring to the 2010 debacle: http://community.eveonline.com/news.asp?a=single&nid=3683&tid=7, and if you really need to dig here is the story a bit more detail:

So they're like Schrödinger's cat, i.e. a bunch of pussies?

I think the content for the thread is indeed a little lacking, but overall the topic is actually good one, albeit even if already covered at length. However, the fact that an alliance such as Goonswarm, was essentially halted to it's knees by a few clerical mistakes is actually very interesting, and is exactly what the EvE sandbox is all about. It just shows that even the biggest coalitions are still highly susceptible, even to such a simple Achilles heel such as accounting.

Perhaps OP is talking about the first time goons sort of collapsed.

Otherwise..... Too many drugs?

Or maybe not enough.
