Goons or no goons, does not affect my gameplay so couldnt really care.

I give myself a purpose on the game, they do nothing for me or my corp.

Let them burn, let them live on, either is fine.

Without goons this game is over.. Only bots and carebears. That's why this game was so good for many years without them it will be nothing just screen server .. Ccp should start to pay goons.


did you vomit a little in your mouth when you thought this ?

goons be goons, this is just a game after all, thinking shite like you just did is one thing,, posting it is another. without goons others would fill the gap. self rightous idiots who think they can't be replaced are high on something.

Lets have the whiners have it, *POOF* Wish Granted. Now that Goonswarm has been utterly defeated, and their characters don't even log on to the forums anymore... What shall we do for player driven content?


Exactly what I did before and after everyone else. I haven't needed any of them. I understand some folks think they do.

But.....if Goons left......who would run the recruitment scams?

Big smile

Everything in EVE is a trap.

And if it isn't, it's your job to make it a trap...:)

You want to know what immorality in EVE Online looks like? Look no further than Ripard "Jester" Teg.

Life after the Goons?

Surely someone else will take up the reigns.

Pending Goons and TEST left, the pet alliances and smaller groups would move in. The Sov map would be a lot more colorful.

Threads like this are pubbie pornography.

If you're not happy with us then I fully encourge hisec to form a Carebear Coalition and take us down.
CFC is in the UMI- area, and HBC is staging in HED-GP at the moment.
Yes, HED-GP. You don't even need to go through lowsec.

Alternatively, we're both deployed, so our capitals are relatively unprotected right now.
VFK is the CFC capital, K-6K16 is the HBC capital.

Are you coming or are you just going to alternate between chestbeating and whining about it?
In a game like EVE, if you want something, you need to reach out and take it.

We'll be waiting for you, should you muster enough courage.

Life is a characteristic that distinguishes objects that have signaling and self-sustaining processes from those that do not, either because such functions have ceased (death), or else because they lack such functions and are classified as inanimate.

There is no life without goons, hence- no life after Goonswarm. Smile

What is this thread about again?

You need to check the OP.

If there's any public onanism here, it's decidedly CFC friendly.

Goons have had impact in Eve. Some were noticeable, some were not.

That being said -

Goons are not the Saviors Of Eve.

There's a "Goonswarm" in every game I have ever played. A powerhouse of a clan, guild, group, etc that winds up being loved/hated for their direct influence and/or proclaimed influence in the game.

If the Goons disappeared and no one replaced them, then it's not Eve that would be dead. It would be the players of Eve who would be brain dead for not seeing nor seizing a valuable opportunity.

Every game needs "Goons" and most every game of any clout has "Goons". It's not a new concept.

You have a fairly healthy attitude towards video games.

Well, I have to admit this thread makes me want to go back to SA forums, where I've been inactive for a while, and to quit Eve!!!

Is that ironic?

Yeah I may as well now. I'd avoided posting in the thread because I figured some day I might want to join Goons in Eve and if you post there before joining, your app would be rejected out of hand.
