Not really. Usually it's a case of turning with lots of brutix and shooting the freighter until it's dead. If that causes you to have graphics lag I suggest you get a better computer.

What an idiot.


If you can't take what it takes to be the big guy on the block, maybe you need to leave with the tail between the legs as you started.

Because if you can't take the words on the screen, you're what folks consider Goons to be: sensitive weaklings.

All that tear talk, and already reaching for Kleenexes because Ace a three month old throw away alt, called you a twerp.

Seriously, see a shrink.


I don't even...can someone rational explain to me how my calling him an idiot for ... well being an idiot is me reaching for Kleenexes because he called me a twerp (which he never did).

I admit to being a might confused, but that could be my advancing age slowing down the ****** center of my brain, making this completely unintelligible by normal standards.

De'Veldrin's Corollary (to Malcanis' Law): Any idea that seeks to limit the ability of a large nullsec bloc to do something in the name of allowing more small groups into sov null will inevitably make it that much harder for small groups to enter sov null.

Indeed. Most of the so-called "haters" would have never even seen a Goon (or someone from Test) and are simply parroting what everyone else says, because they like to fit in.

Having never been to Null myself ,I have never seen a Goon or a Test pilot (that I know of), and therefore I find myself neither liking nor disliking them.



If you bothered to check local from time to time you'd find that goons are all over high sec. TEST as well.

With goons its all about the isk. Not all about the fun. Its a game guys not real life - unless you are the mittani.

Mittani says as much. They go to war for isk and their main tactic is to deny the enemy fun - even though, blue balling, sitting in a station is no fun for them either. Yet the goons listen like good little dogs because making isk is super important.

I feel pity not hate.

Its not that hard to make some isk in this game on your own. Even buying a plex is like 3 dollars for 100 mill isk. Why take orders from such a pompous clown for that?

As if listening to his shameless self-important speeches isn't bad enough, if you want his isk you have to fit your ships just the way he wants, don't you?

This is a spaceship game where you can do whatever you want and you choose to be a lackey. I don't get it.

I don't actually hate goons, but I hate hate hate HATE the name. Why does one of the most long standing and powerful alliances in the game have such a goofy sounding name? I can't help but think of the old fat lipped stupid mobsters in old bus bunny cartoons when I hear the name "goons".


There's a story behind that.

Why? You're IsBoxing multiple accounts as it is.

Maybe if you had 1 or 2 accounts you can PLEX like anyone else!

Why would I personally PLEX my 5 accounts when people are more than willing to PLEX it for me?

The alliance pays for the plex of all goons so they can play for free?

.

Anyway, here's a list of possible reasons, plus their debunk.





Nope never ganked by them , didn't loose anything in burn jita , they didn't take sov from me ... basically i was never 'harmed' by goons ingame.And jealousy is something i don't have as the general goon does not have anything i still 'require' in this game.Sov means nothing to me , aliance power means nothing , isk i have more then enough myself , etc etc .

It's quite simple , people who behave like a general ******* will at a certain point be viewed as such.And i dislike people who try to **** up people's day be it ingame or outgame JUST to **** up people's day.

We are all born ignorant, but one must work hard to remain stupid.

So the Goons are feeling the pressure because people in Eve don't like them? Poor Goons. I suppose it's not fun fighting a war in which everybody around you hopes you will be humiliated, embarrassed, and wiped off the virtual face of the virtual planet. Too bad. You're in the Goon herd though, so why do you need anybody to like you? Why post these weak little kittenish threads wondering why you're so unpopular?
