You seem to have a lot of trouble understanding simple concepts. The free PLEX I get doesn't even come from the alliance.


Does it come from your parents?

Goons don't bully anyone around other then their own members and their own coalition.

During a couple of our recent quite major operations in Fountain I was dicking around in highsec with a couple of buddies doing nothing of any real importance. I could rattle off a list that would get to max-post-length of goons who don't respond to any all-all pings for fleets because they'd rather be off doing something else.

Not sure what I'm meant to being told to do, but I'm not getting the memos apparently and whoever is meant to be kicking us all out isn't doing his job either. Or, you know, you're just talking out of your ass.

What you mean you did respond to the pings so you could be told to sit in station to blueball the enemy?

My point is your leader does not look at this game as a fun break from his real life. Winning is more important to him than normal healthy people. That is why his main goal is to deny fun to the enemy. Unfortunately for goons and cfc that usually means not much fun for them either.

But when the pings come the goons/cfc will respond. Maybe not you. But many many lackeys will. And they will be told to do things to bore the enemy despite the fact that it is boring for them. But they will still listen. Again it's pity not hate.

As far as not responding to pings I think you are fine doing that in goons. But I think other corps have in the past been reset for not showing up when mittani beckons. But then again they are foolish enough to choose to ally with a corp that explicitly says they want to ruin the game for everyone but themselves, so it serves them right.

Yes. Good job, you have figured out my secret. My parents do indeed buy me 5 PLEX per month because it's obviously the cheaper & better option than just paying my sub fee.

I don't really hate goons -- they are kinda like the Uwe Boll of EVE Online. I just wish they would stop ruining good content.

That was actually a pretty awesome version of one of my favourite songs.

Thanks for sharing that.

I'd like to apologize for the poor quality of the post above and sincerely hope you didn't waste your time reading it. Yes, I do feel bad about it.

No it's...

Bad name.
Bad antics.
Bad forum presence.

No one needs to tell others about you, your reputation proceeds you.

That's how simple it truly is.


My reputation proceeds me? Good, glad to hear it, however I am not and never have been a goon... I can say however that they are a great laugh to fly with.

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

This whole thing where you support your argument by insisting you know what people think better than they do is old, trite, and pretty dumb. Much like the idea you think The Mittani could tell the CFC to do things they didn't want to do just because he wills it.

You're creating the concept of Mittens the boogeyman in your head and then trying to push your fear of that concept off onto the people who like and support him. It doesn't work because you fail to see the critical flaws in trying to make an argument like that.

The whole shtick where people profess to be laughing at a group they post hatred and bile for (rather than admit their pain) is really transparent, and the more you wail "no, I'm just making dozens and dozens of posts about them because I am laughing at them!" the more people hear "I am very hurt by the actions of this group!"

That's a pretty self-evident fact of oratory that you'd know if you were even a low-level public speaker, by the way.

What specifically do I have wrong?

Mittens says no fun for the enemy. We can agree right?

So you do things like sit in a station and blue ball them. Am I right again? Is that fun?

Lots of people are in null sec because they like the idea of massive pushes and good fights.

Didn't mittens say no good fights?

Didn't mittens say no big pushes?

Is the cfc ignoring Mittens?

Whats the fun in a sov null sec war with no big pushes and no good fights?

You can claim I don't know, but I can read.
