When you're resorting to quoting your own posts it's time to face the fact that you're never going to be a great forum troll.

Got you posting. Working as intended.

Now you've gone too far!

Don't ever mention that name unless in reverence to the sheer joy she brought into my life.

Oh, how I miss those heady days of frolicking among the forums. Chasing her from topic to topic. Drinking in the gloriously bubbleheaded posts.

PS Don't make it worse by reminding me she was a he :P

The problem is that they shouldn't do that, and it is liable to cause people to use it as justification for the outlawing of scamming altogether. Its the slippery slope effect.

Whats next? Cant scam in local? Can only scam people who have played longer than five months?

Come on, this change is bullshit and everyone knows it.


Enough Said...


You say its a logical fallacy and therefore a null argument, I say you should HTFU because scamming is a part of EVE and im tired of CCP coddling new players.

I dont recall saying otherwise, just that your argument is meaningless. so how about you HTFU and come up with a real argument?

Remember you can still recruit for local and scam there.

Why Can't I have a picture signature.

Also please support graphical immersion, bring back the art that brought people to EvE online originaly.

Meanwhile, I've been filling my heart with ice.

Reading all of this rage makes me want to scam, gank and pillage.

You're making me train Minmatar on an int/mem remap.

This thread is funny it's full of goons pretending we recruiting scam (we really don't). On that note if anyone would actually like to join GSF contact me ingame and you could be a part of one of the biggest and most comprehensive null sec alliances today!

It would be easier to watch the Recruitment channel with a neutral alt and then open a private conversation with a "prospective member" with an in-corp character. That's why this new rule is so dumb...there is no way to police it.

If a PVP flag thingy actually makes it to EVE, it's still possible to PVP on the market.
Leave it to the freaking geniuses in the heel alliances to invent market ganking.
1. Ask your 500 members in t1 industrials to 0.01 isk markets faster than the eye can see
2. Use technetium income to buy all the strip miners and exhumers and relist them at 10x the price
3. Profit

(There's no ??? step, that's an old ass meme)

New Goons discover fairly quickly that posting recruitment ads in the Recruitment channel doesn't work (apparently there are a bunch of players who literally do nothing in game but sit and wait for Goons to be mentioned so they can cry about us scamming them to other players) so we just have them look for dumb people looking for a corp and then convo them privately. Business has been good lately.



you guys do scam i have been scammed before when i tried to join. i will break it down for you guys who dont know how it works.
1st you will talk to a guy who claims to be a recruiter, he will chat you up for about 30-1hr. giving you all the details about they work, (ofc dissmissing all accounts of scamming)
2nd he will tell you that in order to move down there becuse it is so hostile you will need to contract you stuff to have it moved.
3rd he will direct you to a site the will "run a security check" this is allegedly based upon "algorithms that he doesnt understand" once it comes back as you will have to pay to join, as it always does. he will tell you to pay that ammount of money to him. and he will forward it with your info. api app etc to the right person.
4th while you wait he expresses the fact that they are going to be moving stuff out of empire in the next hour or two and you will want to get your stuff on that trip.
5th from this point either you will be let in and probally kicked once you get all your stuff out there or you will be poded till you leave.

this is my personall experience twice when i tried to join goons. so as this is a sad practice for a alliance i can see who good it works. anyone looking to join them know this the only way the recruit is from a website forum that they charge you to be a member of. i for one wouldnt pay them to join a forum, a few friends of mine joined and paid and had the same results.

Quite true.

EVERY MORNING I WAKE UP AND OPEN PALM SLAM A VHS INTO THE SLOT. IT'S CHRONICLES OF RIDDICK AND RIGHT THEN AND THERE I START DOING THE MOVES ALONGSIDE THE MAIN CHARACTER, RIDDICK. I DO EVERY MOVE AND I DO EVERY MOVE HARD. MAKIN' WHOOSHING SOUNDS WHEN I SLAM DOWN SOME NECRO BASTARDS. NOT MANY CAN SAY THEY ESCAPED THE GALAXY'S MOST DANGEROUS PRISON. I CAN.
