Why don't you post it. With links.

... some data with links

You copy/pasted that list even though there are entities missing from the "Known Enemies" section. I think you knew this and posted it anyway because you're so mad about Goons.

you answered without any numbers/links/details. Your post only contains accusations.

I think you have nothing to say outside of standard goonie crap

So has this turned into another "Waah, the CFC blobs!" thread? Everyone tries to field superior numbers. CFC succeeds at that more consistently. Get over it.
and at the end of the day, reinforced systems cap out a little over 4k players, which people like TEST should have been able to fill up at least twice with their player count. It's not like the CFC are the only people fielding large numbers.

And hey, from what I've seen being part of them, the CFC are considerably less elitist that many of the others. A lot of them like to have this image of them all being evil and stomping on pubbies, but realistically, they appreciate the little guy more than most, since that's how Goonswarm always was, with the idea that it's ok to suck at EVE, but if there's loads of you you can still get **** done.

Not all Corp are the same, so what did you realize?

It doesn't really matter what hands there are between you and your overlord. You are supporting the entity that is keeping you from exercising sovereignty in that space. If you are doing that willingly, willfully, then . . . what would you say that makes you?

I realized that man is something of a prisoner of his own inner nature, no matter the milieu.

Did you mean to say "surrender your identity and personal sovereignty to the leaders of the group in exchange for a limited increase in resources and abilities"?
I don't have to be the best at everything. I just have to be good enough to get the job done, and striving to get better is one of the hallmarks of gaming. But, this isn't a game; is it?

"Look to the group.", "Don't shut yourself off from the group.", "The group has answers.", "Trust the people in your group." . . . you're starting to sound like a cult leader. That would certainly explain a lot about why the Goons are so unified and motivated.

I have no problem with you making such comparisons. I just thought that in that instance, the comparisons you made weren't very good.

thats the main problem you guys just teamed up with everybody, there is nobody to crush anymore, thats the reason nullsec is so ******* boring, goto facebook there you can be cool with your 10000 friends, for this game that habbit just sucks and it is inappropriate! I mentioned it already, I did not join anybody out there because it just reduces the amount of enemies! you people search for 1 ship in a group of 10-20 thats pathetic! start to fight other corps out there! get out of your comfort zone!

the day to day PvP is **** in Sov space, you might have your big fights once a year who knows, but the day to day gameplay is lacking because you could not handle the excitment!

Harry, do you actually log into EVE? There's at least 3 wars going on right now in different section of nullsec. TEST are redeploying to start hassling CFC, CFC are deployed to delve, Tribal band an -A- are currently fighting, 401k are redeploying after being crushed by BL, IE are hitting razor, PL are heading to delve, the list goes on.

You are an absolute moron if you think everyone in null is just ship spinning. Just because you go to an empty system doesn't mean that sov space is empty.

****, I have seen this one kill yesterday some 70 jumps away from my current location, must have been you guys hot dropping on an ibis... I should have gone there... you are right, its me, I need to try harder to find the fights

Of course you don't. Because they don't support your argument. Just as I don't think your comparisons to slavery and indentured servitude are very good.

People are bad at diplomacy & making friends, so the correct course of action is for CCP to level the playing field for those that have bad people skills.

I know you're being sarcastic, but I know the answer to this question and I like the answer to this question, so imma blurt it out anyway.

Jealousy and paranoid entitlement.

Amiright?

Except its not a limited increase, its a significant increase in some areas and an exponential increase in others. And you don't have to surrender any of your identity (Also what the **** is personal sovereignty? Is this you? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RfVbiefMdNU).

No, you don't have to be the best at everything but your refusal to outsource tasks you aren't good at removes your right to complain about them. I have no idea how my car works but if it broke I'd either find a friend who could fix it or pay someone to do it. I wouldn't sit around complaining that I can't go places as fast as other people.

Its generally called a society or a community. If you think any form of society is a cult then I've got some Bitcoins to sell you.

Well, that's what we call a joke. It's a way of pointing out the absurdity of your statement.

I actually am the King of Spain, which makes it even funnier.

And you're confusing EVE with kindergarten. There's no handholding here.

Your comparisons didn't support AN argument.
I didn't compare renters to slaves. I straight-up called renters slaves. They're space slaves.

You have 30+ thousand "friends"? I think you should revisit the definition of the word "friend". I don't think you are completely grasping the concept.
