Yes Diamond Zerg.

Please keep us abreast of your efforts to join goons.
I am thinking I would like to also apply to play with the cool kids, but am afraid I am just too dorky.


Such honesty, brevity and candor... have you given up tinfoil trolling for New Years Dinsdale?


For new readers, yeah, guess the sarcasm could easily be missed.
However, you should know better.

I am twisting and perverting a line from the wise and great Groucho Marx here, but if I truly wanted to be in the goon's club, then I am a lower class of human, and should be forced to quit Eve.

No one respects crude blobbers that have no skill anyway.

I've also heard that RAZOR has a "no smack talk" policy, which doesn't appeal to me.

Actually it's a "don't talk in local with hostiles present" policy.

10/10 for eliciting this many responses, but 9/10 for failing to fool me.

Hello, I am a recruiter for Goonswarm! To gain entry, a deposit of 500m isk to my account will override the Something Awful Forum requirement, along with this:

-Full ship replacement!
-Free ships, skillbooks and capital ships!
-Fly with the best and get free isk for FCing!

Many others make this claim, but I am working closely to get you into goonswarm!

I was going to give you 1/10 for that superfluous post... but that mustache bumps it to 9/10 minimum.

Lets be realistic here.

How many bands do you know where you can name any of the members besides the lead singer?

Are they very supportive of letting somewhat new players learn how to command fleets?


Depends, what's in it for them?
No, only fleets of newbs to be used as cannon fodder, er, strategic diversions.

Wanting to be in Goons is akin to wanting a flaming gasoline enema after being sodomized with a rusty metal fencepost..

Wrong and wrong.

Blues are blues, even goons who post badly will get whacked by deadtear.

In fountain, there was a broadcast fleet that was something like "a newbie wants to learn eve by starting a fleet, please help them by joining". I don't remember what happened to the fleet.


Somewhere it was noted that newbies that start off leading fleets tend to actually become FCs, vets who try after a year or two are less likely, or such

Isn't that what test thought?

They're very respected now

That's what I said, basically.
Their reply was more or less "we don't sink to their level. Now shut the **** up."

I will not be surprised if we eventually reset them.
