To enforce the rule of the glorious socialist dictatorship known as Goonswarm.


And tears, those too I guess.

But doesnt disrupting commerce in Jita (a main trade hub) just increase the price of everything in the long run?

Kind'a shooting yourself in the foot for the lulz, no?

This game isn't all about ISK/hour.

Alliance morale was GSF's strategic goal.

Keep the line members interested and engaged with the game so they keep logging in.

Sad though that there arent enough superpowers in EVE to keep the giants busy at each other's necks instead of ganking Jita.

Oh well.

That's because about 70% of the playerbase is too stupid to organize.

Good point. I thought it was a Sovereignty mechanics issue. Too easy to hold on to maybe?

To burn the ships they had left over from last year.

This too.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

It's done for the same reason that people climb Mount Everest; to achieve immortal glory by overcoming one of nature's most extreme challenges while sherpas carry your stuff.

The amount of damage done looks impressive however its just a dent in the amount that moves through Jita everyday.
