Intergalactic Summit

The war is going on.

Chelien was suffering under the all watching tower of Goonswarm Federation. With great effort Your Advertise Here has today annihilated the Jellies effort of space superiority in that system. Our fleet removed the tower from it's position. Hope we will not again be brushed away by their bureaucrats who claim they are unable to recover the deconstruction order from the ruins.

The filing system of the Jellies is quite… jelly, if I may comment. And I am sure that you, sirs, have invited us into this desconstruction by ordering our services. Maybe the infamous Caldari bureaucrat Kafka could help them to straighten it up. Well, we tackered some wreckage of that tower to a nice space mobile, a sunwind-play installation that is quite nice to look at. And don't forget the fireworks that were enjoyed by billions of Gallente colonists down planetside.

While we started the hyperspace beltway in Jaschercis, our construction workers that follow our wake affirm that the route to those systems is now without the usual shaking and rattling that passing by this tower was causing. All travellers now have a smooth and easy flyby.

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding, Goonswarm Federation.



What? Okay. I understand. We would be pleased to send you a team of engineers to repair your implants, sir, but I have sadly to admit that all our mechanics are at the moment occupied by the important tasks of road construction. Please hold the line and enjoy the music until the next free technician accepts your order for POS removal or adjust maladjusted brain-functions. We have a bolt gun that's working quite well in the latter case. You should not feel any inconvenience, sir, and your brainwaves will be as smooth after the procedure as the travel over the hyperspace beltways constructed by Your Advertise Here.

We are happy to serve and enjoy that you have chosen us as your supplier, sir. The war has gone into the next week thanks the all those who were supporting our cause. Our donations account is always open. The war will be continued as long as the weekly payments are fullfilled on the corporation wallet.

Thank you, dear customers.

The war is going on.

Yesterday we found an other couple of Goonswarm towers. And while one of our warriors was patrolling them, removing the modules and cashing in the ships parked in the hangars, we have seen the first response of the bull. Like on our farm the bull was getting a bit unease while I was hammering his balls to goo. Twenty-one of them showed up to counter his attack. He of cause had to withdraw and dock.

This is the meaning of hit-and-run, attack, destroy, leave their effort to counter with frustration. See, what we are doing in this war is showing a weak spot of Goonswarm. A point where they can be broken. As I said earlier it's not all about Sovereignty and zerosec dominance. It's about pride, about looking good or bad, about feeling strong and superior - or about being laughed at. About hammering balls. About oxes. Join them and lose them.

How to destroy Goonswarm?

A single corp of some newbie players like us can't of cause - not alone. We are all just Rupture pilots and that. But I believe if people are searching for "How to destroy Goonswarm" in future, because they want to find a good way to hurt them down, they will find this posting. And will get the idea. Make them look bad. Destroy their assets, their haulers, their high-sec presence. There are several things "the swarm" can't change. Even if they count a lot of numbers, the people they are drawing in are just brainless swarm soldiers, that do nothing alone and they wait until at least twenty of them are assembled.

Last count Goonswarm was around 6500 members. Say that usually not more than one tenth of this number is on duty. So the jellies can form up to three fleets of 200. Three fleets can't defend against a few hit and run gangs. What we have seen yesterday was a very special thing for Goonswarm. A fleet of just 21. They try to adapt because even if we as a small battlegroup of five, six or seven can not do any serious harm, I believe a couple of groups like ours can. Because we are on the soft belly of the bull. And indeed, we ARE doing harm. Enormous harm for the size, skills, ships and effort we can fleet.

And they have to stop us. If they are ignoring this kind of warfare and we go on and are able to post win after win, others will follow this trail and slowly will grind them down. Like ants would empty an open honey pot - by little pieces. I am sure our approach is not the only one, but it's one that's working well. Not everything is about money. A lot of things in this world is about balls - about image and pathos. It's not about money to recruit new pilots or corporations. It's sharing image. Destroy it, make them look bad as we do at the moment - show that they are helpless against us and lose tower after tower, go kill industrials and haulers, attack the logistic and we'll see…

The kind of pilot they have in their ranks are pilots that love to follow. Pilots that love to fly in big fleets, are lazy thinkers and usually this kind of material doesn't act or move if not told what to do. This is what the idea behind this "swarm" is.

Real swarms are not like this. Just to defend the idea of a swarm. Real swarms have a lot of initiative on each member of the swarm. They don't fly "with" the swarm they fly "for" him. But this would need an other kind of warrior to recruit. And with the stuff the jellies have, all they can do is cook jam.

They can try to adapt. Small hit-and-run units like we are can be indeed countered by units of twenty or so. But this will draw off a huge percentage of their able fleet commanders from their "real" front in the zerosec warzones, back to the civilian hinterland, directly into the arms of the Partisan groups like us. And with good fleet commanders able warriors are gone, leaving just the brainless jellies. Like in a resistance fight against an all superior enemy our group has to force the enemy to divide himself. With this we are weakening them on their main front more than we could do if we would fight there.

It's in fact a resistance fight with all aspects you find in a battle like this. We of cause are living from support of the locals, which are up to now providing us with enough ISK to keep up this wardec. They so to say provide us with food and wine and I want to thank those of you very much for the kindness.

It is not a good option to pay the ransomer. To help the occupier with his task. To collaborate with the enemy, to finance him with money. To support the murderers of civilian Ice miners in the belts of Gallente systems. It's the way that leads to more and more trouble. The only answer is total resistance, is total fight against the aggressor and destruction of everything that he shows up with which can be destroyed by your small group.

Total resistance!

No, she's acting like blowing up an undefended control tower is some sort of massive accomplishment. If the Goons were hurt by such easy and commonplace actions, there'd be none of the ******* left.

It's not about doing something special or not. It's about doing something at all. Most people do nothing. Dictatorships rise and take over, kill millions of people, wage war against everybody because the majority is standing by and doing nothing, just let it happen. Mafia organisations like the Angel Cartel is on the rise because people are doing nothing. They accept to pay ransom to pay protection racket and things like that. And effectively not just doing nothing but supporting the evil with this.

So to act in the frame where you can, even if it's very small and to do this in public, animate people to do the same - this is something. And all people who just stand by and tell everybody: "What's that all about? It's helping nothing!" are those who in fact are the source of the evil. Stand up! Rebel! Yell!

So lead - follow - or step aside.

My parents who were born as slaves of the Amarr Empire have seen mothers who were breaking their bread to support the rebels that were actively fighting the evil in the days of the rebellion. Those were fighting.

Those who just lament how nobody can change the world as it is and that we better shall learn to live with it instead of trying to change it are really the losers of history. Those get forgotten, but the heroes that pick up the fight and do what they can, those live forever.

And no deed of the free is too small. The Goonswarm will be gone one day. An I will be there when that happens. People said: "The Band of Brothers will never be defeated!" We have seen them gone. We have seen CVA kicked out of Providence. We have seen the break of the largest and mightiest alliances, we have seen the Empire tumble and fall. We have seen the Elders wreck havoc on a Concord station in Yulai!

And you tell me things can't change? They can. Trust me. And they will. It may start with a slave that is slaying his master with a Khumaak. it may start with a few newbie pilots that tear down a couple of small towers in hisec. But it has to start somewhere. Someone has to rise the Khumaak!

How long will Goonswarm tolerate this affront upon their manhood? Are the Goons indeed the mighty bumblebee, or are they just in it for the honey?

Are YOU a bad enough dude to fight the evil goonies?

Show me proof of your campaign against Goonswarm and her allies in the form of API-verified lossmails, and I will personally finance you to wage a private little war.

I wonder why my offer hasn't been accepted.

You will fail in your attempts. I have faith that the Right Honourable Companion of Honour Lyris 'Sky Captain of your Heart' Nairn and the rest of the honourable Goonswarm space alliance will stop you dead in your tracks.

I don't know about True Slave Implants but...
