Congrats Goons, you have managed to wreck the game for a number of players, again

You almost answer your own question here. More to the point, Goonwaffle's behavior is understandable in terms of having no mind at all to speak of. If you rolled their brains down the edge of a razor blade, they'd look like BBs rolling down a four-lane highway.

That being said, it's not such a leap to visualize those little boys who never learned to bathe, or use silverware...hankies...being resentful for the years and years of social rejection (if you call barfing in their presence "rejection".) They've found a digital home, having wrenched their drunken stepdad's p o r n machine from his grasp while he's out pumping gas...or the neighbor's dog...(in-between the molestations.)

Here, they get to get everyone back for not inviting them to the homecoming dance.

Holy waves of nausea, Batman!


Do you cry like this when you lose at Rummy, too? Gin? How about Checkers?

It's amazing that people would pay to play a game with allegedly barf-inducing neckbeards who they claim to hate.

Makes you wonder whose brain looks more like the BB, huh?

Cry? Now, that's a stretch. But, you did get your neckbeard reference in - whatever that is...I don't think it'll catch on, but you can keep beating on it in forlorn hope...if you must.

I thought the game was Gin Rummy...and since I rarely lose, I have little notion how I'd cry if I did.

I don't play WITH Goonwaffle. I rag on Goonwaffle. What's amusing is the neurotics that take my little diatribes seriously. I'm pretty sure Mitt doesn't. I'm amazed you do. Um...do you have a crush on Mitt or something? Try sending flowers.

We must accommodate the idiocracy.

The irony of this thread is that the price of ice did not sky rocket untill EN24 ran its little article. So, if you want to curse a name, it should be them.

At least tears are a semi-public good, as proven by this thread.

I am sure the tears of the shortsighted that did not stock up on Nitrogen Isotopes will fuel you for quite some time.

Caldari fuel blocks are currently selling for 23K in Jita.
Granted, this is mostly due to market manipulation today, but nonetheless, current costs to run a large Caldari POS now stand at 664M/month using that 23K/fuel block price.

It does not concern me much, since I stocked up to establish a buffer.
But I am sure there are many budding industrialists you are ruining.

Well played.

I just wish I could understand what kind of mind Goon leadership must have to derive enjoyment in destroying the enjoyment for many others in this game.

Actually, it is pretty clear. Goon leadership are sociopaths.
It really does not matter that "Eve is just a game, and it is a sandbox".

Though it is quite impossible to do, it would be extremely interesting to have professional clinical psychologists study Goon leaders in and out of game, and compare their real world lifestyle with that of their Eve game style.

I personally believe that the correlation would be extremely high.


I would vouch for the exact opposite. People who have no influence or executive power over others (no regard for the title or standing) tend to be more abusive or tyrannic when in a situation in which they can get away with it.

Chances are that further research would indicate many submitted, repressed individuals in real life.

sigh

to OP

the market adapts.........

I just checked moon t2 prices - guess what? - they have have all shifted upwards

so i pay more for my fuel - and my customers pay more for my product - net result - i get roughly same profit.

Your complaint sounds like you haven't figured out exactly how much your POS is really worth

It should be pointed out that 'Goons' are not doing ice interdiction again. We did that already. There was one corp that was bored and so they killed a bunch of miners all over the place. Mainly close to Jita. I don't know if you've seen their killboard, but they stopped awhile ago.

Now, you just have a bunch of market people who bought up a buttload of stock in this supposed spike. But you want the surest sign that this is fake? I don't hold any Isotopes. I didn't buy or sell any in the past couple weeks.

If we were interdicting, I'm sure I would be making trades. but I'm not. But I'm guessing certain people who run evenews24 bought a LOT before they published their story. Because last time, EN24 sandbagged for a full week after we started the blocade, maybe because they wanted their own oxygen isotopes.

Anyway, keep telling yourself 'oh those damn goonies' when it is actually something completely different this time around.

BTW, if you hold topes, I would recommend selling quickly as the price bottoms out.


Errm you obviously haven't been visiting the ice fields around the Kamio area where Goon and Goon related players are unaware Goons stopped their interdiction. Perhaps you could have a word with Necrofin and his little playmate as they seem to think its still in operation..

The way I see it, you can only go around kicking people in the balls so much before you **** enough people off bad enough that they retaliate. Goons will get theirs in due time. If you are really that upset with them over the crap they pull then just be there when it happens and get yourself on some Goon killmails.

The only good Goon is a dead Goon.

There's tons of goon killmails already. If you can join the ~elite titanVp~ forces of raiden. you too can blap goons with your turrets.

You're right. Goonswarm was the first organization to realize that (n+1)>n. A discovery that shook the very foundations of Eve Online.
