A policy is there for a reason - the reason is sound. It doesn't have to be an honest statement or even make sense - it only rely's on the signature party to understand and agree to the terms no matter how weird it actually is.


I was 13 when I realised my peers didn't read contracts.





I should have had free lunches for the next two years from the entire class.


They got off easy

Its time to stand up against the bad empire based CEO telling falsehoods about what new characters can accomplish and pushing them towards an in game experience of drudgery and loneliness keeping them in the shadow of ignorance for at nest their own profit at worse apathy towards all the experiences that Eve has to offer.

Goons never scam; I don't understand why there are so many threads posted involving these terrible character assassination attacks on our reputable alliance.

On a completely different note, as a licensed and accredited Goonswarm Recruitment Officer for Bat Country, I can assist you with the process of applying to Goonswarm should you choose to do so. Simply contact me, and we can go from there!



You tried to recruit me once, you were sooooooooo friendly, pity about the money that I was gonna lose if I applied.........

Aaawwwwww, those goons, scamming everyone they can, then RMT the ISK...

Wait a minute....this....isn't new news. Haven't they been doing this ever since I first heard of them. While key people looks the other way, hence why they're still doing this.

Might as well get used to it...

If you're going to accuse anyone of RMT then you should be ready to supply evidence or simply admit that you are the kind of person whose mind doesn't distinguish between truth and truthiness. Take your pick.

You sound surprised. I thought it was common knowledge that Goonswarm were scammers, but it seems you missed out on that note, which caused you to lose 2 billion ISK. Nice job. I am sure Goonswarm appreciate your donation.

Note: I don't support Goonswarm, but I'm not going to actively go against them either. As long as they leave me alone, I won't have to rally a fleet of allies to bring down Goonswarm or the CFC in general. Then again, even if they did give me a reason, I doubt I'd be able to raise a big enough fleet to take on Goonswarm and the CFC.

This is especially hilarious considering who you pay rent to every month.

Goons are charitable people. We do not lie, cheat or steal, nor do we look favourably upon those who do.

In fact, not long ago we sponsored a school in Haiti and contributed $80,000 between us. They used the money to more than double their budget, fund adult literacy classes and do other awesome stuff.

I thought I smelled something, the oily stench of another forum corpse propped up with stale pronouncements of "******** noob, it's Goonswarm, learn to read!"

Well here's my contribution to this necrotic circle jerk.

OP and everyone else waiting in line to fall for a Goon scam, instead of trying to buy your way into the cool kid crowd, (admit it, that's what you're doing) do what the Goons did and play the damn game.

You could always join the bigget (ship) fleets ever, the famous titan blobs that are supposed to be able to hold off goons with a mere finger on their turret module.

Did this war ever happen, or is this still in the discussion phase?

We must accommodate the idiocracy.

Seemingly GS is mostly comprised of US pubic.

A common thing is to pump out so much BS, that even Jesus himself can't take it.

"Lord, how stupid must scammers be to come up with made up shift on daily basis"

Disaster in brains is when scams are made by stupids.

This post sums up why the 'best' work with DCM inc.

I thought the best documented scam was the EVE bank? Or is this a Goonswarm alt. posting propaganda pieces?

If someone demands money for services they haven't rendered, you have the right to walk away, where the hell did peoples common sense go? I swear the internet these days is just a trap for the stupid.

A post I can finally agree with...

Besides, why would anyone pay 2 BIllion to join ANY Corp even if it wasn't a scam???

There is a difference between accepting or even enjoying that the game caters for all playstyles and contains many whos entire existence is about scamming and griefing others, and taking pleasure of doing this yourself.

Contrary to popular belief, the majority of EVE players does in fact not scam, grief, cheat or steal. It doesnt mean that they dont like or cant like the game.

Player driven content, this should tell you something?

Then if you have to blame someone it's not those doing whatever IS ALOUD in game but blame those incapable to fix gaming rules, right?

Yes it does. Some of it will be people scamming, griefing, cheating and stealing. Most of it will be other stuff.
