I know the thread title seems like a troll, but I'd like to be serious for a moment here.

I have long predicted that "Burn Jita" was going to be the mother of all non-events. Ganking in Jita happens all day long, every day. The economic presentation at fanfest told us that more total tonnage of ships were destroyed in Jita last year than any other system. (And by a good margin at that.) From what I've been reading it appears that I'm going to be right. All the Goonies seem to have planned is a long-weekend of ganking. Big Deal. This will hardly be a blip on the radar. The denizens of Jita will take the weekend off to investigate this strange "going outside" phenomenon everybody talks about and business will be back to normal next week.

Goons, I urge you to rethink this plan. You have the opportunity to do something great here. Jita is a vast cesspool of horribly un-creative lazy scams, .01isk market bots, and non-funny trolls. Decentralizing trade in EVE out of the horrible pit of despair that is Jita could be the best thing that ever happened to this game. Unfortunately a weekend of ganking is not going to "burn down" anything.

I suppose goons will do what goons will do and it would be too much to hope that they will do anything beyond a half-arsed weekend gank holiday. It's just a shame really. Why not use all that moon-goo money or even the hulkageddon prizes to fund continued Jita interdiction? BOB's been killed again ... what else do you goons have to spend it on while they work on their next reincarnation?

Ah well. I hope everyone has some fun this weekend. Maybe it'll get to the level of chaos and mayhem. If it does - Enjoy it while it lasts.

I am going away for the weekend and I fully expect Amarr to be the central trade hub when I get back.

Hop to it goons.

I for one feel that we need yet more threads from highsec carebears proclaiming that they aren't worried about Goons just to show how much you all really don't care.

Heh.

So we've gone from cascading after the failure that is jita to cascading before doing anything.

I mean, sheesh, at least BoB could declare they didn't want their sov before cascading, or kick their holding corp.

How did you figure out I am a goon?

This is top sekrit informationsz, and I demand that you retract your statement immediately.

Why would you want to spread around the filth that is in Jita. At least when its there we know where it is and can avoid/ignore it. Imagine if you were flying around and suddenly local lit up with all the contract spam. imagine if that were everywhere...

Despite my posting prowess I really am terrible at this game

We tried to fail cascade once but it went horribly wrong and we accidently ended up winning at EVE Online: Much Ado About Internet Spaceships.

Heh.

What definition of "cascading" are you going with? It seems to have a different possible definition each time you use it.

With the increase in shiptoasting, the Report timer needs to be shortened.

Threads on Goons are rolling in like the waves of the Sea of Terror, and the tide is rising. I am undressing my thoughts and take a swim.

Astute observation of the use of the internet lingo, dear Honda Accord alliance character.
