I don't think anyone care mates, its only Jita, its not like you hit JIta, Amarr, Rens, Hek, and Doddie at the same time. Best to expect a Meh, from almost everyone and move along. Sure its a sand box game, but making tiny waves is not living in imfamy

I sure hope so. Its been a ****-poor showing so far. I see goons in local and plenty at the gates and jita undock, and yet I saw three freighters and two orcas leave completely unmolested. Biggest thing I saw get ganked was a freaking Sigil.

Come on guys, pick up the ball or go home.


I've been watching the killboards and it's up to at least 30 killed Freighters now. Before this all started yesterday eve-kill.net had Jita listed at 305b ISK killed/destroyed for the whole month, right now it hasn't even been 24 hours and it's up to 436b.

This whole thing would be stupid if they just started ganking the empty freighters from day 1. It makes much more sense to kill the juicy targets until the general population wises up and stops trying to move expensive stuff, rather than ganking every freighter that undocked and going through their cache of ships in a single day.

Keeping this in the sandbox.... The Caldari State would probably war dec CFC, and set standings to all it's pilots at -10..

Would really liven things up then Twisted

Wait, do people really think that what we've seen so far is anything more than a small group that realized people would be trying to move their expensive stuff before the main event started?

Well, this should end up being an education for many people as to what a large scale action actually is in EVE.

Well, I see how theyre planning on making money out of it... charge hundreds of millions in preotection racket and I assume blow em up anyways? (it IS goons after all you expect them to be honorable? lol)

Adorable.

You think we care about losing the money in this? Not really.

Hell, it's not even about killing freighters. We'll settle for 13% TiDi (making Jita effectively unusable) and bringing a little... excitement to a the fat carebears who have been doing their best to destroy EVE for the past few years.

eurogamer picks it up and looks like CCP likes these things

yay


Yay is right.

CCP's soul is intact. The lie about the Boomarang being an exploit (it isn't nor has it ever been an exploit to DELAY Concord killing you) notwithstanding, CCP said everything in that article that they NEEDED to say.

There was a small chance that the festering cancer that is "Carebear Love" might have tricked CCP into deciding to side against Goonswarm. Small chance. But they didn't. They chose to side with Goonswarm. They chose to stand with non-consensual open world PVP. They chose to side with the Sandbox.

They chose to stand with EVE.

Viva Goonswarm!
All hail Mittani, King of Space!

which is a GOOD thing for EVE.

Yeah I know shocking to hear from a highsec carebear right?

This game would be boring as hell is it wasnt for the danger factor

and hell yes CCP likes this. Its called "free PR"

Oh hell tho; the guy in that article said Mittani's real name. Guess you guys gotta go gettim right? Or isnt that important now?

Wait a sec, it says "The Mittani returns from ban to "Burn Jita". " but he isn't back yet, I think?

I ask that CCP declare that since the unprovoked and dastardly attack by the CFC on April 27th, 2012 that they ALL GET BANNED WAAAHHHAHA.




I ask that you do something about it, like form up an alliance, get some ships together, form a fleet and attack back. Maybe try and take some Sov. If you spent half the energy you guys do on whining and complaining you'd be ruling most of nullsec by now.

BTW, if you want to get on a Jita whitelist where you won't get shot, PM me and we can work something out.

To right, what other game offers this? None, they're all watered down WoW clones these days where doing anything like this would constitute bans.
