Forming a fleet?


Greetings capsuleer Fera,

This may be part of it, yes. But I've heard rumours there are non-capsuleer pilots and planet dwellers that keep a recalcitrant, imperious animal known as a "cat". From what I understand, forming a cohesive group is much akin to herding these beasts. Then there are the logistics, the strategic planning and the work involved in bringing about the downfall of the largest Empire in New Eden ...

It is not as simple as "Ask the Cosmonauts to do it for me".

Regards,

Shian Yang

Hello Pilot Yang,

It's us. We are the space cats. POSes are like scratching posts, you simply must shoot it ~

Think about it. It wasn't long ago that the DRF beat the Northern Coalition. They can do the exact same thing to the goons and they don't like them either. Let's pool our isk together so we can pay the translators and work together to bring the goons down.

Down with the Mittani.


The DRF were always pretty terrible, they succeeded because

(1) The NC was even worse
(2) Because they contracted PL first.

Now there is no DRF; RA and XiX have been kicked out of their space and are too busy trying not to fail altogether, SOLAR hates both of them and are having the time of their lives tyvm, and PL won't face 1000 bees in arty Maels.

If you want to beat goons, you'll have to do 2 rather unpleasant things

(1) You'll have to admit that goons are right about a number of things and do them extremely well; training and retaining new players, managing a coalition, instilling a culture of indifference to losses so long as goals are achieved

(2) Put in a few years of constant effort to build up a large alliance and a powerful coalition like they did.


I wish you the best of luck.

You know, we should make some kind of special arrangements.

Highsec has Red vs Blue

Maybe we (and by we I mean you highseccers, of course) should start up an alliance called Band of Brothers. (BoB.) and then have regular fights. Like an unending Great War or continual gladiatorial games.

I'm not sure, but Cobalt Edge has a group of people living in it who love to fight us but sadly are NC. pets. You could try living there, but be independent ! Except on your military industrial machine, of course.

New games are being developed all the time. Soon enough one will come out that is easier to exploit and grief in than EVE. Then you will see a huge gap in the map literally overnight and the little bees will be nothing but a bad memory.

Yeah, their seven year reign of terror is just about over.


Any minute now.




Won't be long.










You'll see. Waiting for some unspecified developer to bring out an imaginary game is the right strategy here, not logging in and playing EVE better than them.

It's not a proper endgame doctrine and you should be ashamed.

Goons drum up more controversy and interest in Eve than anyone else. Until someone does it better, they can keep playing the villains all they bloody well like.

just one question...

what language is spoken by the goons? Shocked goonish ?

and you havent mentioned the players that use located clients and doesn't speak english or russian aswell !

so if "you" want to take them down you should rethink your wording to get "all" involved ! because you would need "all" to get rid of them !

You do realize that the moment any fleet is created, with the sole intention of invading goonswarm space will cause an "emergency" reboot to tranquility. When the fleet logs back in they'll just find themselves back in their home stations...

This is one of the "cool" features to EVE...

Now if people could just act in game instead of talking about it on forums... Kind of tiring to see goon thread after goon thread. I think that if all the Goon haters would have put all those efforts whining about them on the forums into doing something in game something may have already been "achieved".

Is the OP a Goon by any chance? Do they have an internal competition for the most creative "kill all gewns" thread?

Or are there really so many sad guys running around in this game?

Nope...I want Goons to stay right where they are. Frankly if Goonswarm didn't exist then every single ******* in that alliance would be scattered about and potentially in my alliance. At least this way we know where they all are. If you don't like Goons then join an alliance and go kill them.

Sooner or later the big power blocks consume themselves and make space for new ambitious abominations.
