Why do so many members of the once proud Goonswarm Federation now hide their alliance info in the tags. I can I'm in an NPC corp now.

But as a serious question why? Don't you wish to be associated with your alliance on these forums?

Any spelling, grammatical and punctuation errors are because frankly, I don't care!!

You've really caught the Goons this time! They're not getting out of this one gracefully. You're on a roll here.

If you can't stand by what you say, you shouldn't be talking.

Because they want to make it clear that they don't speak for Goonswarm, but for themselves?

npc alts have no opinions worth consideration

Thanks for the honest answer, that one was actually a real question from me.

Goonswarm are generally hated by everyone outside of CFC and even then people in CFC only really are in CFC because they dnt want to war with a alliance of 9000 people NC-dot are the ones waring with CFC atm dno though i know the south are up in arms with the north but tht aint new

Most likely the same reason they advertise systems for rents under alts.
Sometimes they don't want to alliance name be stuck to what they are doing or saying.
Like the "omg he is goon, must be a scam" or "omg he is a goon, must be lying" and so on.

I'm not involved with the Goons in any way, shape or form. I have been known to sell the odd shuttle to less than savory characters but they could be with anyone, their tag wasn't showing. Arrow

Sad

No, you're right, you're right. My pride is seriously aching, every single day I willfully log into this internet spaceship game.

I see that [GEWNS] tag, mocking me. Staring at me. Daring me to stand up, to fight for myself, to throw off the shackles of The Glorious Mittani and go out into that internet universe and finally make something of myself. To rid myself of this shame, I need only quit my corp, to fly out of Deklein and never look back.

But I know I won't. I'm too comfortable, to dependent on my mother, The Machine. The Machine that buys my Mercoxit ore, The Machine that vends out refundable ships. I know everyone hates me, hates us, and every time I dock up when a neutral enters local, I have to bite back the tears.

I see them out there in Empire, flying their missions and mining their Veldspar. Why can't I be like them? Why can't I join their tiny pubbie corps and fly their tiny pubbie missions and fight their tiny pubbie wars? Why am I cursed to be what I am, to be a Bee?

I don't hide my corp precisely because of my shame. I want the rest of you to see me. To learn from me. To understand just how bad, how shameful, how low you can sink. We all can. There is no turning around for me, for any of us goons.

Do not hate us, pity us.

When I was a kid my father taught me how to handle bullies.
He said, "son, you just drop to the ground and curl up in the fetal position."
Then he'd throw a beer bottle at me. Usually a Budweiser, and typcially half empty, I'm an optimist.

Then he would come into my room at night and teach me about the birds and the bees.
What I learned is that they sting, a lot, at first.
He would punch me in the back of the head, and tell me to bite the pillow. I could hear love in his voice though, I'm an optimist.

Summers were always the best though.
I got to spend a lot of time with myself. I even had my own closet.
They would leave me some bread, and a half full glass of water, I'm an optimist.
