Does GOON pay CCP? They seem to get away with a lot and nobody cares.

Doubt it, but we don't keep score anyway.


There are bigger suckers out there? I suppose, tears are after all water - they dry out when exposed to time.

We do, in fact, pay CCP. It's called a Subscription fee.

We also pay them in laughter and tears of joy.

Actually.... I'm a little concerned myself. I was contacted by a GoonWaffe "recruiter" about a month ago. I tend to hold the goons in high regard, but I had to really think about it because he was asking me for a lot (half a billion isk deposit, etc). I got a recruitment code thingy, and haven't heard back from them. I do believe that we have been scammed.... but that's EVE, isn't it? Move on, get new stuff, get over it. I'd like to hear from some Goon leadership next time if they want me to join, and I won't be providing another "deposit" even if it means I don't get in. In the meantime, I'll just stick with an NPC corp, and do my own thing. If I get interested enough, I'll probably start my own. I have the name of the recruiter, and I fully intend to get my revenge when the opportunity arises. That is, of course, if this isn't just a very long wait for the application to process. I'm still waiting to see. Going to give them until the end of January at the latest.

If any forum Goons read this, I would actually really like to join.



So torn apart between playing the hard-liner who shrugs it off, moves on and the hopeful boy who still hopes to get candy and asks yet again and again. Lovely!

Holy heavens have mercy, Gossamer DT making a post with no spelling mistakes.


Ambiguous formatting and punctuation though. I imagine that once, many years ago, Gossamer was a sane and normal person. But then one day while fuelling a tower he just snapped and since that point only those with expert knowledge have been able to understand what he is saying.

All I get from La Nariz is a mail saying he has eyes in all over Eve and knows what is going on. Sad part is, he was in the convo with me and the recruiter scammer talking about some capital program they never had.

Now all of a sudden I am back on the recruitment channel seeking a corp and the same scammer using the same name sends me another message asking if I would like to join their corp. I laugh at him and tell him he is the same kid that scammed me the other day and all of a sudden I am getting a mail from some GM saying I have been warned for using harsh language toward some kid who got hurt and cried about it. That I could use the petition to challenge the warning.

So they are allowed to do whatever they please and say whatever they want and nothing happens, but when someone laughs at them for trying to scam the same person twice I get warned?

Since plex's are considered in game items, that can be bought with real money. Does that fall under fraud? that can be taken to court? Seen a news article a while back where a guy tried to sell a game account online and was scammed out of it and he ended up taking the guy to court, even tho it is against the EULA to sell game accounts, but the judge awarded the case in his favor since real money was involved and made the scammer pay him back.

So since I am from the US and this guy is from the US that means I could possibly seek the same and take it to court?


Honest question goons. Does this reach the top 10 in hauls you have made from people who think they can get into goonswarm in any way but :tenbux:

This is very confusing, in order to fall for the Goon recruitment scam, you would have had to be a noob. On the other hand, you claim to have 4.5 Bil in Assets? Oops

What, pray tell, is "GOON", and why does their hard earned subscription money differ any from yours?

Goons are people that belong to this really bad forum called something aweful.

It is just wall to wall bad posters.




Can I have some bounty money now Lol

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

I find Goonswarm representatives very respectful when they're scamming. Dont know about anyone else.
I guess in the private convo you were quite rude and possibly offensive towards him.

I have now seen the logs. I am horrified that ccp have not permanently banned the original poster for vile racial abuse. Had he used such an epithet in public he could have been charged with a criminal offence.

Ccp's leniency in the face of such racism and bigotry is shameful.
