I blame former Roadkill corps for making test terrible.


A swarm of testies paying 10 bucks is precisely that Mittens is hoping for.


I cannot state this enough.

Something awful & Goonswarm are seperate entities. They are as connected to eachother as much as Dreddit is connected to reddit. Nothing more.


Really?

https://wiki.goonfleet.com/Joining_GoonWaffe

Explain away all the SA / Goonswarm ties in that then?

Not that I have a problem with it, besides CCP not creating a level playing field and allowing other corps to openly charge for membership.

SA is not a corp/alliance/coalition website.

This is what alliance/nullsec warfare is like. You basically spy and sneak until your enemy is in a vulnerable position. Then you rush in, steal a few things and make a fancy video claiming you're the best MMA fighter in the world. Then the plebs move back and forth between the alliances and high sec. Rinse, recycle and repeat with the occasional actual battle when someone screws up and attacks when the other people are actually there.

And that's taking advantage of a loophole -- akin to responsible tax evasion (I mean deductions). Smart.

SA membership is not required to be in CFC. However, those that have membership sometimes ask to play Eve.

How is this a difficult concept?


See Bio for isk doubling rules. If you didn't read bio, chances are you funded those who did.

Let me preface this by saying that I have no loyalty for either side, but this is a very sound strategic move for the goons. I find it silly that people consider it cheap that they are making a move when the HBC is cracking. This is called good strategy and is how wars are won.

That being said, HBC's current state doesn't by any means ensure the CFC's victory, and things could go from bad to much worse for CFC if they fail.

I also appreciate the Mittani's directness in stating this is a resource war... likely because he understands that any spin attempt at this point in time with the resource shake-up would be easily spotted and susequently discredited/mocked by the general community.

The man is not dumb.

Is a PAC difficult to understand? Because SA operates like one.

For EVE lemmings, yes it is.

Though I've got nothing against SA... except for the fact they turned off free access to some great LPs and I am terrible at explaining how to play certain strategy games to friends.

The fact that HBC is fubar was the point of my and many other's posts. How did you miss that?

HBC has been dead for a while now. It split into TEST's micro coalition and the Dinner Squadron.

I actually recently added Archives to my SA account. Wow, all those old LPs from way back are still kept around (though sometimes image or video links are down, such is the passage of time).

Something to read/watch while sitting in space waiting for a rokhfleet to arrive.


Also, with newbie drives, if more like we ask them to play EVE.
