Whatever anyone may think of them, there's no denying that the Goons have helped to build this game into what it is today. Their organizational management skills are second to none, their content is geared for all regions and playstyles, and they are, without a doubt, the best foil/antagonist/enemy/nemesis to pit oneself against.

So, if phat lootz are being distributed to the playerbase, it's only fitting they should get a piece of the pie. Provided, of course, that they support my bid to get a Special Edition Black Frog Rhea (best stats from all 4 JFs, with black skin and red lights) for founding Black Frog.

Perhaps while you're handing out free stuff to people you like you could hand us the keys to Jove space or something. We can put renters there.

Seriously CCP, it's cool, we never mind when you hand trillions of isk in advantage to a group in a cut throat pvp based game. Seems legit.


Seconding this. Primo rentals space given by CCP is hot. Lets do this.

Only place in the north we don't own, might as well just give it to us.

I fully support CCP giving goonies free stuff. If they did it for SOMER they should do it for Goonswarm.

Given the murky nature of U.S. online gambling laws I am hesitant to use SOMMER's services as I buy a large portion of my ISK through PLEX purchases and could run afoul of the law. Please send me a complete sampling of the ships and/or BPOs I'll be missing out on. You know, for engaging with the community over the years.

What is the IRS' stance on gambling gains in isk, i too would like to know before going on an endeavor that might make me run afoul of the one organization more bureaucratic and assanine than my dumb spaceguild.

Well, I'm not so sure about that... I'm pretty sure whatever it is we give our FCs to lead siegefleets for 48 continuous hours might be addictive.

I Support this topic. They add content to the game where others only add supercapital spam and pyramid schemes.

With all due regard to the esteemed representative from Goonswarm Federation, I would like to suggest that the New Order is a far better organization to be blessed by CCP largess. We are premier content creators in hisec where all new players begin their experience. As a miner education outreach program we touch the lives of many new players, encouraging them to seek excitement in New Eden instead of unsubbing after two months of mining while leaving forum msgs of "meh, eve is boring."

You don't have to worry about celebrated ships of the past being introduced and tarnishing their legend. Contract those ships to James 315 and I guarantee we'll give you a hisec killmail with them on the first **** fit retrivever we find.

It boggles the mind that CCP is going to officially endorse a Known Scamming Website.

And not only just with publicity but also by spawning in more items to use in their scams!!

Quoting this as it gets directly to the crux of the matter. Not only is CCP saying they won't ensure it is not a scam. It is highly likely there is some form of scamming going on in the first place.

Which brings me to my next point, Is a member of ccp's staff involved with SOMER blink and its subsidiaries?
