I had no idea what Goon Squad was either...but now from reading this thread, it seems a group of TDS sufferers who make it their mission in life to ruin your game.

That's fantastic *drips with sarcasm*

You know what the problem with video games is? TDS. Don't know what TDS is? Message me...I'll explain :D



You can't be serious.

Would like to tell us all what TDS is, but haven't heard of CFC? I've been in this game a very short amount of time and can't even play that dumb.

... often thinks of ceramic garden gnomes, modelled with fedoras and assault rifles, as "goons"... or maybe that's just the 60's coming back to haunt me... Shocked

What, by proxy? Don't think anyone has ever mentioned EXE other than you.

CFC are not Goons. Goons used to be edgy and sometimes funny. The CFC made them fat, boring and middle aged :| This is what having kids does.


A boring "troll" poster hiding behind a posting alt. I'm sure to take your opinions seriously and write them down in my diary for me to think over.

You're right, when answering the OP's question in the actual post (i.e. What is the CFC?) was clearly wrong for me, a member of the CFC, to answer. You have given me a lot to think about today.

EDIT: Oh god, if you're not a posting alt it means that someone who couldn't cut it in the Initiative back when they were being terrible is insulting my alliance, how cute!

Anything they want. They already won EVE; now they rent bits of it back to us.

Goon Squad is the monkier goon communities in other games sometimes take. I think the stand-out Goon Squad was the WoW Goon Squad that was on Mal'Ganis. Don't know or care if they still exist, Goon Squads range from chill, to sperg-tastic, to aggressively terrible in a way that emulates Goonfleet/waffe/swarm.

There are also Starfleet Dentals which are good at griefing in a way better suited to game companies that don't endorse sociopathy as a game feature.

Being exclusionary jerks in video games is what we do. Even if the distinction is purely psychological, it's a powerful placebo, it's generally more fun to play with goons*** than it is with pubbies.

I'm seeing alot of Confusion here..

The CFC are not the Goons.

The Goonswarm was a great thing that got brought down low..

now you have these other allainces claiming to be Goons because they are aligned with them.. Its kinda like claimnig to be in PL when youa re jsut a renter that flies in a few of their fleets >_>

I wanna give a shout out and completely sincere, totally not sarcastic thank you for all the non-goon, non-CFC posters who selflessly volunteered to police Goon Purity in our stead.

Fun fact:

Everyone in Null sec is a goon.

BoBwins Law: As a discussion/war between two large nullsec entities grows longer, the probability of one comparing the other to BoB aproaches near certainty.

Long ago they were just a group of weirdos that would attack any group that seemed to be the most powerfull force in eve
they didnt bother trying to hold the space they took unless people were actually willing to fight for it

think of them as Orks for 40k, all they wanted were fights

\well over time they became the thing they fault, settled down and now hold sov
Im leaving out the stuff I don't know since Im sure others will fill in those gaps

Out of curiosity, is that a definite or indefinite integral of evil?

That reminds me, how are you enjoying you systems that the CFC won for you? I assume you're enjoying them in between losing them now we are no longer there to prop you up?

Cluster **** Coalition.....

They attempt to make a cluster **** out of EVE online, and generally ***** at/on everyone else.

They are also led like sheeple by a dumb little **** that likes to use an international conference in order to try and get people to call and encourage people to commit suicide.

Who is BoB?

Some say he has quadrilateral underpants and lives in a pineapple at the bottom of the sea, some say he is their Uncle and married to Aunt Frances (the short form is censored?), all we know for sure is that he is the Wormhole God and has what appears to be an inactive twitter account

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

Im sorry but TEST is not in league with BoB or Goons in terms of relevance or historical impact.
