I was there when the only ships were T1 frigates and cruisers. You're both newbs. Now can you please stop the e-peen measuring in newbie QA?

I actually didn't think the Goons where that good for the game once, but I've definitely changed my opinion on that one.

I'm the opposite. I used to think they were good for the game when they were a bunch of crazy newbies in frigates taking on null powers and when Mittens was doing good work on the CSM and such. Now I think they're BoB 2: Electric Boogaloo. They became what they fought. You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.

It's tempting to compare Goons to BoB and there is certainly a degree of truth there. In PH we generally say that the PH/Goons story is just a classic Goons/BoB story, except we are Goons and Goons are BoB. Partly true and partly spin. For example - BoB was aggressively expansionist. Goons are not - they occasionally take space for something to do, but often abandon it as soon as the op is complete - where BoB worked hard on gobbling up as much of the map as they possibly could. Goons and their pets also have a much stronger internal culture than BoB ever did (which is basically the reason they are still here and BoB isn't, when you get right down to it.)

It's good to be as objective as possible in NCQA. For example - saying Goons are like BoB isn't objectively true. Saying that Goons and the rest of the Imperium are a lot of filthy, filthy carebears - now that one is objectively true since they kill more NPCs than anyone else. The statistics don't lie.

Actually, if you keep track of the "most active systems" on Dotlan (which tracks NPCs killed), you'll see that the Russians out in the Dronelands have Goons/Imperium beat by a significant margin. There is some crazy-assed carebearing going on out that way, all the time. I don't know how they do it and all the pvp they do as well.

It's all that space vodka they mine. Keeps their wallets full and their faces flushed.

Let me answer OP's premise "Does the blue donut exist?" with a question of my own: "Since when was CFC at odds with Rus?"

Do we all recall when CFCRus dominated N3PL awhile back? If CFC is at odds with Rus, I wonder what would happen if N3 and PL decide this is a great time to take another whack at Mittens' empire in space.

To be clear, I don't know what is going on in 0.0. Frankly, I believe unless you are privvy to the board meetings of CFC, N3, PL, The Great Brewski Empire, etc. you really don't know what is going on in 0.0 either.
All told, it's always a good idea to find some like minded guys and set up your own alliance/coalition in 0.0, right?
