seriously, stop associating goonswarm with /b/. they are almost polar opposites - on SomethingAwful, you *will get banned* for trolling. Good posts are the norm and are what is expected. TEST has a lot more trolls than the Goons, including the lord of all trolls, DurrHurrDurr, who is perpetually getting banned and unbanned after diplomatic negotiations from Goon comms / services. Like, multiple times a week.

Goonswarm's culture promotes good posting, and boy are they good at it when it comes to things like State of the Goonion. TEST actively encourages shitposting. We're pretty good at that, ourselves. Though if these forums are any indicator, most of EVE is at least proficient.

If you want to look for /b/ in EVE, I have heard (never firsthand) that PL has its roots in /v/, and Elite Space Guild / Broski Enterprises / whatever they call themselves now (White Tree's group of guys) are directly associated with 4chan.



Goons are not /b/ thats is for definate. and when you said PL has its roots in /v/ i had to check for a sec as i thought that was the furry section (if you dont know what this is dont look it up you will hate all life forever)
I dont normally troll, but when i do i do it on General Discussion.

IMO once it gets filtered and shared with the general public, its propaganda. I kinda wish I could see all the crazy **** you guys say on your forums, TEST's are ridiculously hilarious themselves.

On a tangentially related noted, questions like these fuel my academic inquiry into memetics.

Hopefully you're not aware of "Ponies After Dark".

That's who I'm talking about. They split and regrouped and split and regrouped so many times now I don't have any concept of where they are now. But goddamn do I miss the times they were in TEST. And do I really want to go checking what ponies after dark is?

Also, I think this illustrates the TEST forums rather well. This is the title of a thread there right now:

"Bob Barkers **** after taking 300 mg of Viagra Discussion"

It's a deployment discussion.

There is always room for more rifterbros.

And I genuinely have no idea where we're headed next. Though I'm secretly hoping for another hilariously one-sided defense of Deklein against giant balls of titans. Doesn't Raiden have a couple hours left to get to Deklein before its February? Lol

Broski Enterprises are the ones that recruit from /v/ - none of the PL membercorps hail from any particular forum, except the 5 or so SA goons in ISRAD.

Will you be my friend? I like kittens and have often found myself shut in closet type enclosures.

WoW holds your hand until end game, and gives you a cookie whether you win or lose. EVE not only takes your cookie, but laughs at you for bringing one in the first place...

It's where we get our orders like "show up for mining op #121432" or "camp the 5-S/FG2 gate for 12 hours".

But I think some of the best stuff (like the War in Branch update at the end) got into EN24 pretty fast, and that was an amazing read.

i am posting to inform you that i will not be voting for you in the coming CSM election.

your alliance's complete disregard for any other player outside your sphere of influence, the attitude and behavior of your alliance and thus your own attitude if an affront to civil people, and finally the most disastrous expansion leading to the largest protests i can remember happened wile your alliance was leading the CSM can only been seen at best as incompetence, or at worst a waste of CCP resources that could be spent on better things.

Before anyone accuses me of being butt hurt, i am merely stating what i view as the facts of the matter.

This is my main, not some forum alt, and i stand by my statements.

If you make more threads that go in this direction, you have my support. Was good for a good laugh.
