Honestly GOONs aren't as big of a problem as people like to make it out to be. If you aren't stupid and you try to stay out of their way you won't wind up falling victim to their antics.

Watch_ Fred Fred Frederation_ and stop [u]cryptozoologist[/u]! Fight against the brutal genocide of fictional creatures across New Eden! Is that a metaphor? Probably not, but the fru-fru- people will sure love it!

it's brick squad doin the hisec incursions not goons you god damn git

TA on wis: "when we have a feature that is its own functional ecosystem of gameplay then hooks into the greater ecosystem of EVE as a whole, and it provides good replayability."

And in truth all the Hulk wrecks I find have Flying Dangerous cruiser wrecks, not goons but we all know how Meta works in EVE. It isn't who you are, it's who has your leash.

we currently live in Fountain which is the perfect place if you want to harass goons in Cloud Ring/Deklein - relatively safe ratting grounds, access to pvp in npc Fountain, Cloud Ring, Delve and Aridia, a military director who is allegedly a nulli spy, strong allies, a growing alliance with many opportunities, ...

OP (and everyone else) should seriously consider joining us. We're real and goons know we're coming for them.

Check us out on http://occupy-eve.com/website/ or visit our in-game channel 99 Percent.

You know eventually they will go away or they will evolve into something else , just browse the old eve files and look at the average lifespan of alliances and coalitions and their history ,
Patience is a virtue one day their leadership wil get bored of this and leave others take over and tho name stays the same they will basicly be another alliance with other goals and other ideas, happens in every MMO no matter if you call them corporations or guilds

Goons already had a huge change a while back and got them selves almost destroyed because of their leadership
they recovered , they still the same alliance with a slightly mentallity change ,only new leadership and slightly different name , same will happen in the future 
so this is permanence

so far we (EVE players) have reason to believe that alliances/corporations that are founded on strong OOG communities are much more stable/resilient than your average EVE corp.

maybe that will turn out to be wrong but it seems plausible that a strong common background that is shared by all members ("culture" of their OOG community) and access to a huge base of potential EVE players that can be tapped with recruitment drives are real boons. The desire to remain part of the (oog) community can also be seen as a form as collateral that disincentivizes bad behavior in EVE.

talking about anecdotal evidence it is also interesting to think about the type of community found e.g. on reddit or SA and compare it to the 4chan /b/ and /v/ communities - very tempting to draw parallels to the fate of their respective EVE corporations.

Dumb person who doesn't realize that everyone knows this and are all poking fun at it. The rest are just enjoying discussing the implication of what the OP is speaking to.

I seem to remember someone saying there are no goons so I wouldn't worry about them tbh.

Bob 3.0... or is it 4.0 now is working on this.

I am sure they will get it right this time. P


They just lost the ability to dump titans on everything in our space and for some reason are now refusing to fight with ther subcaps as we rip down tower after tower.

Fake, goons don't have caps.

"We will create the introduction thread if that is requested by the community. Also, we will have an ISD Seminar about the CCL team in the coming weeks in which you can ask your questions about the CCL team and provide some constructive feedback to us." - Countless pages of locked threads and numerous permabanned accounts later, change is coming.

Goons will be fielding T2 and cap ships, so we'll definitely need to field ships of the same caliber. Please send me donations so we can start the onslaught against the goons!


Yup those T2 ships like t2 drakes and t2 maelstroms.

And Highsec, THIS? is your chosen hero?

Highsec's god is ISK.
And nothing else.
No heroes, no saints.

First post on forums \o/

If OP goes ahead with this, he's going to find himself entering nullsec with 2 newbies and 197 Goon alts following him . I will just watch from a distance, thank you.

If you are real good at covops, you might be able to find a safe place in the bubbleswarm on the torrinos gate.

Its bound to be flashy and amuzing Lol

solution:
join the 99%, get blue standings with FA/TEST/BDEAL/ESG/-TF-/... don't worry about dangerous logistics or lack of docking rights anymore and shoot goons as much as you like. The friends of our friends are our enemies.

we don't have technetium, we don't have recruitment standards and we hand out free rifters if you ask nicely. we also recruit corporations.
