Goonswarm Federation: The Last Bastion Of True Macho Chat

When we're done nerfing all the other ships, gallente'll be the ones being overpowered.

[MtA]

If it wasn't so much effort and it didn't actually make me stare at EvE I would also have to find some creative way to generate income.

Logging on only for ops and some very expensive skill books ground my isk to nearly zero and I'm now in one-ship-to-be-replaced-when-reimbursement-ticks mode.

Our secret master plan is ruined.

Buff Gallente

If we're switching subjects to buffing, I DEMAND a buff to hull (buffer AND active) tanking be on the top of the list.

Surely a buff to hull tanking IS a buff to Gallente?

Poor excuse to condone botting, especially if your stance is you don't condone botting.

I don't condone botting. I'm just saying that the casual grunts might be less inclined to install keyloggers which also macrorat for you if the PVE part of this game was less like a 70's arcade game in slow motion. Also it would make life more fun for people who don't bot at all, so it's a win-win. Unless you're an Icelandic senior game developer, then it's a potatohat-gallbladder and that makes no sense at all really so it's not gonna happen. Welcome to Reykjavik, population blarghbleuhfffrrrppppttthh!

Wait, I thought it wasn't your job to police the game? Now it's better dealt with internally?

Gotta keep your cheap rationalizations straight here, bros. You flailin'.

You really don't understand the difference between "don't do anything" and "goons judge their own"? I always had you down as capable of more subtle differentiation.

Anyway, Goonswarm policy has always been consistent down through the years about this: directors can give you the go-ahead to shoot goon botters but you don't do it yourself because goons will just shoot everyone that rats in their system.

And that thread is fucking delicious: Evolution dudes accusing Darius Johnson - the man who was in charge when their sainted BoB died - of being T20.

ffs you're in Bat Country ask for corp cash for ops. In any case we're going to be giving out free ships as a corp for Delve this week to those in need. I hope you like dying or not getting on kills cause it's mainly scimis and sabres...

We pay for it with our massive botting empire.

Oh and I'm going to triple-post to once more cite Raph Koster, who said that MMO designers should look at the bits of the game their players macroed, and make them fun.

Corp cash? Botting empire? You mean I can mooch?

[Kitty Vintner]

Can I stick my dictor alt in Bat Country? It can fly sabres and heretics and has pretty good support skills and I'll come on anything USTZ. Mainly I heard you guys have corp roams and I want practice flying dictors in smaller gangs.

This is non-responsive. You're welcome to go back and reread the chain of conversation leading up to this post in order to formulate a proper response to it, or just drop it. I don't care either way.

Anyway, Goonswarm policy has always been consistent down through the years about this: directors can give you the go-ahead to shoot goon botters but you don't do it yourself because goons will just shoot everyone that rats in their system.

Except the core issue the OP of that thread brings up is your official interference in what is the anonymous, individual choice of every one of your members whether or not to report suspected goon botters to CCP, it has nothing to do with shooting them

That's why you guys come off looking really bad to the segment of eve players who care about botting, and that's why mittani's position of acting disruptively yet in the best interest of the game as a whole is potentially weakened.

A lot of people read this as a blatant "don't shoot bots" post, I'm here (as an external expert) to let you know something about GSF.

GSF is about 1/3 Russian and a fair amount of French and German players. The Russians (FSP-T, FSP-B, et al) all have alts they use to jew up their portion of Deklein (the left side if you look on Dotlan). Due to the language barrier, some of these bros don't communicate well and will basically get a bit mad when some superjew that's not Russian comes all up in "their" system and starts running sanctums and stuff during Russian primetime. Generally this isn't an issue, but often times the only way to make sure the point gets across is to make a post like this that will be read by everyone. It's not just bots, it's also language barrier / tz conflicts that causes ratting drama.

tl;dr
language barrier + superjews sometimes leads to butthurt

[Some Market Dude]

The "shooting" part is an obfuscation of the core issue here, perhaps even intentionally so. As I've said, and as the OP of the thread in question managed to (surprisingly) articulate consistently and eloquently, the issue is the explicit suggestion from the leadership of goonswarm concerning the individual and anonymous choice of whether or not members should report suspected goonbots to CCP.

Vile rat even reversed this suggestion in that thread, and explicitly stated that it was the individual goon's choice whether or not to report any suspected bots to ccp, which is of course the wise diplomatic choice.

Again, I doubt the average goon gives a fuck, the ones who follow this thread perhaps even less so. If people stop obfuscating, intentionally or not, I'll gladly stop posting about it.

Man stop polluting my mind with images like these. I read superjew and I think "why is my anus getting all sweaty with need?" And then I remember.



As far as language barrier shit goes, clearly the only serious solution is to turn all the non-WASPs into soap and buttons, and then rape their children to ensure that all children will be properly colored and oriented. In order to ensure that there aren't any issues giving these people their rightful planet to rule over after death, in true Mormon fashion, I recommend an invasion of all against all. I believe the Nazis call this sort of INVADE EVERYTHING landgrab krieg un die kaffersraum.

this goon tries to recruit scam my awox alt while I was trying to get into the DRF for more macro kills

so I lead him on for like an hour letting it slip that I want to jump in my nyx as he tries to get me to post the API key

finally I go afk, pretend I crash, relog, pretend a PL spy tricked me into joining his fleet, finally ask the goon to form a gang to escort me

I get him to screenshot the fleet - its now been like 2 hours since he first convoed me

I was the recruiter I mentioned in jabber that there was like a 40% chance of a nyx and everyone was like 'ok lets make a fleet', 'i sent a broadcast' etc. I was becoming more and more certain it was a troll but by then it was too late. Well played, Gobbins
