Really this whole current state of the CFC is a result of a complete emphasis of space empire over fun, and I don't mean BNI version of losing fights, but just being space bullies outside of like weirdly scripted events. we have burn jita and miniluv but it seems kinda.. 'forced' and fun stuff like going awoxing doesn't really happen organically anymore. The only thing that gets rewarded in any meaningful way is walking in lockstep to the accomplishment of the next strategic objective, even if said strategic objective is 'griefing'. No one is going out and say, scouting ratting carriers then finding WH route to go kill them because that doesn't get rewarded. No one is getting awox alts into BNI then leading ratter killing fleets. As such the types of groups that would do fun things aren't joining and you wind up with FA cast offs that show up on fleets but are dull as a bricks.

I've said my piece and don't plan to speak on it further - there's "reforms" coming and I hope they clear up a lot of the mess. I was always going to keep the announcement and the commentary going for as long as the AMA was open and then clam down and go away and leave you guys to do your thing.

I just think Mrs. Mittens sitting there grouping me in with and comparing me to both Gamergate cunts and those that think it's okay to air personal laundry on public forums is rather out of order, since I'm neither. Whatever helps in the closing of ranks, I suppose.

So what are you all getting your Secret Santee? Since it's going to get lost in 100 pages of garbage dick posting anyway no need to worry about spoiling it in case you're trying to keep your identity secret come gift day.

I have ideas, but I am waiting to see who I get and then hope they posted in the gift ideas thread because :effort: sometimes.

This was my gift to my ENL-I santee. I planned for it to be an ALOD, and was going to jockey for it to become an article on TMC, but then azure talked me down and said my giftee would probably prefer to just have the stuff.

basically the blingiest ALOD fit I could manage in YA0 station. I haven't heard anything about it from him, so I don't know what he thinks about it.


I considered a scavenger hunt, but that was just too much effort. I also considered roleplaying as a mission agent on a neutral character, and staging a boss fight ending with a capital, but again, :effort:

There's always next year. Though the mission agent RP thing would be enough fun to do it randomly to newbies.

So I'm not fully caught up but basically there is a load of space drama because an inactive dude had some space privileges removed, and then made a reddit post about it.

Eh, several inactive dudes had some space privileges removed in succession, and then they all made reddit posts about it.

You guys missed some of the really absurd drama from a few weeks ago, though. One of the removed people went literally mental about it -- claiming on reddit that Mittani was using Goons/TMC for RMT to fund his "horny white boy lifestyle" and that he was cheating on his wife with various people. Then he deleted his posts and started threatening to kill himself on Twitter. Then deleted those tweets. Then started posting again on Reddit.

It was amazing, but also horribly depressing.

(But then, if you look at the non-deleted posts on his Twitter feed since then, it's about how Warframe's latest plot twists are offensive to genderfluid people, and his Ecco the Dolphin fanfic, and reminiscing on his first visit to a furry convention. So, I'm left wondering how much of it was internet spaceship drama, and how much of it is just "this guy has some things he needs to deal with.")

One of the nice things about metrics, numbers and ~accountability~ is that we can chart our success by people voting with their feet, and as our numbers continue to grow it's much easier to shrug off howling when the data contradicts it. So we know Elysium has been hugely popular, that Harpyfleets had people saying they loved them yet not actually flying them in practice, etc.
