I wasn't around for the original stomping(s) of TEST but whatever you guys did it must have been glorious because they seem to be frothing at the mouth over the chance of payback. Seeing the sheer amount of salt on reddit is great, meanwhile I'm just happy to be flying in fleets and killing stuff for a change. We had a Caracal fleet yesterday of 160 odd goons in EUTZ that chewed up a PH Ferox fleet, good times.

They will fail and fail again. Let them think they can destroy us, they don't know crap about goons.

Honestly with people that have a giant case of Stockholm syndrome like CVA and TEST, who wouldn't use them as meatshield.

Pretty sure (~98% sure) they were picked up just for Wrik.

Which name? Money Badgers or World War Bee?

If you find the name Money Badgers idiotic, I tend to agree with you it's loving awful and so was the Honey Badgers

If you find the name World War Bee idiotic, :rolleyes:

In the absence of the CFC having a name it seems fairly obvious that CCP are gonna refer to the name the most active community has come up with. I'm sure that once you decide to start calling this shindig something other than "the war" then CCP'll mention it in a post too. You guys get up in arms over the weirdest stuff.

Rolling back Fozzie sov and letting us use supers/caps without being sodomized by the fatigue mushrooms would bring back more people.

And yes the World War Bee thing annoys me, and I agree we get pissy about wierd stuff. But EVE is real and stuff.

Yeah I'm split on that

On one hand, it makes ratting a whole lot easier because you're not going to get dropped, and you can't fly from delve to VFK in 20 minutes like you used to be able to do

But on the other hand the exponential time increase is terrible and they really should have just made it so you need more fuel and more jumps

I miss the days when people put some effort into the anti-goon propaganda to the point where even goons could get a chuckle.

Explaining to people the tryhard nature of our foe is hysteria now? I feel like you're projecting just a wee bit considering how hostile your language has been while mine has remained civil.

You've made a lot of effort posts about PL which are wrong, you've made a lot of effort posts about MBC that are wrong, and you're too stupid to just listen when multiple people try and tell you the correct thing. So that's probably why people are treating you like an idiot.

There's always a back and forth with EU or US Timezone loving things up and preventing the other from having nice things.

It's like this in Shadow Cartel as well. Sometimes it's almost like two different alliances in one, divided by timezone. In the war vs Did He Say Jump, it was horrid because USTZ was basically just doing nothing but reinforcement timers, and EUTZ was getting all the kills and good fights. Why wasn't EUTZ RFing instead? :iiam:

I don't understand this, there's not a single mechanics or scenario question on there. Most of their interview process is "are you active?" "are you a shitler?" and "do you have someone who knows you better than I do, who can verify that you are not a shitler?"

Literally any other PVP org out there asks stupid questions like "If you had A as your ship, and wanted to (accomplish impossible task), how would you do it?" and then you are subjectively graded based on how stupid your answer is, and or how retarded your interviewer is, people are human after all, except for Flanders, who is a walking PVP encyclopedia.

You made a post explaining why phorde getting the short end of the stick 'builds character' and another about how they shouldn't worry about being forced to do grunt work while completely excluded from flying expensive toys with mainfleet in PL because it's totally cool they're just doing their own thing. Sorry if I wasn't convinced :shrug:

We basically killed them so hard that they landed in faction warfare. Their war CEO is legitimately the most bitter man in eve. Literally every time he opens his mouth "bitter at goons" starts drooling out of his mouth and spilling onto his "I'm angry" big he got off etsy.

It's weird that you see him like that, he always seemed like kind of a goon sympathizer to me while he was my MilDir. Maybe his attitude has shifted, but I don't think it was the failcascade that did it.
