Tower mails are useful to trick yourself into thinking your corp directors won't see you trying to trick them into thinking you're active toward the end of a purge cycle

Man that was confusing to type

Brother I'm not one of the proles, all I have to do to not get purged is log in every once in a while and keep my API poo poo updated.

EDIT: I think that's a big part of the divide when they say 20k man alliance GOON SWARM FEDERATION. Like at any given time a good chunk of that poo poo is people awaiting purge. I hadn't been active since fountain/delve last year till just now and I hadn't been purged yet.

Also at various points I've had 2-3 characters in corp who only existed to act as mentor cache handout dudes while I was off in the boonies with my actual combat capable characters.

I also know. But why? Just a few months after the timeline you're describing (2013 vs 2012), I never once lied to get mans into fleet to shot pos. Culture does not change that fast.

Probably has to do with it being torp bombers. Bigger damage numbers being shown probably tickle that MMO part of the brain a bit.

Actually it kinda did. Couch CFC and NC vs DRF era GSF was kind of a different animal than the sov warfare monster that purged TEST. Remember the CFC didn't even really come together till the old NC was dead. And the purge of IT alliance was run a gently caress of a lot different than the purge of TEST.

I don't think it was till Delve 2012 that we got the first glimpse of how powerful the coalition we had created was, and it wasn't really tested until Fountain 2013.

EDIT: I mean in 2010-11 it was really just goons and a few allies showing up in really dumb doctrines for the era (Widot sniper hacs).

is Miniluv still being bankrolled out of Warr's own wallet or does it get alliance support?

Miniluv is self sufficient and conducts itself in a manner that ensures it's financial solvency and stability. We also endured nearly 4 months in the red before/during the hyperdunk nerf. We generally do not see alliance dollars except in rare occasions and have monthly budget of around 100b isk. Warr has not been bankrolling miniluv with carriers for probably about 6 months or more.

We are anomalous though, as most SIG's don't have the money making opportunities we do, though I would never turn down some money every month. Although a one time payment of anything less than 10-50b would be drops in the bucket,

I got trolled by paco (or some other bad poster) on goonfleet.com, that SA is the place to be as rude as you want as long as you can punctuate and string a proper sentence together correctly. I got punished, lesson learnt.

SIGS that have a successful proof of concept have strategic importance and get funded. Squads do what they want and do not. Decide what you want to be.

I figured that retaining vets, giving goons WH experience/skills, and developing FCs (see: ckwiesr, foehammer, probably others I'm forgetting sorry) would have some worth. wasn't enough to placate the :qq: IF THEY HAVE IT I WANT IT TOO :qq: illums/whoevers. so it goes.

But then I'd always believed that the empire existed as a means to the let goons do whatever they want in Eve. I got that part wrong. :shobon:
