Maybe so, but at the end of the day might a soft reboot of GoonSwarm be better for everyone in the long run? Is Dek really worth keeping aside from the infrastructure in place considering the stupid crap that is seemingly tearing the Alliance apart?

Dek is literally THE most developed region in the game except for maybe Provi.

Ok realtalk:

I'm having this discussion right with someone in jabber now and yeah, I agree. I actually logged in intending to gently caress off to random other parts of the galaxy about a month ago ~ish~ because I was really getting the eve, and eve goons itch but I wasn't really getting the "Imperium online" or "The Mittani Media" itch. This poo poo went down and I decided to fight for our side because... I guess I just want to ride this out to it's flaming conclusion? I hope what comes out the other side is different than the last couple of years.

The number of actual goons defecting/willing to defect and willing to eat the title of "Goonfucker" or "Traitor" was massively concerning from my standpoint. A lot of people I have a lot of respect for are no longer in the alliance or the coalition, the Endies, Themadj, hell even fairly minor figures like Lykouleon and Faphammer. I feel like I'm watching those stupid loving brave coups all over again where something that nominally shouldn't be happening in a happy healthy group is happening and rather than ask "Why" we're too busy giving it a kneejerk reaction.

I will say gently caress C02 though. And Despite reddit calling him a psychopath Tibs logs were my top entertainment for the night.

Well then simplify everything if it's no longer necessary. Gut the directorate to a select few if we have to. Have The Mittani remain as CEO, maintain a good stable of active FCs, and organize the usual group of spergs who get off on doing boring logistic stuff 8 hours a day.

It won't matter if you gut the rest, mittens is the one who wants the super space empire. You'll keep moving towards that again as long as he is your leader.

But here's the thing, I have nothing against moving back toward it. Let's build up a new empire. But lets go through the process of earning it again.

Can't it be argued that aside from Goons first broing up with the Red Alliance and TCF in 2006 that welping Delve was the best thing that happened to GoonSwarm in its history? In late 2009 a resurgent BoB and their friends were taking Fountain and breaking down the gates in Delve as Goon morale and motivation seemed to be at an all time low. Then Kartoon went gently caress Goons and it all seemed to be unraveling. Well then the sov bills went unpaid, Goons had to get the gently caress out, and 3 years later they established the most powerful coalition in the games history.

Domi sov and general complacency while getting fat off of broken Delve hosed us in the end back in 2009. Seems eerily similar to today's situation.

Not sure to be honest. That AV represents Bernie Sanders, who is trying to get the democratic nomination against Hillary Clinton. A very long shot to be honest.
I'm not quite sure what the ironic part is supposed to be about tho.

Wasn't there a really huge lucky break there with TCF owning Deklein by virtue of being part of the old NC but also being an effectively dead alliance so they could just gift their space to GSF? Not so much "we went bust but then we rebuilt from nothing" as "we went bust but then our crazy French uncle died and left us a big inheritance". Don't want to be all "grr goons" or "grr diplomacy", but I suspect that the supply of wealthy half-dead French uncles is pretty limited.
