Does anyone have a cheatsheet so I can figure out which posters are actually concerned, which ones are just dumb, and which ones are concern trolls? Because everything seems to be blending together lately.

Seeing as how that is what our enemies want the most, I'm pretty sure that will never happen as long as it continues to "rustle their jimmies" or whatever term dumb redditors are using these days. Howling, angry, shitposting enemies are the best kind of meat for the grinder.

doesnt it look like his making fun of himself tho ? similar to GreedyGoblin ? Speeches and motivation is nice when it has anything to back it up.

It's obvious why people go into PH, PL is somewhat a "cool boys club"
Test is big and sort of succesfull now, and also the shitposting is over the roof.

What's to look for in Goonswarm? Before it atracted carebears and "summer kids" cos of fat isk ratting.
there is no ELO, there is no isk ratting, there is no legendary fc's. there is only Mittani do anyone really thinks that is enough ?

not reform. There was other ceo's before and hopefully will be in future. Mittani was the best at keeping the empire runing smoothly all this years, i have my doubts about rebuilding it.

everyone can make his own opinions, i would actually like to see a proper GoonSswarm rise again, and less of the imperium crap.

Good morning thread, I trust we are doing fine today. I read a lot of posts about losing territory this morning.

Does that mean when goon guys own sectors of space that it is seen as you are the law and can just zap people who come into the sector and not worry? Is that what the fighting is about? Who has most of the no security areas?

Tonight I am going to start the industry missions! Rock and I are going to level ourselves up!

Also I am delighted to see other people chilling and mining too! :D

I am slowly going through all the agents while keeping up with school and doing other stuff. Hoping to get quite some time in this weekend at least!

When mittens took over we were living on TCF's couch, had one system to call our own and had rights to rat in a single constellation for the whole alliance. We went to Curse to fight Atlas and Gentleman's Club and in the first week we fielded a 28-person fleet where about a third of the people in it were dutiful directors. Rebuilding was what he did.

everyone on the outside seems so concerned about goonswarm federation leadership, an alliance they are not in

if our current leadership is so bad and killing us, isn't that a good thing from the outside, won't it lead to our destruction and irrelevance faster and thus total eradication of all goon, the stated goal

i was winning eve back then, but it's surprising to know that goon was getting rolled over even worse in fountain war.
from what i can see there just isn't much THIS IS SPARTA kind of thing this time around, mittens and whoever is in charge is just going MEH, we will take the most effortless way out.

Not all are outsiders or always were. Some still care, some dont. For how things are now it looks like a great moment to return, and also killing co2 alone makes it worthwhile. Seems like none else intends to do that.

So I'm spitballing an idea here. Horde are starting to rat in their gains to raise ADM values. Who amongst you has a neutral alt with cyno 5 you wouldn't mind putting in horde. Who among you can fly a recon/blops/stratios/bomber?

Who thinks open recruitment is a recipe for dead ratters?

Who is interested?

this is really overcomplicated

you can achieve the same results by using a day 0 Not-Caldari pilot in a t1 tackle frigate with the default starter skills

At the risk of sounding ~concerned~, I I too look forward to large groups of pilots being in space, vulnerable to being shot for 10-15 minutes at a time.
