the new article by submission on tmc is pretty good, although it has an element of ranting in it, and not being critical enough, but it's a good start. i think this is what differs goon to pubbie alliances such as bob, neckbeards in goons actually have no life and care about a community, other than just stay on board while it's fun, then abandon for another when poo poo hits the fan holy poo poo it rhymes! I'm beginning to feel like a Rap God, Rap God

Comstar posted:So The Mittani was going to reward Kismateer (sorry spelling) the job of running https://www.reddit.com/r/eveonlinenews/ Why would ANYONE want that job right now? Think he dodged a bullet there. No one wants it, because no one reads it, because that subreddit has no reason to exist. The irony of having a subreddit to control your narrative while decrying reddit and r/eve as a whole and the people who go there is just...overwhelming.

Goons just happen to be my favorite community where most of my friends play.  quote:Actually, the jew and sexism part is really easy. Imagine you have a best friend in real life and you know each other's humor very well. When you tell him a dirty joke about a jew having a big nose because air is free, both of you know how you meant it and neither of you will yell at each other for being a racist. That’s similar for Goons, only on a larger level: A group of neckbearded fat players make jokes about women and their kitchens and they all laugh dirty while secretly wishing they knew how a woman looks in real life.  I too condone casual racism for the sake of humor while decrying actual racists as evil because they're n00bs who just don't get it.

Huge_Midget posted:But how does it accomplish that? They are just going to spam it into oblivion, and even if you manage to ban most of the spammers, then what? It's not like CCP will legitimize it with their presence since they've already made r/eve the new official forums since the actual Eve forums were killed by the ISD. r/eve is controlled by literal Nazis and people that hate us, so good luck ever getting our subreddit linked on the sidebar or any mentions of it shadowbanned or downvoted into oblivion. It just seems like a really hamfisted move to address a problem that could be approached differently. Like why CCP chose to use a 3rd party forum for user interaction when said forum is ran by literal Nazis. how much effort, exactly, do you think it is to grab a subreddit that could be useful in the future like walk me through what exactly you're hyperventilating about if it's never useful it cost approximately thirty seconds of time

However, large sections of players reacted angrily to Gianturco seeking to profit from events in the “Eve Online” universe, and the fundraising effort failed. quote:As for Gianturco, he says it’s not about power or money, but all about friends. “I play ‘Eve’ because of my friends and the challenge, and it’s really all about our guys and our friends in the wider Imperium community than anything about the game itself.” I'm positive he told them to print all of that.

Orange Red Bull posted:Its more anti-circle jerk and the corrupt cfc-hating mods on /r/eve my general theory is that reddit is great when there's fairly objective or widely shared opinions on what is good (technical stuff, games where there's not warring camps, etc) and utter garbage when there's strong ideological differences (politics, console warrioring, eve online) that said, there are not a lot of good ways on the internet to deal with strong ideological difference stuff - strong from-the-top moderation is the best available but it suffers from everyone viewing moderators as biased (tests show if you write a neutral article and show it to partisans of both sides they both think it's biased towards the other side) and self-selection into forums of comparable ideology (which is actually what you start seeing in irl american media)
