Hi there, would you like to try some spicy products?
I calculated that I'm making 3.5 million isk per tick while afk-mining some form of plagioclase in 0.5 space. Am I doing this right? Is this the life?

Time is never wasted when you're wasted all the time.
So, I know I'll regret that, but I decided it's time to try getting into this game again.

I've read that there is a general goon channel, could someone pm me here or in game the channel name? (Bacon-Pigbottom ingame)

Since I'm away on holidays, and therefore playing on my crappy notebook for the next week, I'll hold on deciding which goon corp to go with until I'm back home and able to play proper. But I have to say, even though I'm not a fan of cults of personality and the name Imperium sounding to me pretty silly and self-important, when I see so many people jumping ship I feel kind of urged to go with goonswarm. My only gripe is that last time I was in goonfleet, I felt totally lost in the crowd and didn`t even last a week before just giving up.

I want to say you are doing it wrong but since I do not know what you are flying and how I can not say you are doing it well. Also you should get more miners.

It's still the biggest Goon group. I guess it depends on why you felt lost on a crowd. If it was because jabber channels scroll fast cause there's a poo poo ton of people talking, then you might still feel that way. There are smaller groups specifically to combat this problem, so if you never got into SIG's or squads your previous attempt, you can try that.

If you felt lost just because there was a poo poo ton of dudes, not much can be done to make that feeling any less. We are a big group and have lots of people in the coalition.

If small groups of goons is your fancy, check the groon thread.

As far as Darius JOHNSON'S group goes, I'll just say he posts much more on Reddit than SA while talking about how goony goony he is.

Check all the threads in PGS for more details.

There are so many fuckin swarm social channels to pick from. I mean, if you are a gay female gun shooting industrialist who likes reavers and chilling with directors that's like 7 channels.

Yep. Force community on folks. Bring back Greek squads imo to fill the void left by all the other dead squads.

When I was in waffe individual squads were pulling fleets of 100+ dudes sometimes. Still plenty possible to get lost in the crowd. Hell I was in Theta for a year and I can only name like three people that were in it.

we already won the culture war multiple times, but people not in gsf dont have to do poo poo and it's best to grab em as newbies and constantly feed new blood into said squads

butttttttttt you have to actually watch them so they dont go full epsilon and become somehow even more insular fyad

i mean smaller groups of like, 50-100 tops, make it so it's real easy to know everybody's name


hell if yo uwant to get SUPER FUCKIN AWFUL with it, make that poo poo squads within companies, x per squad, y squads per company'


also nothing preventing people from joining their friends or leaving the squad(s) if they're not a fit for those dudes but basically I'm advocating a buddy system here

No you big dumbo.

Having a group of people with random interests and random timezones is dumb. What does the rear end in a top hat timezone dude who likes small gang gate camping have anything in common with a pst dude who only main fleets?


Greek squads made sense back in the syndicate days because 90% of us couldn't fly anything bigger than an osprey and were in similar timezones. Most of us had no clue what our Eve interests were. Hell, you joined right around the start of that stuff.
