It's pretty awesome watching the river of salt flowing in the comments on every article on TMC complaining that the website isn't parroting all the hot /r/eve talking points. In other news I'm a little tempted to fly a bomber to Saranen, it sounds like the place is pretty much nonstop thunderdome.

Speaking of alliance tickers, where does CONDI come from?

So I switched from 5x heavy drones to 2x gecko and 1x heavy. There is a 100 dps gain on paper, but I am not seeing a difference in ticks. Is there a reason for this? (Am I missing a downside for the Gecko?) I'm currently running 4x DDA2 and 1x OTE2 for low slot. Would 3x DDA2 and 2x OTE2 see better results? tia guys.

Condi is the name of a goonfleet.com emote of two hands flipping people off, the alliance was named after the emote, I assume the emote was named after the guy jm20 is talking about.

Quite simply, I read your new rules as "talk about the war, let off some steam, but don't resort to personal attacks, dogpiling, and namecalling under any circumstance." Seems pretty straightforward to me? "We dunked PL supers in Saranen! Haha get owned scrubs!" -this is OK.

Eh, not really. Most of the time it's dudes camping the undock killing empty pods or playing docking gently caress gently caress games. Then when one of our fleets goes out the campers gently caress off to the citadel. Sometimes there are actual fights. Not as frequently as you might think.

back when I was a far worse poster I would always get up in arms about Epsilon's thread making GBS threads and their "harming of morale!!!" but now I really miss them and the more active forum we had back then in general.

You're not getting better ticks because the geckos do omni damage, split evenly between the 4 types. Because rats have different resist profiles, the 5 heavies will do the same or better than 2 geckos and a heavy because despite the higher paper dps, the dps after resistances is lower. Use heavies that match the damage profile of the rats you're shooting.

Dragonstalking likes to confuse annoying with trolling Xolve is pretty chill to be fair. The talk of squads is interesting, only because I don't entirely recall which one I ended up in, I think it was rho. Edit: and probably the biggest social forum I got involved in (and one I'd dearly love to see come back if possible) is the ICCFC competitions - it's also been a huge influence on where I'm intending to take my life (and putting a lot of effort into), for reasons.

I'll be honest, I have mixed feelings on automatic squad assignment. Pros: It forces you to interact with Goons you don't already know, and make the best of a bunch of mostly-well-meaning randos. There were probably a few newbees in the post-squad era who fell through the cracks because they never joined a sig/squad and felt isolated. Cons: The quality of your first few days in GSF depended a lot on which squad you got into. If you got assigned to Theta or Rho, you got showered with isk and advice. If you got assigned to Delta, you got showered with piss and drama.

Or you could be poor claire syerick and end up as the pi squad mascot and martyr. edit: Squads are necessary for social development in an organization of GSF's size. Like clubs, Greek organizations, or professional organizations at a university, they're somewhat necessary to help people from being lost in the crowd.
