My favorite part of the Kevin Havens story is still his writing self-insertion fiction where one of the guys from Squeeze is running a mannequin dating service and hooks him up with a living mannequin. It's somewhere between wish fulfillment and fever dream.

FilthyImp posted:EveOnline GoonSquad (and really, a lot of the EVE drama and stuff) could be the material for a book, podcast, and graduate thesis. It's just so weird and sprawling. Goonswarm is featured in a Dark Horse comic series and has a major part in a Kickstarted Eve history book, which cracks me the gently caress up.

Goonswarm is, like, legit famous. There's been actual news articles from real sources talking about them.

One of the more famous mods was involved with them and ended up in the news. I can’t remember who though. His name sounded kind of like deadmau5? Meanrodent or something.

Yes, this means Benghazi is technically a goon saga and is why many of us are touchy about people using their deaths to score political points

The deep cut is vilerat had a long running thread about insane bullshit that posters' families forwarded to them, with lots of examples of his mom being buttfuck crazy They invited his mom to the Republican national convention to speak

Vilerat, OP of "post your crazy political email forwards," became subject of millions of crazy political email forwards. A suitably ironic in memoriam for a goon mod.

I'm sure there's a 6 paragraph explanation of it somewhere on the forum.

As 'shocking' as it turned out that the power hungry star wars obsessed mod was a pedophile, what turned the mods and admins against him 100% was that his "disclosure" to them about after caught out was a real scummy "im sorry people are upset about this" and he seemed to have little to no concern or remorse about his crimes.

If you go to Memory Alpha, the Star Trek wiki, a significant chunk of the images were uploaded by aatrek. He really likes Star Trek.

In the 3 1/2 years since police in Canada’s biggest city established a special unit to tackle child pornography, investigators have been through so many dwellings packed with sci-fi books, DVDs, toys and collectibles like Klingon swords and sashes that it’s become a dark squadroom joke. “We always say there are two types of pedophiles: Star Trek and Star Wars” says Det. Ian Lamond, the unit’s second-incommand. “But it’s mostly Star Trek.”
