When are the regularly-scheduled socialist purity tests going to begin? I may need to study so I don't get purged.

Nope. I saw ~2 people duck out but there was no mass exodus or drama in general chat. Just a couple of sad goonfuckers.

A lot of people with really lovely beliefs mask that with a public position of centrism and a cry of please-no-politics. Part of the charm of even mild socialist branding is that it tends to make them expose themselves. No chill.

Anyone who can be chill and wants to blow up fascist spaceships with other goons is welcome. No pop quizzes on State and Revolution are actually going to happen.

Ask me about being a SJW in EE and working to make anyone who disagrees with me a villain and gets no opportunity to defend themselves at all because my army or sycophants I buy off with pixels follows me blindly.

I just want to kick anyone that gets super heated and pissed off about socialist branding. Like that shouldn't be a thing for leadership of Goons.

My entire goal is to piss off pubbies with us being a bunch of socialists. Its glorious drama.

Well, this is a fortunate win as I lost a coercer II while talking to Stormdog. (I don't need another one though, give it to someone new).

So as has doubtless trickled through by now I will not be handing over the Groon name.


What I am going to do is take Groon and gently caress off with it to be well, Groon. Anyone who I've flown with is welcome to message me and ask to come if you want, there will be 0 leadership and the only rule is effort is ban able. To this end I will be kicking everyone I don't immediately recognise, I am sorry you will get a 24 hour timer over this but you would get that anyway when you left, so might as well start the clock ticking asap.

Now there is a slight question of what to do with the 101 coercers siting in hangar 3. I'm assuming hangar 4 has already been emptied y you guys anyway. After putting in 10 seconds though to the matter I have decided to contract all of them to one name picked at complete random out of the corp list and let them decide, whoever they are.


To be clear I am not asking anyone to come,only offering, I have no ambitions to anything, do not come if you want to have sov or rule anything or do anything other than chase miners in low sec and die to gate guns.

Goons don't need to dominate the game straight away. Time for goons to go back to Syndicate, build up, learn the game, get some non-goonfuck leadership, then try and piss off the rest of the game when taking space. In EO goons took several iterations before things settled.

Yeah just tell me where to go to follow Kris and the jazz shark because from what I can see out of the last 8-9 ppl that are no longer with us *HONK!* nothing of value was lost. Looking forward to choot more space chips, glad I'm holding onto my own ore and PI until I can give it to kris directly

New Corp [HAUS] Grover Haus has been created for overflow. Check discord (in the op) for more info. We still control XBUX and will continue to make new corps as needed. It’s unfortunate that one person has decided to make life for the average goon difficult, but we now have leaders who have actually led goons in other games and are significantly less likely to break down in under a week.
