You were the combative ones. I ended up following the instructions and authing properly anyways but after several of you started getting accusatory, nothing was good enough. Dissecting my post history to see if i was an Authentic® Certified© Goon™, accusing me of stealing SA accounts, interrogating me as to who I knew and when, and other crazy poo poo.

I guess it's a pretty horrible offense if nostalgia brought you back, which used to be acceptable but apparently is now a fatal cultural impurity hurf blurf. I was the spymaster in our Second Galaxy corp while we were waiting for Echoes to come out. I pulled off the first cap ship theft in that game with my alt ProfessorStupid while also making that game horribly unplayable for pubbies at the start of this year. Blake was asking me for spy help in DMs hours before he joined in the dogpile and I'm not even sure if he realized he was both attacking and asking for help from the same person, which is a great start for any fledgling intelligence agency!

I'm not mad so much as I am weirded out by the suddenness and the level of hostility last night. It looks like I'm explicitly banned from the discord now and can't rejoin, so if any goons in other alliances reading this need a spymaster I'm a free agent now.

And Darius JOHNSON was a better CEO than The Mittani ever was or will be. We should have kept our "no mittanis allowed" policy instead of seeking his blessing for this corp.

Yeah, I spent the past couple weeks figuring out NPC missions and last night I posted a guide that you can basically use to run T10 missions with 2 or 3 regular cruisers, right before I got banned I was going to do it with BlunderBuss.

You messaged me. I told you to get a vouch. Seems like there's a few people who might have been willing. You'd probably be in the alliance right now if they'd just vouched for you.

Instead you started going off about "its been more than a decade do you think we all still have our SA accounts," bragging about something you did in some other lovely game, and telling us someone we banned two weeks ago is the reason you found our discord in the first place.

edit: "i don't actually remember any of you guys from the beta or SG days" LOL no poo poo dude why are you here

None of this was a problem for any of the many iterations of these drama filled corps until you or whoever took over and suddenly it is. Anyways, I would be in the alliance right now also if you accepted the regular SA auth that I did with the bot, but I clearly did not pass the additional goon culture purity tests. Looks like you kicked one of the previous CEOs last night too, and you probably didn't even know who he was either.

We knew who the other CEO was, but they weren't a poster either, so they didn't get to stay. No one cares what you did in second galaxies of all games, what the gently caress.

It's because we spend a lot of ingame resources on providing free things to people, and giving them to people who don't play with us and don't hang out with us is expensive. I need those minerals saved so that when I welp my maller by falling asleep during a story mission, the corp can give me another one for free :colbert:.

No one cares about Second Galaxy and no one cares about the CEOs in that game. Maybe if you're big in the Second Galaxy community and that's important to you, you should go play with people who care about that.

I have vouches and SA auth, and honestly I always wanted to avoid disclosing my SA account to avoid people digging through my old post history and probable doxing, which is apparently what youall started checking out immediately. I'm going to find a goon corp that hasn't been taken over by new admins that get weirdly aggro for no reason and try to start drama out of the blue. I reconnected with Blunder as well and we're going to run missions anyways. Thanks!

I’m p sure the mission running channel is not opsec and is meant to be shared with friendlies (and SonBanana’s EO Goonswarm Guild members are blue to us), so you can definitely keep running missions with people if you don’t show your rear end so much that you get yourself banned or whatever.

There was a point in the past iterations of drama over the past couple months where one of the previous goon admins actually sought mittens' blessing to operate an "official" EE goon corp, before that previous admin imploded in drama. It's hard to keep up because one admin after another here keeps imploding in a storm of drama. There's a locked EE thread here where it all happened. Mittani actually showed up in that thread and told him to gently caress off and it was all rather amusing.

Anyways my comment was more a response to the litany of things the current admin was saying to me in the Discord, which doesn't matter really.
