I guess technically since it's an inactivity purge, it's just to get rid of people who aren't doing anything at all in the game.

If you got a pap, then you're doing stuff I guess. As opposed to like, metrics and thresholds and poo poo.

you don't have to get paps

however if you get paps you aren't tagged as 'inactive' ie not playing the game at all

You can login to jabber and talk about anime for once every 60 days and be fine. Actually, only 1 of the 4 options require you to login to eve at all. Its like the easiest requirements ever created.

The 4Q 2021 Goonwaffe purge has been completed. I figured anyone interested in playing would have came back for the storage wars pinata last weekend so this was a good weekend to purge.

I'll be interested in seeing in seeing the drop on dotlan tomorrow. The number of goons who laid down their rifles in the weeks after August 6 was pretty high.

As a reminder, the criteria for goonwaffe are ANY ONE OF THE FOLLOWING:

1. A post in the past 60 days
2. Connection to jabber in the past 60 days
3. Connection to mumble in the past 60 days
4. A pap in the past 90 days.

So ended up dropping about 300 characters. I won't know how many accounts that is until I do participation stats at the end of the month.

The overwhelming number of people immediately stopped logging in after August 6 (when the war ended). So a four week span between Aug 7 and Sep 7, people just completely put eve down.

It was like some kind of WWII, war is over, lay down the rifle, and back to civilian life type stuff. There were very few people that went inactive before August 6, and while there was a bit of a longer tail after Sep 7, no like big spike where I could say a significant number of people got pissed off at some CCP bullshit and just quit.

I'm one of those who put the game down literally after the t5z keepstar blew up. I can't speak for others, but I can definitely say gently caress :ccp: and I only logged back in for the war. I doubt I'll subscribe again unless the Imperium ever sounds the horn of Goondor again. At this point :ccp: has hosed the game too much for my taste and I have absolutely no doubt that if they ever create a patch that fixes EVE, it will be entirely accidental on their part.

August 31, 2021 is the last time you connected to jabber.

You last browsed the forums on January 24... but your last post was January 21, 2021. Shameful goon, failed at Just Post. Like a true goon though, "Last Seen in Eve:" was "Never"

Then something is hosed up somewhere with your system, because I know for a fact I connected to Jabber at some point more recently than that (not even accounting for 'today' so if your system isn't showing that then you really do have an issue) and I have also logged into Eve rather more recently than 'never'.

Well, here's an easy way to test the Jabber thing. Andromache: I reboot my computer several times a week. My Jabber automatically runs and connects on every startup. I use the same name here, on the goonfleet forums, and in-game. Do you show me as active based on Jabber activity?

Before I start a purge, I check my stats on Manager and make sure they are up to date. If they aren't then I yell at someone (usually boris).



Your last in Eve date probably shows as "never" because that comes from ESI which you probably need to redo due to CCP fuckery a few weeks ago, which, had you been connected to jabber, you would be aware about.

This really isn't anything to get upset about as it's literally as easy as wait 7 days and reapply. Do better next time. I do these literally every quarter. There's always some joker that gets all Rutibex over it.

Playing Eve is a Poor Life Choice in its own right. Once you’ve decided to do that, which flavor of Goon you play it with is just icing on the mistake cake.

I'm keeping my client patched

I tried to make PI work. Eh, maybe I'd do it if I was on death row and the library ran out of new material. I've converted ships and isk to Plex and I'll jump in next time there's a war.

Hello thread, long time no speak.

I see things have gotten a bit interesting while you guys are getting ready to Next Test.

A couple of questions:

How many of the "neutral states" are Goon friendly? I remember Dracarys being good guys but I don't know the rest.

Is that Brave all the way up there? I thought they were constantly getting dunked on by Frat, so how comes they are sitting right next too them?
