I don't even remember. That'd have been 12 years ago at this point. I think it was just general payment for working on the site for years without pay and not for anything interesting.

so what do you actually "do" if you're a single account pilot living in a wormhole? i've dabbled in exploration before and i've heard of people that multibox dreads in some kind of combat sites in WHs, but how do you make isk to support your pvp habits?

ps you all should make an old geezers retirement home thread so you can talk about that one time you were space important or share stories about the awful things goons did

We didn't act like sociopaths in Echoes, to the point that part of the reason Gooseflock got founded was because people didn't like how the original Echoes Goonswarm CEO did things. True though, we might have avoided it due to past experience teaching the founders how high-pressure MMO guilds suck insane amounts of poo poo.

What the hell is goose flock

Are you talking about goonswarm because my 2006-2014 was spent either behaving like a sociopath, encouraging others to behave like a sociopath, or watching people behave like a sociopath, and that’s just the poo poo I know about not being a member of leadership.

I’m sure not everyone’s gameplay experience was the same but organizationally goonswarm was built on kicking over sandcastles and making friends with people before rugpulling them.

Eve Echoes is a mobile game, but it's a whole separate game from Eve Online. It came out in 2020 and the first two weeks after launch had a speedrun of a full Goonswarm rise-and-collapse before Goosefleet rose from the ashes.

you just use that one account for pve.
Ideally you have stations to swap clones around, but your milage may vary.

eve really is the kind of game where multiple accounts is heavily encouraged but not required if you don't give a poo poo about min-maxing.

Huff gas, or find a couple other similar minded goons that don't want to multibox and go farm as friends. Split the loot and make money to lose together.
Also, if someone rolls into you while ratting, you can all warp off except the dude being scrammed by rats so enjoy the gamble of "who's turn is it to die today"

--edit
Wormholes pay out a poo poo tonne better than null, but require a little more effort. So more people splitting the reward isn't as bad as it sounds

So really what PCU over 30 days is going to be the mark where they start cutting staff and finish the death spiral before it ends up on lifesupport?

I saw they just recently increase omega prices recently so it probably is in the warning zone.

Huff Gas, do Exploration sites, you can run C3 wormhole anoms solo in a couple different hulls like the Praxis, I want to say Vagabond and Loki and I'm sure a bunch of other ones too. Use wormhole connections with a slippery 100mn stabber to steal ESS's. And do Wormhole PI, it's the best PI in game

Plus, he'd left the gate open and there was evil everywhere.

I was working on it, but then Locke Erasmus had to go and edit in zxmagus's timeline on his venerable PvE ratting thread on his way out the door.

Now illum is looking for delta sleeper agents and my effort to try to get some bullshit bans (deadtear, a couple people that posted only in helldump) is ruined by nerds who have to poo poo on the carpet on their way out the door.

So at this point all I'm going to do is if a specific person wants to appeal their ban, just message me on discord, and I'll get you in contact with theadj or klavas and we can work the appeal. Otherwise I'm not wasting more effort on people bent on self-sabotage.
