I mean, it’s one thing to say “I didn’t know” and then demand change and quite another to knowingly defend an organization that refuses to cut ties, socially or financially, with the people directly responsible for [INSERT GOLDMINED THREAD]. Sorry if that cognitive dissonance is uncomfortable for any of you. Maybe if you don’t want to be associated with a group that is being styled as the Groomswarm thanks to the leadership you should just quit the org or at least oust the leadership.

In some ways you can look at GSF as a direct correlation to the USA. You're going to have some people who either support and defend the leadership no matter what happens. Or those who will decry and try and expose the malfeasance and corruption at the top. But there is a third group of people who are just apathetic. Those folks will just go about their Eve career not interested in politics as long as they can mindlessly rat, mine, or press F1 on fleets. And the third group are the majority of the organization. So long as they get what they want it doesn't matter how lovely the leadership is at the top.

Can everyone stop comparing video game club to ~The US Government~, ~Amazon, Inc~, and/or ~The Catholic Church~ as justifications for posters itt covering for said video game club's actual, real world harm and malfeasance? It really is just a video game club and everyone's lives will be fine (better) if they just drop corp since the org and its leadership do not seem to want to change or even acknowledge wrongdoing.

This is essentially what happened when Darius JOHNSON came back to EVE and formed Ten Dollar Bond. There were enough posters from this forum split between groups to warrant a thread for each, which is fairly similar to this whole ordeal, because people couldn't stop slap fighting over anything for a long period of time.

How about we stop posting about shitposting and post about this stupid loving game? Btw if you're fresh to wormhole space, the PI there is the best in the game, and with 16-20 planets you can make billions per month making P4's, if whatever hole you settled in has the proper spread of planets. If not, you can still likely get a good p3 setup rollin, but you'll also get an RSI from all the clicking... Bring yer icepacks. Check out https://hanns.io/pi to get a feeling for what you can make in your system

Had a really great fleet a few nights back with asher fcing. I was flying scim in another cerb fleet. We’re fighting outnumbered ~3:2 against PL, NC., Horde, FI.RE. over another iHub. Just an incredible rush from being able to force them off-grid while (nearly) burning out our MWDs. It gets really hard to hold reps. I survived getting primaried but only because they hosed up and whipped their fleet around wrong or something and got out of range while shooting me. They leave grid a second time for whatever reason and we go home. I love flying my spaceships around.

Hey genius, just because thousands of people are happy to ignore problems doesn't make their community magically good. The reason people are not satisfied that GSF is salvageable isn't because of 'playing the game less', it's because the policies of the last month do not instil faith that the organisation will be a good place to be in the future. If it takes the likes of Delta Squad losing their poo poo publicly for anything to be done about The Mittani, what will it take for something to be done next time? Will the people who speak up then also get banned? Will people avoid speaking up at all because hey, I don't want to get airlocked, better to just keep my head down and let the <insert bigot of choice here> do the boring space job while I avoid them? Actions speak louder than words, and the actions taken so far all point to 'we would prefer whistleblowers just be quiet thanks'. There sure are a lot of words about how the actions definitely don't mean that though!

I'm sorry you feel so threatened by a group of people who are going to ride bikes around in EVE. You should maybe think about what that means? One of our rules is literally "no sov." We aren't a threat to anything pubbieswarm wants to do in the game. In fact, we explicitly reject that goal as a valid path for our corp to take. That he's having a freakout over us deciding to play an entirely different part of the game suggests some deep seated control issues tbh. hailthefish posted:globby kumitomo here to tell the people having fun that their metrics aren't good enough LMAO

However, I don't get the kick/ban thing. I don't see that happening. For all his faults, the guy has been the leader for a long time and put a lot of energy into trying to maintain the empire. He then initiated a peaceful transfer of power on his way out and I assume has a decent amount of people who still think well of him. Vengefully kicking isn't the right thing to do imo. Not only would it rub a lot of people the wrong way, but you risk him getting motivated and starting his own thing which could fracture the Imperium. Let him drift away in inactivity and let Asher start making Goons 3.0.
