goosefleet was a retirement home that was just going to do dumb poo poo until we got bored so we didn't ask a lot of questions about what people were doing ingame. as long as it wasn't, y'know, harboring a pedophile or being a sex pest or generally otherwise being a lovely person, go nuts.

holding sov at all was and is imo a successful effort to stop relying on donations from rich old money goons to run the alliance. you know who funded us the most? solo loving drakban. not elusif.

and then we suddenly got successful by accident, but having not looked gift horses in the mouth before...we kept not asking.

so when things came to a head and i was getting emails from loving reddit about people tagging my username on a subreddit i'm banned from because u/avree thinks i'm "deranged" for wishing minor inconveniences on another subreddit mod, it became very clear: EVE sucks and continuing to play it in the face of all this poo poo was just going to deal endless SAN damage to me.

it was also clear that doing so would damage the ability of other people still within gooseflock to play the game on their terms, and that i'd find myself unwelcome anywhere else because everyone's now heard the narrative that i accepted RMT and helped launder it...gently caress it. if i can't play with my friends, i just won't play at all.

whatever. for those of you on reddit lurking this thread, no i'm not still playing on an alt. why the gently caress would i want to?

can I have your stuff?

Most of the /r/eve mod team is a circlejerk of mods from r/Conservative, r/Republican, r/ConservativeMemes.

i'm too stupid to understand EVE well enough to even remotely understand what happened but after squinting really hard at reddit and discord and this thread i have decided: it doesn't matter and i don't care

i will continue to hönk

Elusif did bot stuff and got kicked out of goosefeet. Then reddit makes it seem like geese were always in on it. Thats basically the source of the drama. Not entirely sure what happening currently, some people are quitting eve, some people are being annoying. Also a new thread got made too and it has already reached 4 pages full of toxic waste.

Idk if this has much to do with the reddit mods this time, just pubbies being dumb.

I dont play eve anymore let alone as a member of goosefleet, but it kinda seems like internally its not a big deal, just people overreacting and rubbing salt in old wounds.

my favourite was the guy who 100% believed that all of the <GEESE> wallet is RMTed because he genuinely had no clue how an alliance with 500+ members and a dozen corps, with sov in three regions and multiple wormholes could make 300 billion in profit in a year. all because we had enough money in the coffers that we could just redistribute equal shares to anyone who logged in for our birthday celebration lmao

current geese status: the leadership triumvirate has stepped down and/or biomassed, interim leadership is planning how we want to handle things going forward. a four person membercorp quit (which is lovely but they were also like 50% of our alliance's SRP costs so lol). one of our blued alliances moved back to the poo poo end of space (omist) after failing to casually widot us during the first 24 hours of the crisis. a couple people left the goosefleet corp to go do other stuff but we've also recently had some people un-vacation so it's kind of a wash there. our interim CEO is literally on vacation irl right now so he's in the loop but we won't be having our big drat director meeting until sunday.

reddit targeted a few high profile people in goosefleet when elusif did some botting. siobhan biomassed, corgs quit, d'ceet dropped out of the CSM race. poo poo's dying down and geese are restructuring but out of personal safety the above happened.

You can read it all in these threads or elsewhere but basically sweaty eve gamers have decided that they are the RMT queen of all botters or something and theres a very credible worry they wont stop at lovely reddit threads so Sio cut the game out of their life with a machette.
