Ragnar Gunvald posted:Bit random, but last night I was wondering if it's time to rebrand from the Imperium too, now Mittens is gone there's no need for a media friendly pubbie name. Can we go back to being the CFC please? Fun fact, Asher proposed renaming from the Imperium when he took the reins, and the pubbie masses responded: NO.

This is a cursed place and the thread will continue to enjoy writhing around in the mud into the foreseeable future, as it has for years.

It's not a democracy. Nobody should give a drat what the Karmafleet pubbies think about changing the name and just do it. They're not going to leave over the name change anyway. The only thing they'll do is post badly, more often, about how Delta killed their dumb personality cult.

Karmafleet is a fascinating case study in “our org was started for body count and we have failed entirely to parley that into anything”.

I don't remember if it used to be different. I think it used to be a little better. It was never better. I've been lurking Eve threads on SA since like 2006-2007, and the amount of catfighting and negative-ness never seemed to be "in good fun," or "inside jokes." It's because of these threads that I never even downloaded the game to try it out, because even the folks at "the top levels" of the game posted about how much they hated Goons and playing games with Goons. I always figured comms would be horrible, and that's not even taking into account gamer words and opinions. A good posting buddy finally convinced me in 2022 to at least try it out for a month, and paid my first Omega after I learned basics of ship movement and piloting in the New Player Experience for about a month. This was right as the sub price went up and Mittani stepped down, so lots of changes were in the air. But all the negative posting, personal sniping, backstabbing, and general bad vibes from the SA Eve thread(s) were just...not there. All the Goons I played with and went on fleets with were genuinely helpful and tolerated my endless questions with good-natured humor and awareness. I never made more money on a single day in Eve than on my second fleet when I tackled the FC one jump out from 1DQ on the way home (I'd locked him so I didn't get too far away for fleet warps while traveling, and a neut came through a gate we were sitting at...I immediately scrammed, then webbed...only to figure out a minute later that the only one I had targeted was still Zintage). Everyone has been really open and nice, from mining to 10% TiDi structure bashes. I haven't been able to play as much as a I like recently, but folks on Discord and Jabber are still a lot of fun to chat with every day. Sorry for Posting About Posting. <<<===D-Name supremacy Fake Edit: Jackdaws are awesome, and I feel like an X-Wing pilot whenever I come out of warp

It's almost like when you advertise your game to the socially maladjusted your player base will be full of socially maladjusted people nursing 500 year long grudges over posting. It's also why we keep coming back cause man it's fun to watch.

I learned today that if you're playing eve on the lowest graphical settings, Upwell structure interiors look cell shaded. It made me think about happy memories of better games that were also cell shaded.

They're happy to adopt the name "goon" without understanding it and, they're clearly Institutionalised to Mittens at this point. Being dragged back into the real world may not be such a bad thing for them, even if they are screaming and kicking at the time..

It sets a price floor for characters, whatever value you can suck out their head in extractors Also you no longer need to buy xxxWeedBonerLordxxx with a corp mebershop in EveSexGods and have that as your character if you want a cap pilot quick as you can just buy the brain juice
