I played this game in the goon group like two years before that (and then sorta drifted away) what happened

edit: account is a rereg, duh

Edit: what the gently caress is "tonking"?

Additional edit: in-game applying to GOONS made the 6-7 robo-invitations to various alliances become instantly unreadable. How long would I have to play to make "rabonnobar"'s life miserable? He was definitely the smarmiest of the bunch.

bonus edit apparently that was a bug I can read them now however gently caress rabonnobar

The first goon group here disbanded because of bad leadership deciding to sink the boat instead of dealing with the poo poo they got themselves into.

I have no idea.

What did rabannobar say?

Newbies that join up now get a shot at destroying a really terrible alliance led by a real life, honest to god white drug dealer. Free money and plenty of tears:

If you goons decide to keep raiding me, so be it but it will be without cause and I am essentially unarmed. Contined war will only make rebuilding more difficult, it will not stop me. I will not beg for mercy; I will simply ask you nicely to let me be.

Kevin is absolute poo poo at marketing.

I'll have to see what I still have saved, but more or less Moo-Cows was in a motorcycle accident with a truck during the mid 1980s, in the early 90s he changed his name to "sarah" if I remember correctly, in the late 90s and early 2000s he headed a student organization at a local college and began embezzling money. After he was caught he was given probation and barred from joining anymore student organizations. He joined another and began during the same thing sometime around 04/05, and joined CN in 06.

Once he was emperor of NPO, he would hold donation drives for hosting/domain costs and take the majority of the funds for himself, sometime in 09 or '10 he decided to tell his motorcycle accident story to NPO and used it to launch and even bigger donation drive, taking all of that money.

Yes, he also used a cropped picture from a gay porn as "him" and had a folder full of cropped pictures of the same actor to keep up the illusion. In late 2011 he went to the dentist and ended up dead, some of the crazier CN players who knew suspected foul play, but I think it ended up just being from an air bubble from the dental tools causing a blockage.

NPO found all of this out and decided to keep it hush hush for as long as possible to "save the memory" of moo cows or whatever, then preceded to tell everyone the motorcycle story that he told them. With certain members pretending to be moo cows. Finally in July of 2012 they said he passed away due to complications of his accident.

He also routinely told people he had cancer in order to get donations, as I remember him telling me multiple times back in like '07 that he "had a rare cancer and was struggling to pay bills (" or whatever.

ahaha just randomly clicked on this thread after not playing for a couple years, did not know any of this. Wow!

'Tonking' is a threat issued by the management of the CN goon forums that I guess we both are baffled by.

I was drinking when I read it and have since deleted the message. To quote you: I have no idea.

Meanwhile my recruitment thread has zero replies while more recent threads have more than that. I continue to refuse to write the words CYBER NATIONS on my buttocks with a sharpie and post it without being paid at least 50 bux in actual Vietnamese Dongs.

Ask for money (you'll get it) and go to our war guide and drink it in. You'll be smashing nerds in no time. If you want help faster than the time it takes you to read a guide, hop on IRC and ask people there. I'll be in our SynIRC channels this evening (5ish pm-8 pm EST) so I can help you then if nobody else gets to you first.

Also, to the rest of you newbies, don't be afraid to ask what you think will be a dumb question in your training thread or here in this thread. We're here to help.

The Jennifer Government game evolved into this.

CN is actually a bad choice just to kill time; it takes 30 seconds a day on the average, plus 5 minutes once every 20 days. Even if you're at war it takes 15 minutes a day tops.

(play it anyway)

Where are the tests?

Also, we just redid our ASN system to take into consideration the new balance of tech buyers vs. sellers. Currently it's a good time to get in, because there's a huge abundance of tech buyers, which means that new nations will get utterly buried in money and free soldiers. You want this, because it makes it very easy to raid pubbies and get even more resources and tears from them.
