Terrible in the sense that he calls people a J4G despite actually just being some guy from the penny arcade forums, good for goonfleet in the sense that long after all other FCs burn out, he will still be out losing interceptor fleets to TEST.

How do you avoid getting ganked or hotdropped? I wouldn't trust myself to do it unless I knew that.

Also the last time I researched constellations for this, basically Hysera was the only lowsec system that had all highsec neighbor systems and would allow for a 1-carrier setup. There was also a gallente system that had 3 lowsec with the rest highsec in its constellation. Everything else was like 5+ lowsec systems, which means you'd want a carrier in each of those 5+ systems so that you don't have to cyno or go gate-to-gate. What other constellations/factions are out there, or is that it?

There's more to it, like constellation geography and other things. Out of like ~200 missions I've run, only a dozen times has anyone tried to probe me down, and this is on a neutral alt with no affiliations to anyone. All you do is warp in, MWD align out, and do the mission and if you see probes cut your losses and dock up for an hour or something.

so basically, what happened was we were playing Archeage

we had a special person by the name of BobFromMarketing


You know who this is I'm sure. Well, some of the leaders wanted to shield him and make excuses for him (and even try to sneak him back in to the guild). That caused the AA guild leader to step down from all the drama. He put one of his friends in power, who almost immediately stopped playing due to family issues. At this point, we had no guild leader since the person who was the actual guild leader stopped playing. This left the officers, of which Kimsemus, Gicer, DBRB, and multiple other people were a part of. Some officers (like DBRB) wanted to ally everyone in the ocean that was fishing in a 'fishing pact.' Other officers wanted to pirate people, since the ocean is an open PvP zone.

Since there was no guild leader to make a decision, it was just a bunch of people screaming at each other about what we were actually doing. Kimsemus continued pirating people on the ocean, pissing off the fishing pact folks, who then got him blacklisted.

Kim ran pvp fleets to kill fishers and take their stuff because that's what goons wanted to do, DBRB and Gicer had set up these vast fishing alliances to guarantee safe fishing for goons and then cried because these goons were out killing people. They said it was for the betterment of all goons in AA, and it was right up to the point when they had a fit and left and took a bunch of the resources that would have been used to build a goon castle.

basically DBRB complained that pvp happened in a pvp game and then kicked kimsemus out of evegoons for it

It wasn't. Gicer was trying to erect DBRB as a sock puppet officer in a guild of 2000 people who didn't ever play EVE because they wanted to run AA like an alliance in EVE. They made pacts with pretty much everyone on the ocean fishing that they wouldn't be attacked so goon boats wouldn't be attacked. The problem is that this is the main PVP activity in the main PVP area in the game and they did so without a thought for the hundreds of people that were PVPing nightly before they got there. They had some rule about not pirating where goons were fishing which we respected, but when we began pirating people they blamed all goons, which you know, is normal, because open world PVP in an open world PVP game.

Anyway, Gicer and DBRB got super, super loving mad and sperged.





When they realized that most goons didn't give a poo poo who was a director in EVE or not, they quit, we kept pirating, and I was blacklisted in EVE and kicked from goonwaffe to settle a personal vendetta.

Yeah, there was also the BFM drama as well. But since he got permabanned as a result, I am glad of it.

I would love to get un-blacklisted. I enjoy living in lowsec though, and Shadow Cartel are good people. But I sort of miss the goon culture in EVE when a lot of stuff wasn't taken so seriously.

I keep seeing that in this thread, but I'm wondering what that actually means

The group I'm in, Pandemic Legion, aren't really big into holding space. For around a year or two we ran one of the most lucrative rental empires (pubbies paid us in-game money to use systems and be protected by us) but prior to that we were a roaming group that took mercenary contracts and just looked for people to dunk on. The two groups affiliated with PL are Pandemic Horde (new player focused group) who have systems in Nullsec but on the other side of the map from the fighting and Waffles, who also don't take sov because they too dislike it and prefer to roam around and shoot nerds indiscriminately.

The others are pretty much a rag tag crew of former or current sov holders who, while having space of their own to some degree or the other, are fairly weaker than the CFC is. Especially if they're not all teaming up against the CFC. It's also a lot of systems that are being fought over, I think there's at least over 100, and so not everyone is going to be able to hold onto all of them etc. At least that's the theory.


Eonwe posted:

I, like Kimsemus, am blacklisted from Goons. At least I think I still am.

Mittani gave me an amnesty offer a while back but I politely declined it. That and I sort of help run Pandemic Horde and would feel bad bailing on them since I put a lot of ~effort~ into some of the stuff that has gone on over the past year.
