EN24 has hit a new low...they are letting Snot Shot write columns. quote:The most obvious core agenda RL money maker protected by the CFC coalition is the propaganda website created by The Mitanni of the GSF. The typical CFC pilot would take a bullet in RL to protect The Mittani and the money he makes from his website. The website is a powerful propaganda tool which nets him interviews, exposure in the gaming media, and shapes the identity of the CFC pilot as they drink the narrative from it like one would from a fire hose. What’s the narrative they follow? The narrative that protects the core agenda RL money maker is “it’s us against them”. Following this narrative in a video game is simple, easy for the line pilot to understand, and can be directed at a target with little effort. Would these CFC line pilots do the same for their CEO or Alliance? Probably not due to the fact that their in game identity is worth more as a CFC pilot (aka mistaken Goon) than it is as just a (insert name here) Alliance pilot.

The corp that he was using for his wormhole operations is just him and his alts. The Darwins Lemmings are made up of Marmite Collective alts, CFC spies (the main corp in the alliance accepts any application submitted), and maybe a couple 'grr goons' highsec pubbies who got taken in by his eve-o threads.

pugnax posted:Back when TEST was young and impressionable they learned the whole "lol get mad about words on the internet" schtick from goons TEST is a cargo cult. They jumped on all the lovely parts of "goon culture" but didn't balance it with a core group of people who hold the rest of the shitlords together and make it possible for them to just play spaceships without having to worry about things like stocking markets, logistics, SRP, diplomats, leading fleets, etc. There were people within TEST willing to do all those things but the general memberships treated them like crap until they were run out of the alliance. If TEST had fled to lowsec and actually worked on fixing those issues they might have made a successful comeback at some point but based on what's currently going on it looks like those problems have actually gotten worse and now people in charge are getting super defensive about getting called on it.

Daler Mehndi posted:I was looking at Evething, and one of my guys is about 50 days away from sitting in an Archon. However I noticed the plan doesn't include JDC V and JFC V. I have zero experience with capitals, but aren't those rather important to get? JDC V is great but the vast majority of capswarm ops are planned around people having JDC IV. JFC V probably isn't worth the month long training time unless you are going to use jump freighters a lot.

I'm getting flashbacks from when incursions were first released and TEST took over the CFC incursion group and started complaining about all the "Goon pubbies" who kept showing up in non-optimal ships.

Artificer posted:Don't the other skills also affect hull/weapon and support skills? Or are the benefits to perception and intelligence worth it for the penalties to all other skills? Skills get benefits from two different stats (a primary and a secondary). Most of the skills you will be training as a newbie are either perception/willpower or intelligence/memory so to cover yourself reasonably well you put your points in perception and int so you have a good score in the primary stat of those skills. e:fb (by microseconds)

The post got deleted and I got a temporary ban just for that. I've seen lots of people moderated in and out of game for really stupid minor jokey nazi stuff. I wouldn't expect them to put up with what /pol/ would bring to the table. The problem is that CCP takes instant action if you call somebody a Nazi but they don't do anything to the people who are actual Nazi sympathizers.
