C:\ is pretty much just Windows10 (and a lovely 220gb Corsair SSD I don't recommend to anyone), as the title would imply. Gaming is a Samsung 850EVO 550gb SSD. It has whatever I play the most on it (read: not EVE). Not Porn (Another 550g SSD), is sadly, not a cache of my favorite intimate moments with your mother, and is mostly steam games, a few movies, and... intimate moments with your father.

Hobold posted:drat, I gotta say its awesome to wake up and hear I've been accused of goonfucking. Spent an entire day on fleets, and last one out reshipped to shields, so I had to grab a basi off contract. gently caress me for grabbing one put up by Fweddit's own Casmeron Khurelem. They put Small shield extenders on instead of larges. I didn't see it, was in a hurry and loving tired. So when I relisted after the fleet, someone apparently pitched a hissy fit about it in Saranen local. God drat its good to be a goon I guess. You should probably never buy anything from J4LP, ever. It will more than likely be fitted wrong. It's kind of their thing. crew posted:You can handwave it away all you want. People create coalitions for safety and prosperity, you- PL and NCdot are 110% the same as the Imperium in all that you do, just the mechanics and language are switched up so you can 'farm content' and feel better about the arrangements. Because PL ever lived or did anything in the Drone regions (except a few people who got kicked for inactivity because Ratting > Murdering Nerds)? The last thing anyone in PL wants is to build an Ivory tower somewhere, then re-branding their image and ratting until the servers go offline- that's a behavior exclusive to the CFC/Imperium.

It seems like what CO2 did was kind of lovely, but at the same time, Goons thrive on persecution. The best way to defeat the swarm would be to just ignore it. I dunno how many vets have ret vetted as a result of this attack, but I'd be suprised if its less than 100 goons returning to the fold. Pretty disappointing if Goons fail to pull more vets back than PL.

I understand that it must scare you to venture too deeply into the depths that the evil goons hail from, but - and I understand that this must come as a shock - not everyone on SA is in Goonwaffe. There are a whole bunch of chill posters on these here forums that dislike eve goons, like Xolve, or Uba or Salastil and whatnot, I'm sure they can confirm to you that it's perfectly fine to read and post on other subforums. I don't "dislike" EVE Goons per se- I just have a differing view than most of them (I've been on both sides of the fence), hearing your average Waffe or ~valued ally~ talk about PL was pretty hilarious before I got shitpurged out of there though. I laughed at the nerds who got dunked in Daras, just like I laughed at the PL dudes in B-R. Remaining objective to the opposing side isn't really a thing most EVE players 'get' and honestly, then there's that other group that actually has real hate for dudes because of differing alliance tickers.

Normally, I'd say something like viewing r/eve as a Goon would be like viewing this thread as a non-Goon, but I'm sure some superstar poster would make me regret doing that fairly quickly. r/eve is pretty horrible in all regards, there's the occasional goodpost there, but the poo poo you have to wade through to find those gems is often not worth it; however, playing EVE for either side makes you objectively biased to the other side automatically- no amount of hurfing and/or blurfing from ~the enemy~ is going to make you unbelieve what you spent a soul-crushing amount of time doing- despite that, both sites are circlejerks for their respective 'side' to the non-player and trying to convince them (or the opposition) that it's not is just an exercise in futility.

Comstar posted:I find it hard to believe that "didn't want that sov anyway" while the front lines from Deklien are still 20 jumps away. There's a hell of a lot of people coming back on both sides to see the big battles IN a long war of attrition. CCP needs the numbers, they don't care who supplies them, and they will assist the Imperiam just as much if not more- they have professional Scope propaganda on the Imperiam's side, twice in a week! They want this war more than anyone else. This isn't really a war of attrition right now though, it's a poo poo stomp. Maybe once the 'Good Guys' get to Deklein and there's some maneuvering, strategic use of the supers, and other various things that make war interesting- but right now, this is just FW on a larger scale (someone is actually losing their space, and not some fake, forced tug of war). GaussianCopula posted:I'd say following their Washington analogy for someone who successfully used a Fabian strategy, they are hoping for a Battle of Saratoga type event that gets someone still neutral (more Russians?) to back them. What the Imperium needs is a newbie drive and an OP worthy of one.

GaussianCopula posted:In this case the deciding resources are players logging into the game, which means that the strategy of the Imperium clashes with the goals of CCP, because they want less people (preferably on the side attackers side) to login each day. Except, that this is going to be the exact opposite of what's going to happen. Sit idly by and watch it burn, hell bring some marshmallows and make smores- but if you think there's a group in EVE that's suddenly going to not want to login and burn down the Imperium's castle... you're delusional.

Eonwe posted:can you guys explain why the other factions couldn't hold your territory You actually have to use your space to keep ADMs (active defense multipliers) high, afaik every ADM level adds an additional 10 minutes to the capture timer. This means the 'Good Guys' would have to rat, mine and use their space instead of just setting up a shanty town and waiting to see what the CFC/Imperium reaction will be. Honestly, I think it's pretty foolhardy to think that the invaders are looking to setup a permanent shop there, and instead they will just install groups that always wanted space, but couldn't take it or just let the people that want it move in. Honestly, a nullsec full of random groups of people all fighting their little tribal wars is a lot more fun than one coalition owning 'the galactic north'. Maybe this shake up will be the kick in the rear end CCP needs to 'fix' otherwise underwhelming nullsec income. The worst case scenario and the best case scenario both involve Goons losing all their space. Siets posted:-TEST and other groups do not have SRP. In the long-run, their wallets will wear down and their fleet numbers will decrease. The Imperium is fabulously wealthy and can sustain long war efforts like no other entity in the game. Crushing the will of others via a long war of attrition that eventually wears them down where we march on has been the name of our game for the past decade. Unless TEST changes their culture from "lolbertarian bootstraps!" to a similar socialist SRP program to match our game, they simply will lose in the long run (as they have in the past.) I don't expect many of you to agree with me on this- but honestly, flying in groups without SRP makes people gently caress up less and overall contributes to a better EVE experience. That being said, groups have lived and thrived for years without it, so it's not like some big Achilles heel everyone tries to make it out to be.

This was a gang of like 5 people at the most, and we were in small poo poo like t1 cruisers. It was pretty much the same in the 20-50 man fw fleets that I would sometimes join: it was just sort of assumed that everyone did whatever the purpose of their ship was, while at the time I really wanted to whore on killmails so I flew a griffin with a small smartbomb and jammed every enemy while shooting every friendly and either no one noticed or no one cared and in either respect no one ever yelled at me about it because there was no comms.
