Unfunny Poster posted:I don't deny it's not ideal for new players entirely. As to the example, I don't really sit in Plusten anymore, so I don't know who said what but yeah that sounds like a really bad suggestion to that guys issue. I'd have simply told him to head down to Querious and work on increasing his coffers some or something that was a bit safer than sitting in a system like O1Y trying to make money. Like I said, I've basically become disconnected from Horde for the past two weeks since I'm focusing on stuff with EVE NT TV & their esports/streaming stuff nowadays. Virtually no quality control is going on in horde. No vetting at any level. The FC for the horde standing fleet for several days standing was a goon who was feeding a neutral gang killmails by randomly warping squads into death camps. I can't think of a shittier environment to be a newbie in than one where the leadership can't even be arsed to half assed defend you against your own membership. TEST does it better, as does GSF. The only reason you do it better than Brave Newbies is because they are a perpetual dumpster fire that literally collapsed into infighting in the middle of this war without us even firing a shot.

Since you were an ex-mod I was just curious your thoughts on it given the whole "niggertown" channel being allowed & that discussion from a while back. Slim Matt was pretty mad about his personal channel being removed. I was greatly entertained. Now that foehammer is gone the foehammering erry day channel should be renamed the foehammer memorial masturbation station

Meh, I'm not a fan of super buffs in general. The fact that functionally "Non State" actors with no skin in the game can gain enough power through simply having a large pool of isk to effectively be spoilers in any armed conflict in the game is an issue. This isn't like hiring Noir. or even what we laughably call Mercenary Coalition where they can sway the balance in the occasional fight or even a war by a smaller margin. Come the future where nullsec logically balkanizes under fozzie sov, whoever hires PL first in any conflict is pretty much automatically the winner. So once we're stomped, or abased to sufficient degree that PL wants to fish other waters, wherever they land is going to be Brave Newbies X2, and it's going to be loving awful. Like I don't know why people think we formed this coalition just for yuks. It was literally formed as a way to defend ourselves from actors like PL. Space Monkies for all the poo poo talk about them had PL squatting on top of them for several months. So did we. The fact that the coalition went off the rails with dumb imperium/viceroy poo poo is a non arguable point.

Landsknecht posted:the cfc failed because people don't have to play a game The CFC failed because we continue to make long term strategic mistakes under the mistaken assumption that our single direction "Bro Pact" will one day be reciprocated. Basically despite constantly talking about twisting the knife, every single time we get a knife into someone we immediately go all limp wristed, like we caught a spell of the vapors at seeing blood or something. Like B-R should have been deadzoned indefinitely, all of the super pos caged and we should have just squatted there for as long as it took. Playing H1Z1 in one window while the "Log on to finish this." button was available in the other. See what PL/NC. did to the russians for about 2 years straight if you need a refresher on just being vicious.

Landsknecht posted:so you admit that the cfc has failed? now that the coalition has failed and there's no longer the ~morale~ to get 1500 bodies in a fleet, it'll be interesting to see what happens Goonswarm itself and the allies still standing aren't fail cascading or anything, so it's less interesting than you probably think. As far as the 1500 bodies in fleet go: We haven't had anything called for that calls for those kind of numbers yet. I'd argue we could still hurf that kind of participation. When I say the coalition failed: I mean it failed to do what was arguably it's core purpose for existing. Stopping a steamroller. Well the steamroller has rolled, and we're pretty much coasting on the other side now. As people start to settle into their ~new forever homes~ things are going to be very interesting for the new tenants. As far as fozzie sov goes: Suddenly small to medium gang pvp is really loving important to holding/taking space, we're going to have to take a crash course on that kind of thing because as a coalition we've largely shat on the concept of small "Punch above weight" pvp for ages now, and it turns out when 20 or 30 nodes are being hacked at once, you can't hurf 2000 dudes for each one. This sov system is basically a small gang dudes wet dream.

Then he warped the aeon in to save the thanatos, and well. Note this is all second hand. But so far in the last week we've killed about five carriers, one dread, now a super, and a crapload of rattlesnakes. EDIT: I'm going to go ahead and say these paisti syndicate guys stupid as gently caress and are going to get murdered by the bakers dozen and Horde has a better chance of keeping Fade than these jackasses do dek.

ullerrm posted:I know this is low grade r/eve trolling, but I'm gonna bite. Here's some examples of criticizing GSF leadership, all of which are true criticisms, and all of which have been said without reprisal in the last month or less: I've openly stated that I don't care for turning goons into a brand, and that I'm not at all happy about how our leadership has issues separating their Media Identities via The Shittiest Eve News Website Dot Com and their leadership of GSF. I think this would largely be solved if like our number one and number two guy weren't stakeholders in the big dumb gay media empire. I think giving Sion the robotic boy a talking role in any form of media was a giant loving mistake because the hard edged "Soft vs hard power" diplomacy poo poo doesn't work well in a media format, and what he saw as an attack piece on reddit was pointed out on this very forum as coming off as bitchy crying. Was it bitchy crying? Probably not, but perception is everything. I think that like it or not r/eve has basically become the new Kugu, and refusing to get in on the ground floor as opposed to just throwing poo poo at the wall to see what would stick was probably a mistake. We've proven time and time again that we can shift and move the culture of Eve Online, not applying those lessons there was stupid. I think we've so poorly handled old friends and their own concerns about these things that they've walked away. I view the likes of Endie, Blawrf, Suas (Who I can't stand by the way) turning against us as an indicator of an internal sickness that needs to be solved. Basically we need to huff our own farts a little less. On the other hand of the equation: This war has brought the old small gang dudes out of the woodwork and I'm having a loving blast with blops again. I don't think any of the problems are problems that can't be solved, and as I've said to a few people: Goons in Space as a nullsec power is important to me, and no I don't think Groon or Groon 2.0 with an angry man at the helm really fit the bill. I was hoping DJ would stick around and be kind of an ex CEO sounding board, and make positive waves instead of just dumping a bunch of assholes into every thread. I'd much rather people angry at the way things are try to stick things out and maybe change them for the better than just gently caress off to the He Man Goonhaters club, because problems exist to be solved. Namaste. Whatever. I severely doubt I'll be kicked out for this post. Nerds.

Like saying just "Shady things are happening" isn't even that interesting in an alliance that really likes to scam people. I feel that people don't get me as a goon. Like sure watching our fleets blot out the sun and win the war would be entertaining, but if I could do it by disbanding an alliance and stealing everything not nailed down I'd do it in a heartbeat. Because it's funny.
