That's right. I'm a SomethingAwful Goon and Goonwaffe pilot. Have been for the better part of a decade. And guess what? I'm proud of it.
I'm proud of being in the most powerful organization in video gaming history. I'm proud of being in an elite PVP organization, whose very name sends chills down the bones of our blood enemies. Are you?
Nothing makes me laugh harder than /r/eve making GBS threads all over our leader. When was the last time any of you nerds even opened a book? I bet 5% of you at most have even heard of Slavoj Zizek, much less read anything by him.
Sorry about our leader. Sorry that he's not a NEET loser who spends most of his time masturbating to lolicon in his parents' basement like most of the "Money Badger Coalition". Sorry that he's actually a socially competent, well-adjusted, intelligent individual who's well read and treats women like human beings instead of fucktoys and masturbation objects.
I wonder what would happen if any of you actually met The Mittani IRL. You would probably poo poo your pants so hard the inertia would propel you upwards a couple of feet at the very least.
I wake up every morning at 4 AM and spend 2 hours before work helping my alliance and my leader as much as humanly possile. I only get around 4 hours of sleep a night- this has been going on for the past couple of months. I'm starting to have minor audio hallucinations and other prodromal symptoms as a result (at this point almost totally suppressed by prescription anti-psychotics)
And guess what? I wouldn't trade it for any other thing in the world.
You will never be able to defeat us. Because we have higher IQ than you do. We have girlfriends, unlike you. And most importantly- we have Allah on our side. Allah favors the righteous, the noble. The wicked and sinful will be struck down in an ineffably post-racial cataclysmic anti-atrocity. Rest in piss my podkilled enemies. And eternal glory to the warriors of Allah, whose names will be etched forever into the anals of history.

Which one of you is this?

She had no evidence and refused to give specifics, and that combined with peace'ing out to join our current enemy is in and of itself shady. If you leave in the middle of the war to join the people currently attempting to keep us out of our space don't expect to be handle with kiddie gloves when throwing out accusations.

So literally accusing ones leadership of shady stuff is an influencing factor in being blacklisted? Like, the same treatment reserved for corp thiefs and spys. Ok then.

Accusing ones leadership of shady stuff with no evidence and then subsequently leaving and joining the enemy, yes. Idk why your trying to make it seem like she raised some concerns then was thrown out.

I'm not trying to say that. I was just saddened that the directorate deemed that part important enough to put on the blacklist description. It says a lot about the thought process. That being said, this is becoming a pedantic argument that I have no wish to continue. Sorry for the derail.

So I see a common thread where dudes like Venom complain that those leaving don't stay and try and reform GSF from within. How exactly do you see that reform happening? I'm too lazy to go dig it up but I remember a Mittens post talking about how it's easier to just get rid of dissenters than address their complaints. (I think this was the post about how truegoons go fuckgoons) anyway, what's an average line member gonna do? It's not like we can vote the current leadership out. It's pretty frustrating so a lot of guys just leave to a better cultural fit.

I mean, you could start with saying what the reforms you want are, either in this thread or hit me up on jabber (if I ignore you though, it's likely that i'm on one computer and it went to the other so I may respond in a few hours). I am always happy to listen to complaints and address them if I can. Sometimes, there are people you can't make happy - either because what they want and what everyone else wants are incompatible, or because they're just kind of a shitler (and my guess is, that's what the mittens post you're thinking of is about) - but most of the time there's something that we can work on.

Hey, I appreciate your accessibility, seriously. Good to know its not all just lip service.

It's pretty easy to talk to directors these days with Elysium and just bothering to seek them out. And the reason I complain is I don't like it when valuable people leave, Id rather them stay and try to make a difference because leaving just makes it harder on all the people trying to fix poo poo. Although it's a video game and people are free to go and do what they want.

Yes bitching in Elysium will effect change

however that just doesnt have the same entertainment value as turning the attention whore dial up to 11 on your way out and vaguely alluding to ~problems~ or throwing a giant walleyed loving fit because you were left out of a comic

I have to say, dreadnaught rats as a way to kill afk ratting was a shockingly well-thought out and well-executed move by CCP. I'm just not used to CCP actually pulling that sort of thing off, they silently killed afk ratting and made nullsec basically happy with its demise.

Say what you will about how hilariously incompetent CCP is, but it seems like they know what people want, they just implement it in the worst possible way. I think they got it generally right this time.
