There's too much conflicting info. Someone posted a screenshot of the EO forums (?) where it said Valador is finally agreeing to stepping down, member corps ceos not being alts, etc. Is that no longer going forward?

This was poor Banana's painstakingly scrapped out position after 18 hours of persuading. He went to bed and then an hour later with Valador off the leash this happens.






For the record all items are now returned, truly we have the moral high ground.

On the conference call we hear Val's kids, wife, etc. and he admitted that he doesn't have infinite time to play because if that, and that he woke up angrily after seeing messages etc.

All that is fine. But why is he fighting tooth and nail to not only lead the alliance but also micromanage everything?

Let's say he isn't working as a deep cover whatever or doing RMT with stolen isk. He still doesn't (and shouldn't have to) have the time, he knows he's a lightning rod that will bleed the corps, people are already yelling at him, and that's not not even talking about his temperament. I don't understand :psyduck:

best part of this video is that while the second contract is being made, the first contract gets accepted. there's pretty much no way of skimming off the top and saying that the full amount didn't get returned :v:

Guys, can I point out this thread is now for GROO and EE recruitment.

Can we start to tone down the drama in here a little and get back to playing the game?...

It's clear to everyone at this point that the original corp is and dead venture based on lots of reasons but rather than pointing fingers, lets just move on and rebuild with GROO without the bullshit drama.

Ask me about being a SJW in EE and working to make anyone who disagrees with me a villain and gets no opportunity to defend themselves at all because my army or sycophants I buy off with pixels follows me blindly.

so something completely different.

Valador asked me for my discord bots I made for skynet two months ago. I got sketched out from the way he was speaking to me, and he had been investigated by us for being a spy in another game, so I knew of his post history.

I told him we'd see how it goes, and then he flipped out on Goonswarm for telling him that he couldn't use the goonswarm brand. I left the server then, cause I knew where this was going.

Eve Echoes pops up, and we're flooding into the game. I decided not to join goonswarm, instead I formed a virtual manufacturing company through google spreadsheets. I started with drones and hobgoblins, sold a thrasher fleet issue for 20 mil, and used that seed money to start up the business. I then began advertising on reddit and the eve echoes discord for investors and sales.

Here is the spreadsheet here, if you'd like reference.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1YlJsd_HnHSRQBtmqkfGpB83Wle6PpbP0s5NGX_8PScw/edit?usp=sharing

So while goonswarm was doing it's thing, I stayed docked in Jita and built ships. Fast forward to yesterday, I turned my stupid 20 mil isk into 500 mil, about 40% of it people buying stock. I was actually impressed people wanted to invest in something like this.

I set up a discord bot linked to the google api to give people automated quotes for any ship.

I never trusted Valador, I knew none of the people in leadership of goonswarm, and i honestly expected this to happen with splintering. So now the splintering is here, and my 500 mil equity manufacturing company will be focused on getting goons into ships at cheap costs and getting everyone having fun in the game.

So come join GROON and be apart of space capitalism.

In positive news this game is very good and nuGroon is very chill and good. That is all.

So I remember back when I played Eve I had some drone boat loaded with shields to so some sort of weird inverse tank that got stronger as you lost shield.

I think I was in gallente? Is that a real thing I may be misremembering? This would have been more than 10 yeara ago.
