I mean it's not like SA of all places telling people not to join GSF is really going to have a measureable effect on recruitment to the alliance at this point.

It's a bit insulting to those SA posters who are still in CFC and who are apparently serious about effecting change. But until clear and convincing evidence is shown that a real seachange has happened, it's for the best, I suppose.

Edit: maybe don't recommend BRAVE so quickly from the feedback already either?

I hope the new CEO bans Mittani but the interim leadership doesn't seem interested, agreed. Their tenure is to be on the order of a week, so we'll see once the handoff is complete.

I'm willing to take what they say at face value for now. I don't like everything that has been announced (mostly that he isn't banned), but the people involved - theAdj, xttz, Atrum, etc. seem to be on-side and respected well enough?

Xenuria is banned, Innom is out, Mittens hasn't been on comms apparently in days. It's at least a minor improvement. Waiting for more evidence.

I mean you sort of vaguely know me, DT. Not always the smartest guy on comms, and I really think people can do better. But yeah, if new leadership doesn't ban Mittani for the whole Xenuria thing for starters... it's a failure to face facts imho..

Hey quick question,
So this entire mess with Goonswarm, and especially the issue with Xenuria being a pedo, has reminded me of the Archeage goon guild and the splintering of that guild over a pedophile. I remember playing during that time, but I was just some dumb low-level guy in the guild. All I remember was SCT kept bringing another goon, BobFromMarketing, back in after he got kicked for being outed as a groomer.

I went with Kimsemus' group because holy poo poo, gently caress that. I can understand not knowing the guy was a pedophile that had groomed a kid, but once you know the only acceptable response is to cut all ties and fire them out the airlock.

Well, surprise surprise. BobFromMarketing is still playing EVE. Looks like around the time he got outed he joined Pandemic Legion.

Anyone got any of the info on BFM? Would be great to get a second pedophile out of EVE Online.

94 pages. I left for work and it was 66. Caught up now.

Had to do some digging, but it was September of 2016 the whole dog thing went down. She stayed with us about three weeks and I regularly walked 210lbs of dog at once (we had 2 already). For those wondering, Sitka is still around, but quite old and frail. The cats were all retrieved in the end, because most cat lovers given animals on false pretenses would not think of keeping them against the actual owners will. They were told a variety of lies, and they thought they were helping. Manipulative sociopath...

He absolutely could have said 'just go get the dog'. We had keys to their house, for back and forth house sitting. It was pure malice.

Those were some crazy days. Buying implants with LP, cashing some of them out for LP store money and putting the rest back in a freighter to explode, and just seeing the value compound over time. Even with donating LP to the FW ihubs to prop up the multiplier, the number just kept going up and up and up.

Also bear in mind there's a nonzero chance the deposed leader just... walks away from Eve entirely. Don't underestimate the liberating feeling of being completely freed from any and all responsibility. The longer the absence, the more likely this is to happen.

Of course, I can't guarantee that. The identity part might be stronger than the liberation feeling.

Hi Deadtear. Missed you.

And fnln is doing a disservice to Ark. Not that my dad wasn't completely willing to drive down from Alaska to find my dog, but Shiny beat him to it because about an hour after I got the email from Alex saying he was divorcing me I called Ark & Shiny crying from Russia having hysterics because I didn't know what was going on, where any of my pets were, and things in Russia had gotten ... complicated. Shiny & Ark, being the stellar human beings that they are, helped me find Sitka, 'convince' Alex to sign over the necessary paperwork to get her from the kennel he'd dropped her at, and then housed her for the month until I could get back from Moscow.

Then Shiny and another Madison goon found two of my cats--Jetta & LBJ--and got them returned to me about two months after that. And then the goths found my last cat for me about 6 months after that. I've had all 3 cats & Sitka ever since and they are doing very well. Thank you to the people who were concerned for them.

Please stop emailing me about it. It's very weird.

Citizen Rat posted:

I really don't want to know anything more about it because as far as I am concerned the very last thing I ever want to know about Alex is that he stole his (ex?) girlfriend's grand piano. He doesn't play the piano.

I am! I landed a gig where they let me teach both Indigenous and anarchist politics! And then let me run around helping Indigenous communities file lawsuits against the nation-states in which they reside. (This is the one that got me into to trouble in Russia. Turns out the Russian powers that be really do not like it when you potentially both help Indigenous peoples and interfere with the flow of oil. Ah well.

Citizen Rat posted:

I am mostly okay with the piddly poo poo, but the bigger projects I should be supervised for because most of the time I've never had to do it myself. I have apparently leaned in hard to the useless/helpless academic stereotype so generally people don't let me get much further than announcing the problem and my plans to deal with before stepping and keeping me from, idek, nailing myself to a wall or something.

Reminder that TheAdj was the final reason that I lost all faith in the org because he showed me that mittani had surrounded himself with true yesmen who will unthinkingly follow instructions and could provide no counsel.

Lol @ not wanting to bleed members: If Adj had just messaged me this would have been peaceably resolved. If you guys had to listened to deadtear, you wouldn't be Groomfleet now
If you'd listened to anyone who tried to tell you this stuff, it wouldn't be happening
Like actually just lol

Hi CR: you don't know me but I used to talk a lot with your dad when he played, in Theta comms when Ted (Space Dad) was in charge. Could you tell him hi from me and Ive really missed hanging out with him on comms. I hope everything is going great for him (and you). If he's still online I can send contact deets?

Thanks

Zodium posted:

Alex will start by laying groundwork through pulling on his network to downplay and diffuse the details and emotional impact. Then, he'll return as a professor emeritus sort of regular member, just hanging and shooting the poo poo, being a cool guy who's learned his lesson now. Finally, when the organization next comes under pressure, he'll sigh, and ever so reluctantly respond to the membership's growing calls for his triumphant return to leadership.

deadtear where did you buy your mountain, somewhere in the Carolinas/Appalachia or are you rich AF and bought property out west? I assume the former since you're talking about infinite water and not firestorms and smoke
