tbf they would get smashed when they are on, too - some people have had the idea of limiting how much can be on a grid through a gate or whatever but that has a host of its own problems




heres my shitpost for the day

reverse adms, the more you use up a system, the more vulnerable it is so small groups who cant use their space it's harder to crack and have longer to defend it and big groups have easy to crack space but plenty of members to defend it in a small amount of time

would just result in the bigger groups spreading out even more to lower how much each system gets used

Cool I'm in that discord but one of my RL friends that I played Eve with mentioned they had sov now so I wasn't sure.

we've recently settled a c5 WR. we've started doing pve fleets to pump isk into our coffers and have plans to start doing pvp out of that hole too. the sov deffo does exist but goose leadership philosophy* is that the game is meant to be fun and their job is to offer fun things to do, not tell you what you have to do.

*I'm not goose leadership but this is what theyve said

so there's no bounties, just drop an mtu then scoop the loot?

nothing quite like the thrill of flying a blockade runner with 3.5b in blue loot from a 10 person fleet that you need to get to a station to sell, and knowing that if you get popped youll have to find a way to pay people out of pocket :v:

if some director dipshit is acting like a dipshit because he is self-absorbed, then tell him such. There's no need to worry about backlash.
If a bunch of pubbie shitters start white knighting because he's important, tell them to gently caress off too.

diplos exist to smooth over blue shooting. honestly if youre not shooting blues then youre putting their jobs at risk for lack of work.

Let's say, hypothetically, that one has played EVE for years. Let's also say, that this individual was part of Goons for ages, and always wanted to be in Goonwaffe. Finally, let's say this r word also payed for an SA account in the vain hope of being accepted into Goonwaffe. What would the hypothetical odds of this individual being accepted into GEWNs be?

the only problem i had with his delivery was the way he said "fiat currency" every time he mentioned real money. idk if this guys a crypto weirdo or what but every time he said fiat it seemed like he loving hated the concept

finally managed to use a cap for something other than rolling a hole (evacing stuff from a disused station) and managed to do just about everything wrong except getting caught. I remember starting playing in 2013 and seeing all the big giant ships and thinking "oh boy i can wait until i can fly one of those awesome ships:shobon:" and now the thought of buying one is a solid "lol, lmao"

i was told there would be a cap escalation fight and managed to get myself into the staging system and into a dread in time. i was all excited to use a cap for something other than just rolling holes and it ended up just being an uncontested structure bash:negative:

I like jackdaws because they can combat probe and they align very quick and they look really cool when they fold up into prop mode. Jackdaws are good and cheap you can just throw them around like whee

yeah this was my experience last night, fly around in prop mode, drop combats, land on a vexor and grab em then switch to defense while honking in local and your buddies warp to you
