I don't understand why anyone would pay to be in a corp let alone pay 500mil. My limited brain functions does not allow me to comprehend the logic in that. |

But you know, it will never be worth 17.50$to join a space pixel guild. Maybe 10$, if I am bored, but not 17.50$. I have limits after all |

scamming idiots out of their monies if overflowing with honor
being a moron and giving in to the oldest scam in the book is what is without honor
The American public's reaction to the change was poor and the new cola was a major marketing failure. The subsequent reintroduction of Coke's original formula, re-branded as "Coca-Cola Classic", resulted in a significant gain in sales, leading to speculation that the introduction of the New Coke formula was just a marketing ploy |

He told me to deposit 500mil for two characters I wanted in which totals 1b. He also told me that my ships would be transported to their station so I contracted my Hulk and my Charon to him. Later he told me to meet him in highsec and go to their space, on the way there I get both my character PODs blown up by other Goons and nonsciolist has no worthy explanation, implants ******. By this time I still hadn't been brought in to the corp so I closed EVE and waited a day. Still no answer, I tried mailing nonsciolist two times but he wouldn't answer. When I log in after another day I received a notification saying that my application was rejected, that is weird because my application on their website said accepted and I had deposited ISK. Again I tried contacting nonsciolist without success, I managed to get hold of another recruiter and he promised to check what went wrong with my application. Yes you guessed right, he did not reply. Late last night I contacted someone else in GoonWaffe, not sure what position he had but he told me that I was misquoted in my application and that I had to pay another 500mil per character. I do not understand why because I was clearly accepted on the website and the recruiter I first came in contact with said nothing about another 1b. He promised to be online when I logged in today because I was going to pay another 1b and get my application accepted. Do you think he is answering? Of course not. So here I am without any ships and no money and with NO way to contact any Goon that can answer me directly. UPDATE!
I just got a threat from Valtaric himself, against me, a poor noob that has been playing for 5 months.

It is well known that Goonwaffe became the biggest corp in the game by never recruiting anyone and scamming everyone.
These threads have nothing to do with the fact that not everyone is allowed to join us, or that we pull stunts like Burn Jita which just makes pubbies mad, driving them to the forums to slander us in a sad attempt to retaliate.
OP, if you didn't get in, it was probably because of your corp history, or something you've done in-game. I suggest you talk to an OFFICIAL recruiter, and make sure they are who they say they are. If you know who scammed you, then report it to someone who can actually do something about it, instead of broadcasting your foolishness to the entire forums. |

If you really want to join Goons register an account on somethingawful.com. Then jump immediately to the recruiting thread and post there . Everybody knows Goons only recruit SA-Forum members. BTW, don't bother with the wall of text in said threat - just post a friendly hello. Oh, and don't forget your welcome thread on the GBS subforum ;). |

Why? Ship reimbursement, excellent ratting and mining systems, membership in a huge alliance, ops running literally around the clock, huge independent market, and a leader on the CSM. We're also one of the biggest and richest corps in the game, so you're pretty much free to do whatever you like, be that ratting, pvp, mining, industry, anomalies, wormholes, pretty much anything you like.
Believe me, events like Hulkageddon and Burn Jita are a lot more fun when you're on the giving end. Sure, we upset a lot of people, but pvp is the nature of this game. We don't play the game the way everyone else wants us to, so they come here and slander us as their only means of retaliation.
Despite what the whiners on these forums say, we do recruit, we could hardly be as big as we are if we didn't, even recruiting from the SA forums. If you actually want to have fun in this game, I'm an official recruiter, so send me a message and I'll be glad to help you out.
Or you can simply stay in tiny highsec corps, making sure to log on the required number of times per week, doing your required CTAs, ratting frigates, and mining veldspar like it was your real life job, making in a month what your average goon does in a day. At least until some Thrashers show up and destroy your Hulk.

Do not be fooled by this arguement.. Most of the people recruited into goons came from outside the eve gaming community. Mittani himself explained it best when he was asked about the recruitment scams, "of course they are scams; we don't want any new players, we have 8000 now.. we don't need new players."

If he does a really funny welcome thread, our auths have been known to let the posting history/account age restrictions slide. Comedy is job #1 after all. |

Some of you people are gonna get marked by the goons, i will never say anything bad about a corp i know nothing about, i know of the goonswarm, and it is probably exciting to take part in a corp that is not afraid, and it seems it would be easy to learn from so many. I regret the way i play sometimes always worried about every cent, but thats because i have no back up in my corp, i want to pvp, but with one other person, gets old, when everyone else just wants to do missions. I have been in alot of corps, not because i wanted to, because most of them die , or nobody pvp's. But im not gonna sit here and say they are scammers, because i dont know, we should watch what we say, explosions are expensive. |

REALLY!?! People that say that and back such ignorant action are the reason why the whole EVE community should grief players that make the game not fun to play. SERIOUSLY!!! This kind of nonsense is childish and idiotic. Did your parents drop you on your heads or were you born a bunch of colossal pricks? I know that the game has is ups and down when it comes to PVP and taking risks but that is part of the game. But this particular sort of "Pirates" (Con-artists) should be banned from play for at least a few years. |

Scams are part of what make EVE unique. If you are dumb enough to fall for one, you deserve to lose everything anyway.
If you want people banned for scamming, go back to wow. It probably has another year or 2 before they shut down the servers due to lack of population. |

For bigger jobs of that nature, a Capital ship pilot would typically bring it in through our system of private jump gates, shortening the trip by about 10 systems and bypassing a lot of typically hostile and dangerous systems.
It sounds unlikely, I know, but they've never lost a package yet, and they do this every day. |

This really depends on whose perspective you're looking from. For me, sitting in Empire mining Veldspar while obsessively checking local for hostiles and docking up for hours at a time when they inevitably show up sounds downright sleep inducing.
Mandatory CTAs, mining quotas, rats that drop the lowest value T1 garbage, this is what makes Eve not fun to play.
PvPing whenever you like without worrying about losing a ship thanks to ship reimbursement on the other hand is quite fun. Making 500mil/month on the even the laziest effort of PI is fun. Ratting battleship, hauler, and even the rare officer spawn is fun, particularly when it makes you several billion on the loot alone.
Frankly, I don't know how you pubbies stand it. |
