Edited by: CaptainGordon on 13/11/2007 22:04:48 Goons are members of the Something Awful community. They are an extremely tight-knit group which has stood the test of time. The entire purpose of this community is to make fun of stupid people on the Internet and all the stupid cliches that are born from the Internet's worst parts.
That doesn't mean that goons are facist 100% of the time towards non-goons (further reffered to as "pubbies"), it merely means that goons do not place the same value and emphasis on "pubbie" values as other "pubbies" do.
Eve Online is the perfect example of such conflict, where the general public audience tends to take the game way too seriously. Such attitude provokes the majority of goon outbursts, since most of the goons don't believe into taking anything on the Internet seriously, especially the parts of it that deal with entertainment. Games are not meant to be taken seriously in real life, never mind the extent of fanaticism to which some games, like Eve or World of Warcraft has driven some people to. Such people deserve all the ridicule they get, since our entire community lives and breathes satire. Most of goon actions are motivated by a simple desire for this satire and comedy, in-game or out of it. The recent storm of horrible posts in CAOD is the perfect example of a huge joke, that went over the heads of the most "pubbies" here.
Before the Great Eve War, CAOD was dominated by a bunch of absolutely arrogant, power-tripping Band of Brothers posters who thought that wars are won with "kill/death ratios". They proceeded to use colorful phrases, like "industrial backbone" and "kill efficiency" to describe how they are utterly crushing their opposition, when in fact what was going on in the game was quite different compared to what was being posted here. The entire forum was their playground and virtually no one complained about that at the time. In fact, such ridiculous circle jerking was encouraged by the general "pubbie" population of CAOD. The very fact that the CAOD crowd is reacting very differently to the exact same trolling from goons now, abeit under a slightly different flavor, is the cause of much comedy among us. It is rare to see a community so hypocritical and so incredibly stuck up that they cant even take their own satire well.
We had a fantastic laugh at your expense, and we will continue to do so as long as you are going to provide us with this opportunity. This is the essence of what goons do in Eve - its so much fun to play this game because its absolutely packed with stupid people, who cause a lot of drama when the game doesn't go their way.
And we absolutely love it.

Eve is less of a game than most other MMO's. The complexity of dealing with a mega-corporation and vast alliance, the logistics... hell, it's almost enough like running a real corporation that you should be able to put it on your resume. Maybe that's why some people take the game seriously. They enjoy the life-like complexity of it. Not because they're taking it too seriously.

The thing is though, its still a game. A game that has no bearing on real life what-so-ever. It exists to entertain, nothing more.
And if I was the interviewer reading that resume, you would never get the job.

Print out your post mate, read it back to yourself when you are a bit older and wiser, then try to think about who is more stupid. The people that play the game seriously and enjoy it for what it is, or the people that just exist to make fun of these people.

It's not quite as clear cut as that. The difference between the previous trolling you mention and your own brand of it, is that I can parse their statements and say "this is bravado, this is fact" and so on, and still come off respecting them for communicating intelligently.
Whereas every Goon post just has me rolling my eyes and wishing Doc would finish building that DeLorean so I can go back in time and prevent Something Awful from ever, ever, happening. Whatever message or statement on memes or patterns that was trying to be empasised is lost in the noise.
It's kind of ironic, really. The Goons "invading" the game to make fun of stupid internet cliches, only to become one themselves.
EDIT: I do want to say, though, that it's refreshing to see intelligence being exhibited for once from a Goon on COAD, and think everyone would benefit from more examples of such.

1. The OP is very alien and ungoony. I expect him to be ridiculed on the GF board.
But for the sake of argumentation:
a.) SA community isn't equal to Goonfleet community. Just because the EvE Goons recruit themselves from SA doesn't mean SA adheres to the same values as Goonfleet. In fact somethingwaful is too big to make the case for homogeneous and definable SA values. Each sub forum there has developed it's own culture.
b.) Goons take the game much more seriously than most other alliances in this game. Just look at all their nerd rage.
c.) It's interesting that Goons explain again and again their obnoxious behavior with alleged previous behavior by BoB. For a organization that states again and again that they don't care about their public image, they sure make a lot of excuses.

So there's something in his post that you relate to? Do you feel like you're being made fun of? You take this as some sort of personal slight?
Solution: stop taking a game so seriously, and a neckbeard might help.

You are wrong, good sir.
a)SA != Goonfleet, that is true, but Goonfleet would never be as popular on SA as it is not if it didn't advertise itself based on the same values all goons hold dear.
b)the nerd rage is a satire, you just don't "get" it
c)you still don't get it, u r***

I hate to destroy your delusions, but Goonfleet isn't popular on SA. How's the ratio of SA accounts to Goonfleet accounts? Just look at the EvE sub sub forum there. It's tiny.
And again I highly doubt that there are values that all SA-Goons hold universally dear.

Eve Online is the perfect example of such conflict, where the general public audience tends to take the game way too seriously.
It's all perspective. One could easily make the case that Goons take enlightening the Eve community and educating all the ignorant pubbies too seriously.
For some, humor and satire take precidence. For others, quality immersion. Then Eve mixes the two and suddenly mutual hate and recrimination takes precidence.
It's a beautiful game alright.

The fact that the general community on Something Awful has considered removing the LEAve Online section several times now shows how little they appreciate this group of goons' take on things.
The fact that the bleeding WoW goon community is more respected than the Eve one on Something Awful is hilarious enough.

I have had enough of Goonswarm! I want to share this with you because Goonswarm is driving me nuts. I can't take it anymore! Goonswarm is willing -- even eager -- to jettison its scruples in order to stay ahead of the pack. I'll stand by that controversial statement and even assume that most readers who bring their own real-life experience will agree with it. At a bare minimum, I am completely shocked and angered by Goonswarm's subhuman, uncontrollable improprieties. Such shameful conduct should never be repeated. It is past time for us to operate on today's real -- not tomorrow's ideal -- political terrain. I'll say that again, because I want it to sink in: Goonswarm has been, still is, and always will remain more cold-blooded than the most sophomoric bureaucrats you'll ever see.
I won't bore you with the details, but suffice it to say that one of the things I find quite interesting is listening to other people's takes on things. For instance, I recently overheard some folks remark that Goonswarm plans to change the course of history. The result will be an amalgam of power-hungry elitism and reprehensible terrorism, if such a monster can be imagined. Almost every day, Goonswarm outreaches itself in setting new records for arrogance, deceit, and greed. It's surely breathtaking to watch it. If you think that there is something intellectually provocative in the tired rehashing of irrational stereotypes, then think again. It is painful to write such truisms, but for the time being, this is not a major issue. It vehemently denies that, of course. But it obviously would, because we mustn't let it open new avenues for the expression of hate. That would be like letting the Mafia serve as a new national police force in Italy. By now, the reader has discerned that Goonswarm is a bacillus in the cranky gut of cynicism. So let me just add that it truly believes that it has its moral compass in tact. I hope you realize that that's just a lame-brained pipe dream from a nefarious pipe, and that in the real world, we've tolerated Goonswarm's obtuse animadversions long enough. It's time to lose our patience and chill our kindness. It's time to speak out against behavior and speech that is intended to put increased disruptive powers in the hands of brazen flibbertigibbets. It's time to shout to the world that no one has a higher opinion of it than I, and I think it's an inhumane segregationist.
As everyone knows, thanks to Goonswarm, I'm now suffering from post-traumatic stress syndrome. What you might not know, however, is that it is not news that its hijinks are amalgams of popular themes among sordid beguilers, blasphemous cozeners, and the worst types of lawless, directionless lugs I've ever seen. What speaks volumes, though, is that Goonswarm, who is astonishingly adroit at twisting words, has been able to convince scores of people that it has the authority to issue licenses for practicing post-structuralism. Let me recap that for you, because it really is extraordinarily important: Wherever you look, you'll see it enforcing intolerance in the name of tolerance. You'll see it suppressing freedom in the name of freedom. And you'll see it crushing diversity of opinion in the name of diversity. Goonswarm's mentality reminds me of the stereotypical bureaucrat who cannot function unless he can "find it in the manual". It is also worthy of note that Goonswarm wants to deploy enormous resources in a war of attrition against helpless citizens. Personally, I don't want that. Personally, I prefer freedom. If you also prefer freedom, then you should be working with me to serve on the side of Truth. On balance, shiftless pests like Goonswarm are all alike. Still, the irony is that Goonswarm's most disdainful politics are also its most myopic. As the French say, "Les extremes se touchent." In closing, although this letter has been lengthy there are still a large number of comments about Goonswarm that I have had to leave aside. I didn't even begin to mention, for instance, that most of us maintain that Goonswarm is extremely viperine. Anyway, the important point is that Goonswarm, using every conceivable means for its purpose, is determined to sell otherwise perfectly reasonable people the idTe fixe that it is omnipotent.

That doesn't mean that goons are facist 100% of the time towards non-goons (further reffered to as "pubbies"), it merely means that goons do not place the same value and emphasis on "pubbie" values as other "pubbies" do.
Eve Online is the perfect example of such conflict, where the general public audience tends to take the game way too seriously. Such attitude provokes the majority of goon outbursts, since most of the goons don't believe into taking anything on the Internet seriously, especially the parts of it that deal with entertainment. Games are not meant to be taken seriously in real life, never mind the extent of fanaticism to which some games, like Eve or World of Warcraft has driven some people to. Such people deserve all the ridicule they get, since our entire community lives and breathes satire. Most of goon actions are motivated by a simple desire for this satire and comedy, in-game or out of it. The recent storm of horrible posts in CAOD is the perfect example of a huge joke, that went over the heads of the most "pubbies" here.
Before the Great Eve War, CAOD was dominated by a bunch of absolutely arrogant, power-tripping Band of Brothers posters who thought that wars are won with "kill/death ratios". They proceeded to use colorful phrases, like "industrial backbone" and "kill efficiency" to describe how they are utterly crushing their opposition, when in fact what was going on in the game was quite different compared to what was being posted here. The entire forum was their playground and virtually no one complained about that at the time. In fact, such ridiculous circle jerking was encouraged by the general "pubbie" population of CAOD. The very fact that the CAOD crowd is reacting very differently to the exact same trolling from goons now, abeit under a slightly different flavor, is the cause of much comedy among us. It is rare to see a community so hypocritical and so incredibly stuck up that they cant even take their own satire well.
We had a fantastic laugh at your expense, and we will continue to do so as long as you are going to provide us with this opportunity. This is the essence of what goons do in Eve - its so much fun to play this game because its absolutely packed with stupid people, who cause a lot of drama when the game doesn't go their way.
And we absolutely love it.
edit: warning - this thread may contain flashing lights and unfunny trolling
I guess you can look it it either way really.
Goons are saving everyone from caring too much about a game.
Goons are ruining a game that people here care about.
I guess it just depends who's side you're on.
Really I only hate you guys because I know you purposely exploit the game to get ahead in it, despite the fact that you have a bajillion members with which to win.
The "leaked" or whatever the **** it was eve-mail where your head honcho told everyone to hop in ibis's if they had to in order to crash the node.
You might think you're internet saviors, but I think most will agree that you are just ruining everyone else's fun by being do*che nozzles most, if not all of the time.
Whatever, you're right it is just a game. Still I don't think that should give goons, or anyone else, free license to ruin a game using varying levels of d*uchebaggitude as they see fit.

Atleast they make fun of the people that deserves it, mostly atleast.

I've never understood why people take pride in and enjoyment out of ruining someone elses game time. It's like blockers and spawn campers in your FPS of choice. Why? Just to **** someone else off.

Yeah, but the undeniable fact is that Goons take this game just as seriously as most people who they claim to oppose. It's evident from the forums, it's evident from in-game, from your tactics, etc. Whether it is because this "fight the power" thing is ultimately hypocritical and just show or because they've grown to love the game too, I don't know. Anyway, being such a huge group, it is a bit difficult to talk about the lot of Goons in such broad sweeps.

I've always had a secret crush on you GoGo.
As you say, trying to categorize a broad group of people is a fight you cannot win. It's the same with goons in eve, it's the same with SA members. Some are complete jerks and revel in what they think is the height of comedy, some don't care and some do. It's why posts like CaptainGordon's or the spam threads are so pathetic but without some attempt at uniformity or way to unite such a mishmash of idiots, everything would just fall apart.

Originally by: Illaria 1. The OP is very alien and ungoony. I expect him to be ridiculed on the GF board.
But for the sake of argumentation:
a.) SA community isn't equal to Goonfleet community. Just because the EvE Goons recruit themselves from SA doesn't mean SA adheres to the same values as Goonfleet. In fact somethingwaful is too big to make the case for homogeneous and definable SA values. Each sub forum there has developed it's own culture.
b.) Goons take the game much more seriously than most other alliances in this game. Just look at all their nerd rage.
c.) It's interesting that Goons explain again and again their obnoxious behavior with alleged previous behavior by BoB. For a organization that states again and again that they don't care about their public image, they sure make a lot of excuses.
In Bold made me LOL. Im'a take this one and use it in my Sig! To the op.. Keep in mind those are just your communities Views not facts. Just because people do things another way from your own doesnt make them wrong, just different. You in fact may not be a child but a large portion of "pubbies" view the way you act for the most part as childesh and annoying. So you can dislike us for your reasons and we will continue to dislike you for our own reasons, but that doesnt make either of us right or wrong... just different.

for the standard rank and file, yes, you log in, have fun, log out. but to claim, your alliance point is to just point and make fun of the whole game community is funny considering a good portion of your industrialist and sov managers defiantly have to take the game a little more serious to give you this proverbial playground

It's good that you don't have this problem anymore, amirite?

Captain Gordon that is the worst OP I've ever read on EVE-O and that's saying a lot. You should post less on EVE-O and work harder on getting your girlfriend into Goonfleet so we can all try to get in her e-pants.

Sorry Rise Fleet Commander but I'm not Black Ops. Like all pvp in eve people have to think there is a chance of winning to engage. I doubt your numbers as you were probably baiting.
You can mock Black Ops in caod all you want but that doesn't get you kills or help you maintain space. How's living in the basement working out for you?

some people enjoy immersion into game play that allows them to play seriously. the hypocrisy in your attempt to justify your actions by saying you're just trying to humble self-proclaimed elitists is mind boggling.
who are you to dictate what is 'right' and 'wrong' about playing a freaking game? just because you think its silly for some people to play a game seriously makes it so? give me a freaking break. i'm glad you get entertained by this, as it amounts to a circle-jerk among you and your allies alone. you're basically having a laugh at other peoples' expense. at least your motives are now firmly clarified publicly.
i used to be in awe at the level of believability this game afforded. sure, some aspects of the game don't parallel reality as we aren't exactly colonizing space IRL. but it came close enough to feel semi-believable.
you guys have come in here, a place you weren't invited to nor asked to stay, and started trying to turn the game upside down and inside out purely because you didn't like the way people played/thought/believed. sounds kind of selfish and childish to me.
truth of the matter is, if any of you tried to enter a town in the middle of south america, malaysia or the like you would be murdered for being so arrogant in someone elses' home. granted, eve is not anyones 'home' and anyone paying is welcome to play, but there is a certain amount of respect you give to an established community before you jump in and start playing. you guys came in and tried to force the game to turn 180 degrees and cater to a mentality you found entertaining.
this is the reason i don't respect any of you and i don't really care how any of you feel about it. as far as i'm concerned, you can take your elitist attitudes and your ideas about how people should act when playing games or using the internet and **** off.
you'll never change the way people feel about anything, including this that a lot of us play seriously by choice. it's the way we CHOOSE to play and eve has never persecuted anyone for it. the fact you idiots have gone through such great lengths, both in game and out and pushing the lines of legalities many times, shows beyond the shadow of a doubt that you ARE what you claimed you are rallying against, arrogance and hypocrisy.
so go ahead, recruit more grieving hacks and run everyone that doesn't feel like playing at the expense of others out of 0.0. i'm sure it will look good on a resume one day and give you and your buddies plenty to laugh about. those of us who saw eve as a unique game environment that truly had the flexibility to become (more or less) what we could dream up will be here long after you've moved on to your next self-fulfilling prophecy.
we may be the jokes to all of you, but rest assured.. you're the jokes to all of us. and no amount of spying, deceit, exploitation, social network spamming, word twisting and perversion of truth will ever change that. i just hope ccp wakes up one day and recognizes the value of loyal, paying subscribers for years means more to the overall goal of their project here than a bunch of radical idiots that have convinced themselves that they way they think is the only logical way to approach the internet.
have a nice life. can't wait until karma swings back around and smacks you in the back of the head. i won't even care to be around to laugh about it.

I am sure that some of those remaining GoonSwarm members will be rejoicing at having survived this long against us but I can only ask you were you have been recently.
Keep watching Goons, because we will.
We will be back, with gangs, with fleets, with BoB.

So the GS have turned the game upside down for you? You do realise ISS aren't neutral? There's nothing personal here I have always pirated ISS since I first started eve. So ISS has always been a joke to me.
However, I have one serious question for you. Why are you blaming CCP for the inability of ISS to maintain 0.0 space for themselves?

Originally by: Devian 666 However, I have one serious question for you. Why are you blaming CCP for the inability of ISS to maintain 0.0 space for themselves?
for a serious question, you'd kind of have at least TRY and read my post and relate said question to what i posted.
you're proving my point better than mitt. man, you guys really do propagandize yourselves. 0/10 for trolling.
Quote: i just hope ccp wakes up one day and recognizes the value of loyal, paying subscribers for years means more to the overall goal of their project here than a bunch of radical idiots that have convinced themselves that they way they think is the only logical way to approach the internet.
What do you propose that CCP do about GS? CCP provide a game for all subscribers to play but you are suggesting that CCP take some sort of in-game action against GS. You need to answer my question for this to be a meaningful discussion rather than a rant.

That's not taking direct action against GS, it is instead a general improvement to the game.

Welp, its like this.
There are goons, that's a fact. And they are SOMETHING, but I ain't quite figgered it all out yet, and I bet most of them ain't got it squared away either.
As far as the pets thing of RA, it all depends on what your definition of pet is.
To me, a pet is something furry, and this I happen to know is something that the goons utterly despise, even though we know there are a few closet furries hanging about, I have seen them hanging out with Siddy.
So, to sum it up, your post fails.

We don't have an industrial backbone instead we have an industrial crustacean. This industrial crustacean talks as well, which makes it a furry. Have you ever seen a furry crustacean that likes darkwave and industrial music?

Well thats odd.
Goons always seemed to be a bunch of paranoid alcoholics to me. EVE is a great community, there is no reason for you to behave so poorly to everyone.
Your apology for your behavior is silly, like a victim explaining to a bully why they are a victim. "It's not your fault you are a bully, it's my fault because I am a victim."
Irony and your type of randomness fell out of favor in the 60s. The socially inept of every generation seem to keep bringing this sort of obsolete trendoid humor back, ad nauseam.
Like so many buckets of paint tossed at canvas and called art, it is simply stupidity and laziness guised as genius.
THUS!
I encourage goons to make fun of themselves, your too full of yourselves and you take yourselves way too seriously.
It's just a game, not a method of social engineering. ...get over it.

That doesn't mean that goons are facist 100% of the time towards non-goons (further reffered to as "pubbies"), it merely means that goons do not place the same value and emphasis on "pubbie" values as other "pubbies" do.
Eve Online is the perfect example of such conflict, where the general public audience tends to take the game way too seriously. Such attitude provokes the majority of goon outbursts, since most of the goons don't believe into taking anything on the Internet seriously, especially the parts of it that deal with entertainment. Games are not meant to be taken seriously in real life, never mind the extent of fanaticism to which some games, like Eve or World of Warcraft has driven some people to. Such people deserve all the ridicule they get, since our entire community lives and breathes satire. Most of goon actions are motivated by a simple desire for this satire and comedy, in-game or out of it. The recent storm of horrible posts in CAOD is the perfect example of a huge joke, that went over the heads of the most "pubbies" here.
Before the Great Eve War, CAOD was dominated by a bunch of absolutely arrogant, power-tripping Band of Brothers posters who thought that wars are won with "kill/death ratios". They proceeded to use colorful phrases, like "industrial backbone" and "kill efficiency" to describe how they are utterly crushing their opposition, when in fact what was going on in the game was quite different compared to what was being posted here. The entire forum was their playground and virtually no one complained about that at the time. In fact, such ridiculous circle jerking was encouraged by the general "pubbie" population of CAOD. The very fact that the CAOD crowd is reacting very differently to the exact same trolling from goons now, abeit under a slightly different flavor, is the cause of much comedy among us. It is rare to see a community so hypocritical and so incredibly stuck up that they cant even take their own satire well.
We had a fantastic laugh at your expense, and we will continue to do so as long as you are going to provide us with this opportunity. This is the essence of what goons do in Eve - its so much fun to play this game because its absolutely packed with stupid people, who cause a lot of drama when the game doesn't go their way.
And we absolutely love it.

The links below is explanation enough about why goons act the way they do. They are Jerry's Kids, they need to be treated like Jerry's Kids and when others start playing like them then Jerry's kids will get frustrated because they cant get their way. The game will not be fun for anyone because only Jerry's Kids enjoy the kind of humor they enjoy.
So ***** open a cold one and watch Jerry's kids in all their hypocrisy, sarcasm and supposed wittiness, as they try to make everyone else accept who they are... .
If you are in goonswarm and you dont help Jerrys Kids act normal then your part of the goonswarm problem, simple as that.

Nice of the goons (or one at least) to try and explain things to us poor pubbies.
However, this leads to a couple of questions from a pubbie -
1) Why do the goons have a director appear on Eve TV? 2) How many goons turned up at the recent fan fest?
Surely the goons would not sanction such events if they didnt take the game seriously.
Maybe what started as a rebellion against those that take games too seriously, has in fact gone full circle and now the goons actually take the game as seriously as others, whilst psychologically insulating themselves by claiming they dont care about the game they continue to play.
One final point, for a group that doesnt care, they have certainly done some good in eve, the upper limits on alliance membership have been pushed up, as well as being a counter to the GBC steamroller.
As for the scale of the Goons influence, they may be one of the largest alliances in eve with approx 5000 members, but in reality they make up about 2-4% (with alts) of the subscription base.
With regard CCP censuring Goons, that would be almost impossible to do, as they would just reform with new accounts using a different alliance.
Personally i couldnt give a toss about the goons, BOB, I play the game for what it is - a game with pixelated spaceships, and make believe money.
I would suggest if the goons want to target a group that take the game too seriously they focus on the macro miners, isk farmers, macro missioners, those guys do take it seriously as they run it as a business, and so based on the OP should be prime targets for goons.

tl;dr version is:
Hey, look at me I'm an attention seeking failure at life that needs to qualify my behaviour on a game that I'm trying to make you believe that I don't care about.
Goons take this game more seriously than any alliance has ever done. That's not the sad fact though. The sad fact is that you believe it's stupid to take a game seriously. Games can be fun and taken seriously. It's not a hard concept to grasp.
Also note that if there aren't at least 5 threads about Goons on the first page of CAOD Goons will post threads about themselves until their quota is met.
You have become Bob. Congrats.

Eonov: I think the n00b thing was something perpetrated mostly by the goons themselves so that when they lose they pretend they are newbs but when they win they look like complete hero's.
The real facts are that they can mostly all fly BS and the only reason we didn't kill more was because they were ordered not too fly them through fear of losing them.
The only n00b thing about the goons is their lack of leadership, cohesion and real understanding of the finer points of eve, from both a warfare part and a respect part
yeah ive heard similar things before empyre and it'll do you about as good as it did dbp here
One thing y'all got to give credit to -DBP for, and that is, the posting polarized your members like a bottle of Viagra would do. Its akin to your hordes coming after BoB like we were a bunch of virgins.

Some words about a guy that dont know about games.
Games like MMOs needs time investment. That means you need time and work to achieve something. In Eve Online, this kind of time investment have more importance because when you loose something. You loose it. Period. So people whining about their loss, the nerfbat, and beeing agressive on forums isnt something you could smile of.
Basically, this game is also important in real life because time is real. Effort is real. So you can be sarcastic, you can laugh about people taking this game too seriously, but you just dont understand the way games works... and I mean "all" games. Some people play to win, maybe not you, but that's you, not everyone. There, you are the arrogant person, you insult me here because I'm not a goon, or because I take this game seriously because I'm investing a lot of time in it. I say : go you, dont post on forums that kind of ****. Go make fun of people elsewhere. You're a big piece of unrespecfull guy. òò

Hmm, looks like I must have missed the failed attempts at humour part.

Edited by: Ferocitana on 15/11/2007 16:53:53 goonfleet forums is more like Something Awful befour the "faggot" nerf to make something Awful more Public friendly. If you miss the old Something Awful, try goonfleet forums.
Please dont let that forum get public friendly nerfed too!
edit: what was this thread about again? i didnt read more then 2 sentances of the OP..

This terrible post:
Originally by: CaptainGordon Edited by: CaptainGordon on 14/11/2007 02:01:15 Edited by: CaptainGordon on 13/11/2007 22:04:48 Goons are members of the Something Awful community. They are an extremely tight-knit group which has stood the test of time. The entire purpose of this community is to make fun of stupid people on the Internet and all the stupid cliches that are born from the Internet's worst parts.
That doesn't mean that goons are facist 100% of the time towards non-goons (further reffered to as "pubbies"), it merely means that goons do not place the same value and emphasis on "pubbie" values as other "pubbies" do.
Eve Online is the perfect example of such conflict, where the general public audience tends to take the game way too seriously. Such attitude provokes the majority of goon outbursts, since most of the goons don't believe into taking anything on the Internet seriously, especially the parts of it that deal with entertainment. Games are not meant to be taken seriously in real life, never mind the extent of fanaticism to which some games, like Eve or World of Warcraft has driven some people to. Such people deserve all the ridicule they get, since our entire community lives and breathes satire. Most of goon actions are motivated by a simple desire for this satire and comedy, in-game or out of it. The recent storm of horrible posts in CAOD is the perfect example of a huge joke, that went over the heads of the most "pubbies" here.
Before the Great Eve War, CAOD was dominated by a bunch of absolutely arrogant, power-tripping Band of Brothers posters who thought that wars are won with "kill/death ratios". They proceeded to use colorful phrases, like "industrial backbone" and "kill efficiency" to describe how they are utterly crushing their opposition, when in fact what was going on in the game was quite different compared to what was being posted here. The entire forum was their playground and virtually no one complained about that at the time. In fact, such ridiculous circle jerking was encouraged by the general "pubbie" population of CAOD. The very fact that the CAOD crowd is reacting very differently to the exact same trolling from goons now, abeit under a slightly different flavor, is the cause of much comedy among us. It is rare to see a community so hypocritical and so incredibly stuck up that they cant even take their own satire well.
We had a fantastic laugh at your expense, and we will continue to do so as long as you are going to provide us with this opportunity. This is the essence of what goons do in Eve - its so much fun to play this game because its absolutely packed with stupid people, who cause a lot of drama when the game doesn't go their way.
And we absolutely love it.
edit: warning - this thread may contain flashing lights and unfunny trolling
