Nah, just means you're bored. We all have those phases. It's why /b/ exists.

I think we should petition the devs to include Clan Gif Poster.

I LOVE the idea of the Goonswarm flocking to MWO for a number of reasons -
More players equals more revenue which equals more stability and more content in the future.
Their notoriety is well founded in a game designed for griefers. As was stated in another post the very core of Eve is about beating people up and taking their stuff. They found absolutely genius methods of manipulating exploits in the game....and will likely be some of the first to find exploits in this game. From a Dev standpoint just makes it easier to find exploits that need fixing LOL
There are likely players who like the idea of blasting some Goons on a more level playing ground! 12 v 12 is always going to be 12 v 12 and not 142 v 1...so I'm anxious to see how long they will remain if they are not allowed to gang rape newbs one at a time.

I'm reading my own post here and it is really sounding like a HATE Goons response but it's actually the exact opposite. While I'm not a goon nor have any desire to ever be I applaud their ingenuity and teamwork. If they are able to adapt to MWO and a more skill based game remains to be seen but should be very interesting to watch.

They only possible downfalls I see are 1) someone wanting to blast some Goons finding themselves in the same faction or 2) the Devs giving into their requests to make MWO more "Eve-like"

You could have repeated "Hastur" three times for similar effect, but that'd have been Lovecraftian.

You should watch it, I remember it being a funny movie! Then again, that is possibly pure nostalgia speaking.

That said, you HAVE at least seen ROBOT JOX right? :)

I know man, most kids in highschool these days haven't even seen the original Star Wars movies.

I have Robot Jox laying around, it's great. Anyone here who hasn't seen it should GET OUT.

It's really odd watching Hillary Swank as the hero in Robo Jox before she was in Million dollar baby.

See World of Tanks where we are still the top clan in a 15 v 15 game.

If it was so easy to be a proper Capellan. Using Goons and then throwing them off into some Periphery far to the north. B)

Of course there is, but the point still stands. The current "Michael Bay"ing of movies as an appeal to the "dudebro" lowest common denominator is pretty far reaching today. Things like the original trilogy would never hit screens in the forms they did, today.

Don't worry that comment wasn't really aimed at you Serevn. Robot Jox is strongly reccomended though, so bad its good.
