How do you make team killing part of the game? Isn't that against the TOS?

Yes it is and if I run across them I'll report them as I do all tk'ers I see

and before anyone jumps in and says "dezgra this" or "surat that" this isn't an RP server. Until you have one you play by the same rules and ToS as everyone else. Calling yourself an "honorable clan" and pointing fingers while calling other "goons" doesn't make your TKing any less goonish or somehow noble and acceptable

The most important metagame right now is the Like / Post ratio on the forums.

Indeed it is justice according to the "eye for an eye" law the RP clans go by. And any goon who denies goons don't do everything within their power to ruin a game for someone ells hasn't been a goon long enough. There are honorable people who play fair within the ranks but they arnt the ones people remember. If you can't handle that stigma then switch groups because that will follow you everywhere you go.

Is it against the rules to TK? Yes
Do I care if it happens to goons? No

This is personal views only from a former eve online player who fought against and for the goons but never have been a goon. As a result I know goons better than most self proclaimed goons.

Also in typical goon fashion recorded from enemy TS and shown to the world. :)

Want to know what I mean? Check out an old video I made from when I fought with the goons. http://m.youtube.com...h?v=UBWnAo63cH8

The Goons are a minor annoyance. Just report them, purge them from your ranks, and toss them into the dustbin of history where they belong. They don't even deserve acknowledgment of their existence.

TKing is not acceptable. Why risk being banned because someone else is being a *********? Just report them and let PGI handle the banning

I'm thinking of starting a merc corp for elite forum posters. Must have at least 1000 posts and a LPR of 1.5 and above. We won't actually play the game, of course. But we will tell PGI how to fix it.

Well, your LPR is a bit low, but I may make you an honorary member because of your quote below.

Liking your own posts is the forum equivalent of killing the disconnected mech at base.

Goons appealing to other's for sympathy is a joke.

The whole "we're not organized therefore we cannot be held responsible" excuse is a joke.

Whether deserved or not (totally deserved) the Goons have a reputation. If you don't want that reputation to reflect on you don't be a part of that group.



TKing is against the Terms of Service and is a banable offense. However, I wholly support anyone TKing goons as long as they are willing to face the consequences.

Dirty clanners using the "Goon" boogeyman to justify their dirty clanner behavior and in the process breaking the ToS and ruining matches for people. Looks like a "Takes one to know one" scenario to me.

Nothing to see here. :)

So... They didn't have 24 players to do a trial drop? The Law did this for a inner group tourney. 2:48 Most awesome question!
