How else are birds to communicate effectively? You can't see movement of wings and heads from far away, but a properly placed "SQUAAAAAWK!" allows communication across long distances. Combined with modern high-tech telecom gear of the future of the 1980's, and it makes coordination remarkably simple.

Why "Squawk?"

I seriously addressed this on page one.

A counter question:

Why can't you read threads?

New open beta, same old goons.

For those just joining us or those who can't get into the original Ask A Goon thread to check, I represent a small circle of opposition to goonswarm and their anti-community, pro-griefing ways. Last month my sources within the Word of Lowtax were able to leak a "promotion chart" indicating exactly how goony a new recruit must be in order to rise within the ranks. Now, we have gone one step farther - we have now intercepted a high-level goon command-branch communication from the Mittani's office directly. We have taken the precaution of blacking out nearly all identifying material in the following screenshot in order to protect our sources, but have left enough of the UI and the logo in the top corner to confirm that this is really from the Word of Lowtax's private message board. I don't think I'll need to hold your hand and point out to you exactly why the goon activities detailed in this memo are banworthy. For reference, at the end of this post, I'm including the originally-leaked promotion chart.

Godspeed, fellow anti-goons. If the information in this memo is accurate, we are in for some dark times.

You can't control everything. Not in the inner sphere, not on the internet. We will resist.

Looks like the Goon secrets have been leaked and now they're all going to be banned.

It was nice knowing you guys.

Oh lordy. Heaven help us they have posted something concerning the word of lowtax on the internet. Let us all pause and take a gander at this document from the sources of someone with the name Flubber. Oh nos we are doomed.

Really why so serious.

Welp.

What is the point of even having OPSEC when crap like this happens. Out of date info anyway. :colbert:

[Harabec Weathers]

Damnit, this is gonna effect my promotion to Ptarmigan, isn't it?

[John Glenn]

Ok, then, I have a question. Do we just give up and cry in the corner? Or do we cry in some other part of the house?

Not sure if I'm being trolled or the blatant sarcasm of my post has been overlooked again.

Why does this keep happening?

[Melthir]

You are not being trolled you made a statement not a question.

[Reverend]

Atleast they don't know that Mittani is just the shadow puppet leader.... I mean uhh... Darnit.. Anders shoot someone in the face real quick.

[John Glenn]

We knew this day might come. Though we hoped and prayed it would never happen, it has. Operation Binge and Purge is now in effect. All J4Gs and newbirds must be killed. I'm sorry for all the commanders who have gotten attached, but you knew what you were getting into when you made the rank of Quail.

P.S. Has anybody told Walter yet?
