Anyway, I suspect that most of the eve-o community is rather surprised to see that we are actually quite literate and intelligent, thank you, now that we're allowed to post and aren't represented by idiotic alt-posters. Admittedly, we have a politically incorrect sense of humor and are HORRIBLE AWFUL NEWBIES who dare attack 'established alliances', but we're hardly the fools eve-o has been blithely making us out to be for the past year.
I think what amazes some of us is that as you are to a large degree quite literate, intelligent and not the fools you have blithely been made out to be you continue to allow Remedial to lead the corporation. My guys would lynch me and rightly so if I had those kind of temper tantrums. |

Didnt read whole thread, didnt read whole log...but what i understude (i might be wrong) some ppl dont like Remm cause of the way he acted as dictator or something.
I dont get you guys. What kind of game you think you playing? Bridge with old grannies?
There is no democracy....only dictators with better or lesser skills with convincing their pilots that decision was made thanks to their opinion (others are only leaders untill first danger come close by)
This game need more ppl like Remm...plenty of polite and boring diplomats anyway all over space
He ovbiusly has some kind of WW2 tick, his ingame picture is Adolf ****** and tbh, he acts on his forums like him.
Same for some other goon alts out here, talking about euthanism and other stuff.
Its just disgusting.
Disgusting or not...this game is role play game. Plenty of space for all. And since it is a game it should be opened for all type of roles, IMO. When you consider that majority of pilots is above 18 and 21, then their mind should be strong enough for not taking some things granted (as some things that in RL are considered bad, this is a game where "evil" is and should be part of it). If you are disgust with somebody in game, go out, kill it and get down with it/him/her.
Internal behaviour (inside corp orm alliance) is different. Pilots have option to step out from corp alliance if the dont feel comfort with...or overthrow leadership.
But in the end this is a game...and "barbarian" sort of leadeship and acting is only "+" for game in global.
If you read something on local that you dont feel comfort with..close local or dont read. If you get evemail with crap writen all over...petition it.
But telling someone how they should act and play this game is not something positive for game its self. This is only my opinion however, and i dont have problems with RL issue brought in game where i have control to handle with such
And about tactics or insults...no point to argue about it. You have input and output. Everything in between is variaty of ppl and their aproach. Final results count however, rest is just for forum whoring
It is disgusting that man who is beloved by houndres of goons is teaking a portrait of Adolf ****** a man who ordered to kill milions ppl in Europe, who ordered to kill some ppl from my owm family, who ordered to kill few millions ppl from my country. HOW SHOULD I RESPECT SUCH PLAYER!? Its sick that someone is taking so much care about a COMPUTER GAME. Its sick when someone is posting a racist words on those forums (gues who). This game is for fun but i see that theres a such man as Remedial who is crosing the line. Lets have fun, lets fight each other, lets play the game but there are some limits. Edit : I dont mind whole GS organisation and its idea/tactic etc but i would be happy if there was someone other in thir ceo place. |

This is probably for two reasons: 1. We have more contact with Remedial than eve-o does, and thus know him better, flaws included, and most of us like him despite those flaws. Also, the issues which most of eve-o has with Remedial (his total, absolute lack of political correctness) isn't seen as a bad thing by goons; if anything, we exalt it. 2. GoonSwarm is larger than any one man. Some people in GS don't like Rem, but they love their fellow bees. It's not all about one individual, it's about goons working together with goons (and their friends) in EVE to accomplish concrete goals. In any organization of 2500 people, you'll like some people, and you'll dislike others. You may love flying with a certain FC, though you may dislike the CEO; you may love your CEO and hate his directors. Personally, I think it trivializes the efforts of the average bee to try to turn every discussion of the Swarm into a discussion of Remedial. As I mentioned earlier in the thread, the leak of our internal discussions shows nothing new; directors and CEOs frequently fight and those fights get intense. Especially if half the directorate are attorneys, and attorneys aren't known for backing down, ever. |

tl;dr fighting outnumbered at your own POS is not likely to win you or any other alliance many brownie points
The reason we're bringing it up is the fact we're being accused of "blobbing" and lag exploits at battles where we've been outnumbered, rather than a desire for brownie points, though I do think our fleet commanders did an excellent job of maximizing the effects of the POS's support.
Oh, sure, your POS defence strategies have been pretty good. Even given complaints about grid issues etc which could just be put down to very smart positioning, you've acquitted yourselves very well there. I just don't feel that POS defense fights are really relevant to discussions about fighting outnumbered, because it seems slightly unfair to ignore the starbase. But eh, ymmv.
This makes no sense. It's like saying the Russians didn't really win the Battle for Moscow because they were better adapted to fighting in the cold weather than the Germans. That sucks for the Germans, but they weren't adequately fit to fight in those conditions and they lost because of it. Just because the Russians had the advantage doesn't take anything less away from their victory against what many perceived as a greater opponent. EDIT: This is my GS main. |

big rant about Remedial, certain mustachioed dictators
Goon humor is not for everyone, and will often make the heads of non-goons explode with outrage and incomprehension. I made an analogy earlier in this thread about meth-addicted 'special needs' children being shoved into a bus, handed firearms, and being brainwashed into launching themselves bodily at our foes. I suppose that I am a mean and sadistic person for finding the mental image hysterically amusing, but I do. But hey, some people think 'The Family Circus' is funny. Takes all kinds, neh? |

All I have to say about this whole thing (aside from that slight killboard comment, which wasn't bad in and of itself in the slightest, but apparently between posting it and being here at work caused lots of smack and caused forum moderators to delete all of the posts pertaining to it) is that I have been enjoying myself immensely during the engagement.
I have enjoyed how we have endured against all odds and against all criticisms, but I know the fight is far from over. I would almost be disappointed to see D2 just roll over and leave, but at least I know that's not going to happen.
Bring on the fight guys, I still have ships to lose.

I agree, it does trivialise it - and until he changes his attitude and adjusts it, at least in eve and on these forums, so that WE can put up with it, you can rest assured that we will continue to do so. It takes many men to be a success, it takes one man to Profanity Edited Out -Abdalion it up - and that one man, in your case, is the man in charge - and he does so regularly. |

Very, very few people other than Remedial would've ever had the megalomania and vision (really a fine line between the two) to even attempt to take over 0.0 space with swarms of newbies barely out of their trial accounts, much less to actually succeed in the attempt. You take the bad with the good. We respect Remedial for his vision, leadership, and tactical expertise, and then we call him a [censored] in private when he Profanity Edited Out -Abdalion up. Nobody's perfect, but there would never have been a Goonfleet in the first place without Remedial's leadership. |

Then it is a good thing that we run our organization such that we goons enjoy it, rather than focusing on attempting to garner the acceptance of the eve-o public community. We don't recruit from the public, and never have; if we did, we wouldn't be able to behave like goons in an environment of our own choosing. Also, you don't have to worry about dealing with Remedial on the forums behaving in a fashion that offends you; he got permabanned. ^_^ |

About a photo
Seems to me, Remedial is a despotic ruler demanding and receiving the adoration of countless followers, prone to irrational out-burst but possessing a disturbing charisma enabling him to send his minions to their certain deaths again and again to achive victory… Surely you can see the similarities here, lets not get too uptight over what is essentially self depreciating humor on his part. <Insert joke about him overruling his generals, overextending his forces and getting his ass kicked here> =) |

I want to echo this for emphasis. Fundamentally, GoonSwarm is about carving a niche and home in Eve for our shared community. Remedial has been the driving force behind making that ideal a reality, but we respect him for his drive in pursuit of that ideal, rather than the reverse. He does screw up sometimes, but so does everyone else. Fundamentally, though, he's working for the same goal that every other GoonSwarm member is in Eve -- carving out a home for Goons -- and that's why we respect and follow him. |

I think a good sterotype of goons would be: Intelligent Arrogant Twisted sense of humor Enjoy the irony of acting like idiots Remedial is a good leader because following him blindly lets us act out stereotypes three and four. Remedial is also a good leader because his instability is matched by his brilliance. |

/Signed and couldnt agree more The world of politices evolves and has many diff flavours , every one follows the trend that seems fit to his or her points of ideas and way to play , if eve was any diff then it would have been borign as hell and 0 wars sicne every one would be following one polciy no matter what is . Some policies can lead to victory and soem can lead to defeat so the result will be the only judge not what ppl think of it , if remdial's way gets Goon to be a power house and for exampel defeat another major power house then i think many ppl will be bittign their toungues but if he fails they will all howl around him liek starving wolves. |

The best part of all this is that during the last month - ie. when Goonswarm was kicking D2 ass left, right and centre - Remedial wasn't in charge. It was Hoegaarden.
Hoegaarden has now been kicked out of Goonswarm in order to preserve Remedial. So what we are all asking is, what's more important to Goonswarm, success or Remedial? So far everyone's chosen Remedial. Good times for D2 on the horizon. |

If you follow the exact events of the war, our "success option" is attributed firmly to the many hardworking members of GS proper. But it is funny how you're sitting at the tail end of your thread saying "hey, guys, guys, pay attention to me... Drama. Drama drama. Drahmahhhhh! Listen to me, c'mon guys! Drama?" |

You are attempting to draw an answer out of one of our members that would support your argument, which seems to be aimed at hatred towards our CEO. Arguing this with you would be pointless as it would only fuel your agenda. I will simply make a statement on my view of how the alliance views this issue, as contrary as that may be. GoonSwarm does not think that ditching our leader would lead to success. GoonSwarm does not think that keeping our leader would lead to failure. Individual pilots might think differently; but, we are the sum of our collective will and ambition and not just the political opinions of our pilots. Our success or failure will be determined on the battlefields ahead, not in the backrooms of alliance or corporate discussion. These opinions are my own, formulated by my own observations and not necessarily the view of my corporation or alliance. edit: fixed a typo |

To be fair, Hoegaarden would never have been in a position to lead us into Cloud Ring without Remedial's vision and effort to build this corporation from the ground up. I don't think you'll find many bees who won't agree that Hoegaarden did a great job, but I also seriously doubt you'll find any that doesn't believe Rem is a tactical genius and more than capable of leading us to the promised land. |
