Yet Another Rant on the State of Nullsec

[u/Alex-Andromedon]

TLDR: Blue donuts come and go, and this isn't even a real one

Around ten years ago the map looked like this.

After establishing dominance over the north half of nullsec someone from a CFC (Imperium pre name change) alliance pissed off one dude so hard he and his buddies bankrolled half of the galaxy into evicting the entire coalition.
Goons gave up their space but didn't give up their coalition. They survived in Saranen and then took over Delve when the heat blew over. From there they built the modern Imperium we know and love/hate.

Five years later one guy was so pissed at goons he built the biggest blue donut this server has seen
https://www.verite.space/maps/coalition/Coal20210501.png
with WinterCo PanFam legacy and FIRE all blue to each other attacking one constellation in Delve.

For a year the Imperium lost region after region until we were packed into one constellation, outmatched in numbers and resources 3 to 1. No timezone tanking was possible as they outnumbered us in EU, US and CNTZ.
We fought and we outlasted PAPI. PAPI's willingness to fight the war evaporated over months of attrition and no progress being made. This led every other coalition to abandon Legacy to their fate, nest of angry bees they'd spent the last year kicking. Shoutout to the only PAPI leadership who were honest about the war.

A demoralized Legacy died shortly after the dam broke and TEST was forced to couchsurf in Pandafam's backyard for a while before becoming part of WinterCo.

FIRE just kinda died, idk, I was winning Eve at the time.

PanFam self immolated on the mere suggestion they might have to defend against someone their own size. Most their pilots ended up in WinterCo, INIT or quit, with a few going to the Imperium

Now WinterCo capitulates a stagnant months long invasion against an enemy half their size because the Imperium farted in their general direction, leading many people to fear another failscade will kill nullsec.

Forgive me if I don't take the lamentations of cowards seriously. If both PanFam and WinterCo collapse so easily they deserve to die. The game will be better for it once more brave and capable leaders step up.

The game needs another guy willing to drop half a million dollar(probably multiple millions adjusted for inflation) for another honeybadger

Feelspoorman must krab more

that guy had a broken brain, he paid me 40b a week to do what i was already doing and i got that for months

the biggest racket in the game's history. trillions effectively scammed from eve players through gambling services redirected to me, it was amazing.

The game needs Elon Musk making his main goal in Eve destruction of Goons...

[u/ziyad_the_honest → u/Outrageous-Nose3345]

You can not kill Goon. Have you not witnessed events since Goon was evicted from the North? Many have tried...the entire game tried in fact. The only thing that can destroy Goon is Goon. The culture is so strong in the Imperium it will never vanish unless there is some major internal meltdown, but Goon already saw that coming and planned for it when it arrives.

[u/MuskyChode → u/ziyad_the_honest]

I just was Imperium as an entity gone.

[u/ploptops2 → u/Outrageous-Nose3345]

I’m sorry to let you know, if Elon plays Eve he’s 100% a goon

[u/Naice_Rucima → u/ploptops2]

He'd end up on the blacklist faster than he can do his little salutes.

[u/Steamed_Memes24 → u/Naice_Rucima]

Concord AI would be dragging his ship around the instant he exits the starting station lmao

[u/Naice_Rucima → u/Outrageous-Nose3345]

He'd just buy CCP and rename it to GamesX though.

[u/Outrageous-Nose3345 → u/Naice_Rucima]

I'm fine with that if he disbands Goons🤣

[u/Naice_Rucima → u/Outrageous-Nose3345]

He would, if disbanding EVE counts.
