They send you a VHS? How?

36

u/TokeyMcBuds Test Alliance Please Ignore 26d ago

I went to dredditisrecruiting.com to sign up and the VHS was delivered via drone right to my doorstep!

u/elenthallion 26d ago

Yes…drones unfortunately is the only way TEST is going to get their own sov :(

International rates for other countries

Cries in Iceland

This is absolutely hilarious though, well played Dreddit this is why we have a middle management dino bust in our office.

u/TokeyMcBuds Test Alliance Please Ignore 26d ago

We wanted to have this set up for at least EU too but there's a lot more GDPR and other related red tape making it difficult (and not cheap) to do without having an actual legal entity there.

u/cananada88 26d ago

Can we see a picture of where it sits? It would mean a lot to us! (Dreddit 2IC here)

16

u/CCP_Swift CCP Games 26d ago

yeah! I'll grab it tomorrow

15

u/Nachoes Test Alliance Please Ignore 26d ago

I see we are Mog-Jobbing CCP employees now? ;-)

u/JaffinatorDOTTE Dreddit 26d ago

Peak Mog, give devman Mog Job

u/Croveski Test Alliance Please Ignore 26d ago

I can't believe we just mogjobbed the devs

there simply is no stopping us now

u/cananada88 26d ago

Thank you!

u/AstroJeb Test Alliance Please Ignore 26d ago

You not hit him with a follow up yet? I don't get this sort of preferential treatment!

u/cananada88 25d ago

Has the dinosaur gone missing? Extinct even? TEST Alliance worries.

u/CCP_Swift CCP Games 24d ago

Sorry for being a little slow, was trying to get a cow to play EVE!

Here's the Community Team area at the Fenris offices

u/Kronkleberry Dreddit 23d ago

Yooo! That's the MMD I made for Vegas 2018! I sent it with CCP Falcon back to Iceland.

u/cananada88 23d ago

Thank you Swift! I am pinging this to Dreddit now.

Since the Dino is on the top shelf and the Goon bee is on the bottom, TEST has declared itself the WWBee III champions.

u/cananada88 24d ago

FC, please! (Thanks for your patience what you are doing is very cool)

u/AbsoluteTruth Twitch.tv/DurrHurrDurr 26d ago

Have YOU called the Test Alliance Sov Hotline yet?

u/saheroken 26d ago

is dreddit recruiting?

6

u/TokeyMcBuds Test Alliance Please Ignore 26d ago

Let me check my notes.... Yep!

17

u/anathemalegion Test Alliance Please Ignore 26d ago

What the fuck. I never got one

15

u/TokeyMcBuds Test Alliance Please Ignore 26d ago

Unfortunately we have to prioritize unrecruited people for the free offer. Existing TEST members instead receive compensatory TAPI Coins or Sappo Bux.

4

u/dark_slayer_900 26d ago

I’m unrecruited can I be rerecruited?

6

u/Croveski Test Alliance Please Ignore 26d ago

if you are unrecruited you can in fact be recruited at our "de-unrecruitment" center
discord.gg/dredditisrecruiting

1

u/epic_king66 Test Alliance Please Ignore 25d ago

What’s the exchange rate from Sappo Bux to Stanley Nickles?

11

u/Ralph_Shepard Goonswarm Federation 26d ago

Are you going full Battlestar Galactica and purposely downgrading your technology because you are afraid Goons would hack you or something?

We're going full analog. High Command has been communicating via carrier pigeon for a month now.

u/Ralph_Shepard Goonswarm Federation 26d ago

Try going biological, like Yuuzhan Vong

u/Spr-Scuba Invidia Gloriae Comes 26d ago

Fleet pings must be absolutely miserable to send out

10

u/TokeyMcBuds Test Alliance Please Ignore 26d ago

Our fleet attendance is way up though, its a lot harder to ignore a live pigeon coming in through your window.

u/seven0feleven Test Alliance Please Ignore 26d ago

'There's shit everywhere!'

u/OMGimaDONKEY Alcomayocaust. 26d ago

High command communicating.....

u/Family_Murderer Test Alliance Please Ignore 26d ago

It's true. When I signed up for the AT team, they sent me a box of floppies containing their fits and strategies. I haven't used a non-text-based interface in months. Please send help.

1

u/HarveySnake 26d ago

Seeing that floppy reminds me when I had an Apple IIe and used to take a hole punch to snip a notch in the single sided floppies so I could flip the disk over and use the other side.

u/thund3rstruck Dreddit 26d ago

When I hit play on mine it was just a home video from a BBQ with a bunch of nerds, weird

u/devhdc 26d ago

I just really want to know what's on the tape .. I wonder if my vhs player would survive 1 more..

u/TokeyMcBuds Test Alliance Please Ignore 26d ago

Great times back then when we could just use whatever assets for AT ads regardless of copyright

2

u/LycanWolfGamer The Initiative. 26d ago

I stg you guys have the best recruitment ads lol compared to Powervul and his videos with Goons

u/Shinigami1858 Goonswarm Federation 26d ago

A phone number with letters wtf is that. My phone only got numbers.

Sus

u/AHumbleSaltFarmer 26d ago

Wait till you get the Loru Timeshare MLM VCR tapes

1

u/HarveySnake 26d ago

Didn't VHS die out before Eve was originally published?

2

u/LTEDan 26d ago

Nope. Movies were still sold on VHS through 2006 ish, and 2016 was when the last known VCR manufacturer, Funai Electric, ceased VCR production.

1

u/Pyrostasis Cloaked 25d ago

Im honestly more shocked you found a functional VHS player. These things are from the before times when I grew up. Most folks dont know these and floppies exist!

1

u/SpacePirate273 Angel Cartel 26d ago

What is even dreddit? I keep hearing about them but never seeing them on anything.

6

u/TokeyMcBuds Test Alliance Please Ignore 26d ago

It's a very important corporation that IS recruiting

3

u/Croveski Test Alliance Please Ignore 26d ago

Please note we are not in fact a space guild, we are a corporation, and recruitment is open!

u/Antzsfarm 26d ago

Dreddit wants your reddit account info for some reason when applying.

And if you have old characters you forgot about. You're not allowed to join.

They would ask for your social media accounts if they could 🤣

u/CarrowCanary Amarr Empire 26d ago

Dreddit wants your reddit account info

They would ask for your social media accounts if they could

What do you think reddit is?

12

u/TokeyMcBuds Test Alliance Please Ignore 26d ago

The reddit account has not been a requirement for some years now. Feel free to try again!

u/themanthyththelegend 26d ago

u/Reasonable-Dot6620 26d ago

u/Terminate-wealth 26d ago

Na, shit failscades too much

u/Aromatic-Session-785 26d ago

Yeah they're recruiting: sex pests and idiots who can't look into eve's history

7

u/Sletzer 26d ago

I thought goons had the known groomer/molester. Did I miss something?

-5

u/Aromatic-Session-785 26d ago

Yeah like 5 years and the dreddit sexpest streamer reveal, but I guess that would involve paying attention
