Yeowch... I wouldn't want to come back to that.

 Yeah I heard about that this morning in game, I heard something over a super carrier being lost too.

well, much as i dislike the goons and am not too sorry they've come a cropper, i do kind of feel sorry for him, coming back to face all that must have been pretty devastating..  still, considering the way goons operate,  something like that was always bound to occur at some point. Be interesting to see how they recover from it all..

Hel was bounced out of pos shields due to Goons being dissolved, ship was happily dissolved by those who heard and were waiting.

One great thing about EVE is, just when you think not much is ever going to change, things change dramatically to the balance of power in 0.0.

Great game.

Eve, the only game that doesnt have scripted storylines that games with scripted storylines wish they had

Someone should warn star trek online that goons are coming, theres going to be a few ragequits im sure.

Agreed.

I don't have a ton of experience with the game, but lately I've been getting pretty pumped up by some of the stuff I have read or had relayed to me.

I've been an avid reader over at Eve-Pirate for a very, very long time. The stories some players have to tell are absolutely amazing in terms of just how solid this game really is, one of the only remaining true sandboxes available.

Very tempted to buy a six month sub and go hard....

Just do it. Sooner or later (hopefully sooner) CCP will fix the terrible lag problem again, and then shit will really kick off in 0.0

Start training up now, get some PvP practice in, then maybe learn to fly a covops as a scout (not too demanding on the SP requirements), plus a battlecruiser for ratting (easy) and you could be part of it within a few weeks.

if you listen real carefully, you can hear delve burning, thousands of killmails, thousands of people must be flooding into those regions now. Probablly not as many as when BoB died since NC is tied up atm, but damn thats alot of space to just go away in 1 day. http://dl1.eve-files.com/media/corp/Verite/20100203EE.png

could not happen a larger group of fucktards.

I look forward to watching the political map over the next few weeks.

The problem is it seems like it's always the same story: Giant megacorp holds lots of 0.0 space. Someone high up in the corp steals everything he can and disbands everyone after he's done. 

The game would be much cooler if these alliances actually went down due to being overthrown in combat even internal combat....not some disgruntled guy deciding he wants to loot his own corp. While it's great that Eve allows you lots of freedom, they should allow you to setup your alliance in such a way to prevent one person from destroying everything with a few clicks. Same story is getting old. I would rather massive battles than another story about a single eveonline douchebag screwing people over.

Scandal will always grab more headlines then a story about an honorable fight. There are regular news updates about fighting in various regions, but something like this grabs people's attention just due to the scope and drama. The effects are instant versus a long war that may drag on for a while.

Interstellar Correspondents and CORPS both relay information about what is happening at all levels of gameplay in EVE Online. A recap of the majority of it is in each month's newsletter.

well he got 1.5 tril isk to comfort himself..... I'm sure he'll be ok.

Guess this should be a lesson about throwing massive amounts of hate at the ceo.

EVE got off lightly compared with what we have in store for STO.

 It's a shame goons are effectively out of the game. They provided some of most entertaining content this game has ever seen.

And what's left now? IT Alliance, the most boring and pretentious dullards you could ever meet. Eve's golden age is now over imo.
