Nice blog post from one of IT's alliance corps on why he thinks IT failcascaded, provides some good info on the northern coalition, goonswarm and others as well.

There's been a recent interview on RPS with The Mittani, CEO of Goonfleet here:

I don't play EVE and probably never will but like most people here I find the stories coming out of it fascinating.

I think this thread deserves a bump every once in a while.

I just re-read this thread a couple weeks ago since I lurk the other EVE thread often. This conflict is always fascinating to read.

That was a good read.

I remember back in 2004/5-ish I read a PC Gamer article about something Goon Swarm did, I think they put a mole inside a huge corp which eventually resorted to the corp being dismantled. It was a 4 page article and sounded amazing.

I don't play EVE so I have no idea.

Someone linked this. I had to register just to say that it's pretty accurate for someone who wasn't involved relating it. I was in goonswarm the whole time (I still am when I get the urge to play eve again for a while) and it is quite nostalgic to read.

The best part is, you dont have to pay for it, you can pay for it with in game money, and we here at TL can help you do that.

Nice OP, took a while to read though. :p EVE needs to stop having so many fun threads about it, trying to get me to play...

Is there a good summary of when IT took back the area? (Or some other huge action?)

Holy shit - I started reading this 30 minutes before class and I'm still not done >.<

Sounds like a very fun and drama filled time for eve!

Also, this is by far the largest OP I have ever seen on TL ever.

It probably is one of the largest to be honest.
I read this when it was first posted and I still haven't seen a longer OP yet.

IT took it back when Goonswarm forgot to pay a bill.

Yes, the irony.

(I may be wrong.)
