Don’t listen to anything a character with “LSG” in their name has to say. They are a disposable hate–eve-alt of someone who …hates eve and trolls hard until their character gets banned and then they just start using another one. goonwaffe (the lead corp in goonswarm federation which in turn is the lead alliance in imperium coalition) is the one that recruits primarily from the members of the Something Awful (SA) forum community. SA members pay ten dollars to join and call themselves “goons”. SA members play many games, not just eve. ---

OP, never give up, never surrender. Maybe this might help you: > [@How to find the corp that is right for you](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/how-to-find-the-corp-that-is-right-for-you/4451): > > One of the most frequent questions I see on the Eve forums is “How do you know if a corporation is good or not?” To help each person come to their own answer, I have written a “step by step guide” on how you can make your search for the right corporation (“corp”) easier. Ideally this will help you avoid a long employment history filled with corps you joined and left because you only found out that they didn’t “fit” you after you joined them. I will be the first to admit that I do not have much … Sorry you got problemed with joining goons…but really many might say “well, serves you right for joining goons in the first place”. In somewhat begrudging fairness to goons, a lot of their recruiting process is something of a test in itself. They want to see who will do research, who might be a complainer and/or drama queen, who is clever (or devious perhaps depending on your point of view) Goons do incubate new players (karmafleet) and actually do quite a bit for the game, but joining one of the component corps of goonswarm federation might be something best done with caution at least. ---

> [@NotYour\_Merciful](#): > > My question is this: does the Eve Online I’m imagining actually exist? Probably not. It’s not the best game in the world but I do find it fun to play. If there’s an aspect of EVE you like then try finding a smaller group of players to do it with. My corp is less than 100 people and they mostly just fly around trying to have a good time. Nobody really takes anything serious. EVE is just a game. With EVE’s lax stance on trolling, harassment, and scamming you will run into people who love nothing more than to ruin someone’s day. Really these people exist in every game (and life) so it’s best just to ignore them if possible and move on. No reason to quit because you had a bad experience with a couple jerks. ---

> [@NotYour\_Merciful](#): > > Should I cancel my subscription and move onto another game or what? Yes. And charge it back, too. lol The game in your head is not the game on Tranquility. We are not your friends. You are prey, and it sounds like not even good prey. You don’t seem to have put up much of a struggle. If you can be happy just quitting, little rabbit, then hop away fast as your little feet can carry you. The only other way for you to win this is to become a fox. And that is a long process probably. Weak individuals do not belong on this server and will not enjoy the game. You are doing the right thing, but you feel victimized and determined to prove you can hack it. Well, buster, you can’t hack it, because of the kind of person that you are. Are you really willing to change that just for a stupid game? And even if you ARE willing, what makes you think you CAN change? ---

> [@Mayhaw\_Morgan](#): > > We are not your friends. You are prey As harsh as you post might sound, this is 100% true. Eve is not meant for the faint of heart. You need to learn to survive in NE, not just play around in it and THAT is what makes EVE so good. I hope the OP tries again but also he needs to realize the mistakes he made and not to make them again. ---

> [@Runa\_Yamaguchi](#): > > like you have been crying that same line for over 15 years now so The only person who cried and begged for the last 15 years was the CCP CEO. He always ran to investors and asked for more and more VC. Who will he begg when he run out money again? 🤣 Or he will lay off people again and again until he remains last one in the CCP.
