and 12000 of them are spies
75
That's the secret of success, make the enemies fight for you, cause they don't wanna out themselves.
74
that means about 18000 of the imperium are slacking.
24
Fine, I'll make an awoxing spy

Be sure to register with the black hand.

I mean realistically I always estimated about 600 actual humans were active members you could count on for a fight, the rest were just alts, spies, krab alts for people who don’t even live in nullsec etc.
11
One thing about Horde is they have pretty good response fleets when you get ganked
26
Unless you're boson ratting in staging and just say "help" in plusten
23
This was 2 years ago when I was with them. I was with them for 2 months so I guess things have changed a lot since then.

He is talking about a recent loss of a ratting titan.

'ex-staging'

Congrats you are 68/% of average logged in numbers . On any given day if you are all logged in.
19
That's pretty impressive, to be honest.
18
How so
-1†
A lot of people are afk, but that's still a helluva number. Compared to guilds in other games, EVE is something else.
28
Don't forget about their thousand or so bot miners.

Oh come on lol

Couldn't imagine. Definitely would turn off blink in corp lol
9
both alliance and corp chat dont get used at all
17
The Alliance and Corp mails get annoying though.
3
No we don’t use them either
1
Alliance mail is solely used for announcements. Corp mails can't be regulated unfortunately (CCPlease) and you get a KF/TEST/whatever troll now and then. But since you can simply ignore corp mails and delete them unread every now and then it's not that bad.
Edit: Using corp mail is not allowed and people will be kicked for using it. So, it's not like you are missing out on anything important by not reading them.
1
About half are Goon spys LOL
8
That few?
1
rest are test spais
6
Not true, I'm not test, and definitly not a goon :D
1
That’s exactly what a goon spai would say.
3
Oh hello Gobbins!
2
I am a horde member that just joined a couple pf weeks ago. Am i lucky?
5
No, it is very easy to get in. That said welcome and we are glad to have you.

Amazing name
1
atleast 9000 of these are spys
4
There's a purge coming. Don't look Nidia in the eye.
3
nidia can’t purge people lmao
1
no, but his hand is on the shoulder of the person with the gun. Which is moderately more terrifying.

Imagine all these Goon Alts
2
Back in my day we maxxed out at 140 characters
2
That's a lot of Goon spies
1
11600 alts, 500 players, 500 Spais!! And Gobbens.
1
It should ready. “You have 12600 spy’s and 1 member.”
0
Or “you have 12600 alts and 1 member”

Would be cool if they stopped killing EVE. The big alliances are all huge whine-bags that bemoan any positive change the game could get and force CCP to keep things most advantageous for them.
As well as being home to the biggest populations of Botters that flood the economy with cheap mats and drive inflation ever onward.
Soon there won't be a universe left for you guys to rule if this keeps up.

It’s gone on like this for a few years so I think it’s fine
2
I agree, but I don’t really thing horde is the biggest cause of this by a long shot.
1
I don't blame any one person or group, either. Pandemic Horde are making content the best way they know how and, for them and their members, it's probably fun.
But EVE is a big place and in order for it to survive, these massive groups of players need to stop oppressing everybody who isn't with them. They need to relax, step back and look at what their behavior is causing across New Eden, not just that they're secure and happy in their territory. Pandemic, specifically, with it's numbers should be Curating New Eden, making sure it's the best it possibly could be for everybody else. That's what I would be attemption with that power, anyways, in addition to whatever needs be doing.
And most of all, it's a game. EVE needs to be fun for more than just the 20k people it has, otherwise it won't be around forever. We need casual players to fill space and to provide content, otherwise only the big Alliances will be doing the big fun stuff of EVE and keeping it to themselves.
This isn't Pandemic Horde Online. Or Goonswarm Online. It's EVE Online and we need to start sharing it better.

Would you like some cheese with your whine?

Haha, good one! I'd love some!

They routinely hit this number, then have a purge and accept more
I assume they just go by last logged in time. Back when I was a Corp CEO that's what I did. That said my Corp maxed out at about 130 chars.
That was always the plan when we started horde, yes. And is how I lost my day one horde directors - I went inactive for a year & stopped contributing, and they got purged, totally rightfully. For all the memes, horde is reasonably well run internally.
You lost your day-one Horde characters because they were spies.
My spies with director roles :pepehands:
HABIT #1
Nidia already has a superiority complex don’t feed him
*feeds Nidia's "complex" a steak*
