Variante von goonAlternative letter-case form of goon (“a member of the comedy web site Something Awful”).
The 90,000 registered forum users can pretty much depend on an instant Goon fraternity in almost whatever game they’re interested in. Thanks to a history of gaming exploits and the general scatologically angled humor of Something Awful, the Goons have a reputation as being a disruptive influence in many games.
Not all the message boards celebrate the griefers in their midst: Kyanka finds griefing lame, as do many Goons and /b/tards. Nor do the griefers themselves all get along. Patriotic Nigras, /b/tards all, look on the somewhat better-behaved Goon community—in particular the W-Hats, a Second Life group open only to registered Something Awful members—as a bunch of uptight sellouts.
Goons posted and discussed a growing assortment of Slender Man fan art, videos, and wiki entries they had found in other digital spaces. One Goon even claimed that someone in their offline life with no connection to Something Awful had—without prompting—told them all about the Slender Man.
