250B is space middle class only in the sense of a middle class old dude who did everything right planning for retirement like maxing out his employer's matching, roths, and just saving a lot and is now able to enjoy that.

I spent most of my eve career with less than 1B liquid ISK and maybe 2 or 3B in assets. Now I have a bit more in assets and recently sold ~30b worth of skillpoints from an old unused character. I was finally feeling rich and now I realize I'm still dirty poor.

I have 54m, which doesn't seem too bad for a 10 day old character, I think.

I last played back in '08 with goons when we were moving into Delve but gave my accounts to squad members and haven't been able to recover them, so I started a new trial.

Speaking of my old accounts I googled one of the character names (the one that's in PL now, Naomi Ashikaga) and apparently there was some sort of homegrown involving it on GF.com that showed up in a public wiki page, got to see some titties. One of the better things playing EVE has done for me.

Sure, I agree that right now the incentives aren't there. What CCP plan to do to resolve that issue is beyond me because I don't work on the design team, though they seem to think the incentives right now are fine which I disagree with. I think CCP making Nullsec regions have exclusive assets to farm, like how WHs only get sleeper stuff iirc, would be a good step. Especially if its for the faction capitals they're working on as well as the pirate implants. Make those conquerable nullsec exclusive drops, and that's one way to make people want to fight over the resources/control the land.

I also think catering towards the people who don't want to log in and sit around for hours on end for a 10 minute fight isn't as bad of a thing as people make it out to be. I don't think it's some ~elite pvper~ mentality to want to be able to log into the game, and be able to go out and find PVP rather easily. Prior to the war people in CFC/Imperium were complaining about having to go 20 jumps just to find people to fight, where as in other areas it was less (excluding Drone Regions). I disagree with people like Chessur who think there should be instanced PVP arenas, since that goes against the spirit of EVE but I also think it's absurd that people think its a bad thing for CCP to work on making the players who don't have hours to spend on a singular fleet at a time be able to log in and frag nerds. The stuff Darius' guys are doing now is pretty much what I'm referring to in thinking that CCP should encourage that stuff. They're in a relatively decent area in terms of activity (both PVE & PVP) and they can find fights rather easily. Sure its not a massive battle to end all battles but for a variety of reasons CCP have chosen that those things aren't necessarily what they want to have happening.


I sort of feel like its cheating to use Querious as an example as that's a thunderdome with NIPs regarding sov structures.

This is a lot of words about nullsec politics and game balance that I largely agree with. It's just a shame it's coming so disingenuously from a group that insists on dropping a ball of supers on something as small as a loving 150 man cerb fleet and then posting the very next day about how "PvP is hard to find under the current model."

*you're

Rape caging super towers is very nearly a complete waste of time, over the last 5-6 years and at least a good dozen rapecages I've seen exactly one super die in such a setup. GSF could cascade, you could blue up the rest of Eve for all time and spend the next several years popping Adderall for 48 hour hellcamp marathon vigils like the sad autists you are -- you're still not catching poo poo because people are either going to DT trick their poo poo out, clear bubbles and wait for you to snooze, or remain logged off until it's safe.

Line members that don't have trillions in assets from 5+ years of farming with dozens of carriers/ishtars can continue rat in the space we still have. Failing or in addition to that, they can continue to engage in the myriad of exciting PVE opportunities your ankle hugging blues have claimed as reasons they didn't really need sov when we chain evicted virtually all of them over the last several years.

Boat and Asher are farming your pets like a cash crop daily, the reddit entosis slaves are going to get tired of being farmed and the implicit promise that by joining the PL entosis slave camp your lazy bittervets would carry them not being fulfilled and gently caress back off somewhere they can maybe, one day, be more than a meatshield with upvotes and entosis links. Then we're going to move onto the next weakest link.

this is correct -- even though my super isn't in nullsec ATM, i've just let the account lapse and will re-up that account when it's safe

I do not, nor plant to ever, own a super so you complaining about my personal opinions because the space guild I hang with use a ship I don't ever use is sort of dumb.

quote:

FAT has fallen, VC-V2 has fallen, 5-N has fallen. The final battle for FAT was supposed to be epic, and at russian primetime, today, got faulted by Evil Thug blowing up his own fleet with a doomsday.

No resistance has been seen after this. Sov has fallen, station is in BoB hands, sov will switch to BoB after tomorrows downtime.

Next please.
