PVP in this game isn't consensual, so you are always at risk of getting got, no matter where you are

but yes you can focus on PVE and not actively go out and cause trouble if that's what floats your boat

it's basically like industry now, you plop all of the reactions in a refinery, install refine jobs, reactions get spit out when the job is done. much less effort, but lower margins.

Goons escaped from certain destruction through laziness of the groups planning their extermination, and much like letting one cockroach survive out of a nest of cockroaches, they're even bigger than before, and have in fact won EVE forever unless the game does a hard reset. But, even if you did a hard reset, goons are spergy enough and have enough established knowledge base and out of game infrastructure they would have a head and shoulders lead over any other group in the game.

The margins are crap, I wouldn't bother with reactions unless you have 500b isk and you literally can't invest in anything else at that scale.

Actually reactions are really great and profitable. Would you like to buy some reaction formula blueprints to get you started?

Oddly enough though something like Forex can be legally done. Look at that ice tea company that changed their names to Blockchain Ice Tea and sold got like 500% increase in their stock value for it.

Yeah and now the stock is worth like pennies. It was hilarious when they did it though because it was like rich idiots were just looking at stock tickers going CTRL+F "Blockchain" and then hitting the BUY button in whatever their broker application is, or screaming at their investor peon to BUY BUY BUY.

Basically looking up anything that will violate the commodities exchange act is a good way to get ideas on how to manipulate eve markets.

yes, it has a user-definable reaction and manufacturing system for system cost indices, takes into account all job costs and what the alliance has set the corp fees to, as well as import/export costs

here's the configuration info:


it defaults to 1DQ1-A, the worst possible case in the entire galaxy

there have been huge improvements in how fleet reimbursement is done over the years thanks to atrum

back in like 2012 it was all just manually clicking killboard links in the reimbursement thread and by 2016 when i quit it was all but automated and i was competing with some turbosperg who had a script to scrape up a chunk of requests every so often
