That's a personal referal link, if you get omega or whatever from their storefront I get poo poo once. Even if you don't though, you get 1m SP to put where ever you want which is really nice when you just start out. I usually spend it on getting Stiletto or Ares trained but hey - the Skill Menu is your oyster.

I need 18 more to get the Marshal skin and I'm not gonna lie, I'd definitely like to sit tethered in a Recruitment marked Marshal while I work on apps.

I legit miss TradeWars and Galactic Empire bad enough that I occasionally fire up zMUD and connect to random BBSes to see if they have them running. If there were a way for me to get GE to run as a standalone like they got TW to do I'd almost be willing to pay some server farm to host the poo poo.

I would be okay with this if you could destroy npc stations, too. Because if yoyuwant to push a chaos narrative then go for it. Let big NPC battles happen like the Caldari Prime one. gently caress it. That poo poo is cool. A Jita battle would be 20x more miserable bigger than B-R and would make the news for sure.

I logged in yesterday just in time to save one of my old citadels and asset safety everything. I already lost one with a bunch of lovely mostly unresearched module bpos and a few researched bpos for duplicating. I lost all my datacores. It was a loss but more of an inconvenience as I already mostly abandoned everything and consolidated to Keepstars like 1dq, and I definitely have the wealth to replace it.

And to be honest I ain’t even mad. I guess I just would have preferred to have more of a grace period or something.

It was just lovely because evaccing out of system would require me to sub up to use a JF, which I didn’t think was worth the time and money, and it definitely feels more like a ‘get subs up in a cheap way and make headlines’ move than an honest gameplay change.

I subbed up anyway just because I haven’t played in 3 years and it is summer and am just looking for something different.

If only it wasnt AIDS to redo my UI and Overview and Neocom and filters and relearn the region and Jump Bridge network, etc. after a fresh install. :negative:

yep i just killed my first two public citadels in the rear end end of nowhere and one dropped 13b and the other 6b of just tons of poo poo

and these are random ones in the rear end end of nowhere

got two more potential targets in 12 hours so we'll see what those drop

I most definitely got an email from ccp about the asset safety change, where I proceeded to burst out laughing thoroughly and then sent it to my goon friends who also used to play eve, prompting a 50/50 mix of guffaws and "what's a citadel"

if they sent 10 emails stating WARNING!!! YOUR poo poo IS ABOUT TO BE STOLEN IMMEDIATE ACTION REQUIRED to all the people who had poo poo in citadels it'd be okay, but i'd rather they just put everything currently in citadels into asset safety with 0 cost to redeem to anywhere in system

but then again i'm not a CCP dev, to the detriment of all eve players

If it is going to crash and burn within the next 2 years anyways, I would prefer that they slit its throat in the most objectionable manner possible.

I'd start playing EVE every day if they let player alliances blow up NPC star gates and stations. Burn Jita for real, now that would be some epic tears.

15 minute gate bash results in 2 hours of being offline. There's no way to keep the system shut down forever, but you can definitely disrupt traffic for a while.

turn stargates into permanent jump bridges that can lock onto any system and finally pull the plug on what is nullsec non-consensual pvp

No, Warhammer 40k. Get rid of jump gates and only large capital ships may travel between systems. Most players are stuck in a single solar system, unless they ask for the help of a might capital pilot.

I have suggested this exact thing and with other modifications like pinpointing areas in a system multiple times and it was met with ridicule so I await the rest of the thread to dogpile on this idea :colbert:

As probably the owner of that.

Without a doubt.

No.

Yes.

(unless you were in the Fortizar in E3OI that got unanchored a while ago or if you're in the other one in MJXW that still exists, then you're good)

I never got into BRE but definitely hung out in places that had it. majorbbs.com was bought by one of the old ISVs and has been acquiring rights to distribute a ton of the old games. This is going to end up with me buying BBS software and setting up a Win98 machine to put on the network, I just know it.
