Brisc along with Mittani are the most powerful people in the world of EVE. Why are you aggroing Brisk? The Imperium has the best strategists, economists, managers, we generate the best content, we have great people who understand the balance of the game. Who do you think is more versed in game balance? The person who fled the ship in hysterics a few years ago, or the person who still plays with us and tries to make the world of EVE a better place? The economy of EVE is a complex mechanism that not everyone can understand. You can’t just come and say that 2018 was good and I only want what it was then. It doesn't work like that. People can't sit on a super ship, farm harbor, and not buy omega for $ and get trillions of ISK. This leads to total chaos. Our respected CEOs of the Imperium know what they are doing and there is no need to argue. Do you really believe that Brisc wishes someone bad or pursues personal ambitions? No. He tries his best for all of us. It is only thanks to our leaders that we feel great in this game and get the best content thanks to our leaders.

Is buying Plex or buying a starter pack the best value?

The best value is giving me supers in exchange for a charitable donation so that we can lose them in the most hilarious fashion in Providence.

Be aware that the starter packs go on a big discount a couple of times a year and the platinum one goes for half price. Look at the plex and SP bundles separately first.

If you're a new player or account the 5 dollar Starter Pack is insanely good value. Outside sales, no other pack touches it. The Silver Pack is also pretty good.

Most of the packs generally beat buying straight PLEX by about 20% value, but which pack is better depends a lot on how old your character is (which determines how valuable SP are to you). That said, sales are so common that it's probably best not to buy any of the packs other than the two I listed above unless you're getting a sale.

my personal advice would be to get one of the cheapo starter packs and then just buy omega/500 Plex a month, whichever happens to be cheaper atm, and then when black Friday comes they put the packs on 50% off and suddenly they are completely unbeatable value.

Right on, thanks for the advice. Found that I had some plex in game from way back. Thought they were 1 plex a month but guess that's changed.

Yeah, a while ago they converted everyone's plex at a ratio of 1 old plex = 500 new plex, so they could turn it into a currency for cosmetics.

Halfway through, I went to fix us both a coke float.
By the time I got back, he'd gone insane.
Plus, he'd left the gate open and there was evil everywhere.

I don't think CCP cares but all the big null blocs (including gsf) have such low barriers of entry and have been that way for so long that it's pretty much impossible now

Played Eve today. Pinged a corp fleet and ended up in provi with some wide eyed goons looking for a rumble. Instead we honked at the geese and had a guided tour from a paladin.

0 kills for 0 losses and a new relationship between goon and goon is by far my most successful fleet yet

Today I jumped a Minokawa into the middle of a Fortizar. Not top-middle. Not bottom-middle. Middle-middle.

We also killed something and lost a few ships but the fax-on-fort action was definitely the highlight.

While a grain platform can be used for corn, a specialized corn head is ordinarily used instead.
