Does selling on contracts go around the goonfucker acl or no?

Not really. CCP doesn't really assign equivalent fee structures to contracts that they do for the market, so there's not really any penalty for the goonfucker acl to hook into.

I'll throw someone on it if there is doctrine contract fuckery going on, but that's actually pretty rare.

I mean, the timing of someone switching to just doing contracts AND not knowing they are on the goonfucker acl seems….. suspect. It’s like they are just big fat liars!

What a better way to kickstart the new year than getting scammed by :ccp: with their MCT megaoffer!! Glad I bought only 6 on an account where I need to use em because, although the plan was to send 4 of them to other accounts...

Hauling alts are very useful no matter what type of space you’re in, also scanners, also cynos. I got the platinum pack 40% off and so that’s what im doing with my 2 months of mct.

Or you could just skill farm, the only way you can actually turn those into isk.

you can actually inflate your scrote pretty safely with sterile saline, syringes, needles, and aseptic technique. its a niche kink iirc

the saline just slowly gets absorbed into your blood but in the meantime you got a big round smooth distended nutsack

is there still anything useful to be done with free accounts or nah

I very politely asked CCP support to transfer a few MCT tokens to another account once and they did.

I was also transferring a character between the two accounts, which might have gotten me over the line.

Any early game stuff in high or low you can do pretty well, but you will start to struggle if you go deeper into the game or in nullsec or wormhole space.

Probably your best option is faction warfare which is booming right now, you can get into it pretty well on your first day with the 1,000,000 sp from someone’s recruitment link.

they should have stopped at dreads & carriers. dreads were very much needed when they were put in to deal with the horrific deathstar pos that would delete a battleship every cycle of its guns.

supercaps and titans never needed to be added. the fact they could not see how many would get built is a really bad excuse.

Both, it’s very hard to play alpha outside of empire space. Tackle and target painter ships are certainly fine to use whilst you’re training ships up, but if they’re the only thing you can use often you will get bored fast. Other than them most doctrines are t2 based, but there are a few doctrines you could fly (even when you can fly them, it takes so long to train into them it’s quite boring.)

My recommendation is to go alpha until you feel you need to get omega, then do it.

Happy new year, Eve goon bros. I was evicted from my wormhole yesterday.. kind of. It was like a soft eviction. They came in and stood up two towers and cleared out some dead towers. They never shot my POS, but they wouldn't talk to me, and I figured the hole isn't big enough for all of us, so I evacuated while they were asleep. I'm looking for a new C4 to resume my quiet wormhole life.

You would be suprised how many other groups may be willing to co-habitate.
Twice I rented out PI and structure rights to smaller groups. Once I tired of those holes and moved on I simply sold them my structures.

They may have been open to it, but they had like 20 dudes. My brother and I were living in this C4 together and we were able to pretty casually farm the combat anoms in the C4 and clear the occasional good C3 that popped up. I don't really know how larger groups can share wormholes because it seems like there's not enough content to go around. I guess they spend a lot of time rolling holes, but I would hate to do that often.

I've created some more safespots through the Abyssal filament-method and I've got about a 50% success rate so far (with a low sample size). I imagine if you are are on the ball around DT with 3x alts each time you can create good safes pretty quickly.

I keep my ear to the ground for drama and I hear Warp To Me Incursions is taking action against The Ditanian Fleet for hiring gankers to target the other public incursions fleets. It’s interesting how incursions groups are relatively so well organized yet implode regularly.
