Congrats to the guy with his own fleet. He doesn't have to worry about much unless he has multiple personalities telling each other over comms to shut up.


That shouldn't necessarily be a problem, either, though.

I find that the voices in my head make for far better convo than real people in the vast majority of cases.

But then, I'm INTJ--we're...different. (And we will rule you, one day, you just don't know it yet.)

It's jealous, not "jealus." Don't butcher the English language if you expect to be taken seriously.

Not that this could be, even if it reached the most scintillating apex of pulchritudinous erudition!

(^^That's irony, type: self-deprecative-reversal-as-mockery--a sense of humour helps as well!)

Because it simply isn't true: See, some of us understand that there is more to EVE than grinding ISK, but we also see that all this mindless ISK-grinding at next to no risk, with no commensurate ISK-sinks leads to inflation, which hurts everyone in the near-term, but especially hurts newer/younger players, which also hurts everyone--not least of all CCP--in the medium/longer term.

Unless any of your elitist carebear boys' clubs are picking up newbies for you ub3r1337 bling-barge fleets?

Not that I've seen, at least anytime recently.

You lot need to get over yourselves, and expand your worm's-eye-view of our little virtua-verse...It will do everyone a lot of good, and you might find other aspects of same that you like, too.

I still fail to see what is wrong with him using Isboxer and playing the game it allows him to do. I commend him for training all those characters. At least he isn't botting so he's already got at least 50 billion worth of characters that are legitimately transferable.

Of course the odds of getting that particular mission and that particular award from it are so astronomical that the idiocy of your post has a better chance of becoming a sentient life form that triggers a new big bang seeding a new universe made entirely of Jello Pudding.

You asked me once, what was in Room 101. I told you that you knew the answer already. Everyone knows it. The thing that is in Room 101 is the worst thing in the world.

This argument has been beaten to death already thanks to the stats CCP Diagoras has been posting to his twitter account: In average, all incursion runners receive about twice as much isk as lvl 4 runners but only 1/3 of the isk received by bounties (ratting/plex).


Disingenuous, mate (please don't insult my intelligence, thank you):

That's an extra 30-odd percent of new ISK created that wasn't there prior to the Incursion-farming craze,


Your arguments blaming isk inflation to incursions are based in nothing more than pure speculation while mine are based in FACTS, cold hard numbers straight from CCP databases.

Also, there is no 30% new isk as you state, some of us were running lvl 4 missions in Tengus before incursions were introduced so we were making isk anyways... I'll give you 15% ?

And back to the OP, there is no way somebody can fly 10 tengus simultaneously in a vanguard with no logi support and not lose a couple on each site, you need between 4 and 6 large reppers with logi bonuses on you to tank being primaried by a vanguard wave. Anybody claiming you can pilot 10 accounts into a vanguard site is either lying or trolling.

This guy is doing it wrong.

He needs to add another 10 accounts and double his isk per hour ratio.

Eve is about Capital ships, WiS, Boobs, PI and Isk!

Please....

Anything short of an Apple factory style sweat shop of isk-farmers is doing it wrong and deserves a quick and decisive uninstall.

Totally off topic but I've played a few other games where people cry and moan about RnG and I keep thinking, they need to try EVE. 6 years of ratting, -9.97 with Serpentis and I've gotten 2 Daredevil BPCs. One of those I stole from a bots Shadow wreck. The RnG in this game has to be the most outrageous going.

The thing is that level 4 missions are unlimited, while incursion sites are not. The ISK flow can be controlled easily by changing the rate at which sites spawn.

this is eve ideal customer. Get a life "angry" brother! Its no different from any other mmo that has multiple characters
Besides, hav you thought about the amount of real money he must have spent to get 10 alts all the way to tengu pilot? That not only takes long but also the skills for the shields would take a while to get. This is without counting the amount real money he must have spent to get that beast or beasts of computers to run many alts and all the hardware that goes with it! He probably has one of those 10 monitos setup XD. He obviously is rich

Have you ever seen the Tengus subsystems?

Tengu Defensive - Adaptive Shielding

5% bonus to all shield resistances per level
10% bonus to shield transporter effectiveness per level

At level 5, with 10 Tengus RRing each other tha'ts enough to tank a Vanguard EZMODE. Hell if my DPS predictions on the Assault sites its possible with 12 Tengus RRing each other to tank it. So you actually know nothing. Desist from posting.
