It is a good thing I didn't miss this post or I wouldn't even have known we have a technetium cartel! Go us! It was a good thing you posted or CCP might have never even noticed.

Also, apparently defending vast swathes of internet space is considered passive income. I never even realized.

Seems reasonable.


You control most of Null Sec?

No?

Then why do you get so much money?

Somebody place a lot of Tech II BPOs..... I mean Tech Moons..... in your area?

How nice for you.

Funny enough, the Tech Moon rebalance took place while we were still in Delve.

Edit: So I guess technically yes, CCP did put a lot of tech moons in our area. We just didn't know we would end up there a year later.

And this broken mechanic has not been changed in how many years?

Eve subscribers began plummeting and they still refused to change it.

The developers seem quite committed to you having a lot of money from PASSIVE INCOME.

Maybe they should have fixed that instead of wasting time with datacores.

I can't imagine why they didn't.

Well I suppose that is why they are working on a good system to replace it then.

The Tech bottleneck happened in Late 2009, we lost Delve shortly after that, and chilled in Syndicate. After that we crashed with our friends TCF in Dek and worked with the NC until they fell apart, then took control of Dek. Honestly, none of that was really planned in order for us to get control of all that sweet, sweet Tech. It just sort of fell into our laps as we did our thing.

We've known that the Tech bottleneck was going to be a problem, and that it wouldn't take much for a monopoly on Technetium to happen. In fact, that was one of our original arguments against it. CCP didn't listen to our advice and now look where we are at.

It's been broken for around 2 1/2 years.

It's what happens when the one person who wanted and had the power to change it, gets removed from his chair.

You're blind if you don't see how creating this cartel will make it worth changing.

This "broken mechanic" was put into place in late 2009, after a few months of the entire playerbase which was in the know telling CCP it was making a huge mistake.

Wait, what? You're trying to tell us "the eve subscribers" are unsubscribing due to us having lots of tech? My, that's interesting.

You know, paranoia's a hell of a disease. You should get some drugs to fix that for you.

The best way to get something nerfed is to be obnoxious about using the hell out of it.

Like our super rifters, for example ...

Greetings capsuleer Tassik,

I am not familiar with the detailed operation of null security and what happens there; but to harvest from a moon are they not required to hold the space, control it and protect it against all who would take it from them? Are there not alliance level negotiations, deals being brokered and so forth that keeps diplomats busy and employed?

So to be blunt.

What the **** is so passive about it?

And if it were passive, why don't you just saunter up and grab one for yourself? It should be easy if it was "passive income", right?

No regard for you,

Yes, he was an innocent bystander. There was absolutely no reason as why he was removed in the first place.

Greetings capsuleer Zim,

So ... in essence you are saying it is even easier for capsuleer Tassik to capture a moon all for himself? He doesn't even need to hold the space to use it?

Incredible.

I am looking forward to him explaining how his rich source of "passive" income is paying off for him.

Depends on what you put in the word "control". He must "control" the space while his POS is being set up, and he must "control" the space when it's being reinforced or (more likely) right after it comes out of reinforced. We're not talking about hard mechanical control (like in the dominion suck system ... err, I mean sov system), but a much more fluid, and much more time-limited, system control through a very time-specific superiority of firepower.
