Well, as I recall another bunch of pubbies went on crying no harm done and then the Mitty himself admitted he had gone way too far with it.
He even stepped down himself because of it. yet his fanboi's make his appology look fake by keeping on saying it was nothing.

You are actually doing the opposite of what he wanted to achieve with his appology, but your head seems to be up your butt too far to being able to see that.
Mittens manned up and said he's sorry and took the consequences, it's the 10,058 fanboi's that still keep crying about it.

So grow some pubehairs and man up like Mittens did. Move on and plan something new for people ***** and moan about.

Monopoly -> High Prices -> Need More Money -> Buy More PLEX -> More CCP Profit

Am I right or is it not so simple?

Considering that you're one of those who constantly moans about Goonswarm and Mittens at every turn you should probably take your own advice.

Wait, wasn't Mitty later say its all some under-the-table interweb politics between CCP and god-knows-who?

Not that I have anything to complain about though, not in that position anyway.

If you nerfed tech just because a group of people took the inituative then this would no longer be a sandbox.


Good luck to those Basement dwelliing, mountain dew drinking, cry themselves to sleep everynight idiots and everything they stand for.

They have generated more publicity for this game than anyone else for a long long time


Ccp did nerf titans cuz someone had too many of them, this wouldn't be any different Bear

Ok while I don't disagree with the sentiment above I think it needs to be more evenly applied. The concept that a player works hard does the required research, operations takes accurate risks and now makes a large amount of money off it justifies the earning of the money is on that I think all players should apply when asking if something should be complained about/nerfed.

That being said, when the Incursion patch first came out it was not uncommon to see entire fleets whiped out while running a Vangard site, as time progressed and people put the time and effort into these events to come up with good fittings for running them to the degree that incursions became safer, then eventually a basic cash cow; the same people arguing to leave Tech alone are the same ones now saying "Hey we worked for this"

I find this interesting as someone that agrees with the incursions nerfs, because it shows how the sandbox argument only works in circumstances were people want it to apply.

Now before you dredge up your tired trolls and arguments about risk vs reward I understand exactly what the point and re-read the previous statement. I am just saying it reminds me of my children when they argue over a DS game,, "It's mine you can't have it, I want to play his, other child, "It's mine he can't have it" the entire time arguing that each others arguments are invalid.

Just hunting for some consistancy in whining I guess.

Who, exactly, are saying "leave tech alone"?

I'm thinking he means the people who are saying "Dont replace the Tech bottleneck with another bottleneck."

Just FYI, because people seem to be forgetting this. We want Tech to be fixed, we've wanted it fixed for a long, long time. We just don't want it to be fixed in another stupid, easily exploitable way. This has always been our stance.

You want tech to be redistributed?

That would mean that the goons would simply take all the new tech moons in the other regions.

Want the amount of tech needed for your T2 production to be reduced?

The goons would find the next big thing and the same would happen to that substance.


Going to ask dad to fix a problem you can't find a way to solve through your own actions is exactly how a child behaves, now the question must be asked, how old are you really?

In a sandbox there's always a bigger kid.
In EVE there's always a bigger nerd.
Not a nerd? Geek with RL? Not able to play 23.5/7?
That's brutal virtual reality. Get over it.

You. And every Goon on this thread.

You want an unfair advantage that even you can't defend.

So you lie and lie and lie.

The idea that Mittani would have removed Tech Moons is a joke.

Seems reasonable.


NAPTRAINS != effort

Beside rules were biased - technetium redistribution.
Why tech inst available across universe and then try again at winning.



Do you have any inkling of what it takes to organize a naptrain of that size?

You have to think about many different influences to keep your combat force effective.

Cyno routes, these are hard to setup and keep fueled if you can't keep sov or just don't want too, like in the case of a deployment/roadtrip.

Now let's look at logistics, fuel, ammunition, ships and fittings. hundreds of cyno jumps, billions and billions and billions of isk has to be spent. Not to mention the hours that many ceo's, directors, and logistics oriented pvpers have to spend jumping and hauling all of that crap.

Keeping bittervets™ Interested in actually fighting the war your alliance leaders have decided is necessary, like controlling technitium.

Thats just normal subcap stuff, now if we look at having to produce super caps for the alliance to fight its war with, you have even greater issues of security and viability of the campaign as a whole.

Since super caps are incredibly vulnerable while in the cooker, you also have to be ready to defend your home at a moments notice.

that is a short list, and i'm probably forgetting a huge amount of things.

We know because CCP Soundwave will make sure Tec wont be redistrbuted. He knows Goons would have 0 chance of holding all the Tec at that point Blink
