Went there the other day and it couldn't find anyone in channel to do a locate. Did it die out?

Just wondering.

I was there last week. Had to wait a little bit, but someone finally replied to me. Got my locate though. So, not sure how its doing.

It was never all that great/functional tbh... I imagine it was run by like two guys or something, and I'd imagine that you are one of them, and this topic is a shameless plug xD

It's a good idea though for a service, so free bump.

I use them alot and I mean alot.

To the point where some locates give me special discount for using them when they are online and at a locator.

Also remember that they don't just sit and wait at a locate for people to ask. They might be busy with something else or afk.

I stopped using them when they raised the fee. I would go 'broke' when using it dozens times a day. But it is a good service if you have no loc agent and need a quick check for a target.

I was online yesterday, but there was no customer (which is rare).
BLSHL is always providing high quality locators.

5 mill a locate? If you kill you're target you get at least that in loot plus the tears.

I thought it was fairly priced and used it to the point of running up 100 mill in a day sometimes.

It's a great service and a fair price imo

no more games... it's real this time!!!

If we do it ourselves it only costs 100K. For 5M I can run 50 locates myself. If I would spend 100M a day, that's 3B a month, I would go broke for sure. You know how many decs we can run for 3B a month Twisted

Good service, but overpriced. P

I discovered recruiting some free loading mission runners helps a lot with location agents ;)
