It was a typo. Its burn Rens this year. Dodixie gets it next year, CCP wanted farms and fields so this is EVE crop rotation in action.

Because i don't know exact number. And no one knows. But Lord Zim said that he KNOWS and we discuss it.

Why don't they just burn all major trade hubs at the same time? That would be fun to watch Blink

And with that in mind....trading and hauling at Amarr VIII will be the low risk option.


Yeah, not covering all the bases tends to be an event just for the sake of ego.

Oh, you'll PvE, you have zero choice.

You'll even feed the rats golden cheese and give them belly rubs and bubble baths.

Why?

You're an addict.

So, get in line hiver, and get with the program.

How many characters are in nullsec? How many are active in nullsec at any given time? How many of those are doing PVE as opposed to PVP? What's that, "less than 99%"? Why yes, yes it is.

When the money dries up they have to find new entertainment.

I hope it's from cannibalizing their own. Twisted

I wouldn't call it "loving embrace". if you love someone you wouldn't let anybody hurt them. and concord only respond AFTER you hurt someone. they never prevent it P

It cost us 20b/month to pay out Hulkageddon bounties

At the time we had 1tn/month in income from tech alone

Parents who coddle their children to the point where they never scrape their knee, end up with wussy kids.

Concord doesn't coddle its children to the point where they can't scrape their knees.

That was then, this is now - get it rolling. Seriously.

I want to see just how much impact the crimewatch changes would have and without such a major event, we won't really know if it's working or the threat just makes "PvP'ers" into cowards because they might get loss mails from messing with civilian types.

So push to get the show rolling... Exchangeable killrights, bounties that collect across dozens of losses...

Will it actually work if put under pressure or is it just a deterrent that scares the cowards into *NOT* trying such stuff for fear of lossmails?

EDIT: No I'm not asking to be told they aren't afraid. Prove it by running the event again - after these changes are in. Without proof, it's just "local smack talk" claims.

Are you trying to insinuate that you believe crimewatch 2.0 would actually act as a higher deterrence to a hypothetical burn jita if it was run today compared to the first burn jita?

You do realize that the reason crimewatch's mechanics work the way they do was to try to stop freighters etc from getting ganked because it would be economically less feasible due to 3rd party interference, and not to actually prevent burn jitas, right?
