did you intentionally create a game in which there is one RUS powerblock with a series of pets (PL/NC./TEST/GOONS/et al) who will rush to the rescue of a single reinforced station while filling their wallets IRL via RMT? Or was it completely by accident?

OP has NFI.

WE made Eve what it is. CCP just gave us the space to do it in. (Like what I did there?)

EDIT. Then I read the OP's corp name. Explains everything really. Flacid? Indeed.

Yes, exactly. CCP is actually involved in a conspiracy, the main goal of which is to revive the old Soviet communist empire and crush all other nations. They used EVE as a simulator to determine how it would all play out.

EDIT: Because, as we all know, CCP really equals CCCP, they just forgot a C there.

EDIT2: Insert obligatory 'Comrade!'

That's a loaded question, similar to the classic: ''Does your mother know you're gay?''

YES: You are gay and you told here.
NO: You are gay and you didn't tell her.


(Not that there's anything wrong with being gay)

Fact is, if you're not RUS or a RUS pet, you're stuffed in this game. Time to crack down on RMT and bots CCP.

OK. I'll ask since no-one else is. What did you lose?

The Russian "block" didn't happen overnight. Neither did the western block. There's quite a bit of reading to do if you really want to get into how that came about. Mostly though the alliances were able to capitalize on several mechanics and so not-so-EULA compliant practices.

Bots and moon goo provided a fllod of money to those that could get it. Super capitals have been over powered or years but ZCCP just now got around to looking at this. Sov mechanics are terrible.

The thing is, there's a tipping point for in-game weaelth that permits unrestricted growth. Once you hit this then there's no limit to the size of the fllets that can be sent to fight even the smallest threat. Dozens of supercaps could be lost without blinking an eye. No small group in null or low sec can do anything about that so people stopped playing. Faced with invasion, they might shoot a bit but they just leave. There's no point to combat since the outcome is predetermined. Thus, null has died.

Those still in null are lashing out at high sec even though they are the cause of their problems. They have become everything they claimed to hate.

Is that the "PVP in EVE is consentual. When you log in, you consent."? Lol

I like to put the "sensual" in "non-consensual"

I also didn't know I'm a Russian pet now
