There is no such thing as too many wormholes

Let their warm embrace spread throughout eve.

Never mind your highsec wardecs, your lowsec piracy and your nullbear shenanigans; get to wormhole space.

No, but they sure are a nuisance when I feel like exploring instead of mining, PI, POS management, manufacturing, or ratting.

CODE is just a bunch of pirates; smart, organized pirates. It doesn't help to rage at them because that is exactly what they want. Dust yourself off and get back on your feet, you don't even have to talk to them.

It's called "exploration" for a reason.
The nuisance adds to the point.

What *you* want though is to "find" money, instead of "exploring" what's there to find!


You do this only for isk farming.



Good night.

Im having the same problem, except i keep finding these boring sites instead of wormholes!



What you are complaining about is basically

I wish wormholes would get moved into their own category that can be filtered like anomalies. So you have anomalies/signatures/wormholes.


I wholeheartedly agree. WH's have become the dog poo of the galactic sidewalk.

Actually one CAN pretty much rule out a lot of signatures by doing a wide initial scan and looking at signature strength.
Otherwise black holes with a gazillion signatures, would be full of self destructed scanner ships as they "just couldn't take and MORE" Lol

To OP, you do of course realise that BOB is calling on you to sacrifice your most expensive ship at the nearest wormhole?

Just Jump in, one of His acolytes will provide the service, reasonably painlessly.Cool

(Unless you take a KS to KS hole, and then it can just get "messy")

Bonus redemption points towards his everlasting protection from Local disappearing from Null for a C5 or C6.

I'm curious, what part of space are you scanning in and how populated do you think it is? Because when I logged on yesterday and set about my 6 system circuit in FW lowsec, I found 17 data/relic sites. Higher than normal i'll grant you but there's always plenty to run in my area of space.

I liked your post, just so that I could unlike it.

I feel like CCP is trying to tell me to go to wormhole space.


Clearly, this is a matter for Ripard Teg.

Love scanning down WH's as an exploration player, they always hold the possibility of leading to a place with more exploration sites than where I currently am, and checking the other connections has increased my income.

If you're not using WH's to expand your exploration territory (which should be literally anywhere, at any time, and bugger the locals) you, sir, are a victim of your own cruel behavior.

Are you a forum alt? Have you ever wondered why your experience on the forums is always so frustrating and unrewarding? This may help.

Exactly this. The best place now to base out of as an explorer is low sec due to the k-k wormhole buff. These wormholes expand your exploration territory if you use them. WHs are also the safest way to sneak into null sec to run sites if you don't already live there. It's random, yes, but that is the nature of the exploration profession.

As somebody more interested in small-scale engagements I love the number of wormholes I can find! Plus I can run the sites in my PvP ships when there are no backwater plebs around. Profit+Pew!? OP is just another whiny carebear.

I blame the 'Narwhals Ate My Duck' guys for all the extra wormholes.
