plex has gone down, minerals are going up to the price they've alsways were meant to be at. Overall, I'm glad cheatbox was banned, and I wished the entire software was outright banned.

Any movement so far has been due to other factors. It'll take months to see any real change.

Not that I care but mineral prices went up before the ban (speculation) and are now going down again. Though they rarely "stabilise" for longer than 3 - 6 months, I expect they'll go up a small amount once the speculators have divested fully, but not by as much as people think. The "problem" was a non-problem with mining, as not all that many characters were running dozens of miners. The bigger problem was bombing wings in terms of gameplay.

There are people sitting on (and have been sitting on for months ) mountains of minerals and ores.

Pretty sure it's gonna take longer than 2 days for any difference resulting from this in particular to show up, especially since multiboxing itself wasn't banned. You can still fleet mine with 20 alts. It just requires slightly less laziness on your part.

In high sec there was a problem with ISBoxing miner fleets and also Incursion ISBoxer fleets. I imagine bomber use was probably in null-sec ?

the market change ATM is from speculation of the changes.


As stated by others there is enough megacyte sitting in hangers to supply all of eve for about the next year and half.

guess we need some good mega war to speed up the process then?
