EVE General Discussion

Every kill, every mission/site and every festive season more stuff makes your assets swell.
Do you stuff that junk in your trunk or simply shoot your load in the faces of buyers for quick easy cash?

I like to keep my assets tab relatively neat and do go around picking up stuff occasionally.

P.S I like to collect Velators.

Uhm...look. It's a game. As such, every bit of it can count for or against. It's a lot like chess. Pieces can be assets or cumbersome depending how they're managed. Overlooking things is the culprit behind all major losses. It's also a source of drag on one's forward movement. I view resource management as one of the chores of digital gaming.

As everyone has said (and will say) accumulating stuff happens as a matter of course. Sifting through it, pulling value from it, or dealing with it in one way or another is as inevitable. I just like to keep the job as easy and productive as I can. Then, I tend to be a "leave no stone unturned" kind of gal.

I feel kind of dumb buying something I already have, if you know what I mean. I feel kind of annoyed rifling through a mountain of things to find a thing. Time is money, so they say, and they also say "neatness counts." From experience I know it does. I don't relish the time and labor it takes to keep up with this. However, I do love the position it puts me in to be ahead of the...stuff.

And, that's what it's really all about, right...STUFF??

That melody.


Anyway, sometimes I just "trash" stuff if I press alt-T and notice there are way too many tabs..
I'm pretty low on isk (only got about 40-ish mill) and don't really "make" much profit (still trying to figure out things).. but I just can't stand it when you look at your assets and there's just too much of it.

Either just throw it at the first buyer, or just trash it if I'm not in said station. Anything lower than 1m isk has to go. I may make exemptions for anything closer than 5j.

My asset tab is kept military-clean. 5 years in the game and I have assets in only four stations on this character.

An alt has assets in one of the same stations as this char and in one seperate station, my supercap alt has no assets outside his ship anywhere, my neutral highsec alt in three more (and I should probably tidy one of them up), and my two alts-in-progress only at the (same) school station they are sat in - that is a total of all my game assets for 6 character on two accounts over only 9 stations!

And in all those stations, with the exception of Jita for my neutral alt, and this characters main staging system, everything is ordered in cans for quick locating on anything.

I'm not OCD, honest

EDIT - If I've docked a pod at a new station, I'll go so far as trash the noobship before undocking (and in some occasions, I do this even if I'm logging out there, and definitely before jump-cloning out, knowing full-well a new noobship will be spawned when I log back in or jumpclone back there. Maybe there is something wrong with me )

I was a hoarder once, but not anymore. Although I might check for meta 4 and higher, ofcourse.

Clean freak.

Every time we get flavour-items I put one in the hold of every ship I fly (appropriate to what I use it for if possible); sooner or later they all disappear in the the ether, with the added benefit I can tell the age of a ship by how many fluff items it has in the cargo hold (my carrier sports a Santas little helper, a Fedo, and now a dose of Jump-fatigue cure

Definitely a hoarder.

Most of the times when I have to undress ...
... don't actually bother dressing up again until I'm back home.

I throw it all in a station container and forget about it until the pointless junk fairy visits again, then I check the prices just in case any of it has become worth the effort to sell.
