EVE General Discussion

It seems wherever I go I get hate mail. People seem to think that miners and industrialists are lazy, and pathetic? Im sorry but without us EVE would not exist. We turn what eve gives us into the end products that other players need. We CONTRIBUTE TO THE ECONOMY?

You know who does not contribute to the economy? Station traders. Even as more miners appear, the prices products continue to rise, partially because the pathetic station traders sit there and jack prices up. To make a buck they take something that was 10,000 ISK and make it 11,000, than 13,000 than 25,000 than 75,000 than 100,000 etc etc, soon prices are crazy because station traders are just trying to make a quick buck.

You know who else does nothing to contribute to the economy? Gankers, and PVP players. The majority of them just plex their accounts to play. Plexing is the WORST thing to happen to the EVE economy. Instead of people having to work to convert what EVE gives us into resources, and eventually ISK, PVP players just show up with 1.2bil ISK that no one had to work for, which drives prices up!

Its just nuts. The amount of low-life scum that just leech off of the economy is crazy, and these scumbags still have the audacity to blame miners for rising prices, or hate on us?

Gankers and PVP create the demand for your minerals.

Also PLEXinge is by no means harmful to the economy, as the isk is not generated from nothing.

Pokes the offering
It stinks of troll bait.

The only hate I see here is yours. That would be a miners perspective then?

Quality thread though. Have a like friend.

Outside the fact that this trollpost is ranting let me remind you though,


Even in our Corp we have people that have jobs and play the game, and yet plex their account, or we even gave them a plex because they just couldn't afford the game. not everyone has good salary.

And also, everyone in this game has atleast mined once, because we all know how it feels like, some love it, most hate it.

And we all know that we need them.

If you are so pissed off about the station traders, become one and undercut them every damn second they post something if you want to actually do something about it. become the messiah of plex.

People play this game for fun, some people like to gank, most like to pvp, how are you gonna make ur money mining if nobody is gonna pvp anymore? since there is no new ships required to build.


Blaming everyone isn't gonna help anyone either.

So are you just trolling or are you really that dumb?

If I produce Mining Barges and I pay people to gank the mining barges that are already out there how does that not help my position with regards to the demand for said barges?

My ganking losses alone are 20 bil, I suppose no one benefited from my demand for more ships.

Is this post for real? I have hard time deciding if the poster is a genuine lego bricks nerd or neckbeard...

Every profession has a place in this game. Without that synergy and rivalry this game would have died long ago.

That's all I have to say on the topic.

Mr Epeen

The stupidity of the PVP and Gankers just goes to show how doomed the eve economy may be.

If PVP went on as it was supposed to (That being that factions and alliances are trying to kill each other, and eliminate the opposing infrastructure while protecting their own), the economy would be much better off. Instead this is how PVP goes

Player PLEXES, buys PVP ship, kills miners.

Thats just not productive. Its harder for us to sell things and make profits if the very items we are producing are just being used to destroy us. It creates a double negative, which is not how EVE should work

"Every profession has a place in this game. Without that synergy and rivalry this game would have died long ago.

I agree, I think that ALL playstyles are valuable, if played properly. Gankers, PVP players, and everyone else could be playing Vital roles in the economy, and having WAY WAY WAY more fun! Instead you just sit around and kill us. Would it not be more fun to go charging into battle, fleet vs fleet, knowing that your corps/alliances indy players are hard at work making everything you need, compared to just sitting around all day killing anything that moves?

Thats all I am going to say.

Ok so you're trolling, IBTL
