EVE General Discussion

Maybe, if the number that were popped was a substantial percentage of the traffic through the system.

Risk isn't about ship death alone, a more accurate representation would be ship death per capita

As a ceo in a large nullsec (and tech owning) alliance, but not part of its high command and therefore with no access to teh tech isk, I can assume you actually arnt a nullsec player and believe alot of propoganda about nullsec and tech moons.

Tech moons produce too much isk, everyone knows this and moons should be more balanced. However in teh CFC there are auditors who will come to your alliance and check all the accounts if there is any suspicion its leaders are embezzling or missusing funds.

At my level (pvp corp ceo) I see where the isk is being used, sov costs, supers provided for corps, srf funds, capital ship assistance and a dozen other places, in FA the accounts are transparent, as I believe the rest of the cfc's to be.

A dozen tech moons will produce many billions of isk a month, however, the above costs soak up ALL that isk in a large alliance and is used (in the cfc at least) for teh benefit of everyone, right down to the frontline grunt, in fact the largest part goes to supporting him on the frontline. Remmeber those billions are being spent across many dozens of systems and many thousands of players. Unlike say the hisec incursion runner who can easily pocket 20 billion isk a month if he wants to, just for himself. The isk in alliances flows, teh isk in incursions and hisec isk farming doesnt flow, it sits in fat wallets that just get fatter.

The sky isnt falling. Your highsec income wont be near zero it will be 10% less than it is now. If -10% of your current income = nearly 0 then your doing something wrong or need to go back to school and learn some basic math.



We can talk about re-balanceing latter. This is about the isk that is made every time someone shoots a rat.
(For the record, most of the isk comes from nulsec. Just saying.) source - http://community.eveonline.com/devblog.asp?a=blog&nbid=9115



Perhaps the economic major could explain to you the difference between a money generator and a money mover. Tech moons do not MAKE isk. They MOVE isk from the hands of people who want moon goo to those of people who have moon goo.

Every time you kill a rat, you create isk out of nothing. Before you killed that rat, that isk did not exsist in game. THIS is what is causing inflation, NOT moon goo. Get with the program.








Look, ideally CCP could update the AI and update the spawn systems and update all the pve content in EVE as a whole... but lets face reality here. That is a monolithic task. This situation, while not a sucking chest wound as "he-who-shall-not-be-named" (I actually just cant spell his name) might have put it, but it is fast becoming a problem and something needs to be done about it. A global 10% reduction is the most immediately obvious place to begin, after that we can address the rest of the problems that have led up to this moment. Risk/Reward, Highsec/Lowsec/Nulsec, incursions and sanctums, all these are issues that should be addressed AFTER an income adjustment.

they need to encourage risk more, create new low sec options. Hi sec is decent. Isk doesn't come from nowhere. Every isk in eve was from a mission or a bounty or some npc action. On the other hand if i titan is destroyed every isk ever earned that was spent on that titan is now completely gone.

all you null bears and your risk vs reward...

Please... you rat in ******* titans how much risk do you REALLY have?

You can run your plexs, making billions all you need to do is watch local for anyone NOT a blue.
You can rat... with HUGE rewards, + officer, faction spawns... in HS... we get what... 10k isk rats in high?

incrusions again... in low/null you run when you see a nuet... in HS you never know when someone will come in and jam you out... and you also make more isk...

I mean lul wtf...

Mining is the best... with all the ganking in high... your 20 times safter in null/low as... o ****... again the SECOND you see a red/nuet in local you know your in danger... however again in high... you always have the nuets in local with you... you never know if one is gona be a ganker or not.

If ccp wants to keep killing eve... sure make it even harder to make money... thus buy ships, mods, etc... make the game more like a job and more people then quit.

If ccp wants to make HS make less isk... well then make it safer, lower concord times, etc...

And yep this is from a HS ganker...


To say highsec is safer than your null homes?

If anything lowsec needs a HUGE isk buff...

Can't build supers, can be attacked by them... very hard to point.. and destory...

Risk of being in low seems WAY higher than the reward...

NERF FIGHTER BOMBERS IN LOW.

No, that statement is entirely accurate. For all the tech moons currently being exploited not a single isk is being injected into the game. I actuality some is being removed through market taxes and fees as they are traded for isk that was already injected from some other source.

Tech moons are a type of mineral faucet not a isk faucet... They still are a very important part of the economy and are a factor in inflation just like oil is an important factor in RL economies because it's used in almost everything in manufacturing

Burn Jita and Drone Region nerf all in the same week.

Ill be having popcorn and various odd end ships for sale.

Since the nerfing of bounties directly affects the creation of isk, doesn't that count as an effect on money supply?

You and Chokichi Ozuwara seems very angry, and lacking a sense of humour, I even put in that extreme 'bittervet' and 'economic major' there to make it painfully obvious, yet you both just took the pain and ignored the obvious..
