KILLING: Inflation

Some of us are angry because inflation is increasing the cost of PVP. What can we do about it? Kill those responsible, those that benefit the most out of inflation.

But who is to blame, who benefits the most out of inflation? The answer is simple... the poor, if you have no money, and the overall economy is devalued you lose little or nothing compared to the rich.

Poor people are to blame, what should we do about it? Shoot them, blow them up, I propose a series of hunting parties spread throughout New Eden, and we eliminate poverty one pilot at a time.

Poor people caused it because they have the most to gain, Poor people will pay for it, pay for it with pain!


How do I tell if someone is poor?
If you see them firing t1 ammo, they must die.
If you see them in a lower-end hauler, they must die.
If you see them in any t1 frigate, they must die.

When the poor realize their mistake, they'll stop manipulating the economy and we shall return to 25m isk Hurricanes!

So, I guess you're not known as the sharpest knife in the drawer...

We must accommodate the idiocracy.

If they can't afford more than 25M for a hurricane, they must die.

Eat the rich

WoW holds your hand until end game, and gives you a cookie whether you win or lose. EVE not only takes your cookie, but laughs at you for bringing one in the first place...

Sooo, lemme get this straight....

If I have no money, inflation (making everything cost even more money) is somehow good for me.

Woah woah woah woah...

Inflation is being caused by a lack of minerals (at least soon) and thus a decrease in the supply of ships, modules and ammo and the likes. So you propose to fixzthis by destroying poor player's ships? And so increasing the demand for equipment - thus driving prices higher as the supply diminishes. Sounds like a great plan!

(If you really want to combat inflation, start manufacturing and increase the supply of equiptment.)

I endorse this line of thinking.
The poor need a kick in the ass. They deserve everything they get.

Yes, this is a troll but the inflation you see in the game is being caused by people you can't get to. They sit in Jita all day and manipulate prices, day trade and create false spikes. Most of them have hundreds of billions of ISK and see a 0.5% profit as a good day because they are stacking profit from such a high base number.

Sorry for your luck. Your game was invaded by bean counters and politicians. Hope you enjoy the new and improved EVE.
