Let's not confuse "what is" with "what should be", even as a joke, when so many people on this forum have problems with basic maths.

Reliable intel sources tell that hiseccers have manufactured 2000 Tornados and 12000 Catalysts and they are already on the way to VFK for this event.

CCP prepares to reinforce the node

It's the main hub for an alliance of thousands. Surrounded by completely empty systems, and systems with one person in them. It doesn't get more dead that that.

And i wasn't just there the one day. 40 would be the rough average from two samples.



Now perhaps you begin to get a glimmer of understanding of just how badly non-combat activities in 0.0 are gimped?


Now perhaps you begin to understand why local and structure mails need to hit the road and never come back. Those systems are all empty because there is no need to patrol them or anything. They can just sit back in one station, thousands of them, and have all the intel they need for five regions deep. Anyone so much as touches anything they own or gets anywhere remotely close they will have an armada of thousands instantly ready to counter them in a matter of a couple minutes.

And yet they ***** about broken mechanics in high sec. LOL!

people don't cluster around hubs in highsec? Roll

you have to bear in mind - markets are focused almost exclusively in hubs in null. most player's assets are therefore in hubs or deployment stations - exceptions for assets moved to more remote / profitable regions for various moneymaking or personal reasons.

there are very, very few reasons to base yourself out of a station other than your alliance's primary hub. that doesn't mean people don't fly around looking for trouble or just doing their things.

feel free to patrol 40 stations, 113 ihubs+tcus, and 300 towers across 10 regions

i understand that you have never been in a successful space-holding alliance but please take your poorly conceived notions of nullsec back to fhc

Props on that vid. It's from India,where I live incidentally. That guy who plays Chribba is one of the highest paid actors in our country.

Indian movies are so awesome I don't even need to be able to understand them. They're so crazy and over the top and they do it with such a straight face it's like the 80's all over again. It's hilarious. Everyone should check this clip out. I promise it'll be the greatest thing you've ever seen in your life. Seriously, Indian super Elvis is my new god.

I can top that.

I thought that's what I linked, hence the Indian super Elvis comment. Guess I pasted the wrong one. Here's a slightly better version http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yysbbPStfWw

The Kwik-E-Mart guy apparently did action movies before he got his gig on the Simpsons.

e:The movies that come out here are so ******** I don't even watch them... Unless m drunk or stoned or both.. In which case i enjoy them immensely...

We still have the same broken bounty system we did in beta even though players told the devs how to fix it numerous times. Instead they're fixing FW, a feature nobody nobody asked for. If we're lucky they might take a look at stuff like broken null sec in 10-15 years. :(

Your alliance has thousands and thousands of members not including the largest blue list in the history of this game. You seriously suggesting you guys are too lazy to patrol that?

I didn't participate in Burn Jita because I didn't want to wreck my sec status. But if a bunch of hiseccers attack VFK, oh yes, I will be there.

This would be awesome, do it.

I'm sorry but patrolling would just make living in nullsec miserable. You are dumb for even suggesting that it would be fun or interesting. The isk generation for individual pilots in 0.0 isn't worth patrolling to protect for hours on end frankly. It's barely worth undocking a defense gang to deal with. The return of 0.0 mining may change that if it's lucrative enough: but frankly I don't think it will be.
