Titan BPCs have gotten so cheap now, I don't think it's worth it. Back when they were 15-20b per copy, owning a BPO was awesome.

Do you know that information about the numbers and types of BPO's seeded was publically available on the forums during the lotteryQuestion

He defines "Key Players" as "Anyone who had a Sub during the lottery time period"

Do try to keep up. It's more fun when everyone has the same pair of pants on their head.

Kinda amusing how CCP is threatning to remove hard won and worked ISK from a goon LP and market manipulation scheme when CCP itself was dumping T2BPO's into the hands of chosen players that netted them billions of ISK for zero effort.

Huh?

Also, explain how T2BPOs were placed into the hands of *chosen* players as opposed to anyone who played the lottery, and explain how they're zero effort.

Oh, come on, now, you've seen the protocol. Change the subject, make outrageous claims, back the claims up with statements that make no sense and proclaim that everyone agrees.

Actually, just found the Goon LP thing. It's freaking hilarious, and CCP did say they're considering some undisclosed thing to deal with it. They didn't threaten anything.

I do think the first clause of that post was the closest thing to a truth that Brewlar's expressed in this thread.

Way back when, once upon a time, there where some Devs who litarally gave out BPO's to some... undisclosed parties, This was quiqly found out, proven and spread across new eden like wildfire, Never the less, in very short order, a few people where fired and some acounts where banned/deleted, taking the Unfair BPO's out of the game, forever (suposently), Dont know the exact details, but thats the word on the streets.

Yes, the T20 incident (PS, T20 is still working at CCP last I checked), which resulted in those BPOs being removed from the game, which means that any market effects that those BPOs caused have long since disappeared.

And Brewlar said "netted" which implies that the players in question got to keep anything.

yep, btw as a Owner of T2 BPO`s I obviously know all the dev's and they told me, that they are not listening to your moaning anymore, even tho they know your 100% right, they need a way to risk their job by giving certain ppl a advantage.

I don't think anyone here would suggest that the Devs think T2BPO was a good idea or we'd have more T2BPO lottery for the new T2 items and T3. T2BPO lottery, T20 and the fact that invention has lower ME than a T2BPO is moronic and the Devs need to get off their ass stop moaning about goons playing the game better than their friends and fix T2BPO and invention.

Does the inefficiency of invention stop people from making money from invention?

..no its not.

T2 BPOs give you a quite low hard limit on how much you can build with them, so they have to have a better ME to be of any use.
Invention doesnt have a limit on how many items( aka profit) you can make, wich at the end gives invention a much better potencial.


seriously if your not able to get that you should stop posting, its getting ridiculous.

Yeah Joy, T2BPO undercutting my manufcature and invention cost lucky for me I have the potential to blow billions of ISK away with multiple BPC's in mutliple slots while the T2BPO is stuck making zero effort profit in one slot. Joy for T2BPO and legacy game content that is no longer avalible to noobs unless they want to spend thousands of dollars, yeah CCP joy.

Sony I hope you're reading this.
