maaate, I think your pedals are going to fast to see it, but it looks like they are going backwards

That's not relevant at all.

Once the POS is anchored, your standings don't matter.

Tell me again how you have to put BPOs in a POS to use them?

Nah, most likely he actually didn't know any better, but now he does.

So calling somebody who's clueless a clueless person while also showing point by point why they're being called clueless is all of a sudden petty name-calling ? Huh. Remind me to change the definitions in all of the dictionaries.


Is it so hard to understand we'd ALSO PREFER T2 BPOs would have never existed in the first place ?
But there's a huge difference between preferring something to have never existed and wanting them removed after being there for quite a while.
Just because you're incapable of seeing anything except the whitest white and the blackest black (or, at least, admitting to it) doesn't mean we also have to act as if we were blind to the existence of many different shades of gray.


Huh, talk about petty name-calling.
So how exactly WOULD the game grow if T2 BPOs would be removed, in a way significantly different from the way it already does?
What exactly would be OBJECTIVELY much better in order to even begin to justify removing something quite a few people worked hard to eventually obtain ?


And THOSE current newbs will also end up becoming vets, and faced with the KNOWLEDGE that CCP can just remove something willy-nilly whenever it becomes MILDLY INCONVENIENT, how much "brand loyalty" do you think they'll have ?
You'll lose more than JUST the people with T2 BPOs (ironically, you might not even lose all of them) and people that know people with T2 BPOs, or people who were planning on buying T2 BPOs, you'll also lose (and keep losing) people far later in time that look at the way CCP would have handled this issue and lack the confidence in a fair resolution to other future potential issues.


Adding more T2 BPOs is vastly different from tolerating existing ones, and you know it.
Nobody is disputing the POTENTIAL of the invention and reverse engineering process of becoming better than the BPO manufacture alternative, but neither of them are quite there yet.
You used to admit that you realized buffing them instead of removing T2 BPOs would be a good enough way, but you backpedaled.

To use a yucky and only partially useful analogy, if you have a bullet lodged in you that will be painful and/or dangerous to remove (but you could function fine enough for the rest of your natural life with it stuck there), while you may be opposed to yanking it out, you can be as sure as hell that you certainly don't want to get any additional ones in there.

Ok, let's use T2 invul BPO again because you people like it so much.

Only 100 runs per T2 BPC. What are chances that inventor even gets 100 run T2 BPC? Usually close to 10 runs per T2 BPC. Akita T owns T2 BPO and can do as many runs as she has materials for.

Invention takes time and money just to get that 10 run BPC.

And you can't do that with T2 BPOs? There's like 5000 T2 invul BPOs in the game.



Guides.

I never said I have office in NYC.

Getting one would cost billions. Large POS already costs 1-2 billion a month to run. And that's labs offline.

Any reason why I should use something else other than large deathstar/****star in hisec?



Are you sure devs don't have more of them? I've heard they play this game too.

No office in NYC = no corp hangar = BPO must be in POS.
