Faction POS modules havnt had blueprints that dropped ingame since Pos modules were changed to being built from minerals to pi mats. So around 2 years. Whats been on the market is whats left.

Grammar is only bad when it does not communicate its meaning. In this case it still carried its meaning, there was no other interpretation.

In you're case....Jack can get off his own damn horse. *mmmm...nice. Another double entendre.

CCP: Why dont Faction tower BPC's drop anymore?

Just relaying things here guys, so I can't speak to the matter in detail.

For those that missed it, in the "Devs Answer Everything" thread, this was addressed already by CCP Greyscale:

CCP Greyscale wrote:
We're looking at adjusting the supply of these at some point in the reasonably near future, possibly.

So...we are already aware of it. No need to file bug reports.

Faction towers will go back in someday if we can ensure a better distribution of them. That's the issue here, and as others noted, it's exacerbated by high-sec (low-risk) POS, and so on. End of the day it's a distribution method that wasn't working as intended and needs a fix, if one is even possible (hence the "possibly" in Greyscale's reply).

I'm sorry we can't provide more details right now, but that's where this particular thing is at right now. BFF has much bigger fish to fry, I think you'd all agree, so it'll get some attention, but only once other priorities are dealt with. Smile

True. But lazy is lazy. Will one more letter and one changed letter really break you? I'm no militant prescriptivist but come on. I didn't even care about the all lower case thing (something I've been known to indulge in myself; less so as I age).

.


This part depends on the reader. When I read I see words, I don't hear the sounds.

So when I tried to make my way through that sentence my brain made this:

"Is this .. do the blueprints for the towers get taken out of the game?"

Do and Due sound exactly the same, but the meanings are so different that my brain can't replace one with the other. I honestly didn't know the OP mean "Due" until I read Zhilia's post.

So for me, the sentence as written did NOT communicate it's meaning.

I read this a few days ago and finally decided to respond to it directly.

You obviously do not fundamentally understand how language works.

And such things as your sentence makes a nonsense of it utterly.

They were very right to point it out.

Learn to be less self-entitled to 'always be right because I am ME', and you will get along better in this life.

Really.

That's sad. We are just trying to help.

Also, Pro-Geeks are famous for being the most scrutinizing nit-pickers. Those who over-analyze Star Trek and Star Wars are the most famously vocal and loud.

Get used to it. I've had to deal with it from Pro-Geeks for 47 years.
