While I don't currently have the power to abolish the madness that is OTEC, I'm going to focus on what is in my power. That is not being a consumer of any product that contains technetium. Supply and demand in action. I am lowering demand, so the price of tech will fall and thus, I am hurting OTECs wallet.

So join me New Eden. Stop being a tech consumer and live a better life. Big smile

As long as I am making my ISKies building stuff using Technetium, I don't give a rat's ass if someone has a monopoly on it or not. And I am making plenty.

Products containing technetium allow great efficiency at an affordable price. You'd be a fool not to take advantage of such a great deal.

Yep, so no using T2 mods of any kind. No Exhumers, no HACs, no jump freighters, no command ships, no logistics - nothing. No T2 hulls of any sort.

I would recommend going around ganking anyone using such ships and modules. Spread the message - free yourself from the shackles of OTEC!

Confirming, Goons have sick powers over some people's minds.

Loss is meaningful. Therefore is the loss of meaning likewise meaningful. It is the source of all trolling.

Quoted for truth.

Also: Noobships. No Tech, No Mins (not true...they GIVE you mins!), All thriller, No filler.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Its funny because Molle did the same thing, but with class, why are CFC desperate in becoming GBC? Really all thats missing is a formation of alliances frustrated by CFC taking them out, like the old (decent) Goons did (before Mittani (Molles biggest fan) took over) with GBC, sadly back in those days a titan was rare, now its what people wipe their ass with

"Wipe"? Sure you didn't mean to say "shove up their" instead?

That is a good idea OP!

Make us a list of all the products with Tech in them and we will stop using it.

I like to EFT warrior now and then. With the t1 ship rebalances, could there be viable 100% tech free setups for them? This will certainly be a challenge.

Unless I'm mistaken; isn't anything that is T2 contain some amount of technetium? Is there anything outside of T2 that does?
