unless, of course, in reality shes a dude... now that would be awkward, now wouldn't it?

I suggest you do something noteworthy - something that will get mentioned in a devblog.

Pick a frigate that is dirt cheap and not used heavily in pvp, fit up thousands of them, and go forth and put a large spike in the graph that inevitably gets drawn about the most popular ships used in pvp.

I don't judge people by their race, religion, color, size, age, gender, or ethnicity. I judge them by their grammar, spelling, syntax, punctuation, clarity of expression, and logical consistency.

You should buy a monocle and fly it around low-sec in the cargo hold of the cheap frigate.

Go hang out in .9 systems with 650k omni-tank. Use the missiles to get in on a few kill mails. 8 billion for the ship and fittings, plus another 1.2B (?) in implants.

I misread the title and thought I had found a less disgraceful path than ninja-salving my way to 10 Billion ISK...What?

If you ever get 14bil you can buy a set of slaves, two years' worth of combat ships and still have enough to drop a thanatos on VFK-IV for laughs.

That's what I did, anyway.

He had expressed interest in getting a faction pimped Mach. I told him that would be a waste, cause they are overpriced and he might as well put a giant "Gank Me" sign on his ship with all those faction mods.

Then he asked me what would I buy? Good question, I suppose I would acquire some good BS BPOs or a stack of PLEX, but that's just me.

What would you buy with 10 billion ISK?

I recently spent 10 bil on buying hundreds of T1 frigs and the associated fittings (Standard T2 fits). There's cruisers in there too, and even a few BCs for good measure. But hundreds of frigs.

Sponsor gladitorial games, wherein thousands of ships burn... all to the glory of the departed.

That amount of ISK is a good investment waiting to happen.

10B ISK is a lot for some, but not for others. Play your cards right and you can turn that 10B ISK into 50B ISK.



That's ridiculous. No one in their right mind quintuples your ISK. I've only rarely seen ISK tripling services.
