This has happened a few times and been 100% anywhere from 12 to 24 hours after the CTA is over cause noone online can change tax rate.

There really should timer system in game so when CTA's are over the tax automatically drops back to the normal amount, maybe tied into the calendar or something.


What you really came here to say was how pissed you are that your Null Sec feudal overlords don't give a rat's ass for the peasants like yourself.

That worked out really well in France some years ago. A few thousand beheadings, a revolution or three. Fun times.

So in order to get people into the CTA, they have to up the tax to 100 percent so there's no incentive to rat.

This is the result of nullsec having to sell the same things that highsec has, just to get people to join their alliances so the neckbeards who run them can boast greater numbers (of cannon fodder).

And this is why we find more carebears in nullsec than anywhere else. The "leetness" of nullsec is as much a lie as the notion that the only way to go to nullsec is by being in an alliance.

Effectively, you are trying to "poach the King's deer".
Last time I looked, individuals don't own the space your hunting in, chances are your CEO owns it, or has to pay tribute to the Alliance for the privilege of being there.
Feel Lucky that he doesn't demand 100% all the time.
If I was your CEO, that's how I would do it....

Corp Tax at 100%
As a corp member you work for the Corp. Your efforts belong to the Corp.
You receive compensation via ship replacements and other benefits.
If you don't pull your weight, you get the boot...

Now get back out there and mine that Veld!

The best thing you could possibly do is awox and take everything not nailed down. Your corp is bad if you need help doing these things I'll be happy to walk you through them.

Man, you're a whiner.

Back in my day we used to not only set the corp taxes to 100%, we also would have a team of 3-5 people fly between belts and kill anyone mining during the CTA.

Miners thought they were special and could get out of the CTA, they were wrong.

So you have it pretty easy/

also I remember when there was corp days/weeks where tax was at 100% to raise funds for corp bills.

that bill might of been a t2 bpo, srp's or just about anything. so was not unusual for pvp'ers to raise 80+b isk in less than a week.

Hey i'm a major x monkey for fleets of any size but compulsory anything isn't my idea of nullsec. Was in an alliance with all shut-ins and uberneckbeards at the top and being cussed out to fleet up by a grown man whose mother washes his underwear is just EWW.
I join the fleet enough so that if i don't i'm not subject to hazing.

BTW all those next-level PVPers who all sing the same bash-the-indies song are boring people who want eve to be a space FPS. Put.the.Redbull©.down.

Timed changes in corp taxation is actually a potentially useful feature.

Terrible presentation though. Could be used as a "how not to present a suggested enhancement".

Heh, I had a brat that cried foul when I forgot to set the tax back to 10% after a CTA. He never helped the alliance, never roamed with us, and never actually moved to nullsec. After he sent a corpwide mail about my "bullshit imposition" I replied to him, and he left the corp.

Maybe you need to join a carebear corp, that wont try to force you to pvp by changing tax to 100%. Better yet, join a pvp corp that doesn't need to force it's members to pvp.

This is as nice as I get. Best quote ever https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=4137165#post4137165

Can I get some details on this? People mentioned that members of TEST were awoxing/stealing stuff and joining Pizza.

Actually it's corporatism as the ceo clearly wants everything without giving you anything in return...

I don't charge any tax, ever. What a ripoff.

"12 to 24 hours!!!! OMG!!! I can't earn!!!" WTF?

It doesn't sound so much like a gripe about the tax rate during wars (which can make sense to shutdown PVE crap that isn't helping with the fight) but the fact that they don't get that tax rate lowered instantly when the war dies.

Move self to a worm hole and farm in peace from corp bullies

A) no bounties so no lost income there
B) awoxing "just doing my job blowing up blues not on the CTA" corp "mates" can't find you
C) probably never see a CTA ever again anyway from WH space

You adapt by having an alt account not in the corp as someone alluded to with his incursion comment.

Corp forces you to do too many things/takes advantage of you but, for some reason, you don't want to leave...log in your other account and have fun.
