If you're going to log in an alt to agree with/congratulate yourself on the forum, at least use one with a different name. Roll

4 is an unlucky number in some East Asian cultures, with similar pronunciation to 'death'. Maybe the seller wanted to curse the buyers with death (ingame)?

why only one drake in each system?......The OP is right in that there's no immediately obvious, good reason for there to be drakes across several systems like that, but only one in each.


Yes there is, read Tippia's post.....

So it felt to me a normal EVE day in the normal universe. I decided to go to The Forge and check market prices of some items, I went to look at the ships and I decided to check the Drake prices. I was confused and my mind went all strange when I saw this...

What can explain selling all those Drakes at the same price as each other then. I want to know why they are all at the same prices because this is what I can put in one word, strange. Big smile

This appears to show how much Lol the market can get sometimes doesn't it? i just thought to share this strange thing with all of you i never encountered before.


Same thing happened to Mercury last night.

Someone bought all of it.. and I mean all of it in Jita and reposted it at 14,444,44 isk p/u.

Since when has "Lol" or "laughing out loud" become an adjective? "This is so lol" or "how lol". I have seen this more often lately, mostly in German conversations however and I have become used to it, but it seems it is becoming Anglicized as well.

Says the person with the name lollerwaffle. Back in my day we used "lol" when we were laughing. Now it's used when we find something mildly funny but we don't actually laugh. Nowadays if you find it funny you type "hahahahahahahahahaha" or "ebin" or my personal favourite "paramount lyl"
