to see all the tinfoil on the forums.

in a game built on conflict do you really think ccp aren't going to intentionally do something to make people have a hilarious and absurd discussion about it?

as if you need something to see 'all the tinfoil on the forums'? Shocked

conspiracy theories....


yes but this is one the ccp guys in the office can high 5 each other about because they caused it!

Man, I think CCP overestimated the player population during the spring, it always goes down a little then explodes for summer.

I thought it went down during the summer because everyone was out enjoying the warm weather (in the northern hemisphere)?

In the fall, it goes up or down since people return to school.

In the winter, it goes up or down due to spending more time indoors and / or the holiday seasons.

In the spring, it goes up or down due to whatever reason seems appropriate.

Every answer is a correct one to fit whatever plight is affecting the currently population.

so you basically want us to have a new Asakai / B-R so you can get some more lowsy drones? feel free to buy yourself some capitals inshure them, undock press self destruct and shoot them once with an alt before the ship blows up, so it counts as pvp.


Or everyone could just start blowing up highsec carebears. That'll do the trick, too.


That explains why a few of my corpmates were blowing up mining barges in high sec while i was doing my part in killing off them Guristas.
For those who havent noticed: Deploy 7 Geckos and a flight of small drones in your carrier and you are up to 35-40 millions a tick. Happy ratting! :)
Although i heard that might change with the 6th of june.

Isk destroyed? Could it possibly be that PvP is Not The primary activity in the game?
Who would have thunk it!

Could it possibly be that the goals aren't all intended to be equally easy to reach?

would be interesting to hear some reasons for CCP to do it to their 'pure pvp-oriented' game

and nope, trolling of their players doesn't look very good in this case

Seriously? It's rather obvious why. They'd make it harder because it's the activity they'd want us to do the most of.

There's also other reasons it could be lagging behind, such as their numbers being based on a server-wide average over the past year or something combined with the fact that we're in a relatively quiet period for PVP since the next big war hasn't started yet.

Between goons and russians hopefully, and in the end they would just kill each other, .. forever.

I'm killin' as good as I can!

Highsec is owned by players now. Systems 0.5-1.0 are New Order Territory. All miners and other residents of Highsec must obey The Code. Mining without a permit is dangerous and harmful to the EVE community. See www.MinerBumping.com

Oh look, someone else too lazy to do anything but sit back and claim other people's victories as their own.

Now comes the really fun part.

Where CCP goes "whoops, we overshot the mark for damn near every activity!"

"Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws."

One of ours, ten of theirs.

Best Meltdown Ever.

is it too much for the REAL Eve Online player? Sad Isn't it what ALL THIS GAME ABOUT?

After all if miners (who ACTIVELY not playing the game) can make it why can't REAL PLAYERS? Cool


Because mining is the lowest hanging fruit in the game? Oh, and it can and most often is botted?

Massive Titan battles are a little bit higher up. And you can't exactly bot them.

No. This is something trumpeted by master trolls who know better and unfortunately the general populace has taken their troll and accepted it as truth.

Exploration and mission running across the board - in all security space - provides less ISK/hour while requiring more effort. This is especially true when pitted against multibox mining.

In reference to high-sec, mining also puts you in a position to provide actual content for PVP players and extortionists.

Maybe she was trying to do exploration and mission running in a barge. What?

I'll agree with the multibox part I guess. Past 2 characters running exploration sites starts to scramble my brains.
