I keep climbing and falling! Your wall of text was way too high.

I think what was done was the right thing to do.


Given that I have finally moved my indy toon out to null instead of having to keep him in highsec just to be competitive, I could not agree more about it being the right thing to do.

I refuse to be a high-sec mining slave to some null-sec cartel.


Less whining more mining. Or should we get the whip again? I have a favorite one, it has Mittens engraved on the grip.

TL;DR: I have no idea if Crius is good or bad for the game, but I really don't care. All I know is I cannot play exactly as I used to (doh, that's the definition of change) and I refuse to adapt. I blame everyone except myself.


OP, you shouldn't play if you don't enjoy it, but why do you feel the urge to rant about it?



uhh because the product that he was paying for, 2 weeks ago, was great until the devs broke it. That gives people entitlement to voice their complaints.

It's not. The response is “you are creating your own problems”.

Or, to make the initial comparison more colourful, he's not being kicked in the balls — he's willingly ruining a cake by dickslapping it and then complains that the marzipan covering hurt him… somehow.

And calling people with complaints a complainer is another surefire way to keep them. But by now I think we all know you have drank the kool aid and will continue to until "remember when..."

Alas, my poor POS, I knew it well my friends. A station of infinite ISK revenue, of most excellent value. It hath allowed me to copy mine blueprints without risk a thousand times, and now, how only a memory it will be! My anger, my entitlement rises at it! Here hung those labs I hath used quite oft! Where be my riskless profits now? All of our profits? Our free copy services? Mine reason for grinding mine standings so high? Now, you mock me and mine kin with tales of industry for sake of "balance"? Nothing more than change for the sake of change!?!?! Morose this makes mine brain. Now off to thine Account Management, unsubscribe mine accounts, leaving the rant lain out before you as mine reasoning, for you to jest about.

Funny, I can replace "hi sec" with "null sec" in all these posts and they make the same amount of sense and have the same relevance. Although you have to include "renter" in there somewhere.

OP, your POS now has an advantage that no station can ever touch: mobility.

Not only are all of your facilities better than what can be had in stations, but you can place them at will in systems that will give you outrageous rebates on your fees. Coincidentally (no… not really), these systems will generally also have plenty of free and cheap offices that you can use for long-term BPO storage.

Move around you say? Well...no. I bloody hell will not do what those Devs want me to do.
This is really just you being obstinate for the sake of being obstinate. You willingly forsake a massive advantage handed to your chosen production method and are then upset that giving up that advantage (and ignoring all the minor ones) leaves you with no advantages.

You have not been kicked in the balls. You've been given a huge strawberry tart and chosen rub your genitals in it. There's a difference between the two.



Stop making sense! This is GD dammit!



Also OP. Come to W-Space. Its not much different. Except you can die.... a lot. But the space pixels are prettier, the red crosses stronger, and the players twice as predatory.


YOU WILL HAVE FUN! *Jedi Mind Trick*


I prefer WH space because it is pure. You know exactly the risk you are undertaking when you enter. And there is no "rule brokering" to take advantage of.

That and it generally separates who really wants to take on risk and those who just talk about risk, but never really undertake any.

Now that the dust of Crius has slowly settled, it becomes very clear.
Btw no one considered to organize the BPO's of a corps into some kind of a structure as is done for the market? Really? No? It had to be a plain list that even with my limited BPO/BPC collection goes on for pages and pages.


This! So much this.

Yeah, you can filter between the BPOs and BPCs, but when you literally own the majority of the BPOs in game it's pure hell, particularly when you're trying to finish off the last couple dozen that aren't 10/20.

The filtering options in the Industry overview are seriously lacking. Evil
