LOL.... no I didn't but unlike the tea party I'm kind of sure that I get it..... you asking me this question, on the other hand... makes me wonder if you know what I was talking about :))

Update on our situation. We've now replaced all of our customs offices. We finally got fed up doing it the hard way and talked to some friends and got some bigger guns involved. 3 dreads make short work of a customs office, which makes it a LOT less painful.... Fortunately our friends were willing to put their bad-boys into the fight against CCP's tax policy.

What disappoints me about this thread is that CCP hasn't made any statement about their "mistake". They said that PI taxes were going to be 17% and multiple people have calculated it above the 30% level and CCP declined to give any response to this even though it's completely obvious that they fumbled the ball. ... I mean.... I thought they were on a new BFF campaign and when someting important happens that affects the satisfaction of the player base, they shouldn't give us radio-silence..... I guess it's back to business as usual..... screw the players....no communication....no openness.

Back to square one.

Already a pain to get POS fuels with the fuel block changes, now a tax to run PI that is so outrageous that you literally just killed PI for most players. 17% to import, 17% to export, and then the factory planet to actually make a tier 3-4 product. can i have some lube with that raping?

so its too hard fo ryou to destroy the old customs office and put up your own? I guess you might not be able to do that in highsec where there is minimal risk to you then and the little tax is what keeps you safer. If you setup your own customs office you can set it at zero or 16% jjst os people use yours more

Sorry, CCP is all out of lube. The only thing remaining in abundance for rectal use is Sisters Long Thorn Cactus Probes... look at the bright side. You will get one forcefully inserted for free if you are not part of any major 0.0 alliance...

You people need some friends.

We are required by our constitution to let the voters think they have a choice. That's democracy!
