Piles of isk...

Why grind ISK if you don't have to, go do something enjoyable with your spare time.

Obviously there is PVP which is great fun and certainly an easy way of spending your hard earned ISKies but you could also just take off into space in some cloakies and explore null or wormhole space for example. I don't know how many accounts you run but you could try ninja running exploration plexes in hostile null sec space or something. It's more fun than doing boring idle crap.

there's a special joy one gets at SDing a cap during a fleet fight.

if you have disposable income, try inventing creative and lulsworthy ways of disposing it

You sir are the unavoidable decline and death of EVE. (Me too)

EVE is a PvP game and nobody can be bothered or motivated to PvP.

The reason you and I have butt tons of ISK isn't because it's easy to get, it's because we see no reason to spend it.

17 days old, I almost bought you one but I thought about it and asked, why do you need a navy geddon? Start by losing regular geddons, you will find they die just as quick.

WAIT WAIT

I'm just an alt. My main has lost Geddons...

Stocking a hangar in Jita 4-4 with ships is easy, all it takes is RMT or incursion grinding. The courage to undock in those is sold separately.

Sometimes I feel that I'm the only one veteran that is not rich. I can buy the next month's PLEX and that's it Lol

To be honest, from what I have heard, it's not that good to be really rich. But it does feels bad that I've never flown a Machariel..

I know quite a few veterans that aren't rolling in isk. It depends on your definition of "rich": I've never been dedicated to grinding enough to get past having a few billion at any given time; some of the guys I know who have played a lot longer are the same way. We make enough to do what we want, then we stop doing PVE until we need cash again.

What next, I ask myself. Having purchased everything I need in the game, I now find myself amassing a pile of isk in my hangar. It just keeps on growing and growing, like the pot of porridge in the Hans Andersen fable.

I long for the days when I had a sense of having to work to achieve something, like mining for days on end in a cruiser to earn my first battleship, now with a hulk I can just chew roids at the rate of dozens per hour.

So as a vet who is a 'casual' player, with a mild addiction to the game as a pastime (as opposed seeing it as an alternative life 24/7)... where is the personal challenge in EVE these days?

Posting with my forum alt for obvious reasons. And no, you can't has my stuffs.


Most folks, when they become unimaginably wealthy, turn to philanthropy. I'm gonna call BS on this pile of isk unless you send 5 billion to me within the next 2 days. Anyone with piles of isk would have no trouble doing this just for lulz, to prove a point or for philanthropies sake.

Didn't care enough to look.

Making money in this game is stupidly easy.

1. Buy Jumpfreighter Alt, Buy Cyno Alt (you can actually train these if you feel like waiting a few months)
2. Join large 0.0 coalition (one preferrably at war with people, and taking regions)
3. Buyout all the Abaddons (or anything else, ammo, repair paste, 1600mm armor plates) in Jita Big smileLolBear
4. Re-List them in Coalition Space.
5. Make MOUNTAINS of ISK.
6. Then you too can waste isk on expensive ship spinning toys.

(WTB- Malice btw)
