"you updated a market order and ended up playing for an hour" - additional dailies added will cover this time, you'll be logging in for an hour to do dailies then logging out, so you wont be interacting you will simply be doing chores like everyone else.

I kind of agree with the wormhole post, its similar to an rp'ers point where i either have to do a mission (finish mission or lose standings) or jump a ship a load of jumps so im not shooting my own faction rats.

But its implemented anyway so this post is pointless, enjoy the daily chores. Roll


Depends how it's implemented. They could add any number of them but limit each account to let's say 3 reward/cycle. Then most people would be able to find 3 they would normally do during their game play and still make it so you can do it all relatively fast so you still have time to do other things with your game time. If they don't put a cap, then people will definitely burn out by forcing themselves to do even more stuff they dislike in the name of MOAR SP.

For the people who feel forced to do them, there is effectively nothing that can be done unless the feature goes away because you could probably have them punch themselves in the crotch on a daily basis if it awarded SP... Their best bet is a repeat of the "team" situation.

Paying with plex is paying the sub. You must be subbed to post on this forum, it's really that simple.

You are giving them money. Every time you use a plex their accountants yell "cha-ching!".

(just so there is no ping-pong needed: even if you buy PELX on market in jita SOMEONE payed RL money for them).


And? Like I care. It is not my money. And I said CCP wont get MY money. Like I said, go back to school for reading and understanding lessons. Also I am not planning to grind for plex so it wont hold long.

If everyone cant understand you it´s definatly OUR fault. Yeah...
You could just give me all your stuff and end it even earlier? It would be an awesome WIN:WIN situation extravaganza.

It's always nice to see people that can't spell simple words question other people's schooling.

Yep, but this wont solve your lack of understanding logic in any way.

BTW... is your brain better now?

I hope CCP, that's the way you intended this to be used, right?

I'm in a wormhole.

Guess I'll just go to work..

Create an alt to collect the skillpoints.

So I can transfer them at extreme cost and terrible efficiency? Why didn't I think of that?

Sounds like since you're living in a wormhole but don't ever jump through other wormholes or kill rats it's pretty inefficient anyway. I guess you'll just have to not take part in the entirely optional task. Don't worry, I probably won't be doing it either.

I get around so I'll probably get it done in low sec fairly often. It's the principle of the matter though. Wormholes are never considered.

Let´s take rough prices from right now today. You could get a skill extractor for 200m. Get those skillpoints on an alt. Sell it for 600m. Visit a pleasurehub in dodixie - oh, you never leave that WH?

I m not saying it´s ideal, but you can get a boost from it (yeah, you "wormholepeople" got more then enough isk)

Well if it makes you feel better, I'm sure they will be when they add more daily opportunities, and if they don't feel free to call on me to help argue for their inclusion. This one is just the easy, wide reaching opportunity to iron the kinks out of the system and be accessible to as many players as possible. I see ones for PvP, industry, wormholes, exploration and all sorts of other activities in the future.

All I'm wondering is how non-carebears are going to be awarded SP for the things they regularly do.


Well if they start giving out SP for crying on the forums about how CODE is misunderstood, you'll be knee-deep in them.



This thread isn't even about CODE., are you obsessed? Back on topic, please.

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

Well they just turned it off for some reason. But I went in my mission, shot the first rat and ka-ching 10,000 SP, which I am very happy to have, thanks CCP.

I really don't understand why all these entitled bitter HTFU players are complaining, its only one rat that you have to shoot.

When the going gets tough the Gankers get their CSM rep to change mechanics in their favour.

Just to clarify, CCP has disabled it because it has been exploited to gain more than the intended 10k SP per 22 hour cycle.

I wonder for those who have not had the opportunity to log on, will we be getting 100k SP to match those who have "made creative use of game mechanics"?

Everyone except wormholers, if I had to guess Blink

Not sure if Troll or just really doesn't understand how PLEX works?

PLEX is not seeded by CCP in game, it has to be bough through channels by another player and then redeemed into game. All PLEX was originally bought by a player.

I know however that CCP does have some PLEX that they have confiscated from "Gold Traders"/RMTers that they sometimes sell to keep the market less volatile, and even this stockpile was originally redeemed into the game through the above means.

So whilst you "PLEX" your account, you are still using someone's money to play the game.

*facepalm*

Read back a bit and you'll see me saying the same to Ni Neith. The quote you've got above is my sarcastic response to his claim that he is not subbed because his account is plexed and how he's done that to deny CCP money.
