Caldari fuel blocks are currently selling for 23K in Jita.
Granted, this is mostly due to market manipulation today, but nonetheless, current costs to run a large Caldari POS now stand at 664M/month using that 23K/fuel block price.

I have to disagree with you. The fact that things like this are possible is what makes EVE such a great game.

I'm sorry you can't deal with this.

Have I been affected by this type of thing? Sure I have.

You do know you vore per account and not per character, right.
Next to that they ofcourse find other sources of income just incase MoonGoo get's worked over.

As for voting for Test candidates.
Voting for them is not that different from voting from their puppetmasters the Goons. So basicly they can be counted as Goons just aswel.
Same gamestyle, Just not the history to back it up not the loudmouth to lead them.

According to EveWho, ggonswarm now numbers 7590 members.
Test, their puppet's, is another 5500 members.

Those 2 groups, with all their alt accounts, can and will dominate CSM voting.

It does not concern me much, since I stocked up to establish a buffer.
But I am sure there are many budding industrialists you are ruining.

Well played.

I just wish I could understand what kind of mind Goon leadership must have to derive enjoyment in destroying the enjoyment for many others in this game.

Actually, it is pretty clear. Goon leadership are sociopaths.
It really does not matter that "Eve is just a game, and it is a sandbox".

Though it is quite impossible to do, it would be extremely interesting to have professional clinical psychologists study Goon leaders in and out of game, and compare their real world lifestyle with that of their Eve game style.

I personally believe that the correlation would be extremely high.


get decent PI skills and make the fuel yourself. then it wont cost you anything, just 2 hours of hauling every week or so and 10 minutes setting up the cycles a day

How dare large social groups vote for the candidate from their community that represents their interest's!!

It's fixed I tell you, fixed. You should never be able to vote for someone that is in your alliance or coalition, allowing people to do so is the equivilent of vote rigging. Those cheaters!!

For the record, although I dislike goons, you can't deny that The Mittani is an interesting person who create's drama and content for thousands of players. If he can get the support, why shouldn't he sit on the CSM? I know I am voting for the Representative from my southern alliance, why wouldn't I?

Using your same line of reasoning I could say the same about you.

Shame on you for stockpiling Nitrogen isotopes!! Now you can maintain your production costs at previous levels and prevent budding industrialists from enjoying the game the way they want to! If you had not done this, prices of items produces using Caldari POS would simply have risen to compensate the increased costs of production.

It's pretty clear you're a sociopath out to ruin everyone elses funAttention

You almost answer your own question here. More to the point, Goonwaffle's behavior is understandable in terms of having no mind at all to speak of. If you rolled their brains down the edge of a razor blade, they'd look like BBs rolling down a four-lane highway.

That being said, it's not such a leap to visualize those little boys who never learned to bathe, or use silverware...hankies...being resentful for the years and years of social rejection (if you call barfing in their presence "rejection".) They've found a digital home, having wrenched their drunken stepdad's p o r n machine from his grasp while he's out pumping gas...or the neighbor's dog...(in-between the molestations.)

Here, they get to get everyone back for not inviting them to the homecoming dance.

Holy waves of nausea, Batman!

You could I dunno, buy some ice harvesters, shove em on a retriever and, say, mine the ice you need for your tower yourself. Instead of buying overpriced fuel blocks I mean. Oh wait, what? Can't afford to pay Concord PI taxes to make your own fuel blocks? Cheaper to buy them? Well then you only have yourself to blame. Fuel is almost free out in nullsec... course you have to defend it, the space it's in, and soon the planets it's made on. But we call that "fun".

Do you cry like this when you lose at Rummy, too? Gin? How about Checkers?

It's amazing that people would pay to play a game with allegedly barf-inducing neckbeards who they claim to hate.

Makes you wonder whose brain looks more like the BB, huh?

The goons do a ton of things, that frankly they should be banned for. Hate the game that much, let's help make sure you never play it again.....


That said, this is a legitimate tactic and there's nothing at all wrong with what they're doing. It's a strategic decision that will impact the galaxy which is exactly what I like to see in Eve.

Let me re-write this, what exactly should they be banned for? Sure, I'm positive some have broken the rules, but you could find those people in every alliance including my own. Do you think all players should be held accountable for what others do? Do you suggest that an orginization of players should be banned because you don't like how they play?

Please expand on the quoted point.
