average of 7 thousand with 1.2 billion population avail is fairly well on par with Tranquility, which has about 5.8 billion population avail,. . . you know, the rest of the world?

7 thousand average per 1.2 billion would be equivalent to 33.8 thousand average on tranquility.





5.8 billion overall? You do realize that the vast majority of that population outside of China is stricken with poverty and unable to afford internet/computer/spaceshipz, right? Population explosions are happening in the third world, not so much the first world...



That's horrible, you should set up a donation fund to help those in need.

Do you smell what the Lock's cooking?

That number is pretty big. Considering the size of the target audience by comparison to the size of the "other" target audience which is the rest of the world. I would go as far as to say that so far EvE has been more successful in China than the rest of the world combined.

. . .and the chinese population is /not/ stricken with the same poverty?

Chinese poverty right now as defined by the world bank, and reported by the chinese gov. is 16%. But that figure is disputed as being purposely reported low.

World poverty with the same parameters minus the chinese population is 15.6 percent.

Your point?

The point is that Hilmar released monocles last year, and the world poverty lvl has been rising ever since then. We are suppose to be richer then the chinese but now are poorer thanks to one man.

Most of the Serenity subscriptions will be secret police to monitor the few genuine players it has.

Also, if you click your heals together and utter the words "Tienanmen Square" three times, you'll disappear almost instantly Lol
