So to sum up, Incursion fleets earn their ISK at everone elses expense... much like they accuse Null sec alliances of doing.

Isn't it amazing how the combination of a lucurative ISK stream and a little bit of organization can make you act just like those you claim to despise. Smile

I see it going both ways though.


The ISK earned in highsec could finance many wars against nullsec entities through equip-the-noobs programs and payout to mercs. If highsec "hates" nullsec so much (real hatred, not a "let's play Eve and PVP by shooting each other competitive "hate") holy hell could be raised with all that ISK.


Meanwhile, nullsec hates highsec for this "easy ISK fountain" of highsec incursios yet it was demonstrated already that popping the highsec moms causes major butthurt and stops the grinding in its tracks. Yet nullsec entities, goons mainly, have only gone so far as ganking freighters and financing hulkageddon.


The tools are in place for players to actually do something about all this, but people complain instead.

What I am starting to sense in all this is that some state of detente exists. Nullsec will harass highsec but somehow the incursions are sacred, and highsec generally leaved nullsec entirely alone and never seeks revenge.

Could these be the same players? I wonder.

And in the past 7 hours, 2 incursions have been popped, the last one 1 hour after the earliest it could be.
Here are the top LP leaders for the latest one popped, right from the eve automated mail system.
Note all have identical LP, indicating that they worked the Mom together.

We are moving out of Euro primetime, so it will be interesting to see if 3rd mom is popped tonight.

You can see it with the war in Fountain, too. A lot of sniping, but it's going nowhere.

At least 2 of those 9 originated from German corps.
DIN has a strong German contingent.

I was not on the mom acc gate to take names this time.
So who knows for sure, in this particular instance.

And the last high sec mom today was just popped. That makes 3 in 9 hours.
This one apparently by ISN.

Yeah, ISN leaves the last mom up.

Last MOM wasn't popped by ISN. TVP popped it.

I'd like to see CCP buffing the HQ NPC spawns like they did the Vanguards in the Escalation NERF especially the MOM site in HI SEC... without touching the lo/NULL incursion spawns ( as a matter of fact I'd like to see the lo/NULL sites returned to pre escalation spawns so they are run more often )

Or better yet mixed security status Incursions with the HQ sites in lo or NULL
