$15 a month x 97 accounts = $1455 in cash or PLEX a month for CCP

Goddayum.



That's why CCP won't prohibit ISOboxer or any program like that. Puts money in their pockets.

I have a feeling eventually the Rule-Hammer is going to come down on this BS sometime within the next year.

well I tried to mine ice in agal once since the changes where made.
this guy pretty much locks everyone else out from mining in that system.
so ya smart bombs are in order or a fleet of 300 cats/thrashers would make a nice utube vid.


Where's the New Order when you need them? Instead of ganking solo miners The New Order should be focusing on these multiboxers who kinda ruin the fun for anyone else. I'd support that more than I do their current approach.

This asshattery would never happen outside of highsec.




Yes, that was a stealth NERF HIGHSEC comment.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

I waited in system over an hour just to see it in motion. It's awing, no matter what your feelings are on the matter.

Lmao ~30k "people" , cough ...accounts online right now, so just 300 people multiboxing! Big smile
Nah for real if you read something like this you have to wonder how many of those 30k accounts are actually different people?
My guess would be maybe 10k, probably less.

If you're going to bend the rules, bend them into a Möbius strip.

More likely that CCP will simply change ice mechanics to make mass isoboxing less practical/efficient/fun.

97 accounts all mining ice clearing an ice belt in 20 mins, he could prolly make somewhere in the ball park of 10 bill just mining in a 5 hour span.

altho im sure for a computer set up he prolly has a horse shoe style set up of about maybe 6-8 comps with 3 screens each

They all move as one. I really doubt he has that many comps. Isoboxer lets you alter frame rates and graphic priorities, so the strain is not that intense on your machine.

Tell me how he ruins your fun?

It's not what I call fun, but what he/she is doing doesn't have any impact at all on anyone else.

Are you a carebear miner who has had these icicles mined away from you? Is that how he's ruining your fun?

I agree with you on the New Order thing though. Would make an interesting blog post from James.

I'm not normally about seeing other people angry, or collecting "tears"

BUT there are some choice whines in this thread, and I can't find my cheese.


CryBoo hoo, someone is making ISK, WE MUST STOP THEM!Cry

Tell me again about how every playstyle you dont engage in "doesn't require any effort" and everyone who does it needs to die in a fire. Be sure to mention about how you tried it once but it was too easy/boring/ethnic-homophobic slur.

The solution is self evident - 97 accounts worth of Catalysts.
