EVE General Discussion

I will never leave hi-sec ever again, I will never fly in a space ship ever again, I will never leave Jita period. So you want to know why? I have decided a long time ago that flying around and blowing stuff up got boring. Its not like you get to aim and fire, you just select target and hope you dps is greater than the tank on the ship your shooting at or sit at a POS with 50 other lemmings shooting at the thing and coming back to finish it off so that 2 people in the alliance can benefit from moon goo they say is going to "help fund" the alliance. Nope no thanks. I have figured out to a fun way to play an MMORPG without needing a corp or anyone else other than the rest of the gamers to buy my stuff.

I decided to be a business man, pure and simple. I trade. Chances are at some point in time you have purchased something I have sold. I trade in high volumes in all kinds of items from minerals to ships. I buy and sell billions of isk worth of materials every time I log in. I enjoy this part of the game. I don't care if ships are balanced or who is winning what war, all I care about is what the hot commodity is going to be tomorrow, try to speculate on it, and turn a profit. I have billions upon billions of isk, probably more than most corps are worth combined, and I only intend to use that money to buy more stuff to sell and turn a profit. I won't buy a jump freighter or POS's or any of that garbage and wasteful time sinks. Nope the moment I log on to the moment I log off I am playing my style of game. If I want to walk away for an hour and come back to check the market, I can, no worries.

Playing merchant is what I am doing in the game, it is what I enjoy, and my goal is to have fun speculating and seeing how big of a margin I can make on bought and sold goods. It does not require hours upon hours of my attention flying through space watching out for the next gank or being told to shhhhh on TS.
