OP, biomassing with 8 years of undistributed stuff would be a harmful and irresponsible act. As you know from many forums discussions by expert economic theorists and other players, the EVE economy is a delicately balanced system of "ISK faucets" and "ISK sinks." If the faucets are letting too many ISK in, we have inflation. Which, for various reasons which are too difficult to explain, is bad. If the sinks are letting out too much ISK, we have deflation. Which is also indescribably and unthinkably bad.

So-- If a char biomasses with his/her stuff intact and undistributed, that in fact acts as an unnatural ISK sink. The stuff is just suddenly and permanently gone from the economy. And worse, that sudden IS sink is unforeseeable. Actors in the marketplace are entirely unable to take balancing precautionary measures in response. Worse still, many of those market analysts and economic theorists will never be able to identify the source of the sudden opening of the ISK sink. That uncertainty can lead to doubt, which can in turn lead to a crisis in confidence in the economy. And we all know what happens then. Market collapse, cascading systemic failures, cataclysmic implosion.

Therefore, OP, I would urge you to responsibly rethink your decision. Rather than being the source of an unnatural ISK sink, allow the stuff to continue to play its role in economic micro-balancing. If you need a conduit for re-entering the assets into the economy, please just say the word and I'll assist.

After 8 years, I am quitting EvE. I can say the last few months with people whom I assumed were friends. were some of the best times in EvE Online. Unfortunately it's just too much work to start over....the whole mindset of "how can I screw you over" has never settled with me very well, and I dislike bullies very much. For that reason, I am leaving EvE, and would like to publicly thank the community for giving me a great game to play, and at the same time, an impossible to cope with Alliance community...

There will be no firesale, so don't ask....Let the biomass begin...

Biomass is just stupid

Also in the age old tradition: Can I has ur stuff?

So it took you 8 years to realize this wasn't Star Trek Online?

Bye.

And since you probably don't have any stuff to give away, burn it.

Burn it all.

Also, now you don't have any excuses not to gank till you are blue in the face. Go forth and kill, kill till yer mama see's you are -10 , then go kill some more.

Everything in EVE is a trap.

And if it isn't, it's your job to make it a trap...:)

You want to know what immorality in EVE Online looks like? Look no further than Ripard "Jester" Teg.

Chribba is the Chuck Norris of EVE.
