Considering he just injected ~9m skillpoints (costing ~11.5 bil!) and is now whining about the cost of flying t1 frigs....yeah.

Not to mention his history of posting awful/discouraging advice to other new players without bothering actually to play the game before forming half-baked opinions and running his mouth.

If I'm not being clear: OP, I do not like you. You won't ever get help from me here (or, I imagine, most of the NCQA crew). We do not appreciate trolling in this forum.

Thank you so much for this post Cara. It is honest and heartfelt. You just said what I felt but could not find the words for. And you did so in a simple and concise manner. I could not come up with anything near as good in 2 text walls.

I wasn't whining, I was simply asking for ways for a solo combat frigate pilot to make isk.

So that your earnings are higher than your potential losses.


But of course you like to troll my posts, so you just go ahead as you will anyway.


Edit:

Actually it was around 14 million sp in the end.

This thread came about because normally, I go straight for battleships and then make isk. This time as I was doing frigate skills I decided to reinforce those skills with the added sp (including core skills).

But then that got me thinking how can a frigate make isk solo, small hold not useful in a level 4 mission, and there you have it. Not that you are really even interested.

Ok thanks, a few times those have been mentioned now, so I will have to look at those.

If you have been playing this game since 2009 or whatever, you should know most of the ways to make isk right now. The best way to make isk using an actual frigate is to scan and hack sites, or you can simply do in station trading/scamming/ etc.

Regardless to make "good" money flying only frigates, you are going to need to train non combat skills or work really hard. It sounds to me that you are trying to turn eve into your own version Rube Goldberg machine. IE: Taking something simple like making isk in Eve and turning it into something far more complicated and involved than it needs to be.

Sometimes you are the squirrel and sometimes you are the nut. Today, you are the nut and the squirrel is hungry.

Played since around 2005/2006 but not continuously, been around for a lot of game changes but not all.

Plus never really did much with frigates and prefer to keep this character pure combat orientated.

Done a lot of non-combat activities already in the past as well as combat ones. So the point was to stick with combat, plus being combat only means there are less skills to train.

Thanks Cara, +1.

I couldnt have said it better.

Hell, I guess I was going to **** off all of ISD if I voiced my true opinion on this person.

Let's just say; Think of the worst possible word you can imagine about a person, and multiply it by 10. And even then you dont come near my opinion.


For the sake of all that is holy about NCQA, could CCP / ISD please give a kind suggestion to the OP on how to post, if possible in the form of a banhammer or so?

And that's why you guys troll my threads, not that I make many.

You're not even trying to be constructive you're just having a go.
