Yeah gate camps are a problem. Luckily our new members get safely escorted from empire to our nullsec home. If this sounds interesting you can contact any of our fine recruiters in-game.

No, actually they don't because if I was still paying cash instead (of buying plex with game isk I earned "ingame"), they would not only be receiving the money somebody else paid them for the PLEX, but they would be receiving my sub payment.

As it is now, they are only receiving the other guy's money who paid for the PLEX I use.

6 years in eve and still no idea of how plexes work, hoo boy. Better get out, this game is not for your kind~


Maybe so... but the way I play, SOMEBODY ELSE is paying for MY game, probably you, since you smell like the pay-to-win type.

Miss Harlot

You will find many alts posting who DO have experience of nullsec - and left.

They left because they felt they would be part of something big and fascinating when in fact they were no more than a cog in the RMT machine.

If you are in a corp or alliance where you feel like a cog in an RMT machine then leave it and join another one. Anybody who thinks that all nullsec alliances are the same is an idiot.

I'm not saying there are no bad alliances in nullsec but people who join one and get discouraged and then give up are the last people that should be commenting on the state of 0.0.


Why? Because you are an idiot who thinks they are not involved in RMT? Lol

You haven't been paying attention. They are there working as peasant farmers defending their overlords RMT Plantations.

As someone who enjoys the odd gatecamp i must most vigorously protest!
Use of a Microwarp drive is absurd, there's no such thing for a start, they never had them in WWII naval combat and as far as i know Admiral Nelson and Chung-Mu both had to do without them or their equivalent.
Therefore anyone who uses them is incompetent in real life combat and unfairly dominant in game.






sry, ill take my MWD off and never put another one on.

Do you have any evidence of anybody involved in RMT? Or are you just spreading vicious rumors?

By the way, which horrible nullsec alliance did you used to belong to.

Who cares what nullsec alliances do with their ISK? If the fatcats are selling off some of their alliance's ISK at shady websites in exchange for real cash, the effect on everyone else is completely negligible. The type of players who're likely to buy dirty ISK are carebears who want to slather their CNR or Golem in officer mods. That dirty ISK would then go right back to 0.0, since that's where high-end officer mods come from. Essentially, then, these alleged RMT'ers are directly selling high-end modules to carebears.

That's a gross oversimplification, but the point is it doesn't have some massively huge impact on the game. Once ISK is created, it's in the game permanently aside from ISK sinks that whittle away at the sum total (or unless CCP bayleets it); once officer mods are dropped, they're in the game until they're destroyed. You can't magically create more of either besides what people are already doing.

And if these very visible alliances are RMT'ing their ISK, then either CCP is turning a blind eye, they're terrible at monitoring high-profile corporate wallets, or the RMT'ers are very, very good at laundering the ISK. Either way, this game is almost nine years old now, so if the possibility pisses you off you really should just stop playing because it's never going to be fixed.

"RMT plantations" is really nothing more than a useless insult, because it doesn't matter. Even if true (and I'll admit that where Russians are concerned, anything is possible, since even today the average Russian's salary is ~1/5th that of an American; then again, they can buy PLEX with ISK), it doesn't make a damned bit of difference to complainers.

Yes these massive alliances are firmly entrenched, no you can't dislodge them short of a miracle and a lot of very dedicated and organized pilots, and that's just how it is. Gotta play by the rules.

When the Original posters topic is a crybaby rant about how unfair it was for him to be ganked by a Broadsword in his Thrasher, I'd say the thread was derailed from the start.
