Might I just say I have full confidence that DRF will fall apart on its own. Someone will steal money from someone else and Russian rage will take care of the rest.

My personal prediction, someone in one arm of the alliance will get bored and want to go play tanks or some such. He takes the entire wallet and turns off the sov for their entire alliance. Not only does he do this, he RMTs all the isk and sell the back-stab for cash giving him a large real life bankroll. DRF reels from the loss of several regions(more specifically sov and cyno jammers) in one button push not so much the isk.

So what exactly are the goonys doing with all their bot made isk? Buying more rifters?

Why don't you buy some SCs?

You have all that space there and what have you done with it? Nothing.



I don't know crap about either goons or DRF - so i went to S-DN5M, from the look of dotlan maps it was the belly of the beast know as Goons. What i saw was no indication of them even using the belts. On the ship scanner I saw more complexs then I cared to count.
I saw them get really pee'd at me and mount an op to kill me with the players they had around.
Take it for what it's worth, I don't believe Goons were botting there.

Now DRF...which system would you like me to check. They can't stop a determined cloaky frigate from eventually getting there.

I'll report what i find.

No, not mad just wondering when or if EVE will be fixed.

You have sent me thru Legion of Death , and Red Alliance so far (not there yet) - i don't know wether to be mad at you or happy for the opportunity to evade bubbles, interdicters, and be able to insult 20 pilots at a time in local..although if they do uncloak me i doubt it will go well.

We all forget that Russia is very cold during the winter, and Russians know how to fight better in the cold than we all do.

We're doomed, I say. Doomed! [/tinfoil]

The NC sat on those tech moons for years, in the end didn't help them.....

Just because eve is not going the direction you want doesn't mean it is broken.

Historically in game though it is not likely they'll end up with all of 0.0, if they do they'll reset one another and start the real war. After all there is a reason why the Russians all split into a half dozen different alliances since RED came back from 1 system.

The winter nerf is not going to stop the DRF, they will adapt much faster than Americans or Western Europeans. Take away their supercarriers they'll drop normal carriers on you. Take those away and they'll come to you in battleships. That's why nerfing never works. (They changed production incidentally 2 months ago in preparation, so they have lots of extra carriers and battleships, as well as more titans joining soon).

They don't.

They will just disband in rage. They grow too large, nothing to shoot, they get bored. Someone steals their stuff and disbands their alliances.

More like 70%, but I get what you're saying.
Also, it's not like market regulars haven't been expecting a "technetium nerf" for quite a while now.

in fact, technetium trade has transformed in a massive game of high-stakes "Chicken" : the more ISK you pump in while CCP does nothing yet, the more ISK you get out of it, but as soon as CCP does something, everybody still "in" gets screwed massively.
