Not just the isk for the freightor and implants, but also the plex costs of the character you're using to freight stuff? What if you put that isk onto a shitty trade alt, and simply updated buy/sell orders in a trading hub (not jita) instead? I can guarantee that you can get more isk/click with that much isk invested if you know what you are doing..... Seriously, hauling is absolute shit. You're losing isk by doing it, not making it, because you could have been getting a better return by doing other things with the isk you invested..... There is an insane amount of clicking with market. Sure you make more but you cant really do it afk if you want to make good money, orders need to be updated at the very least once every half hour and even then you are losing money not doing it every 5 minutes or less with multiple orders. And my god whatever happened to you can do whatever you want in eve. If he wants to be a space trucker ffs let him do it. Its a game and you shouldn't be personally offended that someone chooses to play sub optimally. I like doing exploration, I make like 500m-1b per hour with it, but I could make way more just going through chat channels advertising edlp. One of those things is extremely boring, one of them I enjoy. Do you want to flame me for that? All you need in this game is enough money to buy the ships you want to fly, and if you dont want to spend RL money then you need money to plex. That's it. If whatever you do playing eve makes you that much, so be it. No they don't. Two or three times per day. | ||

Quite the experience reading the last several pages. How active is shield battery? Haven't had the heart to log in knowing that in my absence my current corp should have deservedly looted my pos for bitching about fuel. Also whats with the grumblings of Test trying to pick a fight with FA, the reddit post was so damn painful to try to read, even in comparison of my last few months. Well as far as TL/Hatchery is concerned, after the NEO Nydus. kind of imploded because there wasn't much happening. A lot of people went to Aquila, and some went off and formed Shield Battery. Shield Battery seems to be pretty active, but as someone on the outside looking in I can't say for sure. | ||

But there are so many terrible ways to play, and we're trying to stop him from playing in such a terrible way. If someone is enjoying playing a game they are playing it right. Maybe someone enjoys watching their pixel space behemoth cruise between gates, maybe someone else finds chewing through rocks with their mining barge relaxing. The is no absolute of good or bad play style in Eve. Although it is a sandbox the game does give positive feedback and quantifiable measures for success. Saying that it's all subjective is pretty silly given that. Measurable quantities of ISK? Kills? Whoop Dee Doo. Unless you get enjoyment from having the IOSK or looking at the killmail of an awesome kill you made. By the criteria "measurable success" you must suck as the game has a mechanic where players can own sovereignty over parts of the map but you're so bad you don't have any. Given that this started when the guy said he was freighting for isk then yes, I think isk in wallet is a quantifiable measure of success. I'm not sure how this is disputable. He outright said that was why he was doing it. Imagine the following conversation "I'm digging for oil and I'm doing pretty well. "But you're just digging a hole in your garden and it's 3ft deep and it's filling with water in the rain" "Yes" "So in what sense are you doing pretty well?" "I don't understand" "Well, have you found any oil?" "I don't think that's relevant" That's you. Unfortunately whether or not you find oil is pretty relevant to the success of the exercise. There are a lot of potential goals in eve, from sov to isk to killboard efficiency to gudfites to tears and countless more. In each case however the question "are you achieving that goal" will always be the measure of success. Epic kwark analogy, but let's not forget the mist important goal, having fun. | ||

I hope they dont make them bigger in exchange. wouldn't help change anything. that just means that you can go out and get more fights before returning home, as opposed to being able to be in a fight for longer. i doubt they would change the size. | ||
