High and mighty, alone we are kings. Whirlwinds of fire we ride. Oddelulf brought us the crown and the ring, covered in blood and our pride.

I justify the lack of TL EVE unity due to the fact even the worst of us are just too good at this game. No single corporation or alliance can handle us. Whenever someone tries to bind us together for a purpose we eventually split off the moment that purpose or activity is complete or becomes low enough in value or priority. Whenever we achieve something that few in EVE will ever achieve let alone understand, we immediately get bored and complain about lack of content. It's not that we're ADD or anything (though some of us are) but rather that you can't make kings ally together to march on a single kingdom when beforehand they were in the midst of conquering continents.
The shenanigans you read in this thread are often the highlights of what the TL EVE community finds interesting and enjoys but there's a lot going on all the time that doesn't get reported here or anywhere.
+ Show Spoiler +And there's also a lot of nothing going on that make certain people unsub and bittervet

It is pretty rare but I've seen people doing this with drakes/tengus and thanatii in C3's (in C4's people tend to just warp in the carriers themselves). No one bothers assigning fighters in higher class wormholes because fighter dps is nowhere near as effective as dreads + loki webs.
edit: Of course this means their carriers would be forever trapped in the C3 and you'd have to haul in and construct them there yourself.

hi
am I bad or if I point an arty nado in a caracal (with dishonor so 40 km) and he immediately starts burning away from me, if I burn to keep point on him (I go ~2500), the nado will still get good hits on me no matter what I do (I wasn't hitting approach on the guy* but I lose the point if I don't go in a vector with a high "towards nado" component if that makes any sense)
*this time

you have 2 lses and links approach him like your prometheus.

That is, of course, because I don't want anyone to see how I make almost a million a day on Tritanium.
You're full of nonsense... now, it's not much, but I found a full large Jaspet perimeter deposit just sitting in a high sec system. It stayed for 3 days and nobody touched it but me... picked about 100 mil in ore out of it over the period of three days without a single other person mining there once - not bad for a noob in a retriever. Why I am going to give my locations to some corp if I can find systems nobody checks? I just can't accept that this isn't a troll.
You guys should really stop complaining that I told all the mathematically foolish your little scam with the financial APIs - I know your labor racketeers will be annoyed that people might expect to not turn over finacial and trade info to corps, but, hey, that's how the system works. Its like his tinfoil hats have tinfoil hats.
Nope, done with that thread. Can't take it

I was just talking with Tango about this last night considering I have a few Carrier accounts accounts sitting around and the skills to build them in say a C3.
And you know how I feel about PvE.
Want to have an adventure?

Carriers aren't that expensive and c3s pay rather well, don't they?
|
Found the info I wanted while writing this so if I was going to do it, might as well go all out and join a c5-c6 escalation group honestly would a carrier pay off in a c3 anyway ? or would you clear your sites too fast in a c3 since you can't move it, someone with more experience than me would be better to comment further.
Nice breakdown of wh types http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/List_of_All_W-Space_Systems

I've daytripped C3s before. All sites are solo-able in a full-bear fit T3...albeit some can be slow. With fighters assigned/friends/links this should help significantly with speed. And the money was good, at least comparable to lowsec blitzing once you stopped having to look up the sites for triggers. Wormhole loot prices have changed recently but I don't think its anything too severe. And I found more empty C3s than ones with even an abandoned POS...they seem largely uninhabited and this is something I've been considering for a while and if its something you want to try just let me know.
My only concern would be the returns once you clean out your wormhole after getting the carriers in. Yeah they're cheap but I don't really know at what rate sites respawn in wormholes. I've come across C3s with well over 15 anoms and I would clean them out but if they take days to respawn that many....you may end up having to go down your chain for a reliable source of sites, in which case your carriers won't help. I don't know, still something I'd like to try. Never done wormholes, was considering just dropping a POS, building a Thanatos, and seeing what happens cause why not and I'm bored.

You dudes act like 2 bil is some irreconcilable amount of money that we could never hope to recoup in a wormhole
