-can flipping was the "gateway" to pvp. It was casual pvp you could dabble in without commitment or expense. It was the best pvp mechanic in the game. We need it back. Without it, highsec is turning into a boring place.
When I joined, I undocked into a carnival of baiters, flippers, and smacktalkers. I feared them, but I watched their fights and local chat with fascination.
Now, noobs undock into pristine silent lonely space...alone. There is nothing happening outside station. There is nothing in local chat. The whole of highsec is full of nothing.
Explain the mechanics of 'can flipping' to the newer players of Eve. If set correctly it can counter freighter ganking for profit.

HoleySheet1 wrote:So, I thought an interesting topic today would be setting up a reaction of moon minerals in a series of pos's from my recollection and experience. I used internet resources and about a couple dozen moon probes to find my system. I found 2 viable moons for extraction and reaction. It was 2 moons, a platinum moon and a chromium moon. I checked and there was a reaction for hexite, what a fun endeavour I thought. Now I wanted to do this on-the-cheap because I knew the pos's could be vaporized at any time and fuel costs for the pos's were a part of the equation also. At the time...I think it was maybe 2010, the profit after costs was about 900 mill a month which was great for me as plex's were hovering around 300-400 mill, everything was substantially cheaper. I had my fancy new crane and a sense of adventure. I knew this would take a few trips so I bought all the stuff including the old pos fuel elements for about a month. That's a medium pos of your choice, and a small pos for starters. I needed two moon extractors, 1 for each moon, 4 silos, a simple reactor and the hexite reaction blueprint or whatever it is. Ok, so I anchored my pos's, got them running and anchored the moon extractors and linked them to the silos at each moon. The medium pos had just enough powergrid and cpu for my needs as far as the reaction. So my moon goo starts filling up in the silos...what a glorious thing, practically, completely passive isk generation. Now I set the reactor up at the medium pos linked with the last 2 silos; one for the platinum I was collecting at the small pos and the other for the finished product, the hexite. Once I had amassed enough of each material I started her up. It was a beautiful thing, I transported the platinum to the medium pos, put in the hexite reaction bp and it starts printing isk. I had it up for a few months before a large entity at the time asked me "nicely" to go away. I knew my moon harvesting time was over so I bought all hardeners and guns/utility defences and anchored them to both pos's and left with a message that ill go down fighting thanks very much. If not that, at least waste their time a little longer shooting down the pos's. I left the solo moon mining venture ahead of the game...minus 2 pos's. In the end it was a great experience. Trying to find any viable moons is a tough job however in today's eve. That's why I think rarity 8 and 16 moon materials should be offered in high sec. It's a fun process to set up and it's isk made easy. We need prices to go down, Eve is getting too expensive as far as in-game ships/items. This would contribute to helping lower prices which is good for everyone except the fat cats who profit from gouging the players. Have a great day everyone, I hope this was enlightening to some. It was similar to the lead farmer's saga which follows me like a fictional/virtual ball and chain, but these guys just took their moons and didn't go on a crazy rampage making up slanderous stories and threatening me in real-life. Negatives aside, moon mining is great fun and as your CSM representative I will look into moon materials being offered in high sec for the benefit of newer or older players. I think it would set off a lot of competition and interest too. Edit : This would also make high sec pos's/citadels an interest to more people. At the moment a high sec pos has limited use and apeal. Plus as many of us know, getting your state standing to 5 can takes quite a bit of grinding...
All those wordy words, Holey great ideas, just need an executive summary for the time poor and dumb asses like me.

Mine your moon goo, react it with another. Then, start printing isk

Another bump for another member of the Commonwealth. Do you own a Vizsla and do you like black pudding?

I ate fried black pudding as a child and adolescent. I think back and what I was eating I think of today as fried scabs, tasty though. I'm not sure what a vizsla is, please enlighten me. If it's a car, I've had several ladas (Russian junk), a skoda(Czech I think), a few Yamaha bikes, and even a 1968 porche 911 hard-top convertable...you think a 100mn fleet stabbed accelerate fast? Try a 911. Right now I have a civic which I like.
Vote for me for CSM because I speak for you, not this mittens guy or anyone else. You as an individual and your enjoyment in eve is my priority.
Thanks for taking the time to read. At least I know I got Mo's attention

If you are truly Magyar you would know what a Vizsla is, its the best gun dog in the world. Had one for 13 years, part of the family. My BMW x5 turbo diesel has gr8 acceleration and economical to drive, prob beat a 68 911. My son and I have blood sausage most week ends, good Scottish fare, he put his nose up first time until he tasted how good it was.

My father was a Hungarian immigrant. I was born in Canada. I appreciate my roots and wished my father was still around so I could learn more about the culture. One thing that I did learn is that Hungarians are the best at everything. While I am humble these days, I tend to agree with him.
Considerr a vote for me for CSM. I will represent you, the player, and create a better starting experience as well as try to entice more to come to OUR game.
PS The Skoda was Yugoslavian, now I remember.

Good morning capsuleers on this February 9th 2016.
My topic today is ganking. I was convo'd by someone asking me whether I support ganking. I have always had a pod popping toon based in perimeter who ganks autopilot pods. It can be good fun and can really tick someone off. I did this even before implants were displayed on killmails, so you would have to judge it's worth by hate mail you received. On the flip side, I've tried the tornado and hauler gank and scoop technique in Amarr. It can be very profitable and fun. I haven't had that much success but one time a hauler I popped gave me 1.3 billion in loot. I've never taken part in a freighter gank but have watched many. People just need to haul less so you're not such a juicy target. I wouldn't want to say I am a pioneer of ganking, but Code definitely perfected the art.
I know also the sting of being ganked. Why, just this weekend I was writing on the forums and had one of my toons on the uedama gate in sivala. While writing I looked over to see my guardian in structure then pop. At least I got the pod out (mid grade slaves phew). I know there are 2 sides on this but I think ganking has become an integral part of eve and players must take precautions to avoid monetary loss.

It would seem I let my passport expire a while back as I don't like flying anything but spaceships. It's a technicality as I can get it renewed post haste. However, if this puts me out of the running I hope some intelligent people with good ideas will be voted in this year. Let's make the new player game experience better. Let's attract more subscribers. Don't let special interest groups run the game. Good luck candidates and this thread was fun. Remember our game needs some cardio pulmonary resuscitation or it might die.

I'm looking at the bright side as this gives me an early start for next year, if this year's councils ideas ruin the game further, c'est la vie. My job next year will be tougher although if average numbers drop below 10k I will probably find something else to fill my time.
I endorse any council member to use my ideas. They are written here and dated so I would appreciate some mention that they were my ideas.
If I do happen to show up on the ballot, vote for the guy who loves eve and has great ideas. I remember years ago a forum post I wrote on a covert ops mining ship. The t2 venture was built and I got no credit. You're welcome CCP.

Your comments deserve no answer. As far as your bounty on me, I will match it if you ever get one, which you won't. You're a mildly annoying troll. That's all you will ever be in eve. Although your actions make you look more a fanboy. I'm unsubscribing this thread, so continue talking to yourself by all means.
