I love when these kind of topic pop up, you have the "I HAVE ISK UP D ASS WINSAUCE" bandwagon jumping up and down, swinging their epeen, and trying to prove that somehow they have the secret EvE isk making technique.
I have never came across anyone in this game who told me that they had isk you might get the occasional hard core mission runner with a few billions worth in assets, but that's because, like someone pointed out... they just spend the last year or two playing this game for 40 hours a week.
And PS: "according medical studies", anyone who spends 40 hours sitting down on their asses playing a computer MMORPG needs immediate medical attention...and not to mention the side effects includes, Morbid obesity, deplorable physical hygiene and nonresistance of a social life (Even if you factor out work or school)
and one last note: can someone of you presumed "Rich bastards" post a recent wallet transaction Pic or something please ?

the only difficulty with cash as far as i can see is that you can buy accounts. This means that 1 dyspro moon will buy you 1 capital char a month. Delve moons without dyspro will more than pay for the infrastructure, the dyspro moons will add 12 capital characters to the alliance every month. With a player base as large as alliances are nowadays this will mean with coordinated thinking that you could buy a skill advantage that will be exponential in potential.
This reward comes with its own difficulties. Removing a sovereign alliance is both difficult and expensive (unless you were fighting KOS or Bruce) and so in some ways justifies the payoff.
I cant help wanting to go back to the days when k/d ratio's were how you hurt an opponent and space didn't matter nor devalue the economy.

Bah, why would people provide you with information when you have already made your mind up?
There's soooo many ways of making billions in this game, in way less than 40 hours a week. So from my point of view either you're a troll or you're just choosing to be ignorant.
I made mine buying salvage during the week(log on now and then to adjust prices), build rigs on friday and sell the lot during the weekend with a 20-40% markup. Trick is to get the first billion and it just grows exponentially from there, to a certain point anyway. Do a bit of trading of some of the nicer faction/officer items, there's a couple of more hundred mil. Start a corp full of miners and make them pay 10% to build, I dunno, something really big and impressive and take off with the cash. Something, be creative.
Sure, it requires a bit of work, and the actual use of one's brain. What makes you isk now might be completely unprofitable next week. Morals might get in the way, as might significant others, work, dates, etc. What will definitely get in your way is telling yourself and everyone else there's no way to do it. There's tons of ways, and all you have to do is pick one.
Oh, and making jokes about gamers' hygiene is sooooo last millenium

Nice corp you got there...would be a shame if something happened to it. |

Let them get rich, I prefer to play a game

This is exactly the way the real world works.
The only difference is pretty much anyone could be obscenely rich in EVE if they worked at for a year like a job)well if they start with 10 mill SP).
Wherever you went - Here you are.

working does not make you rich, not irl, not in eve :p
only way to get hands on the big money is to to cheat other people somehow, this includes (but not lomited to) scamming on market/contracts, getting people to fight for you to get moons etc.
since op came up with the moon stuff, i got to say only reason to ever bring a ship to fleet fight is that you're going to get paid, a lot. (or then you just want killmails, which isnt really good reason tbh) which doesn't happen. still some muppets do go in there just to get "ratting rights" or something else funny which is hilarious since you can rat wherever you want regardless.
anyhow, you dont need to be ridiculously rich to play eve. i just wish pvp loot would have some actual value nowadays. inflation = meh.

Hey thats ok. Us horrible working traders will just make a few moar 10's of billions off of the lazy pvpers who buy our strategically placed slightly overmarket stuff when they go *pop* so they can quickly go back out and do the pew pew. On a related note trading is not work as I just sit somewhere and manipulate the market as I send my hauler alts on afk runs to seed markets with the stuff the pvpers dumped on my lolcheap buy orders. Dyso moon exploitation is even easier as its a huge team effort that puts very little burden on any single member. Matter of fact I hear all sorts of fun pew pew is associated with ownership of it.
Wake up and smell the profits guys.

This, tbh.
If you find watching numbers and getting rich in this game enjoyable, then great. But I don't treat eve like a job. Hell, I probably play like 3 hours a day on average, and yet I can still support my PvP habit. I don't make much but I make enough to where I can afford to fly t2 fitted and rigged HACs and lose them without flinching. And I'm as lazy as they come - I probably spend three hours a week making isk. All of the rest of my time is spent pew pewing. In short, I suck at eve. How is it that some ******* like me can earn a living but the OP can't? Cause the man is keeping you down? Please.
You are doing it very very wrong, OP. Stop worrying about what other people have and go blow some **** up.

CCP wanted there to be a few powerblocks like on the chinese server, people not sharing that desire formed too many tribes. Static moons is forcing the competative elements into the easier manageable 2-5 blocks so don't get your hopes up on the game being made more interesting anytime soon. Horde or Alliance, make your pick.
