I really have to laugh at the idea of paying $10 to read/post on an internet comedy forum, when you could read many fine sites with cool opinions and views such as Reddit, or 4chan, or even the EVE forums. |

To give some contrast, as tech moons are limited to the north (eve in easy mode IMO), getting enough moon goo to actually achieve a great profit is hard and requires a lot of hauling. BUT we have enough to have a ship replacement program for sanctioned roams and all CTA's. Currently, though, we do not have a capital investment program.
When you say "null sov alliances that make trillions off of moon goo" you are talking about tech moons, which are owned by PL and Goons.... currently (due to them being in "better space" I am not for balancing space but there needs to be benefits to going to other regions, but this is for another thread... someday). In order to make trillions off of the other stuff, like plat, mercury, chromium, hafnium, even neodynium only makes like a few billion a month and that is with 15 - 20 poses.
*looks up and sees previous posts* Who would ever pay to be a part of a forum? That is just stupid. |

the tech in one place makes sense, when the tech isn't shared (OTEC)... goons claim to enjoy pvp, but apparently not in their home...
or maybe their leadership likes their main income source, and don't wanna give up their personal cap fleets |

payment is optional and is a requirement for registered members who want no ads, and being a paid member is one of the requirements for joining GSF
I've seen people pay full subscription fees to games they don't play anymore just to post on the forums.
also reddit and 4chan get a metric ton of cash from ads, but the simple fact is if you want a robust, decent, functional service for more than 20 people you need to pay cold hard cash, frequently
The American public's reaction to the change was poor and the new cola was a major marketing failure. The subsequent reintroduction of Coke's original formula, re-branded as "Coca-Cola Classic", resulted in a significant gain in sales, leading to speculation that the introduction of the New Coke formula was just a marketing ploy |

PVP in our home is the most fun, that means we don't have to listen to dbrb stories while travelling.

Once again the OP's ignorance is astonishing, OTEC =/= CFC, we shoot at the other people in OTEC (PL,NC. etc.) all the time while enjoying the fairly shared, wholesome pie that is tech. We just all band together to shoot at poor people when they try and take a piece of our pie. |

From the SA EVE thread:
"The truffle pig or "DBRB" is a pig used for locating ships of the capital, supercapital or freighter class in nullsec space in EVE Online. The pig has a good sense of smell and is able to identify capital ships from as far as 5 regions away. Once a capital has been identified, the pig emits a keening sound referred to as "barkbarkbarkbark" which summons swarms of peculiar creatures known as "goons", which will immediately attack and attempt to destroy any ships in the area, even if they are not capital-class vessels. This will occasionally result in the death of the pig.
If the pig is unable to sniff out any of these ships, after a while it will instead begin to speak, regaling any nearby listeners with tales about its life and past experiences. There is evidence that extended listening causes irreversible brain damage, but whether this is a defensive mechanism or simply an evolutionary oddity is unknown." |

I don't PvP so I never actually have to worry about getting a ship replaced.
However, I have access to systems to sell goods I manufacture at better profit margins then if I was't where I am, as well as the ability to research and invent easier then I could in hi sec systems. To be honest, I don't even know how you do research or invention in hi sec, no station I've ever been in has ever allowed me to do it.
I don't really care what they do with the isk they make, and I would never expect them to give any to me when they provide me with opportunities I didn't have before, as well as a fun place to play. I don't know why I, as a rank and file member, would expect goons to pay me to play were I otherwise couldn't. |

Dont believe these lie. The lowlife member of the CFC alliance are not allowed to see even a dime of the two trillion isk a tech moon brings in each week. It is confiscated by the alliance directorate in the most complete darkness. We are forced to defend these moons during mandatory CTAs.
We have to pay 250m each month in order to fund our ship reimbursment (althrough it is a widely spread practice, even Nulli Secunda does it), and are forbidden to interract with empire. All importation and exportation have to go through the alliance, which in turn also decide of buying and selling prices. Running your own transport ship to jita is an offense worth an immediate ban from all CFC alliances.
But we still put up with that because we want to get our hand in the corp wallet |

Fully supporting this post.
Ultimately, the rank and file in nullsec lives on standards lower than even the seeping slums of lowsec are used to:
Completely subdued and drained of anything that even begins to resemble a will to resist. Only a few proud remain.
Kaesong Kosmonauts are here to spread the truth about nullsec's horrible conditions.
People need to wake up. It doesn't have to be this way.
Unlimited riches lie in space, just waiting to be spread among the common people.
But there are forces opposing the equality of men, lurking in the upper echelons of the biggest corporations.
Both complacent and malevolent, they control where the ISK flows. And it's not where it should go.
In due time, an end will be put to this madness. There will be no choice left but to submit to the Juche way of life.
Every pilot currently in nullsec will be represented by one person, dear leader, and the masses will reign through him.
Soon, everything will change. Keep your eyes open. |
