Phil Exon Gallente Aliastra	Posted - 2010.02.16 19:37:00 - [1] I'm curious as to how much isk was generated by the NPC corps after the Dominion was released. At 11% rate and tens of thousands of members this could be huge. Also, analysis on how many people actually left NPC corps to join player corps to avoid taxes would be nice too. I wonder if it would make sense to have NPC corps be "privatized" and sell their shares. Those shares could then pay dividens to all members on isk collected. Why? Cause Im bored reading duplicates of the same posts over and over

So they made it so anything over 100,000 was taxable. This is the same for player corps.
Kerfira Audaces Fortuna Iuvat	Posted - 2010.02.16 20:17:00 - [5] They've not made a single ISK from me as I created 1-man corp for my characters....

One of the big arguments at the time was that it affected new players, which it doesn't due to the starting point of the amounts being taxed, this is what he was pointing out I believe.
syphurous Gallente Center for Advanced Studies	Posted - 2010.02.16 22:53:00 - [10] Well it affects their startup, so now they just buy a plex, hop in a battleship in 2/3 weeks and complain when it blows up. For those who knew the tax was coming, and are making 6 figure plus incomes we are not really affected anyway. It simply is not enough for those of us long term NPCers to feel like we need to move. It ends up being about 1% of our total income, it simply affects those moving from lvl2's to lvl3's where the isk to risk ratio suddenly jumps up ( risk is due to the lack of skills and fitting knowledge ). Most people will read this thinking it's part of my post, when its actually my sig :P
Kerfira Audaces Fortuna Iuvat	Posted - 2010.02.16 23:05:00 - [11] Originally by: Scout Ops so Audaces Fortuna, uh? Originally by: Chaos Incarnate quick, someone wardec him! this hubris cannot be allowed to go unpunished! You're all words.... No action Anyway, I've created at least 4+ corp for different characters since the tax was implemented. Not a single one has seen a wardec....

All that gets taxed are bounties and mission rewards Slade Originally by: Niccolado Starwalker Please go sit in the corner, and dont forget to don the shame-on-you-hat! ≡v≡
Ashina Sito Gallente Center for Advanced Studies	Posted - 2010.02.17 04:08:00 - [14] Originally by: Phil Exon Also, analysis on how many people actually left NPC corps to join player corps to avoid taxes would be nice too. I too would be interested in seeing this information. I doubt we will ever know the numbers though. There is no real reason for CCP to go to the effort. Then again they did post PLEX creation/sale/usage and that was an eye opener. I was never happy with this change but, it's CCP's game. The unfortunate side effect for me is that I spend more of my time in 0.0 doing exploration content then running missions atm. Most of the drops in those sites are of little value, the bounties do make up a larger portion of my income. So I do end up eating nearly the full value of the tax... all so I can have the safety from war decs.... in 0.0.... where there is no CONCORD and anyone can shoot me anyway.
syphurous Gallente Center for Advanced Studies	Posted - 2010.02.17 06:21:00 - [15] Originally by: Cipher Jones I love "sour grapes math". 11.5% = about 1%. Only Bounties and mission rewards over 100,000.00 , not my market, my contracts, my gambling, my ransoms, my player donations, or any of the many other lucrative ways to make isk. New players and those who don't have the time to learn other "trade" skills will run to missions to make isk. They are an easy and relatively risk free way of making isk. I could simply cut mission running out at this point and spend 2 hours a day making my plex a month very easily. I only need to generate 10 mil a day to play with plex. Most people will read this thinking it's part of my post, when its actually my sig :P
Terri Lam Center for Advanced Studies	Posted - 2010.02.17 10:38:00 - [16] Not surprisingly, I'm all out of rant on this topic so I'll just hit some of the big points. -NPC Corp tax == Bad. -I haven't seen it encourage people to leave, in fact only the hype before it was implemented caused people to leave [that I know of] for one man corps. -CCP trying to herd us into playing their way == bad. -Not a sand box if they are going to take that attitude towards it. -yadda - yadda - yadda ... yadda. I too would like to see the data that CCP would fabricate, most likely using a random number generator as seen here. Where the figure generated will be used to represent the number of times that every player feels they have been personally screwed over by CCP when dealing with this and a list of other issues too long to put effort into compiling. That said, I hope their wrath on my own carebearing is not too great in the future. Please forgive me, hugs and kisses, xoxoxo, Terri
Val Karan	Posted - 2010.02.17 10:50:00 - [17] NPC Corps should use their generated tax to buy up plex at a lower-than-market price, so players can donate their plex to ccp for better eve
oolk	Posted - 2010.02.17 15:30:00 - [18] They are still gathering data in preparation for the next wave(s) of ''incentives''. Probably number 12728 on the priority list.
Guillieme Lohran	Posted - 2010.02.17 15:32:00 - [19] Edited by: Guillieme Lohran on 17/02/2010 15:33:32 From just what I observed the NPC tax didn't really change much. The players who would have eventually joined player corps anyway may have left a little earlier but there was no mass exodus. It had no effect on long term members of NPC corps because it really had little effect on them. When you have someone clearing hundreds of millions in trade and running plexes, the tax on the couple million they get from running a mission once a week isn't a big deal.
