You must be a dumb American.
You do realize that 63000 NOK means $10432 yes?
Or, as you dumb Americans measure it, about $130.000 per year.
In what world is that poor? Inappropriate signature, CCP Phantom. |

The problem is high sec but as I said earlier, there is an imbalance between missions and other types of income. A low sec lvl4 pays more than a high sec one, but the difference isn't big enough to justify doing them in low sec given the added inconveniences of roaming gangs and having to actually control a swath of space to run them in.
Low sec exploration pays way more than high sec exploration and since it can be run in smaller, nimbler ships, it's not nearly as problematic as lvl4 missions. The trouble is it's really hit or miss. The 5/10 and up sites are great but they are of course rare. If you really go out and try to hunt them, you may find one a week. Yes you'll make a billion isk off it on average, but a billion over the course of a week of probing and hopping around isn't actually a whole lot of isk compared to farming endless incursion sites or high sec lvl4's. But at least it isn't so boring.
Low sec lvl5's do pay better than high sec lvl4's but the problems encountered with lvl4's are only magnified with them. You can make a pretty penny that way though. I'd say it's better than high sec lvl4's, probably even with high sec incursions.
FW LP farming in its various forms pays better than just about anything you can do in high sec, but I don't expect that to last. We're going to crash the FW LP markets hard in the next few months. I expect the equilibrium will be less than that of high sec incursions since that's what it was prior to the FW changes.
I also feel obligated in this to bring up mining. Mining, anywhere in eve, is possibly the single worst thing you can do for income by a very wide margin. This strikes me as flawed.
I think all income sources should be more or less balanced at any given player "level." Level in this case refering to skills, fittings, ship and location. Example: mining veldspar in high sec with a max skilled, optimally fit hulk as part of a proper mining fleet (haulers, links) should pay equally well as running high sec incursions in a pimped blitz fleet. High sec lvl4's run in a small pimped gang should also be equally lucrative. The low sec version of any of these should pay far more obviously but once again, balanced across the various professions. This setup has never existed during my time playing eve, but it should. Players should not be forced into particular play styles simply because the devs decided to favor one above all the rest. The Troll is trolling. |

If you're only finding 1 DED site per week in lowsec you're either scanning in a terrible location (Caldari lowsec maybe?) or you're not looking very hard. I can pretty easily average a 4 or 5/10 DED site every hour by running the sites in one ship and scanning the next system in my loop in another.

How does running a lot of alts require more spare time than running one account? Actually it saves you time - Whilst my hauler transfers trade goods from one hub to another, I scan for plexes in low whilst fitting a ship Id like to try for running the site on the third.
Now doing all that using one character - that certainly requires a lot of time. Time I simply do not have due to working 60-80 hours a week.

I have been running sites, ratting belts, and the occasional pvp....yet i made a crap ton more money in high sec running missions. Now I just don't understand. Either i am doing something wrong... or I just don't understand the secrets. which is it?
p.s. so far all the 100% scan sites, ded complexes and radars, mags have come up with squat isk wise (less then 10 mil each). The only faction loot in a month of running these sites has been some ammo, and crapy items. I have noticed I might get a faction spawn 1:20-25 sites. is this normal too? I have yet to see a belt rat faction spawn.
Low sec L4 missions pay better than high sec L4 missions. Low sec exploration pays better then high sec exploration. Low sec incursions pay better than high sec incursions. Low sec ratting pays better than high sec ratting.
The issue here is you are comparing exploration with missions, not low sec to high sec. Unless you get some lucky finds, exploration pays less than missions. http://vincentoneve.wordpress.com/ |

its poor here in America. If you only make that much a year you suck and nobody will be your friend cuz you're nasty and dirty. I'm still in my tweens and I make more than that, play EVE (1char) has wife (no babies because **** that I got **** to do) pay bills, go running, and go to school at night. QQ more poorguy EVE is meant to be time consuming, just like (don't hate) WoW was years ago, and EQ etc. Then everyone grew up and started bitching that they couldn't get gear because they couldn't spend 40+ hours a week in MC So, they made it to where you log on and free epics. Please don't make EVE become "log on for free titans" or I will personally tell you you are a weenie and laugh at you. |

You do realize that in European countries that's a lot. But that's also because many state subsidized services are dirt cheap. If you earn 10k $ a month you belong to the upper middle class over here.

We should not help the poor at all. They can't feed themselves? Too bad. Natural selection at work. Why stop nature. I feel sorry that you have to support the poor even more than we do because I know getting a 3rd of my paycheck every week taken to pay for some lazy ******* really sucks.

I agree.
My salary is supposed to actually be closer to $16000 per month, but guess who gets taxed to **** to support all the parasites.
I probably feed 10 unemployed immigrant parasites for a month from my taxes.

Well i'm still a student so 0% of my paycheck goes to the poor (i don't earn enough to be taxed ). But over here the personal income tax goes to 50% once you reach a yearly income of +/- 50k$ And that's without counting the Social Security Subsidy companies have to pay (or as an independent). Taxation is over the top over here and them damn socialists just want to tax more ><
The funniest remains Francois Hollande who wants to get income taxes up to 70% for those earning 1mill Gé¼ a year in France. -Death is nothing, but to live defeated and inglorious is to die daily. |
