Originally by: Xavier Perez Blustering and bullying is the best way to ensure a proper amount of fear so the noobs dont come pouring in and strip their carefully farmed arkonor dry.
What difference does it make? CCP would just spawn more for them.

Nope. The ore grows back at a set rate. If you dont tap a rock out completely, it grows back faster than poofing it. Fountain has this down to a science. they have to. It's not like Venal or Stain, with its pretty much endless amounts of land to mine over. You can actually memorize every star in fountain in a day. :) It's not a big place!

I know full well how ore spawns.
I also know that Fountain is one of 2 regions in which Arkonor still spawns. We're not talking about effective roid management. We're talking about entire regions going to bed one night and Ark spawned, and when they woke up the next day, it was just *gone*, never to spawn again.
Funny how it's also the only region that's still relatively isolated from the smuggler gate network.
Also funny is how the entire Fountain power base is based around a system with not 1, but 2 unconquerable stations, and that those stations on thier own contain everything necessary to build an alliance that can NEVER be removed.
So let's look at the equation:
1 geographically isolated region 2 unconquerable stations including cloning AND insurance facilities in YZ-LQL, and another 7 within 1 jump of YZ-LQL 6 jumps maximum to all resources, including factories, research labs, cloning and refining 1 of 2 regions still spawning Arkonor, and AFAIK the ONLY region that spawns Arkonor AND Mercoxit in the same system 1 jump to lvl 4 combat agent "Eitasena Annidhar" ------------------------------------------------ TOTAL = 1 group of prefered customers
So if CCP is willing to hand thier prefered customers so many advantages, why not a free "Spawn Ark" button as well?

Edited by: Xavier Perez on 27/01/2005 22:46:26 Actually your suspicions might have an inkling of truth about them, but I'm not one to go fanning unfounded rumors. It's definately the gem region of Eve, though, for the reasons you just stated.
Fountain are, by and large, honorable fighters, though, so I cant say they haven't earned it. They know their terrain well and use it splendidly. The old adage "Fortress Fountain" still stands as it didn't get totally raped by the smugglers gates. The image of fountain's warriors as fat, lazy, and selfish is only partially true. They are definately selfish! But then again, arent we all?

There is an easy explanation for that. LAst weeks we have like 6 empire wars and hostiles on all sides. At that time all unannounced people are there to kill us.
To us you are just another guy trying to make bad publicy for us.

I think the guys got a point about Allainces not being very nice to other locals. JQA for example could have alot of local support cos there share the synd region but there have problems in that area as many do.
As for this guy going to FA to unrent is realy just bull, you just dont pay the rent & any items can still be picked up later, if you wanted the stuff then you do mail the big ceo or someone. Also I think FA was fair in that you was locked down, most just shoot if ya 1 jump in. _______________________________________

See it's like a hummer. why do alliances gobble up and claim as many stars as they can possibly patrol, when they only need 6-7 to stay busy constantly? Why drive a hummer when a 3 cylinder suzuki mini will get you around adequately? Because it's BIG and IMPRESSIVE and REPUBLICAN!

have you tried having 500members divided on 6-7 systems?
say its 5 systems (I'm not very good with maths and this makes it easy )
thats a nice 100 people per system... and have you tried npchunting with 100 other people trying to do the same thing?
lets say there is 10belts.... thats 10 people per belt...
