Ow look, another mentally challenged person.
Same class of rejects who thinks that being russian is being a race is the same kind of idiot who thinks russia is a communistic country.
Ow and no I am not of russian nationality nor am I a communist.
Not a Russian, nor a communist, just someone who takes things a little too seriously. |

Originally by: Killer Gandry I sincerely think that EVE has a lot of idiots.
Being russian isn't being of the russian race, it's the russian nationality.
So no Tye Coon, you're not a rascist, you're an illiterate nobody with no idea whatsoever about what you're talking about.
Wow dude, you sound like your profiting from the marcos... chill out, I only asked a question because it seems that 50% of space is off limits to english speaking players and wondered why...

This game was designed by Icelandic Russians, for Russians and your shocked that Russians excel?
From where you're kneeling it must seem like an 18-carat run of bad luck. Truth is...the game was rigged from the start.

Originally by: Ildryn Became a Russian game when CCP decided they would enact very little in the way of punishment for macroing and botting.
Russian RMT is big buisness. CCP refuses to get serious about it.
Actually that is not what is really going on. CCP tries to keep it a secret, but it doesn't take a genious to see what is really going on, if you just know where to look. Not many are aware of this, but CCP did in fact try to crack down on them. They were forced to stop at the request of the Icelandic government.
It appears, that as a retaliation to the CCP crackdown the Russian government threatened to call in all the loans they gave to Iceland during the financial meltdown. The russians demanded that CCP had to immediately cease all their actions against russian nationals and restore the account of someone with the username "the gray cardinal". I don't know what that account restoration was about or why the Russian government would get involved, but as long as they have that stranglehold on Iceland's ******* CCP isn't in a position to crack down on them.

I've actually done a little homework on this myself in the past. Unfortunately with the recent economic hardship in Iceland. Russian banks and private investors (Russian Mafia) took the opportunity to bail out Iceland in the form of loans and other investments.
And as significant portions of Russia's industry, finicial and governmental institutions are very much run by mafia gangs. So It comes to no surprise that any method of earning a profit (and Vodka) no matter how unconventional, like farming and selling virtual currency. Will be exploited.
And no doubt this puts CCP between a rock and a hard place when it comes to dealing with it.

I just find it hard to believe that there is that much money to be made macroing in this game....

Originally by: Selinate Try going to russian space and accusing them of botting sometime, especially when they obviously are.
It's hilarious watching them try to insult you in English
I think ive just discovered my new hobby.
Last time I did this, this is what was said to me (paraphrased, can't remember exactly what was said)
Russian: "Is this what you do with your free time? Ah? You need to get out some. Get a girl. Before I get on, I made a puzzle with my girl, and other stuff too! Now I need to go to gym, because I get out!"
Funniest part was the fact that he logged back on maybe an hour later, and I logged off, 14 hours later, I logged back on, and he was still out ratting.

In Russia a lot of guys spend evening either drinking or playing computer games since we lack proper entertainment infrastructure. You won't find many decent cafes, cinema theaters, places for children to hang out after school, etc. especially away from capital (Moscow). Another reason is that people simply don't make enough money to go on holidays or to invite their spouse to a restaurant at least 2-3 times a month. Most of the cash goes to pay for rent (86% of young people rent or live with parents and can't afford to buy their own flat) and whatever is left is spent on food and clothes. Internet on the other hand is wide spread and is very affordable, especially in big cities.
So you get plenty of guys in the evenings flying spaceships, 'raiding' in WoW, and doing stuff in some other popular MMOs out there. Russian players tend to stick together since they prefer to play in groups (more fun, more rewarding). And since most of us struggle with English - non Russian speaking players are not allowed in those groups.
So that's basically it, botting has nothing to do with it. All major alliances run bots since CCP allows that. They do it not for profit but for the simple reasoning 'Why not make extra isk to burn on pvp while I'm asleep?'

Russian literature all. They've got some great food culture (heh, ironic, but true) as well.
We got alot to learn from our russian overlords. - I'd tell you why but then I'll have to kill you. And to kill you I'd have to log in. And to log in I'd have to stop browsing these forums. Both you and me knows that'll never happen. |

That would not be racism. Stop using the word when you don't know what it means.
As we all know, EVE is not dominated by Russians. It's dominated by the people of Iceland. It just doesn't show it on the map.
Only stated i'm not rasict upfront to avoid the "so what if it's russian what you got against them" response.
Only issue I see with this is most russian alliance/corps ONLY take russian speakers on, thus limmiting what 50% of current .0 space for english speakers? I may be totally off here but eh.. was just a thought.
The Russians rent to non Russians, though you don't get access to the Russian speaking intel channel. Spire Collective is not Russian, Intrepid Crossing not russian, ECLIPSE is spanish speaking, Bloodbound. not Russian, etc. It takes more patience and an understanding that communication is slow back and forth (unless you have a native speaker in your corp). Helpful to keep a translator program handy, while not ideal it can get basic ideas across to both sides.
Thoughts expressed are mine and mine alone. They do not necessarily reflect my alliances thoughts.

The Russians I've played with and against were pretty hard core about EVE, and good at it too. I suspect that with little better to do with their entertainment time and money, this can lead to kicking ass at EVE in ways I myself simply don't have time to. So no surprise that they kick ass and own a lot of ****.
It is a double edged sword though, yes, they kick ass at EVE, but then again, the best they can achieve with their lives is to kick ass at a video game, which is kinda sad. And yet I am still jealous of their in game success. By the way, real men biomass when they emoragequit.
