Jesus christ this thread is a ****ing comedy gold mine. Not a single good ****ing suggestion here. Not one.
The problem is the ISK faucet, not corp taxes and ****. The easy way to move around this is to lower bounties across the board, and instead provide other incentives. W-space is full of people, and they don't contribute anything to isk inflation. Nullsec can just lower bounties and raise drop rates on higher meta mods or deadspace loot. Missions could shift the focus of their rewards to high meta mods and loyalty points.
Yes, this will hurt the income of people who run missions, complexes, and anomalies, but unfortunately they're basically printing money atm. There needs to be a rebalancing of this, and the only way to preserve the benefits of those tasks without printing money or making mining even more ****ty(see drone drops and mass reprocessing of mission loot) is high meta drops, which have high value but reprocess at the rate of Meta 1 drops. I mean christ, arbalest heavy missile launchers go for like 12 million. They don't contribute to the decline in ore values because they're a specialty good, they don't inflate the market, and they still give the people who grab them decent income.
Tax rates effect everyone, not just mission runners. Need to hit the isk faucet, not the isk sinks.

Originally by: Last Star Fighter While the rest of you do wild speculation on where most of the ISK injection comes from blaming anyone but yourself; perhaps you should refer to the hard facts of the QEN published by CCP themselves. A vast majority of players live in empire and that is where a vast majority of the ISK is coming from.
Deal with it.
It is either a much higher tax or the payout (including LP and items dropped) has to be decreased 50%. This game needs the ISK injection to be put in check ASAP.
And for the record, LOYALTY POINTS AND ITEM DROPS DON'T CONTRIBUTE TO THE ISK FAUCET. Those items are traded with other players(indirectly, in the form of LP), while isk rewards are printed money. |
