Browsing reddit and I saw this post from an Eve player: Just a normal fw payout
And this was the screenshot: 184,250,000,000 isk
So, assuming that the claim is factual (multiple Minmatar characters semi-afk) - should a low-risk activity in a frigate be rewarded with 184 billion isk per week? Middle age is when your broad mind and narrow waist begin to change places. -E. Joseph Cossman |

According to the anti-high sec zealots, no number is ridiculous, as long as it is not high sec. So yeah, running around with a 3 day alt in a speed tanked Incurses, with zero weapons, orbiting low sec plexes for a payout, yeah, billions and billions of ISK / week is entirely reasonable. But for a high sec player to make 1 hundredth of that, oh no, that is unbalancing the game.

this whole FW thing is dumb and CCP should be fixing it sooner rather than waiting till the next expansion to fix it, but that doesn't mean that your risk-free 120m/hour vanguard farming should come back please leave |

It appears that CCP is too busy collaborating with you null sec zealots again to fix FW. I just read about the new high sec AI that will attack drones, and then the NUMEROUS posts by the dev Fox Four gloating about it. I have to hand it to you guys. You have a well honed machine there: an enormous propaganda team inundating the forums ceaselessly with lies to further your agenda, a CSM dominated by null sec, and then some unknown quantity of very sympathetic dev's.

Well, I saw somewhere that the rewards were going to be changed to simply giving people more loyalty points instead of allowing them to severely undercut everyone else in the market. Combine that with some other adjustments and the profitability of faction warfare should drop quite a bit.
After the nerf people will once again be back on the Incursion bandwagon and people will start complaining about that again. |

When I started I made 180M a week in high-sec running ammo in destroyers.
I was keenly aware that I was a rookie and other people were doing it better than I was.
I suspected possibly a million times better, since I did this with no real research and in relative safety. I estimated this knowing that capitals were big. 
So no, I don't think it's unreasonable for a smart player who's analyzed the situation and developed a sound plan to make 180b a week. In fact, i suspect FW could pay more if you were ATK.
You mentioned it was done "semi-afk".

Who actually cares? Why go on about it?
Fred Bloggs has 500,000,000,000,000,000,000 isk bla bla. So?
Ginger Meggs has 1.2m isk. So?

So you are telling me every price spike that acompanies FW Teir 5 is not inflating the price of PLEX.  FYI there are many things that can cause inflation go reread your Freshman econ book for a few hints. 
Anyhoo... looks like CCP has finally done the math too and realizes that the FW ISK reduction in the LP store is degrading the ISK sink function of LP stores so they are taking it away ( not too soon enough ) Nostalgie ist die Faehigkeit, darueber zu trauern, dass es nicht mehr so ist, wie es frueher nicht gewesen ist. -- Manfred Rommel-á |

Just because it says estimated 185 billion, doesn't really mean it is that much. I have found many times the estimated price far outweighs the actual price due to people having outrageous prices on things, like when people want to "launder" ISK.

high-sec is full of entitled children who will throw tantrums and unsub, shoot statues and complain whenever CCP even entertains the thought of nerfing one of their hilariously easy-mode PvE isk faucets like incursions and L4s
they want to make nullsec levels of income while in highsec and demanding that CCP gives them a thick helmet, elbow and knee pads, training wheels and continues making the space safer and less risky, i.e. crimewatch please leave |

Both give LP, but one is a sink, and one is a faucet? 
Incursions give out massive amounts of ISK, and take a relatively small amount of that ISK to convert the LP.
FW gives out LP and no ISK, requiring the economy to sink ISK into it to convert the LP.

Anyhoo... looks like CCP has finally done the math too and realizes that the FW ISK reduction in the LP store is degrading the ISK sink function of LP stores so they are taking it away ( not too soon enough )
Generally speaking, Inflation is the increase in the monetary supply relative to everything else. Does FW increase the amount of ISK in the game? Nope, in fact it reduces the amount of ISK in the game. Does FW reduce the amount of everything else? Nope. Do Incursions increase the amount of ISK in the game? Hell, yes. Do Incursions reduce the amount of everything else? Nope.
Ergo, Incursions provide an inflationary pressure while FW provides a deflationary pressure on the game's economy.
One item increasing in price does not indicate inflation. In the case of PLEX, I'd say that PLEX prices indicate how easy it is to make money; prices go up when it gets easier to make money and down when it gets harder*. Regardless, PLEX is not a basket of goods, and you need a basket of goods to measure inflation.
*When making money is easier, more people want to buy them (as it takes less time to earn a PLEX) and fewer people want to sell (because grinding that ISK instead of selling PLEX is easier). When it's harder, fewer people want to buy them (as it takes more time to earn a PLEX) and more people want to sell (because grinding that ISK instead of selling PLEX is harder).

Reducing the amount of isk it takes to buy the goods doesn't make it less a sink, just less of a sink. If you spend 20M and make 80M, it's still a sink of 20M, regardless of the profit.
