You are not wrong. Null dwellers keep mentioning 60 million an hour for 0.0 belt ratting, and while that obviously is not an option for high sec, we have missioning or mining (whatever the skills of the player are best suited for).

Even a casual player should be able to make 500 - 600 million a month without breaking a sweat.

LP and LP store modules are created "out of thin air" and not created by other players. So it's a faucet, not a sink. And right now that faucet is gouting uncontrolled amounts of LP into the game, much of which is being converted to ISK via module sales (mostly implants from what I can tell).

Im surprised no one has mentionend factional warfare in the first few pages. Obviously this is one enabling people to plex as you can make several bil every other week

This is very true. After hearing about players not even breaking a sweat making over 15b, I figured I'd give it a shot as a newer player. (My other character is an L4 mission runner of no importance). So, here I am with 1 million SP, raking in a ton of FW LP with just a t1 fit condor.

All is lost, all is lost!

Hundreds of bots have come back on in the last month and all of them use plex.

Just stop. Seriously.

edit: But indeed there is WAY TOO MUCH ISK ingame.

^ This.

There is too much isk being created from nothing and not nearly enough to buy that removes the isk from the game. Almost all isk spent in game goes to other players. Yet, you can get isk created from nothing by killing rats in all areas of the game. You get it from missions. You get it from plexxing. As long as there is more isk being created from nothing that there is isk leaving the game, prices will constantly go up until you get to the point that there are player created items or rare drops that have such an astronomical price that most players won't be able to realisticly aford. This will possibly include PLEXs in the long run since most of them go to isk rich players or isk rich alliances that buy them for their players (think 0.0 tech moon holding alliances.)

So is Sparky. Sparky is my dog.

If Sparky is lost, then Sparky was your dog.

Why get an american do do it?

Buy a GTC from a US site that accepts payment in USD?

If that is RMT that I'm guilty and has been for years.

Too bad the last expansion didn't include a "feature" where you can make silly billions of isk by orbiting buttons with day-old alts. Otherwise, paying for plexes would be a serious pain.


P.S.: 'plex' can refer to:
- A deadspace complex
- Faction war button-spinning
- Pilot's License Extension item.

Get a freaking thesaurus, CCP.

lol at the people calling faction warfare an isk faucet.
