Campaign says 11b in two days. There's some choice kills in there. Nightmares and whatnot.

Nice work, any possibility of getting videos?

I need to get FRAPS registered and start recording. It's planned, yes.

Now, I don't like highsec Incursions. It's not that we think less of incursionbears than we do of, say, mission-bears. It's that incursions in high sec pay too damn much. It's basically some of the best money in the game outside of owning a tech moon and therefore all kinds of people are just sitting in highsec doing those, rather than doing something more creative or going out to null or whatever. In our opinion, it's a stagnating influence.

Actually you can use the free version of fraps, it just has Fraps written at the top of the screen.

Other than that there's no difference.

I'm a gambling man. Care to put a wager on this?

Call it a channel test for security. If you can influtrate our channel and do it with me in fleet I will send monk 100m AND I will even eat my pride and offer you a war dec contract in a few months if you guys are still functional. If I catch you once all I'd like in return is an acknowledgement here. Now I keep my promises, contracts and wagers.

So what say you sir?

[quote=Psychotic Monk]It seems you boys want to build yourselves up a name as bad boy griefers, but of course are less forthcoming about all of being funded by high sec carebearing through your incursion and industry corporations.

I have never in my life run an incursion, and I abandoned any pretense of industry a long time ago.

What money doesn't come from the wrecks of our targets, I get through wormhole exploration. That can pay about as well as highsec incursions, only you're operating in nullsec without a local channel list.

So much for your theories.

It would be foolish of us not to use all the tools available to us in the same way that we have neutral logi available even though I believe that neutral logi not getting aggression for repping people sucks as a mechanic.

Besides that, I'm not arguing for the elimination of incursions. Honestly, it's neat content. I mean the whole constellation slightly changes color and gets invaded by spike-covered zombies? That's cool. I am argueing that the isk-to-risk ratio needs to be changed.

Also, you're forgetting the other major reason we're doing what we're doing: We want to. Even if it didn't have these secondary effects that we are really pleased about we would probably still do it.

edit: Here's my take on Incursions. They make as much isk as I did running wormholes, but in the safety of highsec. They are wrecking the value loyalty points, making the game harder for casual mission runners who don't have the time to chase incursions and put together fleets (no I don't do missions either) in what time they have to play. They are creating a steady stream of stuff going into the market without much being taken out, resulting in general inflation.

Incursions NEED to be more dangerous, because as they stand now they are just isk printers driving up the price of everything and hurting everyone who isn't being an incursion bear (except maybe the self-sufficient wormhole corps).

This may be true. Your other character, Floppietheminingclown (love your originality by the way) could indeed be a wormhole explorer.

Your CEO does have these other carebear corporations I'm talking about, and that's not a theory. Ask him about the high sec POS he lost a few weeks ago. It's location was provided to certain parties courtesy of Corporate Catering.

Of course, it's just business at the end of the day and should you kids require a bespoke buffet of your own, I'll see what I can cook up.

Nope. His name should tell you what I made that account for. The role has evolved quite a bit since then, but I have no problem stating that that character remains purely a support role. If I had wanted to hide him, I'd have named him something less obvious. No, if you look back at my history of posts in the forums and my killboard losses before joining the skunkworks, it should be obvious that I do my excursions with my main (this one).



I'm well aware of what Monk and some of the others have been up to, and to what ends. You, however, can only guess and feign insight.

.

Mind to elaborate, what seems to me, is a solid proof of your cluelessnes?
You know, "a steady stream of stuff going into the market" lowers inflation.

PS:
Saying highsec incursions is one of the best ISK features is a bit flawed. You do realise that highsec incursions only pay out 60 % of the reward that is paid out in nullsec and lowsec?

And a last thing, about 30-40 billion isk is being generated in highsec incursions at best peak times during the week an hour.
You need to step your game up a bit more before we notice anything on our wallets.
