Kaarous Aldurald ROC Academy The ROC 1556	Posted - 2013.11.19 22:20:00 - [1] - Quote If you had all your factory stuff on a planet, why would you have NOT taken steps to secure it for yourself? You failed to take it, someone else did. You have pretty much abdicated any right you had to use of that poco, then. Don't like it? Blow up the one that's there right now.

Please actually read the thread before posting stupid stuff. Like I said, I already have my stuff out of High Sec, I'm not complaining about that.. I'm trying to figure out why people are coping out of a massive opportunity. Well, I can answer that right now. Because it's funny. And there is also a possibility to profit from it, and a possibility to get good fights from it. There is no reason not to. Not posting on my main, and loving it.-á Because free speech.-á

And there is also a possibility to profit from it, and a possibility to get good fights from it. There is no reason not to. Yes there is. Like I said, you can make MORE profit by lower taxes and attracting people to your System. And more fights from those trying to take a system. If Taxes are high, the Only systems that are going to see much action are those that are strategic, close to a Hub or Low Sec. But a System with low taxes and lots of traffic is going to be profitable no matter where it is. Heh, nope. You don't seem to understand the benefits of keeping down an industry you are invested in. Suppose, for example, that I owned one or two of those planets near a hub or a lowsec gate. Discouraging people from using anything else is GREAT for me. And it all goes triple for big alliances, who don't care about the piddle of isk they can make from being nice to the carebears, but who really care about market manipulation, which they can do by shutting other people down.

And it all goes triple for big alliances, who don't care about the piddle of isk they can make from being nice to the carebears, but who really care about market manipulation, which they can do by shutting other people down. There's the thing, like I said, the Market Manipulation is not going to work, not how people think for several reasons. 1: PI Mostly comes from Low/Null/WH ANYWAY, High Sec is going to have little effect on the market as a whole. 2: By Cutting out the "Kittens" you leave nothing but Lions to contend with. If the market becomes far more difficult to control in any one's favor when all the contenders are big wigs. 3: By having high Taxes, you are encouraging people to use anything BUT yours. meaning you are loosing out for more work. 1. Yes, it does. But most of the factory planets that people use are in highsec. 2. The "Lions", as you call them, are unofficially working together anyway. When you have a few large entities who have diplomatic channels to deal with, setting up market control is vastly easier than if you have innumerable small entities. 3. Yes, which as I explained before, is a good thing if you are trying to funnel people toward a specific objective. Which is twofold in this case. Either get them to wardec you and attack your poco, in which case you get fights, or to funnel them to your specific choice and establish control over them as a result. Either way, we win.

I also had a suspicion that you guys were going to invade one or two lowsec areas and take the pocos over there, too. But it's still the first day, time will tell I suppose.

Kaarous Aldurald ROC Academy The ROC 1573	Posted - 2013.11.20 22:31:00 - [8] - Quote Mittens has to be facepalming on this one. He lowers the overall tax rate, and still they ***** about having to pay it to him, instead of burning it giving it to Interbus or whatever. I mean, you all do know the Goons could be rampantly screwing you(and you couldn't really do a damn thing about it either way), right? Not posting on my main, and loving it.-á Because free speech.-á

He was trying to get tech nerfed. He had to go. Um... The Goons are largely credited with heavy advocation for the nerfing of tech themselves, you know that right? Also, I can't believe no one jumped on me for the JFK reference... it was both offensive and topical, given that Friday is the 50th anniversary of his death. Come on ya'll.

Goons have that whole, "Scorched Earth" thing going. Given the burning remnants of TEST being an example of how that goes, I predict fairly warm relations between the two.

I think "the masses" got an abject demonstration of exactly where they are in the food chain with the last live event. They don't stand a snowball's chance in hell.
