J'accuse, mon petit Fromage, J'accuse.
But really, glad to hear you're looking into ROI on these.
That said, more structure bashing... *sob*

Probably safe to assume 1, then be pleasantly surprised if it's more. |

Ahhahahahahaha... No.
Hiseccers aren't in lowsec because they're neurotically risk-averse. If it were sec status, they'd be in FW. |

Next you'll be telling me a sum of an infinite series of positive numbers cannot converge to a finite value. Besides, CCP doesn't need to change it daily, weekly, or even monthly. There isn't continuous flotation of reference values. They're not magically varying numbers.
.9999999...=1 (without rounding) Still pisses me off. I accept it as true because it is, but my mind doesn't do well with that type of infinity.
Unfortunately, this isn't an infinite series. This isn't really a series, as there's no way to procedurally generate the next number in the series. It's a set that changes at the whim of CCP.
That said, I doubt CCP will change it often (if Ever <.< >.> FW, etc) So equilibrium will be approached or reached, then CCP will change it and a new equilibrium will arise.
EDIT: Whoops, the infinite series thing was a crack at Cygnet, ignore my bit in the middle there. |

If you have 12 planets over two accounts making 10 p2 per hour per planet, then you within 5 months the POCOs will have paid for themselves in the amount you save in taxes. Those claiming they will get blown up, if you are the only one using those planets, then chances are its a pretty dead system in general. Furthermore, the prices have already almost doubled so even PI in high sec is profitable again.
Things change. I think this new feature has a chance of being alot of fun and opening doors to new types of players throughout New Eden. I really hope CCP do not listen to everyone complaining because the feature is working exactly as intended. Once the market calms down from everyone's "THE SKY IS FALLING" mentality, things will probably be more expensive, but they should be because of the indicies.
It all makes sense. Stop whining over spilt isk. I respectivly disagree, the changes will effectively squeeze out small and independent players This is shutting doors rather then opening them. I think the changes will make null and wh PI more interesting but makes low and high sec PI less attractive.
So it's boosting the income of people who're willing to work together at the expense of the income of those who are not? Working as intended. |

He is a RL Lawyer, after all.
Poor taste? Eh f*** it.
As for the Goons mining and doing PI, I'd bet there are plenty of them doing both, but they don't have mandatory combat ops. They protect their space through volunteerism. Why in the world would they have mandatory mining ops? |

Stop by my office, and get the form filled out in triplicate, have it notarized, and I'll consider calling you that. BTW: what bar are you before? Nevada?
I'm often in front of any bar that hasn't 86'd me yet, but I suspect you were asking Mittens. |

Damage Control? Goons? Goons don't do PR damage control, they do PR damage amplification. They're kind of funny(sociopathic) like that. |

Make sure you post your findings. That wasn't the point and you know it. The point was that being super defensive of a given subject makes goons look like they're guilty of something. It's sort of like: 'Who ate some of the cookies?' 'I have NO IDEA where those two cookies went! and even if I did, i certainly wouldn't have eaten them both while you were in the other room!'
The depths have already been dug. (They weren't that deep anyway). Goons have been driving oxytopes up through coordinated suicide ganking. Before starting they bought enormous stockpiles of it. The alliance now has even fatter stacks of cash. The evidence for this is in the many posts where the Goons told the public their plan and how they were going to accomplish it.
... Wait, this is the Goons are mean about PI whine thread, not the Oxytopes whine thread.
This thread's OP was about how the POCOs would likely affect PI based on the SISI taxes. In some cases, the SISI taxes were 50-100x lower than what made it to TQ. Somehow this became the Goons fault (I still don't get that logical leap).
And if you were talking about digging into me, I'm former WI. Goons NOMed WI. FREE WIDOT. Hole pre-dug for you to search (it's like taking viagra on your way to the airport).
Besides, Goons make too many funny things happen in EVE to possibly dislike them for very long. |

Now the small Corp living there have replaced all the Interbus with POCOs and have set the tax rate to something like 100%.
Have you tried opening negotiations for a lower tax rate? I would propose a flat fee per month for gauranteed reasonable rate. The lease provides opportunity and the tariff provides the revenue stream. At least talk to them first. - MR
Another alternative: You know these new POCO's are destructible, right? So go destroy them and put up your own. |

Nah that's the Green Goon Fairy, hard to say who that is, but I'd lay odds on some of the WInoDOTers. |
