De'Veldrin Black Serpent Technologies The Unthinkables 2431	Posted - 2014.07.01 13:36:00 - [62] - Quote I actually used to live in a wormhole back before I moved to a nullsec corporation and became a RMT cartel supporting F1 blob monkey. I left because Aperture Harmonics acciedentally the whole corporation I was with. I logged in in my Niddy and discovered our POS was gone and a mail that basically said So Long and Thanks for all the Fish from the CEO. It took my alt four days to scout a route out of that wormhole that was close enough to lowsec to get the carrier out safely. Now a days I only go into wormholes if I need a fast way to highsec. I take my nulli cloaky Tengu and a probe launcher. MAMBA is recruiting. -áWhen other folks are whining about a lack of content, we go out and create it. The case of Shrodinger's Hotdropper

All the trolly C5-6 shitposting, drama loving, fight-arranging, prostitute corps are either merging, imploding, or closing down. I hope you're happy. ENJOY YOUR HOLIDAYS Nah, w-space enters the graveyard shift every summer, as it's done the last four years, and player counts have bounced back in the autumn. For some reason the subscriber numbers are on mild decline, and there's been more calls for w-space revamps, so the bounce back might be less than impressive this year. Hopefully not. The drama queen corps just change names like they do every few months, and still nobody gives a ****. I get the uncomfortable feeling that you might have taken my remarks personally, are you from one of the shitposting imploding corps by any chance?

I believe in you. No, don't feel uncomfy. I'm always having fun when I post. I'm just glad you're entertained as your dislike of party-loving wormholers alarmed me and didn't really go with your look. As for me, no, I'm from a highsec incursion corp that also does a little wormhole PI in a C1 Blackhole. I do have a few alts in FW too running plexes in stabbed Venture fleets though.

Bienator II madmen of the skies 2720	Posted - 2014.07.01 16:16:00 - [70] - Quote the main reason for me is that once you are inside you have not much you can do, its usually empty. I used them as isk source as i was new to eve - which was nice and also fun. But i don't do much pve anymore. W-space was like eve vacation - nobody around you. The other reason is that eve doesn't have fun intel tools. No radar, nothing, only a list with an update button. Being 100% dependent on it wasn't very fun too. So i decided to go to low sec where probably most people go to get fights. (however i really do like the fact that local isn't working as intel tool in w-space, but sadly eve doesn't have any fun sifi intel tools as replacement for it) eve style bounties (done) dust boarding parties imagine there is war and everybody cloaks - join FW

Having to0 constantly click a button for d-scan is annoying as hell.

At least in a WH you're creating content for someone. I find that without a good mob to provide one for them, most people would have no mentality at all.
Felicity Love Ka'ra Shabuir Inc. 1979	Posted - 2014.07.01 17:23:00 - [78] - Quote Hands down, WH's are the best part of the game. Even if you just "day trip" into C1's or 2's... you are uping your game fun factor considerably, but without all the hassles of kissing ass or greasing palms in Null. "Psssshhhhhhhhhhhhhh" -á-- That ambiguous and pseudo-technical term used by management to describe, to staff, how frakking cool something looks inside their own heads.

Malcolm Shinhwa Northstar Cabal Tactical Narcotics Team 2597	Posted - 2014.07.01 21:07:00 - [82] - Quote I liked living in a C2 just fine. But the PVP was basically gank or be ganked. In 9 months I think we had maybe 4 actual fights. The rest of the time it was cloaky spots PVEer, get dudes together to bring enough for the kill, warp to cloaky, kill kill. Not that ganking isn't fun mind you. But I can gank miners and missioners in HS with a lot less hassle. Part of that was probably my fault since I was paranoid about recruiting into corp since POSes suck. Although I did get some guys in corp, it was never enough to beat the attrition rate. Then there was the long stretches of finding no one in any hole. Days would go by without any contact. Sometimes days more before you could find something pewable. So whs fun, but you need some dudes to fight with, then you need to find some dudes to fight. "Its the pod I'm after. The ship is just a pod condom." -- Turgesson "You're a d-bag.

It's like wanting to be a part of a hunting group that specializes in hunting species to extinction. You say that like everyone who has been evicted from a hole bailed on w-space permanently. Eviction does break the paradigm and you'll get blobbed and evicted for it soon enough, but that ain't bcause ~short sighted. It's because "muh shekels," and "the blue **** must flow." Now, I don't think there's anything wrong about that. To each his own, but we all know the narrative about cultivating pvp is hilariously easy to see through. No disrespect for my w-space bros tho. Yall are just doing your thing.
ergherhdfgh Imperial Academy Amarr Empire 135	Posted - 2014.07.01 23:06:00 - [84] - Quote I used to live in worm hole space for quite a long time. that was early on. There was too much scanning and logistics were a pain living out of a PoS also a huge pain. The profits were nice enough that it was worth it but after a while there was just too many people doing it and the income potential droped. I can make more isk per hour all things considered in Known space.

WASPY69 Hard Knocks Inc. 295	Posted - 2014.07.02 01:32:00 - [87] - Quote I see a lot similar reasons being expressed in this thread. Basically, to enjoy living in a wormhole your interests gotta match the following: Hunter mentality - You enjoy the hunt and favor PVP over PVE. Isk per hour is irrelevant to you. Scanning, and more scanning - If you hate scanning you will hate wormholes. Period. Content creator - Some people sit in a POS or station expecting to e spoonfed content. In a wormhole it's up to you to take the initiative. Be Social and contribute to your corp - No one likes the silent, selfish type in wormholes. Skills - Skills as in knowing game mechanics, and being a confident and skilled solo pilot. (Applies in fleets too). Skillpoints - While not mandatory to enjoy wormhole life, know that most wormhole entities rarely fly Tech 1 ships. Be Online - Be active and be logged in as much as you can and have time to. Wormholes are no place to play 'skillque online'. Be Mature - Be respectful to others, and don't ** up local or cause unnecessary drama. Environment - You gotta enjoy the dynamic environment and constantly changing wormhole exits. Tinfoil Hats** - Always carry extra tinfoil hats. You know the moment you stop hitting Dscan you will miss those combat probes. And just because local is "empty" doesn't mean no one is cloaked 10km away from you, watching you, getting a warpin for the fleet behind that newly spawned K162. That's the basics that I can think of right now, I most likely forgot something but meh, it's 3am as I write this.
Sibyyl Gallente Federation 1854	Posted - 2014.07.02 02:09:00 - [88] - Quote I'd love to live in a 'hole But I don't know what to do I see wormholes as one of many mysterious things I haven't tried yet in the game. It'll be my treat when I finish eating the pies I do have my fingers in.. .. when everything else is gone ..
Saisin State War Academy Caldari State 86	Posted - 2014.07.02 05:03:00 - [89] - Quote Flying around WHs a lot o'fun.. Enter, check pocos ownership first, then D-scan for out of POS denizens (still a fairly rare occurrence) Assume you are being watched all the time (if they are out of POs they are cloaked) Check all the POS, most off them will be derelict, Find some ratter before they spot the k162, engage before launching any probes for best effect, then probe exit fast and gtfo. Never go through the same hole twice, always find new holes . Escalate the sleepers site without finishing them to get a future "thanks *****" from denizens... If you have spare time stay around to see the consequences (and possibly benefit from it if you can tank the sleepers yourself) If you are solo/small gangs stay away from C5 or C6 Potential to visit all space and areas of new Eden in a single roam Love probing Love WHs "surrender your ego, be free". innuendo. solo?

Period. That's the big hurdle for me, I truly loath scanning. Of course, I guess you either get good at it or die (lost and alone in the wilderness) trying. That said, the real reason I haven't tried it yet is I enjoy doing what I'm doing, and when I finally get sick of it (or someone finally sets our coalition on fire), I will probably nut up and give it a shot as a change of pace.
