Well yes.. my point was that IF you refine it is still possible to get almost identical outputs as before. You are correct though the sale of compressed ores will soon outstrip refined.

Go team ccp layoffs. Do you guys actually think things through, or just play with each other. Why do you assume that this release was like OMG indy, and trust me I was like increase of mins f-n awesome. That I failed to read between the lines. POS manufacturing is pretty much in the toilet. If you factor in costs associated with building the ships with the fuel costs of your total profits. Yeah, might as well toss that. I found it easier to research BPO's before crius. WTH more clicking. Industrialists tend to be solo to just a few peeps, not a corporation. So why should I pay through a corp wallet division to build. You guys just over complicated things. And most likely you won't admit it and some peeps will be like, "Over this". CSM nice looking out, you guys are just as a waste as the dev's who push crap updates on us. OMG on the taxes on everything, I have something on this, maybe you got some RMT's who are funneling my iskies to farmers. |

The margin trading scams are down to 1) player naivety. 2) broken mechanics. 3) market "bug" that allows players to have 0 isk held in sell orders.
1) can be fixed by players making mistakes. 2) players should be penalized for "Failed" buy orders, perhaps a 5% penalty of the "Total" order, there's no penalty mechanism in the game for putting up non-fillable orders. As a side note, this feature WAS in the game once, and they removed it. 3) A buy order that shows 1 billion isk for an item SHOULD have at least 240 mil in escrow in it, meaning if the scammer uses a 200 mil item and a 1bil fake order, you could make 40 mil. Sadly that's not possible, because you could have a 1bn isk buy order, with a 0.00 isk amount in escrow. This is a "Bug" and not how escrow systems work. CCP isnt going to code a fix for this any time soon either, they are "happy" with this bug as it doesnt impact players...

5% penalty on failed orders. Removing 0 isk escrows.

False. I bought two added accounts with RL euros for over two years to build my BPO portfolio. That's RL F'ing money and most of it is LOST. Compensation? They aren't offering any at all. You are terrible at math. The minimal ME benefits from that massive research batch will probably take hundreds of years of manufacturing to be worth more ISK than what you would have gained by just selling PLEXes that you could have bought with that same RL money. People like you are the reason why CCP is switching to 10-tier ME research scale. The value and desirability of BPO's that are traded is based on the ME level. BPO's are an asset as much as any other in game item is an asset, that they can be used to make things is irrelevant to that in the same way that the value of the big red button is not linked to its functionality. BPO's have an attribute that players can alter, altering that value increased the isk value, if you could increase a number in the stats of any other item doing so would inevitably increase its value - the logical sense of it is irrelevant since humans do not value things based on logical criterea. If CCP does something that significantly alters the value of players assets then there should be a bit of a fuss made as it is contrary to the basis of the Eve economy over all. Since industrialists tend to hang on to BPO's for long periods of time they probably do not realise what the isk value of their collections is nor how that will alter (and not by a small amount) due to the patch. Just because people dont trade in something every day does not make its value irrelevant. Your Right. |

And if it wasn't worth researching them, then you shouldn't be compensated for making bad decisions. As opposed to those players who can at this moment research a BPO to lvl 10 and save a years worth of research. What's your thought on CCP gifting that free research time? 'Additional freebies'? It is a nerf to everyone holding decently researched BPOs. The only people (including myself) to benefit from the changes are those who are getting something for nothing. Although I guess the real losers are the new players who will have to 'pay' to get their BPO's researched. PS The conversion of the blueprints is a easy fix by CCP and has very little to do with trying to fairly convert the blueprints. Free cake anyone?
Your right too. CCP has Ripped us of a Massive spend in Wasted Time. This Time we had spend in other things, like make Copys, Use the BPOs to Build and other similar things, and there fore we have an Income loss.
And no im not such a Person who had BPOs mit ME > 100. This is an Real Time Wastage.
And just as an Note:
CCP Greyscale wrote:THINGS WE AREN'T DOING
After *considerable* discussion, both internally and on the forums, we have decided that we are not going to award any additional compensation for blueprints currently researched past ME/PE 10. There are a lot of things feeding into this decision, including the strong precedent it sets, the fact that no functional value is lost, and the work involved in a one-time compensation deal that could be spent on polishing up the features we're shipping. We understand that some people will be unhappy about this, and we empathize with that, but we have to weigh everyone's interests equally and we believe in this case that the best thing for the game as a whole is to convert blueprints to the new system as previously described but not make any additional changes in this area.
You are WRONG CCP, there is a Massive Functional Value lost >> Time
Other Qustion to CCP:
do i get this right that an Research for an Capital BPO to Reach ME10 Post Patch we had only to spend 1,8-2 years to get ME10 (for each ME Level that was 66-70Days at POS) and Past Patch, let me do the Math (simplified ME9 > ME10):
Level 10 = 256.000 Sec = 71,11* Hours JumpFrighter is a Rank 4000 Item
CCP Greyscale wrote:T1 ammo is rank 1; jump freighters are rank 4000
So did that mean 71,11*h x 4000 = 284.444,44*h = 11.851 Day = 32,47 Years to reach ME 10...???
WOOW, Lucky ppl who Researched that Post Patch...

It's so goonish of yours to keep propping your propaganda to shut off any dissent with some made up cool-phrases. But nobody of relevance cares about that. You are dealing with people who have made fortunes by not dressing your tinted glasses.
I would introduce you to the laws of capitalistic economy - you know, the ones EvE is meant to be heavily based on.
By those laws, industry DO perform research for a reason and their customers don't need ideology tossed down in their throats to freely choose if they want the best solution.
If my BPO costed me a lot to improve it's MY business not yours to judge. Those who purchase it, get the best possible product. It costs 300k more than competition and after subtracting that cost, it still yields the customer a saving per piece for 100k. THEY are smart at choosing me and you can go claim scam somewhere else.
Besides that, I guess all those who sell expensive perfumery and other stuff are all scammers and those who buy top perfumers are poor dumbs. We should all go around smelling raw or using cheapest perfumes due to using plastic bottling and no luxury wrapping. -íViva la Revoluci+¦n!

ah yes the 2 pyerite I saved choosing your ME1975 garde I bpc over an ME500 one was totally worth the 2m I paid for it face it you were selling snake oil
If someone bought such a BPC - he/she should have done the research -- which would take all of 30 seconds to 2 minutes to do - to see that the comparison between those BPCs was basically nil. I am fairly new to industry - have one alt pretty much dedicated to manufacturing and mining to get the mins to do the production. But with every group of BPCs I chose to purchase - was to first look and see if the BPC made sense.
I have yet to research a BPO or make copies of BPs - but I can say this --- I have taken a huge loss on the BPCs I have.
This "improvement" has practically tripled the amount of time it takes to produce - and that only because I have TE at 5 - and the amount of materials to produce has drastically increased - only offset by my having ME at 5. Then take the fact that I had refining maxed out - due to a combination of skills for the various ores, refine and refinery efficiency - AND closing the last little bit to achieve 100% refine and 0% tax by running missions for the NPC corp to achieve a standing in excess of +6.5 -- only to now receive 67% refine -- a loss of 33%.
And this is improvement? How. This mathematician - who has taught math to both adults and high school students - sure doesn't see the benefit. |

With Max skills, +4% refining implant, and 50% refine station you get exact same perfect refine on ice. You get about 98% of previous on ore. You have to take into account the new ore batch sizes and the fact they increased the total mins in the ore. So yes, while in the UI it says you are getting 69% (or whatever), it is still possible to get the same amount of mins from the same amount of ore as before (or at least REALLY close). do not refine in a highsec sell the compressed ice or ore and buy minerals/topes with the proceeds
You Goons would love that right??? More opportunities to gank the guys who are not in the game for PvP

Thanks I will check that out on my alt that does the refine. Worst case scenario is that it will give me better refine than now. Will also have to check to see the ore/mineral refine results and compare them. I do hope you are correct - and if proven correct - I will gladly post a retraction - as it would give a real value then to the implant which prior had no real value. |

To say that CCP GÇ£don't like the margin trading scam being possible, they just don't have good ideas to fix itGÇ¥ is really an insult to the intelligence of the CCP team. Of course, it is a given that most software programmers are not market experts. It is also a given that most gamers are not market experts. But, that stated GÇô there is at least one (and probably more than one) expert in marketing and economics on the CCP team. [Based on the one CCP speaker who spoke at Evefest and was recorded as giving his credentials as an economist.]
There are several ways to address the Margin Trade Scam. Two of them are fairly easy. Two other ways that I will suggest below would require more thought and time in the software code development.
1. Eliminate both the Margin Trade skill and game mechanic. Give SP to each character that has trained the skill equal to the number of SP the skill/level required of the character to train it. The SP could then be invested in other skills by those characters. This would create momentary pain for those who used this skill GÇô both those who used it legitimately and those who used it to scam. But the ability to ever scam again using this game mechanic would be ended.
2. Eliminate 0 ISK escrow and charge a percentage of the total buy order with the percentage being paid to the seller. No exchange of product. This would not eliminate the scam, but would give a minor recompense to the person scammed. Set this percentage within a range of 5 GÇô 10 percent of the order.
3. Flesh out the Margin Trade game mechanic to more closely resemble out-of-game market mechanics (e.g. real-world conditions). Game mechanic would result in the product being held in abeyance until all funds are paid to the seller. At that time, the buyer receives the product. In the meantime as the buyer earns ISK (from whatever source) it is paid directly into the sellers wallet. A set period of time could be established for completion. Since the mechanics are already in place for time delay (PI, manufacturing, contracts) apply the same time mechanics to the Margin Trade. At the end of that period GÇô a period determined by CCP (24 hours, 96 hours, 14 days, etc.) if the Buyer has not completed payment, the seller keeps all ISK from the sale and all of the product.
The advantage in this mechanic is that it enables the seller to know (s)he will not lose on the transaction while also enabling the legitimate usage of the Margin Trade mechanics for those situations were a buyer is suddenly caught without the ISK to cover the buy. At the same time, scammers would be held totally accountable for trying to run a market scam with this mechanic. It would effectively end scams.
This 3rd option, is the one that most closely resembles real-world markets.
4. Eliminate the 0 ISK escrow. If the trade immediately fails due to insufficient funds in the buyerGÇÖs wallet, all ISK in the wallet and all ISK in the escrow is paid to the seller in increments that match the per unit price posted in the buy order. The buyer then receives that number of items as the available ISK can purchase. This is a variation of option 2 above, whereby the scammer is now in possession of overpriced merchandise and out the ISK to buy those items at the price set in the buy order. While it would not totally eliminate the scam it would make it far less palatable than a token percentage loss.
Of course I donGÇÖt really expect any of these suggestions to be acted upon by CCP as many in the CSM would suffer to one degree or another if they were implemented. By this statement, I do not imply that any of the CSM actively support or participate in such scams but some of them are in corporations/alliances where one or more members do actively participate in such scams. |

Is that fine if i'll petition to refund me my SP from Advanced Industry? I dont want 768k of SP just for 5% reduction in Time. I can handle that 5% of time somehow.. Its completely unfair to change the skill value and not giving to us an option, to choose or not to choose.
Please dont tell me, I've used this skill before this patch, and already got a profit. I want to be always in profit, so this is why I've trained it to 5.. for forever.. Not for the time, when devs will change it and it will not work how it supposed to be work.
Please CCP. If its possible, let us know. I will ask for a refund of SP. Take out that Advanced Industry at 5 from my skills.

Lovely. Now they said they weren't going to buff the nullsec insanely while nerfing everyone else. They also said they were giving POSes a boost. Instead whoopie, nullbears get half ******* cost on their jobs! Thanks CCP! wtf! Instead whoopie, they tore out the bonuses to anchoring extra arrays so people NOT in nullsec have NO ABILITY TO GET ANY ADVANTAGES OR LEGS UP. Thanks assholes!
Additionally, thanks. You ruined the advanced industry skill which used to be very good and was almost a requirement so we spent all our time on getting it and now it's utterly useless. Who cares about 5% bonus to time? NOBODY. How about we all just petition to get a nice refund of our god damn SP since nobody wants or needs this skill trained at all? I expect my damned time back I paid real money for to have my account active for that time.
Now as well we just watch as nullsec prints isk with their very low production costs at the outposts, and those that spent the time to set up a pos in a backwater system in lowsec with no stations get ****** once again. We have twice the job cost of the nullbears who run CSM and as usual NEVER get any say unless we are represented in CSM by being a peon in a giant alliance. What the hell is with this?! |

This has been said many times here but I'll say it again. If you have ever sold BPCs you would know that a 500 ME BP sells a lot faster than a 250 ME BPC even if the difference in benefit is only 1 trit and in most cases you can get more isk for the BPC. Also the only way to sell BPCs is in contracts which is much more expensive than the market as well has having a max time of 2 weeks so every contract that does not get purchased is a sizeabe hit. So if you are selling BPCs it makes really good business sense to research them higher than makes sense for building. So it was not a bad decision.
To your other point of once you make isk from something it's ok to take it away so under that logic if you fit out a deadspace fit marauder and kill one rat with it and collect a bounty it's ok for CCP to replace your ship with a T1 ship and T2 mods then since you've already made isk from it?
The point is that people put time and effort into a business model that worked for them and was a steady stream of modest income. CCP is removing that from game, a game in which they claim that they reward that kind of effort.
While we are on the topic of this expansion destroying business models there was a profession that developed around trade and loot reprocessing that while it has not been removed has been gutted so heavily that many people who leveled alts with trade and reprocessing skills and then spent months grinding standing with various NPC corps to get perfect tax free refine are wishing they had not wasted what in some cases was years to get to that point. |

Start one job yesterday (the evening before the Crius update) and go to start same job today (after Crius update). Pre-Crius update takes 3 1/2 days to build - Post-Crius takes 9 1/2 days to build. And this is an improvement how????
In this particular case - I was working with a BPC for Plutonium Charge L. The BPC in both cases was for 1500 runs. I had obtained multiple copies - and been running them in batches as I am able due to having far more copies than slots that I can run (ME and TE are both maxed for my industry alt). So it was a good comparison - apples to apples - NOT apples to oranges.
Pre-Crius it took 4 minutes (with no modifiers for skill) for a single run - now, for no explicable reason it takes 15 minutes.
I hope rason isn't bringing the market prices up and thus having more ppl paying more $. its legit to want ppl pay but this brute force way is simply unacceptible |

CCP Picture this....
U are pinned down to a table and a huge black as montherfucker who has long gone lost his will to live is behind you, raping you so hard in the as that you canGÇÖt breathe. Everything you learned has gone to waste and all your investments are getting drained from your wallet by the next room *****. On top of that the current tax system in your country has decided to put extra tax on your house, all your charts and all your factories. Make note that you already made a huge investment not to use the governmentGÇÖs assembly lines more than absolutely necessary to protect your assets and your investments. This has made your production very unpredictable, harder to do, longer time to do and with a much higher risk of your opponents to steal or destroy your invested chats. The worst part is when you punch the numbers; you know itGÇÖs going to take you the double amount of time to produce from your charts compared to before. As you lying there in agony, all you can think of is how huge and impact this will have on your friends. And when you ask the government why, they simply answer; we only want to benefit the perverts in our society and there is nothing wrong with making the heart of eve paying for it.
Here is a very important message to you CCP and I want you to freeze that on your retina. A productionist does not produce for fun; he/she produces only for profit nothing else. It will never change even if youGÇÖre trying to make things look nicer, witch you failed miserable in fyi. I am sorry for using questionable language but donGÇÖt expect me to be nice when youGÇÖre steeling from the time to have fun in eve.

There are a lot of things feeding into this decision, including the strong precedent it sets, the fact that no functional value is lost, and the work involved in a one-time compensation deal that could be spent on polishing up the features we're shipping.
Issues Feedback threads wrote: Known Issues:
Blueprints that are locked inside any container cannot be used to submit or deliver jobs. Jobs Tab shows BPOs instead of BPC during an invention job Assembly Arrays have not been updated correctly. E.g. Corporate Hangar Array cargohold is still 1.4m instead of 3m "Job cannot be completed as it has already been completed" message when delivering jobs The number of available Science Jobs in the UI is sometimes displayed incorrectly. Jobs may appear available even if all possible jobs are running. (Current workaround is to restart the client). Facilities are not ordered correctly Reprocessing yield tooltip sometimes displays the incorrect % yield. Cannot reprocess Gasses Research job output does not reflect the new efficiency levels when viewed in industry Some Reverse Engineering jobs before the update cannot be delivered Graphical corruption in the form of a red flicker around window borders, etc. Current workaround is to set client to DirectX9 (Open the Launcher, click on the Cog - upper right hand corner, select DirectX tab, choose DirectX 9) - Dedicated Thread Cannot install into a corporation structure without access to the corporation wallet funds. Refreshing of blueprints in the blueprint browser might be delayed in some cases Tech 3 Materiel Requirements are too high (by about 10%) Some Tech 2 items contain Tech 1 materials are requirements The Industry UI will display a base price as the job cost for activities when trying to view them in systems where there are no available facilities of that type. (E.g. If you are looking at a Manufacturing job for a ship and preview it in a facility that does not have Manufacturing cost you will get a very high quote) Reprocessing window does not update the output when reprocessing subsequent items Selecting a team when viewing an Invention or Reverse Engineering job will prevent you from submitting the job. The current workaround is to reset all settings via the ESC menu Completed or stopped jobs cannot be delivered (applies to numerous cases including jobs at Starbases) The Industry tab on ores are displaying blank Resolved:
Mining Crystals and the Perpetual Motion Unity display a 0 second invention time. Once the job is submitted, it will run with the correct time of the respective item. Setting facility tax at POSes might take some time. Blueprint show info does not reflect ME level Jobs on Arrays that are destroyed are not completely removed from the UI Rapid Equipment Assembly Array missing 5% ME penalty ME and TE jobs require access to Division I for materials regardless of where the job is installed from. ME and TE research cost scaling formula is not correct.
Evidence would seem to suggest it wasn't your release you were polishing.

a scam that will get your site blackholed by google when they find you've been deceiving their users by abusing their algorithm with tricks that gave you more attention than your content deserved? what a good analogy, im glad we're on the same side of this issue Have you EVER worked on SEO? Does not seem so. i have not worked in optimizing scam sites to get better google rankings then complained when google's update blackholes my site, no

if you knew anything about SEO, of course, you'd know that google changing the rules of the game to punish people who try to exploit flaws in the ranking algorithm to get undeserved attention - like bpo plumage!
