Reading that gave me massive amounts of nostalgia.
What I miss: Alliance freighter ops being the only way to seriously get goods to 0.0. Then proceeding to watch said op get ruined by a hostile gang costing the alliance most of its isk. Many alliances were crippled if their freighter ops were spotted.
POS wars. Whilst they were horrible to logistics guys I miss them. They were a simple way to claim sov any newbie could understand. It made holding 0.0 difficult and exclusive.
Want to go to Jita from deep 0.0? That was a day trip! Especially when warping to stargates was only 'warp to 15km'.
Back in 2006 I played all night and didn't sleep whilst a fleet of 50 of us shot a station to claim it.
Animosity. It doesn't feel like anyone has any hate for any other group in the game at the moment (maybe everyone hates us). When BOB was around there felt a real hatred to their existence. |

I once got 333 million isk for doing a Serpentis Hideaway that took 3 minutes, so now on I'm just gonna say a competent person can make 333 million isk in 3 minutes doing PvE. I mean, it's as stupid as what you're saying. |

I miss dual MWD pvp. I miss when an alliance was just an alliance and not a"block" when numbers wasn't as important as skill. Bring back the old Curse Alliance plox:) I miss chaining BS spawns for hours with your mates instead of 'anomalies' (is it an anomaly when it happens all the time? :S) Jukebox - Below the Astroids... No outposts... No warp to 0.
list goes on. |

So wait a minute, what you said amplified the truth of the point of what I'm saying by 10 times, yet what I'm saying is stupid? Thanks for helping prove my point btw.
No sir and/or ma'am (not judging either way, you do you boo), what I said was the truth, what is 'stupid' is complaining about plex prices when the actual per day "price" of plex is about 10 minutes of playing a video game (for 23.5 hours of access to said video game world). |

Even if you make ISK like a space poor like full clearing lvl 4 mission with sub optimal fit and a bad LP store, it's probably under 2 hours a day.
The only reason PLEX prise aren't even higher is because of lazy plebs like me who can't be arsed to grind for gametime and just input a CC number on the website because **** even having to think about adding game time. |

Well, I earned this month's PLEX while login in, I just showed my pretty face in Jita and a friendly foreigner handed me a PLEX. That's 990 million in <2 minutes.
But, won't somebody think of the noobies?
73% of EVE characters stay in high security space. 62% of EVE subscribers barely PvP. 40% of all new accounts just "level up their Ravens". Probably that's why PvE content in EVE Online is sub-par and CCP is head over heels for PvP...

On the forums good natured ribbing, pro trolling, vicious sarcasm - dunno whether it's an age/exposure thing but in general the quality seems to be dropping and there's a really mean edge to it now
And this, probably the best thread on any eve forum *ding ding*

Jenn aSide, perhaps you need to read what he actually wrote one more time. You missed his point pretty much. His point was the opposite of what you perceived. People always mention how much isk they can make in a few min. but they mostly forget to average and include scanning time, travelling time, waiting for incursion, hauling time and selling.
Sure if you only calculate the time you are in the incursion site, DED site or kill the rat in belt your numbers look impressive. But as he pointed out this is a stupid way to present your isk/hour, as the real amount will be less if averaged total time used over let us say a month.
He examplified this by saying he once got 333 mill isk in 3 minutes. He could then claim to newbies that you can earn 6.6 bill isk/hr, which would be misleading and stupid because he also has travelling time + those modules will never drop so often etc. making his effective ish/hr much less when averaged with all the time he spends doing this PVE activity pr month.
TLDR: He thinks you might be over-inflating your isk/hr numbers by not calculating in all factors, and you didn't get this point at all.
Also:
inb4 Jenn aSide chestbeating claims of 33 mill/15 min (132 mill isk/hr) is really the true average of his every single 1 hr PVE session when all the before mentioned factors are calculated in (and you need to calcaulate them in).

Never understood why they removed the jukebox.
And I still believe the old probing mechanics were better because player skill and knowledge actually meant a lot (like using the sig strength to determine the probable nature of the anom before you probed it down - not sure if people nowadays still know how to use that info).
Also stacking AB and MWD used to be fun (but that was really a long time ago).
