Edited by: fightnkill on 10/02/2007 05:17:17 Just a question, Where do all the big alliance gets most of their isk from? 
I know that one good method of earning isk is to farm 0.0 complex.
But any other additional methods?
For instance, BoB/D2/etc. seem to make a lot of isk Protecting and allowing corps/alliance to rent a space in their regions.
So, how does your alliance make massive amount of isk?

market + isk = materials
materials + time + BP's = product
Product + sale = more isk
repeat until wealthy
i know your thinking im being a smarta$$ , but thats it pretty much plain and simple

I hear they grow and sell drugs IRL, especially the Dutch. They peddle psychadelic mushrooms all over Europe.
Thats what i would do at least.

Edited by: Raul Khan on 10/02/2007 05:16:06 Well, its simple really. All you need to do is get some Dev's to join your corp then they'll manifest all the handouts you can imagine. That includes tech 2 BPO's, isk, information, etc...
By the way, forum moderator who *probably will* delete this post, I'm 24 hours from cancelling my 2 subscriptions for eve. Its been 8 months of struggle against an enemy that doesnt seem to stop, now I know why the enemy has been so hard to fight, I'm sad. I've read the 36+ pages of forums of outrage, and I've seen many good corpmates and friends who have already cancelled their subscriptions to this Devfest. This is going to make me sad, and I love eve, but I will not put up with this.

My crazy guess is that this part of your post is nothing but a flamebait.
Usual ways of income are: Taxes on mission running, mining, running plexes, hunting beltrats, production of t2, trading, renting out space etc.

To be honest you can warp into a belt and get a triple 1.8mill ISK battleship spawn easily enough. Thats 5.2 mill ISK + potential loot. It adds up quickly enough.
Also, a member having ISK and an alliance having ISK can be two totally different things.

Don't worry, i dislike both BoB and GS equally  BoB for popping my Expansive ship, RA/GS for kicking me out of Cache
Well anyways, if i'm right, GS's Isk life-line is much more safer then BoB's Why? Coz BoB can't cut off GS's isk line while GS can cut off BoB's by camping their plex, killing Corps/Alliance paying them, and etc. BoB prefers the old traditional way, GS prefers the new generation methods.

If everybody who threatened to quit EVE over this actually quit, it would be a better game. Too many people too intertwined with this to realise it is just a game.

That's true, but if the Dev is really corrupt, then that's a bad news for everyone cept the group that's benefitting it.

the short hand version is
a dev joined BOB gave REIKOKU t2 bpo's saber and some ammos was found out and quit RKK
later it was exposed and it gave more credibility to the rumours that have haunted bob for quite some time . personally i wouldn't believe much of the things that were/are said about bob haxoruberdevtoolsploiting , but unfortunately now with this going on it does kinda taint things .
and so now many people are being unfairly judged by the acts of one person . yeah im in d2 yeah we are fighting bob yeah were enemies ( in game ) but i really dont care i just want to shoot stuff that shoots back

We blow their ships up, take their fittings
Put fittings on market
other peeps mine and mission to replace their fittings
They buy nice fittings of the market
We blow their ships up take their fittings
Put fittings on market

4 typical sources:
- A huge amount comes from industry, techII production etc, all the big alliances have just as large an industrial base. It might not be as glamorous as the pvp side, but its just as vital.
- Organized farming of high level complexes. A good run of a 10/10 complex can net over a billion, even if you're unlucky and dont get the good stuff, you're still making a huge amount. Now just multiply that up by the number of complexes an alliance holds and you can begin to get a picture of just how much money some entities might have.
- Renting space out to client/serf/tenant/etc alliances/corporations.
