A long and costly war it has been so far, while BoB were losing less ships due to their superiority, the enemies loss was spread amongst many alliances, and BoB lost much more isk/ship as they used more expensive stuff.
Then came the disaster: all that iskies-t2-productionmachines run by BoB in empire took some serious beating by invention, prices of t2 items went down to half or even one third. This was not expected, when BoB started the whole campaign.
A lot of people now ask, when does BoB runs out of isk ? Well let's search for signs ... what does a government do when it runs out of money ? Right, it increases tax.
And now we look at BoB corps, if we can detect that sign, and voila: Reikoku 49% tax, Evolution 80 % tax. 80%, dam they must be in desperate need of isk 
So what will come next ? Will BoBs pilote switch from t2 to named/t1 fittings ? Will the taxation for the pets be increased ?

Personally I'm no bob fan, all the allagations soured that. But for heavens sake do some research on your stated "enemies" first.
Evol is pretty much cradle to the grave socialism/communism RKK capitalist/socialist mix some says you work for corp some days you work for yourself.

I have thought about that too. I agree that invention would hurt BOB more than any other alliance.
I don't know if BOB helps it's members replace their losses while in fleet warfare but if they do, I imagine they are getting a lot of big bills. If they don't replace the losses, I imagine they have some members running on empty by now.

Edited by: Shai Faetal on 26/05/2007 06:04:02 some are ran in communist mode and they always had high tax, nothing new or anything like them running out of isk soon.
if the invention is hurting bob then it is killing d2. ________________

Edited by: DeltaH on 26/05/2007 06:03:54 While T2 item prices dropping, T2 component prices are rising. Guess who has a lot of POS?
Also, the drop in price for T2 items is skewed in favor of high SP players. The less cost differential between T1 and T2 means the difference comes down to purely the SP required to field the gear.

This is highly incorrect. Evolution has 100% tax, and has had for 4 years. Anything else?

I knew dropping the tax from 100% was a bad idea.

BNC's tax is at 10% and pretty much always has been.
If you look up the definitions of the words "different", "corporate" and "models" then string them all together into a short phrase that you can apply to this situation you may just possibly find a clue.

Yes! To me, 100% tax equates to 0% tax since at 100% doing things that generate tax, no longer generate any isk for oneself. so you basically make all the isk for your members with assets and pets and Evolution members just coast? Wow, invention must be hurting bad! CCP: please fix the asteroids in the new regions.

Edited by: Jotan Veer on 26/05/2007 06:23:40 You know, when a CEO doesn't want to see people in ratting ships but in pvp ships he raises the tax to 100%. It works wonders.

Between the months of access to "broken" complexes, their mighty T2 BPO production, and cozy relationship with the devs, I believe their pockets are quite deep.

I guess its time for me to go collect cans from dumpsters to recycle for $$ to buy some gtcs to keep us afloat. I was also thinking we could issue some war bonds.

Edited by: fire 59 on 26/05/2007 07:55:51 Not being funny mate but wouldn't you think that an alliance that dedicates itself to war would constantly be trying to stay one step ahead and prepare for things like invention and get in on it or make alternate arrangements. It's not rocket science, well, it is for some folks it seems

Well that is the way EVOL is run. Its a communistic corp. Just because ISK was in the pilots wallets didnt mean it was theirs personally.
But I have to agree with the OP that BOB are broke. So bring it on...or are you going to wait till after we have taken all your stations?
