Has mining become obsolete since there is sooo much isk floating around?
Is it hurting EVE that people are too rich?
Should we scrap insurance payouts outside of empire?
Do we need better isk sinks?
What new and interesting isk sinks are on the horizon?
Should something every1 wants be sold only by NPC's? (Boosters)
I can remember when EVE was like the wild west, when it hurt bad to lose a ship, but that made fighting even more exciting. The game used to be wide open, now it seems limited by restraints developed to hurt small gang warfare and solo PVP. Cap ships and POS's are tedious after the initial novelty wears off...
Suggestions? Comments?
i dont know i alwys have to little isk.
I just recenlty bought my first carrer, true that before i devoted all my time to pvp or corp/allaince duties i was in.

Yes. I think so.
Back in the days, there was a "cutoff" between people who were good at making money and those who weren't. The cutoff wasn't that big though--a billion was loads.
Today, a billion is pocket change for anyone who is good at making money unless they intentionally use it as they earn it, or PvP all the time rather than rat/mission/mine.
But the people who suck at making money haven't gotten any better, and so they feel alienated by the gap.
A corpmate of mine decided a few days ago he would go get himself in a dreadnought. A few days of ratting and he's already bought his dreadnought and fittings  .
imho you exagerate abit with your dread bit= few days of ncping.
Maybe if you npc 8h/day it would be 1 week or 10 days ( lets assume oyu earn 200 milions perday).But i assume most poeple cant play more then 15 -20 hours a week, so its more like 1 month.
Me personally npcing in very good 0.0 i earned for a carrer in around 1 month maybe a bit more, playing i guess around 10 hours per week in average.Also had to pvp a bit during that time.
Doesnt seem so short to me.

Not really I knew a guy who used to pull in 4-5 hundred million in a day, it'd be a good day I suppose but he certainly had some lucky charm or some such for getting good loot.
I still think you miss one of the point of my post.Maybe he earned 400 milions because he was very lucky npcing with loot all day.ALL DAY.
Come on who can play a freaking whole day often??
Also you cant npc all time in 0.0 you got to defend it.

I still got a biased feeling that poeple who talk about "to much isk" are poeple who dont pvp, just make isk all time, buy shiny ships that they put to hangar so they can look at them or something.
In that case ofc i can believe you got to much isk, but you will alwys have and thats natural...
Now all my friends from 0.0 without t2 bpo i know are or constantly broke or just ok.They never have to much isk.Pvp is the drain and its an ultra drain in 0.0 .
If yuo dont do it sure you will have tons of isk, but eve is designed with pvp as main feature.
Im here from start of the game and im constantly broke, just recently decided to go solo more or less so i have more time for making isk and fianlly earned for my first carrer....Never had time while in alliances, pvp constantly took the isk i earned...
