Devian 666 Sectoid Technologies	Posted - 2007.10.04 00:12:00 - [1] Well if they don't carry out those activities then the price of amarr invention will increase significantly. Is that what you would prefer? Farming isk is one thing but what are they using it for? So long as they don't ebay it for cash then that's fine. I agree I don't have the features to be a holoreel star. Most people have missed the point that this is Mobsters Online and that carebears are at the bottom of the foodchain.

Untill then it's just one guy with 6 accounts. Don't get me wrong, I really hate people who do this as this is the only reason I never go to these sites. All these things should be moved to exploration, IMHO. A single day of exploration never comes close to 6.7Bil, nevermind in 0.5. Oh I am not saying he is selling isk for IRL money.. he could be saving up for a dozen Titans for all I know. I don't mean to imply that he would be selling isk. Just using the term "farming" in the sense that he is repeatedly collecting immense amounts of valuable loot in a very repetitive way... It's not they only invention plex that's being farmed.

Devian 666 Sectoid Technologies	Posted - 2007.10.04 00:20:00 - [3] I think the people starting to comment in this thread should try tanking the cosmos plexes before they comment. Note that they are faction fitted BS and the BS being used is the ideal ship to tank the plex. If it's impossible to tank the plex then these items which are critical to invention will go up in price as supply drops. I agree I don't have the features to be a holoreel star.

All these things should be moved to exploration, IMHO. A single day of exploration never comes close to 6.7Bil, nevermind in 0.5. It depends if you listen to his extreme exaggeration, actually wait no, his total and utter lies. He has simply scanned the cargo of 6 abaddons, added it all together and now states that is loot from a single day as fact. He simply assumes this and posts it here to make his thread look more extreme. You're welcome to come try for yourself, if you beat us to the cans or not, i'm sure you'll still see whatever spawns and from that you can calculate the value to be made here. Well he says its over a week or so. So 6.7 billion / 7 = 957 mil a day. 957 million a day / 6 characters = 159 million per character per day. 159 million per day / 23 hours (assuming he really is farming it 23/7) = 6.9 mil isk per hour per character per day. I don't know about you, but when I make money I make a lot more than 6 million per hour. I'd say its more of a problem with multiple accounts than anything. It may be lame that he/they don't have to work as hard, but its within game mechanics so I applaud him for his ability to do it for so long. And I'm jealous i didn't think of it first. Once again the math proves the whiners to be whiners. To be fair to the plex farmers mining in high sec would need to be nerfed (ie., remove exhumers from high sec) to make isk earning fair and balanced.

Devian 666 Sectoid Technologies	Posted - 2007.10.04 02:30:00 - [5] On a side note if you were making 7b per week, and assuming you're already sorted out with the gtcs you need, what would you spend the isk on in game? Myself I'd spend the isk on mercenaries to achieve my in-game goals. Any one else have a wishlist to spend the isk on? I agree I don't have the features to be a holoreel star.

Devian 666 Sectoid Technologies	Posted - 2007.10.04 23:53:00 - [6] I think there's one critical thing that people are missing here. You need to get isk from somewhere and basically all isk revenue generators are farmable. Missions, ratting, mining, plexes, exploration and trade. Out of any of the above categories the largest earner is trade. If you nerf everyone's ability to earn isk then there is no economy. I think the real issue is that people don't like the plexes as they are competitive. If you aren't up to the competition then do something else. People have also complained about the hacking plexes being a primary source of invention gear. If you want a solution to this then you need to suggest a total solution not nerf this or nerf that. This is because if you take away the plexes all your t2 gear is going to get a lot more expensive. I don't know that adding these plexes to exploration would really be enough. That and they're sufficiently tough you need decent sp, ships, modules to spend a couple of hours in there hacking. Note that the exploration probes have been heavily nerfed so I doubt exploration would be a viable source for these components under the current mechanics. I don't want to pay even more for t2 ships just because some people can't handle the competition, and the remainder are jumping on the bandwagon just to put in their 2 cents without considering the consequences. I agree I don't have the features to be a holoreel star. Most people have missed the point that this is Mobsters Online and that carebears are at the bottom of the foodchain.
