not that of some alliance leader scooping billions in moon goo?

The major problem with moon mining is that it is completely static. If you have a tech moon then you have free isk in abundance.

All they would have to do is to make them switch moon goo around a bit now and then. That super duper tech moon suddenly runs dry and starts spouting the least valuable moon goo of all and just as suddenly that little miniature alliance in the back end of nowhere suddenly has a moon that is pure gold... and then after exploiting that moon for a while it runs out as well... that really is all the "nerf" you need.

Also a good idea. would certainly cause massive conflicts and battles, which hey isnt that what 0.0 peoplez want? <--- yes with a z KOZZZZZ

alliances should be made to work for it! Simple as. The issue is that moons have stayed in the same place, so all the nullsec alliances no the location of pretty much every moon in eve, null, empire and low sec, and they have taken THEM ALL!!! its a fecking joke! and you know what there is nothing you can do about it. When you have 1000 supers or sub caps willing to defend the pos at all costs.

Moons should be randomised every 3 months. So that you have to actually go and work for them, spend time building and moving poses, going to actually find them! and also give the little guy a chance to hit the jackpot now and again. Even just for a few months! its totally totally wrong how unbalanced and unfair moongold works at the moment..

and if i get a comment, that you expect ppl to up poses and move them, damn right i do! you think making billions a month for doing sweet FA is right? work for your damn money...There will be less throw away ships and battles also. Perhaps alliances will think tactically instead of blobby and know that hey dont worry we lose 10 supers we have 100 in the hanger to insta replace.

Consequences! Risk vs Reward aint that what eves about? doesnt seem the case for the large nullsec alliances now does it!

I wonder: Why do people think moonmining would give the normal nullsec player ANYTHING?

Unless you are an Alliance CEO that skims of his fellow mates (and steals from the alliance at that) you have no gain whatsoever from Moons. Most Alliances I know put their moonincome into "Ship replacement Programs"to defend into subsiding Capital ships to defend, paying for sov to hold an defend some more.

I would doubt that from 10*7B/month Moons a rich alliance may own only 1% is going into someones pockets to get rich. Unless ofc your alliance CEO is an ass which may as well be the case for alot of allies I don't see the audits ;) But the normal Nullsec player will enver see a single ISK of that unless he gets a ship replaced he LOST during defense

What an innocent bunch you people are.

You know, if I was an investor that was really focussed on making money out of a game like EVE, I wouldn't change the moons because it is one of the primary mechanisms designed into the game that funnels isk into the Zero RMT Corps that supply RMT websites. Furthermore, I would own and operate those RMT Corps and websites through third party ownership and farm the crap out of it. Then I would charge players in the game monthly isk "rentals" to participate as a defender of the isk printing Zero RMT operations. So those players not only pay a monthly subscription fee for Eve, but they are also being farmed for additional isk.

Now that would truly be the greatest scam of New Eden's history.

But , of course, this could never happen, could it?

and that would be because????

put moon goo in 0.5 and 0.6 systems that would sort out the issue lol

risk free pvp?? i know we shall just lose 200 ships, dont worry theres plenty more... gtfo... you basically saying shoot and lose as much as you want with no consequences?

Except that the RMT Corp is manned by chinese who work for fish tacos and bankrolled by the RMT websites for which this is a business and not your SOV chestbeating rights. Sorry, you lose. (If this isn't so Goon, then why haven't you wiped out the Russian element yet? Or is Novator and company too good for your Leet skills to deals with. Or maybe, just maybe, the Goons are in on it too? Nooo, couldn't be.)
