So basically, I am rich. More specifically, I have a rather... large... trust-fund.
When you kill my ship (so far, 5 Drakes, 5 Ravens, and various small ships) I go to my credit card and I buy more game cards and sell them for ISK.
I have spent a few billion so far.
So how does that make you feel? Does it make you want to kill me more? Does it make you feel sorry for me? Angry?
Honest answers please.
Oh, and for the record, it is *slightly* annoying to have to buy all the fittings again.. :p |

Personally I would feel the need to laugh at you because I could do all that without the need to put my hand in my pocket.

Pity, actually, for the void inside you that prompted you to post this in the first place.

Well, I don't have time to grind ISK, I am a law student -- frankly, I shouldn't even play as much as I do, but it is fun! |

It makes me think if you understood the value of ISK through ingame mechanics you might suck less at PVP.

Explain please? How would it matter if he understands the value of ISK? Understanding how long it takes to get 1 mil ISK wouldn't make a better PvP pilot...? Hello |

I'd say because you take less risks you lose less ships,however you also get less in kills so it could go either way.

Edited by: Makran on 03/12/2007 09:00:30 I can't say I lean one way or another. Buying and selling GTC's for in-game isk has been endorsed by CCP, so I can't really nail you to any sort of rule breaking for doing it, hehe.
I think how people make their isk is less important than how they lose/spend their isk. And as long as you're not stealing RL money from me to purchase your GTC's, go forth and spend spend spend, I say!
Good luck and fly safe.

It doesnt make me feel anything. Why should it? The universe doesn't revolve around you; youre just one popped ship amongst many.

It makes me very happy, please keep losing ships and selling GTCs for ISK, so you provide more competition in the GTC market and I can buy them cheaper.

Sell GTC. Faction Fit. Find Search Agent. Search "techzer0"... wait. Come to the system I'm in...
Start back at Sell GTC.
This should be your daily plan, I have spoken... now go sell your GTCs and I'll keep giggling because you pay for more than just your subscription  ____________________ Hi. I'm not an alt :) |

heh. Not a troll post. At least, what I am saying is true. I could buy a Titan if one were for sale. (Or I could easily offer so much that the owner would be clinically insane not to sell it to me).

Well I am a noob. But how do established characters make ISK? If I could find a way to make 50 mil ISK in an hour or two, I guess that would be worth it.
Ratting in 0.0 only makes me about 15 mil an hour.

I neither feel angry nor sorry. I think its great for you. And if i were that rich myself (when i am), i would probably do the same! If you have assets, you should use them to enhance your life rather than letting them rot in a bank. And if you truly like to play EVE so much, why not invest in it?
I say continue to do whatever you want m8, whatever makes you happy

honestly?
Doesnt really bother me, if anything im glad you are easily able to recover from your loss.
The truth is, most people only "fly what they can afford" and are fully aware of the risks! so killing someones ship, no matter how they obtained it, doesnt make me feel any more or less emotional.
The fact that you re-obain those ships so easily doesnt matter either, since most people can easily replace their ships also.

Every man has a price. Mine is $2 for 100 million isk. When it reaches that price, I buy it.
It's not like getting banned will mean much at that point anyway.
I strongly doubt I am the first person to have decided that a game that is supposed to be deliciously hard is really only any good if the vast majority find it hard.
When people no longer give a stuff about losses, there's no point playing Eve with them. --
Awwwww Diddums! Did I wardec your highsec alt recently or something? |
