I have yet to figure out why anyone cares what the carebears are doing in empire. Seriously, WTF does it have to do with you?

You dont realize the work and time it took to suicide, do you? Unless you do, you shouldnt open your mouth.
Here is what I don't realize, why can't you do it anymore?
Concord is faster than they used to be... so you'll need a few more ships in on the gank to pull it off. Concord, AFAIK, doesn't just instapop all aggressors when they show up, so it's not like you can't still plan and execute a gank, it just takes more overall firepower being brought in.
Whats the big deal? Adapt.

Uhh dude, you do realize that most 0.0 players have alts in Empire to make money right? You want to elaborate on why that is?
I mean if it was that profitable in 0.0 why would you even bother having an alt to JEWBEAR in empire. Seems pretty stupid wouldn't you agree? I mean if you can make that much money way over what you could in empire, well it makes no sense in grinding missions in empire, now does it?
Do you remember in math class in highschool you asked "where will I ever use this"... Now would have been a good time.
Do the math, that is, there are only so many 0.0 systems. And of those, only X percent are highly profitable, of those X, there are x+y*2 players trying to use that space, which decreases each of their overall incomes.
Thats why you see 0.0 alliance players with alts in empire. Missions are EASY MONEY, not THE BEST MONEY. They are also completely reliable, where as nothing in 0.0 is.

They are in reality THE BEST MONEY, as with the exception of that one time two years ago when you had a -1.0 trusec system with 25 belts completely to yourself you are better off doing missions in high sec.
That is highly subjective.
I've had good days and bad in both 0.0 and in lvl4 missions. I CAN make more money in 0.0, if conditions are right. (which isn't that hard) But I can reliably make money with lvl4s, which, again, 0.0 is not reliable ______________________________________________ Goon FC(08/12/06):"its a trap" "that thing is fully operational" |

look at that, you inadvertently took my side of the argument...good boy...
I wasn't on the other side to begin with, I'm just trying to understand, and offer what insight I have. Also, someday I want to understand why the hell so many people care what is going on in empire.
It just don't make any sense to care what the alts and carebears are doing in empire.
Do I get a cookie or something?

Yea I know. If you read to whom I was responding to..you would get the gist of my questions? The Person I was responding to made misinformed statements about 0.0/low sec,and I wanted him to answer them.
Math might be your strong point but unfortunately comprehension is not. (Plus Highschool was over 25 years ago.)
So let me get it straight, you responded to some bull with some more bull and now you're insulting me when I call you on it?
I'm pretty sure my comprehension is right on the mark.
Take a walk kiddo, come back when you can argue civilly. ______________________________________________ Goon FC(08/12/06):"its a trap" "that thing is fully operational" |

No cookie for you.
But essentially 0.0/low sec players get bent out of shape because the empire guys want added protection for the same reward. And then some of the empire groups get all bent out of shape because the 0.0 guys seem to be getting all the good stuff and they want it too with out the additional cost of risk or effort. And it boils down to everyone is playing the same game and one group feels the other is getting an advantage which is not shared.
Which then you get the ****ing contest between the two groups and then after the countless flame wars, (which has been happening before there was insurance, WTZ etc etc) Everyone forgets what the initial argument was about.
And then players that were not apart of the argument at the beginning get caught up in the argument not knowing how, why or when it started.
So in essence they care because....v0v
Damn, I really wanted a cookie.
I remember when insurance didn't exist, I remember when you could gank someone and then dodge concord. I remember when missions didn't pay worth crap. I remember when mining scrodite was the only realistic way a noob could make isk.
I can't help but wonder if most of the people whining don't remember those days?
At the end of the day, you have to pick your own playstyle. You can't pick for anyone else, and they can't pick for you.
If you think the empire mission runners have it good, go join them. You'll soon find that most of the claims of income are inflated substantially. (short of using multiple alts)
