p0ma	Posted - 2004.07.19 07:24:00 - [1] It is getting out of hand. The solution is for something,.... ANYTHING.... to be introduced to NPC market. Expensive BPO's perhaps of..err....hell something I don't know. Takes money out of EVE players hands and out back into NPC. The End ---------------------------------------- "Cry Exploit and let slip the Dogs of War"

p0ma	Posted - 2004.07.19 08:12:00 - [3] Originally by: Judicator Fancy new toys :D There is no cost of living in EVE if you are good at not getting blown up constantly. Thus more ISK enter the system over time than exits. This is even more true when the market is primarily run by players. It is not bad as such. I think the prices for minerals are starting to soar a bit and thus goods will become more expensive. Ofc that just means more ISK exchange hands and not that it is out of the system. Too many players are making 75 mil+++ a night with very little effort. 150 mil +++ with decent effort. 225 mil +++ with uber-effort. If you can't see the problem with this, well... I envy you because I do :) Do you remember how ausome it was to be a corp that owned a Battleship BPO back in the day? Or to have 2 Bil isk in corp wallet. Well now you really gottah have like 15B before anyone would even take you seriously :D Another concern of mine with trillions of isk floating around are the clever pyramid scheemers. With a clever enough marketing campaign single players can rack up several billion isk a night. Hey... my respect goes out to them for being so damn clever but it still leaves me feeling nervous about individuals/small corps owning like 200B in assets. :D ---------------------------------------- "Cry Exploit and let slip the Dogs of War"

p0ma	Posted - 2004.07.19 21:10:00 - [5] Originally by: FZappa there is no inflation . most players are as broke as ever , and those that make the tens of millions a day usually lose them in pvp . high prices are due to increased demand , and shortage of supply . LMFAO!!!!!!!! Nice, very nice Zara. Let's have us a screenshot of your wallet(Journal Page) I'd bet my sisters' cherry you have 3 billion isk or more at your disposal. I clearly remember you boasting of having 700 mil isk like...almost a year ago(back when it was NOT possible to make 200 mil isk a night like it is now). I consider your response extremely sarcastic or distasteful propaganda old chum. :) ---------------------------------------- "Cry Exploit and let slip the Dogs of War"

I consider your response extremely sarcastic or distasteful propaganda old chum. :) well just now you brought up the biggest isk sink in the game :D . Real life work . i exchanged making billions in virtual money for some some bread and cheese ;) working 12h+ a day really cuts into your isk income :D and no ,im not poor ;) isk makes more isk i think your estimate of how much isk people make off hunting rats is too high . i dont know whats the exact % of billionaires in eve , but not everyone is a hard core gamer that can spend over 3 hours a day playing .the people who have no life and are willing to spend their entire free time for a game deserve to be filthy rich (altho somewhat sad) I know what you mean actually. I just quit my job I've had for 4 years. It was a nice job but they could never give me any time off as it'd be too expensive to fly in a 'replacement monkey'(see Simpsons episode #417 where Homer takes a leave of absence from work and is replaced with a monkey) from their HQ in Canada. Or perhaps they were just ignorant. Either way I'm off work now for a while to mellow out and yeah I'm making uber-isk as a result. It's still fairly easy to make 100 mil isk in a matter of 2 hours hunting rats or mining arkonor with dual-accts or heck even 1 acct. And don't even start me on Crokite. Irregardless, 500 mil isk 6 months ago was worth quadruple what 500 mil isk today is worth. Best weapon in game at one point was the Heavy Modulated Beam I and it was selling for 10 mil isk and LOTS of them were dropping everyday. People would be somewhat shocked for anyone to pay 10 mil is for a weapon. Now people pay 135 mil for 1337 weapons heh. I'll never be comfortable with a 110 million isk ship kitted out with over 250 mil isk in rare modules. Or people offering 260 million isk for a puny little covrt ops frigate. The End ---------------------------------------- "Cry Exploit and let slip the Dogs of War"
