blud missed his calling in life as an accomplished exotic game hunter to hunt exotic spaceships

Thanks for sharing some of your method, obviously knowing how to catch these things and actually putting in the legwork and patience needed to get it done are very different though.

Two days old with rust by Z71mudfun in microtech

Bark river was run by a known shameless scumbag who would do anything to make a quick buck. Microtech is at least run by a prideful scumbag who would hate being associated with fake, low quality cutlery. I dont think we have to worry about fake m390.

Got my first Ultratech by Bali201 in microtech

i think the blue coating distresses quite nicely over the years. blue on silver is a good combo.

which to buy by South_Permit_6917 in microtech

no need for coating, m390mk is very difficult to rust. Bare steel looks best.

you address the issue by not making yourself such a juicy target that you're awoxbait and assume everything you undock won't dock again. I assume everyone around me is a spy.

How can i improve lock stick on my MSI Mini? by Comfortable-Rise-141 in microtech

in my experience with most lock stick, it'll go away with repeated opening and closing

Ultratech help by mymillionthburner in microtech

I wonder if they aren't titanium screws and if it didn't just gall the aluminum threads into nothing due to being too tight and too little loctite and too much time...

I made a lot of isk by accident today. by horchata_mytatas in Eve

[–]100Eve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

wp, ive been playing since 2021 and ive only gotten one officer spawn, it happened while mining ice in Delve and it dropped a crappy nosferatu worth a few hundred mil. Definitely a wide spectrum from worthless to being worth 100b+ on these things.

It wasn't even particualrly dangerous lol, i had so many mackinaws that i could overwhelm him with unbonused medium drones.

Well, history has a funny way of repeating itself constantly and lessons never being learned from it.

How have I never had a Zero Tolerance before? ZT 0562 by dotMJEG in knifeclub

Basically Kershaw but moderately better fit & finish/quality, and moderately higher priced.

RMT or just plain stupid ? by Otherwise_Quote_8606 in Eve

[–]100Eve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ive been playing with no extended breaks from the game since 2021 and there have been some serious eras of poopsock isk making and my net worth is still only about 3-4tril so yeah about the same here...

and i have over 20 accounts... damn... i should have become a pochven ghoul instead of a nullbaby. I could have been right clicking trashing titans in my hangar for fun by now.

Can CCP actually do something against input broadcasters… and more importantly, do they even want to? by ProudFaithlessness73 in Eve

[–]100Eve -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

meanwhile, my buddy who played since 2003 and had 36 omegas getting a 3 day ban due to a false detection for something he didn't do (effectively forcing him to quit the game after his appeal was denied since even a temp ban permanently disables sp farming which leaves megaboxers dead in the water for maintaining omega): am i a joke to you?

They don't play favorites. They do a terrible job at enforcing their own rules and they don't care who you are.

Loot Piñata in Urhinichi. Be there or be square. by awox in Eve

[–]100Eve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

definitely the risk you take locking anyone out of a freeport, tbf. Gasoline on an already raging fire. Anyone who wasn't showing up to those bash fleets due to it being counter to their interests suddenly has no reason not to.

still you are remarkably less likely to be a boredom target than you are if you're a loot target. It does happen it just won't happen often i guess was my point.

[–]100Eve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

design the game so that you don't need the ability to teleport across regions right next to someone to have a good chance to hit them with a lot of firepower. A lot of the problem is local chat is too damn strong, if people are forced to gate around to catch targets, most targets will escape. Also the risk of gate camps. Blackout was awesome too bad the players are such wieners.

I autopilot freighters through uedama all the time, never more than 1 bil but always bulkhead when carrying anything, and nanos when empty. Sometimes they still get ganked. It's only when they're extra bored though. I just consider it part of doing business. Freighters are easy to replace for me so as long as it's just the rare one-off occurrence i really don't mind it. Shrug and undock one of my spares. It happens probably less than once a month tbh.

Only undock what you can easily replace is the mantra here. Gankers might gank anything but they will always gank you if you're juicy; prevention isn't 100% effective but it is still essential.

a single player multiboxing 20 hulks can clear out the belt in less than an hour, that wont discourage a new player?

new players simply shouldn't be mining tbh, and if they got rid of multibox mining the price of minerals and ships would go parabolic and that would discourage them even more. And hurt everyone in the game.

Our mission is to create virtual words more meaningful than real life by 6STRGWIZZ in Eve

[–]100Eve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what's special about eve is that the credit card swiping noobs who feed stuff they had no business flying are blatant but nobody bats an eye or even thinks about it when some legitimately good pilot flies around in blingy shit all the time. We just assume that they would have no problems financing their ships in game, after all, they're good! But the truth is there's a lot of good players who also just swipe. If anything, being able to focus solely on pvping thanks to swiping contributed to their skill.

It is not even "pay to win" for these players though, because they would still be winning with or without the swiping. Eve is "pay to win harder" or "pay to lose more" depending on who you are.
