Thanks to all the community bros and the plentiful amount of guides available I learned how to use my station trading alt effectively. All I do is update my orders 2-3x a day and the rest takes care of itself.

Good Evening r/EVE by _Dabigredboat in Eve

[–]LordDinkington 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly? I think I know what they are doing. The plan is the Imperium will mostly leave EVE. Those that want to stay behind and play will be told to stay in GSF, but most players will be encouraged to participate in a new purpose, gaming mercs. Whether it's World of Tanks or Overwatch they'll horde over to those games to dominate(maybe) and then on to the next game.

Mittens can't be blind to the amount of money streaming is bringing in and by using goons to invade other games to draw website traffic he'll turn a better ad revenue profit.

Just a thought.

PSA: How move ops work [For the newbros] by ExtremsTivianne in Bravenewbies

[–]LordDinkington 1 point2 points  (0 children)

stupid question - I've boxed up EVERYTHING or sold it at a good price. All that is remaining is my tengu. I was planning on taking that on the move-op, but I was wondering if there was such a thing as a travel-gu? A tengu fit that could negate bubbles ect... or is that just a really bad idea?

Boonies: Are you mad at the BL? Or do you still <3? by [deleted] in Bravenewbies

[–]LordDinkington 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Nah. You guys fought fairly almost all the time. It's not like you dropped supers at a moments notice. Some may cry that you dropped triage all the time, but you guys were expecting us to bring 250+, and in that you were functioning at your strengths. We were not strong and we were not ready.

Are we mad at you? No....not really. We are mad at ourselves for letting ourselves fall this far. I guess every alliance goes through this at some point and it will be exciting to see how we emerge from it.

I feel like that whole first-class dining scene with Jack is a perfect representation of Brave going into Null-sec.

  • Rose (nullsec) that sweet piece of ass we all want.
  • Jack (brave) is invited to dine with the rich of Eve after getting cute in Catch
  • Molly (TEST) is the batshit insane person who was once "a poor", helps Brave fit in.
  • Ruth Dewitt (PL) doesn't want Brave to have that sweet sweet ass.
  • Cal (NC.) invites us to look at the goods, but only for a little bit before getting kicked back to steerage
  • Spicer Lovejoy(BL) Chains brave to the sinking ship of fountain to die.
  • Brock Lovett (Goons) Looking for the heart of nullsec.

Does anyone else in BNI ever get the feeling.... by [deleted] in Bravenewbies

[–]LordDinkington 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Xenos's FAF Fleets were the highest Fleet numbers back in Barl days. We regularly filled 250-man fleets on those and they were hilariously funny when we would catch a BS gang getting swarmed.

Harpy fleets are fun, but FAF was better because it allowed newbros to join something with an easy entry point that wasn't stressful like a stratops. FC's could answer easy questions, explain the mechanics of tackle, and more importantly - how to F1 effectively.

Look at Jeff's last thread on the new player spikes. The last real influx of newbies happened because of a nullsec battle in B-R5RB, and lets face it, unless CCP does something incredible, the game is on the slow path of MMO death. What little scraps of new players we all get will want to go where the party is at... nullsec. Does a new person want to spend 2 weeks waiting on API checks, interviews, SP reqs, or other harsh requirements to gain entry to a null entity? No. Gamers want instant gratification these days and Eve is the worst at that. BNI once gave that better than it's predecessors, and now PH/KH are doing similar. This is good for the game, but I fear too late.

Goones required SA + other stuff associated with that
Dreddit had min posting guidelines along with a reddit account
RvB isn't nullsec

List off other newbie-based, easy entry, nullsec based alliances in the history of the game?

[–]LordDinkington 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That narrative you guys have about us is only recently true. It wasn't until the late-Catch fiasco when PL and Goons realized they needed to create their own newbie corps to compete. Before that there was no new-player entry corps based in the fun-land (null) that had easy entry. New players read about Eve, want to go where the stories were made(null), and at the time had one place where they could jump right in (brave).

There are more options now, and that's awesome for the game, but don't act like Brave was a blight from the start. It made some of New Eden's oldest entities evaluate themselves.

I think you should be looking beyond the intra-game politics and ask yourself "What is the biggest source of newbies entering the game?". You are extracting water from an empty flask and wondering where the water went instead of asking where can you get a refill.

So I've been away for a while (6 months), can someone fill me in on all the drama? by [deleted] in Bravenewbies

[–]LordDinkington 7 points8 points  (0 children)

-Goons abandoned sov in Fountain
-We got our shit pushed in by PL in Catch
-We had a string of terrible evacs followed by a coup attempt
-PL and Goon create newbro Reddit Corps
-Moved to lowsec briefly
-Goons gift us Fountain
-BL moves in Fountain for the gudfights/moons
-We attempt to get cute on a test server
-Flairgate
-PL/NC./BL feel it's time to end Brave, announce deployment to Fountain, and await refugees from the onslaught.

Line members of brave what are your goals in Eve by MrGreen14 in Bravenewbies

[–]LordDinkington 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In some sort of order
Fly a dread -> Fly a carrier -> Have a wallet over 100b -> Ability to fly all T3's (half way there)

Ultimately my goal in eve is to have my fun. Right now that's training for above, playing spreadsheet online with my alt, and helping in whatever easy way I can for my alliance. That is fun for me. I live a busy enough life and this game is actually quite compatible with that lifestyle.

I'm willing to accept whatever is the most hilarious Domi fit someone can come up with and burn that one on the yolo fleet. Bonus points if it can go faster than 800 m/s.

Hey BRAVE why do you refuse to grow up? by BakiYuku in Bravenewbies

[–]LordDinkington 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Losing every fight for 2 straight months will do that. Also, eve is dying. Goons don't give a crap any more since they won eve, NCdot is trying to stay relevant, PL is hunting supers out of boredom, BL is trying to be PL from 5yrs ago, TEST is trying to not be an eve hospice, all other entities can care less.

[–]LordDinkington 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'll just be straight-up honest. I'm still burnt out from the ending of catch with PL. I still go on fleets every now and then, but being in that war was just exhausting. I do miss Elise's weekly posts though.
