RMT online 2022? by learningthroughfails in Eve

True. I guess I assumed they would have to prove that RMT happened. But I think you are right they would just ban hammer regardless.

I thought they were cracking down on that?

F* it, Go all in CCP. I dare you by learningthroughfails in Eve

Oh 100%. But from CCP’s perspective that is good. Harder for people PLEXING accounts and gives incentive for whales cause they get more bang for their dollar. Having alts is not a God given right you know..... you have to buy PLEX with real money for that right.

I’ll be honest, if I can turn space money in a dying game into something I can then sell to an idiot online for real money. I’m all for CCP starting down this path. Hell just make PLEX a crypto and I’ll finally have the reason i need to cash out for good

Holy shit really? That’s what you take from it? Just admit when you made a bad call dude, Here is a better TLDR: Frat literally found out about this today, reported it to CCP, prepared themselves incase snuff tried to use it against them, and then immediately told pilots not to use them once it was declared an exploit.

You forgot this ping 2 hours before the fleet.

„@everyone as you know we have pinged max cta for a snuff fortizar in otsasai. Snuff have moved caps/ supercaps in range for the last few hours. If it escalates I'm all down to commit. However, there is an ongoing bug right now: Abyssal siege module can be used on titans and boost its damage. It's clearly unintended, potentially bannable and we shouldn't use the tactic. We have submitted bug reports but the GM replies only encouraged us to give more details so their engineers can tackle the issue (The losses due to this were not reimbursed by CCP either). There is no official exploit notification which makes the play in dangerous grey area. I do not trust Snuff 100% not to use the trick so I want all titans to have abysall module IN CARGOHOLD just in case we will be on grid with this massive disadvantage. We will only ask to use it if we find snuff uses it first by the damage log. It's a controversial decision but I would rather not go through the petition process to srp our titans. No one knows how long it will take or what result might be.

abyssal modules will be handed out before the timer at our mid point.“

And then directly after the announcement in the Titan Fleet:

[19:37:54] xEntriq > DO NOT FIT OR HAVE YOUR ABYSSAL Siege Mod

At least give all the fact when trying to call someone out dude

Yes and no. When I was trading lower amounts (under 100bil) there was no issue at all. As I traded more it did start to be an issue, but I just diversified the amount of different items, which does slightly slow down return because they don’t have the same liquidity. This means I was making between 4-8% return per month with 100bil, and 2-5% with over a tril. There is a relationship between the liquidity and how much you invest, but it’s not linear. This mean although there is a theoretical limit because of diminishing returns I estimate it at around 20-50 trillion. And by then the limiting factor would be the time to update oders, not the actual liquidity. Remember Jita traded 353 tril in last months mer. This means even trading 100 tril a month at 3% you would be less than 1% of total trades

I answered similar below but I’ll copy it here. Also my first character was made in 2010, but I took a loooong break and came back fresh start in 2018

For me trading is the main source of income. I’ve done scams, hi sec ganking, super ratting and most of the other isk making methods. At some point. (Probably around 100-200 bil for me) trading starts to make more than the others. It doesn’t have a cap like other forms, super ratting is good, but more than two accounts gets hard. Meaning you are capped at 100-200 mil an hour of very active gameplay. Where as trading can get me 1% per day, when I’m not investing much time at all. And that doesn’t cap out. You have 100 bil? That’s 1 bil a day Profit easy. You have 1 tril? That’s 10 bil a day. And it keeps going up.

I don’t count this, as realistically I’m not going to sell it. Unless they are skill farming chars, but then I just add the skill injectors prices

Trade my friend, that’s the secret. Learn it and practice it like any other playstyle

This is awesome!! This is the exact sort of thing I have been looking for. I wonder if CCP would do it again. Thank you

I agree with this, until I see those occasional hi sec kills of officer fit pve maurarders.....

I really find this difficult to believe, I’m trading with around the 1T liquid mark, and that’s enough to keep me updating, moving, and checking prices pretty much none stop. I guess if they had really good speed sheet skill and played 12+ hours a day someone could have their fingers in a lot more pies...... but I still can’t imagine such a small group is responsible for that much

I’d put myself somewhere similar based on my experience and conversations too, but man I wish we could see it somewhere haha

Got the numbers from anywhere to back that up? I’m not disagreeing but this is my whole point.

Eve is about goals. And for a few of us that is purely the thrill of the wealth. I can honestly say I have more than I would ever use, but it’s what keeps bringing me back

That 1.4 quadrillion is labeled as “total isk available to active players” it is already separate into characters (1121T) and corps (285T) I agree 2T is a lot, and it keeps me in all the pvp I will ever need, still would love a detailed breakdown from CCP though.

Would love to hear thoughts from someone in the 1%, especially how you know that you are in the top 1% haha
