Um, we’re in a small PvP alliance that occasionally rats. I make most of my money selling the loot harvested from the wrecks of my vanquished opponents. Although I do a fair trade in haulers on the side.

Nothing in EVE is easy, but what you get out of it is proportional to what you put in.

I don’t play EVE, but I’ve read quite a bit about it these last few weeks since BoB was disbanded. It seems that doing anything of consequence requires a lot of effort and politicking, so I’m not too attracted to actually play this game for the moment.

How do RPS readers play EVE? Small ratting corporations, big PvP alliances, something else?

I play EVE and it’s all Tom Francis’ fault.

Haargoth didn’t neglect to pay the alliance bill, he used his role as executor of the holding corp to kick all corporations out of the alliance and then disbanded it.

That was after liberating a bunch of ISK and a baker’s dozen of dreadnaughts from the hangars, of course.

The Mittani has a nice column up on Ten Ton Hammer about how wars in EVE are lost, it covers this incident and the current 3-week ongoing camp of PR- that has incapacitated the KenZoku capital fleet.

Haargoth Agamar did it…right?

Right, he elected not to pay the alliance bill, thus disbanding the alliance.

I wonder how many have gotten into EVE thanks to RPS.

There was a thread on EVE-O a couple years back that went along the lines of “I play EVE and it’s all Jim Rossignols fault”
