Honestly, this makes me want to play just to see what kind of money-kill count thing I can get.

That is insane, some people will never learn that trusting a machine is a bad idea.

It is perfectly acceptable to fear and admire a being you could not possibly understand.

if he was moving that much isk worth of shit in a shitty frigate, there's a good reason he didn't have a fleet. i assume anyway. eve players can be some giant assholes.
there's a tactical advantage to moving product in a smaller ship. hell, drug lords do it constantly. kinda hard to mask a fleet.
he didn't hide his movements well enough, though.

and there's your dilemma <.< you have to do that. >.>


there's a reason EVE is called a spreadsheet with a pretty background.

Time to level up!

*grinds for a small amount of ISK*

*buys skills*

*stops playing game for skills to take effect*

gotta love a core mechanic that's "Stop playing the game, but come back later"

not at all sinister
