I'm pretty sure that the logibros are the ones that roll around laughing while they farm people out for WP while those same people think that they are farming other people for ISK, WP, and SP. Little do you seem to realize, it's the logibro that is controlling the spawns, the ammo, the healing, and even the tacnet.
There isn't an event where there isn't a logibro making massive profit.

when event is not on i'm dropping uplinks repairing etc.. when an event is on i'm doing exactly the same earning zero bonus sp,isk,weapons,suits.
meanwhile all the killers have to do is use a different weapon or suit and they are rewarded. their role stays the same, killing and they are rewarded for it while the logis role stays the same but as all the rewards are based on killing they are not rewarded for it.
also this whole notion its logis dropping all the uplinks and hives and repairs is a load of rubbish. most uplinks are dropped by scouts these days and most hives dropped by assaults and commando's. logi's are struggling to keep their place on the battlefield.
Considering that, by using a 'Dren' Logistic suit with only II in Minmatar Logistic (and there's a story behind this, but that's for another time), I can make well over 4k WP off a losing team, I'm going to go out of my way and just say that you deal with really ****** logibros. On an average, if I go full logibro (which is rare, considering my pledge to being a near-constant Commando), and given the team ISN'T complete ****, I'll get 3k WP, just from healing, resupplying, and reviving with just advanced gear. It's not unusual for me to go 0-2 or even 0-4 and top a board in Domination.
While everyone is out dying, I'm just feeding the machine of war. No use for me to actually get directly involved in firefights if I'm going to be support based and I think that's what is wrong. People forgot how to be strong support instead of offense. I've always said that the logibro is the key to the frontline, even if he isn't on the frontline.
While, yes, doing the "good Samaritan" duty during events will not get you what the people killing are getting, it doesn't mean you have to be hurt over it (which is what I think actually was a stem in the anti-BPO movement, though, again, another story for another time). Just do your job and harden the **** up. Someone needs to kill and someone needs to give that killer ammo.

ADAM-OF-EVE wrote:so what you are saying is i should never be rewarded during any event because i have the potential to earn more wp when an event is not happening. that pretty much sums up what you just said
WP is the key to SP. The current event, going on right now, is fueled by what? WP. Connect the two together and you may come to a realization.

ADAM-OF-EVE wrote:you have completely ignored the whole point of this thread.
i have seen killers top the leaderboards as much as any logi. yet in an event like the commando event they get suits and weapons and isk aswel as bonus sp just for doing their normal job
so what, this event gives bonus sp for wp. it does that for everyone. everyone is rewarded the same for doing what they always do.
in item reward events all killers are rewarded with more while the logis stay at the same place earning nothing extra.
what is the point of an event that rewards the killers but leaves the support players with nothing. where is my incentive to log on and do my job. why should i have to change my play style to kill to be rewarded for playing when the killers never have to change play style.
this is the point.
You give yourself a reason. That's the bottomline of every fitting, every "role", every suit, every weapon, and every module. Do you know why Commandos went out and pretty much annihilated everything for those suits? Because they are Commandos, it is their suit. Unlike the logistics, the Commandos need higher suits in order to maximize their place (whatever it may be, as we all don't do the exact same thing). For my 'Dren' Logistic, I can put any level of equipment on it and be "there". 'Dren' Logistic is a Minmatar Logistic, so naturally I have it built around the Repair Tool first and everything else second. I'm "there" with my 'Dren'. I don't need any other Minmatar Logistic suit to do what I use it for. It's "there".
My Gallente Commando, however, needed to be able to go into gk.0 in order to maximize its life, unlike my logibro suits that are already optimized for their role. Not to even mention that I have a very specific purpose for my 'Dren' Logistic unlike my Commando that fills the void of several roles. My Commando is more expensive than any suit I have ever ran. I dare say that the only suit cheaper than my 'Dren' Logistic is my suicide scouts (and yet again there's a story about that, but some other time).
If you don't want to logibro, don't. I don't want some asshat following me around because he has to. I've been in that place before and they always end up being the most garbage logibros I ever had the displeasure of meeting. You talk to any of the old Commandos- we run Commando because we want to. If we get something out of it, cool beans, but that does not control us. Be a logibro because you want to. Being greedy makes a ****-poor reason for doing something you don't want to do.
That and Logibros make some mad money while people throw their fancy suits away.
