There are plenty of players that min/max Dust as seriously as Eve.

We are waiting for the noobs to squad up and get with the program.

Yeah...BPOs ruined the economy...

Not the Billions of isk that was farmed from PC just by sitting on districts which pretty much killed PC in the process since there was almost no reason to even fight for a district anymore. And not pretty much anyone who's not new can run proto 24/7 and never run out of isk. But yeah, BPOs did that.

Oh and let's not forget that the period when BPOs and pack went off the market and it seemed like CCP stopped making any sort of money off of dust and the game pretty much died(I would stop giving Sony $50,000 per update if nobody was paying for my game too) and with the reintroduction of BPOs the game is actually getting real honest to goodness patches(it's almost like they are willing to invest money into the game again...WHAT A TWIST!?)

But hey, let's get rid of BPOs and the sale of them again. It would really be cool to see the game completely die instead of trying to make a comeback.

Damn, Darth Vader. There's not enough ice on Hoth to cool that burn.

Yup that about summarised the nature of the job....oh and the unadulterated hatred of hundreds of people for a reason that is largely beyond their control.....doing a fair amount of work for 0 pay.\

Your point?

You deserve that much.

The economy of eve and dust are two entirely seperate monsters.

Eve is an eeconomy based on item generation and destruction. The holy trinity of this is creation, possession, and destruction.

Remove or disportionate any of those and you destroy the eve economy.

This further evolves the game play into the realm of being highly efficent with what little equipment you may have. Some players can indeed lose 10-20-30 ships in a sitting but they generally do it for greater gains to buy 60 ships so to say.

Dust in spirit shares this but there is one massive major factor not accounted for.

Location.

Dust 514 magically teleports all of its items where capsuleeer have to manually ship them.

Without the means of location in dust 514 right now our economic model is somewhat too superior if we where to be placed in to the new eden soup as such.

This facilitates our ability to die as much as 30 times in a single 15 minute span where an eve player would struggle to keep up in a similar manner unless he's an idiot undocking from his home station in shuttles.

Same! I'd like to imagine the guy that dies feels like an idiot for being killed.
