It also fixes the passive item generation issue that people are so ardent to shrug off and downplay. I won't name names from various correspondences, however, yes I am ******* with your sandcastles. Deal with it.

If it wasn't clear, you are getting 'bonus' warpoints for staying in consecutive matches (only takes 2 matches, read that topic via the link). Even if you leave a match and start another one you'll still be able to earn warpoints normally by any of the battle tactics you employ currently. Warpoints are the best metric of activity in Dust. Boosting warpoints are already a punishable activity.
What I am simply doing here is turning warpoints into a 'currency' that fuels your modules thereby eliminating passive accrual of items such as warbarge components, ISK and weapons. Leaving these items as fully passive hurts the Dust economy because it reasonably prevents the devs from opening them up for trade as players will farm multiple accounts. This becomes an arguably unfair advantage if you are not willing to pony up and buy systems to run Dust.
Yes, while CCP allows for multiboxing of EVE, running multiple instances of Eve Online of multiple systems or a single system you are limited by your ability to manage those accounts in physically pushing buttons (input broadcasting and input multiplexing are prohibited in Eve) and being mindful of other threats (i.e. someone shooting at you in a mining belt, or physically moving items through space which has its risks at gates). This last point does not exist in Dust 514 in terms of 'multiboxing.' It means that in order to be relevant in Dust industry you only have to pay, there is little in-game skill.
Yes, I am a farmer of accounts in Dust. I will continue to farm until the greater issue of passive generation is addressed. I am just suggesting a possible solution to an activity that I do not believe if greatly beneficial to the long term health of the game. Let's discuss.

Brah, did you even read what put down there? I agree they're different. Alt farming is a no risk venture once you have the equipment and macro scripts in place. Large scale multibox mining at least takes a little active awareness and management.

This is something we really need to look at again now that console sales in China are a thing...even at PC bangs.

Ghosts Chance wrote:the major factors that have held that back have been twofold, people generally have attachment to their characters so fear a ban, and the money generated isnt nearly enough to be worth it outside of REALLY large scale setups.
the chinese RMT market bypasses all of this, as the PC bangs dont give a crap about characters and will cycle through them daily. Banning a PS3 mac address does help, but PC bang gold farmers are likely to have experience working around this and being able to get a new machine, or just figuring out how to emulate an iso of Dust on a PS3 emulator.

Sylwester, I am aware of the Eve Serenity cluster, however there is no connection between Eve China's Cluster and the US/JPN Dust 514 the Chinese console owners can access with a US/JPN PSN. A proxy VPN isn't always needed.
A localized Chinese Dust client would work better and provide a mor lag free experience, however the HK PSN store is woefully limited in it's selection so Chinese console owners (individuals/pc bang owners) will likely spoof a US/JPN psn and search for free to play games to populate their game library.

In more likely scenario, Sony is more interested in Eve Valkyrie over a PS4 Dust port. It's more likely for Sony to want to push consoles with the Morpheus peripheral to various PC Bangs. Greater profit margins.

I did not realize this. The Chinese firewall does not block PSN features.
