I'm here to explain what happened, and to let CCP know that its working as intended. This is not a favorable exploit by any means. Here is what you were observing: We had nearly 2 full squads in that match with about 8 of us participating in the test. We spawned to the MCC with many many nanohives and proceeded to place them around the interior of the ship. We then spent the entire match practicing our close quarters shooting at one another while running in circles to distribute the 10 wp for resupply around. You detected us doing something strange because, every time we came close to losing our nanohives, we would throw ourselves out of the MCC to die and thus gain more nanohives. Summary of results: Would have been better off just playing. The WP payout is minimal at best, and as indicated, I barely got 1,500 WP. That said, if 16 people did this with 4 nanohives each, with a Defend order... this could be more efficient... HOWEVER, I still believe that a casual merc could pull of the same points by simply playing the game properly. Cheers, Contra
The fact that this even crosses anyone's mind is sad. There are over 1000 players following this dude. |

Thor, first thing, we do not have 1000 members, its closer to 250.
Second thing, and most important, why do you have to constantly shart on me and PRO, I would have thought you to be a better person and simply move on. Apparently this is beyond your capability so here it is for the record. Goat flock yourself dude!
Also the high horse you and your boys seems to be riding on will soon have only 3 legs, so good luck with that. Just ask yruphuct. |

Cheers, Contra Ah, I believe that was originally thought of in closed beta (or at least implied in a WP farming thread) and originally named the "betamax circlejerk" |

Dangit cbj I grew I get to keep my isk any ways guys to put it simply if a 6 man squad all with proto nano hive did this they could get 3-4 ob in a hole 20min match. It not worth the trouble because the pay off is low. |

I bash you because the majority of your members simply don't know better. Maybe they've realized they aren't any good at the game and playing weird games on the side during battle (while screwing the rest of the team) is a way to have fun.
We aren't on a high horse, but we are actually trying to be good at the game. I know, weird right! We go into the battle and the ONLY game we are playing is the one CCP intended when they designed it.
You should have actually retired as CEO of PRO.
The thing is people want to win battles and have fun. They don't care that there might be some weird glitch that falling out of the MCC leads to WP if you put 4 nanohives in a circle and tap the R2 button 8 times.
I constantly **** on you in the hopes it keeps a new guy from joining you. I keep it up so that the remaining members leave and go find some place that can actually help them become a better player.
We heard about your little plan. A billion isk is a lot of money. The last I heard you were telling your corp that you were broke. Where's that money going to come from? |

If it was really a FW match, maybe they were flipping the district. If hired to take the district, easier to join game on the red side and suicide them out.

Farming WP on nanohives? This is just sad. I think you coulda get the same amount of SP by either playing the game regular or just AFK farm the MCC. But hey if you really want to get alot of WP just go drop proto uplinks in the MCC and every 1 keeps commiting suicide and spawns on them. That are constant +25WP for every spawn. |

So the great plan was to get WP from dropping hives all over and restocking every few seconds then committing suicide when they run out of hives?
Dont know what is worst the fact that this has seemingly only just occurred to them or the fact that none of them thought of just doing it in the redline and running to a supply depot instead of sacrificing a suit. |
