Yeah, me too. Was building a nice collection. Oh well, I shan't bother next year.

I am also wondering. Have I missed my diploma? Anyone know how to get it? Were there any this time?

How many people actually use their apartments as apartments these days? as something more than merely storage? It used to be that some people were very imaginative when decorating their apartments but now most of the accessible ones seem to be empty.

I agree completely! A yearly interest rate of 20% is impossible to find anywhere else, even in junk bonds.

Profit? So if I understand your numbers correctly you made a profit of around 29000 PED. Congratulations!

People used to complain so much about killing 10 mobs in a row and not getting any loot so MA introduced Novas & Blazars to shut them up. Actually, when they were first introduced Blazars were actually sellable and could mean the difference between a profit and a loss on a hunt. Now the markup...

wb Hurri. Hope everything is stable now.

I see you included the most important thing: Made some good friends. Hope your second year is even better!

What I don't understand is why they are wasting time changing the look of mobs rather than spending that time working on some of the many other things we actually want!

I think the expression "return" is being used wrongly here. If you put $100 in a bank account and get a 30% return, then after 1 year you will have $130 (i.e. +$30) If you put $100 in cld and get payouts of 30% during one year you have $30 (i.e. -$70) The difference is that you have bought a cld...

I find it very interesting that people who play a game have to do something else at the same time in order to have fun. If I wasn't having fun playing a game I would do something else instead.

The idea is good, but the problem would be the same as with the global ads: who would advertise? MA/FPC don't seem to be able to sell much advertising.

COM HEM works well most of the time and that's just the 2 MB connection. Lag seems to be more correlated with when someone else in the household is listening to something on internet.

When I first started playing EU I had no idea it was a cash economy. I had seen a friend playing at it looked quite interesting so I just started playing and got hooked. This was a few years ago now and,despite saying I would never deposit, I have deposited quite a few times. I see it more like...

You can fight them, Oleg: When you buy from auction, do not buy the cheapest items, buy the ones which cost 5% more.

The original idea behind sweat was to give new players a chance to play the game and make a small amount of PED before having to deposit. The problem is that because there is so much sweat in the game now the price has dropped considerably. I propose, therefore, a new type of sweat: This...

No! The safest way to approach this game is to see it as a way of having fun. If you make a profit in the short term, great, but in the long term you have to be lucky to make a profit.

One thing to add now is to get a vehicle. This makes travelling both faster and a lot more fun. If you get hold of a VTOL then you can use it to get past mobs which are too difficult for you and also to find TPs which yuo may not have got yet. The view is also great!

Prices seem to have come down quite a bit the past year. Time to buy?

There is a very easy way to make sweat worth more - make it rarer. Instead of getting an average of (say) 10 sweat per successful pull, make it an average of 5 sweat. Instead of getting sweat on average (say) every fifth attempt, make it every seventh attempt. Instead of it taking (say) 10...

Standing around in Twin Peaks with 7000 sweat, and I can't just let it go for 2.2 ped/k. The idea of sweating is to give a newcomer an introduction to the game, something to do for the first couple of hours just to get used to the controls. Now there are also a few missions for new players to...

That is very true. So, how about combining the mentorship system into the society somehow? I'm not quite sure how it would work but I expect some people would have good ideas. Here is one idea (which you can all shoot down in flames): On arriving at PA the new player would enter a building with...

I've had several periods of so-called 90% return, (I assume this means that going out with 100 ped ammo gives loot worth 90 PED and thus disregards decay which would probably turn that 90% into 75%), but they are also interspersed with a few 30%-50% runs.

Yes it is possible to make money in EU, in the same way it is possible for any American to become president of the USA. Do not play the game as a way of making money, play it for the fun of playing and you will not be disappointed.

Be very careful who you get to help on this. There is always the risk that they will not give it back. On the other hand you may have difficulty finding someone willing to put in the hours to help you without getting any renumeration. I have helped a friend to tier an Opalo as I was doing the...
