People annoyed because they could not come into jita to sell etc.<br /><br />Other hubs are available, and they were goon free.<br /><br />There was a great deal of profit to be made on meta0, especially for the first 24 hours before people figured out that they could look at killmails, set up buy orders and resell.<br />There was also profit on manufacturing. Until Sunday, there were plenty of available slots in jita, and even without PEV, and using an NPC blueprint, the markups on meta0 made it very profitable.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461700565722278823.post-85608738007071677222012-04-30T11:01:37.875+02:002012-04-30T11:01:37.875+02:00While I agree the Goons couldn't stop the trad...While I agree the Goons couldn't stop the trade in Jita, I suspect the trade volume for the last weekend will abysmal. Most items except for small things and gank fits were moving really slow, and buy orders for minerals were filling slowly too (especially for a weekend). <br /><br />In my opinion the Burn Jita event and the following Hulkageddon are just two tool to influence the mineral market, both for minerals and moon goo. And they chose the perfect time for it, with the prices already on the rise because of the changes of the most recent patch.arianteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01943421690524126587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461700565722278823.post-70332024894777562702012-04-30T08:15:37.907+02:002012-04-30T08:15:37.907+02:00@gevlon:

You are not god, you will be blown up eventually).<br /><br />What matters is the amount and the time. They destroyed A LOT of M&S ships that would be destroyed in a far longer time space. That, by definition, means there will be a much bigger demand for a while.<br /><br />I also contest the part where the <b>slackers</b> will suddenly stop being so to grab new shinies. Even the morons, who ARE morons after all, will do much better except being blown more often by pirates since they are...well...morons. Whenever there is an increased activity from one side, the other side responds too (because there is more profit obviously). Ultimately the more materials are digged, the more will be blown up effectively balancing the effect.Energybombnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461700565722278823.post-36983914743177192592012-04-30T08:10:44.083+02:002012-04-30T08:10:44.083+02:00Pretty successful op for the Goons I'd imagine...Pretty successful op for the Goons I'd imagine. They seemed to be having fun and got a lot of kills.<br /><br />I think they also played the market. I had hoped Jita would sell out of Tornados and I'd be able to sell some gank-fit ones on contract but it never did. I guess Goon players with insider knowledge have been readying Tornado stocks for some time.Stabshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08716211705647213383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461700565722278823.post-33015940795743996872012-04-30T08:09:44.971+02:002012-04-30T08:09:44.971+02:00@Energybomb: The M&S loss is irrelevant becaus...@Energybomb: The M&S loss is irrelevant because they either do PvP and then they would have lost their ships anyway, or not, and then they played "laid back lol", and now they grind harder to get back where they were.<br /><br />The Goon income did not change so their spending neither. They may not make Catalysts and Tornados but Tengus.<br /><br />So the losses will be compensated by M&S having less lolpvp and grinding more.Gevlonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07072766785893313616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461700565722278823.post-21823590385078656202012-04-30T08:04:08.050+02:002012-04-30T08:04:08.050+02:00I would argue that you are wrong to an extend.
Ye...I would argue that you are wrong to an extend.<br /><br />Yes, you are right that it did not affect the SHORT term economy, but arguably, it did affect the long term.<br /><br />For starts, the 14k (it was that much iirc) ships the goons produced needed a supply. That supply is no longer needed, so there's that.<br /><br />Also, as a direct effect of the "burn Jita" trillions, maybe 10's of trillion's, were lost. When a big amount of money is lost, even by the M&S, it will still hit inflation. <br /><br />In addition, the M&S, as you mentioned before, do the grinding. They just lost their ships and they will have to fly with something less effective = lower supply for some time.<br /><br />So yes, in the short term, stockpiles were enough but saying the economy was not affected is short sighted, at least.Energybombnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461700565722278823.post-6986270443406673462012-04-30T07:39:12.376+02:002012-04-30T07:39:12.376+02:00Hilarious killmail(s) of the day:
