I think no ones going to do it and you lose a source of income.

Do you want me to use crayons too?  How about develop the game???  Plus Xad is right too...

@Opti:  Single tile change, and ewar turrets are ***.  Hence why bergers was let go because the design was made obsolete.

I told you about this months ago on a ticket on Ville!!!!!

@celebro. It's not considered an exploit, no one got banned and no assets were taking away.  What happens is you grab all the mining missions of the same ore at all 4 different terminals.  You spark around each one getting them.  Them you undock your Argano go mine 2500 liquidzit and an instant 100 tokens.  You then take those tokens back alpha buy beacons and pop them on gamma.  People were literally doing hundreds of beacons at once.   They were literally not able to loot the cans from it because they disappeared too quick.  This literally went on quite a few months.

@Martha it's hard to renew an account when your doing 24 hours on a rig.  I may renew it when I get home Sunday.

Celebro try to play a bit without sparks. Give it a week. Can you do it?

Burial I like the instant teleport too, but like in life, you can't have your cake and eat it too. It's too OP for large forces that want to abuse it, I don't think STC is making the most of it tbh. edit not saying they should.

Yes you can, buy 2 cakes.

@ville.  then your argument is completely pointless, if it could be done then, how is it spark teleports fault now?  Not to mention that this is the first time I have seen it done in a year and a half.

Pointless enough to have you alarm clocking forum posts lol  My work here is done.

@merkle, I see what you did there

@Cassius - Well, Population and the spark is allowing you to control the world. Which is where the real problem comes in. Any corp that has the greatest firepower (People and EP) will be the ones that control the world. That's what is broken.

Even if the tables turn, it won't even be 'fun' pvp to try and fight, because you'll always be faced with a huge number of opponents.

The M2S alliance was able to take over all the outposts because they had unlimited resources.

STC is holding all the outposts because you have unlimited mobility and the largest force.

The 'largest force' is only important because of the unlimited mobility. STC can apply everyone anywhere, that's what is broken.

I understand you don't want to give up your advantage. All 1000 of my posts aren't going to get STC to agree with me, contray to Merkle's post, I'm not done playing-dumb yet.

The only thing that really matters, is that the devs do see the problem, what they didn't see was a solution.

If they want to make it a 15 min PVP timer, that's fine by me. But it won't solve the problem, and time will prove that out.

I can't speak for Ville, but I would hazard that he doesn't care about holding a station, he just wants good PVP. Having 4 or 5 times your number defend every SAP on is not fun PVP, for either side.

3 sparks out of 10 is all that's needed for Beta ownership currently zoom.  And why would you even USE a beta station when you can just simply be locked out.  It's not balanced for the world Zoom.

@ Martha. M2S did own every outpost in game and CIR and co did too at one point.   Even with out sparking,  which fully proves celebros point.  Logistics for an operation required a 1 hr form up and a 1 hr logistic train.  Your a little too green to remember and you never played at CIR and Chaos peak.

@Zoom. It's about tactical decisions.  Sparking would be ok if there millions of players and hundred thousand islands.  And it took literally monthes of 8 hr days to scout every island.  But it's not its the ability to scout every island for inhabitants in 8 hrs in one day.

But if you think it's working as intended can we remove interference too?

Water erosion, technically, is caused by the friction of water molecules (Just like Wind is the friction of air born particles - not the air itself). The faster the water is moving, the more friction (or in the case of deep slow moving water, its the increased pressure - like pushing down harder on sandpaper) it creates which dislodges more solid particles.

Friction is the cause, migration is the effect.

That being the case, I'm going to erode out of this thread. smile

I wasn't going to take it to that level, because it then moves out of my field of expertise then into something a little more scientific.

Martha Stuart wrote:

Erosion is not limited to just water.  Erosion can happen from ice, glaciers, snow, wind, water, gravity, and tectonic shift.  So no, erosion does not only happen from rain.

Items in bold are caused by water, or have root cause of water. 

Items in Red Do not CAUSE erosion but actually prohibit it.


Erosion is caused by the migration of sediment over time by water and wind(lols).  Things that help prohibit the migration of sediment are different techniques of stabilization, for example: Plants.  Because after 10 minutes of time, plants magically appear on freshly terraformed areas, it is clear that the freshly terraformed areas are immediately stabilized by root masses in the soil.  Further providing the fact that erosion does not exist in Nia and should not exist.  Also it should be noted that there is no Snow, or Glaciers, or WIND.  Since th fog magically appears we can conclude that high flying clouds magically drop instantly to the ground, and the Wind forced used to guide them would be in a downward pattern.  Causing further stabilization to the land masses by creating a reverse effect on the migration patterns of typical soil.  This is further proven when the fog is magically lifted suddenly.  By what would seem by the FM technique.  What is the FM technique you might ask, well it's F*cking Magic, thats what it is.

So if we are "technically" speaking Martha, I don't think you have enough of a technicial background in erosion control and techniques to even discuss that.  Although googling "Things that cause erosion."  Might make you an expert, in real world applications and in "theory" you have no Idea whats going on.

When I get this error, I typically have to reset my wireless adapter and try to reconnect, I notice during High Peak times at my hotel this happens.  When I reset my wireless adapter it typically fixes the issue.

Way to go Zoom!

There's no *** wind on Nia either.  Erosion will cause me to stop playing.  I have a *** load of time, nic and planning tied up on my islandS.  Something I don't want to have to redo like pointless *** walls.

The in game information should include their "key item bonuses".  Like masker foundations:  Std 100%, Adv 150%, and hitech 200% masking buff.  Boosters is where this is particularly needed.  But it would be nice to have a goal to work towards.

Bahaha TOG was recruited into the epiczors pvp squad lol!  Lol!  Scraping bits now Merkle aren't we?

You guys are still missing the important point here.  Erosion only happens with the migration of sediment by... Rain!  and since it never rains on Nia then there's no erosion!  Seriously though a nice undo button is a great way to cover your tracks and or a highly powerful offensive tool.
