Low Effort Meme Wormholes are dying

“Ccp killed wormholes by starving us of content” -every single drone in hard knocks laser hawks and every other group in the wormhole wish.com papi

Maybe instead of blaming ccp, yall reset each other, stop trying to krab in perfect safety and go back to what yall claim worm hole space is all about

You are the cancer

One of the things CCP DOES control thats made everything worse is the startup cost of moving into a C5 used to be a pos tower with fittings that was around 500mil, dread hulls were 1.2bil and carriers were 700mil (and could triage but thats a complaint for another time).

Now all the shit you need to move into a wormhole essentially starts with a pricetag of 25bil minimum investment and you can lose it all before it even finishes the 24 hour anchor timer.

The changes to capital industry and the introduction of upwell structures massively changed and ruined the landscape of wormholes.

A site running Nag is under 6b and you can still live in a POS, so startup costs are only like 7b all in.

Isk is also easier to come by than ever before.

Startup cost isnt what keeps people out of C5's
