Are (omega) player numbers up or down? Hoping mining returns to normal. I miss the old High Security before Scarcity and Triglavians. My 3 omega accounts been offline since January.

Up or down compared to when?

If compared to 2013 for example, they are down. If compared to 6 months ago, none of us here in the forum truly know.

As far as I am aware  
When they were up they were up  
And when they were down they were down  
And when they were only half way up they were neither up nor down

Numbers fell drastically and have started to rebound just slightly, but are still at the lowest point they have been in years.

The end of some of the scarcity measures already, combined with the decoupling of minerals from most shipbuilding just means the price of ore/minerals is falling and will continue to fall

Rattati is also about to nerf mining ships, so I would wait and see how that all works out personally.

As an infamous ancient Earth President once said “It depends how you define ‘did’.”

You mean number of currently paid Omega accounts?  
Overall Omega accounts, whether paid up or reverted back to Alpha for non-payment?  
Do you mean Omega accounts that have logged in over the last 30 days at least?  
etc  
etc

Said an earth president, not a president of earth. As such any president from earth would be an earth president.

That’s like if someone said an American butcher and you corrected by saying there has never been a butcher of America

I wasnt aware America had thousands of Presidents.

You learn something made up every day.

This pointless debate wouldnt have been necessary if the original poster hadnt by default made American President equate World President grammatically, but I understand the ~~manifest destiny~~ confusion.

Not American president. And there has certainly been thousands of presidents worldwide over the course of history.
