You can say that again. The soapbox manufacturing facility has been working overtime this last month.

I got it from my experience doing it… You know, new player here. 
Then you’re remembering it incorrectly because I just completed all 5 Career Agents on an alt character yesterday…
I also checked Uniwiki to verify the total amount of ISK made from all 5 Career Agents as well as the ISK gained from the Air Career Program for completing those agents…
My logs are a mess, and I don’t care really.
But I can say cash flow for capsuleer 9 of 10 you can mine the entire Kernite for 8mil give or take.
I’m not sure the message ALL career agents got across, so I’m going to repeat it.
Yeah, there’s also a couple of other mining missions for Veldspar in the Career Agents as well…
The reason I didn’t include any ISK values for loot is because the amount varies greatly depending on location… Anyway, new players definitely have it a lot more easier nowadays…
Back when I first started playing Eve, the original ‘Basic Training’ tutorial was known as ‘Crash Course’… You were sent in a Corvette Rookie ship to an Asteroid Belt to mine some Ore and kill a single Pirate NPC… After that you were sent to 1 of 60 different Agents (incorrectly called Tutorial Agents) who offered a 2 part mission series called ‘The Endless Battle’..
The 1st part of that mission series was again go kill a single Pirate NPC and return some ‘Stolen Documents’ back to the agent… The 2nd part was a simple Courier mission to deliver an ‘Encryption Code Book’ to another station…
Total pay was about 100k ISK and if you were lucky, maybe have a couple of T1 modules dropped as loot by the 2 previous NPC’s..
And that was it… No other training, no extra ISK, ships, modules, skillbooks, skillpoints or standings, just a good luck message as you ventured out into New Eden…

Below a certain ISK level, the kill is more important then the cost. I mean…I would not waste my 500m ISK Loki on a Venture. That would be silly…and unsustainable too. But I’d have no problem using my 15m ISK ganking Moa on a Venture. In fact I have it parked for use later on for just that purpose. Nice range of 16km…and who’s ever gonna think they’d get ganked by a Moa ( even though it has enough alpha for a one shot kill ).
I lose maybe 10m ISK. Big deal. I get a kill. I’ll move up to bigger stuff once I’ve got the hang of multiboxing a fleet.

Which clearly means “I’m a grievously overly obsessive Ganker in real life!”
In my experience, the only people who really seem to talk about being isk positive are people who dont pvp. Its always some hs carebear who hardly undocks who wants to sit and babble on about isk/hr and profitable ganks.
Just 10ish days ago, @Aiko_Danuja and myself had a miner who doesnt pvp pull us into a convo, to teach us how to gank more efficiently… because, according to him, our ganks aren’t profitable enough.. And he insisted we are doing it all wrong, because again, isk/hr.
And no matter how many times you explain to them that isk is completely irrelevant to the equation, they simply cannot comprehend it as their miner botbrain is only programmed to think in isk/hr.

Exactly. I can’t do all this ratting things… or repeated activities… too boring and not profitable… fun/hour is negative.
Looks like someone spent 3M (which is even for me is nothing) and got a lot of fun and a separate thread on the forum. Just 3M isk per corpse, but each of them remember the date. Sounds like a real violence as it give a mental trauma to the victim just for 3M. Lovely and helps to educate those who forgot brain/implants on station.

I wonder if CCP will add those mission back along with the SoCT missions in the new region.

I doubt it…
That original ‘Basic Training’ tutorial known as ‘Crash Course’ was updated and changed into Aura NPE (New Player Experience) during the Incarna expansion…
Aura NPE basically forced those Agents into early retirement due to single handedly ending ‘The Endless Battle’ mission…

Nah, looks like Nasty Shrew is an angel as you cause more male tears on this forum. What are male characters are doing in the alliance? Are they forced to clean queens shoes twice a day or just hunt a pray (and clean shoes if got nothing)?
BTW: seen also CODE shooting capsules, why not if some dead man on an autopilot is flying around… worth to help him to reach the station.

Sorry, I charge people for entertainment value. The last time I was entertaining here, I got paid in ISK. I also charge 2 million ISK for answers, 20 million ISK for correct answers. Dumb looks are free.

Official response from the Capsule Traffic Authority:
Thank you for your public review of our services 
Nasty Girls Alliance operates a Public Safety Awareness Program across the pipe. Our mission is simple: identify capsuleers who trust autopilot too much, provide immediate kinetic correction, and allow the lesson to be delivered directly to their home station.
We do not do this for ISK.
If we wanted to make ISK, there are easier ways than feeding Thrashers to CONCORD in exchange for empty capsules and forum poetry.
This is not industry. This is not trade. This is not loot farming.
This is public education.
Every autopiloting capsule is a small moving classroom. Some classrooms are empty. Some contain expensive implants. All of them are eligible for inspection.
If your capsule was empty, congratulations: your lesson was cheap. If you collected the wreck afterwards, congratulations again: you completed the recycling module.
We support recycling.
However, please remember:
Autopilot is not a safety system. A capsule is not proper travel clothing. The pipe is not a private hallway. And Nasty Girls are not required to be financially sensible.
We are not nice. We are organized. This is worse.
Fly safer, or keep helping us spread awareness.

Saint Seiya reference? lol, wild.
AI interpretation of KMs for sure, no player would refer to a capsule like that.
And game over. Referring to the gate that can really be seem as a pipe, is undeniable some AI interpretation.
And the wormhole used to travel is pretty much private, I only see myself in there.
The idea was cool, it lacked some “proofreading” or revision.

Oh, may I try…
Cats like dogs, they like to eat
Some of them are eating ■■■■
Those who likes a metal taste
Eats your ships to reduce the waste
PS: I mean New Eden waste here…
But there is a problem when cat is wet,
In those moments she is mentally dead.
She wants only one thing and this is a food
Which is breathing in POD while watching “corn”
PS: I mean that pilots on autopilot likely away from operating a capsule.
Etc… As there should be an ending… Not sure how it sounds like as not my native language, but should be funny anyway.
EDITED: missed Hulks, but Hulks usually should be used with CODE. in context
