My SOTHIS report - Updated every hour (or not)

I headed out there last night to see what the fuss is all about. Ceos is down, that is true, Sothis is still up and running and handing out missions.What I don't get is why people are getting so irate about the missions. WAIT - hear me out.I refreshed the mission board a few times to see what it is all about, yes, there were 4 Million Credit poop hauling missions...... 24 Tons to a system 425LY away. Why is this a Problem?In other Stations dotted around the place I have seen 800K - 1000000 Missions for Systems 100 - 120LY away.Can someone explain the Issue here to me?Had I seen a Mission to haul 2 Tons of poop to a System 10Ly away for 10 Million ok, but this actually seems ok (disregarding the fact that it is poop that needs to be hauled.......

Ask the child-minded for the difference. They follow trends. Ceos is just the most popular on the forums.
I think I´ll stop with a billion. Should be enough for a fully A-rated Beluga and a few rebuys?

I didn't see any high value Ceos missions. I admit I was only looking for the long haul missions though. Pending state for Sothis is boom.
 
You shouldn't be seeing any missions in CEOS as its been UA bombed.

Just finished picking up about 50mil in missions at Sothis, so still working.
 
yep, I ran something like 11 million worth of long haul at various times Wednesday GMT time zone, seen no long haul since 0100 (though that may be a ranking thing). The short haul to Ceos is still available, but you'll be carrying nothing on the return. Still profitable though, lots available, and take less than 5 minutes a shot (I think). The news for CEOS and Sothis says UA bombing has been noticed and authority ships will scan and punish offenders heavily.... I haven't noticed any increase in number or size of system authority ships though. Here's hoping there's the flexibility built in to ED to allow a tailored response to the trolls.... multiple Elite rated Anacondas for example. I've been interdicted and scanned exactly once in days by system authority it was today, and it was small craft.
 
I haven't been out to Robi, Ceos or Sothis for months and I've been mining and running missions this week to build up my empire rep. However tomorrow night I think I'm going to have to run out there in my T9 just to check everything is still in order. If anyone tries to force me to accept lucrative long range haulage missions whilst I'm there I'll resist for as long as I can but they can be very persuasive. It's not like I need the money but since doing things solely to irritate other players seems to be the new paradigm I guess I'm just going to have to get on board with it. I'm nothing if not flexible.

Can anyone tell me, are the docking clamps still working OK, or have they become rusted up with all the UA bomber's tears that are floating around there?

Please clarify. I do NOT see that news for Sothis, only CEOS. I cannot see any indication in Sothis that the UA bombing has been noticed or had any impact whatsoever. In fact, I am wondering if that one CMDR that dropped off 250 meta alloys there earlier may have slowed or even immunized the effect. Anyone know if this has even been tested before?
.
I have dropped off over 1200 MAs at CEOS since last Friday and am loading up more. IF there is news that Sothis is in the early stages of the UAs taking effect, please post confirmation.
 
As a complete aside; are Sothis and Cleo stations sill "under construction" without gravity?

I haven't been out since I was working for the Sirius Corp Faction trying to get their permit pre 2.0
 
I'm a little curious to know what happened to the folk trying to bomb the station... are they just really bad at it, or did the competition drive them off.
Wondering if they might be behind the Aditi lockdown - wouldn't be surprised if they got scared off when players of their level showed up and they couldn't just keep clubbing seals.

ADHD. They came, they did their little thing, got bored, moved on and waited for the fireworks.

Holy     , how many MA's do you need to repair a station.
