hi guys cat here
i was thinking earlier about my pirate rehabilitation service and how it has never really flourished lol but then i had an idea!
once you are a pirate it is a very hard time to get back to being an honourable citizen because you have to shoot lots of red crosses and it is often very dangerous and time consuming to say the least lol
but wait what if the pirates could use a plex licence extension to reset their security status! its not like this would affect the game because if you have lots of time you shoot enough computer pirates and then that would make enough isks to buy a plex card anyway so it just cuts out the middle man
i think that this idea would be good because it would give pirates a easier way to be honourable again and also it would provide ccp with more revenue so they can continue with other stuff
its win all round

Being a pirate is like being in prison... most people go right back.
I got Surf up to 0.01 sec status and 3 months later I'm at -5 again .
Curse you, Helicity!!!

Much as I want to stab myself in the face for agreeing with you, I've always thought being able to bribe concord for sec status made sense if the cost was balanced (high), with increases following the same curve as sec increases gained in the usual manner. If that's done with plex, no worries. eohpoker.com

Hi Cat Ary here, I completely agree with your idea of being able to pay real money for increased or decreaed sec status. I also like the idea of charging us to post on these forums (besides the 15 bucks a month we already pay) I was wondering since I've thrown my support behind your sec status fee idea if you would please support my idea of being able to pay for asteroids. For example I'm right now mining a 129,000m3 veldspar asteroid. It would be alot better for me and the game if I could just pay say 129.00 US dollars for that big virtual rock and the veldspar would just automatically be in my hold. Thanks for your support Cat. P.S you are one hot kitty Arakash

Perfect idea.. now i can highsec gank allday long, and never have to leave jita to rat sec status back! if am lucky, the hauler i kill might also have plex in, so saves me even buying the plex in the first place!!

hmm well mayb it shouldnt be that easy
perhaps one plex per 1 sec status so that the meanest pirates will have to play like 10 plex licence lol and the upside to that is that ccp get even more lovely money \o/

Exactly what eve needs...
I suggest making it a bit different. Make it just pure isk to concord for your sec status. every 0.1 below 0 is a progressive 100m. So an increase from -0.1 to 0.0 would be 100m, increasing from -0.2 to 0.0 is 300m (100+200).
You should also be able to just increase to some minus value, not getting to a full 0.0, but lets say from -1.0 to -0.9 would be the 1b isk you'd have to pay (for the 10th grade of SS upgrade).

I wish I could go back in time and vote for cat for CSM now. The thought of cat typing in her fake troll speak about stuff like this to the srs business csm dorks would be priceless. We could have video of a meeting with ccp where whenever cat talks he says 'hi guys cat here' omg the lulz that would generate. - It's not "Play through a pre-set story, become stronger, do endgame". Gameplay is open ended, and you make your own story. Unless you're too afraid of 'pvp grief' to do anything relevant |

Hmm... Cat trolling aside, it would be awesome if you could buy sec status with ISK. NOT PLEX, mind you, just plain good ol' ISk.

Pirates kill stuff to get ISK, so their sec status drops. Pirates use ISK to increase sec status.
Rinse and repeat.
What's the drawback of piracy again?

Well done you can detect sarcasm, might want to work on the rage though.
Cat is a respected and well known player, but WhoTF are you? You telling Cat to "GTFO" isn't going to go down as well as you think.
In fact I think it is you who should GTFO I don't want your stuff just GTFO TAAAANKS! |

Hi Cat, Mashie here.
I think this PLEX I received was broken. A month ago I was +4 , now I'm -6.5 . How could this happen?

While I am not Cat I think I can explain.
You see Mashie, the Plex you received was in fact part of a top secret experiment to suddenly and irrevocably drive carebears into lowsec when they can no longer operate in safer areas of space. These Plex were not meant for release into the wild, and I do apologize for you erroneously receiving one. If you would kindly return it to me, I am sure you will find your security status will recover on it's own, eventually.
Thank you. --Vel

A way to get positive is a good idea however I propose that it is done quite differently.
If you are below -2.0 standing it should be possible to convo a CONCORD agent and receive an implant called a "Rehabilitation Collar". Whenever this item is plugged in any PvP kills you get on people with GCC or very low sec status yields an increase in your own sec status.
Once your sec status has improved to -2.0 the implant becomes inactive and is destroyed.
The implant would be free to pirates who convo the agent, however it would be non transferable to other players and each player can only get one rehab collar every six months. This restriction prevents abuse by not allowing people to share collars essentially giving players more sec status to play with then otherwise.
Other effects include a more significant loss of standing then usual if the player attacks a neutral unprovoked in either high or low sec. Also the pirate would have some sort of flag to mark him out as a pirate under rehabilitation. Of course he would still be more then permitted to defend himself if attacked.
Just a few musings there. Any input would be welcome.

I'm not completely against this because I'm a firm believer in second chances, though I think there should be something like a probation period to this and a very serious penalty if that probation is violated. Part of the way the game works is that if you behave badly enough, it can nearly permanently impact your ability to enter high sec which protects law abiding citizens from having to deal with murderous scum and criminal elements. IOW, don't make your bed if you don't want to lie in it. that being said, I would have to see a more in depth proposal to make up my mind one way or another.
I would like to point out a bit of hypocrisy though as many of the posters here agreeing with this idea have posted against the ability to use reassign SP since in their words, if you make a mistake, you have to live with it. Whats good for the goose...
