Hello all,
I hope you are all as excited I am for the next meta: Citadels. http://community.eveonline.com/news/dev-blogs/building-your-citadel-one-block-at-a-time/
As you know, Citadels will be somewhat of a hybrid between player made stations, and what we currently call POS'. One of the great things about Citadels is that people will be able to trade items at zero percent tax (provided that the owner chooses so).
Recently, someone calculated that there was 350 billion in profits made in Jita daily. I think his or her numbers were found to be off, but 350 billion is just the margin. Imagine how much isk is actually changing hands! Maybe trillions a day...
Jita currently charges a tax for every isk spent. Even if this tax were as low as 1%, same would amount to 3.5 billion in taxes per day (just on the margin GÇô not even the total sales). With citadels, we could possibly forego this tax.
Do you think that, with enough publicity, people could be persuaded to change the current market from Jita 4-4 to possibly an XL-Citadel located somewhere else in the system?
If so, I propose getting together and building an XL Citadel in Jita (and maybe later one in Amarr). I have quite a few billion saved up, which I would be willing to invest, but obviously I cannot do it alone.
Let me know what you think. If there is interest, there would need to be a way to remunerate those that contribute. Maybe a lottery based on the amount of isk that you donate? If you win the lottery you get your name name as part of the citadel name for a certain amount of time?
Obviously all the isk would go to a third party, such as Chribba. We could even agree to make Chribba the owner of the citadels to make sure that there is no abuse and that taxes arenGÇÖt raised.
Note: this assumes that an XL Citadel would be very hard to destroy in High Security, given that no capital ships are available. Although any items within the citadel would be transferred to another station if ever it does get destroyed.
Edit: This could also be used so that repairs are free. |

i have a feeling that like POSes, citadels will not be allowed in Jita.
Also paints a target, someones gonna war dec it and roll over it with a dread fleet unless it has a very dedicated defense initiative.
Finally, isk sinks are good, i suspect that SCC taxes will apply to any market, regardless of where it is, They still apply to null stations.

Certainly.
Although it looks as though CCP wants to make citadels have lower taxes: (quoting from the initial structure blog from after Fanfest last year)
"We are also considering giving those a tax advantage next to NPC stations (either by increasing NPC taxes or having tax reductions on the player-made variations)."

No.
Current stations can not be destroyed - there is no risk in having trillions of assets sitting in a station.
The second you go to move a trade hub out of a station into a citadel - everyone's assets are at risk. A citadel can be destroyed.
The only way this will happen is if CCP makes it so existing stations can be destroyed after citadel's have been released - then yes - most definitely. What you want will happen - and i can foresee Chribba being the one to lead and make this happen.
If Chribba owned the Citadel - everyone would be at ease that they are not going to be screwed over. God help anyone that decides to try and take on Chribba - as people would make this their main trade hub and you can guarantee an army will stand up to defend it considering how much in assets would be sitting in the thing.
Speaking of which - Chribba??? Have you had any thoughts on this? :) |

Making a tiny outpost in .5 heavily trafficked system for gankers to chill in is a plausible idea. Market hub with no taxes is fairly stupid idea.
"People will stand up to defend their assets" is rather adorable. Every single null war is won whenever the other side decides to stop logging in. And that is in null, where people are accustomed to defending their own space. Why should a random high-sec pubbie do anything whenever their beloved taxless citadel burns?
If anything it would be an interesting social experiment, on whether there are more people who like to press F1 in Oneiros or in Oracle.

I aqm pretty sure they said that items within citadels would not be destroyed - merely placed in a close NPC station... |

IIRC the fee applies only if the item is teleported from one system to another. Within the same system no fee.
On the original post - removing the SCC sales tax would be an unmitigated disaster for the game. It's already below optimal in terms of functioning as an ISK sink.
CCP seem quite aware of this (they did increase taxes and broker fees several expansions ago).

I hate to burst your bubble but citadels will most likely have the same system deployment restrictions as POSes: namely they cannot be built in a number of special systems. IE trade hubs such as Jita, Amarr, et al.

A medium citadel (POS replacement) is pretty cheap to install and maintain. |

Currently you're not allowed to use high sec capitals for combat. Hopefully you'll need something a bit tougher than Attack BCs and VNIs, you definitely will for XL Citadels if their testing is any indication of their final power (https://twitter.com/CCP_Fozzie/status/690205264843313152).

I suspect there are lots of high sec capitals still. As liz pointed out you aren't allowed to use them in pvp and you aren't allowed to sell them. Mine is getting very dusty sitting in station.

I wonder if dropping one next door to jita would be profitable enough for traders to move one system over. |

As far as devs confirmed, only L and XL citadels will support market modules |

I would invest for a .5% tax, would give a good ROI.
Could build it half-way between dodixie and jita.
Will need to pay ongoing security to protect investment.

Which will never happen because if it did the game would end up with a coalition 10x more powerful than CFC ever was as being with the most powerful coalition or alliance would be the only way to assure security of ones assets.
I can think of nothing more destructive to the veteran player base than to make everything destructible. |

My broker's fee is already 0.38% in Jita 4-4, and it can get a fair bit lower.

Mine is 0.23% in Dodixie. I believe 0.19% is the best you can get.

Then set it to 0.05%. If it became even half as big as Dodixie it would be insanely profitable.
That said, I highly doubt this will work. Either people wont trust it, will be too stuck in their ways, or CCP will implement something to prevent it. Maybe only a limited number of market slots in the whole citadel? Something along those lines. |

The problem with this is that the alliance that builds it is the alliance that must defend it. And defend it alone because of highsec mechanics. Have fun with that during Burn Jita.

You farm freighters macro style only to make 1 man wealthy. You must have low self esteem to call another 'your saviour'. Your existence in Eve is full of hypocrisy and denial. Then you go beyond the pale, expecting others to accept your religion and pay a tithe.
Eve is an excellent sandbox for anthropologists to see first hand how cults and brainwashing takes place. When I was younger I could not comprehend how freemen gave up their free choice to people like Jim Jones. After meeting people like you Ima, and reading your misguided posts I understand now.
I genuinely feel sorry for anyone seeking identity in James315, I prey they wake up, sooner than latter.
I will always stand on my feet and fight bullies, always.
