As it stands right now Corporations have a limit of how many alliances, corporations, and players they can set standings to. This is very disadvantageous to Anti-Pirate Corps and NRDS alliances/corporations. NBSI does not require but a few standings to keep up with friends as everyone else in game is KOS. However in an alliance that is NRDS I have come to realize how much of a hinderance it is to not be able to sync up with the alliance. Our POS must either allow non standing people to fly around it which can cause defense issues or must be set so that everyone who is not blue to the corporation is shot. Since Corporations must set standings to single players to make single players KOS/Red this limits the NRDS way of the game even more. As many people will say NRDS alliances/corps and anti-pirate corps/alliances do help new players get into the more intricate and interesting aspects of the game. Whether you are a miner trying to find the better ores, a missioner looking for more dangerous and interesting missions, a pvper trying to test out your ship for the first time, or a new griefer/pirate looking for an area of systems where new neutrals are abundant to be engaged these groups help the interest level of the game stay high until new players can finally get on their feet and enter that 0.0 alliance or elite pirating corp or even to join the NRDS groups that helped them. I feel a little help should be given to these groups that make the middle game easier and give a helping hand out.

I agree with the idea presented, for that reason and also another, what I believe to be more essential, reason. Corporations, Alliances, and Players alike should be able to set their standings to however many other entities they would like to simply BECAUSE IT SHOULD BE POSSIBLE. The most opinionated Alliances out there should be able to set their standings towards every single player/corp/alliance in Eve, be they NPC, Player, or whatever else. If Eve is to truly be the "science fiction simulator" that it's creators apparently would like it to be, then more effort needs to be spent on making systems that work realistically within the environment of the game. Limitations for no good reason other than bad design/coding/acts of god should simply not exist. This is an ideal world, of course.
If it simply isn't possible for this to happen due to ANY reason, then the Standings system is broken entirely (due to it's inability to do what it is supposed to do) and needs to be torn open, examined, and re-created.
Whether or not you win the game matters not. It's if you bought it. |

I didn't even know there was a limit. I hate limitations in general.

Supported, this will help stop the "fof?" questions in intel and cause less confusion if a neut friend drops from fleet. An alternative is a way to import and export standings lists for distribution.

I could not agree more. We have this very problem in our fight with the Deconite pirates in and around the system of Sharuveil. Thank you Ivan for the succint explanation.
For those of you committed to anti-piracy, please be in touch with Delilah Wild of the Friends of EVE. We are building an anti-pirate blog, with links to anti-pirate resources and commentary.
