I've only seen a handful of threads asking for buffs to barges, or changes to reduce ganking...
The other 42,523,526 threads are people complaining about highsec "carebares" and how they want to ruin eve.
The really stupid suggestions about highsec are usually from trolls trying to keep some sort of "war against carebears" alive. |

You've still created an unassailable base of industrial production that affects the entire universe around it, but which is protected from any kind of influence in the other direction. This fundamentally breaks the very core of the game: the industry and the economy that drives it.
You're asking for godmode. If you don't understand why that is bad in a multiplayer game, there is no helping you.
So let me get this straight, highsec miners who do nothing but mine all day and make on average 20 million an hour by selling their minerals/ore to other players, are worse than players who run missions all day, bringing brand new isk into the game (which affects the economy much, much more) through bounties and mission rewards?
IMO, people who mission run all day should be the real targets... but that would mean ganking something other than a defenseless ship wouldn't it? ![Roll](https://forums-archive.eveonline.com/Images/Emoticons/ccp_roll.png)
eve ganking = the path of least resistance |

highsec mission runners? I'd say the percentage is fairly low if they do. |

Thank you.
I'd rather hear that then all of these holier than though speeches about how players need to come together to squash the common enemy who threatens to ruin eve forever and blah blah yadda yadda.
Gankers gonna gank, who cares what your excuse is to help you sleep better at night, just do it. |

meh, it's all just propaganda 101, demonizing the enemy/competition.
I'm pretty sure some of the head honchos in the major alliances have read up on psychological warfare tactics as well. No doubt that would come in handy when dealing with so many players.
Eventually, the enemy will just quit logging in, because they're not having fun anymore. That's the whole point. |

Good point. If this was just a "PVP game", we wouln't have PVE missions at all.
Unless CCP plans on completely removing PvE in the future. |

Everything and anything can be considered PvP. Even buying flowers for your girl from the local market, the local market stole the business of the regional florist.
People even PvP over attention of the opposite sex, happens all the time.
It's a cut-throat world out there, and eve does a pretty good job at mimicking it. |
