Simple enough: Change the standing system to allow only five +10 slots, and five +5 slots.

I don't even know where to begin on this. Do you really think this will have any effect in practice? It'll just make people use out-of-game tools to compensate for an inadequate in-game interface even more than they already do.
This proposal is bad, and you should feel bad.

Out of game tools to get those nice blue icons back in their local window?
I'm intrigued...
OP idea is certainly not a solution, I'm thinking more about some kind of fee to resolve the issue.
Say 1mill isk per member and week if you want to set an entity blue.

I have never understood what is the drive behind forcing alliances from forming diplomatic relationships between each other. Eve is a game where building diplomacy also matters greatly. If an alliance builds its empire based on political relations alone that itself is quite an accomplishment. It doesn't always have to be by the gun.

I don't know of any out-of-game tools to mod your overview. I assume someone's coded one, but that sort of thing is strongly banned by the EULA. No, I'm thinking simpler - put your standings list into a webpage and have it open off to the side.

If you want to prevent people from having lots of allies, you need to create a game mechanic that discourages them from being friendly with each other.
This proposal certainly won't do it. As has been said already, people will create lists elsewhere and just manually check; or they'll use red to mean blue.
There is no game mechanic tied to standings and so simply not allowing somebody to turn somebody else blue will not have much impact.

Or just grow some balls and voluntarily not have as many blues as you currently have? Nobody is forcing you to keep adding blues.

How so? Are you onboard? Get out of the corp/alliance. Are they your enemies? More to shoot! Are they somewhere else where you don't even go? Why do they bother you?
In any case, you cannot and should not force people not to be friends. If the game doesn't allow it, they'll simply use other methods. Maybe there will be more "friendly fire", but surely not more hostility.
Intel channels will have to do more out-of-game checks, that's all. |

How about we just make a skill called diplomatic regulation which adds one additional high standings slot for every level (except level III), and then a skill called advanced diplomatic regulation that adds one more per level. Maybe an implant too? --- signature removed - please email us to find out why (include a link to the image URL) - Jacques([email protected]) |

And apparently it's not working well enough for the original poster.
I actually use that mechanic quite a bit; more than you it seems.

Why? What are you trying to solve? Someone mentioned NAP's - well...aren't those your allies? So really what you want to be able to do is shoot at people your alliance has decided are off limits for shooting at.
If you don't like it, leave the alliance. Then you/they can shoot them/you all day long.
Or, and this is just me blue skying here, fly a little further from home and shoot some people that aren't blue. This mecahnic isn't broken - you're just not happy with the target selection. --Vel
