I can think of about 4 or 5 other threads explaining how it's an idiotic idea, so no need to repeat it here.

There are several ways to rebalance tech that should be looked at but only dirt-eating simpletons who have never had to scan so much as a constellation, let alone a region every few weeks. And that's before the effect on logisticians who have to unanchor and reanchor hundreds of towers and mods every month or so because some knuckle-dragging chucklepov was a bit jealous but too incompetent to take any tech for himself.

........It would entice more pvp though as you'll have smaller alliances discovering a tech moon in one of there systems then either trying to hide it or getting found out and getting the boot. The drama would be epic

I don't think this is the answer to the goal you seek. There's a difference between sparking pvp conflicts and forcing alliances to upend their poses and all their equipment and move every few months. The logistics would suck and no doubt the grunts would get sick of moving their crap from station to station. Part of the reward for null is staking out a home and being secure in the knowledge you're going to hold it for the forseeable future.

I personally ran a dozen large towers BY MYSELF, including mining the damned ice, for almost a year.

It wasn't that farkin bad.

I think it 'could' work, but a month is much too short a time span for alliances, considering that they will have to spend time taking the moon and settign up infrastructure afterwards. It simple wont be profitable for most, and so (imo) worsen the stagnant situation.

Now, make it so the shuffle takes place every...6 months? Possibly even 12 months would be more likely. You have to take in to consideration that after each shuffle, the moons will have to be rescanned to find where the materials are, which takes a lot of time, not including moving infrastructre.

I see your point and concede.

How about a reshuffle at every "expansion" ?

Never trust people who don't hate POS mechanics.

Sadly those people in those threads are the idiots

And so you still could, and most likely should, in the form of a nice outpost or what have you, but having your "home" sitting on a perpetual ISK printing machine is a bit much.

*THAT* should have to be constantly chased down.

Secure in the knowledge that you are going to hold the territory for the future - sounds like there is very little risk left in null sec for the big boys. I thought null sec was all about the risk. Apparently not.

I'm being sarcastic of course. How much risk does a 9000+ member alliance actually face in this game? Very little. The supposed risk versus reward system is in fact meaningless in the game. The big boys have all decided that high sec is their future, and that stirring up trouble in high sec is the real end game of Eve. Their nice little suburbs in null sec are basically untouchable except by another monster alliance.

This game is now like playing chess with all of IBM, and the next opponent up is Microsoft. The little player can't compete. Good job there, sandbox.

Ah, the necessary Goonswarm Though Police swoops in with the usual charm and grace. The rest of us are knuckle draggers. So begins another day in the wonderful sandbox of Eve. Oh mighty Goon master, please forgive us for discussing ideas that you in your infinite wisdom do no wish us to consider.

Ahh, another proponent of all profit, no effort.

If this was true then you'd know that you can't mine two of the same resource (tech, in the example you gave) from the same moon.
