The irony is in what you said, not what he said. It has nothing to do with shutting people up. Everything to do with learning to accept other people's play styles. People play the game differently. Hi sec mission running IS NEEDED for many of the reasons that have already been mentioned.

Contrary to what has been said by some, there is no significant inflation problem in Eve. The market isn't collapsing any time soon (quite the contrary). The Risk vs Reward argument is a joke of an excuse overused by gatecampers and gankers of all people.

Sure, you can nerf isk generation from missions to whatever you think is fair. But in the end you'll just have to make it come out from somewhere else that is just as safe. You are trying to close an isk faucet that is necessary and will end up being opened elsewhere in the end. And I can assure you that it won't be in the middle of the pirates' den.

This isn't an FPS where you can place some highly valued item in the middle of a fortress being guarded by the opposing team and you can die and respawn as much as you like without consequences until you finally get that loot. In Eve having no way to safely recover from losses WILL LEAD players out of the game. And yes, it makes the game very realistic, since poor people usually end up dying poor and struggling to make it. But how many people do you think will end up paying a subscription fee to log in to a game where they can't do jack because every time they try and make it lo sec or 0.0 they end up worse than they did before logging in?

If you want to fix the T1 market, then there is already a simple solution for that. There is absolutely NO NEED to nerf hi sec missions to the extent that tou ask.

Replace T1 loot with meta 1-4.

Any change beyond that is messing with the game on a great scale, to the point that everything else will need to be re-thought.
