TL; DR: Nullsec is boring.
I can only speak for myself, but in my case, it's pure desinterest in 0.0 at the current state.
- Any significant PvP involves timers, massive EHP and thus blobs and powerblocks. Force projection is ****-easy. Whilst CCP brought in numerous mechanics to nerf bigger=better, there still is no single disadvantage to bring bigger numbers.
- I've not been interested to fly around in blobs anymore for years and except for catching some ratters (yay - have a cookie for killing that ratting carrier), small gangs are pointless.
- I'm poor by current standards, but I have enough isk so no amount of isk/h is going to encourage me to join a powerblock (and I'd never consider renters even a remote option).
- Dominion mechanics made nullsec bleed personalities and people to 'hate' (in an ingame sense) - they're all faceless pets of someone I don't care about. Last time I took a short stint to nullsec was killing the old NC because I despised them - not because I enjoyed it. I was out as soon as it was was clear the DRF would win and the NC was gone for good.
- Bubbles and camps are easily avoided, but I'm just tired of using the same dated D-scan for years.
Not a big issue - there are other areas to play in, but I don't give a rats arse about current 0.0.

Oh - and on the stealing moongoo idea - I proposed that a lot during recent years as that is what I want to do: Current established nullsec alliances are established empires for the most part - kinda like states.
I don't want to hold space and be a farmer, I want to raid and **** the current farmers - unfortunatley, there's nothing except popping a ratter every now and then - everything else is protected by EHP and timers, so the blob has plenty of time to ove in.
Enable me to raid Lindisfarne and I'll be all around again. IT's funny how a game made by probable descendants of Vikings is all supportive of a blob of peasants rather than raiders.

Thinking back - It was a thread made by you where I saw the moon goo stealing idea. Props. I like the farm analogy - The problem is that CCP sometimes think take it too literally, and think that to make a field more fertile you have to spread it with ****.
IMHO - that's the entire problem - a tech moon can be controled by an AFK-Empire - be it PL or CFC and there's nothing you can do about it except forming a bigger/better blob and become the same way they are - i.e. putting up your own goo-farming pos and be able to defend that if you either have a couple of thousand members to get people for fleets or relatively huge numbers of skill-demanding fleet concepts that have an edge on current CFC concepts.
They'll all be noticed days in advance, spread it around jabber and log in if the need arises.
Vulnerable nullsec would raise the demand in actually populated nullsec to defend against the constant threat from raiders and would be an incentive for alliances to just hold as much space as they're currently able to control actively instead of relying on an AFK empire only waking up on a jabber ping.

It's a shame that this isn't on page 1.
Thanks - maybe I'll be making another thread on the isue next weekend one more time, but I'm growing tired of calling out the obvious for years without ever hearing a counter-argument and CCP being obviously deaf in that regard.
