At least we're settled on the fact that the mega-blocks are the problem.

Unfortunately there's probably no real way around that as things stand.

Says the guy that just insults people when they don't agree with him?

ok, whatever floats your boat I guess. lols

you seem to think that nerfing jump bridges would kill off large nullsec blocs, allow small alliances to settle in nullsec and magically fix the game

fun fact: even if force projection was nerfed, the last thing we'd allow to happen is some small alliance setting up near our space - we'd purge them immediately considering that they'd collapse under the threat of an invasion by one of our enemies

It would make it harder to move around your BLOBS thus the only people who would be ok with fighting on the other side of New Eden at the drop of a hat would be capital ship owners.

Nullsec is about empires, worthless scum who complain about megablocks are nutjobs who believe they can cut it in 0.0 but are unable to make any friends and so they're left ranting that it's all ccp's fault that they're not king of a region

this is much the same as cheetos-stained libertarians are sure they will be lords once big government gets out of the way

I want more people TO have an interest in SOV so we have more people to hunt.

I dunno, irrefutable facts like how Pandemic Legion doesn't have a single jump bridge (or sov) yet controls as much of the tech supply as Goonswarm doesn't seem to get any response from you and your "jump bridges are OP only carebears disagree" screed, maybe insulting is the way to go.

Perhaps. I don't really think of PL as Blobbers. They are the anti Blobbers if anything. They are the one Anti-SOV Alliance that is still able to project power. I think we need more of them - not less.

Removing/Nerfing JB's wouldn't discourage a PL so what was your argument again?

When not all your neighbours are blue for 6 regions around you, it makes it riskier to use the other methods of moving around New Eden Null Sec.

good point! however, I'll counter that with the fact the removal of jump bridges and jump drives would cause alliances, regardless of size, to concentrate themselves into much smaller areas of space, effectively negating the point of nerfing them in the first place, because THE BIG BAD BLOB is still close by.

That would be a good thing as it would make more space available for new entities to try and take SOV.

what you think is irrelevant because we all know it has no connection to reality

That would be a good thing as it would make more space available for new entities to try and take SOV. Like I said, I have no interest in SOV. I just want more people to try and take it.

That's all. Having people want to be in NULL is a good thing. Jump Bridges need to go for more than a few reasons.

It's funny to see how people who have never been in nullsec for longer than the time it took to get popped in EC- or HED talk about "nullbears" and how jump bridges destroy anything at all.

So we went from "nerf power projection because it encourages blobbing" to "we need more alliances that can cross the entire universe in 30 minutes so they can hotdrop people with hundreds of supercaps"

wow

Judging how much somebody had been in nullsec based upon the single character they happen to be posting with has always been folly.
