Wow.

41 pages of Null-sec blaming Hi-sec for Null's stagnation.

Talk about logical disconnect.

Null finally pooped too much in thier corner of the sandbox and it's Hi-sec carebears' fault because it smells bad and sticks to the bottom of their feet?

Null doesn't want more players in null, they want more victims in null. As long as small alliances and corps get ground into dust out in Sov-null dont' exepct a mass migration any time soon.

And it's not just a matter of CCP providing more stick and less carrot in hi-sec either.

Reduce The numbers of Null sec systems.
Increase seriously the ressources in Planetary.
Reduce the Bubble In null sec ( please) or remove them.

Incursions Only in null sec and make it worth it like in the old days .
Increase The bountys on the rats in the belts.

And All The ccp events , in null sec like ccp fleet invasion in null sec only.

And more than that Make the universe Live like In RL why No sun Collapse in EvE ? Why there is no Comet strikes a planet and forces the owner to move to find a new safe place to conquier ??

My 2 isks

I don't really have a problem with Hi-sec ganking.

Frankly it's the one thing that gives Hi-sec a little excitement.

But the "fix" to Null is to simply make it more accessable. There's simply too gate-camped bottlenecks from Low to Null and getting yourself moved from Hi to Null is usually suicidal for those with less than six months of playtime.

So like lazy monkeys that humans are they stay where they think it's "safest", despite the ridiculous drudgery that Hi-sec is, no matter how painful, dull and tedious it is.

I'd rather crawl inside a wormhole than join a mega null-alliance.



CCP needs to add more Null systems, both NPC and Sov. And vastly increase the ease with which Indy players can set up shop out there.

Nerf Local chat, kill gatecamps, and make setting up small personal POS's out in Null easier for the individual player. Null will get it's population shift.

The safest way to travel in null is to have a t3 with an interdiction nullifier subsystem fitted and the covert reconfiguration subsystem fitted.

That may be true but there are others who are so risk averse that they would not set foot in low-sec or null for any reason whatsoever. Not even if there was a savings to be had by doing so. From my own point of view, I would just pay the tax and go about my merry way.

My post wasn't addressed at you, unless that Uni guy is your alt?

It's a tax on the combined estimated market value generated by the UI. No more hoarding and stockpiling. It is also optional but if you don't pay it, CONCORD will take no action on you behalf until your back taxes are paid.

Its just an idea I was thinking about and the economy can always use more sinks.

in w-space you can collapse wormholes that have Bad People on the other side, somebody can't light a cyno on top of you and drop supercaps and you generally have to probe targets down rather than simply ping-ponging between anoms until you find something to kill

oh and you can't simply find a w-space system with NPC kills by clicking on the map

so taking away local in nullsec to "make it more like wormholes" is goddamn dumb idea

Holding alts risking nothing more than a noodship is a small risk to take when faced with forever paying taxes for those with several billion in assets.

This. I used to thinkt he same as Mara does, but the simple fact is that 0.0 industry is so totally gimped that cutting off the logistics pipeline would wipe out sov 0.0 within a month.

So read the rest of my posts :P

I hope CCP does, otherwise it's "delete JBs". Fixed!

As nullsec becomes pretty empty...

Nullsec was working fine before JBs, why would removing them break JBs? But that is a side issue: where in my previous posts did I say "remove JBs"?

+1 love it. Then I read it. I like the idea, but I think a better idea would be to charge players with a negative sec status to a kind of entry fee into high sec. Since gankers make isk with very little actual risk or loss of isk. All it takes is an orca alt and that ganker just picked up your cargohold and salvaged your wreck. Since it seems CCP wont be adding a way for capsuleers to become space cops..Which would be fun, the gankers need opposition. It must be boring always ganking miners with no player trying to pop them and their pods. Even though what I wrote will not change anything in null sec it is a thought on this idea.

I don't think having a tax like this would really make people want to go to null sec. Just bring more tears to the forums.

1) not keen on being taxed on assets. This is stuff I've already paid for. Instead, how about something added to station transactions in hisec space? It'd also make sense to have a lower tax in a 0.5 station than in a 1.0 (and would let people choose a level of risk/reward that suited them).

Several governments (and CONCORD would love to join them) enjoy the income brought in by property taxes.

CCP would probably find the idea of an isk sink of such a nature quite appealing.

Nicolo Da'Vicenza has already answered that :)

Cascade Imminent has a mining license scheme, which may or may not be legit: I have not been out there myself to answer the important question, GÇ£what is the catch.GÇ¥ (besides being in Detorid, and being under FAILA command)

I'm suggesting that this kind of thing should be brought into the game itself, rather than being implmented with external websites and whatnot. It should function more like an actual contract with alterable terms - my payment to the alliance may be in x amount of ore rather than ISK. The contract should also be flexible enough to cover other careers too - the ability to create similar contracts for traders, explorers etc should be possible within the system.

One reason it should be brought in-game is because it will have some legitimacy. As soon as people heear about licenses in Eve, they think "scam". Using the in-game contract system means that a corp can automatically be set as blue to the alliance and it may not be possible for the alliance to change this status manually (not yet sure if the alliance would need to reserve the right to manually change it or not).

My favorite Southern pet story was when Circle-of-Two threw their 'landlords' Ushra'Khan out of their own space the second -A- was busy with the DRF.

Do you visit lowsec, where there's much less of a threat to your implants?

[quote=Tyberius Franklin][quote=masternerdguy]L4 Missions removed from hi - stick
More L4 Mission agents added to lo - carrot

Which solves the problem of lo sec being depopulated.

Which is what the quotes OP is trying to entice you with a dried out turd, that wouldn't bring a single person to low. It would just cause a massive QQ fest. Which is probably the real reason why he didn't suggest increasing the reward to properly out weigh the risks.
