Hey guys - let's ratchet down the rhetoric - I thought the IT offer was an amusing way to refuse entry, but I also wanted to see if it was way outside the realms of reality.
So, I'd say I've learned a fair bit here and that my goals were met.
I still maintain that large alliances should be limited somehow - power corrupts and we cannot leave it to individuals to police themselves in that regard. So, some limits need to be imposed IMO.
I thought the link in the thread starter offered an interesting perspective, but I also expected large alliances to balk at it because it would interfere with their control and conquest plans.
All in all, balance must be served - and righrt now, IMO again, I dont see the balance here in how things are currently.
i don't believe you really understand eve, the players of eve, nor the concept of a sandbox game. maybe you would be more comfortable in a game where your content is instanced and hostile interaction with other players is more consensual.
it is our space if you don't like the rates, rent elsewhere or take your own.

Oh, I get it believe me - I'm a field grade officer in the US Army, my friend - I'm not stupid and there is no need to talk down to me.
If Eve gets out of balance and pilots become less free or coerced and/or forced into joining a power block to get the goodies of 0.0, Eve will eventually lose its appeal. So, IMO the control and reach of large alliances ought to be artificially limited, with sov being tied to member numbers and increasingly higher costs as more systems are sov'd, up to the maxium allowed (see thread starter link).
The fact that you're advocating for something that benefits your own interests only means you have zero gravitas on the matter.
you are operating under the misconception that i was speaking down to you. since you seem to imply that your rl job infers privilege in a video game i will now proceed to do so. in response to your accusation of zero gravitas i say you sir have zero dignitas. exemplified by your appearance upon these forums expounding upon the unfair practices of the holders of the nul-sec real estate you where inquiring. your inability to use use your leadership skills in acquiring space/compatriots to conquer space hardly needs mitigation by artificial means ie. ccp changing game mechanics to suit your playstyle/ability. from my point of view you would be guilty of an absense of gravitas in seeking the mecanics to change to more suite your interests. thank you hypocrite.

because eve is a game of altruism, compassion, and trust RIGHT? the hypocrisy of your posts is awesome
the tunnel vision you have exhibited here is almost plague black in proportion. of course large alliances are going to work for their own self interest, that is human nature. your own posts have shown the same amount of self interest, ignoring rational arguments and debate out of hand while cramming your opinion down our throats. the agenda you seem bent on foisting off on the community while more verbose than most bawww threads is just that, "ccp i want the game to cater to my whim!waaaaaaaaaa".
the game is far from perfect but the new sov system is better than the pos bashing that went before it. if you haven't done a 14 hour stretch of that then lucky you.
the court of public opinion isn't going to change our rental policy so use your supposed skill set from rl, inspire comrades, take space. or pay like a peasant for a lord's protection in their domain.
we all know you will just continue to cry here. prove me wrong.

Spoken like a true beneficiary of the current system - way to go in not disguising your own selfish interests & remaining closed minded to other ideas.
fixed that for you. comprehension 4tw
