It may not even be the case. Could this be signs CCP has a vendetta against NRDS? *puts on my tinfoil hat*

Take off the tinfoil hats. It seems pretty blatantly obvious what this is about. It's lag. Every person appearing on your overview has to be checked against the standings list of you, your corp, and your alliance. When there's 800 guys on grid fighting, that's a lot of checks, and they cap the list sizes to minimize how much the server craps itself.
It's a dumb decision, and it'll kill NRDS. I don't like it. But this really doesn't sound like it was a vendetta. It's just CCP being CCP, fixing the problem that's obvious to them and that we ***** about incessantly, while not really noticing the equally real, but less obvious, problems it'd create. It's not like we haven't seen this before.

I seriously doub that 300 are enough for a single person but for alliances this is just a horrible idea.
CCP fix this please

Come on, devs - this is a stupid and arbitrary limitation that will kill the NRDS lifestyle. Our blues and reds are based on a long history of interaction, are we supposed to just throw that out? You can do better than that! ____________

This decision destroys a major aspect of the sandbox and social play that you say you support, CCP.
Reverse it.

Postscript:
If the following from the RC patch notes is accurate:
Quote:
oEntities labeled "non-agression pact" are moved to Excellent (+10) standing. oEntities labeled "friend" are moved to Good (+5) standing. oEntities labeled "competator are moved to Bad (-5) standing. oEntities labeled "enemy" are moved to Terrible (-10) standing.
Then there's a mistake here because at present 'friend' setting in game = +10 and 'non-aggression pact' setting in game = +5.
I hope this is corrected if the notes reflect what is actually going to happen in the patch or a lot of people's standings are going to be messed up.
I'm inclined to think this is another piece of evidence that some more thought and feedback is required before this change takes place.
If it is locked in for release could we at least have some acknowledgement that it would be considered an issue for a post-release patch?

Increasing the number of alliance levels contacts would help the social networking of Eve a great deal. With alliance level standings becoming the primary standing mode if corps opt in, this number needs to go up.

This little time of not being capped at 300 standings has been heaven for us - we've finally been able to keep a decent picture of hostile/friendly in local and we no longer have to say to people "You're too small to have a standing with us."
Please, please raise or remove the cap.
NRDS is a valid and fun way to play the game. The low number of available standings makes it nearly impossible. -Eva-

Perhaps my post didn't come across as intended. I was not seriously thinking CCP has it out for NRDS,not atm anyway, but I was making a silly joke. Often times when your part of multiple committees, you take for granted others in community A don't have the same thought process as community B. As a Team Fortress 2 fan and an EVE fan, I forget sometimes that just because I think like a TF2 player, and also play eve, not every eve player does.

Hi all. Yes, this has been brought up and dealt with now. Alliances can have other alliances as contacts/standings. You can have up to 2600 of them. Should be more than enough.

Thank you very much CCP Sisyphus, and respect to the dev team for making this a priority.
All the best.

Just like to echo Jade's comments here. Thanks for resolving this as quickly as you did (less than 24 hours from post to resolution!).
As an alliance we're not exactly shy about setting negative standings to people and in the 5 years or so the alliance has existed we're reached about 1000. I'm sure 2600 will last for a while yet

Phew! Thank you so much Sisyphus!
Edit: 2600; is that a Captain Crunch easter egg ? ;)

You should see the full list of contacts for your alliances on sisi now. Recent patch now includes the corrected alliance contact limit (and the mirrored standings from TQ)

Agreed with others, a good response on a potentially important issue.
Out of curiosity (and call it the sceptic in me...) is there scope for this number to be raised with minimal fuss / effort in the future should the need ever arise? |

So is the 2600 just for alliance contacts or does each person get 2600 contacts or are we still stuck at 300? Which between blocked people from jita and my regular people just doesnt seem like enough slots.

You might wanna unblock all older entries and start the blocking process again... I don't know how old your blocklist is but if you have isk spammers from the past year in there you are probably way over the limit and those isk spammers are long gone anyways.
My opinions belong to me, you can't have them!

300 is the limit. Blocked contacts does not count towards that limit.
