Like it says, go to activate strip miner/harvester get a popup if permission not granted because faction standings aren't high enough. All characters could mine with civilian equipment to help NPE; Maybe tweak an anchoring type formula so that even 1.0 systems are available?
This would probably have the biggest effect in reducing the ice mining blobs. Would also encourage new players to round off their earlier experience of the game in order to get the benefit of higher standings.
Any thoughts?? |

If I want to be an industrial pilot, then why should I run missions to grind up rep?
Also, what about Noobs in their noob ships who get missions to mine?
Furthermore, the effort required for reward would be out of whack. You would have to grind tons of rep to get to be able to mine in high sec just to mine the worst ore...
So yea, your idea is very bad.
The formula used for mining standings would limit where a certain play style could happen rather than prevent it altogether.
Mining missions could include a pass from the agent allowing a certain amount of ore from a particular system.
Effort required depends entirely on the formula used - perhaps it could be relatively easy to mine in 0.5 systems?? |

AHA! So you want all of the reward for mining in Null Sec and none of the risk? I get it now. You already have high standing, and you want to be able to make boat loads of ISK by mining ABC ores in high sec and keep the prices from skyrocketing by preventing new players from mining there too... Your idea is incredibad.
Lol no, I'm all for having grav sites in hisec have 0.0 security status. Sadly my standings and number of alts have serious issues so it doesn't apply favorably to me at the minute. Thanks for starting to discuss & the use of incredibad - any suggestions from you to shake things up a bit? |

Looks like Active mining is on the way this winter with ring mining?
Then boost the heck out of low sec, and make null sec so profitable that people risk Skiffs through gate camps to get at it.
The way I see it, restrictions that nerf freeloader parts of hisec serve as a boost to lowsec. |

True, this does seem to kill the idea
