Regarding removing the beacon to help with sites despawning this is good but it won't help despawn sites in asteroid belts in the staging system.
Personally, I'd like to see the 'clear rats from belt' sites to appear throughout the constellation rather than just in the asteroid belt. Quite a few gangs have turned up to constellations and left because there are no sites that are doable with their 3 man gang and the (rightfully) are wary of the risks of joining a larger fleet of people they have no experience.
Also, it would be great to move these kind of lightweight spawns to other bookmarks in the system - Planets, Moons, Customs offices, Stations and Gates.
Of course it would be even more awesome if PI and POS operations would be interrupted by these, but I imagine that making the features talk to each other might be a bit of a stretch. At the very least a planet's customs office might be hard to use simply because there are sansha rats orbiting the customs office. In an ideal world, people with planets or POS's affected by this would get a notification telling them they need to defend their assets.
I understand that Gates probably won't be camped in hi-sec because of the potential for people on autopilot to lose their ships, so, add an option to avoid incursion constellations to the autopilot settings and then let the Sansha loose on the gates. It's possible that trade routes between major hubs may be disrupted leading to effects on the whole of new eden, and that's the kind of thing that would ultimately benefit the game.

What will you do for the mining community? I would like to see ice harvesting drones. Or perhaps an combat exhumer dedicated to mining in hostile locations using only mining drones with high slots dedicated to missiles or turrets.
First thing will be to update my Sig to say CSM6.... I wasn't sure about running.
Truth be told, the CSM can't force CCP to do anything however, if CCP did listen and did exactly as I said I have a list of many things I'd like to see and one of the items near the top of my list is an industry revamp. Mining needs a complete redesign to make it less boring and less macroable, so that you no longer AFK mine, because it's enjoyable. Nerfing the mineral supply from AFK players will increase the rewards for dedicated miners. Similarly we need another round of nerfing mineral input from non-mining sources - i.e. refining mission loot, I published a blog on this subject last year.
However, this is the wrong thread, so I would just like to add that one thing I did like was the effectiveness with which the sansha rats shut down the AFK miners in the constellation. I know it sounds brutal, but seeing all those mining barge wrecks in the belts around agintal really added to the sense that there was a major invasion happening. Vote Illectro for CSM6!

Add another Incursion Penalty to traders, like some additional taxes for market orders in Incursion Space. Would be more realistic.
Have Sanshas camp Gates/Stations even in Highsec (Gate Sentrys and Navy Ships will support players or get destroyed) Combined with that have a warning to appear when you are abut to enter a Incursion System like "You are about to enter a incursion system, and evil sansha pirates will gank you everywhere. Do you wish to proceed"
The incursion penalty for traders trying to bring supplies in or evacuated materials should be a very real chance of getting their hauler killed by sansha pirates. Vote Illectro for CSM6! Supporting the New Generation of Eve Players |

Someone asserted that t1 frigates are essentially useless, and while I'd tend to agree in general I have found that the super speedy vigil is an excellent tool in an incursion fleet. Low slots are all speed mods, mids are AB, Target painter and sensor booster to boost lock range. Highs don't matter, although I guess it doesn't hurt to fill them for the purpose of aggro pulling. And that's what this can do for a larger fleet, it can zip around target painting targets and moving out of range when it pulls aggro.
I'd argue that t1 frigates are more useful than t1 cruisers which will lack the mobility to keep out of the sansha's range or the tank to survive under fire.
So I would absolutely like to see scoring based upon fleet numbers re-worked into a scoring system closer to that used in the alliance tournament. When a fleet is assembled the composition score can be calculated and displayed to the members in the fleet window. So, then it would be viable to take on vanguard sites and harder in a giant swarm of frigates, or indeed rookie ships, and have the rewards be consistent with the players ships.
One thing I realised I haven't tried - Are MWD's usable in the sites? There was a comment some time ago about the ultimate goal of making MWD's usable for all PVE content, and since this is new PVE content I sincerely hope that CCP developers have allowed pilots to use MWD's. Maybe someone can confirm or deny whether MWD's are usable before I get to the game and try it myself. Vote Illectro for CSM6! Supporting the New Generation of Eve Players |

For RP reasons, I would suggest that the incursions be programmed not to occur in already Sansha-held space, particularly their home region Stain.
These sansha are so different than the regular sansha we've been running missions for that I could easily imagine this new threat has split off and sees itself as the True Sansha, the new order which will let nothing stand in its way.
