I have to ask, because I do feel this is the cause of many problems in eve.

Consider some of the issues..

1) Alliances that have been around for years have a massive advantage over new players and alliances. Already well established, have massive ISK income, have massive super fleets that new players now have to beg and pay to be part of all this? or even pay. If people tell me well alliances die all the time, Ill scream. Yes but the same old people are just recycled to create a new alliance of the same people, rinse and repeat.

2)Older alliances did not have to compete with what is now 50K people online rather it was 8K or something, new players/alliances/corps now have this to contend with.

3) New alliances/corps/players cannot get access to the moon gold and riches because its controlled by the old players/corps/alliances.

New Alliances = meaning newer players rather than new alliance/old players.

So basically 0.0 is so entrenched and controlled that its impossible for new players/alliances/corps to have the same advantages.

4) Is this why lag will never be fixed? Because there are simply too many people for one universe?

5) Is this why nice quality features, more real world stuff in eve doesnt happen, and eve is just a dark dead place. because it will cause too much lag and the server cant cope.

6) Is this why we have a stupid 30 second timer on stuff, because the server simply cant catch up being in one universe

7) Fleet fights - nuff said.

8) Are we missing out on what eve could be, becuase its on one universe?

9) Are people missing out on experiencing what others have because of one universe.

10) are we kidding ourselves thinking that EVE ONE SHARD universe can actually work? Isnt this why many other MMOS have more than one world you can play one? Are CCP trying to keep this 'Look we have a single universe game' plaque, and we amazing.. but infact as eve has constantly grown and this is just not feasible anymore?

11) Are people too stubborn to realise that eve cannot cope on a single universe? and cling onto this one universe this is my eve title

12) Are we letting new players slip through our fingers because we simply dont offer them the safety and comfort of learning the game in safer universes

13) Shouldnt people have the option whether to carebear or pvp? Rather than not given the choice? In eve your part of pvp whether you want to or not..Meaning you can be attacked by anyone anywhere anytime..

14) is CCP really thinking about its player base and future of eve or is this really just a personal project

These are just a small amount of points on this issue, would be for once good to have a serious discussion on this...sadly im sure the trolls will be feeding...
