hisec activities should only cover the cost of merlin hulls, maybe a caracal.

It should be impossible to make enough isk for plex in hisec imo. Having the safest activities in game generate enough isk to plex your characters goes against the risk-vs-reward ethos of EVE Online.
Besides, it's a stupid goal anyway, because look what happened when incursionfaucets were introduced: Plex prices jumped. |

Carebear fallacy #3928: Nullsec is not dangerous (then why aren't YOU out ratting there, mr carebear?)

They want to drive away customers until the game completely collapses. Short sighted idiots...
lmao are you serious
Null, lowsec and wh players do not want to drive customers away. We want EVE to continue to thrive.
And I have no idea where you get off calling us the short sighted ones, when our complaints are specifically regarding the long-term effects these decisions will have on the game (from catering more towards the mindless drone that is the wow player to the effects on the in game economy from things like mining barge buffs, failscales crimewatch, etc).
If anyone can be classed as "short-sighted idiots" it's the hisec idiots who want immediate gratification and refuse to consider the long term effects their stupid hisec desires will have on gameplay and the playerbase, and refuse to accept that some adjustments (particularly ones that might reduce how fast they fatten their wallets) may be needed for the true betterment of EVE

You also seem to have fallen for the old "do whatever you can to get as many new players as quick as possible = good business plan" fallacy. It doesn't mean jack if you can't retain those players and alienate the core audience who kept your game alive for a decade in the process. You may get a nice little bubble at the start, but it quickly bursts.
Just look at how many people initially signed up for swtor and the state of it now. |

I would imagine that if playerA pays his/her monthly sub, same way playerB does, whether it's with ingame PLEX or with a credit card, both are entitled to the same usage and fun in this game, else you're just being close-minded about what "rights" you have as opposed to others who play this game.
By your statement, am I supposed to think that you do not pay to play this game because you earn PLEX and that the same facility should not be made available to those folks in Highsec ? That's basically what you're saying.
Big LOL.

No one is saying they shouldn't have equal rights or possibilities, just that certain areas (hisec vs null vs low vs wh) may need balancing differently. Everyone would have the same "right" and opportunity to move into whichever type of space they like and reap the corresponding rewards, but if they choose hisec then that is choosing the much reduced reward (as a trade-off for the much reduced risk) |
