Highsec should be for those not interested in PvP. For those that are interested in PvP, you've got pretty much the entire universe to play in. Oh but wait.... don't the players there tend to shoot back?? 
The truth of the matter is that highsec gankers are afraid of losing their easy-mode. Where else can you get crazy rewards for zero risk? Long as your ganking something worth more than your ships, then your sorted! Whats more, Highsec is the only place where their targets don't shoot back! They've come to enjoy their one-sided PvP. So one sided in fact, i personally don't even see it as PvP. They resist all changes that threaten their way of life, with no regard to EvE as a whole.
I applaud CCP for crimewatch changes, and the new bounty system. For too long the scum of eve has forced itself on those unwilling or uninterested in PvP. I personally think they've done more to harm EvE's continued growth and development than anything else. The creation of their little niche of risk-free cowardly highsec ganking leaves little incentive for players to make the natural progression to low or null space. All so these L33T PvP masters (sarcasm!) can get their risk-free kills to look all awesome on their sad little killboards.
Perhaps with these changes they'll return to the depths of lawless space for some real PvP. But, could they handle EvE with easy-mode turned off?? Only time will tell. |

Yeah or that. 
But i imagine you'd simply kill off all the players not interested in PvP. Which so happens to be the majority.
Would be alot of fun though!  |

I think you'll find that the "cold harsh universe" is everywhere but highsec.
Ever tried doing some pvp elsewhere?
Oh wait.... don't they shoot back there? Yeah, sod that, best go gank noobs in highsec to make yourself look awesome. EvE is much better with easy-mode on, isn't it? |
