thank you for the npc alt post that is of the usual npc alt post caliber

The "devs" already answered these sort of question many many times; while they rarely say that this is a pvp game (for obvious PR and marketing reasons), they have clearly stated that Eve is not a non-conflict (pvp) or a cozy and comfy themepark game, where you can go and do stuff safely, without any intervention from other players. This is one of them :

MALARKY the .8 nerf to HI & 1.2 buff to NULL payouts was exceeded in Incursion payout differences and still NULL cried for Incursion nerfs until itwas granted & it broke incursions to the point they are now dying

It doesn't seem like you like to play multiplayer games really. Perhaps a real solo game, would go better with your solo play style.

This has been said time and time again, nullsec needs to get huge buffs when it comes to its manufacturing capabilities, and there also needs to be other economic incentives for people to move out of hisec as well. In short, buff manufacturing, invention, copying, research, offices etc heavily in nullsec, increase manufacturing costs and sales taxes etc in hisec, and as nullsec improves in sustainability, more incentives will be had by nullsec alliances to actually incentivize defense fleets, roaming gangs'll have things to do again, and hopefully a majority of the people who are currently griefing in hisec should find ways to keep occupied in nullsec instead of hisec.

There'll still be people who are deathly afraid of doing anything outside of hisec, and nobody'll be stopping them from doing exactly that; it'll just be less efficient to make isk there.

if you read his post, you'll note he says he doesn't do them, so your summary isn't very good

I see absolutely no reason to remove hisec towers, they're a ***** to grind up the standings for, and all they do is provide a few extra boons. And they can be taken down in a war.

I'd love to see where you get the "just how kneejerk all your suggestions are". Do you have a list of "all my suggestions"? Care to provide that list?

I guess you're all bittered up on nullhate, so I'll spell it out explicitly, just for you:

I do not do the following in nullsec, because it's more effort vs reward than doing the same in hisec:
- Mining
- Ratting
- Manufacturing
- Inventing
- Research
- Copying

I do not do the following in nullsec, because the pay is ****:
- Salvaging

I do the following in nullsec, because it's what nullsec is for:
- Shoot people in the face and taunt them in local
- Run PI extraction

I do the following in hisec, because it's less effort vs reward than doing the same in nullsec:
- Mining
- Ratting
- Manufacturing
- Inventing
- Research
- Copying

I do the following in hisec, because the reward is worth it:
- PI Factories

I do not do the following in hisec, because the pay is ****:
- Salvaging

I have decided to do the following in hisec, because nullsec is boring outside of fleets:
- Gank mining barges
- Gank freighters
- Troll pubbies


"gg" indeed. Care to try again?

I do the following in hisec, because it's less effort vs reward than doing the same in nullsec:
- Ratting

I take it you don't fathom the effort part of the "effort vs reward".

So L4s are nothing but 8k rats? Interesting.

You're in space, shooting rats. It's ratting. Or are you going to try to say that running anoms isn't ratting, but "anomming"?

Anomalies != complexes.
