I found it just fitting (causation due to lore) that their ships were nimble and good for hit and run. I also found it interesting Minmater having a lot of low sec, it was just fitting with the rest of the lore. The actual ships choices came later, actually I asked my first corp CEO which Minmatar ships were good for me to train and he told me.
This is my little case, I am sure I am not alone at this. Not everybody have born with pure min max and quickest path to fortune in mind.
ok, we have come around to your argument of "some people might be subtlely influenced to train ships of the race of their chosen character despite there being no in-game reason or advantage to matched bloodlines and shiptypes whatsoever, and therefore bloodline matters, while irl citizenship is utterly meaningless", and therefore highsec players have actual interaction with the empires they live in and actual responsibilities to that empire
that is so transparently insane i am willing to leave it at that |

I can't fly with an inplant-less clone in these days, because I have my clones in a Rorqual and some 0.0 regions and don't want to pop them.

i am not afraid of risk, I venture into wormholes in a ship that warps cloaked with +3s, which means I basically cannot die unless I screw up and my death is basically a rounding error but I could die 14 times for the price of someone losing a single freighter in null (the thing we are actually discussing and I would never do) so clearly i am not afraid of risk

I supposed you missed the "I have my JF and it's not for Jita shows" bit. You also missed how since I don't switch clones I hardly keep +3 implants on the one I have in hi sec and also missed how I venture with what I have, the last times I never had a cov ops, I did not even have probes.

there are nations, there are not magical npc guards there are, in fact, vibrant markets (vfk) but because 0.0 industry is broken they are not vibrant markets you can easily import to them if you have friends and can deal with the risk
you basically just want the game to hold your hand and protect you from any and all risk so you can do the same thing you do in highsec in something with a different name |

You can't find all moon materials everywhere. R32s are regional (which is why technetium is such a problem), as are R8s. As any given T2 ship requires basically "everything" to build, you are forced to import something as a result, whether it's the T2 ship itself or the materials (it's easier to import the T2 ship than it is to import the missing materials and run a reaction chain on them to build the ship with, hth).

uh if you do any manufacturing in empire not in a station you're just dumb; the amount of risk-free cost-free open manufacturing slots in empire is staggeringly huge and there is no reason to use a pos ever
plus it's only in the last few months you could even attack a pos if the owner wasn't an idiot |

your whole idea for npc guards is based on the idea that a nullsec empire would have to be patrolled 24/7.
which is a load of bunk.

now granted, you're going to say something dumb like "but there are veldspar rocks hyuk hyuk" but nobody is going to do that because a)everything else in 0.0 pays better than mining veldspar and b)if you want to mine veldspar you can do it in near-perfect safety in a 1.0 system
therefore, nobody will do it. and nobody ever has, in like a decade
previously you could live in the drone regions: as the only 0.0 with trit, it was unsuprisingly the only one with significant industry
doesn't exist, now nowhere in 0.0 has trit |

Of course., what is very telling is the fact that not one dev has commented in this thread. They comment on any thread under the sun, but when there is a discussion about wiping out a massive amount of ISK from the majority of their players, they are strangely silent.
CCP could end all this speculation in an instant by saying "no, we are not touching high sec industry", or "yeah, we plan on hammering high sec industry as soon as we have put the finishing touches on a massive nerf to high sec PvE".
But no, they choose to remain silent and let the null sec propagandists attack and post lie after lie after lie. Null sec zealots just can't get their heads around the fact that manufacturing caps, supercaps, and other ships is one huge industry. Test and goons both have a T1 ship replacement policy, so they can't be having too much difficulty getting ships to their null sec people.
To someone who might be reading these forums for the first time, it would almost seem that the ISD and CCP are agreeing with the null sec zealot philosophy and letting them post anything they want.
But that would be impossible, since once called to CCP, the ISD and all devs immediately completely forget their roots in the game, all their allegiances, all their friends in game, and never, ever let their previous biases influence their moderation on these forums. |

instead you need to adapt to deal with insecurity through superior force or avoid it through careful scouting, not by guarding the gates when nobody's trying to break in
I toodled a freighter around dek the other day, not by having scads of goons orbiting the gates but by scouting the systems and moving it when I could do it safely |

an alternative solution would have been a falcon alt and something that could instapop a dictor, so the freighter could escape (i saved my freighter once by beating on the ship that tried to tackle it until it bugged out years ago, for example)

Less than 5% of total ship production (measured by volume of mineral consumption) so not that huge, sorry. And because of how bad nullsec industry is, doing it is a huge kick in the balls. Supercaps are built in nullsec only because they have to be, caps are only built in nullsec by the most masochistic.

Yet another load of drivel about fixing what doesn't need fixing.
But, OK, lets follow through on the OP's load of rubbish and lets assume that CCP, 'fix the unbroken problem'.
Then PvPer ( I mean real PvPers, not the "I can gank miners" idiots) Can't restock their wallets fast after going on a loosing streak
Ship and module prices go through the roof, making it even harder for real PvPers to get back into the game.
Eve is a well ballanced game, I'm sure that CCP are monitoring things close and will only change things as and when they decide it is needed to be changed.
To the OP, stop dictating how others play their game, a game that they pay to play how they wish.
And if you can't live with that, then go find another game that will let you enter into risk free ganking
"High Sec need Fixing" = "I'm a **** poor PvPer and need CCP to force none PvP enabled players to line up so as that I can shoot them"
End of story, admit the truth |
