You made your bed (creating the largest blue coalition in mmo history), time to sleep in it.

Amusing that you just assume you would have zero resistance fighting Razor and FA.

Why bother debating something we both know will never happen. Goons need Razor and FA.

Sounds like you've had the revelation that we like to call "It's Just a Game."

Future symptoms may include interest shifting into a more relaxed play style, one where your log-in hours revolve around the real life instead of trying to make real life bend to the needs of your corp/alliance. Also increased real life pocket money as all of those extra accounts slowly slip down & eventually fall off of your priorities list. Though you on-line friends will see you less your off-line friends will be seeing you more often. People will accuse you of quitting, of not having enough commitment to the game. Ignore those people. You don't need them in your life. Also, you may start to become more tan as you spend more time outside.

This is known as the "casual gaming" way of doing things, a style most often by used by AFK miners & other people how have Stuff to DoGäó Do not be alarmed - we are actually one of the largest groups in EvE. We just don't have flags, or mandatory schedules or meetings. There are no real requirements to it, in fact. That's what makes it so popular, by the way - it takes so little of your time.

Null sec was supposed to be sort of and end game for EVE. Unfortunately it's become more like the corner of the sand box where the cats go poo.
It's boring, much of it is empty. And most high-sec players have no desire to go there anymore.

Years ago, you couldn't even consider trying to get into most 0.0 gates without a cloak and some skill, now, it's rare to see a gate camp at a 0.0 entrance. This all goes back to lack of people in 0.0, and lack of interest in going there.

I think the only way to reinvigorate Null is to force a fragmentation of power blocs, but I have no idea how to achieve that with current game mechanics.

I guess it's partly that there are people who like to build things, create something and others who only want to ruin what others make..the "famous" tear harvesters. It's those people that I feel null sec, and especially low sec are full of. I too thought how grand it would be to be in a large fleet fighting for riches in the vastness of space. Instead I read about giant lag fests, lag as a weapon, spanning convo's as a weapon, bots galore. Certainly not what is advertised.

Oh and the seeing two people who are in big null sec alliances having a measureing contest in this thread tells me alot too.A couple of folks actually had their own good reasons for living in null, most of the rest are just trolls. If the percentage of trolls, KB hoes is that high in null sec, well...no wonder it sucks.

So lets say they flip the income around, bottom up and they enable industry to do its thing on par, if not better hopefully than in high sec. Then what?

What does it take to hold sov in a system? Don't tell me guts and glory, tell everyone here what it technically takes to do it, game mechanic wise.

Kiss my Jolly Rodger ass.

I was also talking about cost. How much does it cost to have sov in a system with no station and no iHub. One with just an iHub. One with just a station. And finally one with both station and iHub.

Nullsec corps & alliances that make you feel like a slave are terrible anyway & they make the rest of us look bad.

And why pray do you think the comments are expressed so often as they are? Maybe just maybe they hold some merit?

This is not their fault. This is the fault of how it's designed. Yes, I have only spent a small amount of time in Null, but I read... I pay attention. I've been playing this game for years off and on and I've read post after post after post about high vs null space from BOTH sides. I don't know what half the acronyms mean that are used and I'm afraid to ask because the moment I do, I'll get a bunch of ass-hats telling me to learn how to play. But I do know the layouts and workings of null. And I know why people go there and I know why other people don't.
