Quoting me is not Propaganda. Taking out of context, hacking out all valid points and attacking the vague points is propaganda, spin and usually aimed not at discussion but to discredit someone for no clear reason.
You and yours continue to play EVE from a very strict ISK accumulation point of view and you will always be restricted by that value. You don't want to invest the time in your space because it not ISK sensible to do so. If that Sov is to you is an ISK faucet, you got what you deserve. |

Maybe it's true that folks just aren't as tough as they used to be. yes, that's why CCP gave you hisec folks revamped exhumers, a simplified aggression system, simplified missions and an otherwise easy mode game Gave High Sec folks a revamped Exhumer? I guess when you hit null the exhumer reverts to its old trashy stats. Cry moar, ISK mongerer. Just how far down the troll hole are you going to dig yourself? Inquiring minds wants to know.

So if we straight out swapped the stats for hi-sec NPC stations and 0.0 sov stations, that would be A-OK with you?

Nah, I think we'll just continue importing from hisec, and leave nullsec a complete wasteland outside of fleet fights. I'm sure CCP agrees that this, instead of having a bustling nullsec where non-sissies can thrive, is the optimal situation for eve as a whole.

Oh, and no, sov is not an ISK faucet. Quite the opposite, in fact. You still don't get it. You still focus on this poorly calculated notion you have of profits. It's about production capacity and capability, which is needed to have more ships to throw at the enemy, and which is so poorly developed that it is better in every single way to produce everything you can a jump or two away from Jita and then burn freighter fuel to get it to the end user, rather than to produce it locally. These ware as not made to profit from: they are made to be destroyed.
Interesting point. Let's imagine missions worked like anoms in 0.0
First you'd have to fight off all the other missioners that want access to the agent. Only the winning alliance gets to speak to the agent; everyone else gets nothing.
Then you'd have to pay about 2 billion ISK in structures, which require a freighter (they won't fit in JFs) to move into place for the agent to live in.
Then you'd have grind up the level of missions that the agent offered, starting from level 1.
Once you've got the agent up to level 4 missions, you have to keep grinding them, or the missions will start to degrade down, at a rate approximately 1 level per day.
The agent demands a hundred million ISK a week in kickbacks just to keep talking to you. If you miss a payment, he leaves and you have to entice him back and grind the mission level back up again from scratch.
At any time, a stronger group might turn up, destroy your structures, and claim the agent for themselves. MatrixSkye Mk2: "Remember: You consent to unconsensual PVP the moment you press the "Undock" button." |

That's funny, normally we hear a lot of complaints whem 0.0 visit hi-sec en masse.
Still, if that's what you really want, I'm sure we can arrange something.

There is something I have learned in my many years of EVE and that is that very few actually get the boon work. While we see a hand full of people here on GD pumping for a better Null, if CCP give them that better Null, most of their alliances will be out doing mindless pew pew while a very choice batch of people sit in stations rolling in untold trillions.
High Sec as the core and High sec as the equalizer eliminates the centralization of ISK in the manufacturing aspect of EVE.
This isn't about a better Null. This is about a better ISK pooling farm.
You know this, I know this, you know I know this so you go out of your wat to discredit me. I have come to the conclusion that CCP while they won't support me on the forums know that I am right too. Maybe they give me more credit than I deserve because I can tell you and them, I am growing tired of fighting this war on my own. I grow tired of the never ending assault on my play style or my ethic in EVE. |

You keep trying to convince me I don't matter. You keep trying to convince everyone that I am not to be given any credit. You try and try, so very hard. It's just a video game, right?

You seem to be under the mistaken impression that nullseccers don't have highly capabable industry, trade, invention, etc alts who make us a whole bunch of ISK tyvm.
Well we do.
All we're asking is for it to be viable for us to conduct those activities in 0.0, in the space we own and fought for and invested time and effort into. We'll be making pretty much the same amount of ISK. We'll be making pretty much the same stuff. We'll be making pretty much the same ISK, too. All we need is for the facilities in sov 0.0 to be capable of being brought to the same level as they are in hi-sec, plus maybe a small increment to account for that investment and the risk factor.

I've said it already. It's too easy for you guys to regulate the player content now. What you ask for cements status Quo. It stagnates EVE and the only purpose it serves is to put EVE at risk of being an even bigger RMT haven. I can't compete with Null sec now. What you want simply fortifies your unbreakable position as the Over Lords of EVE. That isn't good for EVE. |

Just to get back on topic, having actually lived under a NRDS policy (Foundation/Great wildlands). I can tell you that it is VERY tempting to shoot neutrals. However, NPC null is probably the only place that NRDS would actually work because of itGÇÖs proximity with high sec. Some of the benefits of a NRDS policy is allowing neutrals to trade at stations, providing much needed equipment & ships at reasonable prices.
Once you start getting deeper into player control sov, NBSI is the only way to go.

I'll say it again: our manufacturing, mission, invention, R&D, RP & trade alts already exist. They're safe in hi-sec where you can't touch them. They're making stuff and ISK for us right now.
Could you explain to me how you think they'd be less vulnerable in 0.0 than they already are in hi-sec? Because the whole reason we 0.0ers want to repatriate our economy is so that more people will be undocked and active in 0.0, and then we will have the opportunity to **** with each other more than we do now. And so will you! It's a party that you're invited to! MatrixSkye Mk2: "Remember: You consent to unconsensual PVP the moment you press the "Undock" button." |
