So I've been thinking about this a while, and although it is beyond a logistical and diplomatic NIGHTMARE by orders of magnitude i can see it having some merit

Didn't Chribba get a station and try something like this?
Or CVA?
but you're right, it's not going to work unless you do it in NPC 0.0
It won't work in regular 0.0 because no one's going to be happy with a station EVERYONE can dock at. It'd just turn into a perma camped station tbh. |

i think the only way for it to work is for Chribba to do it, he's the only person i can think of that most people wouldn't go out of their way to smash it for lulz |

We don't need to believe. You need to make the case that the benefits outweigh the "logistical and diplomatic NIGHTMARE".
Most NPC 0.0 areas have 'hubs' with a reasonably well stocked market, although nothing to compare with the main hi-sec hubs, of course.

if someone were to overcome the logistical and diplomatic nightmare then there would be a brand new hub to provide ships with cheap pew pew material, if there was a place where people weren't constantly blasting eachother i could see lots of people coming from high-sec to try and make their fortunes in null with a place they know wont explode into tiny peices and let them find a place to actually start out their adventure of the harshness of space |

There are already many npc null space trade hubs where trading is very active and business is good for everyone involved in. In sov null space is no need for trade hubs as usually the alliances take care of their business by them self. Renters are a minority in sov null areas, so setting up a hub only for them is pointless. |

Make this happen CCP. Would be a great start in securing some order in high sec and keeping the vermin with delusions of grandeur where they belong. At least until they get bored and need new blood/tears to farm. Also, I would have an excuse to use my blockade runner. |

What do you want CCP to do about it?

Hi, I'm having some problems configuring my overview to fliter out strangers who just want to swing by and buy their stuff. No matter what options I choose, if I make danerous hostile neutrals visible, the innocent shoppers keep on appearing as shootable too. How can I set my client to distinguish them?
Your help is much appreciated.

Really, what you'd need is NPC stations and highsec pockets in the middle of null, with the current status quo. Null resources and a bunch of stuff from highsec.
The issue with trade hubs in null is the serious lack of trit out there, after all. |

Completely missing what eve is there.
CCP have already given you the tools to do this and are not about to declare a trade hub.
Do you think that's how Jita started?
CCP just turned around one day and went "this system here is the games main trade hub"?? |

Null is big, and there is always an island of NPC null systems, you can always stock stuff in there, and it probably won't cause any nightmares. And yes, people do that, making some ISK in the process, it's just apparently amount of such risk-takers isn't enough to saturate anything.

You already do have on, don't you? It's just a bit harder than open CAS/UOC chat and ask "What are trade hubs?" to find places people will look for supplies in.
As far as I can tell people don't make much fuss out of such small hubs so that at least lazy pirates won't go there hoping to intercept some goodies.
That said, you'd be better off with Jump Freighter than with Blockade runner, I think. |

For that to happen the advantages of having a trade hub would have to far outweigh the advantages of camping it, flipping it, etc. The only way I see it happen is having a force guarding the system, surrounding systems, gates, undock, etc, 24/7. A force strong enough to deal with any opposition. So, where can we find a couple thousand players who have nothing better to do all day than sit around hoping someone breaks the "rules" of the trade system? I know I would not do that. I'd rather have fun.
It's not really that hard to have a cyno chain and jump your stuff to low sec. We already have a trade hub. It's called high sec. |

VFK is a null trade hub, a rather large one at that.
In fact, all the large trade hubs outside of main high sec ones, happen to be located in null.
I don't really understand why, if you don't live in null, would you even want to go to null to buy anything. Everything would cost more due to the way manufacturing works.
Why would you come to null to buy stuff?
I might get it a little if there was actual stuff to do in the systems beyond what little consumable content is available, but there isn't really a heck of a lot fo ryou to do out here other than buy some stuff and then fly to NPC null or high sec with it.
It sounds like it would be a "cool" thing to do, but even if you removed the logistic and diplomacy barriers, there's simply no reason other than the novelty. |

Mate, 0.0 is completely safe. Safer than highsec tbh, a life of leisure and ease, filled with comforts where we bathe in isk. I read it on EVE-O, hundreds of NPC corp members told me so. No not believin

if you have the isk, and the market order slots, blackfrog logistics can move the stuff for you relatively cheap.

As said there are a lot of Null sec trade hubs with a well fed market.
Fell free to visit us in HED-GP which is easy to reach from high sec and take a look for youself. |

Ah, but do they have the Jita local chat spam? Because no hub is complete without that.
The poor alliance sods that managed to already seed a hub for their people just don't know how to do it right. |

They should give outposts just a ridiculous numbers of manufactoring slot like 500 and a base refining yield of 50% which can be upgraded to 100% with that industry upgrade.
So far npcs stations are much more interesting for a hub location simply because you can even do pve stuff there and collect LP for machariels, vindcators and nightmares to spend them on.
And since you cannot take sov in those systems it is unlikly some alliance will come to shoot you out of there.
Maybe even make every entry null system an npcs system with an npcs station where you can gear up again after being ganked.
