Now this; instead of spamming CCP for hi sec nerf why not ask for a new feature like NPC mercs to help guard their POS'es and assets.
this will help for players in Null not having to be on guard protecting moons all the time giving them more freedom to roam.

Well then this is why null cant get their cht together cause nobody wants to make it work but want all the benefits.

Cost, I incurred the same costs in hi, no risk....hardly all it takes is for another to come along and war dec to get a cheapo corp off the moon and guess what no more pos, if said cheapo corp wants to fight then they risk their pos.

Make a self sustainable POS just for null where no fuel is required, I'm onboard with that absolutely yes.

Sure, manufacturing is done in NPC stations, however have you tried doing copying or research or invention this is near impossible to get a slot without a long line up to months.

You know what makes manufacturing more difficult in hi, competition, competition is the nerf to hi sec industrial toons everybody and their mothers are manufacturing so profits are fleeting and most stuff I sell at a loss because of competition.

As someone who sold my ratting character months ago and went into production in highsec to make my money, the answer to that question is "literally nothing".

The population of hi is greater then that of null, which brings this full circle, how come null isn't utilizing fully it's moons to manufacture cause even a small POS can support I believe 4 to 5 manufacturing structures each with X number of slots but someone said null indy's won't do it because they want a guarantee of a profit.

Don't want to keep BPO's / BPC's in a POS or an outpost, then have a ship with small secure cargo container with bunch of nick nacks inside too and before logging out go back climb into the ship of choice and log out in a ready safe spot in YOUR system if your not aggroed by some timer then you are safe just like cloaky nuets who harass 0.0 and log out in your system only later to reappear. (And by the way I'm not suggesting to do this with billions in BPO's / BPC's.)

And your making my point, why nerf hi sec if it's beneficial due to prohibitive cost doing it in null.
it's like taking a race car and pulling out the V8 and replacing it with a 4 cylinder engine and thinking your gonna win the race

I sit and wonder how the hell Goonswarm pulls off all the cht they doodoo, burn jita blah blah, my only guess is they must have a hell of crue manning the ship cause they do as they please.
They must be busy training, building, mining because they are one of the most successful corporations in game how the F do they doodoo it, freaking kudos to the most hated group in the game.

I myself may not approve of their tactics but they get results.

Ok I'm delusional but it still stands, you can anchor a POS at each of those moons can't you?
Your unwillingness to do so cause of risk means what, you have no will I still invite you to live here in hi sec.

I know there are issues regarding POS'es in 0.0, it's not insurmountable but there are ways to mitigate losses you just need to figure out creative ways to do stuff instead of worrying about hi sec slots and mechanics.

meanwhile using up all of the slots in Nonni for an entire month costs a grand total of 126,500,000 ISK

install cost is 1,000 ISK and cost per hour is 333 ISK whether you're in Jita or in the most remote part of lowsec or NPC 0.0

OK Let's look at this in a slightly different way, maybe instead of messing with High Sec and driving all ship prices through the roof even more (a goddamn recon/HIC now costs as much as a CS 3 years ago).

Rather than jack up manufacturing costs in High Sec maybe there should instead be an improvement to the manufacturing facilities available at POSes and Outposts. Making it cost effective to manufacture ships in null without the market spiraling ever further upwards.

This would be in the interests of both parties since in theory (can't do anything about alliances who set silly costs in their outposts) if high sec costs increase everyone in game ends up worse off. Your goods may now be made in null sec but you will still have paid the cost you don't want to pay now. Instead of making your life better you now have to rat, plex, mine, wh, etc. more to pay for the cost.

And that is why I advocated looking at ways to reduce the cost of manufacturing in null sec.

OK specifics?

Make outpost refining more efficient
Increase the manufacturing slots on POSes and Outposts

IMPROVE the null sec facilities to acheive balance rather than nerf the HIgh Sec ones, I am on your side to a point things should be done to help manufacturing in null sec but and here is the crucial issue for me.

NOT AT THE EXPENSE OF THE REST OF US.

Why should they be better? Because some goon might come along and gank you in a belt? no wait sorry that is high sec.
Cos all the mins i need are on my doorstep? no wait a second that is null sec.

Make it perfect in both null and high sec and achieve true fairness.

Reduce the Material Multiplier in 0.0 stations and assembly arrays that are anchored in 0.0.
Increase the yields of low end minerals roids in 0.0.

Fixing POSs/Corp roles would also go a long way in helping 0.0 industry.

Wow I missed that "why not have everyone in nullsec run a POS" post

again the old problem comes from all sources, 1. the lack of interest in industry from part of the null dwellers, 2. the thing that CCP keeps nerfing high sec, when the problem is that null should have better rewards (not only in terms of bounties and resources but in industrial processes).
