Hrm... If I didn't know any better, it seems CCP can justify itself with its current subscription numbers. "Entitlement" is a euphemism for "I hate the way you play and it makes me cry like a baby". If you fantasize about being immoral it means you enjoy being immoral deep down. |

We already have industrial characters. I have one that I use to build non-capships in nullsec. And I'm considered an oddball for doing it. Most of our members end up moving their industry operations to highsec for a variety of reasons. If you want to make T2 stuff, it is pretty much required you do it in highsec because it is the only place where you can easily acquire and move large amounts of T2 building materials. Even our members who mine (and yes, we do have guys that enjoy mining for some reason) have been packing up and moving to highsec because of current mineral prices. You can make more consistent income sucking up scordite and pyroxeres a few jumps out of Jita than dealing with spod and maintaining a high industry index in some backwater nullsec system. Much of our complaints about highsec industry and ideas for nerfs are about getting out own industry guys to move back to nullsec. Sir you said earlier that industry in hi is not confined to hi, and that to you as a null industrialist it's a big f'ing deal, one of my problems living in null was the lack of BPC BPO availablility, I tried to change that I got blown to bits trying to "make it" work the problem I had and you have is that most industrialists do not want to be constant targets it's contrary to building. If you assure me it's a problem then why, can't you sell them to corp mates? You want higher prices for hi end minerals null has to tighten supply just like OPEC does IRL those Arab states have a conglomeration all working to keep supplies at a certain level, which involves cooperation most nullies can't seem to do. There is a reason why industry doesn't work in null but it is not hi sec. See gun toting trigger happy folks, see mineral supply, see moon goo sales, see unable to dock at outposts, it's not a hi sec thing, why can't null sec see this. I just wonder why you make it sound like it's hi sec's fault null can't get it together but at the same time a Goon said he'd get a fleet of 6000 tornados to visit hi sec but yet I'm supposed to believe industry in null is broken thru and thru? No, I said that.
High sec is not a bubble, it does not have a seperate economy, and it is not on it's own server. You are not playing a seperate game from me because you're in high sec.
You can not "tighten" supply of minerals, nor have I ever said mineral prices need to be higher. Null already regulates tech, just like OPEC. Who controls the price of steal? Aluminum? That's the equivilent of minerals in EVE. Tech is like rare earth minerals, China has most of it, and they're now attempting to conrol it's flow and consumption.
The thing I like most about null is that I have no trouble doing invention. Copying and invention slots are up to whoever is setting up your station. If they don't have one with enough then that's there fault, I have zero trouble with that in null. Manufacturing slots are incredibly limitted, and it's frustrating because my other options aren't options because of the cost of those lines. |

Getting blown up is part of living in nullsec. My operation works because there is a decent mark-up for importing stuff. So if I can produce locally and not get blown up, I can undercut the importers and still make a health profit.

I don't understand this.

This isn't possible with asteroid minerals because they are found all over nullsec, sov and npc, so no one group can really control it all. Also, most of the nullsec minerals can be reprocessed out of rat loot.

Those trigger happy guys are the reason I have an decent sales at all. If stuff didn't get blown up, people wouldn't be buying stuff from me. |

Who said anything about making it safe? Unsafe industry is the entire point. Tell me, do you think the current system, where Goons have maximized the profit they receive for delivering raw Tech, and minimized the manufacturing of said tech into products by outsourcing it to a region flooded with cheap labor that has no recourse but to undercut each other, disadvantages them? I'm beginning to see the problem. You guys seem to think that a single area of null can produce the T2 components that a single industrialist needs. That's impossible. The stuff that goes into building T2 goods doesn't come out of a single region of New Eden. Some of it will come from here, some from there, and it all meets in the middle. High sec is like ancient middle east. Trade routes from Europe, Africa, and Asia all converged in regions of the middle east. An asian trader doesn't deliver silk and spices to Rome or Egypt, they sold them to Roman and Egyptian traders in towns in the middle east. Some Arab tribes become very wealthy and powerful for as long as those trade routes all converged on thier territory; that is Jita. You can not fix this with a buff to null sec, it's intended to work this way. The balance can only come from higher T2 production in high sec through the NPC stations, as well as limitting the available slots for T2 production to encourage more of it being done in PoS and low and null stations. We are not self sustaining, and you guys keep thinking we are.
And what happened to those rich states that got fat and lazy, decadent, corrupt, greedy? If anyone in hi sec is getting rich it ante me....blame the traders they are the one's who set prices I assure you when it comes to trading I stink.

That has more production slots than a hisec station 5x, they can be traded around if you want to make more and it can be tanked better without losing as much production as a station. And as there are more moons than stations well why are you complaining? Aside from logistics but that is separate from your claim. |

Oh so you wrote "If I didn't know any better" because you read it in a book or something. I guess that "summer of rage" was actually over nothing and CCP laid of 20% of its success for no reason because according to "Captain Tardbar" CCP was in a really successful financial state at the time. You see he's got this link to "vgchartz.com" where thanks largely to Chinese server growth EVE subs topped 450k - what a relief, Hilmar apologized to the playerbase for nothing!

That is 900,000,000isk in capital expenditures, and almost 400,000,000isk a month in overhead for fuel costs. And that isn't factoring in what ever the local rules are for running alt corps and dropping towers in sov nullsec.
Logistics is _never_ a separate issue when it comes to manufacturing. Living in highsec, where logistics are easier, only makes it seem that logistics is a non-issue. |

Don't forget, that POS on a highsec moon would require a wardec to be attacked enough to be reinforced, and it couldn't be attacked with anything bigger than a battleship. |

That's a good point Shepard. What if accessing station services for a highsec station cost a 125m flat fee and 90m isk per month after that. Then highsec and nullsec industry would legit be on even footing. |

Increasing the manufacturing tax would definitely help with the isk sink issue, though I am not sure quite how much deflation of the money supply an increase of that magnitude would result in. |

Personally, I think going after highsec industry on cost and access to slots would balance out a lot of stuff.
Like a 100x increase in install cost, and 10x increase in per hour costs. And either use better standing to lower install cost or increase max number of slots one can use.
As it is now, you can roll a new industry alt with what ever race and plop them in any faction's station and have everything available for dirt cheap. We already accept standings for lowering refining and sales taxes, and opening POS anchoring based on system security level. There should be standings involved in who gets to use research and manufacturing slots and how much they cost. |

They raised it once, they saw it did nothing but encouraged peopel to form one man corps. Raise it again, and it does the same.
Higher taxes only starts to be a problem for new players. It doesn't solve the droping of your corp when there's a wardec, or encourage anyone to join other peoples corps.

I am not saying that the tax rates should not be increased, it is actually quite a good idea to increase the taxes on manufacturing. What I am saying is that I do not know the numbers associated with that magnitude mentioned, and what effect it will have on the money supply. |

My alt is galente, but because Dek is closer to caldari, I flew her to caldari space and build in a caldari station.
I haven't run a single mission, or adjusted my standing for either caldari or the NPC corp that owns the station I'm working out of, and I still build cheaper than this guy. |

Unlike highsec, you can drop bubbles and launch bombs on nullsec outposts. And you can drop dreads on POS and reinforce them relatively quickly. That will eat up your fuel and stront and stop any production going on till you rep the tower. |
