You ever actually just go out to nullsec and do your own thing?
I do it all the time and its dead 95% of the time. Plexes, anoms, belt ratting, you name it.
No need to join the blob if you have a brain and backbone.
Now taking your own moon is another thing... Not today spaghetti. |

I mean as long as it is dying it is not already dead. If there is no "X is dying thread" on the first two pages of the forum it means only the crazy loyalist basement kids are left and the game is actually dead.
I bet STO has no "STO is dying" threads. STO isn't dying, it's worse that that .... |

The problem is you're treating it like a single player game. In EVE the political game is a part of it. You need to forge your own alliances, get your own things done. Take the example of the Guiding Hand Social Club and the work they did to take down Ubiqua Seraph. It's a good read of what you can achieve in EVE if you're willing to invest the meta game and time to get it done.
You can complain that you're unable to own a number of moons, own a large sector of space and command a fleet of Titans. OR you can do what those alliances do; forge the political links. Fight for the space. Gain control of it. Play the game both in and outside of the client.
Basically - the game is what you make of it. EVE Ambulation and Avatars as a separate game - see here |

if someone wants to live in null its extremely easy and it requires no money
your problem is you want security by riding on the coat tails of a major alliance so you can melt rocks in peace and you get just what someone like you deserves
there are hundreds of unoccupied null systems in eve, but they are not going to come with a blob fleet to protect you from people who want your pretty killmail on their boards.

Much like the Gallenta "winning" the faction war against the Caladari, that to did not last. This will take a bit longer for the collaspe. People will get bored ratting and plexing. Capital ship pilots will let subscriptions lapse, people will log in less and less as they get bored just wandering around looking for fights. Less people will be on to defend things. Corps in the OTEC cartel will begin to start asking for a greater share cause they are doing more work, bonds will break, old rivalries will heat up and cracks will appear. Soon the whole house of cards will collapse and it will be all out war the likes of which have not been seen. My guess is 6 months from now.
Right now war chests are secretly being filled and assests put in stratagic locations. This all of course my uneducated guess and rumor mongering.
The process will start over and in a year or so we will be having this same discussion over again. |

I don't know. I'm starting to believe that the real EvE that matters is in hi-sec, low-sec, and worm hole space.
Also I saw 58,000 players on this weekend. Can't really be dying. "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. |

Got to love uninformed trolls. You know this situation has occured before with one big alliance holding most of space...you know what happen? It failed. Ultimately the powerblocks will fracture and things will move again. Think of it as a time of stability to make some serious cash.
If you want your own space, fight for it. |

EVE died 10 minutes after beta launched then rose in a shambled mockery of life. Welcome to the Zombie MMO 
In all seriousness, though, it's not impossible to live in nullsec without kowtowing to Chad from Accounting, just be prepared to live like wanted fugitives (best way to play EVE imo). |

Drama, much?
Over-reactions aside, I daresay a large bulk of high sec (and low sec'ers, too) really don't give a whit about these "controlling" factions. Let's be brutally honest here: high sec'ers tend to stay in high and occassionally low, with no need or desire beyond simple curiosity to head to null, either sov-held or NPC null. Nullies (and their alts), on the other hand, seem to regularly go to high for various reasons, not the least of which are (according to recent excellent threads) industry and griefing high sec'ers.
Don't you think that says something more than the drama laid out by the OP?
Of the "controlling" alliances you note above, I know of Solar, and that's about it. I couldn't tell you who's in HBC, CDC, N3, KFC, ADHD, or WTFP0WN without looking them up. I know they have zero impact on my game overall, and I daresay they have very little impact on others that have chosen to play their own game. "Blow it all on Quafe and strippers." -á --- Sorlac |

EvE's far from dieing, in fact our game is doing rather well, Dust is doing good. As for the Alliances you mention, Null has changed hands many times in the past. No such thing as an invincible Alliance/ Colition and those that thing they are are sadly mistaked as history has shown. Theres a storm coming to null that god nor CCP can stop, its been brewing for a year, 6 months from now remember what i said  -áVote for Malcanis for CSM8 |

Nullsec got conquered by half a dozen large alliances.
The dream of nullsec owned by a thousand tiny corporations that all hate each other didn't happen, and some people think this is a problem that CCP should some how fix. |

We had the same thing back in 2006. Also in order to have a blue doughnut you would require 0.0 to not be shooting at eachother. |

Null changes are coming, sooner or later. And when they do war happens. And even if changes aren't coming, peace doesn't last forever. Sooner or later something will happen to upset the balance of power.
Until then those who play this game for fun, instead of paying to have the second job that is running a null alliance, will stay the **** out of null and let the power hungry have their... 'fun'. I'll be ready with the popcorn when **** hits the fan. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQMIxAKqsUA |
