it's only fair.
It's an isk-sink.
1.0 systems could be cheaper, and 0.5 systems more expensive to represent appropriate deployment costs.
Billing could be a base fee, plus modifications for value of ships destroyed in teh process of protecting the innocent, modified by the above divisor.
CONCORD should simply refuse to protect folks that don't pay the bill.
yes?

I pay a district, regional and national tax for those services! That being said, technically some capsuleers do pay concord. Since concord is like the UN as it should be, by paying the 11% npc tax npc corp players are paying by proxy. It is the one man corps and so on that aren't paying for concord - they're a bunch of tax dodging freeloaders who get all the protection of concord without paying into the system at any level where concord is paid from. dang nammit!

The mission rewards, bonuses and LPs of the NPC corporations are cut off at a limit, which depends on the security status. One gets on average more ISKs when running missions for an agent in a 0.5 system than one sitting in a 1.0 system.
So in a sense is it already happening, but not quite in the same way as described by the OP.
Loss is meaningful. Therefore is the loss of meaning likewise meaningful. It is the source of all trolling. |

What about monthly payment for ~500 millions? If you don't pay CONCORD does not protect you. I would go farther! Without this payment CONCORD prevents you from logging into the game!

And of course it should be the attacker that pays. And if his wallet goes negative, he cannot board a ship other than a shuttle until its positive.

Indeed, I think it is time 20 billion (or even more) loot pinatas pay for the trouble they cause in highsec.
A freighter pilot putting more than 20 billion worth in his cargo hold should pay a fine of 10% of the value destroyed for causing riot and disorder and Concord having to be called in order to clean up the mess.
And please do not forget: Concord is not running a protection scheme. Concord is punishing aggressors. It's time those inciting aggression stand up to their faults.

Dear Pilot,
Here is the Invoice for services rendered while attempting to save your vessel. While your vessel was lost well before our arrival on scene, and your pod was subsequently lost also before our arrival, the fact of the matter is that several CONCORD drones were deployed and ammo was used to destroy the offenders vessel. We of course are not allowed to destroy the pod of the offender, which of course would be fair retribution for the acts commited upon your person, so we allowed him to go free.We did however dock him a trivial amount of secuity status. We apologize for the inconvienience.
Invoice for CONCORD police reponse:
Cap booster expenditure for OMGWTF infinite distance warp scramble ; 2,754,430.23 ISK.
Ammo expenditure to destroy offending vessel: 4,589,239.11 ISK.
Drone fuel : 2,987 ISK.
Misc taxes and Fees : 12,788,499.99.
Total amount autowithdrawn from you wallet for services rendered: 20,135,156.33 ISK
Thank you for using CONCORD, and have a wonderful rest of your day.
Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings? |

Or, we could have and encourage players to become members of CONCORD and the DED. They get paid to patrol and respond to any incidents and deliver justice accordingly. To balance this out, the power and response time of NPC CONCORD would be severely nerfed, but still existent to provide ample defense in the higher security hi-sec systems.
If profitable enough and fun enough, there would be plenty of people willing to do the job and would make Hi-sec much more interesting and dynamic.

It has been said that your "Pilots License" covers the cost of ship fueling, maintenance, crew, and other mundane tasks us pilots don't care about. I would assume that your PLEX also makes a profit for CONCORD, allowing them to pay the crews for their ships.
That being said, I wonder why we need to pay our subscriptions lore-wise if we live in null or wormhole?

The NPC corp.
I seem to remember that the dev blob covering the NPC tax talked about Corcord or something as where the fees were going to go. (Eve Fiction)
Maybe it was Stargate operations, its been awhile since that change.
Maybe some bored Pod Pilot can dig that up.

So far they the ran to the house to let 2 houses burn to the ground with them watching over the fee. If you dont pay the fee. you have the option to pay them ON THE SPOT $1000 a hour(who has a $1000 on them after running from your burning house) http://usnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2011/12/07/9272989-firefighters-let-home-burn-over-75-fee-again?lite

If Concord was to be paid an extra tax, they would not provide more protection.
They would just squander it on Quafe and Exotic Dancers.

Yet we need insurance for the medical services... or we end up paying thousands for an ambulance ride....

What do you think the NPC Corp tax is for?

all should tremble, for the dev-blob cometh! I know it was a typo, but this is the best Idea in a long time. Dev's take a day and log in and blob us all to death *grin*

Let's make it so that you can spend ISK to let CONCORD look the other way if you shoot certain groups of people.
Never catch on.

That being said, technically some capsuleers do pay concord. Since concord is like the UN as it should be, by paying the 11% npc tax npc corp players are paying by proxy. It is the one man corps and so on that aren't paying for concord - they're a bunch of tax dodging freeloaders who get all the protection of concord without paying into the system at any level where concord is paid from. dang nammit! edit: added a comma
So, if I want CONCORD support I should go back to the NPC corp? Seems like the exact opposite of what most people want... that being the ability to bribe CONCORD to not support player corps so they can be shot.
