@Psychotic Monk, what are your thoughts on the future for one man corps? I'm one of those people who leverage's their faction standings by selling Corps with POS rights. I know many don't like this particular mechanic, I'm neither here nor there on it, I use it because I can.

As much as I dislike the "greifing first" approach of Skunkworks' idealogy (especially during the Sansha incursion mom takedowns over a year ago), I like PM's platform and he raises some good points.
And no, he does not have my pod scrambled as I write this.

My gut feeling is that DUST is going to flop. If that's the case I'd like to see the damage mitigated. I'm fine with them being able to effect us in reasonably large ways as long as we can also effect them in reasonably large ways. I think with the state the beta is in it's impossible to say yet how that'll shake out. Psychotic Monk for CSM. Belligerent Undesirables Blog. |

As a past Skunkworks member I stand by Monks campaing in saying that Skunkworks and Monk at their head knew how to make the game fun! even when game mechanics and ever risk adverse player base started a choke hold on our play style. And for anyone who thinks hes just a Troll, I can say we learned WAY more about the core mechanics of this game trough trying to break them than most people ever thought of, so He knows very well ways to tell CCP how to fix them.
Oh Psychotic Monk what are your thoughts on making piracy more like being a pirate, such as introducign ways of stealing ships cargo holds or even ships trough some sort of boarding or hacking modual? (of course would be hard to use, such as makign the target ship go under 50ms for like 120 seconds or more) |

I don't see any reason your business model should be made obsolete. I *do* want to see the end of one man corps, but not because it's mechanically impossible, but because it's incentivized. So trying to operate as a one man corp should be a bad idea and/or a waste of money, rather than literally impossible.
Gaz: Thanks for your support. I think a hijacking/theft mod would be neat, and off the top of my head I don't see any major problems with it, but I think we have some bigger fish to fry at the moment, what with sov, inactivity in null/low and wardecs being broken, as well as with ship rebalancing and the changes to armor tanking both being ongoing processes.

Well yeah I know my question was kinda silly and trivial, but I already know your stance on most other areas, and while I voted for you knowing low sec lvl piracy and greifing identity your knowledge base I would still like to hear your thoughts on ways to improve piracy or the -10 life style. Like high sec tankers and greifers we are kinda looked down on because we usualy instigated fights and kill 'inocent peeples' and we don't need anything fun because we are suposed to make our own fun, at being evil. While I agree just being an evil pirate is fun, I feel like it is less of a profession and more of a punishment for being a free spirit. Being -10 has some major draw backs and most pirates don't make a ton of isk. So I think there needs to be some more insentives for being a pirate, such as getting pirate faction LP for player kills like FW, and maybe other perks and disadvanages. This would also help make room for anti pirating being a actual profession, which could be a step up from a high sec bounty hunter.
Anyway just figured is like to hear your 2isk
Also your very welcome I would fly with you again anyday, and am hoping to see you on the CSM. Been watching your interviews and campaign and your doing a great job. |

My questions are pretty much aligned to the poster above in which I am curious with your stance on Piracy with those of us with negative 10 status and content for low sec in general. We all know the current phrase of "low sec is dead" mainly due to nerfed content for PVE rewards as well as an exponentially greater amount of isk to be made in Null Sec.
Thus, the potential for true content is crippled because of a lack of player interest. Would you be open to bringing forward ideas to CCP about making content exclusive to low sec to try and bring people back into these systems? And what about Piracy as a starting profession? Or making newer players able to be in a Pirate NPC corp?
There is so much untapped potential to bring new and fresh ideas to a region that has long been the red headed step child of CCP. Regardless you have my vote and hope everyone whom is considered part of the "dark side" of the game's content are represented equally. |

I have been told that there's no non-FW lowsec candidate, and being unrepresented is absolutely ****. So yes, I will be doing what I can to help make sure you guys are represented.
I will note, however, that I'm not a lowsec guy. I don't have that experience. In fact, it's the only area of space I've never lived in. To that end, I'm putting together a repurposed safari character and I'm hoping to convince several different lowsec groups to let me hang out with them here and there. My intent in doing so is that I don't want to be lost when lowsec subjects come up. I don't expect to become an expert that way, but I figure any amount of informed support is better than none.

I mostly mean indy stuff, yes. Kane, you and I both operate in a sort of post-modern way as far as corps are concerned. We own several, we use them for several things, and we're only in them when it's of use to us to be. But we're by far in the minority. If I owned a magic wand the ability for dudes like you, me or Gecko to operate as we do currently would never dissapear, but we would gain benefit from being in a corp on a more permanent basis that would make it tempting for us. This would cover such things as allowing us more flexibility and more benefits from membership.
Yes, I was thinking mainly of indy corps when I wrote that, but if the organizational structures in eve were such that you could gain benefit from membership while still operating as you prefer to, wouldn't that be better? The chat channel and community we're both in at the moment, for instance, if it had some sort of in game support, such as hangers where I could stash some safari destroyers or logi anyone could use while still not being tied down with a corp name and the inability to dec who we liked or whatnot...
Well, I'm writing a bit right now about better ways to think about and organize player organizations, so the previous paragraph may be a bit off the deep end for the purposes of this thread.
tl;dr I was mostly but not exclusively meaning traditional style corporations, yes. Psychotic Monk for CSM. Belligerent Undesirables Blog. |

How about mechanically stopping mining by players in npc corps? Lore-wise, we could say that you can only mine if you're in a player corporation that has purchased a mining permit from concord or the empire whose space you're mining in.
Then throw in some penalties for dec shedding, and having wars follow players for a limited time, and you'll have solved a large part of the problem of people hiding in npc corps, and the problem of forming and dropping corps to avoid wars.

High-Sec isn't really a starting area. Any part of space can be a starting area. However, it is one of the biggest sources of wealth for players, and thus it is also a very logical place to conduct war.
If you were going to go down that route, you have the permits. With Quotas.
Probably with Taxes if you go over quota. 'Forcing' people is rarely good. So let them continue mining in their NPC corp. It'll just not be good.
And as you buy the bigger and bigger quotas, the price per m3 drops.
That just incentivized larger PC mining corporations. Steve Ronuken for CSM 8 Handy tools and SDE conversions Twitter: @fuzzysteve on Twitter |

I feel for your plight. Being unrepresented seriously sucks.
Keep in mind that there's a fair few reasons people spend a lot of time in lowsec that play very differently:
- Gatecamp piracy on major trade routes (Rancer, etc) - Hunting-style piracy in quieter systems that get some carebears in them (Decon, Basgerin, etc, hunting belts/anomolies for people to kill) - Probing down sites and running them (or just running anomolies) - Probing down sites and killing the people that are running them - Combat probing down mission runners, deadspace escalations etc - Running anomolies/exploration sites as a way to bait people into scanning you down - FW as CCP intended - FW kiting - FW piracy - Anti-piracy operations
Lowsec also plays VERY differently on a high sec status character (where everyone assumes you are a bear and attack you) to a low sec status character (where you get less action as people respect or fear you).
It will take some time to get a real sense of the area.

Put forward a removal of NPC corps for players over 30 days and also prevent players from dodging war decs. I'm sure you are going to be on CSM and when there please don't pander to the PVE pussys. A reversal of the mining barge buff would be great and pointing out to CCP how dumbed down this game has gotten would be a nice start!

Not trying to thread hijack (well, not much.) There's always me. Highsec PvP needs work, and that work isn't 'Stop it' or 'Make it easier'. It's a more complex issue than that, needing balance to give people targets.

Follow as in: Player drops corp/changes to a new PC corp: Player is still a WT
or: Player joins a differnent PC corp: Second corp becomes a WT

What if leaving a corp at war granted your opponents a kill right against you for the remaining duration of the war? Single-shot rather than ongoing, but that counterbalances the fact that you'd be unable to attack them first outside of a limited engagement. Proud independent player.
