The answer to that one is simple. Turn null into high sec. But, I don't think anyone is calling for that. Eve is a sandbox. Why can't a null alliance create a part of null-sec that has most of the benefits of high-sec?

Sorry, but your simply showing your lack of 0.0 experience. PvP'ers hate miners and industrialists. They complain about them endlessly.
Thinking you are going to get a bunch of pvp'ers to sit around for hours while miners make money is......Halarious..

So, what is it that null industrialists want? More slots in null outposts? Higher install and run costs in high sec stations? More, and larger veld rocks in null to end that as a choke point to null manufacturing? Rocks in null produce more minerals than high sec rocks? Make POS refining/reprocessing able to get 100%? Make high sec station refine impossible to get above, say, 75%? LP and faction standing for running anoms?
As a high sec carebear miner/industrialist, I'm 100% emphatically for all of those changes. |

0.0 players don't hate industrialists. They are just completely worthless in nullsec so they don't get recruited or defended or cared about.
Perhaps if nullsec industry wasn't so horrible save for a few edge cases, they would be more well liked and defended. |

Because: 1) they are in null because they want to shoot stuff, not make a trade hub. 2) Even if they wanted to make a trade hub, others would just show up to kill everyone else coming there to trade.

This is the problem, how do you communicate with crazy people who only think in terms of black and white. Where did i say null has "happy care-bear heaven".
Some Industry and mining and such does happen in null, some alliances have indy sections, some don't.

The same way the others claim to know that by adding slots in low, somehow industrialists will flock to null.
Not a fair stance in the face of both sides playing the same game; to somehow "know" how to fix the underlying issues. |

James Amril-Kesh wrote:EVE is a sandbox, clearly that means we can bypass game mechanics entirely. And that's the problem. EVE needs more sand. The current high-sec NPC based game mechanics trump the player driven "emergent gameplay" mechanics in null.
So what needs to change? Well as I see it, high sec has one (HUGE!) thing going for it: security (i.e. 23x7 NPC provided security) Security allows high-sec to tap its abundant resources (mining, missioning, industry, logistics, etc..) What is security good for? It allows high-sec dwellers to tap into high-sec's abundant, lower-quality resources and make profit. People feel safe enough to do business in high-sec.
In comparison, null has abundant resources, higher quality resources, jumpship/bridge logistics, and resources that are unavailable in high-sec. So what's the problem with null? Not enough industry slots? Not enough security? Or something else?
Industry slots appear to be a problem, but industry slots require raw materials. So fixing industry slots isn't going to fix null-sec industry. As for security, null has sov and open PvP to provide security to the point that people can be "null-bears" in null-sec, yet null cannot attract enough miners and industrialists to work locally. Carebears do not feel safe in null.
So why don't carebears feel that null is safe enough to live/work in?
I'm going to go on a limb and say that it's attitude. Null-sec appears to be populated by African Warlords[1] and bandits, a situation which doesn't tend to attract big business. The Roman Empire didn't become the Roman Empire solely because of the l33t PvPing of its warrior caste. It became great because there was a huge "middle class" (plebes, slaves) and trade network supporting the empire and its legions. You can have the best PvPers in the game/world, but they don't amount to a hill of beans if you don't have the workforce to develop and maintain the industry (food, weapons, ships, gold, etc.) to keep the army marching.
Null has warriors but not enough plebes. High-sec has plebes *and* warriors (i.e. NPC security).
Thus, the null-sec workforce/plebeians/middle class is the high-sec carebear. Unless null (aka the CSM and CCP) find a way to attract carebears (you know, miners, mission runners, industrialists, haulers, etc.) into null, then null will always be reliant upon high-sec, and no amount of whining about "how high-sec carebear pods are made of gold" is going to change that.
tl;dr - Null leadership needs to encourage carebears to live, work, and thrive in their piece of null-sec. They need to change (or lose) the "null is PvP incarnate; carebears need not apply" perception/attitude. Seriously, if Erik the Red can get away with calling Greenland Greenland, then you can claim to be a nullbear paradise filled with huge tracts of rich asteroids and bountiful rat bounties and attract a carebear workforce to build up your industrial base.
[1] No offense to any African Warlord players. I know most of you are great people, but a few bad apples have spoiled your image.
