You do realize that the issue comes from the "A SHIP/POD! KILL! KILL! KILL!" mentality of most low-sec dwellers, right?
Let's say a large group of players locked down a hi-sec system by suicide-ganking anyone entering it. Would you ask CCP to move all hi-sec agents in this particular system? Or to buff the rewards of missions in this system? The problem is player-side, not game mechanics-side.
Tara Read wrote:All i desire is more content for all. That isn't too much to ask is it?
I don't think forcing Hi-sec mission runners to leave the game or to run L3s (because, let's face it, they wouldn't move to lowsec) is the right way to create "more content for all". |

I use a no skill alt as a scout in lowsec. When it gets podded, I send the killer a smiley face. My suffering/Isk loss is fairly low in this situation.
If a week old player had a 50% of receiving a 1M ISK, with no chnace of ISK loss on his part...what is the problem? |

overview only shows you ships on your grid. How it will help with local? |

it's not alien. but you don't like this concept already. because carebears already do "fend to yourself": they have chosen high-sec

fend for yourself
GÇö phrasal verb with fend
/fend/ verb

anyone or anything in this context, be it CONCORD or your own personal guard of faction police as that guy was proposing.. |

I endorse this product and or service. It benefits my business of deadspace trading. I trade at least 40-50 items daily with the lowest of profits typically being 20 mil per each some as high as 300-400 mil. This is where the real money is go scrap for your pennies in the mind numbingness of missions. The more deadspace dies the more it comes back to me.
Oh how I love the feeling of receiving a 600 mil module for 300 mil on buy order. Then subsequently looking up the seller and seeing that he just ganked some missioner. And as an EVE online space republican I'm very against the accumulation of wealth by other individuals other than those in my posse.
So with that I say send the missions to low-sec I will probably kill a few myself. If they want to stay in high sec and scrap even less pennies that's their own problem. |

thanks but i deduced this word from context.

yes i see. however Eve Online is MMO and you can't do well here if only fend for yourself. The most successful entities in the game are alliances and corporations. The game is designed around player groups.
So you would better say: depending on NPC (which is game mechanics). Then i agree.
Note:
- gate camps - totally organized around game mechanics
- station games - totally organized around game mechanics
- many other pvp strategies organized around game mechanics too |

So this intervention force would swoop down to save you upon any act of aggression?  .. and you want this pet NPC patrol to become stronger the more dedicated a carebear you have been in past ages? I am sure newbies everywhere will applaud the idea of having even less of a fighting chance. TBH the whole idea sucks, you are basically advocating bringing CONCORD to low sec. I suppose the concept of having to fend for yourself is just too alien to consider...
Case in point.
And in the usual fashion, you didn't read the whole thing. Chances are you also do this to RL news and have aided tyranny when you vote too. We talk about you "only partially paying attention" masses and the damage you do, you know that?
But thanks for highlighting and proving my final point.

What do you presume to know about my reading habits? I did read the whole thing and I reached the conclusion you quote.
Nice how you're almost pulling a Godwin there.
The original idea you elaborated upon was garbage and you actually managed to make it worse. |

Increase the income spread between high sec and low sec agents, so that high sec provides considerably less income and low-sec slightly more than now. That way, Massive amounts of content won't be stripped from high sec, while the high-sec/low-sec income spread is increased to where many people feel it should be.
(sarcasm)
how about dropping the npc's bounties again? that way it affects everyone even the ratters in 0.0 and forcing a set price on moon minerals so the market wont go over that, i'd say -30% of current jita market pricing. also only a 5% profit margin on PI stuff.
(/sarcasm)
im sure a lot of you wouldn't be happy with this propose sarcastic change either since it would cut into your wallets as well. |

People that want to find you and kill you always have the initial advantage over someone just trying to get things done, regardless if it's running missions, or just flying from A to B. The only way to counter that is to always travel in fleets, be on voice comms, have PvP capable ships, scout ahead, run missions and mine with friends etc etc, and this is basically what EVE Uni has as it's WSOP, and it's how things should be.
This is all good and fine in principle, as EVE is for group oriented PvP.
In practice though, if you turn the act of going to the shops to buy milk into a logistic operation that needs 4 people EVERY SINGLE TIME, you turn EVE into a second job rather then a game for a large section of people.
Is EVE meant to be like that? Maybe it is, maybe the carebears should go play Hello Kitty Online. EVE is harsh, and should punish you every time you blink for too long, but by the gods, you have to draw a line somewhere.
Right now I just roam Hisec and see what CCP has done with the universe, but for all I care CCP can just punch a hole in space where Hisec is and force everyone to pick sides and live in null sec somewhere. I'm sure I'd adapt, and if that failed, I'd just Plex ships and just go on random roams in cheap stuff to get exploded when I'm online, but the fact still remain that if you keep taking away content to force players to move, rather then create more interesting content elsewhere that attracts them there, you basically ... well, peeve them off for no good reason.
The whole problem with missions now is how static they are. You can look up triggers, spawns, distances, etc, and the word "farming" enters the equation, and I think the "farming" part is what you're really complaining about, so I'd rather have missions turn into a group activity instead, and missions scripts made way less predictable, personally.
I suddenly woke up thinking I had a nightmare, then remembered I can't even fly Amarr Battleships.
