was skeptical at first but this is actually an awesome idea!!!
as ppl have mentioned some details will need to be put in place by ccp to make sure its not abused but its really really cool - i esp like the idea of trading teh mining rights and also being able to contract out the suspect flag thing to another corp.
If this only applied to belts in high sec it would push more ppl into low sec at the same time of making high sec mining ALOT more interesting and fun.
A corp could only hold a few charters at a time and only contract a single other corp (not alliance) per charter (but let corps have as many contracts as they like) for the defense rights, not only would it vastly improve mining but the merc industry too. Youd get high sec pvp corps that could operate as security contractors, not only supplying support in the event of war dec or gankers but also defense of mining rights!.
I love this to bits, OP should get a medal

+1 to the idea as a whole.
Problem: BIG ALLIANCES TAKING ALL THE SITES
Solution: MAKE THE SYSTEM ACIVITY-DRIVEN
The solution to all mass-griefing problems are participation-based claims. Instead of buying/selling charters the system could AWARD CHARTERS based on who's actively MINING a belt (NOT SITTING OR SHOOTING STRUCTURES).
SITUATION: A fleet starts mining the belt with combat support, making the belt contested but giving the entire fleet a suspect flag. The corporation who currently owns the belt is notified their belt is being contested. They have the option to fight for the belt or let it go.
PROS: Since the switching of ownership is based on m3 mined, MINERS HAVE TO BE PRESENT FOR MINING CONTENT so it's not solely PVP (shooting at structures or sitting cloaked in a proteus) driven for being contested
Benefits of ownership: Better ores, and those MINING SHIPS who own the belt do not get flagged. ALL COMBAT SHIPS GET A FLAG ALL THE TIME so as to prevent selective engagement abuse by PVP owners, but that's definitely a point that could be debated.
Problem: Activity-Driven system would make these sites worthless to exploration guys
Solution: First person to warp to the site gets the ownership awarded immediately. Ownership being transferable.
The thing I like most about this idea is the overall idea of MINIATURE-SOV FOR HIGH-SEC ALLIANCES. This would allow wannabe 0.0 alliances to be able to test the waters as far as contested content mechanics go. I definitely thing min-sov highsec systems should be introduced. |

I like this idea, its sort of like how i imagine prospecting on belts on mine but it might be more balanced idea and less likly to be abused then mine i think. Tho i was going for a slower yet passive way of mining i could see this shaping up.
Here is my post if you wanna compare.

Very cool idea but like others have mentioned, one person going and taking all the charters then only allowing them to mine. Charters should get more expensive the more you own, this would be an exponential rise in cost that would allow you to own a few cheaply but would get very expensive if you tried to hold an entire system (or everything in 2-5 systems). |
