Players don't have to go to nullsec. But the players that do go to null and spend their ISK to carve out a piece of it, and have to defend it, and have to deal with the idiotic politics involved should have an advantage. The stations that they create and defend should be THE best place for industry. Then POSes. And then at the very bottom, the empire NPC maintained stations. Simply put, player created content should be the best. Not NPC space. HS should indeed be nerfed into the ground. You don't have to leave HS, but you just gotta accept that the rewards are gonna be crap. Which is the price paid for relative safety. At least that's how it would all work in my theoretical view of the game.
And I say that as somebody who has spent the last few years in hi-sec. It shouldn't be easy-mode paradise, it should be a low-wage ghetto.

Trash space or streets lined with ISK space? If it were up to me (which it is not), I'd say a NPC null station would be about the level of a low-sec POS. Kinda middle of the road productivity. It's more risky getting materials to and from the station, but you never run the risk of losing everything in the station itself. And a POS in NPC null would be the same as a POS in any other part of null (except that you can't protect it with a cyno jammer). So fairly decent. At least in my imaginary view of EvE.

Ask pros like -A-, TEST and RDN. about how riskless their blue donut made them Errr... You seem to be contradicting yourself there. What are you trying to say?

Domanique Altares wrote: You're not learning anything about how to play EVE by mining in high sec. I'm quite certain you mastered the activity of mining by the time you were done with the requisite tutorial mission, and therefore need no more study in the matter. And you'd be quite wrong. There is actually quite a bit more to mining, at least doing it profitably and well. I'm not even a miner and I know that. And I'll agree it's quite possibly the single most boring activity in the entire game. But unfortunately it is necessary. Somebody has gotta pull the ore, so the ships can be built, and then they can be blown up. Just the way the game works.

It's kind of apparent that he was using sarcasm to make his point, and that he actually does agree with everything that you pointed out. |

I would love to fight you guys, you just have to realize we are not going to undock into a fleet that will 100% blob the hell out of us (not that i have ever seen a non pvp entity do this to us) Well in their defense it's not really possible to fight after ganks. Gankers pick up a criminal flag, so they can't undock in a ship without it getting Concorded. So there is no way for the miner and his corp to immediately respond. Once the timer ends, they could conceivably trigger the kill right and attack. But in my experience, I haven't seen many gankers stick around in system after a gank. Gankers hit, the scout loots, gankers vanish, and all that is left is the sobbing tears of the miner (once they get back to keyboard). Seriously, what are the victims gonna do to fight? Wardec the gankers? Realistically that's not gonna happen.
Even the kill rights thing later on isn't really gonna work. It's not like the gankers are gonna be cruising around in hi-sec in freighters or faction BSs. In hi-sec they are gonna be in Catalysts and Thrashers (and who cares if one of those die). Outside of hi-sec the kill rights don't matter and it's just a normal brawl. |

ummm... Why would anybody recycle a ganking alt now days? You just use your lowsec main to do it when bored. Tags to fix sec status if necessary. And then spend the remainder of your time in lowsec shooting idiots with your space bros, and hope some poor moron comes to try and cash in the Kill Rights. "Onoez! Please don't bring the PvP to me on a silver platter. Whatever shall I do?!" |

(w/e those asteriks mean) Was he bankrupting his corp's SRP program with those frig losses? Was he encouraging the ebil grieferz to keep paying the wardec costs so they could keep on shooting the same 3 noobs in frigs (and then give them ISK and advice)? Did he ruin the corp's highly important K/D ratio? Please edumacate us on what his horrid folly was....
