It's like you didn't read the thread at all! Good job!

Mining in cap ships in HS gives the users an unfair advantage, they can't be ganked or bumped. They should all be removed or other players should be allowed to have them. Alternatively ganking and bumping should be review. I neither mine or can fly capital ships, but fair is fair. The thick plottens... CCP, When can my crane get its black paint job back?? |

Capitals belong in 0.0, if they want caps in highsec then lets get bubbles and bombs there too |

personally don't really see why we couldn't have cynos and capitals in high sec, not supers just regular carriers and dreads, with the following proviso
It could be linked to you sec status with the empire you are in for both lighting a cyno and for jumping such as
1.0 sec - +10 standing with system empire 0.9 sec - +9 standing with system empire 0.8 sec - +8 standing with system empire 0.7 sec - +7 standing with system empire 0.6 sec - +6 standing with system empire 0.5 sec - +5 standing with system empire
that would make it very hard to jump across high sec but would allow pilot who have high enough standings with the relative empire faction to have a carrier or dread in high sec. why not you already proved loyal to the empire faction.
The building of capitals stays as it is, in low / null sec. personally I think this would be great for role playing, additionally link the race of capital to the system as well so only revs and archons could be in amarr high sec for example |

I'd jump at the chance to get one in highsec... They are not supposed to provide any game play in high sec. We deemed this included possibly profiting from one by selling it. They are just for show, you can not profit or otherwise benefit from them. That is all.

I'd understand if someone was selling a Chimera for 10 Billion being an advantage. But what if someone wanted to sell one for 10-15 Mil cheaper then market price? Nothing would be broken nor any advantage would be given. Might I actually get a reply?

Could you pretty please explain why it's not allowed to trade / buy those high sec capitals?
Some players have oceans of ISK and would love to collect one of those ships. I don't see anything exploitive into selling an hi sec capital to somebody else.

Owning a highsec capital is the EvE equivalent of dating a girl with small hands. "Do not touch anything unnecessarily. Beware of pretty girls in dance halls and parks who may be spies, as well as bicycles, revolvers, uniforms, arms, dead horses, and men lying on roads -- they are not there accidentally." -Soviet infantry manual, issued in the 1930 |

GM Spiral wrote:Vol Arm'OOO wrote:So since a player with a HS capital can never acquire an aggression flag with a cap and they cannot undock one during a war, the rest of us are denied the opportunity of destroying their HS capital ship. In eve destroying rare ships is an achievement - for confirmation just look at the destruction of the rev by "bl." Now we have a class of ships that cant be destroyed because of the "rules." Seems very short sighted, anti-sandbox and very un-eve like to me.
That is a valid point to an extent. That they are permitted to remain in high security space at all given the current game mechanics of capitals ships in EVE, they are already an anomaly. But historical reasons (see the events in 2008 quoted on the Evelopedia site) set the ball rolling in this direction. Ideas to revisit the option of moving them to low sec have been considered since them, but left alone for those same reasons. These ships are showpieces and are simply not intended to take part in high sec game play in any way, and the current rules are aimed at keeping it that way. But the idea of simply abolishing the rules and letting what may come has been entertained, as have ideas of replacing them with de-militarised versions, or simply relocating them and have this episode closed. A viable solution that satisfies all (or most) parties simply has not been found and these ships are currently causing so little trouble as to negligible. But rest assured, there will be no drastic changes to the current state of affairs without ample prior discussion with the community. The Veldnought scare of 2008 ( as GM Grimmi put it) is still remembered.
Owners of these ships in HS mine in them, that is gameplay ??? they cannot be ganked or bumped away from the belts, that is unfair gameplay.. they can be used by owners to throw tantrums, go GCC and get popped, only to be replaced.. back in HS.. that is gameplay.. if I decide I am not happy with this unfair gameplay and undock my vindi in jita and smartbomb everyone.. will it be replaced like the carrier was ??? I will be most certainly be providing content for the community.... I would also like a "show piece" carrier in hs to mine with..

Or do I have to flag my own post? GMs usually don't read forums unless they are alerted to a particular thread. Some devs do, although rarely. Your best bet is to petition (and link this thread in the petition). Reporting your own post will only bring it to attention of forum mods, who can't do anything about game policies. |

First off your intended use would have the Archon advantageous by not being suicide gankable and by having high dps potential without ammo cost.
The second bit can be possibly done in a navy geddon using pulses and ogres with all damage mods, but said gedfon is then prone for suicide ganks. Archon can go AFK while at it and just rely on buffer to be almost un gankable. This afk ability is an advantage.
That all said, I think highsec caps should have full freedom to do whatever they please apart from station games and other such uncounterable advantages. Tbh I would even give those uncounterable advantages to them to make them interesting.
