Pure Blind. Once you get past the chokepoints it's imho the friendliest 0.0 region. Lots of small alliances living in peace.
Catch. Same thing but no npc stations here.

And while there, you're free to use the ISS outposts in both regions
To be fair, some of the more liberal Alliances are pretty tolerant of Neutral corporations in their space. If in doubt, why not open a dialogue with the Alliance which claims the space you are thinking of moving into? You may be pleasantly suprised.

Its been proven over the years if an alliance wants to keep its space safe for its own members then letting in neutrals doesnt really work. What does work however is letting in corporations that will contribute something to the claiming alliance. If you plan on doing some mining and refining in their stations the its possible. However if you just want to NPC hunt and live there then theres few 0.0 alliances that will allow that.

Sure, the NBSI alliances may have less casual pirating, but the economic benefits of allowing neutrals into your space outweight the risks in my opinion. But hey, thats just my opinion - everyone can run their space as they wish :)

There are occasional pirate infestations (Hooligans of War, Sponatious Defenestration, Cruel Intentions) but most of the time the locals keep it safe - if you are friendly too :) Contact me ingame to talk more. -- All lies! |

seconded fred0; other than EC-P8R, I'm finding Pure Blind a very comfortable border region to be living in.
A better question might be "Which neutral-friendly 0.0 region has the most negative "real security" system ratings?" ... because PB's rocks and NPCs really aren't that stunning.

Originally by: Galavet Syndicate, but Its like Pirate playground.
The problem with Syndicate is that large portions have been claimed by Alliances ( That is claimed in word only - they are still NPC systems ) and they will protect their turf meaning that if they have no relations with you they will shoot you down. I don't consider this piracy as the objective is not to gain riches or grief players but to defend themselves from hostiles. Members of Newb corps will not welcomed as folks have a tendedncy to use alts in Newb Corps for recon purposes. Given that veteran Merc/Pirate corps often like to come down for a visit and generally raise hell this situation is not likely to change in the near future.
All this being said, if you have a corp looking to makes its own in Syndicate and you do try for a diplomatic route you will most likely be succesful in securing your self a place in Syndicate and have people willing to help you in times of need. Of course there are still systems that are nasty pirate hotspots so Syndicate will never be truly safe.

Miners and traders are welcome to visit our stations in Catch at V2-VC2 and 5N-2EY. Huzzah runs anti-piracy patrols throughout western Catch and also western Providence (alongside CVA).
Both areas are "open" space for non-aggressive travellers. -------

Any region with NPC stations is to some extent. Some are more open than others. Syndicate you might find a warmer reception than Venal or Stain for example.

While I was up there, Fountain was a nice place to live in. VC didn't mind me and BoB was off campaigning elsewhere. Just be sure you open dialogue with the alliances that you interact with, or you'll be going to your nearest cloning station.

the problem is, you can't be friends with both VC and BoB / allies.

There are no regions that are open to public and safe to the public at the same time. The simple fact of the matter is that it isn't profitable keeping the places safe for people who're only there to reap the riches. You're looking at 90% of the 0.0 regions claimed, or double-claimed, but alliances, and the last few regions are so full of people who buy into the whole "It's 0.0 and you can shoot anyone you like" concept. Your best bet is to choose a rather stable alliance's region, an alliance with few wars going on, and then move into a system off the beaten track. The roids and NPCs in those systems are often not terribly good, but you're still looking at a significantly increased profit per hour over Empire. Few alliance bother sending patrols to check out blobs on the map, so just don't go on the main routes too much. I'm certain it's possible to find NPC station systems in, for example, Stain or Curse where no one will bother you - and you'll even have proximity to refineries!

Coalition for Free Space failed pretty misserably. Fountain was forced to close off their space to outsiders. Xetic was forced to close their open space program before it even began. The examples are many. Most often it is a case of pirate infestations (CFS space was pretty saturated with pirates towards the end) or a case of the regions becoming a playground for combat.

As mentioned try pure blind.Nice alliances and small corporations there.Get your standings sorted out as soon as you r in the region and most of the time you should be fine.Prates come by now and then but an eye on the local chann will be enough to keep you safe.Or try joining an alliance or corp thats allready located in pure blind.

Pure blind is a good place to go. As long as you respect the locals they respect you. and if your willing to help clean out the undesirables even better. you might get an invite to join one of the local friendly alliance. Touch My Monkey

Simply not true Ithildin. We've undertaken Pure Blind as a pet project to keep as safe as possible and it is something we patrol just for the fun of it and sense of achievement. This has been done based from a backwater pirate nest in pure blind that's now become the whole center of the region.
The primary reason for pure blind blossoming though is IRON and G. Both pretty strong alliances but first and foremost responsible entities not operating under NBSI in Pure Blind. This gives us a unique opportunity to create a flourishing 0.0 community. If you are presented with stability in both Cloud Ring, Fade and Deklein you have an opportunity to transfer that stability over to Pure Blind.
Ofcourse this situation both can and will be broken. But for the last 6 months it's worked pretty well even during BOB invasions to deklein and ASCN trying their hardest to camp entrypoints under NBSI policy.

You could probably be reasonably safe in many parts of catch (the side more in the direction of curse and tenerifis) as long as you keep an eye out and don't mine/npc on the highway routes. Even basing out of the ISS outpost there are very rarely large numbers of people. You wont be making deep 0.0 profit but TBH it's a very under-used region for non-travel purposes and a lot of corps could make significantly better-than-empire income there. ------- "wheat barley kill anything? are you oats of your mind?
