Megacorps and regional alliances appear to be gobbling up large pieces of valuable territory and claiming it as their own. This leaves freelancing individuals and independent small corps out in the cold so to speak.
What it all boils down to is that Eve is slowly becoming a universe run by megacorps and alliances and not by the community as a whole.
I could be wrong but it surely is starting to look that way to me. Feel free to agree or disagree, but please give me a good reason why.
Is this what we want? I for one do not want this to happen, but I believe that it is inevitable.

Lol.....SavX, man you really hit it on the head man! This is exact response I was hoping to get. Maybe all the freelancers and small corps should form a coalition to make all of the Eve universe free and accessible for everyone!

Ah yes Riddari your right....but I am only one man. However, I am beginning to formulate a plan and this discussion is the first step. Let all the free minded people of Eve come together and find a solution to this problem.
P.S. - SavX, I'll be looking you up in game to discuss this further. Maybe we could get this thing started.

And Ulstan why not!? I refuse that idea and challenge that you tell me why. With enough time and effort I tell you I can accomplish what a hundred men could do.
I'm not saying I could do it in the same time span however. That's the catch.
Point is, if it's up to the megacorps and alliances no single man or small corp will ever achieve what they can because that means more competition for them.
Nooo, they don't want more competition because most megacorps and alliances want all the valuable asteroid fields, trade runs to themselves.
Their not interested in sharing, all they want is to dominate and oppress freelancers and small corps.
I really have no problem with corporations and alliances who make no territorial claims.
What I do have a problem with is someone telling me that a region of space is theirs and I can't mine there.
It is my belief that all of the Eve universe should be free and accessible to all and not just a select few who happen to belong to a megacorp or an alliance. This is my dream and I believe the dream of every free minded man and woman

Die Harpie, I believe the matter is far more complicated than that. I didn't even mention blockading tactics that some well known corporations use.
What if I just want to travel through a region of space? Am I expected to pay a toll just because I'm passing through? I think not.
I think most people know what I'm refering to when it comes to the aggressive nature of the megacorps and alliances that use these kind of tatics. Need I say more?

Lot's of great posts with good points on both sides. Thanks alot guys.
By the way, let me remind everyone that this post is in good nature and I am only playing the game as I see it. I'm not complaining about how the game is designed nor do I believe that others have an unfair advantage.
As someone said earlier there appears to be two developing cultures in the Eve. Those that want Eve to be a free universe for all to enjoy and those that want to lay claim to areas of space and restrict passage or access to it.
I believe both sides have many valid points and reasons for what they believe in. My arguement does not lie with who is right or who is wrong.
The point I'm making is about a belief or an idea based on the dream of making the Eve universe free and accessible for everyone.
Sure this won't be easy and alot of people may not like this idea, but nobody said that freedom or democracy would be easy to attain.
There will always be those against these ideas of freedom and democracy, but I for one will fight against this tyranny.
Will you fight for your freedom as well or will you allow these oppressive dictators to take it away from you and turn you into a slave
