With the recent expansion it is now possible to kill Interbus Customs Offices (CO) in highsec and replace them with player owned Customs Offices (POCOs). This has created a gold rush event of thousands of players scrambling to remove interbus to replace with their own. Player corporations who control the POCOs are able to collect taxes from all players who do Planetary Interactions (PI) on the planets below them. A very significant portion of PI is conducted in highsec - mostly around the trade hubs.
We're tracking the purge of highsec Interbus COs and their rapid replacement by player POCOs for posterity. More updates will come as we gather data. We're prioritizing the regions that we expect to fall first, so updates will come in order of activity.
Highsec Interbus Purge Update Status:
The Forge (643 highsec planets, 159 lowsec planets) - ALL highsec interbus are dead as of 4:03 November 23rd, 2013. 97%+ of all possible planets have already been replaced by player POCOs, mostly by mixed gold rush corps who managed to nab them. Only 4 interbus remain in the entire region, in Paala lowsec.
Lonetrek (664 highsec, 177 lowsec) - Around 70% of highsec interbus have been killed and replaced. Scouting continues...
The Citadel (563 highsec, 179 lowsec) - "soon"
Campaign Stats:
- 2,469 interbus have been recorded killed so far this month (4 days after expansion)
Customs Office rules:
- It does NOT cause PVP aggression to shoot an Interbus CO. It causes 5 minute PVE aggression. This means players can safely sit and grind these structures to death without fear of reprisal.
- Interbus CO's have a fixed 17% tax rate.
- The skill "Customs Code Expertise" does not reduce the tax rate on Interbus COs, it only reduces the NPC tax rate of player POCOs. This NPC tax rate on highsec player POCOs is fixed at 10%, with level 5 of this skill you can reduce that to 5%. Player corporation taxes are added on top of the NPC tax.
- Exports use the full tax rate, imports always use half the tax rate.

Y'know I was looking for a good excuse to tear down all my factories, because PI was boring as heck and was really starting to grate on my nerves. I only kept at it for so long because the ISK was decent. Welp, not anymore, and no ISK = no motivation.
Whip out the sledgehammers, boys, time to close these shops up for good. Thanks CCP! 
No seriously, thanks! Now I can spend more time doing things that I actually enjoy and can happily put your dysfunctional PI system behind me for good with zero regrets. You've actually made the game better by removing PI from 90% of the playerbase's reach.
Maybe that's not how you wanted to make it better, but whatever - it got the job done, and that's what counts, right? More free time for shooting things YAY!

No, you're right, you just didn't continue the line of thinking.
They don't control Sov because they are no good at shooting anything that genuinely fights back. Rats, structures, asteroids? Carebears grind those down with no problem.

People still care about ninja salvage? Really? 80% of that loot confetti vanishes before any one ship can grab it. Who cares if someone ninjas confetti that you weren't going to be able to claim anyway? Makes no sense.

I would, but at the moment, it's being used for a fantastic bit of blackmail. I apparently dropped my POCO on his highsec factory planet, and he really doesn't want anyone to gank his hauler while carrying delicious expensive PI products.
It's even worse that said blackmailer can see exactly when he does an import/export cycle...

This idea was originally proposed by Glevon Goblin in the article "Thousands of fleet bears, please ignore."
Interesting read, though I am curious as to whether any null sec entities will realise that it could actually work. CCP almost made it work, though they lacked the skilled FCs required to make a 2000-strong roam into null sec actually function.

The nullsec alliances own the most. They are concealing them across dozens of neutral highsec corps. The goal was to get highsec PIers to pay the nullsec block while not knowing they were doing so, and not knowing who to retaliate against. I would not be surprised if RvB owns the most highsec pocos within a single public entity though. |

You have to remember that most people don't read patch notes. From their perspective the tax went from 10% pre-Rubicon to 12% now, and the name attached to this new, higher tax office is yours. They have no clue that the tax rate on NPC offices changed to 17% or that they can train a new skill to get their tax rate below pre-Rubicon levels at your POCO.
As funny as it would be to attribute this to hard core PvEism, it's most like just ordinary MMO-patch-ignorantism. |

This, so much this. RvB decided to do a POCO grab to supplement our meagre income (we don't own moons, we don't rent space etc etc). We set the tax rate to neutrals to a very reasonable rate. And yet, people flipped out. |

Its weird I agree, I mean we often leveraged a buyout of someones POCOs in lowsec with a low tax offer or flat out told them 'its easier to offer you some isk than shoot these if we dont have to'. I guess low sec is just more chilled out that way.

Can you fly a Talos and fit tech 2 blaster. Do you have hours of free time to spend staring at your computer screen?

Er, I don't know if you know, but a siegefleet uses torp bombers.
There are no goons. The goons' 0.0 dream is over.

Just an update on the pocogeddon/pococide/pocalypse:
Caldari highsec is done. Amarr highsec is nearly done. Amarr has a HUGE number of systems. It's embarassingly large the number of systems they have. There are a lot more interbus remaining in Amarr space than there were in Caldari space due to the lower demand. But the demand is still here. On a daily basis we're encountering other interbus grinding fleets.
Every system that we clear is completely POCO'd by player organizations within a few hours - even if the system is low traffic and worthless. Highsec islands that are separated by having to cross lowsec are not fully poco'd yet, and are just being cherry picked for valuable planets. At the current rate I would expect people to fill them in shortly.
We do know that there are shadow organizations that are planting poco's across many diverse corporations to disguise their gradual monopolization of empire space. We have been in direct contact with a few of them. We estimate the largest organization as controlling around 1000 highsec pocos spread between dozens of entities. To put that in perspective, there are only around 7000 planets in highsec. By the end of the campaign they'll probably control 1500-2000, and gradually wage war to take them from the rest of you. Sleep tight. |

I see you've haven't been slacking. Amarr space should be cleared entirely very soon. |
