You would think that people would be able to take the hint. It's so bad because CCP doesn't want you to stay in highsec grinding forever. It's their way of encouraging you to explore, take risks, and reap greater rewards for those risks. High sec is basically a "starter area" that is very badly abused by some players who refuse to ever leave it. So every once in a while, high sec rewards (especially mission rewards) are nerfed to try to discourage endless virtually risk free mission farming.
Take a chance! You might like it. EvE is a multi-player game and you will need to interact with others and make friends if you want to survive outside of high sec. That's the whole point. |

That's your problem see, because you are the minority no the majority. CCP is doing just fine. Membership is steadily increasing. And "encouragement" is not forcing. Don't let the door hit you on the way out. |

Funny, I can make billions running one null sec site. Where did you think all those machariel, rattlesnake and other fancy ship blueprints came from? |

That's simply not true. I suggest that you review sov mechanics, cosmic signatures and cosmic anomalies. While yes, sov upgrades will get you fixed cosmic anomalies, the escalation rate is quite low. There's a good chance in any nullsec system with no upgrade that you'll find a combat site (cosmic signature) that is 7/10 or better. I currently live in NPC nullsec and there are plenty of sites. |

It's your own shame making you feel ashamed. By all means stay in the shallow end of the pool if that's what you want. Some people like the deep end better, and lots of people love to swim in the ocean.

I opened this topic with one thought in mind and it was explortion rewards in high sec vs other high sec activities.
And what did you expect?
You want better exploration rewards. There are places with much, much better exploration rewards already in the game. You change your playstyle and go find them. Don't expect them to change the game for you, and don't expect all of us to change to suit you. High sec should be nerfed more, in my opinion. There's far too much to do there.

yes, I prefer high sec but
How can you "prefer" something when you've never even tried the alternative? How many years have you lived in low sec, or null sec? See the whole argument here is that most of us null sec dwellers started out living in high sec until we finally took the plunge. Then we discovered that EvE is a much, much richer experience than we originally thought. So we all have experience in high sec. You, on the other hand, what's your experience with nullsec? Which alliances have you been in, which regions have you lived in, etc?
Oh and by the way, "troll" does not mean "anyone who presents a point of view different to mine". If people really were trolling the mods would take care of it. |
