Everyone tells that it is CCPs fault. How? Actually it is mostly players fault, risk aversion and bad choices.
When CFC blue up 3/4 of the null and attack the last few standing, ofc you will have a whole thingy piled up in one system. Add to it that you lag the hell out of a system by putting 2k subcaps in it before jumping in heavy things, the result you get are the lost capitals.

I remember when i was in null a couple of years ago, local of 500-600 people made it impossible to do anything. After the TIDI was introduced it lets you manage a battle of 3k+ people. There was a fight in lowsec in Hysera system where the local was around 1200 and the fight was quite enjoyable (PS. Tnx Mangala).

I am aware also that there can be some improvements. But nothing drastical can happen before the next gen technology appears or CCP put lots of time and resources into developing something that can crush this lag. But don't expect that because lot more powerful companies are for sure trying to solve this dilemma without a great success.

In mean time is up to us players. Be less risk averse and enjoy the game. Is not all about winning. Dissolve this blue donut and you will have a great game to spend your time in. Russians should start pushing from west and N3 from east. In no time the blue donut will disappear and Null will have few more coalitions.

And whenever a new blue donut is on the horizon. They should be stomped before even contemplating the idea about it. Nullsec atm is all about people being sheep. Think with your heads, rise up and shoot each other and you will have tremendous amount of fun.

Frenemies is the best possible thing for this game and it is a fact in lowsec. Everyone shoot everyone but when a blob is around we form up together and put it down. Than again back to shoot each other.

It is not that thousands people are deciding, only a dozen have a word in it. But why they should change the status quo when they have RL interests?

EVE universe can be our Utopia and have a perfect place to escape from this unfortunate world. We are allowed to shape it how we like it but Instead we are making the same damn mistake as in RL by being sheep.
