Small groups vying for the POCOs in their home systems so that they could control tax and reign in other local groups taxes? this makes me laugh because we warned about this, the trouble here is empire PI is already so nerfed that people choose instead to ignore it rather than deal with the increased tax of the POCO.
Initially smaller corporations took over smaller numbers of COs and put up POCO in high sec. I haven't done much checking but locally it does seem like alliances not based in high sec are wardeccing those corps and destroying their POCOs to put up their own. I'm not sure the situation is ideal or that much can or will be done about it. |

Didn't CCP implement a deploy-able module that keeps bounty payouts in it? What if the tax money just sits in the poco until you collect it? I actually really like the idea as it means you have to put some effort into maintaining the poco's, not a lot, in fact it's super easy and quick, but you have to do it.
As mentioned it would also help encourage smaller groups to own Poco's and make it a little more annoying for larger entities. Not that I have anything against RVB or Goons owning a good portion of the poco's, just more in space assets for small player corps means more groups will be willing to undock during wars to defend said assets, which means more content for everyone.
I think though that if you look at the number of poco's owned by the large organizations mentioned, that it's really a small fraction of the poco's in high sec. Sure they took the majority around Jita and other areas they consider high traffic, and therefore more profitable, but if you go out further from Jita into the lower population areas, you'll find fewer and fewer poco's owned by large groups, and more owned by smaller groups. I really don't see any problem with this.
I still think the idea of having to interact with the poco to get your rewards from it is a cool idea.

This is a good starting point. With some work, it'd be an interesting change.

Yeah I think it does need some fine and some not-so-fine tuning. But it is an alright alternative to the current passive and growingly uncontested system I think. |
