I'm not looking to prove anything right, wrong, or stupid etc.. I'm genuinely interested in having an informed discussion in regards to the requirements of anchoring things like POS's around moons.
I'd like ot start by presenting the quistion: Is this simply a "Population control" method? Or is it for more "scientific/canonical" reasons?
Some things to consider:
- There are lots of things anchored in deadspace pockets (Mission sites)
- Stargates aren't anchored around moons.

Obviously it's a population control/conflict driver thing. You need a limited resource to give it value and have people fight over it. It also keeps things to a manageable size. Can you imagine trying to find a specific POS in systems with thousands of POSs with the current scanning tools available to us. |

Excellent points!
In your opinion, do you feel the quantity of available anchoring positions could be increased wihtout breaking the system? Hypotheticaly, Anchoring around dwarf planets that weren't big enough to be on the radar before. (Keep in mind, this is all just discussion for the sake of discussion, I'm not suggesting this.) |

I wouldn't mind seeing player made structures in deadspace. Allowing players to make similar structure setups as missions for different purposes. This ofc would be non force field structures, and would promote more people away from just station > gate >belt > pos.
However I think the reasoning was to control space, but also using the gravity from the celestial to keep it in orbit.
E: Gates probably don't need it due to the mass it creates on its own. The mission structures I don't know. I doubt there is a actual logical reason other limiting it. CCP's Motto: If it isn't broken, break it. If it is broken, ignore it. Improving NPE-á/ Dynamic New Eden |

Even then, some 18,000 more moons are still being made available as anchoring spots in Kronos, and there have been hints that the mysterious CSM statement from a few days ago meant even more will be available over time.
POS spots is definitely not something the game is short of. GÇ£If you're not willing to fight for what you have in GëívGëí you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.GÇ¥

Wait, what the ****? WHY are we getting MORE moons? That makes no sense at all. It seems like they're trying to make it so that there are always free moons to anchor on, which is the worst idea I've heard in a while.

Agreed, kinda pees out the fire they were trying to start under High Sec POSes by making any noob with 60m a Tower Operator "They feel the need to cover their ears and eyes in horror at your very presence." - Pontianak Sythaeryn "I can't honestly believe that Peace and Prosperity has a face like a naughty sarcastic nun that's come to whip me with a ruler." - Domanique Altares -á-á ***FREE THE JITA 1*** |

This needs to not happen. Seriously. That's ****** up and it's not something CCP can fix. It's not like they can just take the moons away again once people start using them. "Pretty much all 14 of the CSM were in favor of a drone assign nerf for OBVIOUS gameplay reasons" - Sala Cameron

You're welcome, I assumed there were some that might think it was a suggestion, or a troll thread. Some people tend to confuse everything as a troll or tinfoil hat topic. Every single thread......
But that's big of you to confess to it :p |

It seems like they're trying to make it so that there are always free moons to anchor on, which is the worst idea I've heard in a while. I get the feeling that it's because they feel that more future industry will be POS based and they want to get rid of the nonsensical restrictions for putting one up. They also seem to want to let players decide what's available in systems GÇö even in highsec GÇö rather than having NPC stations dictate it. Getting more moons is just a side-effect of that.
Basically, some systems are pretty much pointless from a game-dynamics standpoint right now. Making their moons available gives them something at leastGǪ but yeah, it's highly debatable if the sheer amount of moons we'll have is really necessary. GÇ£If you're not willing to fight for what you have in GëívGëí you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.GÇ¥

You must have missed the memo. Anything perceived as a buff to high sec is bad.

I think mebbee CCP is just hedging in case world +dog starts putting up towers so they can avoid the inevitable bitching and re-visitation of it.

Well pfft, no big deal. If anything it means more players who move to a player made corp to anchor a POS and thus able to be war dec'd over the moon spot.
