As it stands, it's not worth it for an alliance to grind timers for days and risk billions in assets for little reward in return. Plus, even if they do, a larger alliance and just swoop in and steal it from under their noses because the new alliance will be without the basic protections (cyno jammers, etc).
I remember CSM mentioning that SOV changes are on CCP's priority list, so we'll see how that pans out.
You are perfecty pointing out the current errors in the current sov mechanics. Profit for an alliance shouldn't come from "R64's or other lucrative things in a small number of systems". It should come from the people that live in it. Thriving alliances should be more profitable than anything else.
Spoiled with all the easy tech isk, look what happend to 0.0... An super armsrace. Owning systems to just own it, or perhaps rent it out. But looking at the sideaffects, by claiming it just to claim it, your basicly denying it to who ever else is there. Excluding the small fish and force them to rent. Denying them their own oppertunity to have complete sandbox fun. How Hyphocrite! How did you got there...?
Having, holding sov, should by my opinion be more unprofitable. Activity based: the more daily login's the cheaper the sov bill is in a specific system. Sov will become a favour instead of a tool for power, based around activity. The affects of such based sovsystem will have much needed energetic affects to 0.0. It is absolutly needed will a self sustainable nullsec ever succeed. More industrial branches of corps doing things, more miners to kill, rorq's to awox and freighters to kill. Easier pvp ships to get, more people around to shoot and more micro pvp to be had.
Did anyone ever wonder, why back in 2008, the daily log-in was the same but the large pvp battles were smaller sized? (and dont dare to say because of TiDi or server issues )
