Simple ideas to make everyone have fun:
1. Add at 15 second aggression timer to thieving folks, 15 minute safe log off timer.
This making gankers and loot whores alike to actually fit tank and form an escape plan more then just dock.
2. Increase GCC time from 15 to 20 minutes. This cutting back on ganks per hour.
Make the game fun for all not nerfed and boring.
That is a nerf, and does make the game boring for ganker and ganked alike. It also continues the slippery slope towards the total safety of highsec and the MMO-market irrelevance of Eve and it's "sandbox". There needs to be an absolute moratorium on ALL buffs to security in highsec. It's been buffed at least as much as it needs already.

"Undock" means "consent" in Icelandic. Who knew it was a false cognate? So really all this is CCP's fault for leaving that word in the English game client. I'm sure you miners and haulers will understand and be relieved now that this confusion has been cleared up.

All misfortune suffered by plex buyers was earned by virtue of buying the plex. That goes for naive newbs and people who actually put the ISK to good use. Plex are a bad idea whose only saving grace is the merciful fact that they don't actually generate ISK that wasn't already in game.

This game survived and thrived when it was far harsher to play and scratch sustenance out of the limited resources. If highsec ever did become a safe zone one of the most redeeming features of the game that distinguished it from the competition would be lost, and people wouldn't give a **** about deciding to play a different space MMO over this. Trixie is completely right that lost subscriptions by turning the game into a theme park would dwarf the subs lost by keeping the game harsh.
"Make me safer or I'll leave" is the emptiest, least-intimidating threat one could make to CCP. It's the "I have powerful friends in Nullsec" of out-of-game threats.

It's pure projection when a "victim" of in game crime accuses the perpetrator of out of game moral or ethical lapses, or the inability to differentiate the real world from a game. I know for a fact that I despise suicide bombers, scammers, extortion, and market-fixing in the real world, but I don't care about it in the game because its a fantasy Internet spaceship game. Just because YOU can't help but replicate your out of game ethics or beliefs in game doesn't mean others can't split the fantasy from reality.
The game is a different world with different rules, like literally every other game.
