Hello folks,
Fairly recently we're had the opportunity to bribe concord with tags and isk to look the other way with regards to security status.
Surely we should be able to bribe the empires to get faction standing back to zero? Having it go above zero would be very overpowered. But bribing them into neutrality would be sufficient.
Thanks,
Ef.

My personal opinion is that they should remove ALL forms of pay for standings and that includes any and all of the current methods used. Negative standings is one of the prices to pay for certain game play styles and it should not be easy to repair that negative standing. If you want back into high sec without the hassles of low standings then you should have to work to repair them. After all everyone always says EVE is a game of choices and consequences why should it be easy(even if it is expensive) to overcome the negative sides of this game choice.
Thanks for your comments, I would certainly agree that eve should be a game of consequences, but I feel that it would be appropriate to have some sort of mechanism for faction standing resetting. A costly one in my opinion.

When I started missioning I did not know about faction standings losses and while mines not negative enough to be locked out of space , if it was it would limit a lot of other activities (PVP ect).
This is one of the cruxes of the issue. I would like to add that I don't have a negative enough standing to warrant any sort of worry but the key thing here is knowledge.
Now that we know to decline, we decline.
This sort of leads to whole sections of content being automatically being declined.
Doing something similar to tags for sec, thereby bringing another reason to rat in belts in low. More targets, more "Content" or a straight isk charge at concord.

Great minds think alike. I'm sorry that you didn't get more traction on your thread. I wasn't aware that it was already suggested.

I'll just leave the name of some rare books in here you might find interesting, - Connections - Social - Diplomacy - Fast Talk (only interesting for misunderstandings in lowsec) - Mining connections - Distribution Connections - Security Connections - Criminal Connections If you want to know what those books have to do with anything, I suggest you read them. To be honest, I didn't read them all so the Federation Navy might not be very excited to see me in Gallente space but the Mordus Legion, the Caldari State and the Empress love me very much 
I certainly agree that these skills should remain in their current state. They certainly help. The main issue in my mind is that there is content that is available (Faction missions) which many people decline because they tank your faction standing. Faction standing is very time consuming to work back up. Even with these skills maxed, it would still be nice to have a mechanism by which we could reset our standings to neutral.

This is new information to me! I'll look into it. afaik you can only run these epic arcs once every 6 months though?

And don't take this wrong, your idea has merrit but a little work should remain. A few level 3 storyline missions go a long way to "repair" your standing.
Precisely. I'm not here to do CCP's dirty work! Just a suggestion factory :D

Faction repair plan. its a thing on these forums its all you need.
you put in the work to tank your standings now put in the work to increase them.
Going through the Faction standing repair plan is a) time consuming b) dull as ditch water.
I'm assuming you are happy with said game design?
