Russian players farming complexes is nothing new 
Those guys try to run several 10/10 and other plexes daily. Most of them are trained or bought alts and are somehow connected to aAa alliance and/or RAT. Before start whining, this is a known fact for everybody for at least half a year now. They farmed the 10/10 near Querious already while FIX held the area.
I don't know what they do with so much ISK (each run can get you 1 billion ISK) but only if you manage to log in directly after DT and run straight into the plex).
Only way to beat them is beeing faster than the farmers and try to kill them. If you are interested in some facts regarding their usual setups maybe it is a good idea to get in touch with our "plex-owning" alliances in the south to speed up your progress to send out the farmers. Be ensured: All have or had this issue with the russian farmes.

Perhaps complexes should spawn in random locations, stay for a few days then spawn in another system - the same sort of respawn frequency as popped asteroids.
It would be useful to have both complexes and asteroids respawn at random times, rather than after downtime.
Both are excellent suggestions and would favour the legitimate owners of the complexes again over the ISK farmers.

Remove all the complexes, why should one who can attent afterdown time only have the benefit. We live in a real world so people who work are allways ****t because they cant get in the complex because some guys run it EVERYDAY
Current system favours ISK farming and selling the stuff on EBay or wherever. Everyone knows the "You need ISK ?"-Spam in your mailbox. Seriosly, so much ISK beeing sold for RL money cannot come from macro mining veldspar or ice in empire. The source of this ISK is plex farming.
Also everybody knows the current ISK-farming people and where their origin is. This is no big secret anymore.
Maybe it would be a nice idea to make high-end-plexes in 0.0 only runable for those which have sov in system ? It would create more nice conflict over resources and disables NPC or random bought characters to do it.

There are several good ideas here to stop ISK farmers whith some really simple changes in plex game-mechanics.
Maybe simple add the keys to the loot tables for officer spawns and remove the keyholder from the first stage ? Also a solution which requires from my point of view not much programming and solves a lot of problems.
I hope CCP pays attention to this ?

Your just a carebear trying to carebearise EVE, the current situation isn't perfect,
No, the opposite is the case. I do not want all this uber-carebears beeing able to buy their ISK on ebay. Current game mechanics just enable carebearing and (even more worse) ISK farming and this is what needs to be changed to keep EVE a quality game for everybody.

theres only one change that would solve all the current problems, want to know what that is?
Stop complexes respawning after server reboots, however make it so the server saves when the overseers were last killed, even through a downtime, make the respawn of the overseers random from between 4 to 6 hours or from 7 to 14 hours, etc. That way everyone
gets a shot, because the complex will always be spawning at different times.
Works too, but maybe more difficult to implement ? I do not know, but CCP knows :)

Cry more, if you can't take our plexes, cry to devs to change situation - the best you can do!
Respect to ascn\axe - u r still trying to take e3- 10\10 - while all the others are just crying
It is somehow strange for me to sit in front of my PC waiting every weekend (I only can go there because under the week I need to work) that downtime ends to spam the "login" button as fast as I can to get into the plex before some HIAF or whoever does.
But I do it since I have no other choice atm, and this sucks.
