If you want lowsec to be home to more players from highsecmake it feel safer for them and increase the rewards. Eve, we are constantly told is about risk and reward - dont make the rewards of high sec lower, that antagonises people, tempt them into lowsec don't tyr to force them.
Not many people are saying lower the reward in high-sec. What they are saying is increase the reward in low-sec. I liked the idea posted earlier of NPCs in low-sec having buy orders for goods at high prices. Between that and giving 0.4-0.1 stuff like hedbergite/hemorphite you've got a lot more reason for players to do stuff in lowsec.
I don't do any mining (obviously) but I'm willing to bet that people would be more willing to take the risk of mining in areas with players like me around if there were some mid/high-end ore, because it'd be significantly more profitable (and would make mining barge losses a lot easier to take).

Celeste, you have advocated game breaking mechanics that would severely reduce the numbers of pirates. You complain about wanting to get pirates getting easy kills, us wanting to crush your gameplay style, but you are trying to do the exact thing.
Thx for ur reply mate, but pls tell me where I want to crush ur gameplay. I re-read my last post and honestly didnt find anything in it which would really ruin a pirates way of life. All it would do is to make it harder by adding a true foe. Atm there is no real player controlled law enforcement. I'm sure u understand that I cannot hunt you pirates without becomming an outlaw too (which I dont what for some obvious reasons).
Cel.
If bounties were subtracted from my wallet when I got podded, every time I got a bounty higher than the cost of my clone I would clonejump to my implant-less clone and pod myself with my alt, and send the money back to myself.
How's that?
(He wasn't referring to your last post, he was referring to that suggestion)

The assumption should be that if you're mining in lowsec, the extra proceeds from the minerals should more than cover the cost of your losses, so that you can continue to operate there.
Same goes with rats.
The assumption should be that if you're ratting in lowsec, the additional bounties should more than cover your losses for being in lowsec.
Currently the risk/reward is not in line.
But yes, lowsec SHOULD be as dangerous as it is. The rewards simply need to acknowledge this fact.
Deep 0.0 is a joke. All reward No risk.
Ding ding ding ding! We have a winner!
Exactly what I've been saying.
