So I've had some one ask for me to look in to how we can try to increase pvp in the higher class wormholes and who was also worried that I was spending to much time sorting pve out for w space.
Firstly I'm still of the opinion that better pve and increasing getting people in to space is the way to increase pvp. The lower class wormholes have all done better since the pve changes along with dual statics of C4.
The biggest issue I see with pvp in C5 and C6 is that its a player driven issue, not mechanics. Atleast to me, the biggest issue is all the grouping up, which then leads to a vicious circle. Oh they teamed up, we wont fight them, their bound to have friends this time again. etc etc
I've spoke to a couple people who are much better at player behaviour and theyall agree this is incrediby hard to change, if its even possible at all.
What I'd like is suggestions on how we could maybe increase pvp in the higher class wormholes.
Hidden fremen has already asked some people in his corp and he's sent me a list of some ideas, some admittingly controversial.
I'll list them below and keep this updated as more people suggest ideas.
Ideals from Hidden Fremen and Lazerhawks
 Rewarding PvP active corps (harder to evict). Some Incursion-esque home system bonus.
Mass:spawn range when jumping wormholes kills small corp PvP tactics. True. Increases non-consensual PvP, but decreases consensual.
Getting podded into k-space and not in your WH home makes people more risk-averse. Controversial.
Give wormholes stargate treatment in that they appear on overview; no scanning needed. VERY controversial.
Reducing the number of wormholes. This would obviously increase encounters between players.

It was Hidden Fremen who came to me (well he spoke to Sugar who passed it on to me) saying it needed looking at, so I asked for suggestions.

It was frustrating when it happened to us, but looking back, combat rolling/massing was a very smart adaptation to otherwise winless situations.
this really needs more +1's even if it is hidden (doesnt really cos i've already passed it on cos its a really good point)
