Ive been playing eve since 2006 and i seen so much change over that time.
Null sec use to have major brawls all the time now its nothing but rental space and small fights here and there.
then Low sec you would see decent fights and gate camps everywhere and large faction warfare battles.
High sec use to be some what quiet and full of miners and ratters. I remember when you could tank a Hulk out and solo kill guys in them..
These days i see Nullsec alliances jumping into other alliances battles just to get kills, and some have to travel long distances just to find people to attack that are willing to engage becasue of the amount on rented space.
In low sec ! all you here about and see are cap ships getting ganked while trying to travel from one place to another.
And there is high sec! i see players/corps telling miners to pay a mining fee to mine freely or they get ganked
I see groups ganking indy ships all the time exp freighters.
even ratting ships getting ganked by players flying in the sites and hitting the site trigger to spawn the entire room and once that ratter is taking enough Dps you can eaily gank them as well.
Seems like high sec might as well go away and make all of eve a null sec and Lowsec game..
If they want a New player friendly area then make a syatem that has a low isk profit that allows them to learn and once they decide and feel comfortable they can leave the Small high sec area and cant return but there will be missions that send them in a low sec area that they cant be attacked until the click on something to agree to leave the safety of Hs Timed missions so they cant fly around just to say haha you cant attack me. after the timer is up you are free to attack.
All of this is just my opinion from what ive been seeing.. a full nusec and low sec would be kinda cool i think.. |

You can always orbit our FW plexes. It's like sov lasering but without the sov laser.

Lol look at it this way!
If there isn't a high sec then all the so called pirate/ merc corps will be free fire and you can get rid of having to wardec them if you want to kill them . it will make all of eve a rich pvp area :-) |

If High sec goes away, most of the people there would probably go away too. Meaning you won't get more targets everywhere else, and CCP would struggle to keep the lights on.
Better solution is that you go away instead.

It's posts like these that fuel the "you just want me to leave high sec so you can have easy kill" hysteria that many in high sec cling to.
I don't 'like' high sec either, but I can understand that it's a necessary evil given the fact that some people couldn't play a game like this without it because they have a huge aversion to even imaginary loss. |

I say should it go away because in a since with all the changes people who leave corps because they want to avoid wardecs have now found that being in a npc corp has only slightly increased your chance of not losing something expensive.
Ganking has proven that!
When you think your safe flying billions worth of assets in Hs you find yourself getting ganked and rage quit.
Now if you increase the risk by lowering Hs to a lowsec stat then people usually try to be more careful when moving around .
Not autopiloting in a expesive ship or freighter in Hs thinking your safe just to come back too see you been ganked.
False since of security to me. |

So your theory is that HighSec needs to go bye bye because people there get ganked and then rage quit, so you want everything to be LowSec so they know up front they are going to get ganked and somehow that makes them stay?
I got news for you. The people who rage quit (not many anyways) are going to do so whether their loss was in Null, Low, WH or Baltimore during a riot... It is just who they are. Eliminating an entire section of secure space doesn't do anything you think it does.
And, I agree with the above poster. Would rather see you just rage quit instead and we can keep our HighSec. |

Oh my, looky looky. A thread about??? Ending hi-sec? Wow...what a completely new and exciting idea, fresh of the printing presses.
Seriously, seeing a new Nuke Hisec thread pop up in GD is like seeing a circus tent being put up in a corn field. You know you should just keep moving on, but the draw to see all the clowns, trolls and degenerates is just to much... |

First off! Learn to read the headline!
The headline itself was mearly a question of should it go away?
Second I explained in a short explanation of why I'm asking for an (opinion) on it. Based on what I seen.
And what does eliminating Hgh sec have anything to do with nurfing anything? It would take away the need to require to wardec to attack someone yes! Nerfing was not mentioned only that having all Ls / null space wouldn't require a wardec to kill someone.
Yes there would be a lot of changes needed because of the ones in place right now but (again)
If was a question based on what Ive been seing and I'm curious on what people think about the current state of high sec and if people feel it should go away!

I've been in the game as long as you have. So chances are, like me, you remember a highsec that was used mainly as a noob starter zone and a place to trade if there was nowhere else to put loot.
The problem is not that highsec is too pervasive in importance and utility, it's that the mechanics of lowsec and nullsec suck as far as travel is concerned.
This is why highsec is filled up, and the "elite PVPer" of highsec is just as incapable of handling low and null (when not in a big fleet or a 50 to 1 death camp) and therefore in highsec for the same reason their prey is.
Highsec should not be removed, just made as relevant as it was back in 2006: a noob zone. Few players would have dreamed of "working" in highsec back then if they have the ability to go elsewhere. The ones who did were the ones who did not have much time to play and were stunted in their development and knowledge. They took a little more time.
And as time wore on and low and null progressively sucked more, the "I jumped into low and died in a fire in 2 seconds" story, though not as prevalent as thought, became all too common. So from around 2008 to 2011 it was common to see players grinding ISK and SP endlessly for that holy grail of leaving highsec. But then Dominion SOV and the start of the great blue donut had come along by then, and then came highsec incursions, and most of those players ended up getting bored out of the game.
The advertising of the game over the years did not help either. The advertising implied that he who had the most ISK wins, hence came the min-maxer aspergian era that continues to this day but now we even have PVPers who are the same way about their stats.
Someday things might get mixed up enough that people can leave highsec and have a chance instead of a sure bet to get ganked or take a holiday and find everything they own is in a station under new management and the new owner wants to be a douche and then there are people with nothing better to do but camp you in all day. Yeah nullsec keeping it classy. Who wants that crap? Oh and the nerd drama.
So there you have it. Highsec should stay, but the other zones need to suck less.

Highsec, in accordance with the "Empires losing their grasp" narrative that CCP has established, should have the old "lowsec buffer" idea applied to it. Crossing between space of different empires should be impossible without going into lowsec proper for at least one jump.

That's silly, CCP wouldn't do that for a number of obvious reasons.
Time better spent adjusting sov Null to the players liking. Even though I'm not into the sov thing, I don't mind them focusing on that for a good long time if need be. Then hopefully improve lowsec, even FW, maybe add pirate FW or something, another look at plexing etc. The way things are, it would seem highsec is low priority. I'm more for drawing people out into other regions rather than forcing them out, which would even effect players in low and null that likely alt a bit in highsec for whatever purposes... even if they don't admit it haha

False since of security to me. The apparent safety in Highsec is what provides the target rich environment. CCP buffed CONCORD to a point where people are comfortable autoplioting their whole belongings around.
And we can still kill them. I don't see a reason to change Highsec at this point, as we are changing it successfully the sandboxy way with the tools provided.
If you want to kill stuff in Highsec, learn how to gank and don't whine in the forums to CCP to change the game in your favour like a little carebear.

If you want to see pilots being docked even more then yes by all means, make it low/null-sec, and then of course watch as local gets more empty as pilots quit.
High-sec is a good social part of the game for those of us that are perhaps not so into pvp'ing every second you undock.

/c Yup. Highsec should exist for new players, risk-averse players, solo players, casual players and so forth.
But man, it is way too lucrative right now. Making a PvE or industrial income in highsec should never be competitive with the other spaces as it is right now. You know there is a problem when everyone and their cousin has an incursion or mission running alt or runs their industrial operation there under the free protection of CONCORD, even if they consider themselves a wormholer or nullseccer.
This is a root cause of much of the malaise in Eve right now - established players grinding highsec ISK in safety, rather than in more dangerous spaces where they might create conflict and serve as content. It devalues the other spaces and reduces them to "consensual" PvP zones since highsec income sources are mostly protected. Make highsec less lucrative and many players will move out chasing the better ISK and this will reinvigorate the other spaces.
It's also why New Eden needs the New Order and other such sources of risk in highsec more than ever before. |

What some people don't seem to understand is that there is nothing like "imaginary" losses in EvE. Either you lose RL money investment because you bought a PLEX to buy the things you just lost, or you lose the time you spent earning that ISK in game, for example with the terrible PvE it has. If most ways to make ISK in this game weren't so boring that they were sensed like a second job, I'm convinced people would be more willing to risk their ships. |

No, why should something that is a MASSIVE part of the game that also have been there since the beginning of EVE go away?
Why not just remove all content in space so everyone can just sit in station spinning ships fapping over who have the most spinning while you are at it?

You say this, but with the exception of incursions, mechanic based highsec income is terrible. Where income really excels in highsec is industry and trade, but that's player driven. Because everyone goes to highsec to buy nearly everything, it will always be the income capital of the game.

To be honest, Chibba, that's a very jaded opinion of low/null sec space. The environment outside of high sec can be constant PvP if that's what you're looking for, but equally there are options for occasional PvP with the added excitement of just a little unpredictability. The game map is big and caters to many types of player outside of high sec. |

Never having mined in a capital ship myself, how does your veldnaught stack up against a troll fleet of CODE. exhumers / mining barges that drop on you and start eating the rocks out from under you? Never not PvP when you're undocked.
As to the OP's question, getting rid of highsec would be as dumb as making Concord invincible. It would be better if CCP invested some real time and resources into making sure that risk and reward scaled properly from high to null (and nerfed Concrd back a buff or two).
