I thought about this too when I read it... but since trade alts rarely undock, why not corp them? Its an incredibly low price and very short train.

The entire "us vs them" scheme is whats out of whack. New players are introduced into a false sense of security from undock 1; beliving that high security space represents a supposed safe zone, when the reality is quite contrary. EVE and "safety" should be explained (and shown to be) mutually exclusive terms at the outset. NPC corps should be defaulted at war just like FW. This will accustom new players to the certainty that eve isn't safe anywhere no matter what. No matter what side of the coin you are on, that is a fact. I think the core problems we have are brought about by players thinking the contrary.
Everyone needs to make ISK. Bearing isnt a bad thing. Expecting to print ISK with no risk is the bad part.
Remove highsec incursions. There is no baby step here as running these gives zero reason to ever go anywhere else.
Agree with reducing ore in highsec, ice too, and make ice scannable again.
Personally id like to see a bit more motivators for highsec war. Standings, LP, or something to get people interested in actually fighting. Agree with the caps and scaled costs.
Tax the **** outta npc income.

Well, I am not playing the game to not have joy. My joy ingame is to do what I like to do. I happen to work in real life doing what I like to do, and I do it in game because I like to do it. I respect my joy in being able to do it, and my joy comes most of the time from being able to confront a realistic simulation which is what devs strive so hard to make EVE be. If you dont care about your pixel ships, it is your right. Accusing me of insanity for not being like that is the same "You see the game as I see it because it is the right way to see it."
On my side note, it is interesting enough when that bites the rear of people. You have now 5 threads running when a "its just a game folk" cries over the fact they were massacred because they ambushed a person from a group who does the whole reality simulation thing. They say things like "It is just a game, why people get nervous and amass a horde to destroy all ships I have ?". See the issue ? If it is just a game, why cant I play the game fiercly while the so called "hardcore pvp" play the game in "softcore immersion" ?
Try to understand the views of people, not just judge them by yours.
I am going to wardec you in 20 mins. I get joy from it. Respect my joy. Its all about joy.
Joy.
Does this make anyone else joyful? It gives me joy.
Joy.

One of the many nerfs to ganking over the years was the utterly ******** decision to make Concord invincible. This leaves us with no option to stay docked between ganks and greatly reduces the opporunities for interaction. If undocking didn't mean certain death (I'd be fine with reasonably certain) we'd spend a lot more time undocked.
Im ok with CONCORD being invincible and untankable, but I think that the FACPO needs to go. They dont really DO anything but prevent interaction, and are very easily avoidable with the simplest of bookmarks. All they mean is that a gank boat isnt stopping anywhere to hang out... they definitely dont prevent any ganks from taking place.

So I live in highsec.
Thats your problem. Why are you trying to live solo anyhow? Do you not like people?
The game really wont let you go very far as a solo player. Can you? Yeah sure. Will you get much out of it? Likely not.

Soundwave was on the right track when he said he wanted to get rid of Concord entirely and replace them with player tools. Invincible NPCs are the dumbest idea since solar powered torches (for our American-speaking brethren, those would be "flashlights" that are seldom used to flash :P ). Given that this is supposed to be a player-driven universe they make even less sense here than in other games.
Naw. FACPO and the Navy arent the same, although sometimes both show up.
Feyd had a good CONCORD replacement idea in his blog. It involved players flying CONCORD ships to respond to ganks, you could accrue LP and obtain different level CONCORD ships and whatnot. Seemed like a good idea to me.
