Quote: I am posting it here because much of what I have to say deals with wardecs and hisec risk, issues the denizens of C&P are well versed in.
op did not post elsewhere in Eve Forums? Only here in C&P does anyone understand risk vs. reward? op, you risk losing the validity of your message, and giving the appearance of pandering to a select group. Disseminate your message across the broad section of Eve and give your nomination a chance at success.
Quote: I feel that hisec is stagnant, and know that I am not alone in this belief. It seems to me that too many players are living out their hisec lives in NPC corps relatively risk-free earning the same kinds of incomes that players in player corps do, and that everyone in hisec is earning a much better living than those living in riskier areas of space.
Relatively risk free earnings? Wrong! Relative to what? A null bear style of play? A Merc tard style of play? FW?
As it always is with these types of forum posts, We have certain individuals who seem to know "what is best" for everyone. A Wardec doesn't stop me from playing or undocking. Yeah, I do take advantage of a game mechanic to "play smarter" than the other person. By the way, who is more qualified to determine how my character "lives out their hisec lives"? Other players? I think not. As long as I pay for my sub, I will make that determination. I have no interest in telling others how to play Eve. Just play and enjoy.
Quote:Currently, player corps only offer limited benefits over NPC corps, and I think this is driving part of the stagnation of hisec. In order to get players out of NPC corps and interacting more, I think player corps need a buff.
You want my hisec alts to start "interacting more"? In what ways? I interact with the player base every time I log in, undock, place a buy order, or get ganked! But that is not what you mean is it? Eve is a socially interactive game. But the level of interaction is up to the individual and not the "group think" crowd. The freedom to choose is a cornerstone of the Eve legacy.
As far as your other suggestions: Wardec fee, NPC taxes, Ore distribution, etc. I see no real added value to those changes. This year after year debate about how this "game segment" is broke or unbalanced is old and worn out. The time is ripe for the prospective CSM candidates to find another platform to run on.
Good luck and best wishes
