Yes he could have someone with roles anchor it for him but perhaps there is something he wants to do that requires the config role. (im not that familar with roles... does moon mining / ship building / gas reactions require star base config ??)
Its a legit point. However with the role changes coming in citadels maybe this wont be an issue anymore. maybe you can do all the industry things in POSs without requiring a anchor/unanchor role.
OP.. an alternative is to get an industry alt and put it in a one man corp and have it run the POS. See if the Corp your main belongs to would mind you setting up this POS in their space. They shoudnt mind.. if they do find another corp.
Should be problem solved. Thank you for understanding what I am saying and not flaming me. I really think this topic might need a Dev response. I should not have to have an alt to experience PvE content I PAY for. In all honesty I am kind of surprised CCP hasn't gotten sued over not allowing everyone to access what they pay for. |

It is pretty certain you will need to be in a player corp to put one up though, for the wardec reason. |

Alright, let's say the Devs see it your way, and you get your POS - under whatever mythical terms you feel it should exist.
Are you then going to sue the corp that shoots it down because you couldn't defend it?
Or launch some sort of class action against industrialists for price rigging because you can't fuel it?
Or indeed against any player who doesn't make use of your facility - that you yourself have described as a money making opportunity.
I really don't see your point.
It has been explained how you can achieve what you want - form a corp and build it (no one is stopping you)(there are plenty of industrial players happy to sell you the things you need to do so) - but for some reason you appear unable or unwilling to understand what is being said.

I feel like who will be allowed to use the sandbox that everyone pays the same amount for is not a fine detail, especially with the shape this games player base is in.
Citadels will have modules like ships, I don't need corporation role permissions to undock a ship. Citadels should be treated like ships. |

It doesnt need a Dev responce. Your problem is solvable using the existing mechanics.
You have several options.
You can train an industry alt on the same account as your main. Put him in a one man corp and train the skills you need to run the POS and do industry effectively. You can even do dual character training so you don t loose training time on your main. If you dont want to train you can buy a character on the bazzar. These options do not require a 2nd account.
EvE isnt a log on and be able to do everything at once kind of game.. Your not the chosen one, god king, best warrior/mage who ever was. Eve is about choices and the consquences of those choices. Your paying for the ability to choose what you want to do in the game and part of the games appeal is that obtaining what you want is not easy and can take a long time. Most of us find that satisfying.
Your not paying for the ability to be able to log in and do everything at once on a single character.

You are paying like everyone else. If I decide that you can't have fun, then you can't have fun unless you defend your fun.
THAT is what you are paying for. YOU are the one with the bad attitude wanting things for yourself.
You come here talking bad about those who made sure this game actually exists.
You can have your citadel. You won't get to have fun with it.

whut? you're making less and less sense the longer this thread progresses.
I do not understand what is stopping you from setting up your own POS. If you want to set one up, go find a vacant moon and drop your very own personal space yurt.
The only thing stopping YOU from anchoring a POS is YOU!
Note: Keeping a POS once you've anchored it is a whole different bucket of vomit.

I cheered when Nullarbor originally said that they were trying to make the new structures usable by individuals. Then I got mad when he said they would remain corp structures only. Then I thought it through and realised that there was no real alternative because of highsec aggression mechanics.
If you want a solo structure just form a corp with an alt.

OP seems to be missing some fundamental points here...maybe more than a few...
1. Want to put up a POS? Don't want to ask anybody's permission? No problem. Set up your very own one-man corp, go to NPC null, pick an unoccupied moon and bingo - set up your POS. Making it worthwhile is up to you and no one else
2. You are in a corporation that won't give you the right permissions/roles to do this? Leave that corporation and find another one...or reference point 1 above...
3. "Pay for corporation roles" what? What on Earth are you talking about? Roles are granted by CEO and/or directors. Are you trying to say your CEO/directors is telling you to pay for a role?
Sounds to me like you are whining "it's not fair" because the people who run the corp you are in don't trust you with the keys to their expensive assets. With an attitude like you seem to be displaying here, I can't imagine why...
By paying a subscription to play this game you are not entitled to everything in it. If you have joined a group of people and don't like how they run their operation you have only yourself to blame. You are entitled to play the game like everyone else here. If you don't like how the game works, there is an obvious solution for you that does not require anyone else to change a thing.

It'd be nice if Citadels could be deployed in low and null by NPC Corp characters, since they can be shot there. Just like the players themselves, their drones, their MTUs, etc., can be shot. |

Well, I thought this would be about something else. Specifically:
Right now I can mke a one-man corp and put up a POS fairly quickly. If I get a war dec, I have two choices:
1) Defend my stuff. 2) Surrender, in that I take the POS down and lose its functionality for duration of the war.
If I know RL issues will interfere with option 1, I can just do option 2 before the war goes hot. Now how is it with Citadels?
I can still do option one, unless RL prevents me from being there during its vulnerability window. I cannot do option two because citadels take more than a day to take down. The war will go hot before the citadel is packed up.
So: For a one man corp, citadels are not viable. One war combined with one RL issue, and they are gone.
My solution: Citadels should take less than a day to take down.

I've mainly been a solo player since 2003, I have had many large POS (in null as well as HS) doing things to make me ISK, I used to BLOP, attend CTAs, structure bash/rep with alliance mates but my main play style was/is completely solo.
If I continue to play once POS are removed I will still need a way to do my POS stuff so I will have no choice but build or buy a replacement that suits my needs, I seriously doubt I'll need a station sized citadel but I'll definitely need something.
To some playing solo is sad I guess, but to me it's comforting not having to deal with other players who tend to be more like children than adults, I own my own business and I have to deal with that mentality almost every day so don't want that in a game I enjoy playing. |

Pretty sure minimum window is one hour at a time. And as soon as you start shooting it, it stays vulnerable even if the 'timer' goes over the window, as long as you stop the repair timer from happening. At least try to understand the mechanics surrounding their vulnerability before you complain about it, and don't put outright lies in your posts either.
& Vincent. Tough luck, but yes that is how Citadels will work. Assuming you can't make either of the reinforcement timers either then yes, you can lose your citadel if you are war decced and offline for 3 days due to RL. At which point you are out about 700 million for the citadel. Since..... RL issues that go that long would also have resulted in the loss of your POS, which also would have cost the same, I really don't see the problem with this. And you then rebuild your citadel, recover your goods, and continue on your way. |

I missed the second part of your first paragraph, apparently, as I was still under the impression that they were going to allow you to anchor citadels with the choice of for self, for corp, for alliance, whatever. I must have missed the change, when was that? It's a bit of a shame, though, because I could see many cases where it would be useful to allow individuals to anchor their own citadels. Not without some kinks, I'm sure.
It has been like this for ever, though, you've always either needed an alt corp or needed permission from your corp to give you the roles needed. Seems like it will be status quo moving forward.

There are not enough negative consequences to be in a NPC corp at the moment so giving players who are part of a NPC corp the ability to deploy citadels would be the complete wrong choice. It-¦s stupid enough to have all the "alts" in NPC corps so you can-¦t do anything vs them outside of low-sec / zero-zero.

If you cannot kill someone in high sec that is in an NPC corp, you are doing it wrong.
Besides, I have met plenty of gankers in NPC corps.
It's not like you can create throw away 1 man corps that disbands every time it's war decced.

To sum it up:
OP wants a citadel that he can launch, anywhere, with zero need of skills/roles and with zero chances of it being attacked.
Sounds like you are playing the wrong game OP!
