I find it amusing how there are so many ærepopulate low secÆ æmake low sec more profitableÆ topics. Pirates of some sort mostly bring this up after they are finding less and less prey to blow up.
I think you would be hard pressed to prove that Quote:
The problem is not low sec(.) I have lived in low sec for quite a while and I find it way more profitable than hi sec by a good margin. I found that getting a good number of people for a few hours to mine jaspet to be very helpful for the corp. The question is(:) (I)s the risk (too) high for the reward? Well yes it is, but not because the profitable margin in low sec is poor(.) (I)tÆs actually that the pirates have done their job (too) well and this hasnÆt helped when there are more and more pirate corps out there making it even harder for the carebear corps. ThatÆs where the problem is.
You have incorrectly identified the problem. You hit upon both the problem and the solution below. Quote:
To make low sec repopulate again, all these æpirate hunterÆ corps maybe it(')s your time to make a (difference) in eve(.) (M)aybe it(')s your time to get together and knock off some of these little pirate corps. It(')s not the big guns you('re) worried about(.) (T)hey will always be there(,) but it(')s those little corps and there are (too) many of them. (Too) many of them are making it hard for the others. Hurt the source and most of low sec will be back for the carebears.
Edited to make it a little easier to read
Edited further by Boz for grammar and punctuation.
The problem is not a pirate over-population. Even in the wild, there are only as many predators as the system will support. If you really want to know what the problem is (if you want to call it a problem), it is the lack of players forming up and organizing their activities and then complaining about the rewards they reap. Remember this phrase: Proper Planning Prevents **** Poor Results.
The pirate problem is not something which needs to be fixed in the mechanics of the game. Your are in a virtual universe. Fix any perceived problems within that universe. If you do not like the way things are, change those things within the game: Form committees, form anti-pirate goon squads, plan group activities well, et cetera.
Anyway, you kind of hit upon that, for which I congratulate you. Your identification of what the problem is, is the only thing with which I had a problem :-)
