There are lots of other games to play, and CCP's latest developments seem to revolve around the further fleecing monetization of existing players, and attracting short-attention-span pay2win types of new players.

The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the ho's and politicians will look up and shout 'Save us!' and I'll look down, and whisper: 'Hodor'.

That all changed with Phoebe.
Some of what you say is understandable, but please excuse Doc when he points out that a big part of your problem(s) is that you are trying to play in null solo with a 3-man alt corp, and that is just not going to work, and hasn't for a long time. Jump fatigue is irritating but quite manageable, but you will need better planning and friends to be successful.

My alts were flying in a blue renter alliance, first in drone space then after the nerf in Querious. I had more access than I could cover even under the old rules. .
That was *prior* to 2013 correct? Before Phoebe and before you tried to go solo? That's what your corp history says anyway.
Good luck with your wife, may she always report: "Docking request...accepted"...

Doc had not seen this before. Thank you.
The way CCP sampled some of their data is flawed (e.g.: only 15-day olds, should probably have been 30-60 days) but the results are nonetheless both validating and hilarious simultaneously.

How does the true new player (flying whatever new flavor of entrance miner) mystically know what to look for to avoid getting ganked by a pilot that has decided that Lulz & Tears is better currency than ISK?
--Gadget
New players should stick to the rookie systems where they are safe from ganking until they are more educated.

Are you being intentionally obtuse?

Doc is now of the opinion that there are less players because of all these entitlement mentality players that keep sperging the forums.

No it doesn't need to 'find a balance'. That's the mistaken thinking many a game maker and other business person has made. Trying to achieve some kind of balance everyone finds enjoyable is as impossible an idea as establishing a feminist strip club is. Products need focus, and they also need principles to adhere to. If a Vegan restaurant starts seeing a decline in customers, the solution is not to start selling Steak...it's "make better tofu burgers".
'Feminist Strip Club' is the name of Doc's Plasmatics tribute band.

I didn't shed a tear over the Goons losing their empire, but it was an empire that took years of people working together to build. Torn down in a couple months by bad mechanics and a dude with a gambling site snapping his fingers. That doesn't bode well for anyone and certainly shatters any illusion of making an impact on this game.
As long as CCP continues to force terrible mechanics on us, and allow RMT'ers and gambling site owners to dominate the game, it's going to be a hard sell to get anyone interested in playing. Anyone that had the notion of being the next player to be profiled in Playboy or WSJ better not waste their time actually playing Eve, and just set up a competing casino site instead.
Really?
You are espousing the sanctity of the sandbox, while deriding those who have simply taken advantage of it within the present rules.
/Doc would otherwise welcome a ban on out of game services for isk, but that is unlikely to happen.
