Might I suggest that the reason BoB took the new deal was because you were not doing a very good job at utilizing and defending the region?
Turncoats.
What is "a very good job at defending a region" to Bob's eyes ? Please tell me because it's like asking Mr Casual to build a Titan.

I highly doubt BoB's main interest in renting is ISK;
Disagree. Why asking newcomers if money was not a main interest ?

the reason they do it is because their brains would explode if they were forced to fuel POSs to hold a dozen regions and defend them from raiding parties 24/7. The better solution is to either allow an existing alliance in the region to defend it for free (Firmus Ixion) or charge a new alliance/corporation to live there (renters).
To me, it's destroying the game. Saying anyone would want to do something for another (the police), pay a fine (the bill) and be asking to gtfo is criminal. [;)]

In many ways it is a win-win situation: the corporation gets 0.0 access without risk of attack by a very large alliance, because if a serious threat comes in (say, a 3000-man alliance attacking)
There is no Goons :) .. anyway ..

BoB will come deal with it. Without the renting program, the corporation would be wiped out by the onslaught and forced to retreat to empire. On the other hand, BoB gets a corporation to defend a small portion of their space against raids and to handle POS logistics also.
Obviously the renting program isn't for everyone. Many alliance and corporations can't stand the ego hit of having to pay rent--I doubt FIX could, for one.
Many Alliance, Corporation and PLAYERS can't stand to play under somebody who tell go there do this. It's a game. I don't want to be after my work under the command of someone I don't even know.
Bob is on the Eve of a 0.0 monopoly. I'm the kind of guy to say "cool, can I brush your shoes ? A cookie ! A cookie ! Pretty please some piece of some old cookie then ?"
