Who agrees that CCP needs to balance the Sec status gain or penalty, when killing in low sec or rat hunting by either :
a. Making sec status penalty for killing someone in low sec less
b. Increase the Sec status gain when killing rats
c. Change the Timer for gaining Sec Status
Well there you go.

Being an Outlaw is a commitment, IMHO. While its tough to become "Neutral" again, it should, by no means, be like a switch. I feel it would be abused.
However, 2 weeks straight ratting in 0.0 is depressing as all hell, so maybe they could introduce a bribing CONCORD feature, to raise sec. (ISK Sink)
Just my 2 cents.

I agree with you but i think its too slow, a new feature or some other way to balance this would be good.

On the bright side once you've gone from -10 to 0 you've got enough ISK to buy a carrier, or a faction BS... -- A Solo Arbitrator vid, Distortion by Corwain |

Actually you be lucky if you get a tier 3 BS out of this. What i basically do is wait for the timer. So i kill a rat go sit in station for 10-15 min and then i go kill again and again and again.
Can you see how rotten this is?

Depends on your approach I suppose. When Veto. did it prior to turning Hi-sec Mercs, we barely made any money thanks to running round in massive blobs, blobbing the NPC's and doing the timers.

correct me if im wrong but afaik that has been nerfed, u now have to grind the system until the sec increase takes effect, so killing 1 npc in a system will give u no sec at all, ;o)

I don't appreciate the low sec being analogue but the sec hits being digital.
Pods always -12% is that right? Ship aggro -2% and kill -5% is that right?
Surely a sliding scale based on system sec more appropriate, and sentry gun power sliding (maybe it already does).
I'm no expert on low sec mechanics as you can tell, but I did notice it's very digital and there is little difference between 0.1 and 0.4.
The sliding Concord response time in 0.5 - 1.0 is a blunt tool also but at least it is something.
Coming back from -10.0 would appear to be extremely monotonous, which is the only reason I don't -10.0 myself. I effectively block a lot of systems I pay for from myself. I know I am supposed to have 3 or 4 accounts and 12 alts, 3 of them with high sec slave corps to fund my -10 alts. But I don't.
To my single account -10.0 is quite devastating, so I avoid it, despite the undoubted fun it is.

again, correct me if im wrong, but afaik i think there is a different amount of sec hit when u kill a ship, depending on whether it agros back or not, im under the impression if it doesnt aggro back u get a bigger hit than if it does try to defend itself

Yep, you only get the initial ship aggression sec hit (0.5%) if he shoots back. You don't get the bigger ship destruction penalty (2.0%) and he don't get kill rights

Needs moar bribing Concord for sec status back tbh. Increase rate from 0.0 rats could also be buffed as well, it just takes way to long to raise it and it can drop SOOO fast.

Uhhh, any outlaw that needs a carebear account to fund an outlaw account is doing something highly wrong. My outlaw character could fund several other accounts just on his own 
Trying to guard your sec status is a waste of time, and it's highly annoying to have to consider whether you should pod kill someone or not.

Well, this is my third time back from -10. It becomes a pain when you constantly asking your mates to fly ships for you when you relocate.
Wasn't a problem before, but now I have to move where we are needed, I have pulled it back to -5.3.

I came back from a long and illustrious career as an outlaw just fine, actually, so it can be done. I didn't do the "wait out the timer" ratting to bring it up, I just straight ratted and got enough isk together that I haven't had to worry about ISK since.
I would love to see the "after a certain amount of time your sec starts gaining on its own" feature return though - it would give me better sec than I have (I haven't done anything against the "law" for a whiiiiiile) and it would give those pirates who are on a perpetual quest to never lose their true -10 a reason to log in and play :P --

I think i found a solution you should get sec status increase when you shoot players in 0.0 like when you get a penalty when you shoot in low sec thats fair!!
It is known that certain people have bad faction standings with npc's so why not these npc give you a sec status increase when you kill them?
