Moon mining has horribly unbalanced nullsec pvp. Remove moon mining and make people play eve to earn isk again so that the blobbers have to run around in pve ships and get shot at too.

Nullsec is hard to get into.

My first experience with nullsec was in my mining days. We set up a POS in a dead-end system we rented, and we were too scared of OMG BUBBLES to actually leave the system. And when hostiles did show up and we actually tried to fight we'd get annihilated because we had no idea what we were doing (this was back when nano gangs were untouchable by anything except another nano gang). I don't even remember where we were, I was such a noob then :D. It was terrible and I came back to highsec.

Gave up mining, got into FW, got into pirating. Lived in lowsec for a while.

My second experience was with ATLAS down in Omist. It was pretty much what the OP described. Doesn't help that Bobby was a giant **** either. I hated it, swore off sov. warfare forever, and went back to lowsec.

My current experience is in Stain NPC nullsec with my current corp and I love it. It's pretty much just like lowsec only with much better pve options, no sentry guns (which just get in the way in lowsec after your sec. status drops under -5), stealth bombers can actually do something useful, and good intel channels so I don't wind up in a bubble I don't want to be in.

Conclusions: Your experience is null is dictated mostly by your corp and somewhat by the space you live in. So be choosy when picking both.

Why when we can run incursions instead?

Didnt realize logging in and collecting tech for a few billion a month compared to flying expensive ships and killing things.

Haven't been outside of hisec much, then, have you?

what do I know?

yeah actually. I have alts in wormhole space, null and lowsec. Null happens to be the worst cus its 100 man fleets blobbing all day long with hurricanes. But what do I know?

Funny, I'm not seeing "100 man fleets blobbing all day long with hurricanes". In fact, I'm having problems seeing any place where there are more than 30 in total outside of hisec. Granted, nullsec is looking more lively than pre-crucible, but it's still no spring chicken..

Yeah good thing they removed the exploration nerf so people that want to actually play eve have a reason to return to nullsec right? Now that the isk for running sites can once again compare to people holding tech moons.

This post derailed pretty quickly didn't it.

I choose high-sec because that is what I have time for.

This is a game people should paly it for fun

I've been to nullsec for a while, but never really found it particularly fun. PVP involves massive blobs with soul-crushing lag.

It becomes even more boring when you have turn off the effects just to mitigate the lag.

Now this is a very good point indeed!!!

If anything, NPC-owned nullsec and w-space are what sov-null should have been...if that were the case, then I guarantee you'd find hisec a lot less over-populated

So how are those guys making highsec players overpopulate highsec, as Tarryn claims?

As for deep-rooted null players, you'd be surprised how adaptive they can be when it comes to acquiring income on PvE alts so that they can pursue their grudges in sov-0.0 (because most people who moved to null to make money left long ago).

So, basically, people choose highsec because they don't know any better?

Sounds reasonableGǪ

You do realise this game is nullsec right? The very game ccp advertises is nullsec, the whole pvp thing, empire building, alliances of thousands of players duking it out? The fact that nullsec isnt as populated as it should be is due to hisec catering too highly to the risk averse and not providing players enough information on what null is really like, and how youve gotta get off your ass to get out there and see for yourself. Instead we get players like you constantly bleating about how the big bad goons touched you. Scaring potential players into staying in those ridiculous npc corps, playing solo for 6 months and getting bored shitless by the 10% of the game they actually experience. I know for a fact thats what happens because its what happened to me in my first year of playing and I left. Granted I came back and found a good corp to hang around in with other players until i realised i wanted more pvp.

Its the alliances, coalitions and communities that make this game.

Time ( i mean i move freighter loads around in high sec and when RL dictates a few spare hours can do it in my time - null sec you cant do this)
