Another idea on system security status... killing significant numbers of NPC rats in a system should slowly increase a system's security while leaving the rats alone for a long time would slowly let them sneak back in.
Let's say a corp moves in to a system in 0.0. Over months of hitting the various rats in there they can slowly bump it up to a 0.1 and beyond with each point in security being exponentially harder to achieve. This weakens the spawns that could occur in that system. It stands to reason that if the Angels or Guristas or whatever are getting their butts whomped on a regular basis in a system, they're going to consider moving out at least for a while. This probably shouldn't be able to raise a systems sec rating over 0.4 and even that would take many players working incredibly hard to achieve.
Thoughts?

that would require actaul thought put into the Factions and NPC geo-political landscape...hahahaha that isn't going to happen.
Your sugestion makes sense, I'd like to see the security status be effected in such a way but CCP would have to do work on the effects of NPCS and they are as far from realistic as possible...rememebr NPCS are merely a Wacka-mole game where you brain one and another pops up and then the first with out knowing any different but vomiting out a ticket/token all the same :D

We suggested this back in beta and early release.
As much as I'd like it, I doubt we'll ever see it happen. Also note that easy access to Bistot and Ark could be achieved by alliances (such as the FA that I am a part of) coming going to each system in force and blasting the hell out of the NPCs for weeks. Within a few weeks, we'd have a constellation full of ark and bist that people could mine in with minimal cruiser escort.
As cool as that'd be for us, I'm sure it wouldn't sit well the rest of Eve, nor would the dev team (who don't like giving people easy access to high-end minerals) like it.

"Be that word our sign of parting, ship or fiend!" I shrieked, upstarting--
"Get thee back into the Tempest and the corp you came from!
Leave no bright engine plume as a token of that lie thy soul hath spoken!
Leave my loneliness unbroken! -- quit the space above my ore!
Take thy beak from out my heart, and take thy form from off my ore!"
Quoth the raveną
Nothing to do with the post, but I must say that is some really good work, had me in stitches for half an hour

The problem is that ore distribution is tied to the sec status of a system - If you managed to increase the secstatus of a system that much, the ore quality would degrade.
I think the idea is great - This way, ore fields would "move around" - Fields that currently do not have good ore would be in systems where the security status would slowly degrade due to neglect, increasing ore quality. Systems that were overmined would have secstatus increase, decreasing ore quality.

Then we in MASS would have turned g-me2k from -0.7 to +1.0 long ago.
And that would have been very bad if that would mean we would no longer be allowed to kill intruders...
