It seems that all labs slots are taken. Why not increase their number? Ain't gonna hurt market to have more BPs... --------------------------

You're not kidding.

I think more slots would cheapen things up, but it probably won't hurt anyone except the scientists, not me, hehe. Naah better solution would be to make these things MUCH more expensive, and I mean MUCH MORE. Like 100.000 isk a day. New player scan't afford it, you say? Well, they ain't getting one anyway right now. |

that would kill the new players who want to start a researcher career. Nah, just more labs, would be awsome. Btw, I don't know if you guys noticed... but we have 2 times the number of players, and not much more lab slots... this is incredible! --------------------------

Got some 12 unrented over here.
No need to insert more lab slots, you might want to take away half of all the factory slots though to make manufacturing something a select few does.

You just have to be quick about it. We managed to sell a few of our unused slots in Osmeden for a good sum of money, so there is the concept of supply and demand to be considered.

I have one in a highway system. Just takes persistance in checking.
I had 2 in a system which is not on the highways as well, but I let them lapse. Oops.
I'm surprised the manufacturers arn't all over these threads. I mean, they complain that BPc's destroy their profit margins and more lab slots == more BPc's!

They're out there, and they come available all the time. I picked up 4 today that were not there yesterday. People's jobs finish, or dont pay the rent, etc.

Strangely enough, Curse stations have absolutely craploads of lab slots free.

They can put adding lab slots right after adding more office spaces on the "Soon(tm)" list. I think they said they were going to add office space like what 6 months ago?!?!?!
Just imagine getting started in Eve now with a new corp - No office spaces, no lab slots.

The problem is that people know they are in short supply, so as soon as they add more or one becomes availible at their research base, they immediately rent it and stick a shuttle BP in there researching to ME9999999999999 untill the end of time.
A solution imho would be that jobs cant be ejected once started, thereby forcing people to actually use their slots, or have them locked up so long they cant use them anyway.

How about charging for services the labs supply instead of just a rental cost.
For examply 10,000 isk for each mineral efficiency research cycle.
If you want to research mineral efficiency 1000000 times you have to pay 10,000,000,000 isk up front (no refunds)

True. I saw one recently that had all (32?) lab slots free.

Yuo can find them it takes luck and a lot of looking. The current situation sucks, I have an honest need for lab slots yet I have only 3 which is more then most people have still leaves me with a bunch of new BPO's that are still waiting to be but through the lab. And as a begining manufacturer I would say the BPC's dont hurt the market, you still need a high production Effiency to make cash and should at least seperate the good manufaturers from the bad ones.

I have looked in EVERY system in two different regions and cannot find a single available lab slot. This is unacceptable! If people are renting all the slots and are actually using them fine, but if they are empty, and they just keep paying for the rental, they should automatically lose them after a certian time period imo. |
