It's all worked out. Just because someone is yellow in high sec doesn't mean it's a free target. There's a staggered sec drop penalty per system thats in place.
But that'd be awesome. I could just roam high sec looking for people stupid enough to shoot at me.... like I said - fuckin paradise!

I already got a concession out of Greyscale about that. ;-)

Yep, so ganker saftey should be removed as well. Looking forward to the first tornado killed by 100 ibis.
You only need 1 Ibis.

This group of young players is CCP's financial base. They typically have to pay the monthly subscription and buy PLEX just to be able to somewhat compete in-game. While the older (4+ yrs old) support their habit with PLEX and don't pay a single cent to CCP, and haven't for years.
Yes, there are the inbetweeners, the older toons who just suck and have to buy plex and newer toons who pick up the game quick and can overcome the hurdles. But I stand by my statement that the younger players pay CCP's bills. If they are driven out through an ever increasingly hostile and unfriendly environment then the PLEX will leave the game and the older players will be forced to pay RL cash to support their habit, which would natrually drive their subscriptions down as well.
HIGH SECURITY. Think about that. What the **** is it called HIGH SECURITY if it really doesn't matter. you can **** up a 300m isk ship that took 1/4 a year to train for with three 5 million ISK ships flown by trial accounts with little retribution. In the end everyone pays a higher price one way or another.
You're out of your mind. A few comments:
- EVERYONE with an active account is paying CCP. Regardless of if they pay via PLEX or otherwise. In fact, people who spend their ISK on PLEX actually pay more than I do.
- I actually pay my own cash for my subs (and I'm actually "old"). I just refuse to do enough carebearing to also pay for PLEX for all those accounts... :S
- When CCP focuses on PVE content (Tyrannis, Incursions, Incarna) the game flounders. When they focus on PVP content, the game flourishes (Crucible, Inferno). Get the hint?
Also, you're projecting. I contend that 99% of the people in high sec are alts for null sec/low sec PVPers. If they alienate those players then high sec will be totally unpopulated! (We can both play this game of unsubstantiated claims).
-Liang
Ed: And really, look at the population graphs for games that focus on carebears. Protip: they spike hard... and die hard.
