You are choosing to play an MMOrpg by yourself, and are complaining about not having enough advantages?
Let's go down the list of things causal players tend to suggest.
- Small holdings - CCP, I don't want to join a real alliance so allow me and my 2 friends to claim a solar system while only protecting it part time.
- More Concord - CCP, I don't want to lose my hulk because I mine afk and alone so please give it 300k EHP so I can continue to play solo.
- Bigger Solo ISK Faucets - CCP, I don't have the time to invest in EVE so please make solo content that makes me still competitive with big teamplay content.
- Fleet Balancing - CCP, I don't want to fly with friends so please make some weird mechanic that makes larger fleets less effective against my solo ship.
- Buy/Trade/More SP - CCP, I don't play as much so I should train faster than others to stay competitive.
- Reimbursement - CCP, I don't want to play with everyone else so you should reimburse my losses in PVP.
- Dueling System - CCP, I don't want to play with everyone else so you should make me only able to PVP when I feel like it.
Stop suggesting game breaking things because you are unable/unwilling to invest the time or thought to play this game as a team, as it is intended to be.
Discuss.

I agree 100% that changes like these should not be implemented.
That said, if someone wants to play EVE online alone, who am I to tell them otherwise. It's their 15 bucks a month, not mine. |

The Harsh Truth About "masternerdguy"
You must be really lonely and need to post for attention.

Poor business plan to only cater to people that have 6 - 8 hours a day to blow on a game.
You can in fact have content for both groups...
I think you miss understand the small holdings claim...rather make null sec more accessible to smaller corps or people besides having to hold space or be in a uber alliance. (Exploration, null indie etc) |

Tired, worn and lame canard.
Regardless of playing in a huge alliance, in a corp by your self or in an NPC corp, we are all playing with and against everyone else as soon as we log on. |

Small holdings- Sure, so long as no one wants to compete over you with it and you can keep the rat population down enough to warrant your claim on SOV.
More Concord- You know, the hulk isn't the only ship that can mine... did no one teach you cost/profit analysis?
Bigger Solo ISK Faucets- Sure, so long as you are lucky, high skilled, and extremely sneaky. Its called stealing/ganking in case you were wondering.
Fleet Balancing- The "Titan" class ship used to have an A.O.E that made sup-cap fleet scurry like little ants 
Perhaps we shall add some projected A.O.E as we don't like people blobbing up into incoherent masses.
Buy/Trade/More SP- Sure, we will eventually implement transferable attribute points so you can effectively buy faster training from other players with attribute points to spare. 
Reimbursement- Sure, just pay the insurance premiums. Ship hulls aren't free you know. 
Dueling System- We were thinking of creating some arena type areas in high sec with entrance fees, rankings, and prizes. If you can get enough people to scream and whine on the forums for it, maybe we will implement it.  |

Thought this was a sand box, who are you to tell me how I should play?
You fail to understand that high sec is the safest place for grieffers, not for pve or regular pvp dudes. Grieffing is against CCP's rules and Concord mechanics abuses/exploits deserve a special treatment, and when those are not functioning properly or bug they must be reviewed.
Players feedbak is important to change things in the game that are game breaking of bad experience for the community or a part of it, even if it's the part of it you hate.

The very best solo content I've ever experienced in Eve is exploration and null sec exploration rewards, solo sanctums in null sec (yummy rats at 1.5M bounty and +) and gank, those activities don't need team work and I can do it whenever I have some time, plus my loss or risk are very small while rewards are huge except ganking.

Massive MULTIPLAYER Online Role Playing Game
Trying to play solo in an MMORPG is like expecting to play a shooter game without getting shot at. Point is, if you play solo you are putting yourself at a disadvantage. If you don't want to play with others you should not be accommodated for. |

You realize MULTIPLAYER means that more than one person is playing it at the same time, not that you have to play with those people, right? Oh, from your statement, I guess you don't.
Don't assume bad intent, when stupidity is the much more likely cause. |

The harsh truth about solo players will only be exposed if you open the door after knocking loudly and receiving no response.
As for casual players, well, they'll generally leave the door open anyway.

Anybody that pays for their monthly subscription with real world money can play casually. Their complaints are irrelevant until they start costing CCP money, just like the rest of us.
