1) Interesting idea, and one I can kind of agree on. The problem is how you would implement this. Would there be a second local window to constantly monitor, or would the people show up in general local? In this way, you would also receive some idea of the ship type the opponent is in (those who notice the number rise can count how long it takes to have the avatar show up)
2) Interesting idea, but how would that benefit either the PvPers or the non-PvPers?
3) This was done to account for the removal of mass as a calculation. Admittedly, they did go a bit too far for smaller ships, but it also helps the PvPer.
4) This was dealt with in the nerf of WCS, so thereŠs no real need of it. Also, if you were to include it, you should also include barges, exhumers, astrometric frigates, etc.
5) No. While this idea was posed before, I think the current system works well enough. If you donŠt like it, donŠt camp gates and instead surf the asteroid belts.
6) T2 ships have the insurance that they do because people are supposed to use their brain before engaging in combat. IŠd be perfectly content if they just removed insurance all together.
7) Agreed on this point. Alliances can now be everywhere and nowhere at the same time using jump bridges (reference the recent BoB stunt for an example). Supported.
8) While I agree with station hugging being removed, it should be instead handled in a different way. The aggro timer should prevent a ship from docking all together (if it comes from a player - NPC aggro timers shouldnŠt affect this).
9) Agreed 100%. Cloaking ships should be limited to the higher-cost T2 ships, to give those who use cloaks for reasons other than surveillance a second thought.
10) I agree, generally. It would help the newer players, and those with multiple accounts could simply use a slot from one of their other accounts to accomplish the same thing.
11) No. If this gets implemented, youŠll need to compensate the NPC corps in some way (shared aggro/ability to erect POSes). NPC corps already have enough penalties.
12) They might be able to do this, but only if they donŠt leave the alliance in the first 48 hours. This way, they wonŠt be a real player in the war.
Just my .02 ISK from a carebear who understands the validity and necessity of PvP from the industrial side.
