tl;dr - endeavor starfleet once joined some crappy nullsec renters because they're the only ones that would take in his equally worthless main before getting run back to highsec because it was full of quitters just like him who gave up at the first sign of adversity

lol full api key to rent space, where does he think of this ****?


I left renters because renters could care less about what happens to EVE. They will only whine ***** moan and quit after the fact never having once bothered to tell CCP. "This is broken"

People like you just don't get it. You view hisec as the great unwashed or the rebels. They wont be your fodder and they wont be your target (Or free victim) so what does that make them to you. "Worthless" Never mind that the fact that they did not quit during trial is why CCP has hundreds of employees working on EVE almost every day of the year. You can't stand the thought of someone saying no to Nullsec or wormhole dog crap being the goal of said player. Those who have experience in nullsec yet stay in high are now automatically "Worthless mains that can't get in the good ones" to folks like you Despite you knowing nothing about said person. The idea of nullsec pilot saying no to broken nullsec just doesn't click.

At the moment, industrialists in sov 0.0 suffer under extreme disadvantages in virtually every aspect compared to those in hi-sec. Why shouldn't CCP level the playing field somewhat? Why should manufacturers in hi-sec get better quality station facilities, more station facilities, free CONCORD protection, free faction police protections, gate guns, station guns, multiple stations in the same system, invulnerable stations, etc etc etc, and then cry unfairness when CCP Soundwave proposes to rebalance this hideously distorted and unjust field of play?

Why would you play this game in the first place if your only goal is to steadily watch your wallet balance increase, how boring. Do you also watch the clock counting the minutes until you can go to bed?

Remember null players are often running both a micro and a macro risk by working in the space they do.

On a micro level they are risking the ship they are currently in as does everyone in space at all times, even in high sec although the real risk there is much lower generally.

On a macro level they are risking everything they have established in the space in which they live. If they start losing sov they lose access to stations, POSes burn all over and billions gets trapped in areas you can no longer realistically access. Wormholers take a similar risk though on a smaller scale as the logistics of attacking a wormhole corp can be tricky if you're unprepared. There is money to be made there as well but frankly those willing to put up hundreds of billions on both macro and micro risk levels deserve the highest payout, period.

I'm fine even with low sec becoming much more profitable, incursion or otherwise. Go out to Kador low sec on any given day. I had to go almost 20 jumps before I found a single POSed up Myrm, don't tell me doing your PvE out there is suicide because it's only suicide in your mind, this is NOT dangerous space by any stretch. Most of null is either empty or blue to you. Even when it's not blue, I've ninja ratted/plexed for days without ever docking and hauled back hundreds of millions in loot because there was simply no one else around. Use your map, a scout and your survival tactics and you'll be fine. Although I've not set foot in high sec for a very long time I approve of the changes.

Reality has an almost infinite capacity to resist oversimplification.

truly the rewards of nullsec space vs incursions is balanced indeed


sov holding is basically a gimmick whose only real benefit is allowing you to build supercaps and upgrade ihubs to allow more anoms to spawn so that nobody will bother running them

actually anyone who lives in highsec after playing the game for years upon years is just a risk-averse baby scared to death of the idea of losing access to the stations where all their things are in

the "rebels" live in wormholes and we just leave them alone because we suck at probing

And jump Bridge arrays but that took another kick in the face last year when they restricted it to one per system.

Null is and always has been an ISK sink. How much ISK does Goon have tied up in capital and super capital BPO's?

Haha OP! Interesting point of view you have there. The way I read that is basically less competition from morons. While morons may be moronic, they are numerous enough to cause problems. Can't wait!

You know what's really shafting high sec industry?
The people that do high sec industry.

I see it all the time, people making things where there's no profit in it then complaining about it.

Here's a free tip, buy up mid-meta mission loot for less than it's material value, reprocess, sell materials... or make stuff out of it and then sell it for it's material value (if not more).

Also, why should it be possibly to make huge amounts of easy, risk free, isk in empire?

I never found 0.0 that risky but only stayed there about a month. Get rid of local then you could really call it risky.
