The POS system we have now is horrible for all players in any section of EVE.

The sad thing is, if the POS was revamped properly, it could create much more player interaction within all sectors of space. For instance if players could rent out public lab space, if a POS had better refining than npc stations and even POS transfers could create a whole new economy in EVE. What is the point of giving isk to npc stations, if there could be a way to give it to other players that are willing to make the effort and risk the isk of owning a POS?

The thing that worries me the most with CCP is the "revamp properly" part, but they need to have the chance if they decide to change the POS. Fingers crossed Roll

I think CCP is missing a great opportunity to grow the game and create a better player experience. Please fix the POS system we have now, it sucks!

The two biggest problems are POS and Sov. I personally feel that Sov is more important, but tackling neither is an incredible disservice to us all.

CCP we need POS'es to be fixed if it is not possible introduce new system soon.

How would you like to park your shiny Lambo in a public garage and anybody who wants to have a spin with it or even steal it could come and just do it, that's how I feel about my Loki when I park it for the night in the SMA. It is sad...

Just do something.

I have set up, taken down, and managed POS in Highsec and Nullsec. I have managed POS in lowsec and WH. The POS system is in serious need of some work. Please do not ignore this issue CCP.

I, for one, think this needs to be done . . . . . POS changes, here my dr;tl bs 2 pence/cent/isk

I Mean, at the last count, approx 10% of all characters had residence in wormhole space, so to say that a ' the POS system by itself would only affect a small portion of the community' I would hardly say that 10% min. is small, I would haver a guess at the players with POS interactions, and we might not be the ones running the POS's , we have lived in, used, blown up, researched, built, is somewhere up in at 25% of all players. (My guesswork’s, numbers may vary Blink )

You get the idea, it’s the breakdown to give roles to certain stuff to certain folk, it’s the way it needs to be mollycoddled every time your want to change it around.

IT’S THE FACT THAT YOU SAID YOU WERE GOING TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT, AND HAVE THROWN THE POS CHANGES OUT WITH THE DEFORMED FUEL BLOCK

You go on about having to keep med-long term players in the game, this might not be a game changer to you, but I can't think of how many countless guys and gals out there how would much rather spend there time doing much more EVE things than have to go through POS's and menu's to try and find one thing that they did last Monday so somebody else could get to that certain spot without accidentally blowing the whole shebang up!

Its one of these things that we would be appreciative if it got done, as you done a lot for the new player, what about us older ones?

Hey we don't like the current system of massive alliances gaining AFK income via POS moon mining. Lets not touch pos, K?

TBH, the only thing I was excited about for next expansion was POS rewamp.

Screw you CCP.

I've dealt with POS in high, null and WH. The only thing worse to deal with in this game is invention.

More game development stuff, less space barbies.

Heard of the "Butterfly Effect"?

The POS('s) affects us all in one way or another.

Please go over the mechanics involved in it.

As much as I like grinding my junk into broken glass repeatedly, which is currently more fun than setting up and maintaining poses, CCP, take a look at and fix POSes please.
