+1 to OP

POS are painful right now for those of us who have to manage them and, god forbid, you have to manage more than a few.

If you spend any amount of time in a WH, or in scientific industry, or in nullsec, then you know that POS's are hardly a minority issue. Why so afraid of them? I think its probably they lack a clear vision of how to change them, and further, lack the ability to do so.

I have heard many times ingame that the current devs did not build the pos system as it currently exists, and are afraid to make any changes to the system for fear of breaking it. If that's true, it's pretty ridiculous.

Having lived for a short while in WHs, I got to notice some of the pain of working with POSes, and I wasnt even managing it.
I would love to put up a POS somewhere and really live out of it instead of being tied stations (say, Great Wildlands, not to mention Wormholes)

POSs are one of the least changed areas in the game. They definitely need some updating after all these years.

I fully support this even if it takes all CCP's development for an entire year.

I don't really care about modular pos's as much as I care about a complete revamp of corporate roles, the real source of pain with current POS mechanics. I would also say that if there is too much effort required to revamp the pos's themselves, then throw our WH guys a bone and implement a personal hanger array. Just use the model from the corp hanger array, give it X number of personal storage slots and tada, you've fixed most of the problems.

The reason no one likes to run a POS is because the roles are complete horse **** to manage, often they are an all or nothing situation where security is far too valuable to give out to anyone but high up leadership people.

FIX ROLES FIRST

POSes need some serious love, especially the hanger and rights management, which is even more important for all those who live in wormholes or lowsec/0.0 in systems without a station.

Why not make them a bit like stations: They appear in the overview, you can dock your ship there and if the POS gets destroyed all docked ships float in space (same for the pods of those who were docked and logged out).

Chiming in once more to say that going to Fuel Blocks was a good improvement, and we need more of this sort of iterative fixing of mechanics.

LOL r u serious ccp?

First off all kinda find it strange that u promote that eve is a sandbox and encourage people to go and do there own stuff, then your gonna pick on a group that does.....?!
First off all, talking about small community in the game, whole of eve is a small community in the gaming world. We dont have the numbers like WoW or whatever...But were loyal to the game, but the game develepors not to us?

Its costing us unnessesary isk, and u guys know it! U promised to make it better then follow up on that!

This is a priority for a large number of players. I hope that is enough to make it a priority for CCP, too.

Please start work on the modular POS's! Was so excited when they were announced.
