Please don't turn POS into Stations. Yes they need to be tweaked but make it too easy, too comfortable and the allure of the frontier life is gone.

If you want to know more, read this blog post.

Not if they can be blown out of orbit much easier than an outpost.

Which by the way... outposts and stations need to be destroyed, too.

Just please, CCP, do some work to make POS's better than they are. A little improvement until you can implement them as you really want them to be will go along way with the community.

At the moment its for off grid boosting safety, moon mining, or a safe spot for supers. If it was viable to make it for more than just that I would be fine it there was just an expansion this year and it was called POSes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I too live out of a POS and have to deal with its limitations daily.

The security is terrible. A ship maintenance array with divisions would help greatly. We really do need to be able to set access and permissions on a tower by tower basis instead of corp wide. Corp members are unable to set up their own links for reactions which becomes a draw on the leaderships time. Instead of getting activities going we are distracted with lots of little tasks such as setting up links and fishing stuff out of divisions which members do not have access to but mistakingly dropped goods into.

There are dozens of little nuscance conditions, it is silly that we can not dig things out of containers without playing the cargo hold game and we can not rename the containers without jeting them into space. It is silly that we can not repackage modules, as a result we have to look at rows upon rows of modules layed out one by one. Unlike everyone else we can not change T3 subsystems. The list goes on and on, the POS code is by far the most annoying part of Eve. Please improve it.

This.

I fully agree, POS mechanics and the corporation management window are horrid. For those of us that live out of POSes on a every day basis it's a major pain in the butt. The fact that there are only 3 roles for POSes is terrible, it should be on a per POS or even per gun basis if desired. CCP could definatley take a page out of say Drupal and phpBB's permission management systems.

I won't even pretend to say I've read all the posts in this thread. However, I probably agree with many of them. I've put up POS's, I've taken down POS's (from both sides Blink

), and yeah, they're a pain in the rear end, primarily with configuration of the modules. I'd love to see what CCP can come up with to make our lives a little easier with regard to POS's, such as starting to implement the modular system. Just my two cents, again, on an issue that involves me every day in-game.

If the idea of making POSes useful has NOT been abandoned, and if it will take 12 to 18 months to implement then for the love of God get started on it already?

We've been telling you they are an issue for only like 12 to 18 months already, so if you have not got a plan already you have failed in your jobs as developers.

We really don't want to wait another couple of pointless expansions before you actually start work on fixing the EXISTING content.

Please.

Fuel blocks were one small step in the right direction. The effort to improve them and fix outdated mechanics will be well worth it for the entire game.
