Yet another "we're doing something that screws people over now because someday we might make life better for you and you'll thank us for it then" from CCP. What a shame.

First of all you don't understand the first thing about piracy if you think retribution is some super win for us. All retribution did was add a ton of annoying eeeep noises and gave high sec more stupid "pew pew" options. The timers showing up in an easy to see way and rr inheriting an aggro flag was overdue.

The rats target us now when mission ganking.

Part time blobbers can come and go at will and we can't easily killright them to catch later in a dark alley when the odds favor us.

Security Hits happen if you sneeze at something wrong and causes ss grinds for people who prefer postive numbers. A big front loaded ss hit is taken on aggro now.

Sentry changes and GCC/suspect changes in low were not for us. It was for the jackasses that would warp a burning ship to a station to escape or the ever popular part time idiot that jumped into high sec with GCC. A small gate/station camp buff?...great we all know how exciting they are.

Transports cannot be scanned.

GSCs can be used to prevent smartboming in high sec.

"Traffic" is NOT a positive for us. We need someone to hang around not jump gate to gate with a Tenjew looking for empty locals to scan and farm.

Some prior changes that added nothing but suck to low sec in my time here:
Mission quality and moving agents that would regularly send shiny stuff our way.
Half baked FW that drew TRUE farmers away from anywhere without FW crap to farm.
Incursion rats regularly camp low sec gates with stupidly overpowered rats.

I wasn't here in 2007 and would love to see what positive results came from removing the high tier plexes from LOW SEC. It damn sure didn't help stop farming plexes because they were mine just like the static. By the time anyone scanned our systems they either found nothing because we farmed it already, a trap or a bugged plex.

Please, show me some numbers that support doing harm to your product has a positive effect over time. Particularly how Molden Heath and other places getting turned into ghost towns is outweighed by...? What positive gets us to the "net positive"?

While I don't really have anything relevant to say that hasn't been said before I think that instead of removing them, reducing the loot and in turn adding more of these plexes in other regions would have been a much better way to solve the farming issue.

I look at the Molden Heath numbers and dont care about these overall stats. Its been documented in this thread how small pvp kills have pretty much vanished in MH. Molden Heath was/is unigue....keep it that way.

would CCP consider maybe bringing back the lvl 1-3 complexes back as they were but allow PvP inside them, little challenging competition inside them would be cool i think :-P

Wow, that is sure some quality PvP. I take back everything I said about the change, Fozzie is right!. Low-sec is great for popping cyno ships.

This means its all your Fault Michael!

Now we know where Fozzies numbers are coming from!

Opens a bottle of wine in order to test this theory whilst bumping this thread for no particular reason anymore

To get the devs drunk enough so they would revert the change ?

(I kid, I kid!)

Also, bump for Lowsec Justice!

I could see my old house in Keflavik....and see if I could make a Dev pee themselves.. Managed it twice now....from fear and laughter. Wouldnt be shooting for laughter.

Thanks to the CP guys for the fights on the Teo gate btw.

....and bump
