Supercarriers should be allowed to dock in stations or some sort of safe trade should be setup.

Now that the supercarriers are balanced it would be nice if there was a safe way for people to trade them. The most easy way is just allow supers and maybe even titans to dock in stations. It would be nice if supers and titans were a more common sight in low security space. Anyone who has an extra 20 billion sitting around would love to have one docked up. Even just allowing them in certain stations fit with a 'supercapital docking array' would be nice. They wouldn't be invincible in low security space and would give heavy dictor pilots something more to look foward to. The only problem I foresee is docking games with supers but I did think of a solution. Since CCP has revamped the timer system they could put in a special timer for docking. Instead of your normal 60 second timer a super capital aggression timer for for docking could be 10 or 15 minutes even. This idea will create massive repair bills among other great things.

Why would massive supercapital proliferation be a good thing?

Already is a way to safe trade, his name starts with a C.........

But supers and titans there are plenty of and no, we do not want to see more of them in lowsec.

Eve is being dumbed down too much already and is getting lightweight, this would just be another thing on a growing list of stuff nice to have which takes away a players responsability to be smart about how they operate.

This is a horrible idea. Their are too many supercapitals in game, their should be a way to just blow up 90% of them.

Assuming you mean contracts, I'm going to go ahead and say you don't really understand the issue.

not sure . . .

in fact, I feel this way about this whole thread . . .

Who on earth thinks supercaps should be more common in low sec? or anywhere for that matter

Use 3rd party intermediaries. Chribba is the most well known but there are others too.

No. Get out.

Supers have been the bane of low-sec.

The problem isn't when one super appears... the problem is when dozens show up.

Contracts can't be used but it would be nice if they could. Accepting contract and get your super from a pos or station or something. Any third party is always a bad a idea no matter what. Even more a recommendation for from the whinny minnies. I wouldn't trust a single person in this game. From what Ive learned trusting anyone in eve is suicide as most everyone is scum. Ive had my real life information exploited among other things from eve scum as I call it. Don't worry to the east is what I say, the west has plenty of terrorist murders, they are all just in uniform mixed in with a few good men.

Very interesting. But it sounds like more of a personal problem than it does a game issue.

I don't see why supercarriers are considered "supers" right now, they're about the same size as drwass, albeit much more ehp. I think they should be around 7-10 km as far as size.

I forgot to point that out. A 'supercarrier' is considered just a 'carrier' by eve market and info standards. The only thing that makes them super is that they have special manufacturing requirements.

You assume wrong, contract is an item not a person.

You shoud be careful about who you give your information to. I've got and have always had great friends in eve that I trust completely, you've just been unkucky.

Dumbing down of Eve Online will result in it's destruction...

Supercarriers where allowed to dock till the one day where a drunk eveplayer was about to dock and sell his nyx.
From this day on supercarriers were banned from docking up in stations.

Buffing Super (or removing disadvantages related to them...) bad idea.
