Could we get the ability to rename our star ports on the planet? It would help to organize our multi-starport planets we use for production.

Also with the change in the poco's in high sec does this mean the resources from high sec will get a boost?

Nope. Since PoCo's will be just overtaken by goonswarm and set to 99% tax to make PI newbies sad.

And then there was no point in taking over the POCO's. Less Aggressive Tax = More Passive Income...simple economics really.

Why do that when they can set to, I dunno, 10% tax and make huge profits?

Simple.
Market dominance.
If they choke off all ability for people to produce PI in high sec, PI markets will shoot up (PI is pretty important, especially since it is used for POS fuel). They can then seed the market with their own PI products shipped from null from stockpiles going back years. This way the not only get income but they have control over the PI markets.

Thx for the response's but We have veered way off from my original questions.

IMO there are a few minor PI Tweaks that would make it less frustrating and easier to organize Planets.

Being able to rename our Starports would enable us to keep track of which materials go where.

another would be to disable most of the double click features, like when you click on a resource to make I don't really need the info tab to pop up on it.

Or when it back pedals to the command center every time I do an accidental double click, I don't even use the thing in my network other than the required upgrades to it...
