Increase the number of office slots

We badly need an increase in the number of office slots. It's getting to the point where its completely ridiculous in lowsec to find a good station, with cloning that doesn't already have all the slots taken up. A lot of the time they're taken up by corporations who don't even live or stage out of the area but use it as a cyno midpoint once in a blue moon, so naturally, they have to take up an office slot.

Would be nice if you could triple it, taking it from 24 to 96. At least consider it CCP. :) Helps with the whole theme of people ~living in lowsec~.

Good station locations are supposed to be heavily competed over, so I'm not sure how good of an argument that is to increase the slots to such a high degree. How on earth did you figure 96 office slots would be the sweet spot anyway? You don't write how you came up with your solution, so it reads like "I encountered difficulties in the game, so please change it, so I don't have to adjust. kthxbai lol". Maybe that is not the case, but there are mechanics to prevent people hoarding the offices for the fun of it, so is this a serious problem or just a minor convenience issue?

I'm not saying that I'm not adjusting, I already have. 96 is 4 times the current size of station office slots. Given that the slots haven't changed (to my knowledge) and a lot of places are just taken up by a few man holding corps, I don't see the problem with asking CCP to have a look at it.
