As I stated in topic, my idea is to ban anything that doesn't belong to FactionalWarfare from FW low sec (including pilots).
Reasons are simple:
- factional warfare would be independent from any outside politics.
- it would encourage FW corps to create POS structures and harvest planets, as they could feel safer without terror of null alliance that could jump in and destroy it just for fun with their huge fleets.
- some features like blocking station for enemy pilots after taking over system would be more reasonable, as today we can just jump on your alt account, and take "lost" ships from that station.

There are probably even more. Maybe I'm wrong, as I haven't played for last half of the year, and I'm not even in factional warfare right now, but please consider this.
I just think that would make FW even more attractive, and I'm looking forward to see and join this.

Sorry if this is some kind of re-post, I tried to find something similar but I haven't. found it.

Hey buddy. Lowsec existed before FW, and there was a culture of lowsec PvP loooong before FW. What are you going to do, kick those people out?

I am also a human, straggling between the present world... and our future. I am a regulator, a coordinator, one who is meant to guide the way.

Well actually I haven't thought of this, but after all there are a lot of non FW low secs. And assuming that there will be no new systems included to the game, there is a problem. Well to be honest there are always winners and losers after changes. I just want to share my idea and hear what people will say about it. Don't blame me for being relatively new player ( for me factional warfare existed since I started to play Eve ).

As a Faction War player, I say keep keep the neutrals.

They break up the monotony of killing the same people over and over again... adding a random element to prepare for.

Plus, the actual low-sec war zone is stupid large. Entire regions would effectively be closed off and become empty (more so then now).

I, for one, enjoy the neutrals in the area. They keep the local low-sec market stocked for those of us that can't go into high-sec and provide targets to shoot at when things are slow.

How did you Veterans start?

Lol

This suggestion isn't very sandboxy.... ergo most likely not going to happen.

Eve is about Capital ships, WiS, Boobs, PI and Isk!

I proposed we ban everyone from goonswarm / any other null based corp from highsec under the same logic

Get the riff raff out of highsec.

Also would it be possible to only allow people with monicles to jump into wormholes?

plus I am sure its always good for lolz when 0.0 guests show up and forget they aren't in 0.0 and aggro on a gate first.

Ooops, forgot about them gate guns....heard that in comms on roams in low sec a few times when rolling through lol.


OP...a 0.0 resident unless going to pure blind has to go through low sec. Now if you reword this to say as part of this plan all 0.0 empires have the EC-/Torrinos hookup and no mucking about through 10+ jumps of low sec, you'd get some +1's (I am sure the jf pilots would love it at least). But umm, yeah, if that happened you'd have to go through 0.0 to get to low sec in lots of places lol. For any NBDS fw crews this should make life real interesting to say the least.

Your idea is the dumbest i have read so far on the forums baning people any space is wrong when all travel is open. you dont like non factin pilots in space HTFU deal with it.

If there pushing your buttons killem.
