What do null sec players actually do all day anyway?

When I was in Null, I ship-spinned and trolled forums until I got a jabber ping to fleet up. By then I was too bored to actually fleet up and logged off.

They watch high sec'ers actually PLAYING the game and not sitting around waiting, and get jealous.

That's why they all tend to come back to high with their hatred burning and wanting to commit vile crimes against pods, then run back to their safe, protected BLUE space.

While we laugh. Twisted

Go on...

You should marry that woman! (In a RL wedding, not that there's anything wrong with MMO weddings and marriages.)

Pon Farr Memorial: once every 7 years, all the carebears in high-sec must PvP or they will be temp-banned.

For the last few days I've been trying to fix my sec status on this guy in between killing TEST in Delve on my other guy and riding the Neo wave in Jita on my trader dude.

Make stuff degrade over time.

Give people things to do.

Imagine that having no rights to go restock guns with ammo or fuel towers or online bits you want without having to be blessed for the work is a big culprit in why people don't have much to do.

It's all locked down and nothing deteriorates over time.

I bet there's structures that have been left to endure the elements for nearly 5 years, which when given some fuel will magically come to life in pristine condition.

This sounds like effort to those with plenty to do already. To someone that has nothing at all they can do but be a meat shield when called on, it will be a sense of purpose

There are good ships,

And wood ships,

And ships that sail the sea

But the best ships are Spaceships

what "elements", it's frickin space, the place where tens of billions of year old things emerge from regularly, in a game where people rat space stations tens of thousands of years old for sleepyhead loot

Ok hers some ideas to make 0.0 more exciting,and get players logged on.Make not sure if they would work ect but just an idea
1) CONTROL TOWERS, JBs ect make them capturable.Reduce their EHPso theres less actual grinding,and no RF,once the shield is down,the victorious forces are given an option CAPTURE or DESTROY.Once the option is made then a timer starts ,same time as RF now.The losing forces can now either try and retake the CT or JB ect or allow its destruction / capture by not trying to retake it.The important thing is ownership doesnt change .or it isnt destroyed till the timer runs out.I know its forcing battles in some ways ,but isnt that what most 0.0 players want. If not their leaders
2) Make Black Ops BSs immune to cyrojammers ,so they can actualy jump /bridge into any system its covert ops squadron / gang ,thus allowing for more options for PvP below fleet levals.Like raiding to take out infastructure,as above or to just destroy ships or as prelude to fleet jumping in by taking out the cyrojammer.or using covert cyro.
3) Also 0.0 players really should do more than just PvP,the vast majority of corps seem to be PvP oriantainted ,the alliances should be given incentives to get mining and industrial corps into 0.0 with proper stations and proper industry as in high sec now.Thus giving players more options even if PvP player ,after all a mining fleet would be a great target,and would need protecting ,for which the PvP player is paid a percentage of the mining yeild ,same as miner. .on top of any NPC bounties ,from CONCORD
4) I know GOONS do this ,not sure if its al the time though or how many aliances do it now ??.Alliances pay bounties for hostile ships killed .maybe in their home space to start,but if rich enough like Goons anywhere.For hostile i of course mean any non blue .Perhaps Alliances could do it similar to the bounty system now ie kill a 100 mill BC you get 10%of its worth.So if 3 of you take it out you all get 10 mill.But perhaps only the richest alliances can afford to do this .In which case CCP should be looking at ways to increase income for those without TECH moons
