Seems to me the problem with null sec is the ability to die. and people are more then happy to kill you. since this is the case and people in null sec seem to not like the route of live and let live this was the result of a discussion i had during fleet op, figured id mention it here too for other miners or just anyone.

(Professional miners usually have higher security standings, so im posting for miners here, but anyone can answer.)

Since people mine in high sec because of concord protection. people use orca in the fields in high sec, but not rorquel's in null( a real waste). among other things that make null sec not a good idea. here a couple of points.

there is a security standing that has penalties for negative, these are well known so no need to explain them. but nothing at all for a higher standing then 0

Give something in return, to help in null sec for a +5.0 or even an +8.0 security standing. love to here the ideas on what this should be. and ill go first. this should be in contrast to the penalties for a -5.0 or -8.0 in empire and would seem fair to me to get something for earning that high.

(((((( I removed to keep the line on topic))))))


remember this post is mainly about what people think is a fair benefit to a high security standing. i think there should be one. and it should be equal to the difficulty we all know it is to get even 5.0 or even 8.0 sec standing. also this beinfit should mirror the negative effect, of making getting into empire difficult or impossible at -8.0. so an 8.0 sec standing should make getting into null sec or low sec easier, since the pilot has proven they are law abiding the law should abide by them. well i could talk for hours on why i think there should be a benefit but i'm curious what you all think it should be.

what benefit do you think concord should bestow for a high or extremely high security standing, for pilots of any kind that want to go to lower security systems, or even just at all.

P.S. i know your security standing translates to corp standing with concord stations. pipe dreams can be used for plumbing of what becomes reality you know! so lets here those ideas, and be nice :P

I did read the entire post... I should get a medal.

I do have some concerns about possible exploits.
- can this Null CONCORD instapop a Titan ?
- can a 1 man Corp claim such a system and get CONCORD protection for his POS
- do you need to wardeck the corp to avoid the CONCORD ban hammer... which does negate the whole purpose

I thought that would happen, my suggestion for this post was my suggestion. i really want to hear about others suggestions. i think a benifit to miners for high security standing should be there and with my suggestion on colonization juat turns this thread into a focus on debating me. so lets try again. what do you think a high security standing should do for people (miners and industry in this case) should be? ill repost my suggestion once i think this thread gets going. i have a responce to you both but ill save it. thanks for the posts as always though guys.

maybe miners with perfect sec rating should get 500% EHP lol.

Only if you have a 1% chance per cycle per strip miner of self-destructing.

A higher sec status should only increase CONCORD's response time in high sec. CONCORD is simply not present in low/null sec.

... but as long as we are throwing out troll bonuses for high sec standing:

Faster align times; +2% ship agility per 1.0 of sec status!

CONCORD EMTs!; CONCORD ships that respond in null/low sec repair your armor and shields. Higher amounts of repair per 1.0 of sec status!
