10 years playing did not help you to improove on your social skills, you might open the window and talk to some people in RL from time to time

no more comment like that needed, you are on my endless ignorelist because of damaged communication mechanics and a lack of respect, ciao!

This argument sounds really familiar.

Like REALLY familiar.

Like tags4sec familiar.

Since we already have a tag4standing mechanic in place the only change necessary would be to remove the "one-time" use restriction on data centers.

Nerfing High-sec is never the answer. It is the question. The answer is 'YES'.

yes i think that would help, CCP implemented the new tag4sec as well because they did notice that some players decided to leave the game because their character was locked out of high sec, if the data centers could be used more often that would be an ideal and easy sollution I think

No it wouldn't.
Data Center standings still impact opposition factions.

The system is designed to be whack-a-mole. All repeatable Data Center's would do is remove mission grind.

most of the time only people with low IQ think that others have the same because their own IQ hinders them to understand the higher IQ people, understand?

by the way you are blocked as well ;) see ya

the problem is if i run some missions the standings go down too fast with the other factions, and if it goes too low I'm unble to access their space anymore as the npc navy will attack me, however i need to go around as I'm trading a lot, basically i wanto to run missions and do all stuff in the game but when it hinders my trading it blocks me from doing it...


Don't run missions where you shoot other factions' navies and your standing won't drop so fast. It then becomes very easy and possible to visit all the factions and not get shot at.

just read again how he talked to me, if you feel you need that kind of communication, just add him as friend, no problem... i do not need it though, there are enough people on the planet who are worth talking to, for me there is no need to talk on that level

I think invoking "WoW" should be the Eve equivalent of Godwin's law.

Don't use Navy corps if what you are trying to obtain is access to 4 racial corps, not the full races. You won't get access to high sec POS or even clones but you can get a corp in each nation to where you can run 4's anywhere.

Don't get me wrong. I'd love to see Data Centers no longer be static. Switching out loyalties is what pirates do with sec tags. Doing the same with pirate dog tags for the Nations would be balanced. Pirates buy Sec, mission runners buy standings.

Have it 3 months like Epic Arc, add in a second tier for commander and you could switch out what nation you are loyal to at about the same speed as you can remap.

Whack-a-mole is actually fine in this instance. I am pretty sure the mission grind is the most awful part of the current mechanic. Its much slower and more nauseating than sec grind ever was.

Nerfing High-sec is never the answer. It is the question. The answer is 'YES'.

Try avoiding missions where you have to shoot faction navies, killing those faction ships hits your standing a lot. Hits from storyline missions are minimal compared to that.

And you can always train diplomacy, and go through the faction standing repair plan.


yea i know, for the missions thats a possibility but for faction warfare? basically i can not take part in that because of that mechanic, at some point it takes far too long to get the standing up again, the repair plan also takes ages

i want to be able to try out everything, but with all the time put into the character if feels like I don't want to screw the standing too much because it could lock me out of big areas of the map, it just does not feel right

This is why many have alts.

The trading/ hauling alt does few missions, or avoids the faction kill missions.

Other alts allow their standings to crash with some factions, and just do not go there.

Between all your alts you can try it all.

I find the rep changes immersive (it wouldn't make sense to me to be shooting up Amarr ships one day, and welcomed with cookies and mission offers in their spece the next). And I haven't (yet) really felt the urge to try out Amarr or Caldari missions - I'm happy with Gallente and Minmatar love.

However, I do have an alt who handles my trading - because I am really not loved in half of Empire space.

Have you considered having 2 characters to play on either side of the loyalties fence, and then a very neutral alt to handle trades and hauling? With the new dual-training thing for PLEX, it's a bit more convenient.

As other folks have noted - you can turn down missions that involve shooting at other factions, or do distribution missions. But that does limit your play options, which seems to be what you don't want. So just spread it out over multiple characters?

I'm not about to argue if CCP decide to make data center based standings similar to sec tags.

250,000 or so souls from dog tags in Jita vaults are telling me I'd have rocks in my head. But as an alternative because those are good, can we reproc the commander tags to racial moon goo and the regualr tags for a little raw moon goo based on rank?

I'd rather nuke them but 5K in minerals seems a bit comical for some of them.
