Why pay rent to live in Null Sec.

The renting of controlled Null Sec space, is a valid game mechanic, sure, and fair enough, but why pay rent to live there?

Are the riches of Null Sec so rewarding that people are willing to rent the right to live there?

Why reward those who control Null Sec with even more wealth that actually You have earned?

Why provide the Power Blocs with the opportunity to be able to pay for their subsriptions with Your ISK?

Hey, its only a game. You are bound to find other ways to enjoy Eve.

Why waste your ISK so as to have fun.

Don't allow the Power Blocs to brag, "Look at how much space we have". Make them earn the right to be able to say, "Look at how much space we can controll".

Move out of controlled Null Sec, and DON'T pay rent.

To clarify, this is an anti-renting thread.

Come to nullsec, for only a little rent you too can be part of something bigger.

A rental agreement benefits both parties. The owners of the space make ISK from space that would otherwise be unused and the renters live in space where they can mine, rat, or whatever without getting taxed or having to go on ops.

If that bothers you, don't rent.

People like paying for the privilege of not having to defend their space. You know those alliances that fall apart when they get invaded? They should be renting.

If you've been a pampered nullbear who was recently made to leave your sov due to, uh, reasons, come to Curse! All the benefits of null and no one can invade and take it away from you. Bring your carrier to rat in and don't forget those faction fittings!

Test Alliance, Please Rent (then NCdot will defend you even if you manage to drop all your sov)

Yeah, don't you hate it when people spend ISK and claim that they're doing it to have fun? That is so lame. Fun is simply irrelevant beside a great big pile of ISK.

Who put the goat in there?

Watch the game mechanic changes coming in with the December iteration, and then you will see why people will be moving into null.

I'd rather Iteron mine in 1.0 sec myself.

Groveling at the feet of an Overlord for "fun"? No, don't see it happening.

Nullsec ratting is better then running lvl4's in highsec. Cause you undock>warp to site and start shoting rats. And the salvage/loot is aswell direct infront of your door. Mining can aswell be more profitable due to the higher end ores you can get. Nullsec is offering more comfort and you dont have to worry that your ship is getting ganked while using expensive faction/deadspace fits.

Do you hear the black helicopters flying over your house at night?

EVE is a game about spaceships and there's an enormous amount of work to do on the in-space gameplay before players (or developers) are ready to sacrifice it for a totally new type of gameplay - CCP Rise

Watch out, Harry Forever is going to change all that.
