Considering setting up a large d!ckstar in .3 or .2 for drug manufacturing, just wondering if POS bashing is a thing these days in low. Haven't heard much about it for years now, so wondering if low sec dwellers in the various Empires could give me a little intel. Smile

Short answer is no, it's not a thing. If the moon is worth nothing, you have a dickstar and you keep it quiet, then it's quite safe. Bonus quietness if you run the POS with alts in a random corp. Nobody destroys those POSes unless they have some beef against you. Otherwise, it's region-specific, so gtfo and replace it somewhere else. I hardly had any trouble with POSes in null/low in a good year.

Are you space slumlord in Fountain or Querious? Does your moon possess R32 or R64 materials? If not, I wouldn't worry too much about it. Most people don't see the prospect of spending hours shooting your worthless structure that exciting.

Free intel? sure why not

dont **** off the locals, dont put your POS on a valuable moon... and we are unlikely to bash it. Bashing poses is after all one of the more mind numbing things a person can do, I rather wait for someone else to siege their dreads and drop them.

As said above, not really an issue, but.....

there is a quiet drug war going on, depending on your region you may find your POS removed because of what you are doing. removing your tower, reactors, arrays, silos and any reactions is seen as a cost of doing buisness. At least that's the word on the street

In answer to your questions, no, I have zero interest in moon mining, no interest playing pet games, and no, I'm not a pet for anyone. The more worthless the moon the better. Lol

Thanks for replying!

Thanks to everyone that replied here!

Styx Titan, would you be willing to give me some info on the quiet little drug war(s) happening? Just want to make sure I'm not stepping on any toes here...

Thanks!

if you put up a pos and keep it fueled and its on a worthless moon it is highly unlikely anyone will take any interest in shooting it. Pos bashing is just about as fun as sov grinding.

pos's will only be bashed normally, when butthurt occurs or the defending corp is litterly dead.
