Want concord security?? Pay the god dam taxes.

Create a tax for players older than X to pay if they desire to stay in highsec for long periods of time other than to shopping, traveling or do some sort of short term activities.

The older your character is the higher this tax gets, and im not talking about dimes, im talking about something that starts at 50mil per month for a 1 year old character and goes up on a monthly basis.

Edit_1

Set a system to detect where you are for the most times and automatically set your homebase, leaving you a possible 25% of the time to be in highsec for example, working on a 3 days period range.

Could then also join fw into the program as all the people belinging to a faction militia could fly and stay in highsec in their space for any periods if time to protect it.


Edit_2

So basically if you wanna live and stay in highsec, you need to join your faction militia, or pay taxes that can reach an incredibly expensive price as your character ages.

And also change the way faction navy attacks other faction militias, turn it off and make it a player solely activity. So that other faction militias can fly through any highsec system looking for targets and not having to deal with navy.

That way for a player older than 1 year to live in highsec would mean risk and pvp as well, unless hes nit in the militia and pays the taxes.. The real eve.

There shouls be concord taxes AND faction taxes to be in their space and use their stations.


I say do it and fk the subacriptions, they come back.
Make eve be eve, as its supposed to be.

Another stupid nerf high sec post. You need to accept that people chose to live in high sec. Stop trying to force others to conform to your style of play.

I don't like high sec but it hs it's uses as do the people who live there.

Yeah no. Forcing players into playing the game a certain way will lose subs. If you have a problem with high sec carebears. Suicide gank them

I discourage running with scissors.

Would you expect carebears to move to low then? Good luck!

Posting in stealth "nerf hi sec" thread.

Wait a minute. There is nothing stealth about it.

Also, you have terrible glasses.

I´d rather see a bad forum posting tax, which fines you substantially whenever you create a trolling thread, deliberately post in the wrong forum section, etc.

For repeated offenders it should translate into 10% of their total account wealth for each bad thread and 3% for each bad post deducted from the character with the most wealth on your account. How about that?

So if you want to troll you better have a big isk stash.

Would certainly rid the forums of people like you.

Most of my activities are done in Low Sec including PI, but my ships are based in High Sec.

Your bad idea is impossible to execute.

Just stop posting, how about ? How many PLEX do you want for that ?

Stop forcing gameplay. I choose to murder and butcher people in Lowsec, some people like to play the game differently and I accept that.

I am one of the few pirates that actually recognizes where our ships come from.... and while I am certainly not above giving in to boredom, aiming my ship at a mining barge, and activating my MWD for a couple of quick chuckles, I don't wish to force people into playing the "dodge player pirates" minigame.
Half the playerbase is going to stay in highsec, because that's how they play. If there was no such thing as high sec, lots of people would unsub.... maybe a secondary source of minerals would cover the market demands, and maybe it wouldn't. We have no way of knowing. I'd rather not test that theory.

That moment when you realize the crazy lady with all the cats was right...

Dumbest idea I've ever seen, there is no need to get people out of high sec. Secondly it's already taxed in a sense that almost anything you can do in high sec, you can make 2x or more profit doing it in nullsec, which in a lot of cases is safer then highsec anyway.

I recently visited CCP's corporate website. They are very LOW PROFIT. Most of the money coming in goes back into game development. Minerals and market issues are small compared to the whining that would go on when CCP has to either raise prices or cut DEV's.
