Standing reqs for jump clones need to go. The only people that it affects are new players who aren't in big corps have access to clone bays or know about Estel Arador and such. If new players had easier access to jump clones perhaps they would be more willing to pvp and be less risk averse.

Perhaps they should join a corporation who will help them get the standing for a jump clone then.

Hell, they need only google jump clones, as a question on the forum, or ask a question in local/NPC Corp chat and they'll learn pretty fast the options available.

For regular access to jump clones, I think it is a decent idea to have the standings requirements, as they essentially provide instant travel from one area of the verse to the next (which I'm not a fan of!).

I think the standings are fine, by the time you need jump clones you should have the standings for them anyway, unless of course you did the pirate thing, and well, choices have consequences.

Don't see a problem with standing requirements as a semi-new player. It didn't take me any time at all to earn the required standing with two large NPC corps.

Are you a forum alt? Have you ever wondered why your experience on the forums is always so frustrating and unrewarding? This may help.

how much "easier access" can you get than "free access to anyone to install jumpclones at virtually any station in empire?"

"**CCP is changing policy, and has asked that we discontinue the bonus credit program after November 7th. So until then, enjoy a super-bonus of 1B Blink Credit for each 60-day GTC you buy!"**

Never forget.
