Definitely will be joining the boycott by doing something I absolutely detest... That's really going to show them.

Or maybe not. As stated by some others, these changes might not be what we've asked, but they will be shaking things up and making things interesting again. Will it be better or worse in the big picture? Who knows, but it sure wont be safe, nor does it need to be.

Thanks!


"The Game of Mass"
WHlers use the total mass limits of WHs to control the battlefield. In essence: if you win the game of mass you can fight groups that are much stronger than you.

"Roll Away"
You put enough mass through a wandering WH or K162 to close it. It is then gone.

"Roll the Static"
A method to force a new static into existence by putting enough mass through it so it collapses. A new static will spawn then. This serves various purposes:
- find targets that are active
- get a connection to a sieged WH you want to assist
- seed dreads into a specific WH
- find a logistic rout to HS.
- find ratting carriers (if you got a null static)...

All the nullsec nerdrage in here is amusing. I like how they turn into the epitome of irony. Safe isk? Ok..

1. All gates in k-space should have polarization timers.
2. All cyno's and jump bridges should act depending on mass.
3. 85+% of the ships in null sites should warp scramble and heavy neut.
4. Remove local.

You know.. 'to shake things up' cuz that's why changes should occur. Or wait, you'd all probably twitch, spasm and ragequit if those changes happened.

Whilst that would be completely fair then there would be two areas of space completely bolloxed.

Can they please take the manager who is thinking of these great new Psssssh ideas and lightly gift wrap him and drop him in the nearest post box? Do not bother including the return address.

I kinda miss the early days of being in SSC too, the bullshit free time of just going out there and wasting those proteuses of mine, and a bunch of opponents in the process. No nonsense of political crap or egos getting in the way of having fun.

Hell, let's really screw this up and just put ERRYONE like 15 km away from stargates!


OR, we could really screw things up and have your spawn distance from gates and cynos based on mass too!

Of course this would inconvenience the nullsec overlords and so it wont happen, but hey, if the stated intention of the mass changes is to shake things up, then by that same logic, this change should go in also.


Welcome to 100 trolls ago.


Trolls? I'm super serial!

No really, I think this change would shake things up, and give CCP another opportunity to show their stoicism in the face of near total, universal discontent with their proposed changes!


You are confusing the terms, "shake things up" and "frog in a liquidiser"

Thanks for the detailed reply, the proposed changes do look kinda crappy for you guys. Basically you could have dudes landing all over the place and swamp the defenders. What's to stop one of the big blocs just deciding to take advantage of these changes and roll over a bunch of WH's? Seems like the WH dudes are going to get screwed by these changes.
So if it takes blowing up incursion motherships and causing grief to the incursion folks to get attention, then plus 1 from me.

Again, it really comes down to holes taking forever to roll now, even with a decent fleet.

I really doubt CCP would give a rat's a$$ (no pun intended) about an incursion griefing protest. A Jita sit-in might work though.
