Either way that's a lot of morons migrating to one system and out of the general populace.

I actually struggle to see what Thera is good for.
- Obviously not PVE.
- PVP looks pretty stupid there; seems like there are lot better places to PVP.
- Some people said "base for a raiding fleet" but give how risky this is to use stations and that most WH exit are in high with only few in 0.0. It doesn't look so practical.

So my guess is that people are going because it's new (reason #2 above) but in the end, it will be a few people there staying for epeen (reason #1). Which is good because a few less epeen-minded people in the rest of EVE helps us all!

Don't like how Thera currently works? Form a Thera Police corp, recruit in members, fly around and pop people camping stations.

Work out arrangements with freighter corps to provide escort for their goods for a nice fee. Ally with the larger WH corps that they'll provide backup as needed while in system but doing so provides them with a safe haven of trade and clones.

Watch it all blow up from time to time as no-fire agreements get broken or nullsec alliances swarm the place and lock it down for a time until they get bored and leave.

lol or just ignore Thera and not bother will all the work because you can make more easy money in 1000+ other systems.

That's not EVE online doing that it's being bored at work which is causing it.

I don't know why you'd think it's not PVE friendly. If you can seed that market you're golden.

I totally agree with this. EVE could use more "grease trap" systems like this.

Isn't Thera the testbed for the afk-cloaky-slash-remove-local nullsec fix?

You are correct sir it is not.

However I am willing to bet at some point some moron will inevitably bring a 20 billion isk faction fitted battleship in for missions. Only to be bombed into oblivion before even getting a chance to enter warp from the entrance gate.

Sansha incursion

Seriously - incursion fleets you cannot BLOPS/Cap drop and NPC AI that welcomes new targets...

Hmmm (DANGER: RP/LORE post incoming)

I wonder why Sansha has not tried to take over Thera? You'd think they would see the value of this target?

Bring back DEEEEP Space!

Thera = Market.

The forums are just a distraction to keep people from pushing items there.

In reality, the best idea would be to stockpile as much as you can there *now* ...
... before the major onslaught of people who want to cash in on this and prices tank.

The ones earning most are those providing the locals with ships and modules right now.


And the best part about the new industry ...
... is that everyone can build anywhere and a cost naturally balances local industry.

Assuming it's balanced here, that is.

"Thera not pve friendly!"





WHAT
THE
HELL
DID
YOU
EXPECT!?!?!?!?

As someone who can easily be classified as a carebear, I figured Thera would be a hot spot for "A shot Z because of 12" shenanigans. I know what i just said makes no sense... it doesn't have to. THIS IS EvE! You have how many tens of thousands of players on the same server at any given time from all over the world. Any one of them could on a whim, try something new, come across someone doing pve in Thera, and decide to start shooting, simply because they might never have shot at another player before and want to know what it's like. More than likely someone is coming out of this encounter minus their ship and fitting at MINIMUM. Welcome to the sandbox, where someone who never stomped down a sandcastle just stomped yours and decided they liked stomping sand castles. Do you cry and scream? Do you build a better sand castle? Or maybe you put on a disguise and ask them to teach you the art of "Castle Stomping"...

^^^THIS IS EvE.

if anything, they will crunch numbers and do math and if it makes sense, open a thera - J space - K space division.


personally, i think that's a tall order.
