What stops you from just packing up your citadel/revoking rights from everyone else to do anything there?

Nothing stops me doing that, people would have to trust me, as time goes on i'm sure people will trust me. Saying that i'm pretty sure there's already a lot of people that trust me enough to seed the citadel.


Get Chribba or other players with +5.1 (or bigger) security status on this and ppl will trust even your trade post.

I would be in as an investor (5 billion) and a member of the guard fleet.

Instead of being totally broker free, I would recommend a small broker fee (.5%). It would first be used to pay fuel costs and such and once you had a 3 month reserve, the amount over that would be split among initial investors (minimum 1 billion invested). This would encourage buy-in by most merchants on the off chance that the citadel market is a big hit. The fact they would get a cut of the broker would encourage them to move their trading to the citadel. This might be the push necessary to get market citadel to critical mass.

Ultimately, if items for sale in a Citadel are not visible from the normal Regional Market and you can not place regional buy orders in a Citadel, it will be a very steep slope to get people to come and buy/sell at them.

Is there official word on these matters?

I heard that in the scc-lounge chat channel in game.
