So we've been working out of ECs for the past many months and still we cannot lock down BPOs from rogue directors. As our corp has lost 210bil to a rogue director, the amount of tinfoil and arse-biting means I cannot promote any new directors as we have over 500bil of BPOs in a locked down hangar.
We'd really appreciate it if you could do this simple function in EC's so we can promote new directors to replace the burned out ones in our corp.
Thanks.

PS - Also posted in Reddit under /u/ledeanio - apologies for duplication, but I do think this small change would make a massive difference

BPO lock-down was never really secure (re: Bad Bobby and Titans4U), nor was it without bugs.

It was also extremely tedious for large collections, and lock-down in containers wasn't possible, causing one to hit the item-count limit.

Lock-down would mean CCP keeping the shares and voting system, which I think they may want to scrap.

I also would like a way to secure my BPO collection, but share it with the corp as well, without having to give it to the corp (in a corp hangar).

This is Eve. In a game supposedly about player relations and trust, I think this is a terrible idea. There need to be more opportunities for corp mates and alliance mates to betray each other.

Great idea. I dont see why you should be able to do it in a EC.

I could not agree more, this whole thread is a disgrace. Learn to secure your assets the hard way. Don't trust your corp leadership? Get a new corp or start one.

EVE is about backstabbing, spying, and sabotage. If you can't live with that, or learn to function around it succesfully, biomass your chars and go play space engineers.

The whole meta has shifted towards safety & preventing theft and betrayal recently and a change like this would be just one more nail in the coffin.

I'm just reading this over and over and all I'm getting is:

"I want to share with my friends, but without actually sharing because I can't trust them"

"I want assets usable by my corp members, but they can't have access to them while the use them"

There are serious logic errors in both.
