When was it interesting? Oh right - 5 years ago it was more interesting that high sec. 3 years ago you had more fun in Jita. 2 years ago missions became more interesting. Hell, ship spinning is more fun.

Anything could become boring if you do it long enough.

This man speaks truth. Imagine a real life game (basketball / football / baseball) where teams were allowed to bring an unlimited number of players to the field.

The issue is too much intel with little to no effort to get it. You can't take a **** without everyone knowing how much and what color it was in a matter of seconds.

Nullsec isn't so bad. It's the people who live there that make it bad.

That doesn't change anything. You can't stop people from playing together.


Oh yes you can, and you should, or enjoy the boredom that 0.0 has become.

We stop alliances from playing together.

Perhaps it was one reason, but I seriously doubt that it is the ONLY reason. Holding space is about more than just economic solvency when it comes to this game.

Free ourselves from the shackles of sov warfare.

"Become" boring? It hasn't been entertaining since the highsec miner scrubs ruined the economy.

Well although your argument holds truth EVE was never meant to be fair. The real problem is the ability of said blobs to project their power beyond physical and time limits of the universe.

We always (since 2003) had large blocks that dominated the area they resided in, but only after the capital ships and jump bridges were added has this become a problem.

0.0 hasn't become boring, it has become broken!

I'm not bored. But then again, I am an eccentric weirdo. So there you go.

By the way, since we're already talking, do you want to buy a rifter? I've got the cheapest rifters in Metropolis. If you can find a cheaper rifter, buy it!

There is, and always has been a reason to go to Null for profit, and nothing in the time I've been playing (over 3 years now) about that has changed...but there can't be any level of profit worth putting up with all the crap moving to null entails, nor the idiots that already populate null.

And that's the real problem...people.


Exactly. Even if 0.0 sec gave 10 times as much ISK as of today some people still would not have time for it nor would go there due to the many intentional annoying shortcomings and due to the populace.

Finally - but that's just a personal issue - I find it disturbing that the one most effective way to defeat opposition is to use very weak game mechanics and infiltrate them.
No "final mexican stand off" pew pew epic scenes but just a wet fart noise of POS shields being entered and stuff stolen (and then sov dropped / corp disbanded and whatsnot).

They live happy in there though.
Not because of the ISK but because of the lack all sorts of typical 0.0 idiocies and denizens.

I completely disagree. Nullsec local is the most efficient means of delivering pictures of women in various states of undress to as many people as possible, and is thus a vital part of all nullsec strategic operations. Removing local would be madness. Madness, I say!
