Then a few not too clever people decided to call for nerfing to sanctums even thought they knew it would lead to massive migration to high sec. Now we know that around 50% of people living in 0.0 left. Thats a BIG percentage. Now you are all crying cos you see too few people. To all of you that voted for the nerf, GOOD PLAN!

First of all, that nerf wasn't something anyone outside of CCP had any chance of voting on or even have any say about, it was literally just announced with "this is how the anoms are going to change because they're having an adverse effect on the economy".

If they'd been nerfed back to 60m/h or so, and hisec's finest moneymaking activity was at 10m/hour, chances are the people who left nullsec for L4s wouldn't have left nullsec. Why? Because the anoms would be worth the extra hassle over hisec missions etc. Hell, even incursions would probably still be run at 40m/h if normal missions were 10m/h.

Just face it, L4s have set a dangerously high minimum reward requirement, and the pubbies are so indoctrinated with them making that much in perfect safety that it's highly problematic to make any changes of this nature.


let say you are correct which you are not but lets say you still are...
are you that stupid not to think that they are gonna go wormhole next? If so, are you gonna ask for that to be nerfed too? then whats next to be nerfed. please stop this stupidity now!

YOU ARE NOT GONNA FORCE PEOPLE INTO 0.0! You are never gonna be able to do that. You need to entice people and not nerf things to hell!

Very few are talking about forcing, but a lot of people are talking about enticing.

A lot of nullsec people are, today, not bothering with shooting red crosses in the nullsec systems where they live, because it's a much safer and more chill way of making almost the same amount of money to just do L4s. When CCP buffed anoms to the point where the nullsec guys did shoot red crosses in the nullsec systems where they lived, CCP panicked because of the effect it was having on the economy, they were literally spewing forth too much isk.

Now, apparently there's still too much isk entering the economy, and bounties are the biggest part of this. It's still to the point where they're starting to increase various taxes to try to curb the monetary inflation. vOv
